19

:) yesterday, I was fully occupied from day break till night with Linette's birthday! I made her breakfast (and her brother as well), followed by an afternoon nap (heh damn tired la), finishing the evening off with dinner at Lawry's, and a movie (New Year's Eve) at Kallang Leisure Park.

I'm glad she had fun! We all turn 19 only once.

Anyway, I was thinking about the movie. Movies are generally films about something, right? There has to be a plot, a story, or an issue or something. "New Year's Eve" was about New Year's Eve, eh? So don't you think that some time in the distant future, maybe... 1000 years from now, we'll have exhausted all the possible combinations for movie plots and ideas?

I mean, who's going to want to do another movie in the future about an unsinkable ship which hit an iceberg and sank to the bottom of the ocean? Who's going to want to do a movie about... body-snatchers from outer space? I know these are very specific examples but you can see how, given a long period of time, the ideas for plots can be exhausted.

What then? What happens to creativity after every, single idea conceivable has been used before? Are we then left with nothing to write about, film, sing about? How about tunes? I mean, documented music has only been around for so long, and has a long way ahead of it, and maybe I'm just being uncreative, but I cannot see how there is a "unlimited" well of creativity. Sooner or later, ideas are going to have to be reused. Or built upon another. What happens to creativity then?

Haha just a thought accompanying my early Sunday morning coffee. Good day everyone!
