20:05: my friend dropped by to pick up frankie. i was away for two days and two nights, staying at a friend's. i didn't get to give him a proper goodbye. *sniff*
i finally watched the last samurai. i wasn't sure if i would like it so i never bothered to see it. i was afraid that they would infuse too many western ideas in the eastern philosophy. i love the japanese culture. i must have been japanese in a past life. and my love for swordsports has instilled in me a huge amount of respect for the samurai class and the samurai code.
i liked the movie. a lot. they had me scared a bit with how the story was going, but that ending was beautiful. before i knew it, i was sniffling and etoile was sniffling, and we had a box of tissues between us. it's not a weeper. i cried because i love the japanese culture and they showed it well.
