I just watched "Just Like Heaven" on DVD when I should be studying. I know, I know. Quit the nagging. Heh. It's a really good romantic comedy, and I think it's much better than "Love Actually". The acting's great and the story's just magically creative. If only this would happen in reality, I wouldn't need to bother getting a live girlfriend. Hahaha... I could have one living with me and my parents wouldn't know. But it'd be weird because people would think I'm retarded, talking to air and pretending someone's not there when questioned about it. Overall, I think it's really nice that 2 people can find true love when they've never met in person. It's so touching. I love this movie. I guess I prefer romantic comedies to juvenile comedies like American Pie and Eurotrip. Maybe it's because Reese Witherspoon is acting in it. She's such a great actress. She just fits into her roles so perfectly. She just brings life and colour to her character (I'm not being racist here).

Ok. Now to cover my ass. One, you can't call me gay because I actually love "Just Like Heaven". I can bet you millions of guys love it too, just that they're too cowardly to actually say that they do. Two, I can understand emotions and feelings better than most guys, so I really can understand this movie. I just don't give a shit about stereotypes that guys shouldn't love this genre of movies more than ones with toilet humour and gratuitous nudity, or rather, too much nudity and couples having sex in a Catholic church's confession box. Guys should not be afraid of liking these kind of movies. It's only reasonable. I just don't get it why guys should always rag on those who prefer to be outside of "what they should actually be". It's not people who create the stereotypes. It's actually the people who persecute people who don't fall into the former's category of what the everyone of that gender should actually be like.

Like for example, take a macho-minded guy who rags on other guys who are not so-called "macho" enough, but all he does is critique and do nothing to get the guy to become more macho. Basically, the macho guy is the one who's enforcing the stereotype of what macho guys are - all thougness and talk but no action. Then there are the gays. The idiots want people to accept them as they are, but they keep doing stupid things to screw it all up for themselves. Then there's the Workers' Party(WP) in Singapore. The worst idiots I've heard of so far. "Is that a stereotype?", one might ask. I can say yes to that and more. You see, in wanting to gain support, they contest the PAP on every single thing the PAP does. The WP wants to abolish everything that encourages racial interaction and socializing like the Resident Comittee (RC) corners and study corners, among other stupid ideas. Ok, so what would that do to Singapore? Let's see... Hmmm... That might make us look like Malaysia! No areas in neighbourhoods for racial mixing, large and empty areas all around and no playgrounds for kids under 12 to play at. So you might say that encourages kids to play with themselves. Besides, what is the WP stereotype? Well, for one, it's stupidity, two, it's courage mixed with a shit load of stupidity, and three, it's being too headstrong and stubborn (because they just want to show their seriousness in opposing the PAP, they do their best to discredit them). For the courage mixed with a shit load of stupidity, I can tell you one story.

It all began like this:
One Sunday afternoon I was in Orchard with a group of my friends hanging out beside Cineleisure. It so happened on that on that day the Workers' Party had an illegal gathering outside the main entrance, spouting their propaganda which is akin to that of Communism, without a permit. They were being irritating, shoving phamplets and shouting slogans at people passing by, not to mention since we were hanging out nearby, it was getting pretty annoying. Therefore, we called the police. When the police came, those WP people argued briefly with the police before being threatened with arrest. They then left. About an hour later, while walking towards Le Meridien Orchard, we saw them (WP) again, hawking their wares outside Robinson's. So we called the police again. We thought they were going to be really f**ked this time round. Too bad the police just warned them again and they left. We didn't see them again after that, but last I heard when one of my friends went to Dhoby Ghaut MRT Station to take a train home, those WP people were outside Plaza Singapura. My my... They just don't learn their lessons, do they. Recently I hear that they were up to their shit again, this time outside the ICA(Immigration and Checkpoint Authority) building. They're just a bunch of clowns. Enough said.

Well, I think I covered my ass pretty well. Hmmm... For those who haven't watched "Just Like Heaven" yet, I encourage you to do so. It's a great movie. Worthy of being watched over and over again.
