Everyday Stories, Lived

The time I felt like I was in a movie

Going to the Chimei Museum from Tainan City via train also meant that we would drop off at Bao’an Station.

And you know what? I felt like I was walking into a movie when I stepped in and out of that train station. The ambience was unmistakably nostalgic, like time traveling to a serene and historical past.

So, I took a photo of it to remind me what it felt like to be there the first time.

Nine months later, after seeing the Bao’an train station in 18×2 Beyond Youthful Days on Netflix, I thought about how it just fits right to be in a movie.

Actually, watching that Netflix movie made me feel again the things I felt that day, being in that train station, even the things I felt after spending a week in Tainan—nostalgic and aesthetically romantic.
