I saw this film at the closing night screening of Screen Singapore 2012.  It stars Singapore actor Aniu and Hong Kong actresses Elanne Kwong and Kara Hui.

I didn't get to see the original "Wedding Diary" til I was on my way home to HK on the plane, but since I watched this first I'll review it first.

Sting in Hong Kong 2012!

Last night I had the chance to check out Sting live in concert at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Center.  His "Back to Bass" Tour was making a stop in town and I was lucky enough to get my hands on a ticket. 

He's playing the Bass... hence the title of the tour! :-P

I can't say I am the biggest Sting fan in the world.... I haven't bought any of his...Read more

Asian Movie Review: Tai Chi Hero (太極2英雄崛起, 2012)

Bike Shopping in Shenzhen (plus iPhone 5 cases!)

Last weekend my friend Nat and I went up to Shenzhen.  I used to go almost every weekend but with all my travels the last year I go much less often lately.  

The main reason I wanted to go was to check out if they were selling any iPhone 5 cases and accessories,  and the main reason Nat wanted to go was to look and see what kind of bikes were on sale over there.  (because we've been going biking so much, he's thinking about getting his own...)
