Third Blog - Death and Life

So my third blog was inspired by the Korean TV series, 49 Days. It's a good show. If you want to have this moving feeling I'm having right now, watch it. ;)The story mainly involves death and life. And that's what I'm here to talk about. :) (Oh, and this will be quick because my sister, Mesha, will still use the laptop. xD)

 49 Days

Life: Enjoy life. There's plenty of time to be dead.
Among the many quotations about life, this one's my favorite. Maybe, because I can relate to this one. Going back to 49 Days, the protagonist lived a full life because she was able to give SINCERE love to her family and friends and in return she was SINCERELY loved back by those people. Isn't that beautiful? :) And that is the best way to enjoy life. Give love and be loved in return. It's the greatest thing you'll ever learn, according to the movie, Moulin Rouge. ("The greatest thing you'll ever learn is to love and be loved in return.") The protagonist knew that she was dying, so she gave all her best to show the people she loves what she truly feels for them. And in the end, she lived a full life.

When I was a child, I used to be a crybaby. The simplest thing could cause tears in my eyes. However, people who know me by now will find that hard to believe. Because right now, I am the cynical optimist. I am a Pollyanna. The person who always smiles. Sometimes, I even think if I am just delusional for believing that everything will turn out the way I want. But it never hurts to hope, right? :P Anyway, the point is, there was one point in my life when I just got tired of crying and being sad. So I just became happy. And now, I am a robot programmed to be happy all the time! :))

Death: You're not going away from home but you are going home.
This is my point of view when it comes to death. I think this is the best way to think about this very deeply grieving issue. But this doesn't mean that I'm not scared to die. Of course, I AM SCARED! I mean, there must be something wrong with me if I'm NOT, right? I still have many things I want to achieve so I'm not prepared to die yet. But having that point of view, lessens the fear of dying. When we die, we are not really leaving our home, we are just going back home to God where we truly belong. :D 

In addition to this, I have decided to be a donor. Consider this as one last generous act I do in life. :)
Go to this sight if you decided to be one as well: https://www.facebook.com/organdonorcard (note: for Filipinos only, hehe)


As an end note, I'll be leaving a quotation from 49 Days: "This today of yours is the precious tomorrow of someone who passed away yesterday." :)

Second Blog - Crush


So, for my second blog, I'll be writing about those people who captured my ♥. Since I don't have a love life - YET, you will be reading about my hollywood crushes! Embrace yourselves for this totally lame idea for a blog, haha. But maybe, I could help you see some eye-candy. ;)

note: I came up with this idea, just this morning. I woke up with a smile on my face because I had a great dream, and that dream inspired me. :P So, I maybe not include some of my crushes, but on this list are the celebrities who surely made me go "Waaaaaahhhhhhhh!"


Top 7: Harry Potter
Who wouldn't fall in love with the boy who lived? the chosen one? HARRY POTTER?! Many adores this guy. He is simply adorable (especially when he was younger, during the first two films of HP). Addition to his cuteness is his lovely British accent. Whenever I hear him speak, I can't seem to wipe the smile on my face! :))


Top 6: Gordo of Lizzie Mcguire 
I was a big Lizzie Mcguire fan! And like any other avid Lizzie Mcguire fans, I once fell in love with the nice-smart-best friend type of guy named Gordo. Aside from his personality, isn't he cute too? I wish that I had a friend, nope, a boyfriend like Gordo! haha :D

Top 5: Chuck Bass of Gossip Girl
Now, next on the list is Chuck Bass, the Dark Knight. At first, he seems to be a bad guy, but deep inside he really is a good guy! He's just misunderstood and this adds to his charm! When you watch Gossip Girl, (I'm warning you) prepare yourselves because you won't be able to stop to fall for this guy. He got it all: looks, a good heart and money! hahahaha. It would be cool to date a guy like him. Plus, Ed Westwick is a super hot eye-candy! ;)

Top 4: Finn Hudson of Glee
Oh, I'm also a certified Gleek! :) That's why I can't help myself not to like Finn Hudson. No words can explain my admiration for this guy! I simply love him! :") Watch Glee to see his awesomeness! :D

Top 3:  Chad Dylan Cooper of Sonny with a Chance
I never ever thought that I could like Sterling Knight. Heck, I didn't even like him at first. But since I watched Sonny with a Chance, I became addicted Chad Dylan Cooper!!! I don't know if it is because of hypnotism. You see, his face was everywhere on the show, as in literally EVERYWHERE! The show was designed for us to like him! Anyway, you will fall in love with his confidence (which is in the verge of narcissism! XD). And how funny he was in the show is a plus. He's cute as well. :) 

Top 2: David Archuleta
Now, do I have to explain why I love David Archuleta? hahaha. Ever since he went out on American Idol, he captured millions of hearts (including mine ♥). He already went here in the Philippines three times. And it's just sad that I still can't meet him in person. Though, on his second visit here, I heard him sing live. I just wasn't able to see him. So, I guess, there's still a YEY for me! I promised myself that I will have my picture taken with this guy someday! :D

Top 1: Zachary Levi
Zachary Levi is at the top of my list because he has it all. He's a great actor.  He is very funny. He sings. You can hear his voice on the Disney movie, Tangled. (I love that movie!) He is soooooo handsome! His charm on screen is irresistible. He is a christian; so him being a good person is given. And he is a NERD! I like nerdy guys! :)  I give him a standing ovation for being proud. I just love him! :D

As an end note, I'll be leaving you a quotation. I think these words of wisdom will be my thing from now own. So an anonymous said that: "It takes a minute to have a crush on someone, an hour to like someone and a day to love someone. But it takes a lifetime to forget someone." ;)

First Blog - Assurance of a Dreamer

For my very first blog here in blogspot (or blogger.com), I'm going to show you one of my talents. And that is *drum roll, please! :D* writing poems! I know it's not that impressive anymore. People all over the world can right verses which rhyme, if they try, right? But I hope you'll like it anyway. :) I just want this first blog to matter; you know, the kind that can  inspire others. Hmm, as a Psychology graduate, I have the moral obligation to care, to help and to change other people (but only the ones who are in need of changing, =>). That's why I'm doing this. That's my goal. Maybe, I can accomplish it. Who knows? I'll be ecstatic if I can help even one person! :D So here it goes:
Assurance of a Dreamer

Losing one thing I've treasured,
Wants me to be reassured,
That all bad things will be cured,
And that one thing is for sure.
I want myself to believe,
Things I want the most conceives.
The things I want to achieve,
Someday, somehow, I'll receive.
How much sadder it may get,
I just have to comprehend.
There are things which come to end,
But joy will surely transcend.
So even things lost in sleep,
Now and forever, I'll keep.

"Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you have imagined." This was quoted by Henry David Thoreau. I googled him; he's an American writer/poet. And he had given a very good advice. :) As an end note, I'm writing this to you: Dreams are necessary. They give us purpose here on earth. They help us feel alive. And the harder the way to reaching your dream, the greater the feeling you'll have when you achieve it. So, just keep dreaming! ;)
