all about penguins

saw March of the Penguins yesterday. excellent film. the story of the emperor penguins is fascinating, and it really is amazing when you see what they have to endure (fucking fierce blizzards, starvation - 4 months never eat leh) for the sake of procreation. i find it quite uplifting to see such strength in nature and this kind of moves me. there are also some really beautiful scenes. definitely worth seeing.

also finally finished reading Death and the Penguin today. certainly recommend it. it is not depressing like Murakami.

now the sequel, Penguin Lost.
