Why is everything so good in the past? Like, I get that wars are definitely uncool, but before, when there were no phones and internet involved, everyone was in the moment. You can do all the things that you want and still have time. You would write letters, journals and stuff, you would visit vinyl stores with your friends and just discover each others' sense of music, you would go to cafes and literally talk. Now is just so different.

I often wish that I was born in the past, in another country in Europe but with the same family. I guess the only important part of my present is my family. That's something I would never trade for.

It's 12:36am. I still have classes tomorrow (i mean, later) but I can't sleep because I can't recover from the movie I just watched: Before Sunset. Last night I watched the first movie in the trio and comparing it to the second, the first one was definitely better. I watched the second last last year and I couldn't get to the middle because I was so bored. I just started watching when I already have the glimpses of Europe, actually felt eager to see if they had walked in the same streets as I have walked, and it's just that I miss Paris so much. The first movie was very moving and the characters were perfect to me, plus they had their first kiss in Prater where I have had happy memories. It made me get excited to meet someone like Jessie, if ever there's someone to come. That's my ideal romance, by the way. I totally love the idea of falling for someone after knowing them. In most of my experiences, when I meet someone deeply, I just get turned off. That everyone is just similar to each other, sometimes copying the styles in current. No one seemingly interests me with their genuineness. But I am so excited, very looking forward to meet more people with soul and personality.

In Before Sunset, I noticed since the beginning how the characters changed over the years. And it's very realistic. I assumed Celine would still be this gentle and hopeful lady, and Jessie this playful and happy go lucky man. But they grew.

These movies are very ironic and unpredictable, yet quite romantic and heart warming.

I feel sleepy.

(He's) not worth it, anymore.
