sometimes i feel as lonely as bob and charlotte in lost in translation. i easily drown in the doldrums of my inefficiency as a ... well, human. :| i mean i'm not sure what to do with my life most of the time, and i'm not actually sure with anything i do, or even ever done. i just go along with life and make do with what it gives me i guess. i think i'm supposed to be at that point where i have an idea about what i want to do when i enter real life alone, but my problem is that i dont. is this quarter-life crisis? :| i do have these images in my head where i am traveling a lot (see previous blog entry) and watching a lot of movies but then i probably wouldnt know how to reach that when i generally have difficulty in trusting my abilities and decisions. yay for low self-esteem. :)) but you know, maybe i'll figure it out. luckily my being a bum comes with some kind of optimism that everything will probably turn out alright. if it doesn't i'll just adjust to the circumstances until it really is. good plan, eh? haha.
by the way. i loved sofia coppola's lost in translation. it was such a beautiful kind of sad. and set in one of my favorite countries ever: japan. it was profound and moving, though it gripped me with a sudden desperation to find a friend like bob. :))
Charlotte: I just don't know what I'm supposed to be. Bob: You'll figure that out. The more you know who you are, and what you want, the less you let things upset you.
