Synopsis from here

Cast: Inoue Mao, Okada Masaki

"Takuma, a boy who is told he will die before he’s 20, and Mayu, a girl who is in love with him…
The story begins when they are little kids. Mayu, whose father is a doctor, meets Takuma, who is hospitalized in her father’s workplace. They develop feelings for each other, but Mayu learns of Takuma’s grave illness and that he will die before he turns 20. The distraught children make one promise for an uncertain future.
Time passes, and the girl becomes a young woman, and the boy, a young man. Mayu continues to support and love Takuma. On the other hand, Takuma, who knows his days are numbered, pushes away his feelings for Mayu and distances himself from her. He cannot stand to see her cry or hurt her more than he already has. Then Mayu meets another man who has feelings for her, and Takuma meets a woman who has the same illness, and their feelings for each other begin to waver.
Misunderstandings, unsaid thoughts, the frustrations and chagrin of youth… What will become of their love while the clock keeps ticking away in Takuma’s life?"

If you ask me, I think its a movie worth watching. Yes, its the typical love story. One of them is sick and at risk of dying, but the other doesn't care, blah blah blah. I guess you can say its something similar to Koizora, but I didn't cry watching koizora.
But watching this makes it feel so real, idk. Maybe I got my emotions back when I left Singapore, or maybe its because I left Singapore thats why I can identify with certain things better now. I actually couldn't stop the tears from flowing. For koizora, I couldn't cry even if I wanted to. Even at the points when I thought to myself "I should cry here.", I couldn't even summon the tears to form. haha, think my emotions have been reawakened ? but yeah, worth watching ! (:
I wanna watch 君に届け(kimi ni todoke) too, but it just came out in Japan a few months ago ! :/

in other news, Yokoyama Yuu from K8 was spotted in Singapore, omg ! how epic is this, so unexpected too ! tskk.

I should be doing the points for my summary presentation, but honestly what the hell. I hate taking Academic English, really truly. let me take another language instead, please ??


A new week starts tomorrow, and because of the new timetable, I start lessons at 11! but there's chem lab, so I'm only going to end at 5. right now, I really feel like drinking something ice cold, preferable with ice cubes so that I can chew on them. Oh, how I miss my ice cubes !
