Beating Around the Bush

For a couple of weeks now, I have been avoiding writing my short story for my creative writing course. I don’t know why. No, scratch that. I do know why. Normally the ideas take a life of their own and somehow work their way from the tip of my mind to the tips of my fingers onto the keyboard. This time is different though. It’s almost as if my ideas are dead. The drive that pushed up all these creative feelings, long gone. It could be personal things that block my train of thought, or it could be just me blocking my own train of thought. 

Because all I want to do nowadays is play, you see. Play guitar, play outside with friends, play online, it’s all the same to me right now. It all spells carelessness. And that, is what I think I want the most right now. To not care. 

I don’t get it when people post an update on facebook and then “like” it. what a bunch of pricks.

LOL

never mind that every day challenge thing already xD

I can’t help but temporarily fall in love with random strangers who happen to glance my way.

Currently Watching Atonement (Dir. Joe Wright).

The only part that I have ever seen of this movie, is the long tracking shot at Dunkirk.

I swear, the entire time, I felt my eyes brimming up with tears as the camera slowly revealed the defeated and chaotic scene. I held my breath the entire five and a half minutes. Such a brilliant and beautiful shot. 

why have I not watched the full movie yet?!

Day 02 - Favorite Dramatic Film.
Children of Men - directed by Alfonso Cuarón
17 years into the future, and not a single human can reproduce anymore. Well, not one single person… 

The ideas, picture, and characters in this film. All beautiful.

Day 01 - A cinematic person you admire:
Michel Gondry.I fell in love with this man’s work the moment I saw the trailer for his 2001 film, Human Nature. Gondry’s whimsical and symbolic style accent nicely on top of his simplistic film techniques. Stop motion, changed perspectives and camera angles, Gondry isn’t the type of person who needs to spend big bucks to create a little “movie magic.”  He wanted to be an inventor, you know.I admire his passions and quirks. He is my role model. I am even learning French in hopes that one day I’ll be strolling along the streets, run into him, converse a bit, and enchant him into letting me work with him on one of his next projects. Because of him, I’ve finally set goals for myself.
