Memory

Tonight i went to c a movie called "Memory".
It's the first time for me to join Vancouver film festival.
This movie moved me n i guessed my tears kept coming from my eyes like a tap for half an hour...
It's a documentary filmed in an elderly center.
A few elderly were followed for abt half a year and their daily lives were revealed.
i found several things in common among them:
They are actually pretty cute.
They have their own thoughts and a special way of thinking.
They miss their family members and may burst into tears.
They keep repeating themselves.
They felt lonesome and wanna talk to someone.

As it was said in the movie:
They have the priviledge to choose what they'd like to forget once they are over 80.

The most impressive part was the old lady's boy friend passed away.
she kept forgetting abt it and kept asking for several days.
every time she asked the same questions.
found out the answer and cried badly.
how did he die? when did he die? how come no one tell me abt it? how could i forget if you guys tell me already?
do u know he is a very close friend of me?
after a month or two, she had a new boy friend in the elderly home.

i wonder what'll happen to me when i get old.
my memory is already very bad now... what will happen when i m at the age of 80?
Memory...
