Like Crazy

Recently I watched a movie that made me think a lot. Being a student who is dating girl from other country, it was more meaningful movie to watch and I wanted to share with you.
To Jacob, first impression of Anna was weird but adorable girl who is also very smart. After meeting in the class, Jacob fall in love with Anna all of sudden and decided to get to know her better.
After Jacob asked Anna to give him chance to know her better, Anna bring him to her house and talk with him all night. Jacob, after reading poem of Anna fall in love with Anna more and Anna, after knowing Jacob little more, start to think that Jacob is nice guy.
After having lots of date, spending lots of time with each other, These young lovers are forced to be separated because Anna's visa got expired. They both tried to fix this problem and decided to get married in order to give Anna a green card but it was not that simple. It took her while to get green card because they need to check if she is actually getting married with her and while that happen, Anna had to go back to UK.
At first,long distance relationship seems not bad. They talked with each other all the time, they still support each other. But as time goes by, they both realized how hard it is to maintain the long distance relationship. Being 20s they both need someone to rely on and both of them realized that they don't love each other as much as they used to.
While this three month, both of them cheat on each other mentally and physically. They felt guilty about it so they decided not to talk about it but deep inside there mind, they have small doubt on there relationship.
Finally that painful time got passed and Anna finally got her visa to go back to US. They meet each other, hug and look at each other but they look each other not the same way as they used to.
This is probably not a typical romantic movie that lots of people enjoy to watch. However, this was movie made me think lots about relationship itself. Importance of being honest, Importance of actually spending time with each other are greater than people think. When they first fall in love, they assume there love is going to last forever. However without putting effort on it, it is impossible to keep it. 

I strongly recommend this movie to people who currently in long distance relationship or who getting tired of there relationship. Good movie to watch and just think about it when you have lots of thing in your mind.

Review of Babolat Pure drive tour



Today, I am going to talk about the Babolat Pure drive tour


Specs:

100 sq in head size
315 unstrung
Strung weight app. 350
Stiffness: 70
16 X 19 String pattern

This racket replaces the Pure drive Roddick, which I used to use before this racket.

I really like this racket, because it fits my game and style.

For couple of years, I have tried multiple rackets, but I still can't find a racket that fits my game like this. 

 I am an aggressive baseliner with a big serve who doesn't enjoy moving up to the net

With this racket, I can be more aggressive and take control of my opponent.

I can hit a huge first serve, and I can add a lot of spin to my second serve.

For ground strokes, I can hit huge balls with controls. I am able to do this because of the power and the spin that I can get from this racket. 

Without the topspin from this racket, I will definitely hit the ball out.

For volleys, I could finish the point, but I would not volley often, because of the lack of feel. I could not control my volley finely, but it did not effect me anyways because I'm a baseliner.

Very strong on returns. The racket was very solid even when I was returning strong serve.

The only downside for this racket is the feel and comfort. To get used to the feel, had to use half multfilament/ half poly when I started using this racket

Thanks for reading this post, and I hope that you enjoyed reading this.
