But after watching Woody Allen's "WHATEVER WORKS" at night, I felt so much better, except that 1/4 of the film made me guess what was going to happen next in the plot (no! Woody Ai Lun's movie actually guesses what's next..) I really, really have to say, "I love this movie from the bottom of my heart." I even got a standing ovation for it!
That's right, 3 years ago, I finally woke up: I don't care what it is, I think it's alright, so I found the current me - no secret, I like the current self, I love it to death.
oh oh oh~ everyone who's seen WHATEVER WORKS says it's Sheldon's old NYC version of Life Outbreak, but I don't think it's that surprising, like I met at a friend's party When classmate R did not know that he was studying for a Ph.D. in the Chinese Academy of Sciences, so what? One of liberal arts, one of science, and departments that can’t be beaten by eight poles, there are all kinds of bizarre hobbies, even eating habits and values... Yes, yes, at that time, we both said: "What's the matter? Why talk about it? You have to deal with so much in a relationship." That's obviously 'entropy', a chemical reaction! Hmm~~ Now it seems that R and I are both "don't care", the universe is so big, time is so short, and life will end unexpectedly at any time, why not make some time to fall in love with you? Besides, I never disliked his constellation.
But when R and I had to be separated for a while to cool off with each other (most people say that, it's just a cover for a cold love here), I'm still who I am, that is, I'm still living 'this way', just Like when he called me in the afternoon to ask if I could have dinner, I would say the same thing I would say even if Humphrey Bogart invited me to dinner: "Sorry, I won't eat after lunch." ——Other girls would beat me because I dared to answer like that. Having dinner together is obviously a sign of easing the relationship, but I still say no to others according to my HIGH lifestyle, hoho~ Even if the sky falls , I am also a person who does not eat after lunch.
I love the ending of WHATEVER WORKS so much! Watching that middle-class couple find their love and live happily ever after, I'm really happy for them: even though the wife is living an artistic love life with two men, the husband no longer represses the secret and makes it public Comrade - but so what? As long as you are happy and feel that this is your happiness in life, the rest, those worldly people, those people, who cares about them, can they live in your place? Can they replace your three meals a day? Can they make you happy? After all, in the end, life is not about having fun by yourself. You have to be happy first, and you can influence other people to be happy with you. But if some people still say, "You can be happy like this, then what should we do?" It's very simple , you can say to them: "Then you go to heaven~" - a religious joke, but if heaven is really a place that only the pure-hearted can enter, as far as I am concerned, I would rather not go. Turning your back and ignoring these people is the best way.
Ah~~~ I also heard JAZZ from the BIGBAND era, and the name of Fred Astaire - Fred was the real Jazz era before Kim Kelly's 'Singing in the Rain' The king of song and dance! And one of the few cities on earth that I love - NY, New York! These elements constitute the reason why I like Woody Allen's films, and the most important thing is the 'true meaning of life' that he expresses in the films.
It's nothing to be in threesomes, nothing to be gay, nothing to marry the Berlin Wall - as long as you're happy.
Finally, two words about my progress with classmate R: I didn't agree to have dinner with him, but I promised to watch "2012" with him next week - everything in the world has a beginning and an end, and what I have to do now is to let myself Have fun in this universe.
As the saying goes: WHATEVER WORKS~ Just be your true self.
