This week has been a really tiring, depressing, emotional week.
206 filming has not only hit so many dead-ends and had to make a u-turn, but conflicts and tension have abounded between friends and groupmates. I'm getting quite sick and tired of it. Also starting to hate myself for not being able to control my tone of words. Besides, IMM playground seriously has tons of mozzies... they had a feast sucking the life outta me.
Oh, and another first:
got pulled down to the fire command centre (FCC) of IMM by the security guard and ordered to stop filming. And got escorted back to the playground to ensure that we packed up and left. At least the guard was quite nice. He was just doing his job but the upper mgmt.. hmm.. no comments. Starting to think
rules and protocols and all the red tape put in place just takes precious time away from our lives when we could all be using that time to do more
productive and meaningful things.
Today, I just had to get my mind off school and stress. So I went to catch the movie
"My Sister's Keeper". I tell you... I think it's the 1st time I spent an entire hour (like really), crying.
Warning: The movie's not just a tearjerker; it's literally a sobbing activator. My whole new pack of tissue was used up by the end of the movie. And I was having such a hard time breathing cos my nose was blocked part of the time and trying not to make so much sound with all the sobbing and blowing of nose. Especially since the show was one of those kinds which is slow-moving and sad and silent, one could even hear a pin-drop, not to mention all my weird sounds from my sobbing and runny/blocked nose.
I tell you I will never again watch such a heartwrenching movie at the cinema. It's just such a chore. At least if I watched it at home, I could make all the sounds I wanted and not disturb anyone. When I left the theatre, this whole group of guy standing outside the restroom were like staring at me... must have been thinking why my eyes and nose are so red and swollen. Embarrassing... Then, all the way home in the car, my eyes were like stinging dry and pain after all the tears had been emptied. Didn't know watching a movie could be such an interesting experience for my body.
One benefit's for sure:
Watching a
sorrowful movie that makes you
cry is certainly a
great release.
