OMG, it was the best local movie I have ever watched in my whole life!!!! I seriously don't mind watching it again, maybe buy the DVD for my mama to watch. I think she will also cry when she watch it... Not just because it is touching but I think my mama miss this place that she calls home too...

I cried buckets near the end and felt really dehydrated because I didn't drink the Sprite much after I got too engrossed in the movie... Listening to the dialogue in Hokkien and finding tt I can understand most of them w/o reading the subtitles made me feel so proud can?? Feel like a true Singaporean!! But the dialogue was mostly simple and straightforward...

Listening to the aunties talk loudly and in Hokkien reminds me of when my mama was still living here with us and the way she used to joke and talk with my 2 aunties... Especially the dirty jokes tt my aunties told each other and made my mama laugh so hard tt her face turns red, cannot open her eyes and her hand is pressed to her chest as though she needs tt hand to hold her body up if not she will end up rolling on the floor laughing...

I think I will miss Singapore more than I miss Japan where ever I may go. I miss my mama too. I love my home and everything tt this place gave me.
