congragulate me i finally managed to get myself to watch Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
there is no silence says:
and, fancy that, it makes 3rd on my prestigious list of favorite movies
there is no silence says:
Im actually tempted to move it higher on the list, bumping Amelie and even High Fidelity down but thats such a shocking and dramatic response that it makes me uneasy so i'll leave it at the much more reasonable "3rd place"
there is no silence says:
but yea...it was good...
there is no silence says:
haunting is my one word to describe it
there is no silence says:
for about an hour afterward my mind was so blank and shocked and...i dont quite know how to describe it, but anyway, it was so whatever it was that i went outside in the hopes of climbing a tree and just sitting for the rest of the day
there is no silence says:
unfortunately the trees were all barren, and those that werent are simply not for climbing
there is no silence says:
so i wandered around the campus trying to find somewhere peaceful and separate but there simply isnt anything to beat a tree
there is no silence says:
although a rooftop would have done ok, and i found one, then attempted to climb up top of it
there is no silence says:
but as i stepped carefully on the metal/tin shed roof it cracked slightly so after less than an instant's consideration I got back off
there is no silence says:
and right as i had someone walked past, so the area wasnt really removed enough
there is no silence says:
i had to settle for the student center where i spent the rest of the time up until about 6 staring off into space trying to remember anything
there is no silence says:
but limiting myself to only pictures, no words
there is no silence says:
its not as easy an exercise as one might think
there is no silence says:
for the most part i invent images in my head when i "remember" something because I'm really mainly text based. Pictures that float by are actually reproductions, interpretations, they simply happen to be very near correct.
there is no silence says:
this time however, after a few failed attempts, i managed to actually *see* in memorium little stolen scenes from my room
there is no silence says:
my old room i mean, the one that i havent seen since freshman year, where my dad used to live
there is no silence says:
and it shocked me so much I cried and then lost the moment, being quite unable to reproduce the effect afterwards
there is no silence says:
morale of the story: eternal sunshine of the spotless mind is good
there is no silence says:
alternate (and albiet more interesting) morale: remembering clear images of the past is painful but in an odd nostalgic way
there is no silence says:
...those should both be "moral"

Go read Smk zn. It is worth it. In ways. Trust me...or don't. But either way, just do that.
A tree is good! Our trees are green and ready to climb in. Wish you were here! We miss you. antieS
