Twilight

I just finished watching the movie care of Mia. She downloaded it because she knew how much i wanted to see it. i've never ever read the book, despite the hype my sister had for it. i've never really known the story the only knowledge i had of it was that it was about vampires. that's exactly why i didnt want to read it. i dont care much for the sci-fi, mystical literature in our popculture. added to that my older friends found the movie too girly, saying Edward was a glorified fairy that glowed in the sunlight.

but i watched it.

and i loved it.

i really did.

sitting here in matteo and waiting for our ride to green meadows for yet another all-nigher for LS i decided to unwind. the movie was a bit lagging and there were some really slow scenes but wow the love story, the part that i adore the most, was really great. most of the time i was texting M. how much i missed him and stuff because watching a romantic movie and not being able to share it with my romantic other really frustrates me. symbolically the movie reminds me of M. and i. not being able to be completely together and yet choosing to do so despite differences and obstacles. love conquering boundaries and being the elixir of our strengths.

yeah i sound like some love-sick fool. and perhaps i am. but its the after currents of watching the movie. man showing his strength. man trying to avoid girl. girl trying to understand man. girl trying to be ms. independent. man not being able to resist. girl not helping him resist.

the patterns are just so very very parallel.
