I'm going to kick myself for saying this once the time really comes, but right now I really feel that I could do with uni starting. I'm drenched in carefree bliss but I think I could do with having something to do besides watching my weeks go by without achieving anything. Having said that, I never found academic pursuits particularly meaningful anyway and my favourite thing in school was hearing the final school bell. I'm not making sense.
After getting very disappointed with Sofia Coppola's Virgin Suicides, her Lost in Translation (2003) made me do an about turn. The characters' estrangement no doubt in ways led to my above rant. The movie was exquisite in its simplicity and I can't believe I've overlooked the movie until now!
