Heard of a film called Twin Sisters? Well, me neither when Candz asked me to watch it with her tonight. She wanted to go out and catch a flick, I juz wanted some entertainment other than Hikaru no Go (Yes, i AM watching Hikaru no Go again... stop looking at me like that... stop it... I SAID...) Anywaes, went to watch it with her at KinoDendy, nice posh-looking place which was situated next to what Candz declared, a great food court.
So we entered and we watch the Twin Sisters.

And it was good. Not great or excellent, but good. The show is basically about two twin sisters, who were separated when they were children and raised among different living conditions. A basic nature vs nurture movie. One is raised on a farm in Germany, the other in Holland. They grow up and lead different lives, intersecting in various places. Then... war. The 2nd world war. And things start falling apart.

It's a touching film, that makes u view the atrocities of the 2nd World War in different lights. 2 different POV. But quite anti-war. It's rather long, at more than 2 hrs, but you are watching two womens' lifespans... and u noe women... longwinded ;)
Characters are well-defined, each sister with distinct personalities, yet managing to convey sisterhood. And the actresses do well to keep the illusion alive. Music wasn't bad, nor was it groundbreaking though. Very flowy and subtle... too subtle... easily forgettable.

This gets 3.5 stars, good, not great, but still, a good watch. Makes me wanna watch Schinder's List. Really.

Good morning Muggles! And yes, it's a post after a couple of days, for missing that one day... I apologize. So, I've been playing... well attempting to play, you can't really play when everyone else is studying, and if the whole world is dark when one is awake. Not very good playing conditions.
But yes, I've been entertaining myself, after essay writing, konked out til 3pm, and slacked til dinner. Went Borders and met up with frens. Treated myself to a huge steak :) and it was good. Go eat steaks people, it will make you so happy. So...very...happy. Played with my neighbour's dog, who i swear has bipolar syndromne, she's like quiet and docile and nice one moment, and then seeks to eat me the next. But shes cute and I'm beginning to love her too.
And finally, borrowed Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix from a fren. And read it last night. And finished it this morning. At 9am. And slept. And here I awake. Yay me.
Harry's a brat. He's a whiny, rebellious teenager with illusions of grandeur. He is sooooo pampered it makes me sick. The story starts off fine, very intriguing in fact, then takes a nose dive as people try to explain the plot to a crazy boy. Sigh, things we do to vanquish evil. Liked the romance bit inside, thought Harry could use some tips.. or brains. And pls... people dying. That was it? THAT WAS IT? We could smell that plot line a mile away. Gimme my George R. R. Martin any day. I swear he hates his characters.

btw, hope QB does ok Jo... really do.

and it's all done... yippee

*goes out to play... or maybe sleep... whichever comes first*

How can I remember

How can I remember things that never happened?
Arms that never held me,
lips I've never kissed.
How can I remember?

Why do I keep seeing someone's face before me,
eyes that say they know me,
shining through the mist
eyes that I remember.

I don't know why or when or where.
I feel suspended in mid-air
somewhere between a dream and a mem'ry.
Would then and there meet somewhere?

Why do I keep hearing some familiar music
half forgotten love songs
running through my mind
why do I remember.

I don't know why or when or where.
I feel suspended in mid-air
somewhere between a dream and a mem'ry.
Would then and now meet somewhere?

There are many things I may not understand,
but somehow I knew that you would take my hand.
I always knew you'd find me,
always knew you'd love me.

Long before I met you
don't ask me how I knew
ever since I can remember
I remember you.

The most romantic song I've ever heard... period. It's from the movie Sabrina which I haven't watched, but the music was fabulous. It's a song that makes me fall in love.

Caution. How does one approach life? With zest? Confidence? Or caution. Heh, it's 2am and I'm writing about philosophical meanings once more. H1 from me yar. So how? People with confidence would approach life with zest. Anything with zest really. It's up to the amount of energy a person is willing to give. In love, how much a person is willing to take chances determines how much the relationship may or may not work. As is the general answer, you have to try. Doing things cautiously is not exactly the best thing to do. It's safe. But is it correct? Hiding emotions, anger, sadness, or anything... it's done to protect urself and others from ever arguing, from ever doing anything wrong or bad or impulsive. It's also considered bad manners. There are people who will understand. There are people who will care. You have to open up more. Life with more zest is more fun no? No, I confess that I never follow my own advice. I'm not exactly an outgoing, skydiving, sharkbaiting kinda guy. But I am vocal... that much I know. And I will tell you what I think. When I think. How I think. That's the way I am. Now, do you?
If you dun tell anybody anything, how can anybody tell you anything?

2 am and I'm trying to do work. Keyword ladies and gents is 'Trying'. I can try to do anything. I can try to lift a plane. I can try to be Aussie Idol. I can try to write a book. The actual thing here is doing. Which seems to be the problem I'm facing. The stuff's in front of me. But no motivation to write. So I'll write into the night.. .slow and steady. That's the way right? Right.

And jazz is so good. So, so, good.

And why doesn't anybody declare undying love to me so that I can reject.
Some pple have all the luck.
