I just watched Letters To Juliet again. cos Joanna was talking about it on facebook. but it's so romantic.

You know how we wished our lives were fairytales and that we'd fall in love perfectly and all? It's like, the characters in the movie seemed to wish the same. How they talked about Romeo & Juliet and all.

It's quite romantic what the male character said, about how he definitely is not Romeo, cos he doesn't just keep whispering at the balcony while Juliet is there. He would just grab her.

But it's just quite sad. Cos movies are... well, movies. They are things that you can't really expect to happen in real life. so firstly i can't wish that i would fall in love perfectly. Then, i can't even wish that i'm someone who wished they would fall in love perfectly and in the end really do.

does that make sense?

gosh. and seriously, why does everything have to be in Verona?

and why can't people fall in love like in movies?

sometimes i just imagine myself emo-ing, as i always do, but really really depressed and all. and someone i know would ask what's wrong, and i'll just say how i wished that whoever i liked would like me back. then that person would tell me how whoever wouldn't want me was an idiot. and that he himself liked me. or i'd prefer the word love.

honestly, that ain't too far-fetched. half of it has already happened before. the part on how 'whoever wouldn't want me was an idiot'. i changed the words. the words i heard were "i don't understand why any guy wouldn't want a girl like you." sadly, that's why. they just don't. i doubt the person who even said that meant it.

love is a 2-way thing right? is love something that feels extraordinary, out-of-this-world? i wonder how long i'd have to wait to find out. i wonder if i ever will. i definitely want to.
