Watched "Secret" with Clement last night or should I say this morning? ;p

Watched "Secret" with Clement last night or should I say, this morning? ;p


Due to Clement's unpredictable work schedule & as filming can sometimes end later than expected due to unforseen circumstances.. ( which happens 95% of the time )..

He knocked off work later than the expected time..

When we left Mediacorp, it was already 12am & by the time we reached The Cathay, it was already 12.30am, which means we have already missed half of the movie that had started at 11.30pm.

Thus we decided to get the tickets for the 1.10am movie..

Fortunately for us, The Cathay's Box Office was still opened.. ( The Cathay's Box Office opens till past midnight on weekends ) :)

We managed to catch the 1.10am screening..

The movie was very very nice! :)

There's humour, romance, suspense, fantasy, very touching moments, with a twist towards the end..

I thoroughly enjoyed it! :)

Will definitely purchase the soundtrack.. :)

Most of the piano pieces played in the movie sounded easy enough.. Most of them were composed or improvised, that's for sure.. As I don't remember any of them as Chopin's waltzes..

Of course, watching Jay play those piano pieces certainly brought back lotsa memories for me..

Remembering all those years of me practising on my piano.. those pieces I played by Bach, Beethoven, Vivaldi, Mozart, Chopin.. ( My favourite composer is definitely Mozart ) :)

When I watched the movie, I knew exactly what they were studying & talking about.. "Augmented.. Diminished.. bar chords.. Baroque, Classical, Romantic, Modern period".. etc etc etc..

I took piano studies for so many years of my life..

Proudly declare I finished all 8 grades of my piano studies donkey years ago! :)

I'm impressed by Jay's creativity as a director & producer..

He did an awesome job! :)

I definitely wanna watch that movie again! ;)

( Clement definitely has to watch it again some other day.. He slept thru' half of the screening! Poor fella.. he was so sleepy.. :/ )

After the movie, we "tawned" thru the night..

We went for a drink & "breakfast" at the nearby KOPITIAM foodcourt..

After which we took a stroll down to the Merlion park & watched the dawn break..

It was an unforgettable experience for both of us, as it was a rare opportunity for both our busy lives .. :)

We headed for home around 8plus in the morning..

And I've not slept a wink till now.. ;p
