watched a number of movies recently. slumdog millionaire, detroit metal city (dmc), shinjuku incident and nxt week, i wanna catch handsome suit ~
*
think out of these few films, dmc is the best one. i think with age, entertainment will really mean entertainment. i juz wanna spend the $, go in and enjoy the aircon, the food and of cuz the movie. i think slumdog and shinjuku incident are too 'heavy'. the more i watched, the more stressful i get. dmc is different, juz go in, relax and have a good laugh. doesnt matter if it makes sense or not.. so long i dont have to think abt it and so long i dont have to worry abt gory or gruesome scenes which mite juz appear next. ~

but thinking deeper, dmc, despite being a comedy, in fact depicts life. the story is about a shy and gentle guy whose dream is to become a pop musician. however, by twist of fate, he became the lead singer of a death metal band.
*
on the stage with the make-up and costumes, he's Sir Krauser, the idol and god of countless fans. but once off stage, he's back to his own timid shy guy with a mushroom haircut whom no one had the slightest idea that he in fact, is Sir Krauser. and, of cuz, he hates being Sir Krauser.

i feel the irony comes when he actually envys his junior who's able to pursue the route to being a pop singer and for having fans when he himself is soooo popular and has tons of die hard fans.

isnt that life?
*
isnt it very often that we envy others but failed to see wad we actually have in hand ourselves? isnt it always the case that we think so-and-so is so much better off me and how great can it be if i can be like so-and-so?
*
but, in actual fact, how much do u know so-and-so? how do u know if he is happy? how do u know wad he is undergoing? and most importantly, how do u know that he doesnt wish he was someone else?
*
juz like we think Sir Krauser must be a very happy man becuz he's got millions of fans, his career is successful, he's making big bucks.. but ultimately, he's not...
*
juz like how much Sir Krauser wanted to be a pop musician but couldnt and ended up being super successful in something which he hates being.. life, isnt it???
*
how often can we do wad we really really want to do and who we really really wanna be?
*
think abt it...
*
very often, ladies around me said they'll wish to be tai-tais.. but will u really be happy when u become one? how much do u know on how much it involves being a tai-tai??
*
striking toto and becoming millioniare is the dream of many.. but when u really become one, will u really be happy? how much do u know on how much it involves being a millionaire?

when u get that slim body, that sleak legs, that long hair, that extreme tan, that big bright eyes, that busty boobs, that sharp nose, that flawless skin, that perfect height............. will u truly be happy? wad makes u think someone who's slim wouldnt wish he/she is fatter? wad makes u think someone who's tall wouldnt wish he/she is shorter? wad makes u think someone with busty boobs wouldnt wish her boobs are smaller? wad makes u think someone with a good tan wouldnt wish he/she is fairer or someone who's fair wouldnt wish he/she is darker???
*
we envy rich pple like bill gates, lee kah shing.. we envy beautiful pple like fann wong, farhrenhait.. we envy popular icons like jay chou, stephanie sun.. but.... how do u know they were not wishing they were like commoners like us?????
*
the pasture is always greener at the other side of the hill. i think we all should learn to stop thinking abt the pasture at the other side, but start to appreciate the pasture which u are at now.. becuz for all you know, the pple at the other side, is thinking that ur side is better!!
