> 'And I Held Your Hand, And Walked Right Up The Bus'



I watched 'Heartbreaker' on a whim alone sometime last week, after reading about the movie being featured in the French Film Festival. The movie review said something along the lines of 'even the most jaded hearts could be warmed', so naturally I just had to watch it.

I don't think I'm jaded. At least I hope not, at 24. I guess I just grew up. I still believe in love, I still believe in a 'forever'. I still do the cheesiest things and dream a little about a white picket-fence house and perhaps a little child running around and then maybe running into his daddy's arms while I look on and smile at my little family. Ok ok, maybe that's too idealistic, even for me. But yes, I still do believe in my type of realistic 'forever'.

Being a romantic at heart, I think my standards of 'romantic' is definitely set high. But of course, I've been hurt before and hurt can do many things to you, including not believing. Not believing that good things can still come your way. Oh yes, and putting up a wall automatically for the next person who comes around, having them claw harder to reach who you really are inside. And then there's the ever-guarding heart - when things are going well, you secretly wonder if something bad might happen soon. Yep, hurt does all these things to you.

But the movie didn't exactly make me swoon and all. I smiled at certain parts, yes, warmed slightly by it even, but I left thinking, that's still a movie.

It's the little things that the movies overlook. It's those little things, putting in the effort to make you happy, that matters.

Thank you for showing me that. The things I don't need to see in the movies, but through the little things that you do.




"Women in couples come in three categories: happy, knowingly unhappy,
 and unhappy without admitting it."
- Alex Lipli, 'Heartbreaker'

<3 you :*
