all these feelings cloud up my reasoning
past half week has been interesting. much staying up late and obstructing people's paths in the hallway. including one whole night of sleeping in the hallway while pretending to be homeless (full with sleeping bags, beanies, cardboard sign, and pennycup. um. don't ask why.
nothing much else has happened really. well. there was that pretty chill english class last week...where all we did was watch crash for our upcoming papers.
and while i'm at it, maybe i'll update my "movies watched" list:
moulin rouge - can't remember if i've already written on this one. it's been a while since i've watched it. from what i can recall, i thought it a pretty good movie. though i usually am not very interested in musicals on screen...i somehow agreed to watching it and actually found it not bad. interesting use of contemporary music for its older time period setting. also makes infatuation look really scary o_0. has a depressing ending which balances out some of its cheesy parts.
the science of sleep - finally watched it after half a year of waiting. and must say, enjoyed it very much so. very indie and artsy in a way that my roomies did not really...enjoy as much as me i guess. almost started talking about the cool use of stopmotion animation and the movie's somewhat surreal style before realizing with a blow that they probably don't give a shit about that stuffs. ohwells. at least they thought the main actor was hot. *shrugs*
the prestige - pretty awesome movie. science fiction with a lot of twist. you go into it all like wtf. probably a lame movie about two magicians who just wish they were harry potter characters. though the plotline is totally implausible, the concepts introduced are very interesting. it's a movie that requires a second viewing for the full appreciation of its clever hints and subtle details. plus, nikola tesla makes an appearance as ...pretty much god in the form of a scientist. which is very amusing indeed.
pan's labyrinth - absolutely wonderful film. just a reminder of what american film can never achieve (but partly because i doubt american society would let one of its directors ever get away with making such a film of such violent rawness...esp one involving children). a beautiful film in all its brutal atrocities. its being in spanish further adds to the film's beauty. warning, it is a very sad movie. but it's okay, those are always the best kind :P
not sure if i've forgotten any but whatevs. daylights savings just took away one hour of my lyfe in just one second. so mean. ima go cry myself to sleep now.
