Coolness

It is amazing how small this world can be. Yesterday night, I was telling you about the Israeli love story and ok...sidetracking here a bit, it was the SHORTEST love story I have ever watched. Seriously short. I dont know if they were trying to say that if we fall in love so quickly, we can fall out of love so quickly also and then patch back that fast too. Hrm.

Oh yah the small world. I was reading through the comments for the heck of it and one of them was like commenting how he or she came from one of the countries in Asia which is conservative and only showed Brokeback Mountain (a gay themed love story) on the big screen. And then I was thinking....MUST be Singapore. And then true enough! When I clicked on the username which led to the profile, he or she IS from Singapore.

Oh, and that's not all. This 24 yr old person kinda creeped me out because apparently, the channels that this person subscribed to are mostly the same that I have subscribed to also or have watched a few times. Im like..'huh?!' And then this person apparently have also watched almost the same clips that I had watched which included films posted by independent film producers or compilation of clips from...get this...the soap dramas that I have watched or still currently watching.

Crazy or what?!! I know ure thinking...pfft.....come on, it's youtube...you're not the only one. But to know someone who basically shared the same taste on youtube is hard to find especially in your own country. Oh my Gawd. If we ever met or talk to each other, we will be busy comparing notes. I will be like..'hey did u see that latest clip from As the World Turns? What the heck was Luke doing?' and the person would say...'Yah.....why would he do such a thing..' Coolness, eh? And we would also share tidbits about the independent films that we have watched on youtube which I find out that this person have also watched The Bubble from a certain Israeli film producer and commented about this other film from another foreign producer that we should look out for.

Another tidbit that I can share with this person is that well....Brokeback Mountain will not be the only gay themed film that has shown in Singapore in the coming future. Early next year they will be releasing this biopic movie called Milk starring Sean Penn and James Franco among the number of actors about a slain Gay Rights activist and politician in the late 70s. 

To whoever you are.....nice to know someone watches international soap dramas like me too!

Rediscovering Writing & Cutting Down My Reliance On Social Media

I started writing again in my journal when I came across an old notebook where I did some creative writing and then reminisce about the time I didn't have any internet at home. I didn't even have a computer. At some point, I did have and back then was the dial up internet, lol. But it was still a form of entertainment, at a much slower speed, haha.

Anyway, I was also thinking how simpler life was back then and how less dependent we were on our phones and the internet. So I relied on writing and there was no online journal so I wrote inside my notebooks. Honestly it was quite embarrassing reading through them but these pages shaped my world back then.  I stopped writing for quite a while this year because I didn't feel like it. It's also as though I'm repeating myself. I would say that I promise to do this or that but never seem to come around and do something progressive. I feel as though I reset my life so many times without any much progress. So perhaps I would ta…

Our Experience at the Prudential Marina Bay Carnival 2018

Image
Last week, we rounded up our Marina Bay Carnival 2018 with the games, which we sucked at by the way. Honestly it was annoying how we throw money away like that, haha. We had enough rides..or rather had enough with rides, gosh that Viking ride made me broke out in sweat. I still don't understand how people can do an IG story/selfie/wefie while they were on that Viking ride that swing like a damn pendulum.

Anyway, we started off with the Euro Ride which was fun but alas, too brief. I think there were like two points that plunged down when we reached the top and then we were back to square one. It would have been better if we went at least two rounds but oh well. Now the Viking, that felt like forever, haha.

I told myself not to scream and though I didn't give out a girly scream, it was more of an exhilirating scream while looking at the guy sitting opposite, with a face who couldn't care less. I was thinking, don't you feel anything? The various reactions on the ride.

I was…
