there was CO practice today followed by a truncated sectional practice. not surprising of cos, since mr shen is not around to "control" us, resulting in the lackadaisical attitude that somebody had.
after that, xuguang and daniel went back to VS as VSCO was having an exchange programme with RGSCO. i was interested to go back too to see wad's the state of VSCO now, but i had agreed with wY and cY to watch a movie after practice. originally planned to watch ocean's twelve, but it turned out that we watched a world without thieves, starring andy lau and rene liu and guest(?) starring ge you.
a world without thieves got a double A rating by zaobao's movie critics. that means a well balanced commercial arthouse flick. it's a nice movie, with beautiful scenery, superb acting and of cos spoken mandarin with heavy china slang. the majority of the production crew are chinese nationals. and i must agree that the soundtracks are a bit old fashioned, although the lyrics convey the message well. its story is based on a book, maybe i'll consider reading it. i knew andy lau was going to die in the end before entering the cinema, as a result of watching too much entertainment news... haha, so kinda killed the excitement for me. the sadness does not end there though... :'(
