Ehehehehehe!!!

Wishing you a joyful and wonderful Christmas this year from both of us.

Ivan & Joanne

I have just watched Ip Man. Before this I was curious which is the proper way of pronouncing the title. Some pronounced it as “I-P MAN” and some said it as “Eep Man”. For those of you who have watched the movie, you will know that the real pronounciation is actually “Yip Man”.

I won’t reveal much about the scene in the movie as some of you might not have watch the movie yet. So go and check it out yourself if you want to know more about the storyline. Overall, I would say that I am satisfied with the whole movie. I give a thumbs-up on the actions choreographed. I enjoyed all the fight scene showed in the movie as it was shot in details and no so much of camera tricks.

For the gals who do not fancy much on a martial arts movie, not to worry much. There are a few scenes which is quite hilarious. Besides, some of the scene have some sentimental value in it too. It did touch a lil’ bit about the history of China when it was invaded by Japan.

To compare this movie against Jet Li’s Fearless ((霍元甲 Huo Yuan Jia) which both also talked about legendary figther, Ip Man is much better.

If you want to find out more, check out the trailer of Ip Man here.

Oh by the way, the picture below is the real Ip Man who spread the arts of Wing Chun openly. And guess what? Bruce Lee is also one of his students! If you want to know more about the history if Ip Man and Wing Chun, you can go to the following sites:

Got myself a tote bag from Forever 21 which I really satisfied and baby bought me a pair of Nike shoes in “gold”. LOL! But trust me, it’s really comfy.

Charles & Keith are having sales too. Did hop in to try on a pair of heels which I like. But too bad, the size is a lil’ bit too big for me even it’s the smallest one. So ladies, drop by to Charles & Keith, they got discount up to 50% which is damn worth it!
