So this is the movie that i just watched. This film has been nominated for 4 oscar and what it really attracted me is because of it is based on a true story that happened in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. There was a housing project built in the 60's and it has became dangerous place where violence lying on in the early 80's.
There is another world that i have never thought of kept playing in the film. I mean it was like far away from us. There is still many people struggled to find their own way to continue move on or get the easier way to accomplish their goal. But in City of God, most people take the opportunity ahead. And since then they think bout their destiny, their faith. Unfortunately, what that waited in front them is the death's calling.
Enjoy this movie if you are fond of true-story film as i do.
I am so frustrating for have to re-do my proposal for tmr night... I don't have much time to figure out a new framework plus so blurring on doing it...
How am i supposed to get the 30 pages done includes the powerpoint presentaion within 24 hours?
You think you know the world you are living in. If you can feel it, and touch it, and smell it, and taste it, then it must be so. You tell yourself that you would bet your life on the simple fact that the sky is blue. And then one day someone comes along and informs you emphatically that you're wrong. Blue, you insist. Blue as the ocean. Blue as a whale. Blue as my daughter's eyes. But that person shakes his head, and eveyone else backs him up. You poor girl, they say. All of those things - the ocean, the whale, her eyes - they're green. You've gotten them mixed up. You've had it wrong all along.
-by Jodi Picoult in Vanishing Acts.
I am wondering do i really know the world better than i was. What if i am holding the false belief all along?
Need to pass up my 30 pages proposal on next Tuesday. Unfortunately i haven't done any single page yet. I keep doubting about my research title at the moment. And it makes me inconfidence to continue with it...feeling like i am going to screw up myself during the presentation...
She was like gone with the wind...suddenly vanished from my life... I only can share her stories through her blog. Wondering the days she will be depart to UK. I miss her..and i did let her know about it. It is rarely to get someone that indeed can emphasize our feeling no matter what circumstances are. We don't have much time to spend together...but we do know each other really well. She is the one that i feel safe to share everything with... She is the only one that makes me feel warm whenever she is around. But she is leaving here very soon...
There are many people come across our life. Some stay forever, some walk away in half path.. some leaving their footprint permanently, some that we hope just to erase their existance... Would you miss the person that used to call you in the middle of the night? Would you miss the person that used to rang you just for saying goodnite? Would you do it all over again if you ever got second chance to make it right? I am doubtful about it all the time. I know that i am complicated. And i seemed like making everything so complicated around me even that i never wish for... feel like my mood has been swinging since the pass few days. I could not bear with the emptiness deep inside my heart. I wish i could running away...SIGH
Some people leaving.. and back in our life sometimes. And sometimes, it is better we stay the same... At least we won't hurting each other at the end of the day.
Get to watch this video from Peywen's blog. Just feel like sharing it here..
In my dreams, Children sing A song of love for every boy and girl The sky is blue, the fields are green And laughter is the language of the world Then I wake and all I see is a world full of people in need
Tell me why,(why) does it have to be like this Tell me why, (why) is there something I have missed Tell me why, (why) cause I don't understand When so many need somebody We don't give a helping hand Tell me why
Every day, I ask myself what will I have to do to be a man Do I have, to stand and fight To prove to everybody who I am Is that what my life is for? To waste in a world full of war
Tell me why, (why) does it have to be like this Tell me why, (why) is there something I have missed Tell me why,(why) cause I don't understand When so many needs somebody We don't give a helping hand Tell me why (Tell me why) Tell me why (Tell me why) Tell me why (Tell me why) Just tell me why (why, why, why)
Tell me why, (why) does it have to be like this Tell me why, (why) is there something I have missed Tell me why, (why) cause I don't understand When so many need somebody We don't give a helping hand Tell me why (Why why, does the tigers run?) Tell me why (Why why, do we shoot the gun?) Tell me why (Why why, do we never learn?) Can someone tell us why we let the forests burn
(why why do we say we can?) tell me why (why why is it still the same?) tell me why (why why do we talk and run?) tell me why can someone tell us why we let the ocean die
(why why do we always say?) tell me why (why why do we pass the blame?) tell me why (why why does it never rain?) can someone tell us why we cannot just be friends
(why why do we close our eyes?) (why why do we really lie?) (why why do we fight for land?) can someone tell us why cause we don't understand why why?
I bought two of Jodi Picoult's books last month when i went to Borders with Denise. I finished Perfect Match and still working on Vanishing Acts since last week. Think i am not gonna have much more time to follow the story cos need to pass up my 30 pages proposal on next Tuesday.. sigh..
Just happening found this book in a magazine shop in Gurney when i back from hometown. To be frank, i am not really into this what-so-called great leader in Malaysia. Just my desire of knowing what kinda craps inside forcing me to pay the bill.
This book caught my attention when i was in Borders with Denise. Yet i did not buy it cos i have been spending a lot that time. Feeling like share it with Itee and Gan then show Itee last night when we went to Queensbay. Thus, i cannot resist the temptation... as you know...
