I did 10 minutes of hard running on my elliptical machine listening to some music like Dean Martin's Mambo Italiano, MGMT's My Little Dark Age, Foster and the People's Pumped Up Kicks and then Taylor Swift's Wildest Dreams.
I had Thai fish fillet and Thai rice with Thai Red Curry for dinner. My mum kept my coke bottle outside, so it was warm. I still drank a bit of warm coke, not bad. It even had bubbles. I hope we can get carbonation tanks to get those bubbles I love. I kept it in the fridge.
I can eat my leftover pizza later tonight when I get hungry. I am studying the Oscars/ Academy Awards guidelines. I want to contest in this. I want to try and win a Best Picture award at the Oscars. But not Best Foreign Film as with Jonathan's help in California we can play it locally in US.

I like movies. Everyone loves movies. I think that people like Chandran Ratnam and various individuals, we can use their help to make these movies. I like my script a lot, it is a good first effort. It looks promising. I want to try to shoot it in 35mm, but maybe first in a mobile phone.
I feel strongly that in order to win at the Oscars, there is a lot of politics of subjectivity, that is, there is a lot of persuasive lobbying involved, you must be well-connected, spend a lot and do a lot of hard work behind the scenes.
I am happy even if there are good songs in this movie. I can have professional singers sing those songs. This does not disqualify the actors. It is going to be pretty cool.
