Money

From up there we have fallen

Because those without you are broken

You say it's worth every penny

Your taste is so sweet to my lips

Care to leave me some tips

I would need your company

I've got a plan to solve the crisis

But it involves your nemesis

You run this world with such glory

You've got everyone confused

For you, i'll stand accused

Are you really that blind, honey?

Epic Ending Scenes

Some people think that first impressions are important, then what about last impressions?

I really enjoy movies that end with a twist or just something so beautiful it makes the rest of the movie irrelevant.

Here are some movie endings that I think are amazing! (It took me a while to find good quality/English subtitles, so watch them!)

Both movies are from director Wong Kar-Wai

I think that just the 30 seconds ending to these movies > avatar

Chungking Express
-the quality wasn't the best and the audio is a bit delayed
-Start watching from 7:45
-Yes its Tony Leung and Faye Wong!!!

Fallen Angels

- Yes it's Takeshi Kaneshiro (Jing Cheng Wu)

-Start from 2:07

How many of you thought I was going to post ''Lost In Translation"? :-)

Innocence

Rien n'est plus doux aussi que de s'en revenir
Comme après de longs ans d'absence,
Que de s'en revenir
Par le chemin du souvenir
Fleuri de lys d'innocence
Au jardin de l'Enfance.

Mais rien n'est plus amer que de penser aussi
A tant de choses ruinées !
Ah ! de penser aussi,
Lorsque nous revenons ainsi
Par sentes de fleurs fanées,
A nos jeunes années.

Lorsque nous nous sentons névrosés et vieillis,
Froissés, maltraités et sans armes,
Moroses et vieillis,
Et que, surnageant aux oublis,
S'éternise avec ses charmes
Notre jeunesse en larmes !

Je ne s'avais pas comment décrire ce sentiment, alors voici un extrait de « Le jardin d'antan» d'Émile Nelligan

I will make sure the expiration date is set to yesterday.

Classical Conditioning

I am one of those who do not appreciate going to sleep because its BORING
I always need to be entertained before going to bed or else I feel like I am missing out on something like.
Right now.
I am supposed to be asleep but I was bored so I am writing you this post

However, I have trained myself to fall asleep because otherwise I would be the main theme of "28 days later"
I used classical conditioning to train myself to fall asleep every time I think of "what I should wear tomorrow"
In non-scientific terms, classical conditioning was discovered by a dude called Pavlov when experimenting on dogs
The dogs always heard a bell right before getting fed
So everytime they heard the bell, their saliva was going crazy and they were automatically hungry
Basically the anticipation of the result creates the same effect as the result

I trained myself to think about what I should wear the next day right before I fall asleep that way, when I really need to fall asleep, I just think: what do I wear tomorrow???

Sadly, this method works too well because I literally feel sleepy during the day whenever I think of clothes I should wear the next day.. this even happened to me in the shower! I try to avoid thinking about it but the more I try to avoid it the more I think about it

Psychology!

Food Court

I like listing things a lot, like: Top Ten lists, Advantages/Disadvantages and making music playlists for every occasion
Also, every time I read one of those lists I usually start from the end!

Here are the Advantages/Disadvantages of "Eating Alone at School"

Advantages:
-Not having to share your food if you really enjoy it
-Eating at the pace you wish to
-No criticism on what you are eating

Disadvantages:
-Expectations of entertainment during eating are most likely very low
-Taking the space of a whole table for one person when everyone is looking for a place to eat
-Awkward feeling that you should be eating with a group/talking to peers

PS: the picture is a great representation of our nutrition habits. I wish I was raised junk-food /GMO/Trans Fat/Salt free!

Death of Polaroid?

I happen to be a fan of Polaroid Pictures, but i think that this type of photography is drawing dead.
The main reason for their lack of popularity is (in my opinion) because:
1. People can now easily photoshop the grungy-look that polaroid pictures provide
2. People do not enjoy carrying photographs on them right after they take a picture

Anyway, right now people seem to like taking pictures of polaroid pictures and creating that picture in another picture effect!

However, I would like to point out one thing that annoys me in photography, it's people who think they are taking artistic pictures when really all they have is a super expensive camera + lense. Have you noticed that these people usually take a picture of themselves with their camera aiming for a shot (super pro-like pose) haha!

Expiration Date

Why does everything need an expiration date? Can we not rely on anything that will not expire?
If there wasn't any expiration date on a can of food, would you enjoy eating it because it is reliable or would you take it for granted because it will not expire?

Here is a quote from the movie '' Chungking Express''

"If memories could be canned, would they also have expiry dates? If so, I hope they last for centuries."
