Stumbled onto this trailer on a book when a student emailed me a chain-mail =)

Subject: FW: A Sad Singapore Junior College Love Story!

Hi,
I just came across this very touching local love story! Joanna is a 17 years old student in National Junior College. Like any other Singaporeans, she lives in a HDB flat and eats at coffeeshop. But she believes that she has a curse: She believes that whatever negative things that she said will come true.

Jacky, a classmate of Joanna, believes that Joanna is not suffering from any curse. He believes that Joanna is just suffering from some mental illness. When their paths crossed, a touching love story began.

Read their bittersweet love story at http://www.goodybooks.com/ibelieveyou.htm ! Over ten thousand readers in Singapore had read their story: now it¡¯s your >turn!>>You can watch the video trailer of the story at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wIDRtEOLWiU

What a CREATIVE way to sell a book! Basically, you can go to the website http://www.goodybooks.com/ibelieveyou.htm to read Chapter 1 to 17. Then if you want to know the ending, you pay money to get the last 3 chapters.

Btw, I personally find this trailer quite TOUCHING.



But what amazes me that it was done only with simple pictures, a few captions and nice music. Simple and yet touching.


Try switching off your comp sound and watch the U-tube video. Clearly, you can see that the music does make a big difference! Make you enter into the mood of the story. That shows the power of music and its impact it can have on us.

As for the story, I think it should be quite full of LOVE. But I do not have the time to read through all the chapters. Can someone please tell me the ending =) Save me time and money!

Of cos, this story may make some of us wish that we can also experience this kind of pure and eternal love. Well we need not get a major illness to have it =) We must be realistic that real love is not so airy-fairy. We need to work hard in growing in love. And what better way to start than to start loving the loved ones in our lives : our parents, teachers, friends!

The best part of the whole story that the 2 lovers are from NJC. I am from NJC too!
