I am Jack

Haven't done a post in the blog in quite a while. Dunno if it was because I didn't feel like writing or just because I was too busy. Maybe it was both.

Either way, I've been watching some great movies and there were two just marked me for life: American Psycho and Fight Club. Geezus fucking Christ, those movies are so goddamn amazing! American Psycho: be like everybody else and you might get yourself and others confused about your identity. Fight Club: Don't follow the standard.

Some quotes I found awesome from both movies:
"There is an idea of a Patrick Bateman, some kind of abstraction, but there is no real me, only an entity, something illusory" - American Psycho

"Fuck off with your sofa units and strine green stripe patterns, I say never be complete, I say stop being perfect, I say let... lets evolve, let the chips fall where they may." - Fight Club

I think these movies even though they were not made in the 00's, they still apply to our society. We try to be something we are not, try to have things we cannot even afford just because it's fashionable or even because that guy has it. I admit it, I wanted to have a mac. And yes, I want to have a certain brand of markers or paper, in order to work better and to do what I love. Maybe it's because that artist use it and it has a beautiful effect. But hey, I'm part of this society, whether I like it or not. If I stop using those markers, what will happen to me? Absolutely nothing. But at least I don't fool myself by saying I'm something else.

Either way, I advise everybody to watch these two movies.

On another note, I've been a little busy with college, hanging out with boyfriend every now and then <3 Fffff, it's seems like I've been with him more than 3 months xD

And and and and, I love you all <3
Bye bye c:


CUPCAKES BTW

  1. Olha viste o American Psycho! Bastante interessante o filme! Já não se fazem muitos desse género por acaso. (e btw, continuo a achar a cena do "Hey Paul!" das mais épicas de sempre)

    Essa quote do filme lembra-me outra de uma música de Epica que eu simplesmente adoro e remete para o mesmo tema: "too much thinking goes at the cost of all our intuition, so we're already slaves of our artificial world"


    O Fight Club nunca o vi por acaso, mas por coincidência estive justamente hoje a copiar esse e o Into the Wild para o meu portátil para ver esta noite no autocarro. Visto que por estes lados é normal passar 6 horas em viagem num autocarro e eles têm electricidade, decidi sacar uma data de filmes conhecidos por serem awesome e que eu ainda não vi para ir vendo nas viagens de autocarro :P
    Pra já vão esses 2 e depois tenho a saga Godfather, Shutter Island, Pianista, Pulp Fiction e Inception na "waiting list" :P


    (Btw o comentário vai com a conta do Logaritmo porque isto pede-me login do google e a única conta gmail que tenho é dele :P)
