)^NOBODY'S EVER READY FOR PARANOID PARK+=

I just watched it again for the second time. Wednesday I earned 20 euros with providing information to students about studying abroad and as a reward I bought myself the Paranoid Park DVD (!) which also features Mala Noche, which I still have to watch though. Seeing Paranoid for the second time I loved it even more, which I can't say 'bout all films. Every shot is just so refreshing and I love its pace. Van Sant just sucks you in into this mind of this kid and this guilt he caries round. It's both heavy and light at the same time. I could swim in it forever.

&§BALLAST|~

Just before I go to bed, this trailer you really NEED to see! I saw it yesterday or the day before or maybe even the day before that one, don't remember, but now I'm posting it here right now. It's the trailer from this film called Ballast. Its director, Lance Hammer won the prize for best direction at the 2008 Sundance Film Festival and the film also won for best cinematography. Just a glimpse of the trailer and you immediately see why it won, it really needs no explanation. Just Look. I myself had to stop watching it, because I was so overwhelmed with excitement that I just don't want to see or hear anything about this film from now on until I've seen it at the cinema. So they better make sure they play it somewhere. I knew nothing about this film, but it sky rocketed to the top of my must-see list. I can't wait. I hope the story is as good as those first couple of beautiful images that can be seen at the beginning of the trailer. Be fascinated:



And a picture from Boy A, this film I'm longing to see for quite a long while now. Found out some days ago that they will show it at the Filmschuur, the best cinema here in my town. So that's really cool news. But the only reason I want to see this movie is because of this picture below. I don't know what it is, but looking at this picture just want me to see the movie. And...well I just really like the film's title. Enough reason for me to go all kinds of crazy. And a movie that's playing right now and which I NEED to see is Lake Tahoe, can't wait.



Someone took a picture of the poster of Lake Tahoe:

"{PRAGUE*^

So I finally continue. Prague was huge. It has everything big wide streets with lots and lots of shops at Wenceslas Square. I had breakfast in this big shopping mall. I ate a wrap, which was nice. After I went to explore the city, walking all the way up to the Royal Gardens. No trams or metros, just doing everything by foot, which is what I like. Having walked up the stairs I enjoyed the beautiful view looking down at the city from above. The weather was really good, far better than in Copenhagen. At the Old Town Square I went into one of the churches and almost at the end of the afternoon I discovered a gallery where there was a Salvador Dalí and Alfons Mucha exhibition. So after thinking to have a day without visiting a museum I did find one afterall. The train to Budapest was leaving at 21.47 so I still had a lot of time. So I started walking, discovering parts that were a bit outside the city center. I went into a supermarket and bought two oranges and later on passed a Tesco! :) At the train station I had a chat with this guy from India who had been travelling round and later I went to look for my train as there was some confusion. There was no mention of a train to Budapest, though there was one to Bucharest which had the number of the train I had to take. So I asked the guy at the information desk and he said he didn't know where the train to Budapest was and told me I had to wait as it might pop up on the screen in some minutes. I noticed other people were confused as well. Eventually I decided to check that train going to Bucharest and I asked some guy of the train whether this was my train as well. He told me no, though I was sure it was, 'cause the number of this train was the same as the one I had to take. So I walked back, my backpack on my back and waited a while to see if a train would pop up with destination Budapest. Eventually I asked a different guy at a different tickt information desk and he told me I indeed had to go on the train with destination Bucharest. So I was right, it was my train and so I went off to Budapest.

It looks cloudy in some of the pictures, but really the weather was great that day!









These shoes are hanging up there, because...?














I guess it did became a bit cloudy at the end of the day afterall. But it didn't get real colder.
