My Thoughts:

I found this movie through Youtubers and decided it to be pretty interesting through the trailers of it that I saw. But, thanks to the trailers, I am forced to search for clips of its ending to see whether the ending which I desire will come true or not, if not, I will be broken hearted rooting for the person who is not meant to be with the girl.... And so, the ending was what I desired which meant I watched it! Of course hahaha...

So, there's nothing particularly special about this movie, it was just a simple love story with a little drama of teenagers experiencing love for the first time and reciprocating them. I think that this movie tops quite a few other movies I have watched in that, it does not go into a dark tone with the love triangles and everything happened in a sort of "kind" way. It was a smooth ride pretty much. Argh, it's hard to explain this movie when it's just that simple of a story. A little reveal goes a long way in spoiling the story. 

Anyways, I adore the romance in here. It was really cute watching the awkward and fresh interactions of peoples beginning to be in love and dating. The actors and actresses really portrayed well the innocence of youths about love with the stiff and formal confessions. I initially wanted to watch this movie because the setting is in high school so I expected a lot of the youthful style of acting. And they conveyed it pretty well. 

Go on and watch this simple slice of life, love story. Their cute romances will melt your heart and the ending is just so satisfying for my part. So, hope you all enjoy(ed) watching it!
