What a nerve-racking month for me, October. I never been this stressed out in my life, like ever. But I've been thankful because I never thought that I'm this stronger before.. I know I'm strong but sometimes I felt weak. God tested me so much this month and I'm very grateful to Him because I know now exactly I'm capable of.

I almost didn't pass my one last class before I graduate college... and oh research when will I be free of you? Rejection really does hurt even without words and I think it is worse.

PLOT: Jacob and Anna are college students in Los Angeles who become a couple. Anna is a British exchange student who, having fallen in love with Jacob, a design student, spends the summer with him, overstaying her student visa after it had expired on graduation. She returns home to London for a family obligation. When she flies back to Los Angeles as a tourist, she is detained, denied entry, and sent back to England by Los Angeles airport immigration officials, throwing the couple into an awkward and strained long-distance relationship.

Anna is banned from entering the United States for this prior violation of having overstayed her original visa. The deep love of the couple is strained by the distance and frustration of not being able to see each other except when Jacob can make time away from his successful design business in Los Angeles to visit Anna in England. Anna's family in England hires an immigration lawyer to try to get the ban lifted and allow Anna to return to Jacob in the United States. Anna's father suggests that marrying may help to get the ban lifted. Upon Jacob's return to the US, and after an undisclosed time, he begins a relationship with a work colleague (Jennifer Lawrence). Anna continues to struggle with her feelings for Jacob and eventually phones him up suggesting that they should marry, that no other relationships that they experience are like the one they have together.

Jacob returns to the UK and marries Anna in a small court ceremony with her parents as witnesses. They are told to wait 6 months before appealing the ban on Anna's visa. Jacob returns to the UK after 6 months for the appeal, which is unsuccessful and their relationship is compromised. They again begin relationships with other people after a fight about it, but Anna and Jacob still feel a profound connection with each other. Anna gets promoted at her work to a position that she is really happy about. Anna's boyfriend at the time, Simon, proposes to her in front of her parents.

Shortly after, Anna finds out from her lawyer that her ban from the United States has been lifted. She gives up her job, her current boyfriend and her apartment and returns to Los Angeles to Jacob. Jacob greets Anna at the airport with flowers, but their reunion is strained and awkward because of all the ups and downs of their relationship.

Reunited and without any legal impediments to being together, Anna and Jacob are shown to be starting a life together. The film closes with the two in the shower reminiscing about their initial courtship. The future of Jacob and Anna's relationship is unclear.

MY REVIEW: So I need to make a post about this movie. It gives me pure glimpse of what reality can give us and how can be this hard at the same time... real.

THIS MOVIE IS A MASTERPIECE.

Long distance relationship is never easy for any one. It takes a lot of patience, understanding and trust for the both parties. It's exhausting to think if each other is alright, It seems it never goes away..

I love the ending, it's beyond unnerving how raw and true it is. It's true that our future is unpredictable and complicated.

Anton Yechin and Felicity Jones gives so much justice with the characters. They have mysterious chemistry. I like it.

How far can you go for love?

I hate this feeling. Trying to prove to everyone that you're great, cool, knows everything and you deserve to be friends with them so that you don't feel left out. I hate pretending that it's okay. I want to be with people who will accept me for who I am not because I'm this or that, I want to be with people who don't care.

And oh Happy birthday to my nephew, Gab! ♥

You know that feeling when you are so sad but you don't know why? THAT. I really hate feeling like this. I really feeling like I'm so useless, disappointed, don't-know-what-to-do feelings. I'm getting sick of this. i just want to end this summer and be busy again for the whole year,. It just sucks big time.

12.04.29 White Rock Waterpark and Beach Hotel-- It gonna be the highlight of my summer, definitely. To begin with, I had to woke up at 2 AM because we'll be leaving at 3 AM but as usual, filipno time- we leave at 3:30 AM. At least we arrive there 6 AM! So early! I can't imagine how beautiful Subic, Zambales is! I love everything about this place especially the beach and seasides! The scenery is so perfect that I don't want to leave. It so sad thaw we don't have time to stay at the hotel. It's been a long time since I gone to a beach and well, it's too unfamiliar now. Oh, I hate the salty and water, it made my eyes hurts i few time but i still love that beach! I love the waves in the pool! My favorite part, my first time to do the Kayaking. I almost died because of heart attack because of my nephew going too far from the deep part of the beach. Seriously, I don't know how to swim eventhough I take some lessons from my PE 4 (I'm so sorry to my Professor huhu) So this is it folks! I never expected I'm going anywhere this summer (spell booring!) but thanks to my cousins for being so adventure and let me joined them! Continue to be beautiful, summer! :)
