The Pursuit Of Happiness

There are fri-ends.
and then there are friends.
I've got a bunch of friends, but only a few that i can really call FRIENDS.

I met up with one of my FRIENDS and it had been a while since we caught up. There's catching up.
and there's   C    A   T C HING UP^^. 
and i mean that this FRIEND of mine isn't afraid to  C    A   T CH UP^.
and i love him so much because he isn't afraid to cut himself open and show you his guts, ya know?

Some of the people i love are afraid of this (as i'm sure many people in the world are) but i think i can say that i truly see through the people that put their guard up to the world.


Some people look at the world and think like this:
- everything sucks
- nothing is working out
- i hate him
- im jealous of her
- leave me alone!
- ughhh
- this is so goddamn boring.
- when will this end?...
- This life isn't good enough

and then there are people that look at the world and think like this:
- everything is great!
- everything is working out alright 
- we have our differences but i appreciate him in my life
- i wish i could be her, she's wonderful
- i don't like being lonely, let's chat
- wow!
- this is unbearably amazing
- i hope this doesn't end!...
- This life is too good to be true

What kind of person do you want to be?

Speaking Through Art: Part V - Film

I really enjoy film for the main reason that it incorporates so many of my favourite things into one.
Cinematography.
      Music.
             Acting.
         Writing.

But i think the most important out of all of these features of film is the writing. 
the  s c r i p t. 
Script to me isn't solely about the monologue of a character or dialogue between characters.


A well fabricated script, to me, is the +marriage+ - between - the dialogue and the cinematography. Audiences that are oblivious to certain marriages like these in films are not appreciating film for all that it has to offer.
