FATAL ATTRACTION

 


Today I watched the notorious Fatal Attraction (1987) starring Glenn Close and Michael Douglas. The movie is that same kind of erotic thriller which was quite popular back to the day. In these movies, sex is always the main drive of crime and obviously we have seen so many men and women on screen recreated all the scariest incidents happened by the loss of control of some psychopaths. 

I was one of them.

If you want to know about my past love story, I'm happy to tell and admit that I was a psychopath. I was really mad and out of control. I tortured my ex lover every night and I didn't care about the consequences I would face in the near future. I haunted her like a ghost crying everyday asking for a reconciliation. So pathetic I was.

Watching Fatal Attraction, I felt like I was seeing a bad joke on myself which is so sardonic. I can't believe I did behave the same way as Alex did. I was like out of my mind and made a fool of myself. I totally understand the borderline personality disorder that Alex has. 

But it's funny though to see the reflection of myself on the screen. Glenn Close is a terrific actress, she did it so well, the way she got into the character was so down to earth and I love her performance to the fullest.

Thanks to Glenn Close or Alex, I have finally gathered myself together and chosen a different path from her. At the end of the day, there's another thing I consider the most important to myself compared to that little affair I had with somebody. 

However I don't like the ending. I'm not sure what the movie is about since it lacks something profound. The psychological process of Michael Douglas's character is superficially developed while he is supposed to be the hero of the movie but he acts and thinks like a bastard. 

There is one problem hovering around my mind related to the death of Alex. Everything would have been so much better for her if somebody had taken her case seriously instead of calling her a crazy bitch.  

She needs a mental treatment, not a man constantly inflicted harm upon her or a gunshot right into the chest. 

Do crazy people deserve to die?

5/7/2023 - Mimi’s diary - The balance

 The balance between multiple factors. There are many things I want to do, but I need a good time management. The first is language, the second is tailoring, the third is science, and the fourth is film. I have to determine which one can earn me money, prioritize it, and spend the most time on it. Currently, I am still in the process of seeking medical attention and finding direction, so I will temporarily put it aside. Next week, I have to be more disciplined. I will continue to spend 8 hours working in the tailoring shop. Then, I will walk for 1-2 hours. At 8 pm, I will practice IELTS and Chinese. At 9:30 pm, I will read about science. At 10 pm, I will read about film before going to bed at 10:30 pm. On weekends, I will spend more time on reading about science and film. I will also do housework and cleaning. As for the IELTS study schedule, four days a week are dedicated to practicing each of the four skills for one hour, with the remaining 30 minutes devoted to learning Chinese....

29/7/2023 - Mình thật ngây thơ

 Mình thật ngây thơ  Mình lo nghĩ gì chứ? Trong khi mình đã ở đây hơn nửa năm rồi?  Mình lo sợ người ta vu oan cho mình? Có camera mà. Mình lo sợ có biến cố gì đó xảy ra và mình phải gánh? Mình đâu phải sếp H, tự làm tự chịu trách nhiệm chứ có gì đâu mà phải sợ.  Mình lo sợ người khác nói mình thế này thế kia, nói xấu sau lưng mình? Chi vậy? Đó là điều bình thường của cuộc sống mà. Họ luôn vậy, nhưng họ vẫn yêu quý mình bằng cách nào đó.  Mình đã vượt qua được đến hôm nay rồi, còn gì mà mình phải lo sợ nữa hả Des?  Còn kế hoạch của mình? Mình có nên giúp ông X không? Anh T nói là cái nào ra cái đó. Đó giờ mình vẫn trộn lẫn rồi cũng có đâu vào đâu đâu, nên mình nghĩ là mình nên thay đổi cách tiếp cận mọi thứ.  Mình đi làm địa chất để làm gì? Để kiếm tiền, để giới thiệu cho mọi người biết về những công việc của ngành địa chất.  Ngành địa chất có cần công nghệ không? Có. Nhưng mình có cần tạo ra phần mềm không? Không.  Tại sao mình không nghiên ...

MY WORK HISTORY

  MY WORK HISTORY  According to the to-do list that I made some days before, the second entry below that of taking the IELTS test is job hunting , that's the reason why I write about this topic today.  In this post, I'm going to write about my childhood dreams, jobs that I used to experience in the past and my career aspiration for a better future.  My childhood dreams I'm nothing special. At least that is what I have realized at the age of 26, but winding the timeline back nearly 20 years, I really knew nothing, I didn't see the truths about us, humans, about how tiny we are compared to the universe. I thought I was special and unique and I would become someone important some days, someone really really great. I had dreamed of becoming a prime minister, a writer, a journalist or an English teacher. I did make it in some fields and still, what I haven't achieved gradually diminished along with the devastation that the adult world has caused to me.  My choices An...
