Finally.
Okay, so basically, I finally watched 500 Days of Summer! And I'm happy to say that it wasn't as bad as I initially thought it was hahaha. For those of you who don't know, I have tried to watch the movie like 3 times, but never got past the first 10 minutes, but today I watched the whole thing :O It was quite a good movie actually, there are some things I want to talk about!
Firstly, SUMMER IS A HORRIBLE PERSON OMG I HATE HER. Ergh, so frustrating. As in seriously, Tom is like asdfghjkl. I mean, yeah he's a little wimpy, but he's like.. He wants to define a relationship! I love guys who define the relationship. And Summer is just so horrible to him, and I'm sosososo glad that he didn't get together with her in the end cause she's a horrid bitch and he deserves better. I MEAN HE MADE HER A MIX AND SHE DIDN'T LISTEN TO IT. Adhfbgurhbvu. If a guy made ME a mix.. Sigh. Where are all the Toms in the world, and why are they hiding? )':
Secondly, I totally agree with what he said about greeting cards!! I HATE greeting cards. Its so impersonal and fake. I mean, a card should contain personality and memories and jokes and compliments and sincerity, and I highly doubt this can come from someone else's office cubicle. I never give greeting cards to people, ever. Yeah, I'd rather have a handwritten note on a piece of foolscap with 4 sentences than a $5 greeting card. And yes, I'd rather have a long note than a gift. Its just so much more meaningful you know? Oh and you guys know how much I love words.
It's only words, and words are all I have,
To take your heart away.
Did I mention that I love this song? No? Well, I do. I love Beejees. And The Beatles (duh) and Simon and Garfunkel, and Bonjovi, and John Denver, and Kenny Rogers, and the Carpenters. And ah, I just love old songs okay. Like a lot. They just have so much of sincerity. And they're so innocent and good-willed and cute and happy and upbeat and sweet and just.. Ah. Yes. HAHA, Chanel and I were singing Burning Love in Math today hahahaha. And You Give Love A Bad Name (:
OH, and I really love urban photography and art. Idk, I guess I've grown up looking at all these nature-y paintings (my house is filled with Monet) and don't get me wrong, I love them, but I still really love urban sketches and paintings. And photos. Like how they can really capture the essence of the city and and people and the atmosphere. I love it. My future house will have a lot of them!! :D
Oh, and the movie got me thinking what my favourite spot is. I guess I haven't been around enough to explore the really ulu places, but I'll tell you some of my favourites.
One is Raffles Marina. Its a dock, and its really far away from my house, but my family and I head there sometimes for dinner. And I adore sitting by the water and seeing the lights reflect off the dark expanse of water. Its so peaceful and serene and I feel so.. At peace there.
There's this place in India which I fell in love with. We were driving, and we crossed this bridge like thing. And on the left was this river, and it was covered with these white flowers, and they were gorgeous. I think they were weeds, but there were so stunning when they were swaying in the wind, and it was just so beautiful. I only caught a glance of it that once, but I've never really forgotten it.
Haha, the next one is pretty close to home! Its the balcony in school! Haha, the one over the amphi you know? On the second floor? Hahaha, last year, I used to go there every morning, before assembly and just mull things through in my head. Its nice there in the mornings, the air is cool, and you can see everyone walking into school. I really thought a lot there, and I used to spend at least 10 minutes everyday by myself in the exact same spot. After which various batchmates will join me and we'll talk about life (: I still go there sometimes, in the morning, and stare out. Its a place I'll really miss when I leave RG, but I promised myself that I'll find my own ulu spot in RJ to muse in the mornings haha (:
Finally, another random spot which I like, is this bridge, on PIE. Its somewhere near the Bedok exit I think. And its so pretty honestly. Its a white overhead bridge, crossing over the highway. Everytime I pass it, I always tell myself that one day, I will go sit on that bridge and look at the highway. Its just one of those things that I really want to do. Absolutely irrational of course, but yes. One day, I will bring someone to that bridge and look at all the cars which pass by and talk about life. And when I bring you there, you know you're special. We're going to look incredibly stupid, sitting there, because people do use it, but whatever. I will sit there, dangle my legs, in the evening, watch the sunset, and watch headlights of cars' at night, cause its something I've wanted to do for a really long time.
I love talking about strange things on my blog. Its like really a part of me, you know? I put a piece of me, into this blog every post, and its here for everyone to read, but I don't really care. Because mostly, its for ME to read. Its for me to put down my thoughts in writing, and to know that even through all this stress and rush, there's still a person inside of me.
