A movie adaptation of a manga/anime series I am following, 好きっていいなよ (Say “I Love You”). Another plain-jane-falls-for-handsome-and-popular-guy type of story (or is it the other way round?). It’s kind of unbelievable that a popular guy would fall for a plain jane like that, but who cares? It’s just a fictional story. The movie captured pretty much most of the important…

bokura ga ita
Yet another film adapted from a manga series. 僕等がいた (Bokura ga Ita) is a high school romance story about a girl named Takahashi Nanami who fell for the popular boy, Yano Motoharu. Always the same trope but I never get sick of such stories. Haha. I started out watching the anime series and liked it so much that I continued reading…
kyou, koi wo hajimemasu
I’m the kind of person that likes to watch and read the same series to compare the treatment of the story in different mediums. 今日、恋をはじめます (Kyou, Koi wo Hajimemasu) is another film adapted from a manga series about plain jane Hibino Tsubaki who gets teased by the popular guy in her high school, Tsubaki Kyouta but eventually falls for him. A…
helter skelter
I don’t watch movies nowadays (especially at the cinema), but I do enjoy Japanese movies. I’m not being bias here and I’ll say that I have watched a Japanese movie or two which sucked. I like thought-provoking movies, the kind that would make me want to share my thoughts/opinion…like now. *Note: There may be a few spoilers in my commentary.…
the last entry
I guess this should be my so-called last entry in diaryland. Since tomorrow is July already and I wanted to start afresh in my blog so that the archives wouldn’t be so messy. Everything’s almost done there. I need to back up all my entries here and transfer them there. Certain links have to be done up as well. I’m…
the guys and girls
Hurhur, I think I kinda ditched the idea to blog about my trip. Nothing much to say except that stuff was cheap, food was salty and oily and we visited a lot of temples and so-and-so’s house from the past. Thursday, Sis and I celebrated Joyce’s birthday at Sushi Tei in Paragon. After dinner, we went to Mise S*Clusive. AGAIN.…
a heffalumpish story
Went down to The Amara to lunch with Sis at O’Briens since I have a voucher and it was also to visit Joyce. After which, we caught “Pooh’s Heffalump Movie”. Surrounded by lots of kids. Haha, the 2 of us…the only big kids. I like how Winnie The Pooh stories are circled around the topic of friendship and learning to…
lemony snicket
Today’s my grandma’s birthday. We celebrated with her yesterday. Simple meal together. And I was quite relieved/glad that my grandpa actually talked a bit. Ever since he had a little accident years ago, he became quite withdrawn and because of that, he started to age a lot quicker. Watched “Lemony Snicket’s A Series Of Unfortunate Events”. Quite a nice show…
man and man living in harmony
Finally watched Casshern yesterday. It was TPJCG’s interclub screening where we invited groups/clubs from different schools with the same interest. One of our alumni members bought the imported DVD. The movie should be showing soon in the cinema…or maybe it is showing now? Cathay cinemas…which is pretty much Cineleisure since the other cineplex is in the west. I enjoyed the…
the usuals
As usual, woke up really late. Was supposed to go watch this movie at the IMAX with Sis. “Young Black Stallion”…I think that’s the title of the movie. Sis is crazy about horses so yea. Anyway, Sis woke up real late too so we had to give it a miss. Couldn’t get Per. Wanted to ask her whether she was…
