imagine me you

For the past few months, my mind alternately went into limbo, excessive imagining. limbo again, and more imagining... I am not sure what I really attained from those "strenuous" activities, but it was fun. Try it:p

I'd gladly share the things that came up from the imagining part, but Im well aware of the concept of OVERSHARING so in true MTRCB tradition I promise to talk about the most innocent of stuff. So here's the story...

That's all folks!

Bwahahaha...

Seriously, I've been imagining among other things that I had copy of this British romantic comedy, Imagine Me and You starring Lena Headey and Piper Perabo. I've been hearing about it for quite some time but since it wasn't exactly commercially released in this mole-led country, I had to content myself with "underground" research for my source. No, I have not been watching spy movies again, and No,I have nothing against moles. I love moles! Except for that kind of mole attached to and taking control of this Tolkien creature.

While imagining is not an evil endeavor, nothing can top the real thing and luckily for me, my friend found a copy of said movie and lent it to me. HAPPINESS! But my 2-month old dvd player had to conk out that week of all weeks. SADNESS. So same friend knowing how annying I can get when restless, threw in her extra dvd player. TOUCHNESS! So home, I went. WATCHNESS!

Now my friend told me that the movie's light and not something you'd usually use for heavy gender information dissemination. I told her, (In lena's knee-weakening voice)"It doesn't matter"... please allow me a moment to feel the kilig again... I have so many heavy stuff going round for me anyway. So light, it is.

In true praning fashion, my worrying over possible nuissances -- unexpected visitors, missing t.v. remote control, blackouts, duty calls, comets falling on our streets, etc -- almost erased my giddyness. Ok, ok I did say "Love makes the world go 'round but without air we're dead" but I can do mushy too!

Obsessiveness pays u know... plus the forces of nature were in a good mood so as soon as i hit the play button, kilig set in... sigh...

I thought that as soon as I get my hands on the dvd, my imaginations would be cut down in half. But no, as I watched the movie and long long after I've returned the dvd player, it only intensified... That Lena Headey. How dare she make my heart beat that fast! And how dare her, being so hot like that! Not when I have told myself just recently " Self, you're a plant. It's less complicated that way." Wasamaterwitme.

And the rest of the Brit cast (and Piper), how dare they make me laugh at their brit sense of humor. I've crossed over from being gay to being ecstatic. Not when Im supposedly depressed -- not sad.

What can I say about the movie? Well it wasn't exactly the don't-forget-me-to-the-highest-level type of movie, but for now, I won't remember anything else.

So the question is, "What happens when an unstoppable force meets an immovable object"?

it's rare (well for me anyway) to actually find someone who watched, let alone like the movie...

i went through hell trying to look for a copy... but well worth it..

ironically enough, when the unstopabble force met the immovable object, the immovable object just had to move.
