LL (not 林立老师) called. Perhaps she knew I needed that. I could feel that she was trying not to sound too much like a counsellor, because like she said, according to the code of ethics, a counsellor is not supposed to counsel his or her friends or family. I appreciate that, because she regards me as a friend. While talking to her, I admit, my tears were threatening to fall. I managed to hold them back. If anything, that has always been the only thing I'm best at doing. She asked me many questions, to which we have no answers eventually. I guess I did not expect any solutions in the first place, I am just glad she made me feel better. On my way home just now, I felt a heartache. I am not trying to be figurative. I did feel the pain. It's just that I'm uncertain if that was due to the pollutants in the air these days or... I have been too emotionally battered of late.

 

Enough of self-wallowing, if that's all I have been doing.

 

I caught Switch yesterday. It was as bad as the reviews have mentioned. Bad plot, bad editing, some bad acting. I am not surprised why it backlashed. The director placed too much focus on the effects, which are really good, but at the expense of the storyline. The only reason that kept me awake throughout the movie had to be Andy Lau. I was just hoping the other highlight could have been Sammi instead of.... Ahh ok. I shall wait for Blind Detective.

 

I tried Street Fighters 4 at the arcade yesterday. Finally. Been lacking the courage because I do not usually try games I am not confident of playing. It was a good experience. Awesome graphics that certainly enticed me to play more. And I miss that adrenaline. It worked like catharsis. I shall try Marvel VS Capcom 3 soon. Phoenix!
