First things first. I got my second semester results. The only thing I'm happy about is the fact that I got an A for Professional Writing, which was what I expected myself to get. But all in all I am very disappointed with myself. I know I could do better than 3.12 GPA (went down from my previous GPA of 3.43) and I swear, I'm gonna try to up my points come third semester.
Last night I saw Inception with my parents and my 3 cousins and I'm gonna tell you right now. For those who haven't seen it, well YOU HAVE TO WATCH IT! It's really really good. The actors are brilliant (I loved Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Ellen Page and Tom Hardy (Eames' sarcasms are win) in it). After the movie, my cousins and my mum had a huge argument, whether or not Cobb was still dreaming or if he's back to reality. As I commented at Jess's entry, I argued that Cobb was still dreaming because A) his kids didn't appear to have aged considering the fact that he hasn't seen them since Mal died (though as I'm writing this I realised they didn't tell us when Mal died), B) the kids are exactly where he dreamed/last seen them in, wearing the same clothes, C) we didn't see the top fell, it only wobbled a bit (I think I cursed when the screen suddenly went blank just before the top started to wobble harder. BUT, after reading this article (thanks Jess!), it all made sense now. It's something I overlooked but his wedding ring was his real totem! I mean A) Arthur told Ariadne that she has to have her own unique totem and that no one else can touch it. And because the top was actually Mal's totem, no way that could be Cobb's totem. B) After reading the article I realise that I did notice Cobb was wearing his ring in the first scene (when he was brought to Saito in the first place)(DREAM SCENE) and he didn't wear his ring in the plane when he sat behind Fischer Jr. (REALITY). And the fact that he didn't wear his ring when he came back home to see his children makes it clear that it was all reality! Plus, I think the reason why Nolan didn't show if the top fell off or not is because he's saying that now that Cobb is free of his guilt and now that he's home back with his kids, nothing else matters. He's happy that he gets to go home so that's all that matters. It's just that I wouldn't have thought his ring was his real totem because it's something so easily overlooked.
Enough of Inception talks. Today I went shopping with mum and I managed to scratch the car x_x Just a small scratch but a scratch is still a scratch. Mum was pissed, of course. When I told dad, he looked calm and he didn't yell at me "You scratched the car?! You're not driving it again!" as I expected him to do. He was, like, "Oh, okay." And I stood there, like, o.O Anyways, I should be thankful he didn't blow up on me, haha. I bought a few stuffs in preparation to go back to college this coming weekend.
I shall end the blog now. Awkward ending, I know.
