Break the rules

He is a person who uses vulgar word like it's a greeting.

He is a person who has thoughts like imaginative 5 year old.

People who reads would have know him.

Well, people who reads Chinese.

He has written dozens of book, he directed 2 movies.

He is none other than Giddens Ko，九把刀.

It is actually kind of uncomfortable to type in English since he is a Chinese author, however, for the seek for my grade, I will try my best to type in English.

I came across this author from his latest hit movie, "You're the apple of my eye".

It's actually his own love story when he was still a hot-blooded teenager. 

It could have ended up like those typical love novel that you could pick on shelf, read a few pages, and guessed it ending. 

But no.

Gidden is no joke.

It's true that love story has only two endings, it's either they are together, or they are not.

But what makes a good love story is none other than the journey.

Gidden's journey of Love maybe a bit plain in layman's term, however he has captivated the reader with his playful use of words, mind dialogues, and kuso characters. 

But this is not my favourite book from him 

My favourite book(s) is this pathetic love story.

A story between a lover who aren't fated to be together, ending up with them separated by death.

If you think that this is your typical "It's the end" story, you're terribly wrong.

The story doesn't end when the male lead dies, instead, that's when the story starts.

I shall not spoil the story line by telling you the content, but this is the story that brought me to tears.

NO JOKE, TO TEARS.

Gidden is not a man who's full of jokes and vulgarities, there's this sensitive and emotional side of him too.

He carefully written out the internal struggles of the ill-fated lovers.

He could make you notice the little things in life that you could not notice.

Before I entered NAFA, I was in MI studying H2 Chinese.

It's a subject that almost everyone dreaded, but I loved it.

I loved that Chinese, with just a few words, could express a way deeper message.

I was aspired to be a writer, a writer like Gidden, one who's quirky,  break the rules of traditional writing. 

Even though I'm no longer studying Chinese, however this will not stop my passion for Chinese. 

I will (try to) continue write posts that everyone can relate to ;)

“什么是恋爱？就是相恋的两人都有相同的美好回忆。回忆存在于两人不必言传的老地方， 琅琅上口的电影对白，一首老歌，一份收悉的菜单。

站在老地方，你会被发黄的空气包围，你的胸口沉闷，透不过气。

听到电影对白，你会回到那个初次约会的电影院，你不会记得电影好不好看，但你永远记得身边女孩的发香。

逛街时听到曾经的老歌，你会在试衣间里，抹去不知道从哪里生出来的眼泪。

一份看过百次的菜单，会带领你看见年轻的自己，正搂着年轻时的老伴，一年又一年，她陪你度过每一个纪念日，度过每一条皱纹。”
