Short Movie Filler Day - Balance

This film (directed and produced by Wolfgang and Christoph Lauenstein) won the Oscar for Best Animated Short in 1990.

Using only animation and sound, without words, this short film's a telling tale about the nature of greed and selfishness.

Gung Hay Fat Choy - Happy Chinese New Year!!!


Given that I'm Chinese and given that I get money out this holiday, I guess I'm somewhat obligated to wish everyone a Happy Chinese New Year.

For those of you who wanna know more about what Chinese New Year is all about, just visit the wiki about it here (click "here").

This year's the Year of the Rat, so all of you who were born in this Chinese zodiac year, best wishes to you.

As for me, I'm just gonna sit back and enjoy all that fancy red evelope action that I get this year(as you see above) and hopefully spend the money on something sweet (probably paying bills). All in all, it's fair to say that being Chinese definitely comes with its perks.

Gung Hay Fat Choy to everyone and to everyone a Happy Gung Hay Fat Choy (yeah, it's not really proper to say it that way, but hey...it's poetic license)!!!!

Below is a reading of an excerpt from "Gift from the Sea" by Anne Morrow Lindbergh. It's very wonderful book that's not only well written, but also poetically crafted.

A Super Bowl Super Meditation

Just this weekend I watched the Super Bowl with a couple of the guys over at my cousin's place. Obviously, since we were practically all from NJ, we rooted for the Giants.

Personally, I never followed football. And to be honest, I never really saw the point of it to begin with. But for some reason, this Super Bowl actually had me enthralled. Maybe I'm starting to get it and maybe I'm not, but last Sunday's experience brought up a good point when it comes to living life.

Yes, people have their favorites and some things can be person's cup of tea, while other things can't. There's nothing wrong with that. But the point is, whether you may prefer one thing over the other, the secret to life is finding some degree of joy in everything no matter how "not you" that thing might be. This of course comes with exceptions, like one shouldn't try to find joy in senseless evil and such. And of course, this doesn't mean that you should always pretend that everything in the world is beautiful, while turning a blind eye to the things that are wrong with it.

But taking this ideal in, while being realistic ad practical, is a real healthy practice to learn. Too bad, I'm still a long way from learning it. GO GIANTS!!!

Too Much Coffee Man Installment

Sorry for the delay, but I got a little caught up in a recent writing gig that I took up just the other week. Anyway, today's installment is light on the humor, but deep in the meaning. Says a lot about the world we live in. Again, to enlarge the comic, simply click on it. Enjoy!

Short Movie Filler Day - Tomorrow's Memior

Today's another short movie filler day and the movie that I have for you is a fairly long one (about 27 minutes). But in my personal opinion, it's worth every minute. This movie is about a man who's haunted by the secrets of his past. As he wanders through the city, more light is shed onto his identity and the burden that he carries. Can any of you guess who this man is? For my personal review of this film, follow this link.
