here are my reviews of the movies i watched this month:</div>
<div dir="ltr">
* <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0790724/">jack reacher</a></div>

<div dir="ltr">
<br /></div>
<div dir="ltr">
an action movie where tom cruise plays mr. tough guy to solve a crime that actually involves something bigger. action-filled. exciting. somewhat predictable. ehh, it was entertaining ;)</div>
<div dir="ltr">
<br /></div>
<div dir="ltr">
* <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1276419/">a royal affair</a></div>
<div dir="ltr">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.techscreens.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/a-royal-affair.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://www.techscreens.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/a-royal-affair.jpg" height="400" width="400" /></a></div>

<div dir="ltr">
i had added this to my netflix list without knowing much about it. it was during watching the movie that i looked it up online and learned that this danish movie won the 2013 academy awards and 2013 golden globe award for best foreign language film (among many other awards). set in the 18th century, it's about the triangular relationship between king christian vii of denmark, his wife, and the royal doctor. it is a long movie, made easier to watch with the pretty costumes, exciting plot twists and turns, and beautiful scenery. the actress is also so pretty. i would recommend it to anyone who likes period dramas.</div>
<div dir="ltr">
<br /></div>
<div dir="ltr">
* <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1024648/?ref_=nv_sr_1">argo</a></div>
<div dir="ltr">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div dir="ltr">
<br /></div>
<div>
i kinda put off watching this movie because, since it won best picture, i thought of course it would be a serious and long and dry movie. and yes, it was a serious and long movie, but it was not dry at all. in short, it tells the story of the american cia specialist trying to save the lives of 6 americans from iran by passing them off as a film crew, "argo" being the title of the fake movie. once you read up on the plot (during the movie) and understand the political background of it, it makes more sense (at least to me) and becomes a really good movie. i can totally understand why it won best picture. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
* <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1139328/?ref_=nv_sr_1">the ghost writer</a></div>

this movie is about a ghost writer finding out the truth about his employer. i didn't exactly enjoy or not enjoy this movie - it was just meh. </div>

<div>
this was a mellow movie about a successful but emotionally-devoid actor learning how to grow up and be a dad. it was kinda flat, in that there really wasn't a climax or a problem persay, but it was more of a feel-good movie. you watch it, you think about it, and you oddly have a "that was okay, that was decent" feeling. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>

i really didn't mean to watch a second <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000191/?ref_=tt_ov_st">ewan mcgregor</a> movie this month but it happened. i was iffy about him before, but this movie made him adorable as a lost and sad son who recently lost his dad (who came out of the closet at age 75) finding and accepting love. i also love the actress <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0491259/?ref_=tt_ov_st">melanie laurent</a> - she is so pretty!</div>

<br /></div>
<div>
i knew this movie had something to do with a young guy dealing with cancer, but it was totally not what i expected. it was heartwarming, funny, touching. not to mention, there are <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0330687/?ref_=tt_ov_st">joseph gordon-levitt</a> <i>and</i> <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0447695/?ref_=tt_ov_st">anna kendrick</a>! (i like <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0736622/?ref_=nv_sr_1">seth rogen</a> too but he wasn't the draw to this movie)</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
i'm also trying to read more so here is what i read this month:</div>
<div>
* <a href="http://www.amazon.com/The-Husbands-Secret-Liane-Moriarty/dp/0399159347">the husband's secret</a></div>
<div>
* <a href="http://www.amazon.com/The-Minor-Adjustment-Beauty-Salon/dp/0307378411">the minor adjustment beauty salon</a> (book 14 of no. 1 ladies' detective agency series)</div>
<div>

as january comes to a close, i look back and realize, it hasn't been feeling like january at all here in los angeles. while the rest of the nation has been dealing with the polar vortex, and while my facebook feeds have been filled with pictures of snow from other parts of the US, it's been cold in mornings and nights but spring/summer-like during the days. maybe that's why i'm refusing to accept that january is almost over.<br />

<div dir="ltr">
* was horribly sick for 3 almost 4 months<br />
* got a lucky bag from my in-laws<br />
* work got busier and busier, crazier and crazier<br />
* went to <a href="http://www.lawrysonline.com/">lawry's</a> to celebrate jason's visit back to town (and was somewhat not too impressed with the food)<br />
* hiking with h<br />
* reconnected while hiking with jen who was also back in town</div>
<div dir="ltr">
* watched a free movie screening for <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1361318/">good people</a><br />
* 4-5 hour dinner and catching up with two of my favorite people cay and ada (with h)</div>
<div dir="ltr">
* said goodbye to iphone and welcomed an android phone</div>
<div dir="ltr">
<br /></div>
<div dir="ltr">
i realize that my most treasured moments lie in hanging out with those i love and connecting in new ways, not so much in having new fancy things. you would think that's how everyone feels but i think that's just what everyone says, not necessarily how they act.</div>

he's sorta like a mini-hero in my world.<br />

ever since we started getting into <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1520211/">walking dead</a>, hubs and i have been captivated by zombies (he more than i, a lot more). we've seen <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0816711/">world war z</a> (and liked it), but a much lighter and more entertaining (and possibly bloodier) option for those not so much into zombies would be <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1156398/">zombieland</a>.<br />
<br />
the story goes that mad cow disease became mad person became mad zombie. the movie follows 4 characters - a dorky student, a redneck, and 2 con-woman sisters - in their travels to look for a zombie-free place. but of course, there is no such thing. and of course, there is lots of zombie-head-bashing, gun-firing madness. (and by madness i mean fun-ness.)<br />

<br />
my fav character is tallahassee played by <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000437/?ref_=tt_cl_t2">woody harrelson</a>. he's such a bad-ass that he reminds me of a combination of both meryl and darryl from walking dead. and he's just so fun. i also love the actress <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1113550/">abigail breslin</a> in general (although i'm not sure what to make of her now that she's so grown up...).<br />
<br />
genre: action/comedy (it's also tagged under horror but i wouldn't consider it as such)<br />
big names: <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0251986/?ref_=tt_cl_t1">jesse eisenberg</a>, <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000437/?ref_=tt_cl_t2">woody harrelson</a>, <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1297015/?ref_=tt_cl_t3">emma stone</a>, <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1113550/?ref_=tt_cl_t4">abigail breslin</a>, <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000195/?ref_=tt_cl_t6">bill murray</a><br />
stars: 3 out of 5 for action, entertainment, and brain-free fun (excuse the pun hehe)Lyndahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15502168331651670305noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4954874950094942062.post-58131809227088877592013-12-13T06:10:00.000-08:002013-12-13T06:10:00.829-08:00fab five Friday {12/13}this is my feeble attempt to restart blogging...<br />
<br />
...and here are some things that made my week. no, actually, my recent days.<br />
<br />
1. shabu (almost) everyday. it's been really, really, really cold.<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

my pulled-pork sandwich turned out to be more like a burger, and hub's three meat omelette was so speechlessly delicious that he didn't even leave me a bite to try. the food was so good but the portions were too just-right. and honestly, the service wasn't as stellar as the first time we went. but we still had a good time.<br />

time: 1 hour r/t (we didn't finish obviously)<br />
<br />
according to hub's <a href="http://www.fitbit.com/">fitbit</a> (a pedometer/calorie counter type of thing), we...<br />
...took 7,517 steps<br />
...hiked 3.28 miles<br />
...burned 1,208 calories<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
1. went shopping and scored 2 skirts + 2 dresses for $27.50. you can't beat that.<br />
<br />
<br />
2. had lunch with my family last weekend. this was the lunch special - all for $9.95!<br />

Plus Fab Five Friday {6/21}i can't believe i've neglected this blog for so long. six months to be exact!! so much has happened in my time away that it's incredulous. but, in the end, they turned out (or will turn out) all okay.<br />
<br />
here are the things I've been obsessed with in the last (few) weeks:<br />
<br />
1. <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scandal_(TV_series)">scandal</a> :: if you've watched it, you know what i'm talking about. if you haven't seen it, what are you waiting for??<br />
<br />
<br />
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>
<tr><td style="text-align: center;"><span style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><a href="http://www.chicagonow.com/pimps-preachers-politicians/2012/04/scandal-bringing-intelligent-drama-back-to-television/"><img border="0" height="266" src="http://www.chicagonow.com/pimps-preachers-politicians/files/2012/04/scandal-abc-tv-show-624x416.jpg" width="400" /></a></span></td></tr>
<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><i><a href="http://www.chicagonow.com/pimps-preachers-politicians/2012/04/scandal-bringing-intelligent-drama-back-to-television/">courtesy of chicagonow</a></i></td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<br />
<br />
2. some much needed catching-up with some old friends, even if they were via texts and emails ::<br />
<br />
<br />
3. these <a href="http://www.belvitabreakfast.com/">belvita</a> breakfast biscuits :: they tastes more like cookies (to me) and they keep me quite full in the morning when i drink water or tea with them. not the mmm-i'm-so-stuffed-i-can't-eat-another-bite full, but more like the i'm-okay-i-can-wait-another-hour-or-two-until-lunch full. they did nothing for my husband though so maybe it depends on the person. i like them cuz they take the work out of planning, buying, and making breakfast. i just keep a box at work and eat it when i get there! (alternated with other foods)<br />
<br />
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>
<tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.sweettmakesthree.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/BelVita-Breakfast-Biscuits.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="300" src="http://www.sweettmakesthree.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/BelVita-Breakfast-Biscuits.jpg" width="400" /></a></td></tr>

</tbody></table>
<br />
<br />
4. <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1853728/">django unchained</a> :: an over-the-top, somewhat-gory flick that i ended up liking more than i thought i would. the husband enjoyed it too. and after having watched scandal, i like <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0913488/">kerry washington</a> a lot more than if i had watched this movie first, i think.<br />
<br />

5. these flats my friend frickin' gave me! they are now one of my most favorite pair of shoes. they are comfy, they are cute, and they have leopard print on them. LEOPARD PRINT! need i say more?<br />

so i will do my best (again) to keep this blog going. it's harder where i live now because i don't really have my own desk/table anymore, and with everything going on, time feels really limited. everyday seems like a struggle sometimes but some days are better than others. we'll see how it goes ;)Lyndahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15502168331651670305noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4954874950094942062.post-30578631934484099892012-12-19T09:46:00.000-08:002012-12-19T09:46:00.092-08:00Random Picture Wednesday {12/19}<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>
