armorbearer (2006 blog): The Devil wears Prada
Thursday, August 31, 2006




just got back from watching "The Devil Wears Prada" at Bishan GV with Winnie, Cheryl & Candice.


aside from the fabulous wardrobes the ladies possess (OMG LOOK AT ALL THE BRANDIES!!!!! *jumps around like a wild chihuahua*. i took back a few things..


first of all, Andrea (aka Andy) is privileged to be an assistant to Miranda, even though she didn't want the job as badly as others, she was able to inspire Miranda enough to hire her (as Miranda wanted to try something different)

as Christians, we are to be different from the world aren't we? so whenever situation or place we are in, we should always think of it as a privilege the Lord places you in there. There is definitely a reason for where you are now.

****SPOILER ALERT*****

Highlight to see the ending as well as my thoughts!

in the end, andy was able to go to paris instead of the first assistant to Miranda (due to the cold0), but after she quits her job after seeing the lack of loyalty Miranda has to her colleagues, she then decides to pass all the french designer dresses she obtained from the trip to the first assistant.

For once, the assistant smiles, and as she looks over the new person who takes over Andy's job, she tells her "You have a big shoe to fill"

How true! Loyalty is an important aspect in our walk with God. Being loyal to God means that no matter what circumstances, we heed His word. Even if we walk through the valley of death, i have NO FEAR for YOU are with me. Andy's principles mattered much more to her than the materialistic life. Even though she faltered once, she was able to redeem herself with the important decision of leaving the company. Just like God, He is always there to receive you back in open arms.

"you have a big shoe to fill" > Andy left a legacy in the company, being the alternatively dressed girl who stood out from the rest, who served miranda with a spirit of excellence and going the extra mile (instead of just obtaining the harry potter manuscript, she took the extra mile by delivering it to Miranda's daughters). This is what being a person of influence is!

It's a good film overall, i love the dresses and the witty conversations.. and btw, Bishan GV is so spacious and cozy, love it! :D

tomorrow's gonna be a day of fun in the (hopefully) sun! Blading with e374.. well, most of the non-working ones. heeeeeeee. can't wait!!!! ((((:
