i love baby zebra and im dancing in my love mood

I <3 height="344" width="425">

I thought that was it. It's sort of pathetic and lonesome to fall in love with love and not with a homo sapien instead. But whatever, that's the beauty of love. So to shake the blossom pink attack I did my daily mandatory routine ; YouTube-ing. Then I bumped into Twilight OST and....seems like everyone is crazy over Iron & Wine 's Flightless Bird, American Mouth. Hmmm...this is the good thing about OST. It introduces the movie fan to new awesome bands and songs. ALthough it's pretty annoying to read comments like "ooh i love this song! I love Twilight!" or " I love the prom scene, I love this song!" but hey, good thing :) Kudos to Kristen Stewart though for wisely picked up the song for the scene.

And surprisingly people are listening to Radiohead too because "15 Steps" was featured at the end credit of the film. Hmmm... well, I hope they'll put Fugazi, Finch and Broken Social Scene in the upcoming sequel ;)

So after a magnificent film, 2 Feist's songs and rerun of Iron & Wine, I'm falling in love with the atmosphere, with the whole beauty of life, and the beauty of how songs and a movie can boost my endorphin and make me feel good, warm and calm the whole day.

Love, love, love, love, love, love :)

My favourite excerpt from the magnificent movie.

"Sitting there, alone in a foreign country, far from my job and everyone I know, a feeling came over me. It was like remembering something I'd never known before or had always been waiting for, but I didn't know what. Maybe it was something I'd forgotten or something I've been missing all my life. All I can say is that I felt, at the same time, joy and sadness. But not too much sadness, because I felt alive. Yes, alive. That was the moment I fell in love with Paris. And I felt Paris fall in love with me."



And my most favourite segment of the movie.

Gaspard: [in French] Haven't we met? I'm sure I know you. Where do you live? I'm in the 17th. Maybe I've seen you around. You don't talk much. I'm not sure, but... I feel like I've seen you before. You look like a mystical guy. Really, you have a very special aura. You believe in spirits? I'm way into that stuff. Maybe we met in a past lifetime.
Elie: [in French] Light?
Gaspard: [in French] A light.
[lights his cigarette]
Elie: Merci.
Gaspard: It's amazing. As soon as I saw you, I needed to talk. It's like... I don't know. A strong, weird feeling. I thought, if I don't talk to you before I go, I'd be missing out on... something... important. Beautiful. You work in a beautiful place. I didn't want to miss the chance to talk to you. It's dumb, but... Never mind. May I?
[sits down]
Gaspard: You believe in soul mates? Finding your other half? You like jazz? Charlie Parker... and Kurt Cobain. I love him! Whatever. Here's my number. I'd really like to talk with you, if you call me, more seriously and... for longer, especially.
[leaves]
Printer: [in French] What's up?
Elie: I'm not sure, Christian. He gave me this.
Printer: [in French] A phone number?
Elie: I don't know what he was saying. I don't speak French that well. He used a lot of phrases that aren't in my phrase book.
Printer: [in French] Call him and see.
Elie: [takes off running]

Have a love alive weekend everyone! <3

a-love-za
