Love, Actually. [again]

i rented the vcd yesterday because my mudder's been wanting to watch it for eons but hasn't been able to catch it. she adores Hugh Grant. [and co-incidentally, doesn't like Colin Firth because he was the Good Guy and made Hugh look like a complete arse in Bridget Jones].

so ANYWAYS, watching it for the second time round really brought me back to memories of Our Day At Bugis With the Big Fountain.

*sighs*

like you know at the point when Kiera Knightley finds out her husband's best friend is in love with her and he walks out of his house and Dido starts playing? i could actually hear andrea singing along like she did that day.
and when Karl and that girl was about to get it on, it flashed to me how bern popped her head over to where i was sitting and said "pass me a bucket to drool in!" and how haz and vince were all looking ratherdejected at how we were swooning.
and of course the cooing out of certain people when Alan Rickman and Colin Firth came on screen.

*sighs* happier days.

times like these, i'm really glad for my photographic memory. i really..[i dont think there's a replacement for this sappy and puke-inducing word] treasure the snippets of happy days and good times that i've managed to capture.

like the time we were at the Youth Park playing Dare-Dare and that guy mooned us. i was recounting the experience to my friends and i realized i didn't remember how he left us because we were laughing too hard.
*sniffles*

back to the topic:

i managed to catch nuances of the movie that i missed the first time round because i was just having too much fun laughing and just being happy.
i noticed the contrast of atmospheres when scenes changed and all things that are taken note off in literature.
i noticed the beautiful, dignified, quiet pain and brilliant acting when emma thompson found out she was being cheated on by SNAPE no less!
i noticed the gorgeous Kiera Knightley sounding so silly and so clueless when she said "i look quite prettay." when she was watching the video of her wedding.
and i appreciated the silent agony of the best friend guy even more.

and who can forget Karl? he is after all, the Ultimate Sex God. i of course, notice the subtler nuances of his sex god-liness; his glasses. yes, his spectacles.

he looked good in the office and all what with him lugging the poster-tube thing around..but i forgot nearly all of it after watching him without his clothes on.[hello? who wouldn't? lol] this time around, i noticed how he kept on pushing up his wire-rim glasses and i didn't realize it then but geez, it really added to his sexiness. it adds this tinge of vulnerablity that reduces me to a puddle of izyanti.

i'm shamelessly lusting after you Karl! not the actor but you Karl, i want to make you miney-miney-MINE.

it was so hot.

honestly, his glasses-pushing habit was even sexier than him nearly naked. hrm, maybe it's just me.

maybe i just have a thing for cute guys with a slightly geeky edge. sure, i may go 'woah' at the swaggering, cocky guys but it's the geeks my heart belongs to!! =D

like there was at this one time last year i had this heee-uge crush on this guy and he one day changed his glasses and i was one of the only ones who noticed. i suppose it wasnt /that/ significant a change [from navy wire-rims to black ones] but I noticed! lol, i kept staring at them that day.
--how embarrassing--
