Amélie

Amelie, An amazing female character from the french movie Amélie Poulain.(2001.)
I'm just amused by her characteristics in the movie, how amazingly mysterious she was, and how she took pleasure out of the littlest things in life. A magnificent movie; built on a beautiful plot, with a simple yet magical scenes exquisitely wrapped underneath it.It's gonna warm your heart, leave you with an amazing feeling of wanting to better the world. A must watch movie, definitely worth of 5 stars rating.

The movies starts with telling a story, a story of her father and her mother, how they seem so connected in their own specialties, what they like, what they dislike, meaning simple description of a person in a cute way.
Then Amelie comes with her sweet introduction.

" She's in the middle,yet she's outside"  

 Amélie likes "dipping her hand into sacks of grains, cracking crème brulèe with a teaspoon, and skipping stones at St. Martin's Cannel" (Jeunet,2001) It is also noted that she enjoys noticing little details no one else notices and looking back at the faces of people in the theater. Amélie hates "in old movies how drivers don't watch the road" (Jeunet, 2001).






She's different. She likes to create mystery.She catches every little things that even no one usually notices.
She feels good doing good.She gave happiness to  proximately, fifty years old guy, by returning his childhood treasure that he used to keep in her apartment centuries ago.She found it and right then she decided to give it back to its owner right away,and she made it possible.She gave it to the owner without meeting with him and in a mysterious way. I guess that's the sign of a good deed,you hide your credit.you watch how people react, how happy they get because of you.
 Bretodeau, The Box Man: Life's funny. To a kid, time always drags. Suddenly you're fifty. All that's left of your childhood... fits in a rusty little box.
 "Amelie has a strange feeling of absolute harmony. It's a perfect moment. A soft light, a scent in the air, the quiet murmur of the city. A surge of love, an urge to help mankind overcomes her."



 She fixes everything around her.She's gorgeous. She takes revenge too. She has everything going on underneath her smile.

[Amélie has found Nino's photo album and his "lost" posters] Any normal girl would call the number, meet him, return the album and see if her dream is viable. It's called a reality check. The last thing Amélie wants"

 She had a weak heart.But in the end, she dared to be with the guy she loves. and that's a loooong story.
 
 
Hipolito, The Writer: Without you, today's emotions would be the scurf of yesterday's.

spring is almost here

Hi B,  Season is changing. The hard days are almost over.  The city I live in has turned so beautiful, I get overwhelmed by the beauty.  Tulips are in. Cherry blossoms are blossoming.  Magnolia, Beautiful white flowers, name unknown to me.  Taking a walk out feels like a celebration of life.  It feels like I'm falling in love with the city.  I remember when I first moved here 2 years ago, the excitement and the crippling anxiety of starting a new life from scratch. Now, after 2 years, I feel a warmth and love for the place.  I don't know if I would feel the same when the winter comes though. Seasonal depression is no joke.  My new mantra for life now is to chill.  Praise the nature and find pretty little corners in the city.  Write poems.  Paint, maybe.  Seek positivity.  Love. Be kind to self. No rush. Read books. Just flow.

long distance again

 I came back from my trip. It was amazing 2 weeks of my life. Seeing him again after so long felt strange yet peaceful. I finally got to be in his arms again. 2 weeks flew by and now I am back home and back to work and normal hustle and bustle of life.  He got an extension offer and decided to stay for another 3 months. It is sad because he was supposed to be back next month. He asked me if he should take it and despite having my heart aching I supported him in the decision. It is not confirmed yet but he probably be staying another 3. Another 5 months of long distance. How am I going to survive the winter by myself? I don't know. Honestly, in my heart, I don't care about how much compensation he be getting. I miss him so much and this long distance thing is killing me inside. Today is Friday night and instead of cuddles and movie, I am home alone. No plans to look forward. No one to talk to. I am the loneliest girl on earth right now. He is probably sleeping and not picking u...

winter together

 Dear B,  Sorry I've been so MIA. Here's the update you missed - My husband came back! He wasn't approved for those 3 months of extension. I've been getting enough cuddles and kisses to survive this winter.  Yes, winter is here. Never underestimate the Canadian winter. It's the worst. Everything is grey and dark. However, I am looking forward to going home in March. I'm so excited to see my friends again. Most importantly my parents and brother. It feels a strange kind of feeling. I am planning to 'visit' the place I was born and call home. It is definitely a new kind of feeling.  Things been okay. We are okay. I am glad to have him back.  We bought a new couch and a coffee table. It's still in back order and I'm impatiently waiting for them to arrive.  Can't believe only 4 days left to 2026. Time is flying so quick. Hope we talk again, B. I swear I missed you!
