She kept spinning the late Sudirman's song "balik kampung" and P Ramlee's song over and over again until 12am. Gosh! I think I still have that humming sounds of "balik kampung" in my head...

I give it a thumbs up rating of 4 stars out of 5 star. While I am watching this movie, my wife on the other hand, is busy writing her paper as usual. She discovered an innovative and ergonomic ways to reduce her tireness and stress while writing her papers...
