Thanks guys for the most memorable two years, I couldn't have asked for a more wonderful class. I'm nursing a broken heart right now, really, that's the only way to describe it. I love you guys so much, and thinking about all the times we spent together makes me so..........don't ask me if i'm "okay"

Do you know how I feel? I feel humiliated and vulnerable.

"this is a story of a boy meets girl."
Ok seriously, 500 days of summer is ultimate perfection, I have never watched a more perfect movie. I mean, come on, I'm dedicating a whole blog post to it, what does that say about it? It is just perfect in every aspect, ok Harry Potter is a complete exception cause Harry Potter is special in my heart and nothing can replace it HAHA I sound so dramatic but that's really how I feel. Anyway back to 500 days of summer, it's just so good and quirky and totally not a typical cookie cutter movie of the sorts. It's funny in an ironic kinda way and it's really, really sweet, but not in that typical, romance movie way. The movie is just how do you put it.... honest. It's so painstakingly honest and you really feel like you learnt something at the end of it. Alright I actually watched it before in primary six but I was too young to appreciate such a great movie like this back then! Rewatching it again today made me realised it's pure perfection.
Firstly, I just love the soundtrack. I mean, how rare is it that you actually watch a movie where you love just about every single song in it? Most amazing, wonderful, peaceful, lovely soundtrack ever and 500 days of summer just has the best music in it.
Secondly, it has the best, weirdest, funniest, yet most weirdly moving quotes.
"I liked this girl and she took a giant shit on my face. Literally."
"Literally?"
"What? No, not literally, that's disgusting. What's wrong with you?''
and
"Just because she likes the same bizzaro crap you do, doesn't mean she's your soulmate."
not to mention, at the very beginning of the entire movie:
"This is a story of a boy meets girl. The boy, Tom Hansen of Margate, New Jersey, grew up believeing that he'd never truly be happy until he met the one. This belief stemmed from early exposure to sad British pop music and a total misreading of the movie "The Graduate". The Girl, Summer Finn of Shinnecock, Michigan, did not share this belief. Since the disintegration of her parent's marriage, she's only loved two things. The first was her long dark hair. The second was how easily she could cut it off and not feel a thing. Tom meets Summer on January 8th. He knows almost immediately she is who he has been looking for. This is a story of a boy meets girl, but you should know upfront, this is not a love story."
and there is just so much more but aaaaah with the exception of Harry Potter, with no doubt 500 days of summer is seriously my favourite movie. Oh running a close second though is Letters to Juliet.
no matter how far

It's better to be extremely happy for a short while, then to just be okay your whole life
I remember being extremely happy but it never lasted.
Being extremely happy for a short while makes anything that is okay feel pretty stupid. I don't even think I've even felt extremely happy in my entire life? What is the definition of extremely happy anyway? I mean, I've never felt so happy I cried. Tears of joy? That is like a whole, new foreign concept to me. I'm content, that's what I am. I'm happy, I think, I'm more of happy than okay. I remember in a recent Chinese test there was this question in the 理解问答，“你觉得什么才是真的辛福呢？” It was six marks. At that time, I wrote a lot of stuff I didn't really feel cause I just wanted the six marks. I mean, that's the aim when you're doing exams right? To get as much marks as you can. I thought about it afterwards, and happiness is so subjective, I mean so many things make me happy, I seriously can't even list them all. Mundane stuff make me happy, like even if someone smiles at me as I pass them, or says hi, I feel happy. As I am typing this, I suddenly feel so thankful cause I've really managed to be happy majority of the time.
Sometimes happiness can be as simple as drinking water when you feel like it. Or receiving a text from a friend you haven't spoke to in over a year. Something like that.

OMG SO ADORABLE I CAN'T EVEN
replaying it over and over again!!!
And she's actually really talented too, and Rosie is so awkward but she's a pretty little girl. She should learn to hide behind Sophie's spotlight less too.

Aaaahhh I love Coldplay and The Summer Set!!!! And Lifehouse too, kinda reminds me of Christian music in some odd way. Oh and of course Darren Criss. I've been told I have weird music taste though. Anyway life is good, I've been spending the whole day reading my haul from the library and I found Water for Elephants which I have been searching for since forever so I'm super excited to read that, finally finished Half Blood Prince in two days, I want to read Deathy Hallows next. I can forget about my Glee marathons though because thanks to baseball season, Glee is on a hiatus until 1st november. That's like one whole month. I finished all my how i met your mother episodes, I can't believe Barney and Nora I love them, oh and I hate Victoria. I've been watching A very Potter musical by Starkids too. Hmm shall watch some movies tonight, and I'm gonna reread my Inkheart series soon, inspired after watching the trailers on youtube.
Now I bet you guys think I have no life. I went out too! On Thursday. Had loads of fun with Han, Yoon, Tan and Christal!! Gonna go out more in the next few days but to be honest I love the quiet life at home just reading and watching stuff.
