Is that interesting that some company will give you MLK day off while the other ones do the President's day? I haven't heard any private company give both day off, however. I guess that is what the floating holiday is for.
Our nanny was able to help us out on MLK day so we sneak out for a few hours to watch a movie. Believe me, after you have kids, it become a true luxury to watch movie in the theater especially if you don't have extended families in the area. I wish I had chosen some other movie. This movie is a bit serious and a bit heavy. I admit it is a good movie, granted that Jeff Bridge's performance impeccable,
and Hailee Steinfeld as young Mattie Ross is so charming, but I don't like the movie, much like the way that I don't like Hemingway's books. I also felt the ending of the movie unnecessary. Another problem? The heavy accent in the dialogue, although adds the details a classic movie has, is very difficult to understand for a non-native speaker like me. Overall, not my cup of tea. I guess it is Oscar season, brainless movie usually come out in the summer.
I did however get to watch a really funny Indi movie call "Outsourced" on netflix this weekend and the title summarize the story plot fairly well. It is very light hearted. I wonder if someone from India would think it is funny. Unfortunately none of my Indian co-worker had watched it.

Oh, this skirt is so pretty! It looks great with the blue skirt and cashmere sweater. And where is your purse from, I really like it!
ReplyDeleteI love this look on you! All of the pieces work together so nicely!
ReplyDeleteSweet Landry: The purse is the Marc by Marc Jacobs Classic Q Baby Groove Satchel. It comes with many colors and sells very fast seems. I originally wanted a wine color but settle for the yellow when that color sold out, but now i like the yellow even more. The leather is butterly soft. Hope you get to have one. You will love it.
ReplyDeleteLyzi: thanks. This is a pretty skirt. I am glad I was able to find my size when it was on sale especially during the additional 25% off time.
I thought "Outsourced" was hilarious as well --but I am curious to know whether anyone found it offensive.
ReplyDeleteAnd you look great in the Glowing Leaf. The first day we have here over 45 degrees, I'll be pulling mine out!
