OMGosh, I have a splitting headache right now =P I got off school early (like around 11) cos I was sick with ugly bad stomach pains. Yuckkkkkkkkkk. Anyhow, it just turns out somethings wrong with my (ahem) kidney glands or seomthing (anyhow, it's just that I might [but i dont] have problems letting out faeces hehe)

I watched more of "A Step Into The Past" yesterday and it was sooooo sad. It also made me real mad cos of what happened in the movie. [For all you Chinese and Viet people (they translate movies sometimes), please turn away unless you want spoilers]

Alrite, you see, the whole plot of the movie is this guy (Hong Sil Luong which roughly means Small Dragon Hong, but I'll just call him Louis cos that's the actor's name) travels back in time (sounds lame, I know, but it's not, actually). Anyhow, he went back to China, in the year 0, and was supposed to stay there for half an hour only, but he wound up having to stay there for three years. And right now, in this chapter (cos its TVB, and it's tv series in Hong Kong), a good friend of Louis (i'll call her Laila) has to give this report thing back to him which, inside of it, tells you how to create an unbeatable weapon [Louis had to take the princess away]. But the dickhead of the movie (I'll call him Lucius) has captured her son (I'll call him Jason) and she has to give him the report in exchange of Jason.

Well, Laila gives Lucius a fake one and runs away once Jason is with her. But Lucius finds out and chases after them. They ran up to a bridge, which Jason runs across reluctantly cos he mother was gonna get caught. She kept on screaming "Run, Jason! Don't worry about me, RUN!!" Then she chopped of the rope holding the bridge and Lucius caught her.

He tortured her, when he was at his home, whipping her and taunting her about her past (she was kinda like a slut/prostitue) and why she liked Louis so much. She replied that Louis repects her, and not because of her body and face. Because he helped her to learn to respect and rediscover herself and calls Lucius names. Lucius holds a sword to her throat and she told him to kill her. Lucius laughed and said, "I won't do that" and sends his soldiers off to have "some fun with her".

After a while, Laila is lying on a bed alone, tears sliding off her face. Echoes of what happened were played. It was Laila's screams of "Let me go!!" and the soldiers laughs and taunts. They had sexually abused her/raped her, since her clothes were ripped and stuff. She then went off to find poison, since suicide is better than what she was going through.

Jason was trying to find his mother, and overhead two soldiers laughing and bragging on about what they did and how they did. It pissed him off so badly. One went off to chuck a shit and he attacked the other one, knocking him out. He then went to a room -- the one Laila was in -- found her, sitting there, her eyes dull, as she coughed up heaps of blood. He quickly knelt down and wrapped his arms around his mother, tears streaming down his face. His mother reminded him to give the report to Louis -- his mentor -- whilst spitting blood and coughing badly. She then put up a quivering hand to Jason's cheek and stroked it. After that, she nodded back and died. Jason then screamed out "MOTHER!!" (in Cantonese, it sounds like "LERNG CHUN!!") and swore to take revenge on Lucius.

*Sob* It was so so so sad. I was crying [but then again, I cry when people die in movies unless the person who died was a dickhead] extremely softly cos my Dad was watching too. If I was watching by myself, I'd be bawling and tissues would be surrounding my feet.

Sighs...a girl (I'll call her Jessica cos thats her real name) in the movie jumped off a cliff, but I don't think she died cos she was one of the main characters. She jumped off cos this guy betrayed her and given her up to some guy so that some guy could rape her. Tsk. Tres sad. Tsk, tsk, tsk.

And plus, Lucius told the Emperor (who was the father of the princess [duh] and Laila's godbrother) that Laila died and suspected that Louis did it. Emperor believed him because he was well-respected around those areas, and now they're following Louis everywhere, hoping to kill him. Tsk, tsk, tsk
