guess im back here not long after i've dropped my last entry a couple of days back. having insomnia these few weeks, just can't sleep even when im feeling tired and my mind telling me i go lay on my bed. well, just to lie on the bed, then my mind would spin. yesh spin. thoughts would swirl and revolve in a imaginary twister and i could barely slip into slumber.
set my iPod on sleep mode of 10mins and repeating the same song which is currently Damien Rice's The Blower's Daughter. yea, the song title would give you a typical reaction of "huh?", first heard the song off the movie Closer starring Natalie Portman *swoons*, Jude Law, Julia Robert and another English fella whose name slipped my mind. the song is relatively simple in its lyrics with the verse :
I can't take my eyes off you (NO, its not that eardrums-gnawing Carlsberg ad jingle) refraining over and over. but the way the singer sang it. you could feel the sadness, the tinge of bitterness, the yearning and wanting - at least its my intepretation. haha. its a quirk of mine to sleep in total darkness and silence. i'll only doze off to music when im dead tired. so its not my intention to sleep to that song... just to grasp the feelings he's transpiring.
back to the movie, didnt catch it when its showing in the theatres cos my movie kakis either weren't available or caught it already. well, i missed out alot of shows due to that. i havent caught Madagascar when i suppose the whole world have watched it, probably that's an exaggeration, just the whole Singapore perhaps? whatever. its a show of betrayal, acceptance, then betrayal. basically, i like it. thanks to fab for the dvd who knew i would like it. the story is actually so-so just that the strength of the acting carried it through. decided my next gf would be Natalie Portman and no one else. wahaha. alright - this IS an exaggeration. but her acting really blew me away, totally different and much much better from the placid Queen Amidala/Padme in Star Wars Epi III.
right, the momentum is dying, probably end here. but that's not a guarantee i would fall asleep after this, maybe more turning tossing flipping flopping, more thinking imagining pondering floundering.
nitez people. hope you all cant sleep too. *grinz*

Parting is such sweet sorrow,
That I shall say 'Good night' till it be morrow.
