based on Nicholas Sparks's novel |
*Do you want a cookie?
-What?
*A cookie. Like an Oreo. Do you want one?
-No.
*How can you not want a cookie?
-I just don't.
*Okay, fine, let's say you did want a cookie. Let's say you were dying for a cookie, and there were cookies in the cupboard. What would you do?
-I'd eat a cookie?
*Exactly. That's all I'm saying.
-What are you saying?
*That if people want cookies, they should get a cookie. It's what people do.
-Let me guess. Dad won't let you have a cookie?
*No. Even though I'm practically starving to death, he won't even consider it. He says I have to have a sandwich first.
-And you don't think that's fair.
*You just said you'd get a cookie if you wanted one. So why can't I? I'm not a little kid. I can make my own decisions.
-Hmm. I can see why this bothers you so much.
*It's not fair. If he wants a cookie, he can have one. If you want a cookie, you can have one. But if I want a cookie, the rules don't count. Like you said, it's not fair.
-So what are you going to do?
*I'm going to eat a sandwich. Because I have to. Because the world isn't fair to ten-year-olds.

ReplyDelete@iya_khin: i've watched Dear John too! pero parang andaming hindi nabigyan ng emphasis sa movie compared sa book. hehe. i've read the 1st chapter lang. hehehe :D

Sparks has really good novels, some movies were translated well in the big screen, there were disappointments as well. the notebook was one of the best translations to the big screen while message in a bottle (film) was a big disappointment
ReplyDeleteYeah! Sometimes, there are important scenes from the book that are not given emphasis on movies!
DeleteI haven't seen the movie or read the booked but the scene you described would be touching. It would also be funny if cookie monster was the 10 year old. Just kidding.
ReplyDeleteThat scene up there wasn't on the movie, or if it was, I didn't even notice it! That's a disappointment. *wew*
DeleteThis is a nice movie. :D
ReplyDeleteI love Nicholas Sparks. Books and movies!!
ReplyDeleteOne of the authors who inspired me most.
ReplyDeletethis looks interesting, sadly i never read or watched it but reading this it seems like it possesses a good nostalgic feel into it when we were 10
ReplyDeleteThis post is good enough. It's been a while since I've read a decent book.
ReplyDeleteHmmmm.. Sounds interesting. Well, hindi kasi ako that much of a fan of reading books, better watch it na lang. Haha. :)
ReplyDeleteI haven't watched this movie yet but I look forward to get a DVD copy of it. ^_^
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen this movie but I'm interested. Not in the mood to watch, I guess. :)
