August Rush~



A movie recommended by my friends. This story is about how two strangers found love at first sight and had a child right after the night. The kid was then sent to an orphanage without the knowledge of his parents. After 11 years, the kid decides to look for his parents. He's a gifted child in. He's able to listen to musics that cannot be heard by an ordinary person.


~the first night~

But as the kid reaches New York city, he meets this man who abuses him. Then, he went wondering and entered an astonishing musical school. He creates his own rhapsody, August's rhapsody, although in his minor age. He kept believing that as long he keeps playing, one day his parents will hear him.

A Walk To Remember~

Another Bee-you-ti-fulll story I must say. Based on a true story I was told by a friend. This story it's about a bad ass kid that found a true meaning to his life. He finally got together with a girl that has been always next to him. But their is a twist in this story rite in da middle. Well, if you wanna noe, do watch the movie.. hoho. This is a really touching story. If all the man in this world was like the main character, womens in this world will live so much happier. Even near the end of the show I felt water near at the edge of my eyes.

Valentines Day~

Act been wanting to post this post for quite awhile but dint have enough of ideas. Anyway, do you guys know the history of valentines day? neither do I, but here is wat I came across.... One legend contends that Valentine was a priest who served during the third century in Rome. When Emperor Claudius II decided that single men made better soldiers than those with wives and families, he outlawed marriage for young men — his crop of potential soldiers. Valentine, realizing the injustice of the decree, defied Claudius and continued to perform marriages for young lovers in secret. When Valentine's actions were discovered, Claudius ordered that he be put to death. According to one legend, Valentine actually sent the first 'valentine' greeting himself. While in prison, it is believed that Valentine fell in love with a young girl — who may have been his jailor's daughter — who visited him during his confinement. Before his death, it is alleged that he wrote her a letter, which he signed 'From your Valentine,' an expression that is still in use today. Although the truth behind the Valentine legends is murky, the stories certainly emphasize his appeal as a sympathetic, heroic, and, most importantly, romantic figure. It's no surprise that by the Middle Ages, Valentine was one of the most popular saints in England and France.While some believe that Valentine's Day is celebrated in the middle of February to commemorate the anniversary of Valentine's death or burial — which probably occurred around 270 A.D — others claim that the Christian church may have decided to celebrate Valentine's feast day in the middle of February in an effort to 'christianize' celebrations of the pagan Lupercalia festival. In ancient Rome, February was the official beginning of spring and was considered a time for purification. Houses were ritually cleansed by sweeping them out and then sprinkling salt and a type of wheat called spelt throughout their interiors. Lupercalia, which began at the ides of February, February 15, was a fertility festival dedicated to Faunus, the Roman god of agriculture, as well as to the Roman founders Romulus and Remus.




~Common type of flower on Valentines~

So many legends. Which one to believe in? then I heard of white valentines , yellow valentines and many more for EACH MONTH?!?! hahaha... If anyone knows please tell me bout it.

Story Time | #1

All of a sudden I had this idea of writing stories. Actually i love writing stories and my 1119 A1 is thanks to story writing (XP self praise...). Wellllll..... story writing also enables one to express their creative side. The stories are completely fictional and so are the characters. Its just random thoughts I get. So whenever I get an idea I'd write it down for u guys wokay? Last but not least... do comment and give your opinions in any form. XD. Lets go~

His eyes opened gradually. He don't really understand what he is seeing. It wasn't clear but he could see a rough image of a man's back in white clothes and a few more people. But he's eyes were heavy. He heard a lady's voice " he's awake. Please allow the doctor to do some checks." He's mind couldn't stop thinking where and why is he there. Light flashes he's eyes. "He seems to be fine for the mean time," said the doctor. Then Nate's parents and friends sat around him. Nate's mother, Samantha was so worried yet relieved to see her son awake. "Dude, how are you? you fainted when you were driving. Do you remember anything?" After listening to those words, Nate could recall bits and pieces of wat happened.

Nate's parents left the room so that the youngsters could chat. "You got me very worried back there man." said Brendan, "luckily I was following you man" he continued, "Scared the crap out of me seeing u bang the curb all of a sudden" he explained." "Do you know why you fainted all of a sudden?" asked Veronica. "I dunno," said Nate but he knew wat was wrong with him. "Didnt the doc say anything?" Brendan ask, "your parents told that you were just exhausted" Veronica answered. "we'll be leaving now, take care man." Brendan said, "call us if you need us" added Veronica. "hey guys, did you tell Stephie?"

"Yes, they did" said Stephie. She just arrived rushing from her workplace. "we gotta go guys, see ya" said Brendan leaving Stephie and Nate in the room. "Is there something you wanna tell me?" asked Stephie. "Why say so?" answered Nate puzzled. "Like having a disease?" "does thalassemia sound familiar?" Stephie added. "how..." Nate qouted, "I jus overheard the doc and ur parents jus now" explained Stephie. The room was quiet for a brief moment. "was this the reason?" "was this the reason!!!" tears started falling of her face. "You lied that we weren't meant to be!" shouted Stephie. Nate could only lift up his weak arms trying to wipe the tears of her face. " you know, the only regret I have in my life is to be unable to spent more time with you" as he wiped the tears away. She fell to his chest and cried. Nate hugged her. Tears were visible dropping of Nate's face. Hiding behind the doors Samantha saw everything and broke into tears. Jeff, her husband tried to comfort her.

Thats all for this time...... haha... jus got this much of juice. Hope to write more. XD ~S.M.~

P.S. I love You~

A love movie about a pair of young couples who aint doin a good time in the city. The Husband dies and the wife becomes paranoid for quite awhile until she received a cake from her dead husband? Then there was a letter telling her to do a number of stuffs. I think it was to tell her to move along.(haha?).

All the things he planned for here kept reminding her of their past and how happy they were at first. He is as if trying to tell her that he might be dead but those beautiful memories will remain and its not suppose to hold her back. At the end she understands and carried on living. This story is a very beautiful stury because it shows how he really loves her full heartedly. He planned everything before dying and knows exactly wat needs to be done.

James Blunt - Love love love

First time heard this song from radio. Lite FM. It's nice.. XD Enjoy~



I'm not looking for us
and neither should you.
Absolutely gorgeous,
then nothing I say is true.
You won't find yourself
in these guilty eyes

'cause I love anybody who's fool enough to believe
And you're just one of many who broke their heart on me
And so I say I don't love you,
though it kills me
It's a lie that sets you free.

Love, love, love
I can't take your
Love, love, love

And so I say I don't love you,
though it kills me
It's a lie that sets you free.

I will wrap my body
in other women's arms.
Make love in a hurry,
feel better than I am.
Hope you find yourself
in someone else's eyes

'cause I love anybody who's fool enough to believe
And you're just one of many who broke their heart on me
And so I say I don't love you,
though it kills me
It's a lie that sets you free.

Love, love, love
I can't take your
Love, love, love

And so I say I don't love you

'cause I love anybody who's fool enough to believe (Love, love, love)
And you're just one of many who broke their heart on me (Love, love, love)
And so I say I don't love you, (Love, love, love)
though it kills me
'cause it's a lie

'cause I love anybody who's fool enough to believe (Love, love, love)
And you're just one of many who broke their heart on me (Love, love, love)
And so I say I don't love you, (Love, love, love)
though it kills me
It's a lie that sets you free.
