Cool On The Exterior, Warm Within
O Manly Tears

I went to work today, eyes puffy, not from lack of sleep but coz I cried last night.
You know how korean dramas, no matter how comical it may be at times, often have those few episodes which are heart-wrenchingly sad? I was finishing up this drama series before my brother returned it to the rental shop and it so happened that the last two eps were such. By the time the disc ended its run, my nose was blocked and my voice was husky in that tear-drenched manner.
How silly, you say? I agree.
Perhaps my bro knew me best. Earlier in the afternoon, he smsed me while he was watching the drama, "Better get ready some tissues tonight..." But when I questioned him afterwards, he insisted that he didn't shed a tear coz "he's man". Bah.
I realise I tend to tear harder when I'm watching alone. I remember years back, I was watching A.I on DVD, with headphones on my head and tears running down my cheeks.
I'm not the kind of girl who cries prettily. Actually, I find it hard to believe that anyone can. But actresses often prove me otherwise. It's like some elusive art form that I will never achieve. Someone teach me if you know how, please?
