My Thoughts About: Higanbana (Japanese movie)

Higanbana centers about the 7th division of Tokyo Metropolitan Police and their duty to solve crime cases that are related to female suspects/victims. I only got interested in watching this since I'm a big fan of Kara's ex-member Kang Jiyoung. I'll give the movie a rating of 6/10 because the story wasn't that really special. The story was quite confusing at the beginning - I thought the plot was about a person who sends threatening postcards to brides but then someone gets killed and it's not even connected to the marriage thing that everyone is fussing about. I think should be made into a drama series instead. The most annoying thing for me was the choice of music for this movie. When I heard the song "Just give me a reason" while a tearjerker moment was on, I literally rolled my eyes in disbelief. Uggh. Seriously, that song?

Anyway, I'll give props to the actresses since the acting was good especially the main female cast. I just hope they'd give more screen time to the other members of the 7th division as it seemed like they were just supporting characters.

My Goals for 2015

Fresh year, fresh start. Change, it's the only constant thing in this world but applying it to yourself can be challenging. Here are the things that I want to change and work on this 2015.

Enjoy life and go with the flow

I am such a worrywart that I tend to think about every negative thing that could happen in my life.

Become open to opportunities knocking

I'll be prepared to accept challenges and give my all.

Be more productive

Do other useful chores instead of wasting time playing/idling all day.

Lower my pride and be more understanding

This. This might be one of the hardest thing to change in my personality. I'm short-tempered and whenever I make mistakes, I'm always hesitant to accept them.

Be with people who really matter

Quality will always be better than quantity so I'll keep my priorities straight and spend more time with only a few people who really care and matter in my life.

Start working on career

Sadly, I'm still jobless for almost seven months now and thinking about it really makes me depressed. I need to shape up and find a great opportunity now.

Begin saving/investing for the future

I don't have a single penny in my bank account right now and it makes me feel unsure about my future. One I get a work, I'll really start saving and searching for a good long-term investment.

Discard emotional and concrete clutter

I need to let go of these useless thoughts in my mind and sort out my growing stuff as well.

Blog more

I want to be more active and write about the things that I experience and interest me.
