// Nice and nicely done

With theory done and dusted (omg partaay), all I can do now is to pray that God will have mercy on me albeit my laziness and procrastination in preparing for the exam, and let me pass.

Met up with Rui and Eme yesterday. As usual, our outings always end up laughing at disgusting people (there are too many in Cine) and spitting food all over the table.

I also watched Koizora with Fuiyi last night, it's a good movie albeit its cliche plot and high school setting: Boy meets girl in 1st year, fall in love, make love, get pregnant, get damn excited about having baby, jealous ex arranges girl to be kidnapped and raped, girl gets miscarraige, boy and girl bury the 'body' and vow to come back every year to remember it, boy breaks up with girl in 2nd year without saying why, girl gets devastated and confused, boy ignores her, girl finds new boy in university, girl finds out from a friend that the other boy got cancer so he broke up with her, girl runs to hospital in the cold bitter winter, boy and girl reunite, boy dies.

That's the longest sentence I've ever typed. Sorry for any spoilers. :D

Anyway, it's a good movie because it appeals to the cell-phone generation by centering the plot (very subtley, I might add) around the significance of these indispensable gadgets to us. On the last day of school before summer break, the girl, Maki lost her phone in the library, and a boy, Hiro, found it. He started calling her every day in the summer without telling her his name, and just like that, two strangers fell in love. Then all the confusing drama-mama stuff happened, but the most poignant moment, I feel, was when he was on his deathbed and the girl was running to the hospital to see him. She called him and used 3G techonology to speak to him. The last thing he saw before he died was her face and the last thing he heard was her voice, so he breathed for the last time with a smile on his face and tears in his eyes.

Haha okay I know I've failed to exude the meaningfulness behind this. Anyway I think a lot of people would find the show a waste of money because it was probably too fast-paced and unrealistic. But they fail to realise the essence of the show, that it follows a cell-phone based novel and it has to be like this. That's the beauty of Jap movies and dorama. They'll never exploit and tarnish a novelist's story by modifying its original plot to suit audience's expectations.

So yes, it's a show worth my ten bucks. Plus, the lead guy is DAMN GORGEOUS. (x
