Just came down with a terrible bout of food poisoning from my trip to Korea... Major system overhaul I should say...
dunno if that was what weakened me, but it was once of the worst and miserable times I felt...not mentioning the Korean dramas that the guide showed us and the one I watched tonight that triggered a whole series of excessive emos.

I’m glad I din watch this on the flight back or I would have made a terrible fool of myself in front of the kids. It literally caused me to sob out loud cus these koreans are just so apt at tugging at your heart strings and romancing everything to be so flawless yet all so heavenly tragically beautiful.

The surge of emotions have yet to fully settle right now and I still have the urge for a strong shoulder to let out my pent up emos but then again, I know I only have my faithful bolster to rely upon.

Understanding the history, background, landscape and having been to the mountains of Korea, perhaps helps me better appreciate the movies alot more. Just what else makes me so emotional, I wonder. The fact that I just could not stop myself from putting myself into the position of the characters in the movie.

What if I had no more memories of the one I love??? didn’t I always hope for a day where I could forget the unhappiness we had??
Then I would have to give up all the other happy memories we had? And if my loved one were to forget all about me....wouldn’t that eat me up totally....

Say I’m dumb or wadever, the tears just wouldn’t stop rolling off my cheeks!!!

Romance aside, BROTHERS was another movie that got to all of us....we couldn’t stop tearing on the bus in Korea. The historical background between North and South Korea at war with each other and the many identified soldiers who sacrificed themselves in the war wasn’t so real until we saw the movie and understood how little the soldiers themselves knew about the purpose behind the war. The war which they laid down their lives for. The only that came through to these people was SURVIVAL. that was all that was on their minds.
In the fight for survival, sacrifice for brotherhood was a major tear-jerker to all of us.
I asked my pupils, would you do that for your siblings??

The only answer i got was the endless list of all the disturbances and grievances they had suffered at the hands of their siblings...signz.
We’re after all so so bloody realistic. Even the kids have learnt a thing or two from us.

Whooew. Guess its good that we tear a little once in a while and least remind ourselves that we’re still human and emos are still intact. Doesn’t matter if we let go just for that two hours or so and get ourselves out of control in a pool of tears as long we get a hold on ourselves once the emos have died down and life still has to e dealt with in its most practical and often most ruthless ways. ....
