A Walk To Remember - Film Review & Thoughts

SPOILER ALERTS. READ THE BOOK OR WATCH THE FILM FIRST.

My amazing sister, convinced me that the film 'A walk to remember', was worth the watch. It really was.

To begin with, I had no idea how it would pan out. Until however, I thought I knew exactly how it would end - in the cliché style; in which the bad guy falls in love with the good girl and vise versa. I was wrong... in a way. I had in mind that it would be the type of plot line, in which they live happily ever after. SPOILER ALERT: They do not... or do they.

See I am a hopeless romantic and I pray to God that my future partner will be able to cope with that. As soon as the couple started to flirt and fall in love, I was smiling for them. I just love the sight of two people being in love (despite the fact that they were acting but nevertheless I loved it). The idea that their love did not last forever never struck me. I believe this is because, they showed that they would never fall out, no matter where they are. This is a love that I crave the most, one that lasts and lasts no matter what.

One point that I thought I should raise is the fact that at no stage throughout the movie, did the couple openly do anything more than kiss - something I think was so beautiful. They shared intimate moments however, that does not mean that it involved sex or the idea of it. In a relationship, I think that is the most important part. The idea that you can have such special moments with another individual and they don't have to be of a sexual nature - something a number of people tend to forget in this day and age.

All in all, the film has now become one of my favorites. I ended up balling my eyes out and running to my woman cave. I even sent a voice note on a group chat or me crying - I needed to tell someone. To anyone who reads this, I hope that you enjoyed the film and that you one day share a love so deep with someone, that you never fall out of it.

What are your favorite films?

Looking For Alaska - Book Review

anna

Looking For Alaska written by John Green: a book that a number believe is overrated, something I believe is not true.

It looks like my finger is bleeding - It isn't, I just doodle a vast amount.

Over the Easter break, I made it my mission to complete the book. I honestly loved it. I thought it was 1000x better than A Fault In Our Stars - a book that I stopped reading about 8 pages till the end as I found that I was just forcing myself to read it at that stage (I also disliked the film - of course I liked the idea of having my very own Augustus Waters).

I always seem to be the last one to catch on the trends etc and TFIOS was one of them however this book seemed different. At no stage did I think I was wasting my time reading it. Despite the plot being predictable and slightly unrealistic, I loved the fact that I could relate so much to it - without actually have ever been in situations like that myself. It was as if I knew the main characters in real life.

Whilst reading this book, I took a lot from it. It made me realise a number of different things and made me think in depth. I loved the way it was written and structured.

My favorite quotes being:

'If people were rain, I was drizzle and she was a hurricane'

'The sum of our parts cannot begin and cannot end, and so it cannot fail'

'We cannot be born and we cannot die. Like all energy...'

This was a book that I could have written about for hours.

Any book suggestions?
Next I'm reading It I Stay by Gayle Forman - Book Review to come

Screw them,

Stay you
