"i always want to do music that influence and inspire people each generation. i mean, let's face it, i mean, who wants mortality? i mean everyone wants immortality. you want what you create to live, be it sculpture or painting or music or a composition like michelangelo said, you know,
"i know the creator will go, but his work survives, that is why to escape death, i attempt to bind my soul to my work."
i give my all in my work coz i want it to just live and give all that i have, you know, and it has to be that way."
---michael jackson in his last interview with ebony magazine in 2007
so long, michael! as what you've said, your legacy shall live forever.

whatever works!
this is the first woody allen movie i've watched. it's odd, but i finally realized why people love allen so much.
the story is very simple. a disgruntled older man, boris, who believes that he's genius, meets a mississippi runaway in front of his place. he gives her shelter and they eventually wed. the girl, who's still a little naive, obtains all his ideology about love and life, including his motto of "whatever works!" the girl's incredibly religious mom comes to find her after being left by her husband. she turns wild, sleeps with 2 of boris' good friends, and discovers her hidden talent of photography. the mom, disapproving boris' relationship with her daughter, also decides to introduce the daughter to a british actor, whom the girl eventually has an affair with. the girl eventually leaves boris. before that, the girl's dad comes to ask for the mother's forgiveness, only to discover that deep down inside he actually likes guys! he meets a man whom he has a relationship with.
how about boris? finding life to be meaningless, he tries to plunge down from his apartment for the second time of his life, only to find that he falls on top of a girl. yep, they eventually become a couple!
i know that the movie is a little bit bizzare, but the concept is expressed brilliantly! i love larry david, especially after taking an interest in seinfeld. the joblessness has made me an avid tv sitcom watcher.
4th of july in 3 days' time. do hope i could go to the family fun center to go kart and rock climb.
