Movies. They take your fullest attention so bad I sometimes think it’s wasted time. I mean, you can read a book while listening to some Ra Ra Riot or something. With movies, you can’t. They’re attention whores that way. Gawd, I hate myself after watching a movie. I smoke (it’s becoming a habit, again) right after a movie, or even between it, or just the scenes where the characters smoke. I can’t help but be affected–be drowned with the ending, or the course of the story. With books, it’s a different case. I don’t remember plots that much. The characters, well yes, but maybe I’ve read a lot these years (in my standards, I mean) all the characters just mix up like Hester Prynne with Marla Singer stuck in a Tokyo Subway Gas Attack.
With movies, which are fucking vivid enough for your brain to remember the scenes, the lines, everything, well, you can’t just forget them. Movies are stuck in your mind forever.
I shall undergo a lobotomy session.

hahah you hate yourself after watching a movie. fantastic.
have you been a part of a theatre production? you’ll be seeing the same scenes over and over again (if you’re part of the backstage staff) and you won’t forget them… especially the lines. x_x
btw.. i read your comment. being in like is.. uh, having a crush. i think only girls know that term, i am glad you didn’t get it because if you did i’ll think you’re gay.
pero diba kapag bioring ang movie o walang kwenta sa simula pa lang eh pwede ka namang gumawa ng kung ano-ano?
depende sa pagtingin mo kung pokpok ba sa atensiyon yung pelikula o hindi
:p
fuck, i’m so like you.
my friends say im hyper-emphatic, i really get carried away with what i read, watch or hear. if it’s depressing i get depressed. if it’s happy i get really happy.
I can never focus when I watch downloaded movies. I tend to do a lot of different things. And that is why, even though completely expensive, I usually watch movies in the cinema.
haha at the lobotomy. very zafra.
speaking of movies, i heard kimmy dora has been making a scene :p imma lose on movies nowadays.
@Barry: LOL is that very Zafra!? :O Yes, Kimmy Dora is making a scene that my professor in one subject gave us an option of reviewing it. Hmmm.
@Cars: OH Wow, so there’s a different case after all.
@Eon: HELL YEAH WE ARE HYPER-EMPHATIC. I love that term. :D Better than my syndrome shit.
@Samjuan: Pwede, pero ang ginagawa ko lang talaga kapag boring ang unang part ng movie ay matulog. Wala nang iba.
@Chiui: I will be a part of a theater prod next sem. Good luck to me.
I wanna join I wanna join! :)
