Bodyworks



Initially may seem scary but after a while u just focus on the scientific element of these real dead people..

A good experience for all to see what's really inside/behind the skin.. btw, that 'person' is holding up his own skin..

Julie and Julia - movie

Really liked this movie about cooking, life and love! And how the director blends two persons lives from different times into a single seamless thread of storytelling..

Also, motivated me to improve my cooking! ;P
