05:23 pm - to love and be loved in return
Step aside, Ghost World.
I have a new favorite movie. Well, one that ranks first among my favorites. Hello, Moulin Rouge! (2001)
With all the musical clashing, artsy visuals, and sweeps of emotion all throughout the movie, this romantically dramatic musical is all-around candy for the senses.
And, I mean, come on, with old men singing Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit" while complete sound ecstasy takes over you, this movie's guaranteed to please you. Besides, there's sort of man on man action when two men do a funny chase sequence while singing "Like a Virgin".

01:12 am - only love can ease the pain
I don't despise Maladroit.
Someday, I'm going to own a shirt or hoodie with this printed on it. It would definitely own.
In other news, my parents and I watched The Air I Breathe today (well, technically, it would be yesterday, but what the heck). Basic plot (thank you to my movie make out buddy IMDB.com): A drama based on an ancient Chinese proverb that breaks life down into four emotional cornerstones: happiness, pleasure, sorrow and love. A businessman (Whitaker) bets his life on a horse race; a gangster (Fraser) sees the future; a pop star (Gellar) falls prey to a crime boss (Garcia); a doctor (Bacon) must save the love of his life.
I was quite nervous at first, when I saw (heard, actually) the dialogue that took place in the bathroom, which butterfly-lovin' Whitaker overheard. Holy freaking crap. It's like the f word decided to rain on us. I kept on whispering to my mom if she wants to leave, but she said she likes it so far. I asked because I was the one who chose the film. My dad slept.
Verdict ('cause I'm not really a long review type person): Excellent. I found it interesting and pretty moving. Reminded me of Crash, though. (Not that that's a bad thing.)
