Cynthia is having a sleepover with her friend Megan, and going to see Jonas brothers' new movie. Both of them are big fans of the Jonas bothers, and she told me that was how she and Megan have become friends. Sharing common interests is one of the elements for friendship, but I never thought about being fans to some stars could create friendship. Well, it apparently does.
I decided to have some fun for myself, and accepted Kausar invitation for dinner. Kausar is one of our fellows who has an infectious laughter. She comes from a very rich family of Pakistan, went through divorce (how courageous for a Pakistan woman!), and came to US alone. Because of her personal and career experience, she has great insights to life, literature and art.
We had dinner at an India restaurant, the food is so delicious. I love Indian food in general, my favorite among any kind, but this one is the best I ever had. After the dinner, we hit the movie theater for “the reader”.
This is a movie explicating the complexity of human nature and an enmeshment not easily untangled. The love and passion of Michael to Hanna was soul-rattling, but complicated by Holocaust morality. He simply could not comprehend it. This short summer affair deeply affected his life thereafter. The heaviness of human heart and his struggling for a better understanding were explicated effortlessly in the movie.
Kate Winslet’s acting is so amazing.
It was a fun night.
