What do you do if you can’t sleep at night?

There you go.
The final scene of The Hours reminded me of my worst days. But I loved how the scene captured Virginia's (and other characters') release of whatever it is they've been clinging on to. A bad scheme, I suppose.
I loved the music, the transitions, the words, and pretty much everything else.
Long live Virginia Woolf.

What was the last movie you watched? Did you like it?

inside llewyn davis - i thought the movie was really hard to watch because of the slow pace and the (basically) sad storyline. the movie felt really long and it ended with an anti-climatic conclusion. all in all it wasn't a great movie, but it's enjoyable in its way, still.

how to convince your parents to give you blessings to do what you like to do? i'm so desperate to hear your answer

I guess it depends on what it is that you want to do.
I know what it feels like when we believe that people are getting in the way between us and what we want. But I also know that as we grow up, we tend to realize that they did it for a good cause. Especially when they're your parents. I do believe that as I grow older, I understand that they have the best intentions for us- even if it's really hard to seep in to at first.
I grew up ignoring the advices that were given to me and I shut my ears tight. I learned that it got me to bad places and stuff in the end. No regrets, though. Experiences are excellent.
So I guess maybe you need to rethink what it is that you want, is it worth it, do they have a point in their argument, etc. Try to be objective as possible and see it through both perspectives.
Other than that, if they're basically limiting your capabilities and the potential of great opportunities, then I guess it won't hurt to state your opinion and tell them wisely of how it would affect you in a positive way. I'm sure if you do it in a subtle method of communicating, they'll understand in the end. All they want is, after all, a good future for you.
