MOVIE---The brothers Grimm






Monica asked me to accompany her in a party held at a Mid-level apartment, in fact, she had been invited by her handsome French penpal...and his girlfriend. Thirty minutes before the party I refused to come since it was windy so hard that all I want is to stay in my cozy room with a cup of hot tea, just to receive a long emotional lecture on the meaning of 'a friend in need is a friend indeed'. Then I decided to come even it was pouring knives outside.

MOVIE---The Skeleton Key

It was mid-autumn, one more weekend with Derek. He want to persuade his boss to suspend his journey to Malaysia so he could spend the October holiday with his parents, who now live with their eldest son and the baby granddaughter in a newly developed spacious apartment. Derek himself is highly adaptable, compared with me he eat nothing, and he would lie on the table or the floor for the night day after day if there are no bed. Again, the considerate man will leave to another country far away from me, and again, it is me who suggest him to pursue a brand new working surrounding.

I choose to go to the movies after a lonely and boring Monday morning at lab, I need some exciting plot. I was a little late for the ticket but I felicitate myself that I didn't miss it. Even I know it is impossible to exchange the soul like that, not to mention making use of others' young body to continue the life forever, I could not put the images of the black couple out of my mind at night !
