Thoughts on #ThatThingCalledTadhana

Hey guys. I'm actually sharing with you a thought-book-entry I wrote last February 9, 2015. The italicized statements are just added NOW; they aren't in the original thought-book-entry. I will also be omitting some parts of the entry, for they may be too personal and not meant for sharing.

So last Saturday, I saw "That Thing Called Tadhana" being shown at Puregold on my way home. I wasn't interested to watch it at all [because (a) what I was looking forward to is "Crazy Beautiful You" and (b) I don't find the Angelica-JM tandem attractive at first]. But then, thanks to the gift of curiosity that pushed me to go to the cinemas.

Sobrang puno ang movie ng hugot lines from Mace [Angelica Panganiban] at Anthony [JM de Guzman]. How I wish a stranger comes in to my life willing to carry all the excess baggage that I have. ... Natutunan ko ang mga ff:
1. Wala sa longevity / length ng relationship ang makapagsasabi kung mahal ka ng isang tao; anytime, kayang kaya niyang sabihing, "hindi na kita mahal."
2. Magtira para sa sarili. 'Wag ibigay ang lahat. [Pero dati, naisip ko rin na, pwede ibigay ang lahat para wala kang ire-regret sa future na 'di mo nagawa para sana ma-sustain yung relationship.]
3. Moving on comes from within [wow, this matched what Ms. Yo said a while ago about moving on!]. Kailangan may initiative ka--you'll stop stalking him / her or telling things / refreshing the past [about him / her].
4. Mahirap pero kayang mag-move on--sabi nga ni Anthony, ang mahalaga, naka-move on; wala ng dahi-dahilan pa.
5. Handa kang talikuran lahat pero siya, handa bang magsakripisyo? Ginive up ni Mace ang trabaho niya just to be able to go to Rome, umutang pa nga siya. Pero 'yung boyfriend niyang kamukha daw ni Lloydie (HAHA!), ayaw i-give up 'yung trabaho [pang future naman daw kasi nila].

With watching this, meron rin akong konting realizations:
1. INDIE FILMS are worth watching. Sobrang ganda ng cinematography at sobrang bold and blunt. Stories are on ground talaga.
2. ROM-COM is <3. Puro comedy dati, pero dang, sayang tumawa't makilig noh!
3. Now a fan of Antoinette Jadaone! The next big thing. -- Beauty in a Bottle; English Only, Please; That Thing Called Tadhana

Lemme share some hugot lines from #Tadhana.

There are all kinds of love in this world but never the same love twice.

 Kaya tayo iniiwan ng mga taong mahal natin dahil may dadating na bago,na ipapa-realize sa'tin 'yung mga kamalian natin.

...nakakita ako ng another #hugotline from That Thing Called Tadhana.

May magbabalik sa'yong pagmamahal. Not necessarily sa taong pinagbigyan mo pero sigurado ako, maibabalik 'yan sa'yo.

Akala ko magaling ako. 'Yun pala marunong lang.
