Spent.

I just finished the jigjig due next week. Yay.

At the same time, I watched some old movies on youtube.

I watched those once, on HBO, back when we still had that channel. The movies have stuck to me ever since.

Especially Dogfight.

The tagline reads :

The rules of the dogfight were simple : Everyone puts in fifty bucks. And the guy with the "ugliest" date wins.

I don't know why. That movie just - I have no words.

It's probably my most favourite Oldies movie. 1986. It's a year older than I am.

edit/: ye lah ye lah. younger. sheesh.

And I found myself crying when Birdlace ran off to rejoin the army in Vietnam, leaving Rose (his "ugly" date) behind. -_- And I think I mourned for River Phoenix then.

Ooo. Pimple.

Such. A. Waste. Bloody bloody waste.

He was only 23 when he died of a drug overdose.

If you had lived Mr Phoenix, I bet you'd be giving Mr Depp a run for his money.

Tribute. :)

Now I just need to watch Rebel Without a Cause (Mr Dean), and Gross Anatomy (Mr Modine) and I'm good.

Whoopie. RWaC is on youtube. Will keep that for another project.

And I think I have plans tmr/today, although they are quite hazy right now.

~*~

I had my first ever Murphey day just now (so far), and to talk about it would just be reminding me what I went through (which I did already go through with several "lucky" people). So yeah. I think the whole Oldies thing is a direct result of that.

Not to mention I actually kept scanning books in the library today, just to see how many I could borrow.

I got to the eighth book and realized that :

1) I did not have a bag.

2) I didn't want to read about Ghosts OR prom dresses. -_-

So now that I'm done, I will.. pack up and go to sleep.

Unsurprisingly, I have a headache. Har.

Good night/morning world.

/And I don't know why, I can't keep my eyes off of you.
