...a fairytale life.

I love happily ever afters. *kwazy berry sighing dreamily*

I've just watched Enchanted. And I love it. Coz I simply like to live in a make believe world. Come on, who doesn't?

Life in fairy tales are so simple. Things are black or white, no shades of grey. It's right or wrong, no middle point. You're either the hero (heroine) or the villain... err or their sidekicks. Good always triumph over evil.

You can burst out in a song anytime... la, la, la, la, la.... just to express your feelings. No one is gonna look at you weirdly. In fact, everyone will join in. They know the words to your song, able to sing in harmony, and dance in perfect choreography. Animals can talk to you. You can talk to animals. Best of all, animals help you clean your house. What can beat that?

Last but not least, the princess waits for the prince charming to save her. They'll marry in a beautiful wedding, with sunshine and rainbows, and live happily ever after. The end.

Fullstop.

No what happens after that. Nothing about the work you need to do to survive. Zilch about how you need to work in a relationship to sustain the marriage. Coz everything will be perfect from then on.

I've been dreaming of a true love's kiss
And a prince, I'm hoping, comes with this
That's what brings ever-aftering so happy
That's the reason we need lips so much
For lips are the only things that touch
So to spend a life of endless bliss
Just find who you love through true love's kiss

I walked out at the end of the show smiling. It was a pleasant show - although a fairy tale, but has a good twist to it. And I just love PIP.

I don't know how steven agreed to watch this with me - cos i totally believe this is a chick-flick kind of movie.
