dam lazy to sieve through my 1001 philippine trip photos.. so decided to blog abt my other bday celebrations first.. hehe
::30th June 2012, Saturday::
Met up with my "cousin" (actually, niece) chicky together with my sis for our yearly traditional bday celebrations! everytime its one of our bday, we will meet up for a meal and the bday girl will hafta treat..
this time round, i was deciding between wild honey, tonkatsu by ma maison and ippudo cuz i haven dined @ the revamped mandarin gallery before! (yes, mountain tortise i know) so we went to put our name at wild honey's waiting list first.. was told the waiting time wld be 1 hr.. then we went to ippudo to queue but it looked like it'd be a long wait.. so we went to tonkatsu which seated us almost immediately! yay~
yay! there's a new cartoon by Disney.Pixar that's coming to the cinemas soon - BRAVE!
I'm sucha fan of Disney.Pixar's cartoons! we all know that they are of such good quality. Think Monster Inc., Cars, UP... all were soooo good!
This time round, Disney.Pixar is bringing us BRAVE. For those who have not already heard of it (hard not to la, what with all the advertising that has already been going arnd!), here's a lil sypnosis:
Brave is a tale of the courageous Merida (voice of Kelly Macdonald) who confronts tradition, destiny and the fiercest of beasts. Merida is a skilled archer and impetuous daughter of King Fergus (voice of Billy Connolly) and Queen Elinor (voice of Emma Thompson).
Determined to carve her own path in life, Merida defies an age-old custom sacred to the uproarious lords of the land: massive Lord MacGuffin (voice of Kevin McKidd), surly Lord Macintosh (voice of Craig Ferguson) and cantankerous Lord Dingwall (voice of Robbie Coltrane).
Merida’s actions inadvertently unleash chaos and fury in the kingdom, and when she turns to an eccentric old Wise Woman (voice of Julie Walters) for help, she is granted an ill-fated wish. The ensuing peril forces Merida to discover the meaning of true bravery in order to undo a beastly curse before it’s too late.
Don't like words? here's the movie trailer for those who prefer visuals:
Merida is sucha heroine! Makes me think of the heroine in my life - my mum!
Don't mean for it to sound cliche, but my mum has gotta be one of the most fearless women I know. She is afraid of almost nothing - being alone in the dark, driving in the rain, possible ghost sightings, cockcroaches, lizards etc etc... all of which her daughter (me sadly) is afraid of.. lol..
One incident that I can remember most vividly where she was SO brave was when there was a lizard that was in my cup! She could actually hold the cup with her bare hands and bring it outdoors to release the lizard.. Me? I didn't even dare go near the cup! Really thankful to have sucha fearless mum and my life would not be the same without her!
Got a heroine in your life too? Thank her by bringing her to catch Brave!
