Burn After Reading

It's a movie with stylish plot that creates mess out of nothing.
The wonderful thing about the movie is that it doesn't pretend to be a smart movie,
it plainly admits its absurdness and nonsense.

I was struggling to understand the movie for the first 20-30 minutes. I found the early part of the movie to be rather tedious.

But once we get to the part where Brad Pitt talks about their new discovery, a top secret 'shit' that could change his fortune- I knew I was on for a fun ride.

The story is mainly about ordinary people who try to be better and happier folks, using their own ways and means.
And in reality, some people truly go thru crazy and absurd ways just to be better and happier.

si mahasiswa NTU yg bunuh diri itu denger2 namanya david. sigh.. mgkn final year presssure was too much to him. jadi inget masa2 kerjain final year project, tinggal 3 bulan dan gua maseh blank. untung ngga masuk berita ky dia. life is a funny thing. well since there is a chance that this may not be a simple suicide, lets not assume so. maybe there's a truth behind this. duh.. jd inget kalo di conan trus dia bilank, "ini bukan bunuh diri.. ini adalah kasus pembunuhan!" jadi serasa mao jadi detektip -_-

Father

I am reading the book "Wild at Heart". One of the most striking points that the author made was that of how many, if not almost all, men are most severely wounded by their own father. You would have thought that your dad will be the one who believes in you when everyone else is doubting you. You expect him to do so. Coz when he does, you know that it ain't matter even if the rest are against you. So when it turns out that he is siding with those who doubt you. It hurts the most. It kills off your hope. It strips you off your courage and belief to be a real man. Because the man who is suppose to show you how to be a real man, the one whose approval matters the most.. does not side with you. He loves you.. yes. But a father's role is not simply to love and nurture. He is more than just that. He is your assurance, stronghold, strength. He leads you into adventure, he fights with you side by side, he shows you how to rescue a beauty. When your father of flesh and blood ca...
