Crazy/Beautiful


IMDb: When fate steps in and brings together two high school seniors from opposite sides of the track, it's something crazy/beautiful in this sexy, fun and energetic story of first love. Nicole (Kirsten Dunst) is the 17-year-old troubled daughter of a wealthy congressman who never met a rule she didn't break. Carlos (Jay Hernandez) is a grade A student with big dreams who endures a two-hour bus ride every morning to attend high school in an upscale L.A. neighbourhood. Their innocent flirtations quickly develop into passionate love, but Nicole's self-destructive behaviour threatens their relationship and puts Carlos' promising future in jeopardy. Will their intense passion keep them together despite the objections of their families or will Carlos be forced to plan his future without Nicole? Surprises lie at every turn in this wildly seductive and critically acclaimed drama.

I was channel browsing earlier while waiting for my BF who promised to drop by before going to eTel for his contract signing [yey!!! he's now officially a call boy/tech support agent, a profession he detested but got into because of my persuasion] when I suddenly felt the urge to watch this movie despite my dislike of Kirsten Dunst. I haven't heard of this movie before and it's only now that I learned it got so many good reviews. I thought it would just be another chick flick but soon I realized there was more to it than the usual boy-meets-girl story. There were heartbreaking lines [especially when Nicole talks to her dad] that made me cry so hard.

Nicole: "Why do you hate me so much? How could you tell the only person in the world that I love, that I care about so much, how could you tell him to stay away from me? Do you think that the only thing I'll ever do to someone is screw them up? That I'm not worth loving? "

Nicole: "Sometimes you look at me like you wish I wasn't there... like I'd just disappear. And it hurts so much..."

Nicole: "I know I'm not the easiest person to love... but could you try anyway?"

Nicole: "There are millions of people out there. But in the end it all comes down to one. I still panic sometimes, forget to breathe. But I know there's something beautiful in all my imperfections. A beauty in which he held out for me to see, a strength that can never be taken away."

Nicole: "I want to be good for you."
Carlos
[HOT!!!]: "You are good for me."
Nicole: "Not if I keep taking you away from everything you've worked so hard for. I want to make things better for once, not worst. Cause I really want to be with you, I can't keep running away from things."
Carlos: "I'm here for you.
Nicole: "I know you are."

It's not gonna feel the same reading it as to actually seeing the movie and understanding the whole story. I feel like crying reading these lines all over again. This is now officially under my all-time fave movies!

My nth Blog

I've had a about four blog accounts and none of them had been good enough for me to take seriously and update regularly. I can't even remember some of them. I can't think of any specific topic I'd dedicate this blog to. I guess that's the reason why I chose CluelessClyde for my username. That's not my name either. It sounds like it when you say the 1st syllable and I had one friend call me that for awhile, however, it just didn't feel right. I even tried using Clyde for my phone name but one of my customer said, "if you'll choose a name, might as well opt for a female name". Right, like I don't know Clyde Drexler. Anyway, that didn't work for me as well so I decided to name my dolphin stuffed toy Clyde. My tazmanian devil stuffed toy is simply Taz. I call my toy pug Bastie the bastard and my little police pig, Ron the moron. A former officemate had a cow stuffed toy and we called "him" Assie the asshole. Not only that, we had a secret/invisible friend, "Lindows" and we used to put an extra chair between us. That would cause many raised eyebrows especially when we start talking to "him". Wierd isn't it? Hey, call me Clyde.

In case you haven't noticed yet, once I start talking.. I just can't stop and would randomly pick something to talk about. I find it hard to focus on one topic alone. A college classmate once told me she finds it hard to get my point and she has to ask me "and the bottomline is?". That's me and I don't care if you don't want to waste your time reading my blog, I have a LOT of friends. LOL. Well anyway, by now I'd like to think you know why I chose CluelessClyde for my username and Anything and Everything... for my blog title. I'm thinking maybe I'll do like most of the bloggers do, talk about current issues or comment on books they've recently read or movies they've seen or whatever. I don't really have much time to read these days because I'm still adjusting to my new work. I haven't even had the chance to read the Harry Potter book 7 [ugh! i wanna die!]. Movies? Maybe I'll choose one in a week 'coz I watch movies all the time and I don't think I'll have the time [or patience] to discuss 'em one-by-one. Or maybe, just anything. We'll see.. This is all for now, just wanna, you know, get myself in the mood. Hopefully I'd still remember tomorrow that I created one today. Hehehe.Ü
