Just heard a song by Ah Du which sounded rather nice. Haha. I remember how caught up I was with his first song... Can't remember what it is now though.
I can't decide where to study. If I study at home, I'll be so distracted, but its so much easier. If I study outside, where do I study?? Gaah.
Sweet November kind of sucked. It was so disappointing, even the ending. There weren't any real emotions involved. The words were at times poetic, but they rang hollow. And Charlize Theron looks really scary sometimes. Her face can become all mottled up and blotchy at will. Keanu Reeves was okay I guess. His acting wasn't that bad, but it wasn't exactly fantastic either. The way he speaks is very stilted. I did like one quote from the movie though... "If you leave now, everything we had will be perfect, forever."
Yesterday, I was watching the news on the former DPM's state funeral, and they were showing the ministers giving their speeches. Somehow... it just seemed like any old day when they give their national speeches. Except for MM Lee, nobody seemed to have much emotion about his passing. I'm not expecting them to break down and cry. But I just thought an eulogy should be something from the heart, not written out and read off like it was a speech for Parliament. Everything about us is always so cold, so efficient. Sometimes, it feels as if I'm living in a metallic dome. It's always controlled and cool inside this dome.
Okay, enough of my ruminations. I need to get down to studying.
