I am so drained
Been out/working/tuition and going home late (after 11 is my definition of late) every day of the week so far..that coupled with touch rugby and football yesterday is finally taking its toll on me today. Yet I like this feeling of fatigue and aches all over-- it makes you feel like you've been busy and making the most out of your days.
Colin wanted to watch Stardust so he got a bunch of us to go with him yesterday. Aston joined us too, and boy was he in financially dire straits! So he ended up eating a free Kid's Bait Meal courtesy of Zehan's voucher (lol). He warned us over dinner at Fish&Co that Stardust would be a date movie. In the end, most of us (mostly Zehan) were lamenting over how we'd just wasted a perfectly good date movie by watching it with five other guys. I thought it was a really sweet movie, though I'd very much prefer one that sets me thinking, or makes me cry. Not knowing much about Neil Gaiman's works, I was expecting something rather cheem--totally didn't expect a Final Fantasy-esque saccharine-laden adventure! But it was good fun nonetheless. I really loved Yvaine's speech to Tristan the mouse:
"You know when I said I knew little about love? That wasn't true. I know a lot about love. I've seen it, centuries and centuries of it, and it was the only thing that made watching your world bearable. All those wars. Pain, lies, hate... It made me want to turn away and never look down again. But when I see the way that mankind loves... You could search to the furthest reaches of the universe and never find anything more beautiful. So yes, I know that love is unconditional. But I also know that it can be unpredictable, unexpected, uncontrollable, unbearable and strangely easy to mistake for loathing, and... What I'm trying to say, Tristan is... I think I love you. Is this love, Tristan? I never imagined I'd know it for myself. My heart... It feels like my chest can barely contain it. Like it's trying to escape because it doesn't belong to me any more. It belongs to you. And if you wanted it, I'd wish for nothing in exchange - no fits. No goods. No demonstrations of devotion. Nothing but knowing you loved me too. Just your heart, in exchange for mine. "
Okay so I'm a bit of an idealist/dreamer. So sue me. Oh and to everyone there yesterday sorry if I got a bit quiet. There was..stuff on my mind.
