April Fool’s Day, coincidentally the first saturday in quite a long while where I have some time to myself. Feels good? Yeah, maybe. Well, I cannot lie and say that I’m feeling real good that I have no one to chat over the phone with on a sunny saturday afternoon, and that I have no real goal to accomplish over an afternoon like this. In any case, this shouldn’t be a long post since I’m meeting yuan lin for dinner later.
Erika Sawajiri will looking into the distance prettily in a cheongsam if I were to minimize this window. I really can’t believe she is just 20 years old, same age as me. Hmmz, guess its as someone mentioned, “we’re at an age that everything happens.” True in a way, especially when you talk about celebs being shot into the limelight. Erika is probably unattainable for me, but still, she sits on my desktop. Idol-mania? Probably.
Seriously speaking, she is NOT that cute nor pretty; I believe the role she played as Aya in 1 Liter of Tears really make me sit up and take note. I don’t even think the girl I’ll like in the future will be someone like her, it’ll be someone with her “package” though; Aya’s package to be specific.
Which leads me to think again, were those tears shed while watching the show really my heartfelt feelings about Aya’s story? or did Erika’s looks exaggerate the depth of feelings I had? Been thinking about it… if I were to cast someone half as pretty in that role, would the “theme” or “message” of the show still be conveyed across that strongly? Would so many people still deem it as a “touching” show? I have to say that us humans, are after all, visual people.
Maybe that’s why I still like reading books (worded ones especially). No distortion, just the story, and your interpretation.
Gotta go now, hopefully I can get my story 3/4 done by tonight. Wish me luck; after all, I have trouble trying to craft a blog entry that looks like a girl’s.
I blabber yet again.
