After a day of "hard" work, it's time to blog abit about anything i can think of. Read up about Yip Man and Wong Fei Hung on Wiki, both were great chinese martial art master in Foshan, China.

Why did i do research on them?

Simple reason! While watching Ip Man, i thought to myself, "Oh Ip Man was from Foshan, so was Wong Fei Hung, so do they know each other?" To clear my doubts, i decided to do some research =)

Wong Fei Hung lived from 1847–1924.

Yip Man lived from 1893-1972.

In the movie "Ip Man", it show the war period timeline from 1930s to 1940s. This particular war was called the Second Sino-Japanese War (1937-1945). So during this war, Wong Fei Hung was already history thus the reason of him not appearing in the movie. *Doubts Cleared*

Yip Man started learning Wing Chun (Yong Chun) at a tender age of 13. He returned to Foshan at the age of 24 and his Wing Chun skills had improved tremendously. *He was studying in Hong Kong between the age of 13 - 24 while still learning Wing Chun*

When Yip Man was 24, Wong Fei Hung would be 70, so they "might" know each other isnt it? Well IDK too coz I cant find any source of info LOL!

Anyway, a sequel of Ip Man will be out but it's starring Tony Leung Chiu Wai as Yip Man *well kinda disappointed*

Donnie Yen is the better choice!

Well enough of the chunk of infos! Some thing to say to my friend,

"Letting go might be painful, but not letting go and hanging will more painful"

Not only that, always remember, whenever you are hanging up there, friends will be down there to support you.

And if you are tired, let us know, we will help you to get down =)

========================================================

Oh and lastly, there will also be a Transformer sequel coming soon in June '09, woot! Am looking forward to it.
