i like cold pillows, sitting on the lincoln memorial steps, bending beanie baby tags, playing with tape. i dislike rude people, when movies are spoiled, cracking knuckles, hallmark customers, having to hear a song i hate over and over again. amelie is such a beautiful movie. i want the whole world to see it. of course, i sit there and cry during an uplifting movie.. because never in a movie have i identified with a main character like i have with amelie. i loved all the idiosyncrasies of the people in the movie. because maybe one swallow does not make an entire summer, but a bunch of idiosyncrasies do make up a large part of the person. the little things we usually think nothing of are the most magical and uplifting things we can be faced with. and the movie is set in paris, right after the tragic death of princess di. everything changes for amelie. after one event. angela and i look back on that day a lot. not because of princess di dying a tragic death, but because it was a period in angela's life, where her life was totally about to change. and maybe for me too. maybe i'll see amelie again. i'm dying to see it again, but i really want to take someone with me. someone who will appreciate it and say "thank you" afterwards. i want to watch the movie, and turn around like amelie did to look at the expression of everyones face! i bought the new radiohead cd and i'm in love with 'spinning plates.' i keep pretending that i'm at that new jersey concert where thom yorke dedicated "spinning plates" to all the people who were flooded out of the bull run concert. i've been talking to kate a lot lately. she heard about this rastafarian church on tv and she's convinced me that we both need to go and sing reggae songs in church. our talks have also made me want to go to europe. i'm trying to organize a way so that we both can go and just tour europe. we'll have a place to stay in germany, france, italy, portugal, and many many places in england. i don't know if i could afford such a venture. i'd actually really just like to move to england and work there. but why would anyone want to hire me in england when they don't want to hire me here?? but it would be so incredibly sweet if i could live in england. i love british people. i have a bunch of friends and family there already. and the cultureshock i experience won't be that harsh since i've lived there before. |
