` Bride Wars


Last night, i went to see the above movie, 'bride wars'. It is rated probably PG, with not many swear words, not much sex, pretty much a movie that even a 5 year old could watch.

To be honest, i thought it would be one of those chic flicks, even though i love chic flicks but sometimes well ALL THE TIME they are so predictable.... but this one, was yes predictable but had a moral to the story at the end.. throughout the movie i laughed, and i even had a bit of a tear come to my eye at the end.... which is bizzare, cos its very hard for me to cry in a movie.

A side note, i have watched 3 movies wit YY, and in each movie, she has cried in every single one of them.... hahahahha (next time i'll provide a box of tissues k)

Bascially the movie is about 2 best friends who have known each other for like 20 years (since child hood) and their dream is to get married in June at the Plaza. they are all grown up now of course, one is a lawyer, one is a school teacher. They both happen to get engaged around the same time, practically the same day?! and decide they both want june weddings in the plaza... they then book thier june weddings and the wedding planners receptionist accidentally makes it on the same day....... thats when all hell breaks loose and the 2 best frends become worst enemies, they fight and they do all sorts of evil stuff to each other so that the other wouldn't be able to have a happy wedding. IE: sending heaps of chocolate to make one fat, tanning in a tanning salon turned into a brightttt orange, etc.... anyway i guess everyone can guess the ending so i'll not even bother to say it.

But what i learnt from this movie, is not about the special bond between husband and wife, but it's also discovering yourself and who you are as a couple with your other half. sometimes we may have been dating that someone for a long time, and fell in love wit them 10 years ago, but things change, things and people evolve, you want different tings, your values, thoughts, and way of doing life is different, your no longer matching. romance dies.

life is not all just about boyfriends and husbands. i think we as girls, also long for that best friend to share everything with, to whine, to complain, and to share good and bad news, life would not be complete if we only had our bf's and/or husbands... i think we would be really bored. i think its very important to have close friends / best friends.

i always ask my self do i have those bestest frends that i could just ring up and cry to, laugh to and share all my crap with. - and yes i do, i have a few to choose from! haha, so i am really honoured and happy to have the special bond of friendship wit each and every one of them.
I love my close friends alot, no matter where they may be in this world, they are always there to talk wit me, cry wit me, listen to me, be emo with me and just be there. for that im ever grateful and thankful to have them in my life.

getting married without any best friend would be unseen, unheard of, unsightly

and plain disgusting....
