It was 1 in the morning. just got home, hanging from my neck a flash drive i borrowed from my HS friend. i was kinda excited. a bit.
after i took a bath, i connected the drive to the port. copied its content.
"Five Centimeters Per Second"
An anime movie. I saw chunks of previews from my friend while i was at their shop. i was stunned by the visuals. cinematography. the surroundings. effects. but what intrigued me to asking for it was....
Slice of Life.
those kind of stories. watching those seem to flick a spark in your heart for some reason. somehow while watching that anime movie, i realized why it brings that certain "impact" to most people.
that's because. they can relate. somehow. while being an audience to it, you can't help but imagine you in the shoes of the protagonist. or some character in it. it helps you, or it breaks you. help to the fact that solutions can be applicable in real life. break you.. well. you know what i mean. a sad story, tragic, it pricks you like a needle to the heart. and what's more is when you can relate.
leaving that aside. it was a quiet 1 hour of viewing for me. i chose midnight as it was solemn, quiet. no "Wowowee" or noisy cousins to disturb you while watching. and while watching, i culminated to its rich visuals, and interesting story. i internalized and scrutinized what's in it. i appreciated it to a certain extend, but left me quite thinking on my way back to bed. next thing i knew, it rained. weird. the first time in weeks it rained at midnight. perhaps.
is it mocking me?
i don't know.
i grabbed my phone. i messaged her. quite a meaningless concoction for a sentence. my head still aches, and decided it be better to sleep.
