I was tagged by Jan, so here goes!
1. Last movie you saw in a cinema?
Batman: The Dark Knight. I enjoyed Batman Begins so was interested to see whether The Dark Knight with Heath Ledger as Joker would live up to the hype. News of Heath Ledger's death was huge in Australia since Heath was from Perth! The movie was sooo long, 2.5 - 3 hours long I think. Very dramatic and definitely not the usual comic movie i.e. X Men, Ironman (which I loved). I thought Heath was really very good as the Joker, very twisted, scary (when he licked his lips *shudder*) and yet human. I couldn't quite decide whether I liked the movie, but I kept thinking about it till the next day so I guess that's a yes?
2. What book are you reading?
My office lunchtime reading is the latest copy of Reader's Digest. But the last book I read was The Fengshui Detective by Nury Vittachi which is very funny and easy reading. It's about CF Wong a 50+ Chinese Fengshui master who is located in Singapore, CF is forced to take on a 17 year old personal assistant who's an Aussie girl, both of them solve crime mysteries together with the use of fengshui. He tries to learn English from her 'it'll be a piece of cake' 'you want a piece of cake?' and he speaks a mixture of Cantonese 'mo ban fatt' , Malay ' teruk lah!' and solves crimes in locations like Hongkong, KL and even Sarawak!
There's a whole series of these Fengshui detective books but I can't find them in Australia, must try to look for them in Taiwan or Singapore.
Pictionary too, just like Jan! I still remember playing with my siblings back in Kuching, was it Darren who was trying to draw the nail polish and he kept saying 'that nail pricker thing, nail pricker!'
4. Favourite magazine?
Is Reader's Digest a magazine? Probably not. I don't read magazines anymore since I decided they were a waste of money.
5. Favourite smells?
The smell of freshly baked bread/pastries. The 'washed' air after a thunderstorm.

Big band sound. Piano. I like Ah Pa playing the organ on Sunday mornings.

Looking in the mirror and feeling a deep sense of self loathing.
