I have been on medical leave for almost two weeks. I'm usually an active person and also a workaholic. It's been strange trying to relax. Relaxing includes a lot of Netflix. At first I caught up on all of How To Get Away With Murder and then finished the series Narcos (Which is amazing). I somehow fell into watching romantic comedies. I have a love hate for them because for one I'm really not a romantic and two there often a little too cheesy for me. There is one movie that almost made me cry, Comet. It's a journey through a couples relationship: the meeting, during, a break up, reuniting, huge fight leading to the final break, and reuniting after someone has moved on. The way the story is told is interesting because it goes back and forth and has many stylistic shots. I think I really connected to it because it really reminded me of my last relationship. I have been thinking about it a lot because my ex and I have been talking more often. It makes me feel strange. It brings a lot of different memories, bad and good. I feel like I'm in a dream sometimes like our relationship never happened but sometimes differentiating dreams and reality is difficult. I'm talking crazy but if you ever been in a failed relationship and watch the movie you will understand more. Also I never realized Justin Long is a handsome man.
With all these weird feelings, I have to come back to Earth, so I think of the ending scene of The Graduate. (Maybe I'm too pessimistic?)
