1. Some new inspiration
Last month I got probably the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to get so close to Thanh Loc, an excellent actor/artist of Vietnam, when he came to my studio to make a short documentary video supporting his new-released autobiography.
I sat there just 2 meter in front of him. He re-performed about 7 best acts through out his career. He caused us to applaud. He'd have taken some tears of mine easily If I were a woman. He talked about the act and in just half an exhale he suddenly turned into the character. He talked, got dramatic, cried, lied on the floor, then laughed, then coughed,... transforming my small studio into different spaces and times.
For a few moments after he had left, I imagined practicing acting alone letting all myself as dramatic as possible.
Last week, I and mom got an invitation to 5B Theater to watch "Đêm Vượn Hú - Night of The Gibbons' Cry". Though covered with an ambient of ghostly horror, the play was about people and their greed, their losing of humanity over properties. I still trembled for half an hour after the play was over, thinking about the true scare of it. This play has got me more interested in drama and I'd probably spend some money and time on this genre of art with my mom, a bigger fan of drama.
A few days ago I met a young writer. We went to the same highschool and have some common friends and he gave me a copy of one of his books. It was written in the cover "the best-selling book of 2014". I'm not afraid to say that his literature is not my genre but I still read a few chapters to soothe my mind out of all on-computer tasks I am having at the moment. The thing is, his book inspired me to write again.
I think I have good imagination and extra-confidence because whenever I enjoy paintings, literature, photography, ... I always hear myself whispering "hey I can probably do it, too".
2. I was going to write something for number 2 half an hour ago but now I forgot.
3. I miss you. Really really miss you and I know texting too much is not wise in times like this. Anyway, I'd rather be unwise than regret later not expressing my feeling.
4. I'd should arrange time to get back to my writing project ASAP. I constructed a draft layout one year ago and left it unfinished. Bad me!
