AVATAR

Who's been to the movies lately??If your not a 'movie person' or 'don't have time' or find movies 'too expensive', Avatar will definitely leave you no regrets! It's so thrilling you won't want to blink, has some romance to make you smile and a pinch of comedy to it as well.And the special effects are totally amazing.Btw-don't worry-no magic, no brutality, no immoral scenes.Here's the official synopsis from movies.msn.com-don't have time to make mine up.

A paraplegic ex-marine finds a new life on the distant planet of Pandora, only to find himself battling humankind alongside the planet's indigenous Na'vi race in this ambitious digital 3D sci-fi epic from Academy Award-winning Titanic director James Cameron. The film, which marks Cameron's first dramatic feature since 1997's Titanic, follows Jake Sully (Sam Worthington), a war veteran who gets called to the depths of space to pick up the job of his slain twin brother for the scientific arm of a megacorporation looking to mine the planet of Pandora for a valued ore. Unfortunately the biggest deposit of the prized substance lies underneath the home of the Na'vi, a ten-foot-tall, blue-skinned native tribe who have been at war with the security arm of the company, lead by Col. Miles Quaritch (Stephen Lang). Because of the planet's hostile atmosphere, humans have genetically grown half-alien/half-human bodies which they can jack their consciousnesses into and explore the world in. Since Jake's brother already had an incredibly expensive Avatar grown for him, he's able to connect with it using the same DNA code and experience first-hand the joys of Pandora while giving the scientific team, led by Grace Augustine (Sigourney Weaver) and Norm Spellman (Joel David Moore), some well-needed protection against the planet's more hostile forces.

On a chance meeting after getting separated from his team, Jake's Avatar is rescued by Neytiri (Zoe Saldana), a Na'vi princess, who brings him into her tribe in order to give the humans a second chance at relating to this new environment. When word gets out of his increasing time with the alien species, Quaritch enlists Jake to do some reconnaissance for the company, as they'd like to persuade the tribe to move their home before taking more drastic measures to harness the treasure hidden below. Yet as Jake becomes one with the tribe and begins to understand the secrets of Pandora, his conscience is torn between his new adopted world and the wheelchair-bound one awaiting him when the psychic connection to his Avatar is broken. Soon battle lines are drawn and Jake needs to decide which side he will fight on when the time comes. T

SO GO WATCH AVATAR NOW!! GO! GO! GO! Tell the guard its my treat-they'll let you in for free!.lol ^_^

Friends are forever

Real friends are really hard to find.I guess it's because once you do-they last forever.Something like how hard pearls or diamonds are so rare but once found are worth lots.I think I'm blessed enough to have some gems in my life-they're just a handful but are just what I need.I might be very outgoing but only consider quite a few "Friends" and the rest maybe acquaintances.Not that being an acquaintance is a bad thing, in fact this is where all friendships begin right?:D What's the difference? Well, you can laugh chat and get along both but the difference lies with what you talk about.Friends talk about everything under the sun,moon and stars! They include each other in their futures, make plans together, find solutions to each others problems and can stay up all night just talking.Off course, friends are your number 1 teasers coz they know so much about you that all it takes is a smile and a wink for you to get them to blush.That brings me to another point-friends need no words.They'd just glance at each other and burst out laughing leaving everyone else wondering.Then they're times when you'd say stuff at the same time, like you were reading each other's minds!How weird is that?Amazingly, it doesn't take much for friendships to develop.They're times you just 'click' with someone, like you've known them for ages and you suddenly become inseparable.Maybe that's what they call 'chemistry'.(Mishu OLA!!) Friendships can form with people of different personalities-one of my friends is very professional, organized, another a little intimidating,serious and demeanor then add me-carefree and outgoing! Why?Because we all share the same goal-To get our 70hrs a month and stay joyful while doing it(short-term)and ultimately make sure we get to paradise where our friendship will be forever*_*

Wonders of Creation

After our three-day assembly me and my galz had a simple one-day getaway.We went to Samal Island.We were only able to go to one falls-Hagimit falls but it surely was worth it!!The blue water,different falls-green everywhere!Everything was just breathtaking.The place is a total paradise!See for yourself^_^



















That was just a glimpse, somethings even a camera can't capture.(FYI-entrance was only 20.00PHP!!)The perfect place for my "Alone Time", if only it were nearer...sigh..Can you just imagine the whole world being this beautiful??Surely something worth any sacrifices we make now.

Well,this is "Samal Island getaway PART 1"-I'm definitely bringing my family here next year. Hmmm...Maybe we'll try the scuba diving and island hopping sometime soon-take a peek at aquatic life or maybe just hangout at the white beaches;)..Wanna come??&_&

Diary of an unborn child

This was published by the Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society in the May 22, 1980 issue of its Awake! magazine and has moved many mothers who planned an abortion to save their unborn babies.A very touching article that will surely bring tears to your eyes.

September 19:

Today my life began. My parents do not know it yet, but it is I already. And I am to be a girl. I shall have blond hair and blue eyes. Just about everything is settled though, even the fact that I shall love flowers.

October 3:

Some say that I am not a real person yet, that only my mother exists. But I am a real person, just as a small crumb of bread is yet truly bread. My mother is. And I am.

October 7:

My mouth is just beginning to open now. Just think, in a year or so I shall be laughing and later talking. I know what my first word will be: MAMA.

October 9:

My heart began to beat today all by itself. From now on it shall gently beat for the rest of my life without ever stopping to rest! And after many years it will tire. It will stop, and then I shall die.

October 17:

I am growing a bit every day. My arms and legs are beginning to take shape. But I have to wait a long time yet before those little legs will raise me to my mother's arms, before those little arms will be able to gather flowers and embrace my father.

October 27:

Tiny fingers are beginning to form on my hands. Funny how small they are! I'll be able to stroke my mother's hair with them.

November 4:

It wasn't until today that the doctor told mom that I am living here under her heart. Oh, how happy she must be! Are you happy, mom?

November 9:

My mom and dad are probably thinking about a name for me. But they don't even know that I am a little girl. I want to be called Kathy. I am getting so big already.

November 24:

My hair is growing. It is smooth and bright and shiny. I wonder what kind of hair mom has?

November 27:

I am just about able to see. It is dark around me. When mom brings me into the World it will be full of sunshine and flowers. But what I want more than anything is to see my mom. How do you look, mom!

December 8:

I wonder if mom hears the whispering of my heart? Some children come into the World a little sick. But my heart is strong and healthy. It beats so evenly: tup-tup, tup-tup. You'll have a healthy little daughter, mom!

December 12:

Today my mother killed me.

Bizarre Love Triangle

A friend of mine has been obsessed with this song lately. She says it relates to my "Sometimes" post somehow. Anyway, this is my interpretation of the emotion behind the song:

Every time I think of you
I feel shot right through with a bolt of blue
It's no problem of mine
But it's a problem I find
Living a life that I can't leave behind

I think: She's trying to get over him but finds herself thinking of him.No matter how much she tries, she can't seem to REALLY forget him. There's nothing wrong with this except that it leaves her living in the past, her fantasy world with him still there.

But there's no sense in telling me
The wisdom of the fool won't set you free
But that's the way that it goes
And it's what nobody knows
well every day my confusion grows

I think: She's probably received loads of advice from friends to 'move on' and get on with her life but it doesn't seem to make a difference-he's still on her mind. She's in a state of confusion, trying to understand why she can't get over him.Does she love him?Is she hurt?Why can't she move on??


Chorus:

Every time I see you falling
I get down on my knees and pray
I'm waiting for that final moment
You say the words that I can't say

I think: The guy keeps her in expectation somehow.Maybe still acting interested, caring etc leaving her thinking, hoping, praying that he would fall for her. With everything she's been through, she'd never have the courage to say how much she cares/loves him- the only chance in anything happening lies with him saying those words.

I feel fine and I feel good
I'm feeling like I never should
Whenever I get this way
I just don't know what to say
Why can't we be ourselves like we were yesterday

I think:Despite all the confusion, hurt and emotion, whenever she sees, talks to him-she still feels good.Inspired.He still has an effect on her somehow.Her,being in a state of denial-can't explain why he still makes her smile.She ends up longing for the days before the 'love triangle' began, when they were close, could talk about anything.She wishes she could turn back time.


I'm not sure what this could mean
I don't think you're what you seem
I do admit to myself
That if I hurt someone else
Then I'll never see just what we're meant to be

I think: Caught between convincing herself that they're not meant to be and smiling whenever they meet, she doesn't know how she really feels anymore.She knows she shouldn't be 'deceived', carried away with his charm but knows that somewhere inside him is something she's learned to love.Sometimes she thinks of entering a relationship to try to see how he feels but can't bring herself to hurt someone else. She fears if she enters a relationship with someone else, he might walk away, give up and all her dreams of being with him would be shattered.They'd never be the 'perfect' couple they could be.She'd loose all her chances with him and would have to watch him slip away into 'her' arms.


There you go dear!!Well??Maybe not the exact interpretation-but close enough^_^

Alone Time

Everyone says I'm so outgoing,make lots of friends so fast and love to have people around me. Well, I can't deny this is true but I bet they don't realize how much 'solo' time I have with myself.I could spend hours and even the whole day anywhere alone!Sunsets by the beach are my favorite but anywhere will do.What do I do?THINK THINK and THINK.I guess that much thinking is called meditation.What do I think about?Basically everything-(sorry can't tell you details though;).I think it's my way of getting to know myself and the world around me. It's during these 'thinking sessions' I got all the ideas for my posts. I've made many personal resolutions during my solo time as well.It's a very fulfilling time to think things over, evaluate problems, see where my life's heading and just make sure I'm on the right course.This is what I'm longing for! If I happen to be in the wrong place when I feel like 'alone time', I simply zone out, don't talk to anybody and become mentally absent. This happens to be a wrong time. It's about time I had some quality time with myself, got so many agendas. Until I find a place to go-it's me and my thoughts to keep me company.
