the diving bell and the butterfly

i loved the poster. but it took me a long time to actually watch it. perhaps because I wasnt in the mood for depressing movies. I don't need another movie to bring my whole spirit to the floor.


i don't quite know whether i love it, but I know I liked it. It's about this guy who had a locked-in syndrome, where he communicates using his one eye. he had a stroke, so the only thing that was still functional was his right eye i think. so basically the movie revolves around how he communicates and managed to write a book using the blink of his eye. one blink is for a yes, and two is for a no. i was supposed to read this for my assignment, but i thought I didnt have the time. i found out that we were supposed to give our reviews by next week, so I guess I'll spend my weekend on the finishing this assignment. the ending was sad, and I never like depressing movies. but go watch it if you have the time and money.

i love my ssc. basically because it involves watching movies and giving you're opinion about it. perhaps because the scope is wide, and you can crap alot for your 2000 words. I was never one who would go for the evidence-based research. Maybe because I don't think I am that smart, or maybe I couldnt bother confusing my mind more on statistical figures. so reason I chose medicine and humanities, you tell me. i guess it is pretty obvious.
