where is thy eternal sunshine?

it's amazing. gives quite a different perspective on soulmates. shows what "meant to be" truly means....okay, i know you get it. see, i just watched Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and i must admit, it has paved the way for my resetting of "fave movie" standards. in fact, i'll probably edit that list after i finish writing this. forgive me if my thoughts will seem unorganized. i just need to jot it all down before i lose anything.

it's amazing how you could despise almost every inch of someone yet love them for that; how you feel insane when you're with someone, in both terrifying and beautiful ways; how you try to erase someone out of your life forever yet find that all the powers of the world conspire to show you that you can never completely get rid of the pencil marks on paper, not even with the best Staedler clay eraser.

now i still don'e get the title [though i find it very catchy]. i've a feeling i missed out on important conversations. darn hearing problem. i'll have to buy a DVD..heehee. nice excuse, huh?

***i'm making a mental note to start reading poems: must be part of that quote from Alexander Pope's Eloisa to Abelard...in the movie, i mean. there might actually be something to poems. they're inspiring and emotional but don't have a complicated and detailed story incorporated so you won't get hung up and insanely wish that all the happy scenes were actually taking place in your life. oh wait, that might just be me. pardon my psychotic depression.
