camera.

Just finished watching


Memoirs of a Teenage Amnesiac.

I quite liked it. It's about this girl who loses her memory of the past four years. And so since it's a love story the main focus is about her trying to remember who she loves. Pretty predictable but it's easy to watch and really sweet at some points.

You know you've been watching too many Japanese shows when you recognise the three main characters from other plaes. Kenichi Matsuyama being L from Death Note. Maki Horikita is Chisato from Atashinchi no Danshi. And finally Yuya Tegoshi is from the boygroup NEWS. Haha. But I'm going off track.

The movie shows how since the main character forgot the past four years, it is up to the people around her to remind her of who she is. What she used to like, who she used to like and all that. But if this happened in real life, there would be almost no need to take the words of others. Maybe not applicable to everyone. But if let's say I lost my memory, all I'd have to do is read by blog. Or go through Facebook a little.

And then tadahhh! The past is all so nicely documented for me. 

What would we do without the Internet =).

I read the book superfast just to watch this movie! Then I didn't even watch it to the end because I was frustrated with their snippets of engrish '-.- I thought it made the movie very awkward

Haha. Is the book good??

I watched it just cause Kenichi Matsuyama was in it =P. Yeah, the bits of english made it weird. But expected since it's an American director.
