Lazy Monday

Heyy!!
 
Public Holidays on Mondays are a bliss.
I woke up like 9am, had my bath like 5pm; I have barely moved from one spot sef *smiles sheepishly*

Anyway, I decided to watch this movie 'The Lobster' written and directed by Yorgos Lanthimos. (Yeah if you've seen it, I know I carried last, and if you haven't; hehe jokes on you). It stars Collins Farrell as David (he had to be fat for this character, well not fat but not regular Collins either, lol. P.S: you got to love his accent) and Rachael Weisz as the short sighted woman, and some other actors and actresses.
When someone asked me what the movie was about I said 'its not something to be described in a few words'

What intrigued me and I decided to see it was the caption; An unconventional love story. (Lemme just say that love movies are blehh and too predictable, and this clearly said unconventional). In my opinion the whole movie was unconventional.
I asked myself 'this idea was in someone's mind?'

Heard of Utopian? The movie is dystopian. The city in which single people are given 45 days to find a partner (note: not fall in love) or be turned into an animal.
They are against single people sef. There was a scene where David (Collins Farrell) was standing by himself and a police man asked for his marriage certificate, and because he was single he had to lie that it was in his wife's purse and she was shopping for something. The police man was about to begin the hunt for 'the wife' when she just appeared and was like 'darling sorry for keeping you waiting'. Imagine?!
Biko I don't want to live in a time like that if it ever happens.

I believe the essence of the movie was to expose the pros and cons of being in a relationship and being single.

You don't even want me to start on how the movie ended (lol, see what I did there?). It reminded me of The book in the Fault in our stars -Imperial Affliction by Peter Van Houten .

I guess that's my form of a review.

Well that's just one of the things I did today.
I hope your day was amazing.


With love, theInspiredCutiee 

If you’ve been following these series, you know they started off as a rant, but I decided to be inspiring, (as usual, hehe). If you haven’t (where have you been!) – you can read the Kick Off , Part 1 , Part 2 , Part 3 . I concluded part 3 saying watch out for myth 3… (still watch out!) ‘I thrive on purpose’, ‘I exist because of purpose’, so what then are the things I should be conscious of during this phase? Literally what lessons should I gather from my singleness? This requires a critical look at Genesis 2: 8-17: 1.       Place: God has a purpose for every place He puts me, He wants me to see, learn something before He can show me the next step. For example; He placed me in my family for a reason. Ironically many (myself inclusive) place ourselves and source for a person or people to validate this place we’ve placed ourselves. Even more sadly, many (myself inclusive) fight the place God has placed us. 2.      Pu...

Short story type of day

I wrote this while I was in church (please don't judge me , it just popped in my mind and I began to write) She felt something slowly tickle her face, she ignored it the first and second time, then it began to move more rapidly than before. She woke up in a startle, disoriented and wondered what could have been causing this, it felt like it was on her face, she touched her face and it was wet, 'what's this?' she asked herself because it was dark. She quickly jumped up and flicked the switch on.. She screamed when she saw it was blood! The small dark spot on her pillow and on her nightie (when she sat up) were both evidence that she was bleeding from her nose. 'No, no not again' she cried. 'This can't be happening again' she said! Then she quickly remembered she was to tilt her head up whenever her nose began to bleed, she tilted her head and waited a couple of minutes but it didn't stop. She began to panic because she was loosin...

In case you don’t know, music is one of my inspirations; good music is therapeutic, good music is food for the soul and mind, in colloquial terms – music is the Inspired Cutiee’s bae! Good music entails beautifully written lyrics, (as clichéd as it may sound; words are everything) good rhythm and beat, (you just can’t help but fall in love with the blend and synchronisation of time and sound, it is literally magical) and of course abundant harmony of voice or voices. Well, this is my definition of good music, argue with your two left legs *walks away* Whenever I stumble on good music (perhaps it’s not a stumble – hmm notes to self) these things happen: ·           I can’t help but share how it teleports me to another realm ·          Scream it at the top of my lungs ·          Basically just keep it on repeat ·          ...
