Sometimes I feel like I want my life to be a film.

But not a sappy, happily-ever-after Hollywood film.

I want it to be one of those artsy foreign films with subtitles.

There would be a group of young adults.
They would be smoking in the middle of a crowded basement in Germany.
There would be the sound of deafening music, drowning out all rational thought.

These kids  - because they are kids - would be lost and confused and have no idea where they're going in life.

Then, there's going to be a long shot of the cobbled streets above.

The camera will focus on the paved ground that's covered in drops of rain from the storm earlier.

The film will be dark and grungy and brutally honest.

But like a good any good foreign film, everything shown will somehow retain a lucid sense of romanticism.
