Points of Reference

I think my ponts of reference are movies.

An event, what somebody says or does makes me think of a movie and a scene. A photograph can trigger this off, a word, a person's outfit, the first thing that comes to mind will be a line from a movie or a scene in a movie. I watch a hell of alot of movies unfortunately more on DVD than at the cinema.

I've noticed other people can come up with songs to fit their emotions or a picture or a scene or an event that they have experienced.

Others will remember a piece of writing or poetry.

What is your point of reference?

Movies I saw at the weekend:

'Ping Pong'
'Ong Bak'

Songs do it for me.

I second Stephanie. I don't watch all that many movies.

Definitely songs. Sometimes I like music more, sometimes less because it is attached to a particular memory or a time in my life. I have my i-pod with me all the time. I don't have time to sit and watch as many movies as I'd like to.

My point of reference definitely a song. My best memories could be a soundtrack.

Or smell. I once followed a man through Selfridges because he wore the same cologne as someone, just to keep smelling it as opposed to being a stalker. (It was an unusual fragrance, otherwise I'd have stayed by the perfume counter...!)
