And I do not think 12 Storeys is that bad after all. Even if it seems obligatory that Meng should have a breakdown, I kind of like what he says: "What about me?! What about me?!" I am thinking of going off to watch a Japanese drama online now... Tatta Hitotsu no Koi. One and Only Love. Don't know a thing about BGL. But I'm off to watch it.
Don't like this post very much. But let's see what I have to say when I get back.
At least I stopped driving myself mad with doing nothing, and went on Facebook (again) and decided I would get one of my many mini videos uploaded. It's uploading now. And now I'm about to find a drama episode (another one) to occupy myself with. I watched House MD just now. Gonna switch to Japanese channel now.
YAWN.
Facebook Video Uploader is crapz.
Feature article - 1,154 words. My guess is it's about three-quarters done. I hope it's good. I made some comments on time and place in there. Universal themes, aren't they. So is it going to be impressive or what. I don't know.
I haven't talked about the film characters. I've just talked about place. Looks like the word count is not enough for me to talk about both. Isn't it too superficial to just talk about place in his work? I'll squeeze in a bit of commentary about how his characters struggle in their place then. But place is a pretty major thing in his work, isn't it. Mee Pok Man, 12 Storeys, Be With Me. Yeah. The places he records in S'pore... I feel most for Mee Pok Man's scenery, I guess. Maybe the generation after me is gonna feel more for Be With Me's scenery. When the time comes for them to reminisce about phone texting or something, after another more advanced form of messaging comes along. Like MMS. But what's there to miss about phone texting. Goodness. Is there lesser and lesser to feel nostalgic about? Maybe I wouldn't know. I didn't grow up with a mobile phone as my plaything. Lolz.
I missed using short-form text though. In fan fiction.
