† 50 first dates †

napanood mo na ba yung movie na 50 first dates? ung kay drew barrymore at adam sandler. i did. and i loved it. un nga lang, akala ko romantic-comedy un, pero nalungkot ako. i pity the girl in the movie. kasi, it's like the girl's memory for a day's duration is erased every time she sleeps, 'coz she went through an accident which has damaged her brain, so her brain could not process new information. kaya for her, hindi nagbabago ung date. everyday for her is a deja vu except that she doesn't know a thing at all. like for example if the accident happened on april 6, everyday of her life will be april 6th for her. and they can't tell her what has happened kasi mixed emotions ung mararamdaman n'ya dba? at kahit sabihin sa kanya, malilimutan nya rin kinabukasan.

Drew Barrymore as Lucy, 50 first dates.


there's even the part where, they (she and adam) first kissed, and she said, "nothing beats the first kiss.". it's supposed to be funny 'coz she's like saying it everyday, but i feel sad for her, because a first kiss is supposed to be remembered. mahirap din sa part nung guy. kasi isipin mo naman dba, he has to win Lucy's heart everyday of his life.

but i honestly envy her. coz, at least she forgets...

san ba nakakabili ng "selective amnesia"? i think i badly need one. better yet, kailangan kong mamakyaw. =(

by the way, my nabasa akong text, and it goes like this:

"someone told me that when i was young, i was asked either to have my memory erased or to have you in my life, from then on i can't remember anything, and that explains why."
