James Bond is not that Bad.

I used to think that my dad’s tastes for movies were odd. James Bond ? Pfft. It’s only gunshots, stunts and women, actually, that’s what I thought until I watched Quantum of Solace. There was a story under the action, and a very good one on top of that !

Quantum raised the question of water availability in third world countries, in that movie, it was Bolivia as an example, but it could be any other country. Cost to get to water, people unable to afford it, monopoly of the water market…

Quantum also talks about government, dictatorships and money in exchange of power over a nation. Revenge, murder, love, name them. They’re all a part of the movie.

It was deeper than only gunshots, even though there was loads of them. I liked it !!!

The Pink Thing !!!


The Pink Thing !!!, originally uploaded by brindegazon.

Ok, so let me introduce you to... THE PINK THING ! I received it this morning...

I unwrapped it as soon as the delivery guy was gone. I was soooo excited ! So this is m gift to myself, for being able to loose like 25 pounds and being able to keep on going even though I'm struggling.

I also got my Wii and Wii Fit. Spent an hour having fun with my balance board in m living room. I probably looked like a retard, but I really did enjoy myself =)
