I went to go see "New Moon" last night, finally. I love going to the movies alone, I don't have to speak to anyone, and no one feels the need to speak to me, it's like a release or something...but I digress. I'm watching the movie and pretty much everything is same as the book (a few things out of book here and there, but no biggy)...and there came the scene when Bella and Jacob are fixing bikes in Jacobs garage and the radio is on. It's a lyrical soft tune that's playing, and Bella turns off the radio and Jacob says "that was a good song" and then Bella replies "yeah, I'm not really into music right now". At that moment, I totally connected-not with Bella, but with the fact that the similarities in heartbreak do not differ that much. Even though I've posted music here on this page, it doesn't mean my i-pod has a hole burnt in it. I can never really bring myself to listen to music; it's kind of like forcing happiness or a good mood on you when you're not ready. Then there is the awful ache of happening to hear a song that you both listened to when you were happy, or a song that neither of you listened to, but it, in some way, reminds you desperately of the one you love. That was the most real thing in the whole movie and a connection to others strange and mind boggling idiosyncrasies.
