Goddesses<3


I love them SO much since Sofia's film, The Virgin Suicides. Sofia's aesthetic sensibility is unquestionable. Every single moment in her movie is a picture, a beautiful scenery. And her picks for sound stracks is superb.

The Virgin Suicides tells a breathlessly picturesque story about the short-lived Lisbon girls and was perfectly flavored with music from Air. I'm totally obesessed with the entire movie. Kirsten's character, Lux ,which is probably her best performance ever. She portrayed the lost and debauched 14-year-old remarkably (well..maybe looking much more mature than a 14-year-old :P)

Lost in Translation. Sofia told another beautiful story about a lost woman lost in foreign country and met a man in his mid-age crisis. The fellow two became so close in few days in the unfamiliar city, Tokyo. Once again, the soundstack was perfectly picked( Kevin Shields, My Bloody Valentine...)It was a romantic journey.
 
Marie Antoinette. We saw how the legendary teenage girl rocked the Versailles. Cakes, clothes, parties...She just another lost girl. I like the idea that we see a historic character in a brand new view (even a teen view). The historical movie mat be controversial; But its influence to fashion world is undeniable.     17th Century + New Oder = Awsome!!
 
Sofia introduced me the particular beauty in Kirsten. She saw the unique beauty in Kirsten that’s why she would let her be the lead role in her films more than once. Hope to see more and more Sofia’s works since she may be busy raising baby. :P

Swordsman of Morality



I attended a freaking odd event today.


Everything started yesterday....

I was chosen to be the “品格大俠” (Swordsman of morality) (Don’t ask me, I did’t even know what the heck that was.) but how I love the title is true--- “Swordswomen” :P
So I’m actually pretty willing to be the “Swordswoman” without knowing soo much freaky thing is gonna happen in my following school life.

Yesterday, I got a book of the name “How to be a Swordsman of morality” from the Office of Student Affairs. Its cover is hilarious! It looks as if it’s from Chinese martial arts stories…I mean …I don’t understand how come those busy teachers have time to design the cover of ““How to be a Swordsman of Morals””. So with the book and curiosity of being a good swordswoman, I was attending the seminar of “Being a Swordsman of morality” which was CRAZY!

The seminar treated us, the 17 years old, like we are primary students. A game demanded us to come in groups and use sections of tubes to pass balls, wanting us to know the importance of cooperation = .=/// The game was ok. But after the game, they shared some stories with us about how to influence people around us to become moral. The stories should have come in ppts if the projector wasn’t broken. So it made people yawning and only few teachers were left. After the stories came the weirdest part of the day…we were asked again to the disused room beside where we had the silly game. They taught us to “奉茶” to the teachers (present a cup of tea respectfully to teacher which only happens in ancient Chinese culture!!) Things going eerier that they had some kind of scripture-reading song in background! Finally, we presented the tea to teachers “RESPECTFULLY” with laughter almost burst out of our mouths. Teachers were also having funny, embarrassing expression on their faces, and then they gave out a rose with 5 pearls to each student! 0.0 They said that… it is the “Truncheon of Morality” Orz


Five pearls symbolize five kinds of morals the school wants students to achieve.

....WHATEVER!! My high school is the coolest! lol
