writer's block....

okay, so obviously i dont know what to write lately. especially with the fact when i do have an idea to write, i dont have a laptop to update it. and when i finally have one, the idea dispersed into oblivion like a black hole warps in every single thing around and close to it.

i dont even have any new pics to update you guys on. Wow... to think about it, I've been here for a month and did not go out at all. this is my first whole month here this year. What did i do anyway? nothing? just filled my life with suspense. strangely enough relationships at this point of my life doesnt really matter. freaking amazing. so... no phone calls and text msgs except to my buds and family.

so okay... i really dont have any idea what to write... except about this.....

I've seen this movie god knows how many times... but i think it's probably one of the coolest movie ever made... Amelie.



Yes... I've seen this movie so many times... and yet it still attracts me in so many different ways. the script writing... how everyone in the movie was highlighted in every single way. the minute important things in each of their lives. their likes and dislikes... which is something not everyone understands or agree... but it is something that the person is very comfortable with. how Amelie likes to dip her fingers into a bag of grains, or how she likes to turn around and look at people's expression while watching a movie, and noticing the intricate details of the movie itself... as well as the other characters, Nino Quincompox (god knows how to spell it), Monsieur Dufayel, and others. One thing that i think most people probably dont know about me is... i dont like bihun goreng (except for the white ones, the red ones are just weird), i dont like mayo... dont hate it... but i certainly can live without it, and im not a fan of cappucino. i do like making my bed in the morning, stare at moving water (waterfall, fountain, river) and get lost in it for 5 minutes and i love watching feel good movies around europe and again wondering how do i get lost in it. and i like the feeling of sand around my toes by the beach which makes me smile and make people wonder if im crazy. and these are the things that i literally... just noticed. how bout you? those little things... that doesnt even matter to you or others... but u do like it.... amazing script Amelie....

But the movie didnt stand only on the script alone... it was the cinematography of the movie itself. How every simplicity of architecture, arts, and angle of the movie created the whole mood. If you notice... the almost every scene of the movie, there will be 2-3 dominant colors that's almost the same shade... and there will be only small color, that attracts the audience into a scene. it doesnt necessarily have to be at the center or huge... its usually one bright color that makes one concentrate on every scene, and its usually blue, red or green. it could be the eyes, a necklace, a lampshade, toothbrush... those very minute details.... it just makes the movie much more beautiful.

and finally... the France factor itself. Monsieur Collignon's store, the park where Amelie waits for Nino, the train station, the skyline... it just really took me in. and the amazing thing is... it's not even the center of the usual Paris... where the Eiffel Tower or Louvre is... its just in god knows somewhere... and yet... it makes u fall in love with the place so badly and make you feel the love, the adventure, of Amelie's quest in making everyone's life a better place in this world.

I so do love paris so much. i dont know when i'll be there... but i will. thank god i didnt go with any of my exs coz that'd be just a reeeeeaally bad memory after that. I dont mind going alone. just chilling, taking pictures, meeting people, listening to the nice early 1900s music on old record players... walking down the road where picasso started painting and cutting off his ears for the love of art...(BODOH gileee), sitting down in a nice bar or a restaurant and just watch passer-bys. and i sooo wanna go during the fall. i bet it'll be more than just magical.

well basically ive given a movie review of Amelie De Poulain. No other character could fit Amelie but Audrey Tautou. She fits the character just nicely.

When I'm in KL... im so gonna look for Before Sunrise and Before Sunset. that's another movie that;s just so very simple... just two people talking... its their amazing dialogue.

I think I'm changing into a very phlegmetic person. wow... that's mad weird.
