Story About Love..A Love Story...What's The Diff?!

It's official: I have finally watched (500) Days of Summer. I can now die a happy man.

Basically, it's a romance story without the happy ending. Presented in a unconventional and non-linear way, (500) Days of Summer is also story about modern love. It's unique from the rest of the romantic comedies as it shows the reality of a real relationship. Sure, it's a little dramatic at times but there are times we had those ecstatic moments where we do a little celebration when the relationship is heading down a path that we like.

After watching this film, I can't help but relate this to my love life. Yeah yeah, I know I sound cliched right now but bear with me. The role I'm playing is Tom, the guy who is helplessly in love with a girl and everything about her while Yan Ting is Summer. It took me many months to finally get over her.

This is a film that will definitely be stuck on me for many years to come because it is relatable to me. It's a sad thing that Yan Ting is gone from my life but I got to take care of myself and do the things that I'm passionate about.

(500) Days of Summer is a personal favourite of mine even if you mainstream people don't like it..So beat it! =D
