in the realm of dreams
Thursday, September 27, 2007
I have no idea why, but I am feeling emo-ish. Well, more like effusive. I feel lethargic and solitary. I spent my break reading, practicing on the piano, gymming, baking, watching telly and sleeping. It is nice not going to tutorials and rushing from meetings to lectures. It's almost like living a taitai's life, minus the kids and husband. Complete isolation.
So why am I feeling so out of place? I feel like my heart's not there, like it's being detached from something that I cannot really describe. No idea.

I caught Stardust on Tuesday. I really enjoyed it. It is one of my favourite book- the story of how a boy became a man when he ventured into the unknown in search for a star. The movie was a bit different from the book, something which I hate when books make it to the big screens- think Harry Potter and Queen of the Damned. To divert little, the main focus of Queen of the Damed was the Story of the Red-Haired twins, and it was a brilliant story. I thought the film did not live up the to standard. But who cares right? Stuart Townsend looked hot in the movie.
Why? Stuart?
I loooooooooooved the scene when Yvaine told Tristan that she thought that perhaps she was in love with him. To quote her, "You know when I said I knew little about love? That wasn't true. I know a lot about love. I've seen it, centuries and centuries of it, and it was the only thing that makes watching the world bearable. All those wars. Pain, lies, hate... It made me want to turn away and never look down again. But when I see the way that mankind loves... You search to the furthest reaches of the universe and never find anything more beautiful. So yes, I know that love is unconditional. But I also know that it can be unpredictable, unexpected, uncontrollable, unbearable and strangely easy to mistake for loathing, and... what I'm trying to say, Tristan is... I think I love you. Is this love Tristan? I never imagined I'd know if for myself. My heart... It feels like my chest can barely contain it. Like it's trying to escape because it doesn't belong to me anymore. It belongs to you. And if you wanted it, I'd wish for nothing in exchange. No fits. No goods. No demonstrations of devotion. Nothing but knowing you loved me too. Just your heart, in exchange for mine."
That. Was the most romantic thing I have heard. It wasn't in the novel, and I thought it was the most beautiful part of the movie. Loves it.
I love Robert De Niro in the film as well. He looked so cute in drag, such an amicable and lovable pirate.

Last night I dreamt that my secondary school friends were with me back in primary school. We were all three strawberries tall (Like how Smurfs are three apples tall). In the dream, I was BFF again with Xiao Han. It felt nice.
Prison Break season three premiered last night. I cannot help gushing how sizzling, orgasmic hot Wentworth Miller looked. Really, who can look THAT sexy with a shaven head.
AHHHHHHHHH!!!!I feel much better. :D
