Currently Playing The Song : Ayumi Hamasaki - Audience

Thoughts And Blog :
Blogging again. Just got back from supper at Ang Mo Kio Macdonalds (24 Hours Drive Thru') after two good hours at Seletar Reservoir.

Just before we left, we saw an accident right before us at the entrance to the restaurant car park; Mercedes taxi reversing right into a Honda Civic behind it, because it's IU wasn't read properly. LOL. Daryl and I simply shrugged and went home.

Went to watch 'My Rainy Days' earlier with Bibi at The Cathay.

The more appropriate one.


The Not-For-Kids movie poster...


I was surprised to find the nude Nozomi Sasaki promotional poster for the movie in The Cathay lifts, instead of the first poster, the "usually censored" and "suitable for all ages" type of approved movie poster MDA would grant.

The movie is about RIO (Nozomi Sasaki), a 17 year old girl living a life of prostitution after having gone through the most painful experience of her life; living the life of a rape victim. She is the leader of a prostitution ring, made up of acquaintances who blackmails adults into bedding with a minor.

Living the life of deception and luxury, until she met KOUKI (Tanihara Shousuke), a university professor in the History Department. She falls in a deep illicit relationship, forming the most controversial relationship between a couple; a teacher-student love.

Little did she know, her life will change forever.

A touching story that will move the hearts of young adults and teenagers, this movie is a typical melodrama of a troubled student's life in Japan involving a puppy love romance with an adult.

Weighing this against 'Ima Ai Ni Yukimasu' (I'm Coming To Be With You), this show is weaker in that sense, failing to fully tug at my heart's strings.

For Nozomi Sasaki, it was pretty good acting on her part, coming from a model background.

Lest the soapy scenes and the err... I'll leave it to you to decipher your own take by watching it.

3/5 stars.
