so~ if we follow this "formula" here...
Uzuki = Wicked
Wicked = No rest~
Therefore Uzuki= no rest~^_^
But the thing about Uzuki is that he's not being persued by authorities or something like that~ he's not at peace~ he's restless and jumpy~
He's got this load on his mind~ although not the kind like "where's my next meal~", "how do i pay the electricity bill~" and such, he still is bothered by it~ its like a beast closing on him, breathing down on his neck~ He's still debating what path he should take in life.. arts? or Science~
now, Uzuki has always been in love with animanga, and recently he's been watching anime and reading manga like around the clock like a patient on IV~ (due to the chronic boredness which hovers over his head~) And he's stumbled upon a magnificent anime entitled Byosouku 5cm~ (literally: 5cm per second) This anime, if you notice, also graces the top of this blog~ It chronicles the experiences of a close couple inevitably drifting apart over time... thus, the title "5 cm per second".. It actually refers to the speed at which cherry blossoms fall to the ground.. its a sad anology to people who were once close, drifting apart over time~ Its a very beautiful anime.. the visuals are simply stunning~ such a contrast to our kampung / pokok kelapa stuff~ well~ enough of promotion for this genius director Makoto Shinkai~
anyways~ about this anime, why i'm ranting about it is because its so beautiful and I can relate to it because of all the people who have seemingly forgotten about me over time.. And.. Most importantly, it makes me want to make something like that... which brings me back to the main problem poor Uzuki faces~ which path shall he take?
I have a partial scholarship to one of the leading Art/Multimedia colleges here, but I think i dont wanna stay around here. (imitating Agent Smith from The Matrix)
"this stench.. argh.. disgusting I... Need.. To.....Get.. Out..Of.. Here.. *_*"
I also have explored other options~ considered the possibilities~ Uzuki has also applied for Electronics/communication engineering in KL~ the heart of the city~ Well~ he got shortlisted and recently went down for an interview~ and all along the way he's been singing~
(cityscape pulls away to reveal a musical set and Uzuki sings along to 'No Place Like London' from the musical Sweeney Todd: the demon barber of fleet street.. Johnny Depp version)
Uzuki:(sung) I have surfed the web, and seen its wonders...
Went to singapore,but never had been to Peru~
But theres no place like KL~
I dont feel home again~
I have lived here for some time before,But i left here for a village in the north~
so theres no place like KL...i feel like a village Kid... XD
I am young...Life has been kind to me...But i will learn.
There's a whole in the world like a great black pit
and the people of this country inhabit it
I hear the hassle living here isn't worth what a pin can spit
and it goes by the name of KL.
At the top of the hole sit the privilaged few
Making mock of the vermin in the lonely zoo
turning beauty to filth and greed...
I too have surfed the web and seen its wonders,for the craziness of life is as wonderous as Peru
but there's no place like KL!
Ahem* (back to normal~)
anyways~ the weird thing about this was during the interview, the judges( what they calll em anyways) asked me why am I going for engineering when almost everything in my credentials were art related XD~
(this is.. i think is proof i merge engineering and art~)
so~ that kinda got me thinking.. am i not cut out for Science stuff? or did i just not show that side of me to the judges? the results are due abt a week from now, but really im not getting the urge to accept that.. i just read about some girl in my year getting a 7 year JPA scholarship to Japan to study engineering.. T_T lucky her... but i did some research, and apparently there is a University in Japan which has a faculty of manga... sounds perfect for me right? well.. not perfect. All classes are conducted in nihon-go~ Grr... *_* so if i chose that, i have to learn japanese here myself first.. im interested.. but aw...great.. (that means i need to take form 6 while taking japanese classes.. ) sigh~
anyways~ ^_^ watching Dirty Jobs with Mike Rowe on the Discovery channel~ (suggested alternate title: Jobs you want to avoid XD ) hopefully i get the drive to avoid those jobs.. heheh~
anyways.. im ending this post with a tribute to a new friend of mine~ ^_^
