Ghosts of the Girlfriend's Past

if you have a "playboy" boyfriend, i strongly suggest that you watch this movie with him.. luckily i don't have one, but i liked this movie just the same..

i guess the plot was taken from Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol.. Connor Mead was visited by three ghosts (past, present and future) and the ghost of his uncle Wayne.. it was his uncle who taught him that love is just a magic comfort food for the weak and uneducated.. from then on, he started living his life playing with the girls around him.. imagine, he even makes a video conference to break up with 3 girls at the same time.. what a jerk he was.. but luckily, it was also uncle Wayne who helped him realize that if he continues being a jerk, he will end up alone and lonely..

i guess the most catching scene for me from this movie is when uncle wayne and connor was talking to each other, it rained really hard and uncle wayne said, "these are all the tears that women cried for you".. then after the rain, a lot of tissues fell from the sky, uncle wayne said, "these are all the tissues they used"..

Moral of the story:

Someone once told me that the power in all relationships lies with whoever cares less, and he was right. But power isn't happiness, and i think that maybe happiness comes from caring more about people than less.. - Connor Mead

quotes from feast of love

Do you think love is a trick or do you think that it's the only meaning there is to this crazy dream? - Bradley Thomas

Of course i believe in the second one. Love is the only meaning there is to this crazy dream. And yes, it makes the world go round. Love knows no reason, but it gives reason to the life of many.

There is a story about the greek gods. They were bored, so they invented human beings, but they were still bored, so they invented love. Then they weren't bored any longer, so they decided to try love for themselves. And finally they invented laughter, so they could stand it. - Harry Stevenson

This is a cute but very meaningful story. Well, true as they say, laughter is the best medicine, even to the most painful heartbreak.

Maybe. I saw the most remarkable thing just now. I wandered into the stadium, I thought I was alone but down on the 50-yard line there was a couple making love. I watched for longer then I should have. I was envious. And then I felt sorry for them. There's so much they don't know. Heartbreak they can't even imagine. - Harry Stevenson

When were young, love is grand. Its a wonderful feeling. It even makes us want to go to school. That is, of course, the apple of your eye is your schoolmate. hehe.. But experience is really the best teacher, it makes you realize that love is not just all about the kilig moments or the letters and gifts you give or receive. Unfortunately, it's just one side of the story. Nevertheless, it teaches you a lot of things.

Yes, Harry. She did. And she didn't run away. She didn't crawl into a hole. She found them a house, she threw away her birth control, and she married him. God doesn't hate us, Harry. If he did, he wouldn't have made our hearts so brave. - Bradley Thomas

The most essential thing that we should remember when we are in the point of our lives where everything seems not to be falling in the right place, is that God will not give us a cross that we couldn't carry. He will not give us a heartbreak that our hearts couldn't survive.

feast of love movie..

its amazing how this movie was able to show different kinds of love in about 2hours.. there's the hopeless romantic mr. bradley, who easily falls in love but always does with the wrong person.. both left him for a forbidden love.. his first wife left him for another woman and the next one left him for a married man.. but hey, he never gave up until finally he found someone who deserves the kind of love he's willing and able to give..

chloe on the other hand was in love with oscar.. on one part of the movie, she talked to a psychic and found out what was going to happen to oscar.. instead of saving herself from all the hurt she could experience, she made sure their dreams will come true and she'll make oscar happy..

true and long lasting love was also shown by harry and esther.. they are the kind of couple that the young lovers dream to be like in the future years.. they were always there for each other in the rough moments of their lives (like when they lost their son).. most importantly, you can see in their eyes, the moment they look at each other, that they are still, definitely, very much in love with each other..

i guess love is the most difficult feeling to describe.. as for me, i believe that if love is true, then it will be brave.. brave enough to face all the trials that it will enounter.. brave, that sometimes it will forget what's right from wrong.. brave enough that it can make you do things you never knew you're capable of doing.. brave enough that it will need no reasons.. and lastly, it will be brave enough to fight for the one you love but it will also be brave to let go and sacrifice your own happiness.. because if you're in love and you only think of your own happiness, then you are not loving, you are just being selfish..

another honeybunch poem

Here we stand together, finally after what seemed like foerever
On the day that we met, we didn't have a clue that it was a moment to remember
Not a week would pass that we didn't make a memory to be treasured
Each time we'd see each other, our happiness was boundless without measure
You did so much for me in such a short span of time
Been telling the heavens above how I'm glad that you are mine
Undying my love is for you, through the ages it will last
Never worry, all the storms that will come our way we will surely pass
Cherish what we have, that I will always do
Honey, I really, really, truly love you

-Jose Carlos Galang Deato
