The Day's Final Breath




A lady comes at eventide,
On clouds through the countryside.
You cannot stop her, no one has tried.
Her name is night, the day has died.

She is the nocturnal shadow tide.
Her veil behind her souring, glides.
It spreads the night into the skies.
With the stars in sight, the day has died.

In pure silence she swiftly strides.
Across the moonlit forest floor she flies.
You cannot stop her, no one has tried.
Her name is night, the day has died.

Forrest

I don't cry during those emotional scenes in movies. Never have... But there is this one movie, that got me on the verge of crying.

Forrest Gump.

I saw the movie yesterday after about six or seven years. I'm pretty sure I hadn't understood the movie then as much as I did now. But needless to say, I had absolutely loved the movie even then.

The final scene of the movie, when Forrest is talking to Jenny (who is, you know, six feet underground) is when I couldn't believe how emotional I was getting... The fact that a scene in a movie was just about to make me cry, made me laugh really loud...
I couldn't believe how beautifully executed that one scene was (so was the movie, but I'm talking about the scene here...)
Damn! The way he cries in it! YIKES!

If there is someone out there who's reading this and hasn't seen this movie... I honestly pity you. This movie is a masterpiece... And Tom Hanks is a true artist.

Blame Canada


What is going on?
Only time can answer that question... (Or God... But what are the chances of that happening :P)

For the past two years, I've been confused whether I'm going to go study in Canada or not. There have been two such times where i was 99% sure that I was going. Then a week after that, well, I don't want to talk about it...

For the past 6 or 7 months, I was 100% sure that I am not going.
In fact just up until last week I was certain I'm not going. Then my Dad came and said our Canada Migration Visa is working out and that I should go study in Canada.

:|

My mom does NOT want me to go to Canada for various reasons.

I'm somewhere in between. A little part of me wants to go study there, but there is a part of me that wants to stay... Again, for various reasons...

Looks like only time will tell whether it is in my 'destiny' to go to Canada or not...
