Review in Fullness:

Gee Its my first time doing a movie review of such standard :)

This show really amazes me. My first thought was it should be just a regular nice romantic comedy with good [ and i mean good ] laughs with occasional oohs-and-ahhs-and-awwww ... Goosebumps. Just like 50 First date. Adam Sandler acts in it too :)

No it isn't that simple. And that's why this show deserves its full credit! Men the previous romantic comedy [ I Do I Do ] really makes me wanna puke. I get the wrong kind of goosebumps. [ you know ... the kind when people tell you horrible cold jokes :P]. This show scores a high point because its more than just a romantic comedy. There is warmness in this show. Really. Because the character development in this show is awesome. You can really see the different personality of the characters in this show. Don't worry my reviews will not contain much spoilers. [^^ maybe alittle ]. Just plain opinions from me. :)

This show isn't about BGR. Its not simply about boy meet girl. Boy woo girl. Boy gets girl. Boy that's so routine. Basically the story starts with a little girl's compo about her mom. Then it takes on from there to show you alittle world of family and relationships. The mom works as a housekeeper for an American family. The fun part about this is the mom speaks spanish and doesn't know English. So the communication between the 2 sides becomes really funny and interesting. What makes this show good is that it shows how people handle relationships. Whether you'll learn to deal with it, or let the relationship deal with you. And that's how it is in the world today. We are slowly forgetting that we have the power over ourselves and over certain situations within our control. When lust come into play ... would you choose to let it run over you or be a master over it? You'll understand what i mean after you watch the show. Its not just enriching, but it actually mirrors the reality of this world. It is a very heartwarming show because eventually ... the show evolved from the sweet scents of temporal lust ... to the overpowering love of a family. And men i tell you that moves you ...

Final Verdict [By me!] : 9/10.
Go catch it. Its worth that deal of money from the experience you get from it.
Best to watch it with your loved ones cuddled beside you at night ^^

i cuddled my bag :P





Well that's the highlight of the day...

Tomorrow i have to go back to work. I wonder if that order is a violation of SAF rule. Becauase currently its suppose to be a 5 day week and if we are called back unnecessarily, we should be given free offs. Currently it doesn't work that way here because we are clerks. We are called to clear up mountain of record errors which means i have to cancel my plans tomorrow to meet up with my 1st 3 months ex-03s53 dudes [ to send vivi off]. What a spoiler. Guess it's the reality of life. Plans sometimes don't always go in motion...

Deal with it.
