1994

I felt bit jealous that some of the great things happened 3 years before I was born. Oh 1994, just a rundown of things I'd sure admire then while I'm in my Guess rompers.

The only time I admired the ever obnoxious Jim Carey (The Mask)

Bad Gurl (Leon: The Professional)

1994 really reminds me of Reality Bites, tbh. #semiotic

'til then, they revolutionized the coffee shop scene (F.R.I.E.N.D.S)

The birth of awesome gaming experience (Playstation opening)

Film: Fast Food Nation (2006)

First of all, Donald Trump won the US 2016 Elections.

Hahaha!

Going back, I've been fascinated with immigration films since I watched Jim Sheridan's In America (2003) it's a about an Irish immigrant family trying to survive the ghetto living in New York same as this film who got an Academy Award for Best Picture; Brooklyn starring the ever darling Saoirse Ronan (The Lovely Bones)

Since then, I craved for immigration-themed films and yesterday I found this quite unpopular film Fast Food Nation (2006) directed by Richard Linklater, director of Boyhood and Before Sunrise sequels. 

The film is about the dark side of America's dark side on its growing fast food industry. It showcases different perspectives of characters who works in the same company coming from the corporate person (played by Greg Kinear, Little Miss Sunshine), to the fast food servers, down to the factory workers. It also revolves around the misfortunate lives of Mexican 'borders' in Estados Unidos.


It reminded me of this 2004 Morgan Spurlock's documentary film Supersize Me, in which weeks after its release Mcdonald's corporation turned down their 'Supersize' meal to the public.

Films like these really awakens many people in the reality that's been polished for many years. It's such a courage act to published a film just like that, sadly it isn't popular just like nowadays entertainment movies.

Pixie Chic

I've been rocking my new Pixie haircut ever since the start of the semester. Everyone at school was shocked at my new hairdo since I've had long blondie-ish tresses back in summer. Some were impressed because they say I looked cute. (Yey!) others say "Were you on drugs" t(-__-)t
Last, last week I had it trimmed again and this time, it's waaaay more pixie than ever.

Do I look pretty? Haha! Sometimes I miss my long hair too. It's hard to manage this kind of haircut cause there were times you're oddly seen with a lipstick on. Anyhow, I liked it and I've been getting compliments that I look more girly and cute in this haircut.


PS. Thank you Demi Moore for believing me that girls still do look good even on boy cut.
