There has been so much darkness as of late. I have been having money troubles, school troubles, and my mother does not wish to bother with me anymore. Yet in this darkness I have found light, hope, and love. Mostly it is from my dearest Brian...but also another unexpected source...
Hindi Films!
As of late I have been really into watching Foreign Films, especially Drama/Romance ones. Originally I was watching tons and tons of Korean ones, but most of them always seem to end on a sad note, so I stopped watching them for awhile so that I do not throw myself farther into darkness. Luckily I have found more uplifting and beautiful stories from Bollywood. One in particular has caught my fancy.
Rab Na Bana di Jodi
(A Match Made In Heaven)
In the movie Surinder Sahni, a 40 year old mild-mannered and nerdy office worker, falls for the young and free spirited Taani. She causes him to transform into the loud and fun-loving "Raj" in order to win her heart.
The whole story is simply beautiful and Shahrukh Khan plays both Surinder and Raj beautiful. The movie makes me cry every time I watch it and the music/singing is stupendous! The only downside is that these Bollywood films are almost 3 hours long! I highly recommend this movie however! YOU MUST WATCH IT!
***********************************************
Since watching these foreign films I realized I have such a huge love for Language. I plan on learning Spanish (for my bf's family), Japanese, and now the Hindi language. The Hindi language sounds so beautiful when sung and it makes my heart warm whenever I hear it.
I thought about getting into Linguistics to better understand how these languages work, but I imagine the only thing I could do with that degree is to teach. There is no way I could do that! I do not have it in my. I am too shy. Cannot speak well in front of large crowds. Nor do I have the patience for ill-behaved students. Haha...so I will just stick to learning these languages as best as I can, though I really only wish to be able to sing in these languages. It does help to know what it is you are saying/singing though :P

Yaara mein kya karu"
Yaara mein kya karu"

I don't know what to do"
