i've been crying myself to sleep the past 2 nights-
and before you start thinking i'm some sort of chronic depressive,
let me explain myself:
the first night i watched a 1937 classical hollywood film 'stella dallas'.
it's really flipping sad, i wasn't merely weeping, i was outrightly sobbing and moaning in sorrow.
damn emotional the story, really you all should watch it!!
and the next morning i had class at 10am, i could barely open my eyes because they were so puffed up.
but it's worth it! i haven't actually sat down to any movie that can make me cry a river like that in so long...
therapeutic.
and last night i finally watched 'crash' by paul haggis.
it deals mainly with issues of racism in an urban metropolis like LA.
not the best movie in my opinion, and i guess i'm a sucker like that, but i felt the movie was saved by how the characters eventually redeemed themselves by realising that people should be judged not by their colour but by the essence of their souls.
but some parts were just damn touching.
tears of melancholy they were.
today i got my personal credit card in the mail.
muaah! big responsibility- i'm solely 100% responsible for paying for this one.
this is the beginning of my long and dreary love-hate relationship with THE plastic,
it's cooking time!
i still maintain it feels very weird to be taking care of myself.
