hors de prix
one of the reason I started this other blog, as a diversion from my original blogspot, is to avoid myself from talking/writing about love. in particular, my love. its tiring, emotionally draining as it gets nowhere. not to say that its non-existence of course. one will talk passionately about love when one is in love. and I have talked passionately about love as I was am still in love.
yesterday, I went out with a girlfriend to celebrate her belated birthday that I've missed because I was in Langkawi that very day. She had a nice dinner then despite everyone was unavailable for celebration. so, I took her for japanese food, and she bought me 2 movies, 2 great movies in fact. Shrek 3 and Hors de Prix (Priceless). I have to say, even on a week night, where one has to get up at 5.30am and go to the office the very next day, it was all worth it. worth the tiring drive at 2am. I even laid on bed, viewing the one-hour video we shot of our dinner. (for friends of mine whom I have (will) promised birthday celebration, things will come 20 days late. heh. yeah, thats how belated her birthday was.
driving her home from midvalley to subang, then heading home to selayang at 2am. Priceless.
sleeping at 3.30am and waking up at 5.30am for work. Priceless.
driving to work and receiving a phonecall from someone .... Priceless.
There are things money can't buy. And for everything else, there's my sincere heart. (owh, it rhymes as much as Mastercard does! splendid!)
No, I will not bore you (again) with my love story, which is complicated enough for me, and for a normal human being to comprehend (hey, wait seminit. I'm MUTANT!)
I'd like to recommend the french movie "Hors de Prix" (Priceless) to everyone. Its a simple story about a classic gold digger and a bell-boy turned gigolo who fell in love with each other (SPOILER ALERT!!) . What made my heart sink is the sacrifices and silly things you do when you're in love and how bad the consequences of your action, you fail to see past it because you're so blinded by the effort of being loved and just, being there. At times, money has become secondary and things one should just swallow hard and accept but dare not make an issue. The point of being in love, is BEING THERE, REGARDLESS.
There's a huge difference when someone you're with told you "Owh yeah baby, that feels good" and someone else who said, "I like this morning light on you face." In between the lines, love lies somewhere. And no, its not when "baby" makes you "feel good". Hey, don't judge me if I do talk from experience.
but yeah, there are things when all the money has been spent, that final 10 second you pay to look into the eyes of the person you love. Yes, for that moment with the person. Without touches. Without words.
I'd pay. For that final 10 seconds. (if only I can get that morning light to shine on my face).
