Thoughts that linger in the mind of a Singaporean teen.

it has seriously seriously been a very long while since i updated this rusty old blog.. and i highly doubt anyone has been following, but i'm gonna continue for my own pleasure.

Most people watch movies to kill time, but i think i have something else for movies. I'm not gonna call myself a movie junkie like some of my friends cuz i don't think i qualify, but i find movies have the ability to influence. Let's take for example Inception. after watching it, my whole life was a dream for the next 24 hrs. Let's not go into that.

I think movies set humans apart from reality. It allows us to venture into a world thought of by movie makers and we either love it or hate it. Some people even watch movies to put themselves in misery. I dare say i'm one of them.

Sometimes, you think of someone, and you can't really feel him or her, and the only way you can feel that person is through movies. You put yourself in the main character's shoes and you comfort yourself, thinking that someone else is feeling your pain and sorrows, but most of the time it's just a fantasy. after awhile, you start feeling all miserable cuz you realise your situation is not as successful as in the movie. That feeling really sucks.
