//slack- infected with the lazy bug!//

Recently I just felt like sleeping.
Even though I did not do anything much that would take up much energy.
But 10 hours of sleep just isn't enough.
I wake up feeling sleepy all over again.
If it wasn't the fact that I'm meeting my friends, I wouldn't force myself to stay awake.
Strangely, when i forced myself to keep awake, the sleepy bug didn't bother me again.

Anyway, today I went for movies and shopping at Amk hub. More importantly, the early celebration of bel's birthday=)

me, bel, lyn

On board 86, the bus went passed aj and that feeling of nostalgia overwhelmed me.

Even more so during my return journey, when I saw Mdm Jean Lee lugging her seemingly heavy bag, wearing the same white-and-blue striped shirt and a jean skirt.

It was as if time has rewinded itself.

Although sometimes I really did not enjoy my two years there, I was still reminscing about the past.

I couldn't take my eyes of block 11, where i spent alot of time in-between lessons at the corridor looking down at the mini fountain, lost in my thoughts, until the next tutor came in.

It seemed like yesterday when I was standing at the corridor, looking at the buses passing by, hoping I could be one of the passengers, away from this place which was slowly sapping away my energy and happiness.

Anyway, back to the movie.

I had no idea why christabel chose to watch "I now pronounce you Chuck and Larry".

Afterall it's rated M18, containing homosexual theme.

But then again, she did not know this beforehand.

Usually I steer clear of M18 unless...you know...there's violence and gore.

Like war movies?

Lol. I guess I'm sadist but I just want to know what causes people to kill each other.

But recently, there's nothing much to watch anyway, just some average shows...

The truth is, I was not disappointed by the movie.

In fact, it is quite inspiring!

Synopse:

Two great friends Larry and Chuck are both firemen. This is despite the fact that both live different lifestyles. Larry- an overweight middle-aged man, a doting father, who doesn't know how to cook. Chuck- a good-looking flirtatious playboy. Repeated times of saving fire has made Larry realise he may just die anytime. Larry's wife died and he found out that in order for him to change his govt fund beneficiary from his wife to his children, he has to marry a new wife or get a domestic partner (otherwise know as gay) There was once during their fire-saving task when Chuck was saved by Larry. Chuck swore to repay Larry for his favour. Thus Larry's trust in Chuck made him propose to Chuck to pretend to be his domestic partner.

The hilarious part was when govt officers came to check up on their relationship and the duo tried means and ways to convince him they are genuinely gay. (no obscene acts though)

Then they went to consult this gorgeous female lawyer whom Chuck was attracted to.

Deep as their friendship was, Chuck refused to admit his attraction to the lawyer so as to not expose the scam they were in.

In fact, Chuck babysat Larry's kids whenever the latter was on duty.

Larry's son proved to be a disappointment to Larry becuz he preferred to take part in his sch's musical than watched a baseball match. In fact, Larry's son could sing, tap-dance and even do a split! He was very much feminine, hence Larry kept forcing him to do the opposite.

Meanwhile, once their gay relationship was found out by the rest at the fire station, their colleagues all shunned them except for a ferocious-looking guy who was truly grateful that he could now face the fact that he himself, is a homosexual.

These reminded me of the fact that whatever we do, we should face ourselves truthfully and not pretend to be someone that we're not. be true. be yourself.

Also, the film highlighted that in American, there's still vocal anti-gay activists while Canada is recognising gay marriages.

Through this unusual experience of being a "gay", Chuck realises that people should not discriminate against homosexuals.

What's the difference between straight and gay?

As Chuck puts it, "Nothing, we're all humans".
