A walk to remember

Last Saturday night, before we went down to riverside point, i was at AF's house.

ZX and AF was modifying our transmitter box, Jolin was playing PS 2 games. I was pretty bored, the room was pretty cramped, so i went out to the living room and turned on the telly.

CS came later. And both of us sat down in front of the telly. I was surfing the channels, and when i came to channel 5, there's a movie showing. It looked like a nice movie, and so, i stopped surfing.

Absent-mindly, i asked CS what's the movie.

"A walk to remember", was her reply. "Its a romantic, touching movie, and the soundtrack is very nice."

I was not really one for a romantic movie. But since the other channels are showing crap, that movie seems like the best choice.

And so, i watched.

Indeed. Its a nice movie. Its about this gal, who is suffering from cancer, fell in love with a guy, who loves her also. In a way, she is prepared to die from her disease, and is able to let go of everything, until that guy comes along. And that guy did lots of things for her.

They got married and the gal died.

. It's a touching movie, all right.

As i said, its a movie. But in real life, does it happen this way? Imagine a gal dying of cancer, can her bf spend the last few months or years to make her happy? Or will he dump her faster than you can say "hello" and go after some other pretty young skirts?

What will you do, when someone you loves is dying of an uncurable disease?

The song in my blog is the OST of the movie, "A walk to remember", only hope, by Mandy Moore.

Enjoy.
