love waits

just watched the leap years with mel (he's out today!) it was really beautiful, both in story and in scene. i love the artistry of some of the shots, and i REALLY love watching wong li lin. i might not agree with all her philosophies on life, but i do admire her acting and her beauty.

it was really touching, and i had tears in my eyes at quite a few points in the film. poignant - that's the word.

for me, the main message of the film was that "true love is worth waiting for". i could really identify with some of the feelings she went through, in longing to be loved, and yet not giving in to being attached for the sake of being attached, and the struggle of that. of course i had it much easier than her character in the film =b

last night was a tough night work-wise for me, so enjoying this romantic love story was a great way to end this day of recovery. =)
