Bumpy night

I watched this film tonight :: All About Eve :: and it was super cool. As you probably know I'm not one for sitting and watching a movie and as soon as I saw that this one goes for TWO HOURS + EIGHTEEN MINUTES I just went 'buuuh' but I *had* to watch it because my little sister is studying it for year 12 and I am helping her with English so you know. So I bit the bullet and pressed play and you know I really enjoyed it. I enjoyed it like I enjoyed Valley of the Dolls which is also an amazing film, 10/10 would recommend. 

I guess it's kind of late by my funny standards again - I keep staying up later than I intend, and later, and then later...I think I'm becoming the night owl I always wanted to be when I was little. The downside of that is that I simply cannot drag myself to a 6am gym session, which I used to so idealistically do some mornings. I guess I like the night time because there is no distraction of the day which forces me to do and achieve and be, you know. I can just sit and watch a movie because it's night and everyone's asleep and things can wait at least until the morning.

A lot of people don't like the night. I think I don't like the day; my greatest achievements happen in the dark. Ideas, words, art, not to mention my job - singing, playing - I write songs about the dark, about walking down the street at 3am or lying on the beach at dusk drinking goon out of a plastic cup - day is too blunt, too obvious. Night is mysterious but content. I think if I were a colour I'd be navy - not quite black, the sky at night.
