Sometimes, couples do silly things together, laughing it off.
Sometimes, couples do silly things to each other, and leave a path of tears.
Sometimes, I do silly things.
Sometimes, you do silly things.
If it's inevitable, so be it~
Because at the end of the day, nothing's gonna matter except you.
I love you.

Today was the release of A levels' results in school.
Got a shock when I received my result slip because of a scary nightmare I had a couple of days ago.
B for Econs and GP, D for Chem and Bio, E for Maths - this was in my dream. It worried me to no end.
But today, I find it difficult to believe that I scored a C for Maths despite the abysmal answers I'd given, and B for everything else. I'm a lil disappointed for Econs though, since it was the subject I worked the hardest for. I figured that it was probably my case study that screwed me up or smth...
And now, the trouble and headache of deciding what courses and what uni I should apply to.
Thinking, thinking.
How do I know what I really want?

Wiped out.
I've been so sleepy and tired these few days and I wonder why... since I've been having a minimal of 7 hours of sleep. Hmmm.... Oh, and I realised that my memory seems to be deterioriating for some reason. Gosh. STM's getting worse.
I broke my specs! I can't believe that I forgot that I placed them on the floor and accidentally stepped on them T_T The replacement of the lens costs me more than half of my salary. Bleah.
Exam results are coming out soon, and I dread the day when it does... since I know I'll be dragged back into reality - and I want to remain in my fairytale forever... carefree and in bliss like I've never been before.

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button - that's the movie I'd watched today at Jurong Point with a couple of friends.
My two cents on this movie? Despite the Academy award nominations, I found it lacking, even though I liked the idea behind this story. The visuals were great; the visual transition when Benjamin was old to when he was young was very smoothly done, and the actress for Daisy was wonderful. There was humour in a few scenes that made me laugh, but it wasn't to the extent where it was really terribly funny. The earlier portion of the movie when Benjamin was old was nicely done, especially the part where it was his first time to the brothel and drinking alcohol, as well as his first 'relationship/affair'. After that though... it started going downhill gradually.
The one thing that perturbs me the most is that this movie has a lot of potential to develop its emotional scenes (such as the first time he met Daisy again when she was adult, and when he had to leave her and his child behind so that they could live a normal, unburdened life, or the first time someone he loved/liked left) but it didn't. Although the fact was that the narrative was written in a journal style, I still felt that more emotions could have been put in rather than a monotonous reading. Also, I didn't really like how choppy the scenes were when they changed from the hospital to Benjamin's story, and the little relation from Benjamin to his daughter, Caroline. This reminds me of an old movie, Titanic, where they had used a similar way to play out the emotions and scenes... but compared to Titantic, it remains miles behind. Perhaps it was a lack of strong, moving, background music to facilitate the film or something, but this is one film that I'd probably not watch, but read (if a book was ever available). OH. And the constant bombardment of various to-be sex scenes somewhere in the middle of the movie totally turns me off, given that the rating was around PG, and that number of times it occurred was totally unnecessary?
I have to applaud the cast for their brilliant acting though, and those characters that were particaularly memorable were Captain Mike, Daisy, Queenie, Elizabeth Abbott and of course, Benjamin Button. Unlike Inkheart, this was clearly a movie that was meant to be thought-provoking (or inspiring in a certain sense), but the lack of that tugging in my heart made lessened the impact of those words.
