Happy Single and Awareness Day

Today is Valentine's Day or Single and Awareness Day for both of the status.

Whether if it's single or in a relationship, life still goes on. No big deal. It's the day where everyone find reasons to booze, party, have sex (make love cause it's V day????), make profits (restaurant, cinemas, florists, sweet confectioneries and so on) and more that one can think of.

I'm going to spend the whole day for myself (obviously).
Watching lots of break up movies, horror movies, action movies..maybe?
Flipping my tutorial questions just to get those curse away.
Finish my forever unfinished activities...reading my novel and magazines.
Sleeping.
Looking for remote control.
Downloading unnecessary stuffs just to satisfy my pleasure of slowing down the computer.
Chatting with whoever is still on the line.
Cleaning up the moods and move on with a new strategy.
Irritate my brothers which ended up messy house.
Listening to my songs till I'm deaf tone.
Stupid things to do.

Last night, I watched Japanese horror movie alone without any human presence. Wasn't that scary at all. Every ghost appearance was predicted and the victim's story wasn't that mysterious and stupid theories. I don't know why I spent my time finish watching that instead I could have watched The Nanny sitcoms.
All the actress look aneroxic physically but they own a healthy pretty face (that is where make up got their credits).
This horror movie is dark and not much suspense.
Ghosts are not scary enough.
Trying to make their unique ghost sound ala Ju-On which was unsuccessful.
Ending is sad.
Everyone die in the end.
Stupid theories (my own thoughts).
What is it have to do with the little girl (more of like backdrop suspense)
The main actress mother had no explanation why is she there
Stupid theories
Bad plot
Too much complain from me.

That is why I claimed that 'The Ring' and 'Shutter' are still the best Asian Horror movies. (had the best ghosts ever)
Western horror movie is SLOW or either have to involve with physically looking shit creatures.
Except for 'The Exorcist' (freaking 360 degrees of head spinning and please get the uncut one if you tend to watch it) and 'Poltergeist' (they are here)..maybe the 'Sixth Sense' (Haley Joel Osment is adorable)
Actually, I couldn't find anymore good horror movies.
It all depends on the director's imagination and creation for suspense scenes.
Just like the Pang brothers movie C+ detective...not a ghost movie but they manage to create suspense that sounded like ghost movie (in the end, they still have ghost appearing normal).
Maybe I'm numb to ghost movies.
Maybe I've heard too much of ghost stories.
Maybe I almost experienced one.

Somehow, I still have the urge to watch the movie over again. 'Love Collage'...if I ever start watching again, it would have to be the 6 or 7 times. Thanks to JS for downloading that movie. Too bad there are no subtitles and I'll just learn Japanese manually. Haha...
But, I can guess their lines as this is like god knows how many times I watched this movie. It's a good movie for me. Not any of your typical love story and it is not love story to me. Something that associated with my interests. I welcome to those people who have watched that movie and would like to share it with me.
Watch it in YouTube.

Thanks to JS.
