Awkwardness

I know that I do not have what it takes to be your girl but I just want you to know that I really care about you. I made this post to make you feel that I will always be there for you...

Revolutionary Road

It may sound like a movie about war but it isn't...The revolutionary road is a story of a couple who strive hard in dealing with each other. Frank(Leonardo DiCaprio) and April Wheeler(Kate Winslet) are two unlucky individual who got married and moved into the revolutionary road because Frank impregnated April. Their lives revolves on April's not-so-good acting career and of Frank's working on an agency he doesn't like. They have their own sets of problems and each of them could not relate to each other and they end up always fighting.

Their unhealthy relationship is derive from the fact that they don't have an open communication especially that April is not the kind of person who wanted to talk things out while Frank is too insensitive of his wife's feelings.

They struggle too hard to make their relationship good and they eventually found a way to solve it, to start a new life in Paris. Both are thrilled of moving out and starting a different life away from the suburbs. However, they were unable to move out for April got herself pregnant and Frank do have a promotion on the table. Their lives become more complicated as April would want to abort the child and they got intertwined to a insane man's life that in a way, was able to point out the failures in their lives.

The story ended in a tragic incident wherein April tried to do an abortion by herself and she lost too much blood and had a lot of complications that resulted in her death. Frank and his children moved out of Revolutionary Road and settled in the city....

I almost cried watching the movie especially on the part wherein they were fighting...There is no wonder why Kate Winslet won an award in the Golden Globes for she was able to relay her character to those who watch it.

It is wonderful movie and everybody should watch especially to thoe couples whose relationship is on the rock. One would get a lot of lessons from this movie...a

P.S... Leonardo looks so damn hot in this movie...

from a concern citizen's view...

The future of one nation lies in the hands of the upcoming generations. This is maybe considered as a cliché but we have to accept that sooner or later, the youth will have to grow and take their place in the society. They are expected to be fruitful as what the adults are doing in order to ensure the stability of their nation. Economic growth will not be possible without the man power and the sprung of new ideas that can be derive from the youth today, which will soon become future leaders of the coming generations. With this, educating them with the right knowledge and skills does not have just to take place in the four corners of the classrooms but they must have a proper understanding of the present situation. One should be able to pinpoints the weaknesses and strengths that they see in the society so that they may weigh whether it is time for a change. The young and perspective leaders must also learn to deviate from the tradition leaders that they may have right now, corrupt and self-centered, for one nation needs a different perspective from a fully-aware individuals of the nation’s current situation.

I have been in the dark in viewing the current political situation of my country. It is a shame that we are considered one of the most corrupt countries of the world. A lot of money was dispersed to the politicians for their future works that should benefit the country but it seems that this money is being used on their own personal interest. They generate funds to make themselves richer and to sustain their vices; gambling, women, etc.
I also believe that some politicians are behind the big syndicates on drugs, jueteng(gambling), kidnapping and white slavery for they could not operate that easily if there were no one who have the power supporting them. And our very own example of that is the controversial Alabang Boys and the on-going operations of jueteng around the country.
It is very hard for me to live in this place wherein injustices are omnipresent and yet, nobody can stop and fight it because they lack the power to do so. Gun, goons and gold are the indispensable tool that these people used to inflict fear to those who try to stop them. With that, we can never hope for justice to prevail in this country especially that we do not have good governance given the kind of president that we have. I am not anti-government activist or whatever you call it, but I do believe that we have suffered too much and it is the right time for change. My means are not that of what you can see rallying on the streets but that does not mean that I am just too passive of the current situation. Sometimes, it is good to act indiscreet so that one could avoid being killed and be part of the remnants of extra-judicial killings that is remain unsolved even up to this moment (ANOTHER example of the prevalent injustices coming from the government).

The battle against injustices has long been started and it is only up to us to make a move, to launch the greatest and most powerful tool that will surely defeat injustices and that is CHANGE.

Can't get enough of Robert Patinson...

As a fanatic of Robert Pattinson, which started from his appearance on the Harry Potter movie 4 down to the twilight movie, I always take time to read and browse the net for news about him for he do have a great talent especially in his new flick( a sort of mini-indie or whatever), How to Be. He played the character of Art, a struggling musician who got dumped by his girlfriend and decided to move back with his “not-so-loving-and-caring parents”. The movie is really funny especially on the part that he got “hooked” on a particular book to help him out of his problem especially on dealing with his neglectful parents that he even invited the author of such book to live with him(for the meantime) and with his parents.This movie is about Art trying to make his life normal in any possible means and his journey towards friendship and life.

And if you are a certified Robert Pattinson fanatic, better watch this out… He’s really good and hilarious…

Naruto's worst heartbreak...

Hinata confesses her love for Naruto in a very odd circumstances, Naruto is on the verge of concealing defeat on Pain. She told Naruto how he was able to change Hinata and how she struggles to protect and be with him. She knows that she might die on interfering Pain’s actions but she wanted to protect Naruto in any means even if she had to sacrifice her life. The manga series ended when she was trying to attack Pain but he is just too powerful for her (and she could probably be dead). With such happenings, Naruto had experience and felt the worst anger that he could that in a matter of seconds, he was able to release a sixth-tailed beast…

The outcome of such tragedy is not yet known..but my heart aches for Naruto’s loss as well as for Hinata. Throughout the series, I was hoping that the two of them would have a chance to be together..but it seems that it would never be possible..And I am hoping that Pain will die..This series is hurting me too much..(first, death of Jiraiya, second: death of Kakashi and now..Hinata..)..

I really feel so bad about it..

And here is the page that contains Hinata’s confession…(from onemanga)

Slumdog Millionaire

Last Night, my friends and I decided to watch “Slumdog millionaire” for we are a bit curious about it especially that it garnered 8 awards on OSCARS. The story is very captivating and moving for it is a tale of true love, brotherhood and survival. The story revolves around a young man named JAmal, who was abducted by the police for they believe that he cheated on the game show “Who wants to be a millionaire” for he only lives in the slum. He is one question away on winning the 20,000,000 rupees when he was brutally questioned by the police. He then tell the police the reason why he was able to answered all the question by telling them his story and the significance of his answers to his life.

He recounted those times wherein he and his brother, Salim, had to strive hard because they got orphaned and there were no one they could turn into. They were introduced to the world of big syndicates that tested their bond as a brother. They met a young girl named Latika that become very significant in Jamal’s life. Because of her, the two brothers got themselves into a lot of troubles and parted ways with Jamal’s anger for his brother. But their lives intertwined again and become more complicated as Jamal’s brother worked for a big and dangerous man, a sort of Mafia, who turned out to be the lover of Latika.

Jamal tried to take her away from that man but they were separated for that man had great money and power while he has none. He then decided to join the game show for he knows that it is Latika’s favorite and that she will be watching the entire show. The police was, in a way, moved by his story and he was sent back to the game show to answer the last question. He doesn’t have to be the winner of the money for he is very happy to know that Latika is safe and sound. though in the end, his brother had died but at least he got the redemption that he need and is the key towards his brother’s ultimate happiness, Latika.

The film is worth watching and it was directed by Danny Boyle and Loveleen Tandan and was adapted from Vikas Swarup’s nov
