Whether you call my heart affectionate, or you call it womanish: I confess, that to my misfortune, it is soft.
~Ovid (BC 43-AD 18) Roman poet.
Yesterday I watched Twilight.
With all the talk going on and constant mention by Aini, it's impossible to hold off from it.
The movie was ordinary but I think that to truly understand the story we have to see it from the author's narrative: that is by reading the book.
But I'm thinking that if I were to read it, I'd start wishing again. I never even finished Ayat-ayat Cinta because of the same reason. The book is there, I do want to read it, but I don't think I can take it.
So I'd settle with the movie, for now. Even just by watching the movie I was moved by the character Edward Cullen (Aini, I totally get it now why you're so in love with him! I am too! haha), so by reading the book I know I'd fall for a fictitious character.
I don't know why gazillion other girls fall for Edward, but for me it's because of the fact that he actually wants to be with Bella with such intensity in a way that seem to me not degrading himself as a guy. It is as if he is truly sincere. He actually wants to hear her stories, being genuinely interested and caring. Loving her in the only way he knows how: Vampire-style :p

Haha, I think I'd stop now. This is getting ridiculous ;)
p/s: I have a sudden urge to go to the beach, even if I know the monsoon season is ongoing now. I like staring out the horizon, seeing the waves come to the sand to break into tiny white bubbles. The end nowhere in sight and possibilities are endless. By the ocean, worries float away as time stood still. Hopes and prayers are sent above to set the heart free from the ties of the world that hold it down.
Yes, I miss the ocean.

Ada ke betul2 some1 yg mcm edward... Pastu ada ke org yg bole tahan temptation mcm edward? Kalau ada sila bg tau.... Sy nak tanya sesuatu kepada anda! Keh keh keh.
megadrama,
rasanya xde la org yg mcm edward, he exist only in dreams n fantasy formed by wishful thinking.
yg bleh tahan temptation tu rasanya ada, but very few and far between.
tp, just sbb nk tau, nk tanya apa sbnrnye?
