i woke up today feeling very exhausted so i decided to be on sick leave. i am here in my room, watching some movies while resting. I just finished watching Pocahontas movies (I and II) since I already started the first one earlier this week, and was only too tired to finish it that time. My verdict? I can't remember that Pocahontas had lots of kissing scene lol. Normally, the main characters of disney movies would only share one for the entire story. It was years ago when I first watched this, and I remember only half of it but i know that in the first movie they did not end up together. And really, Captain John Smith is so handsome! I even find myself feeling kilig when he said this line: "I'd rather die tomorrow than live a hundred years without knowing you." *faints* haha!I was definitely surprise with the love story of this two. Major whirlwind romance :)

After falling in love with John Smith's character in the first movie, I was first irritated with the next male character they introduced in Pocahontas II. The first time I saw him (he's handsome as well), I knew that eventually Pocahontas will be torn between these two guys. And I was right. But I never expected that she will eventually choose the John Rolfe! Well, he's also fine and sweet but I am not used to cartoons having story like this. But at least they are close to reality. That one can always have a change of heart no matter how strong they feel for someone before. I'll never forget how someone can say "You're crazy" that is as sweet as saying "I love you" ever (John Rolfe got that one).

Anyway, i'm sorry for being this affected, having to blog these crazy stuff. I was just surprised with the movie and I don't know if it is because Valentine's Day is 3 days away, but after watching, I felt that I wanted to fall in love. Real one this time. So where's my John Smith (or John Rolfe)? Hindi pwedeng si Pocahontas lang ang mahaba ang hair!*wink*

PS: just wanted to post the lyrics of the ending song in movie I:

Smith:

If I never knew you
If I never felt this love
I would have no inkling of
How precious life can be
And if I never held you
I would never have a clue
How at last I'd find in you
The missing part of me
In this world so full of fear
Full of rage and lies
I can see the truth so clear
In your eyes
So dry your eyes
And I'm so grateful to you
I'd have lived my whole life through
Lost forever
If I never knew you

Pocahontas:
If I never knew you
I'd be safe but half as real
Never knowing I could feel
A love so strong and true
I'm so grateful to you
I'd have lived my whole life through
Lost forever
If I never knew you

Smith:
I thought our love would be so beautiful

Pocahontas:
Somehow we made the whole world bright

Both:
I never knew that fear and hate could be so strong
All they'd leave us where these whispers in the night
But still my heart is singing
We were right

Pocahontas:
If I never knew you
If I never knew this love
I would have no inkling of
How precious life can be

Smith:
There's no moment I regret
Since the moment that we met
If our time has gone too fast
I've lived at last...

Both:
I thought our love would be so beautiful
Somehow we'd make the whole world bright

Pocahontas:
I thought our love would be so beautiful
We'd turn the darkness into light

Both:
And still my heart is singing
We were right

Smith:
We were right
And If I never knew you
I'd have lived my whole life through

Pocahontas:
Empty as the sky

Both:
Never knowing why
Lost forever
If I never knew you
