Oh subtitles.
I'm curious about watching "Lust, Caution", but since they have no subtitles ('It's a Taiwanese movie showing in Taiwan, why would we need English subtitles?') I have a feeling that I'd spend much of the movie being completely screwed over by my lack of understanding.
Also my director says I'm not allowed to watch it because I'm not married. B-but why?
Jolin's movie/music video was...interesting. Again, lack of readable subtitles meant that I had to guess at what was going on. Given that there didn't seem to be a real plot or any reality, for that matter - it looked more like a visual thing than something with a real story - it was passable. Knowing what was going on, however, may have helped things along. I only liked the first one: it was the only one that made sense and it was saaaaad.
In other news, I realize that I haven't replied to any of my e-mail over the past two weeks.
Also, it sounds like that I just screwed over all of my academic references. This is really depressing and I feel like I should just give up now because now I have no academic references and I'll never be able to go into grad school and get a Masters a become a library/archivist and instead I'll go home and go back to a life of getting told what to do which will make me bitter and miserable for the rest of my life.
...okay that's it I'm going to bed and hoping I can be more positive tomorrow.
