Iron men, choices and fairy tales.

Considering the circumstances of my current life, how unrequited love can be. Robert Downey Jr. and a fictional iron suit made from polygons and textures were the only things keeping me happy. Yes, Iron Man 2 is the only thing that kept my cheeriness. The movie gets a solid 9.5 out of 10 from me. The story was great, the actors, especially Robert Downey Jr. (Tony Stark/Iron Man) and Mickey Rourke (Whiplash/Ivan Vanko) were THE best. Downey Jr. who played Tony gave the character it's witty and cynical persona, his acting made me feel as if Tony Stark was real, while Rourke in the other hand, aced the "bad mother fucker" persona, him being Whiplash, a villain created especially for the movie, made Iron Man 2 as one of the most innovative movies ever, since not every comic-to-silver screen movie has an original villain. Of course the movie has an outstanding cast, mainly consisting of Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow and Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury. The only thing that didn't win me over was the final battle. It could have been longer and more thrilling, but the whole experience of the movie makes up for it.

Alas, after the movie, I went back into depression mode. I figured if I went to the arcades , I could release the lamenting side of me on pixelated bad guys. But no, it didn't work well, I am still rather down, maybe it's time for me to move on, I dunno. But watching 2 of my closest friends "expressing" their affection right behind me while I was shooting really broke my concentration, and made me realize, not everyone lives a life of fairy tales. I don't have love as easy as theirs, maybe I never will.

I'm sorry, It's just that the plethora of emotions dwelling within my sea of soul are consuming me. I should be an AM happy that I helped my friends in a way. But at the same time, jealousy overcomes me, no, not because one of my female friend is smitten, it's the fact that other people have better lives than me.

I can't disclose who were they, but I think they're satisfied. And for that, I have naught but a brief respite.

Maybe...just maybe, I should just move along.

P.S. the world is not enough.

Insanity of the Day:

This conversation was via text message, before Iron Man 2 started when we were already seated:

Me: Let the magic happen. *sends to Ritchie and Nathalie*

Nat: *replies* Shit you la.

Me: *replies to Nat* lol, DO EET!

Nat: *replies* Siao.

Me: *replies to Nat* Can la~ DO EET *thumbs up*

Me: *sends to Ritchie* DO EET

Ritchie: *replies* screw you

Kindness Has No Perks.

To be frank, I'm the kind of person who believes that if someone does something good to another, he/she will be rewarded one way or another with good in the future. It is somewhat leaning towards the Karma system, in my opinion.

But yesterday I realized that kindness does nothing, one moment I'm getting "thank you"s from someone, and the next moment where I accidentally cracked up a lame joke, that person lies to me and ignores me. That's a nice "reward".

Then today, I was just trying to help a friend who's in a pitch with the discipline teachers by telling him to calm down and don't just quit from the prefectorial board from one small mishap. He listened. But when the angry teacher walked back into class, I got lectured for trying to solve a problem. "ARE YOU TRYING TO BE SOME SORT OF HERO, JONATHAN?!" the teacher shouted. I didn't reply. As I always mentioned, adults are ridiculously fatuous. So I don't really care.

No matter, I'm still a individual with firm beliefs and I will not yield. If the risks of being kind are so, then so be it. Now I have to go to that cursed Economics tuition.

ciao.

Oh Star...

"Oh star, fall down on me..... let me make a wish upon you...."

Those are the first words in the lyrics of Oh Star by Paramore. And that sentence keeps playing itself in my head, over and over like a broken record.

Oh the things I wished to be granted. I wished I was one step closer in reaching her heart. I wished she wouldn't be so ignorant. I wished my decisions are always right. I wished I wasn't born into a household and raised by greedy jackasses. I wished I could undo the wrongs I did in my life. I wish the world isn't superficial.

Sorry, for some reason, I'm feeling rather down today. I'm not sure why. But listening to this song, it just made me want to blog, about my wishes that will never come true.

P.S. Life isn't fair.
