Argh!

I can't believe THAT happened.

Okay, so it happened in a movie. Which I watched about a fortnight ago.

But that one scene that I glimpsed at was so totally... argh! OFF! It seemed so way off from the script!

Well, I can't really say that, can I? Coz it's part of the script that THAT happen, and it did happen, but still... Argh, no wonder I could only watch it in bits and pieces, coz it's bloody painful to watch.

I mean... argh. Gimme a break. Consistencies. Geez.

Come to think of it, I'm not that 100% sure if it was the same character, but I'm about 90% sure of it.

Right. Consistencies. So you're the guy's kid's babysitter. You lived in the apartment building, with your parents, so that makes you underage, a minor. Guy gets the big bad from Fate and gets thrown in prison for something that someone begged him to do, something that in the first place he didn't really want to do because he's changed and reformed and all that jazz.

Prison time. Visitation.

You're the babysitter. The kid has grandparents to take care of her. And they live off the city, so what in the name of all that's holy are you doing there? What do you care anyway?

So you care... What'll your parents think?

That's a bloody ex-con you're consorting with... well, maybe not consorting this time around (but definitely that later, which I can't stand)... and your parents let you go?

Guy gets out of prison, legally. They get married. They solve the crime, clear their name, whatever it is that good guys do to beat the bad guys. And they ride off in a modified pick-up truck.


Crikey. Crock. Cor, blimey.



Saw Britney Spear's new video, Everytime. People were saying that it was a portrayal of video? Come on! Why? Because it occured in a bathtub full of water? Somewhere that females have consistently used as a suicide avenue?

Don't think so.

Besides, the blood came from the back of her head. Can anyone really self-inflict a wound to the back of their head? I'm just curious here. But I don't think so. Statistically, it's always a blade to the wrist, or a gun to the mouth or the temple. Success rate-wise, gun to the mouth is better because there's just soft tissue there on the way to the brain.

Anyway, so there's blood on the back of her head. Question: where did that come from? In no scene that I remember in the video did she get hit at the back of her head. Her boyfriend throws stuff and is generally angry at the world, but he doesn't lay a finger on her. Well, except for that attempt at a conciliatory hug, which she rebuffed.

My reason for this: I've been wondering how it would be, that first instant of being dead. Will your soul/essence linger near your body or will it combine with the life force of the universe at once?

I'm not going anywhere near the heaven or hell question.


I won't be going with the family's outing to the beach. Reason: don't want to deal with people. That and I have my period and I don't want to have to worry about that over with how to act around them. Them being the family, technically, the family of the sister-in-law.

Not that I don't like them... but my contemporary with that family just left the country so... hehehe

Besides, gives me a chance to have some quality time with Illusion and H! That makes me happier. ^__^

What was that I heard in one show in Discovery...? Something about people having lost the comfort of face-to-face interaction in favor of cyber interaction. Heck, I don't mind that.

Except for re: my friends. It's always great to see them and spend time with them outside chat.

Family-wise though, an occasional face-to-face is enough.

*sigh*

I miss the days when I lived in the dorm. It was easier then, although I missed a heck of a lot of television shows. The beauty of cable.

It really is easier to get this out through using the computer, but for accessibility, I'll still go for pen and paper.

Speaking of which, I finally unearthed that Legolas notebook Paul gave me. Still in pristine condition, so that's good. What I'm planning on doing is peppering it with more Horatio Caine pics, to use as cover. Well, not so for the front panel, because that's Legolas out there.

Project for the near future: taping and securing the Legolas notebook with Horatio Caine pics, with a smattering of Maksim and Harry Potter just for the heck of it. So what if they'll be printed out of a really old-fashioned printer with all the pixels and in black and white?

hehehe

Idea: Hey, Feifu! How's your printer? I think I have some photopaper somewhere among my things, and I can always spring for the ink.

Hmm... need frame or frames... maybe I'll just laminate it...


Liar liar liar liar

Why is it so easy for some people to lie about stuff and/or reinvent that reality to suit themselves? And more often than not, I'm the bloody unwitting pawn in the deception.

Not to mention that I think I am getting infected with envy and jealousy, coloured by bitterness.

I need to get out of here, but I'm too complacent.

Damn me.
