I enjoy embarrassing myself
Monday, January 16, 2006

I've just attended a Q&A with Annie Proulx. She was absolutely fascinating and intelligent. They showed the trailer of Brokeback Mountain before she came in and everyone loved it. There was even three or four people on the verge of tears [including myself lol]. I also saw a very old woman [she was at least 80] asking when was the movie coming out and where she could find the book. I thought that was so cute. :)

I had the honour to ask Ms. Proulx the two worst questions of the evening, and her answers were something like this:

"I didn't dislike The Shipping News. I think they did a good job. It was shot in Nova Scotia, which was something very important for me."

"No, I don't think the success of Brokeback Mountain will have any effects on my next book."

I'm so random. lol. I'm awfully shy and my English sucks and I swear I didn't even know what was I saying. Afterwards, when she was signing my Brokeback poster, I told her that I loved her books and all that stuff [which is true] and something very corny regarding Brokeback Mountain like "Thank you for reflecting what it's like to love someone you can't be with". She seemed very flattered about it. Then I thought I hadn't embarrassed myself enough, so I asked her to have her picture taken with me. I bet she'll always remember me as that stuttering teenager that annoyed the hell out of her. lol.

I'm seeing the movie in FOUR days!
