23 Koreans are caught in Afghanistan. Pastor is known as to be killed already. Many families are in great depression. They went there to help sick people. Although they have their own plans and goals to achieve they should let them free. One women even recorded her voice asking for help. It may be a disturbance of them to put Korea in uneasiness. We have to be calm and try to find the best way to negotiate peacefully. I hope they return safely.
As I searched around the youtube I found this video. The idea they had and the ability was fantastic.They are so creative. I do not know how many days had it taken to make that long video fast forwarded but it is not a thing that anyone can do easily. The lip they made was totally a brilliant idea. It would have required a lot of time to think of those plans and ideas. This is really a special room. I wish I had a room like that. It would feel like I am standing in a jungle or a forest. If i try one of those images it would take more than a week to finish it. I would try the image of insdie the sea. They are focused more on the nature on ground. A picture of under the sea would be amazing too. It is an interesting video.
This is a comedy movie starred by Adam Sandler released in 1999. It won a People's Choice Award for favorite comedy motion picture and Adam Sandler won two awards. MTV movie award and Razzie award. I think most movies that Adam Sandler took is very hilarious. This was also too. He has talent in making people laugh. In this movie his name is Sonny.
This Sonny had been studying law but did not pass the exams and never put any effort to get a fine job. He was old enough to take care of himself but he was irreponsible. However, his friends got married and her girlfriend left her because he did not have a job. He begins to worry about his life. One day his roomate's son Julian was dropped off at his house because his mother was almost dying. Unfortunately, his friend was going away for a long time so he gets to take care of Julian. At first, irreponsible adult Sonny tells Julian that he can do whatever he wants to. As he lives with Julian he starts to love him and wants to be his father. So he pretends to be his father to NYC social services to keep him and sends him to school. At the end Sonny is called to the court because he lied that Julian is his son. Sonny insists that he really loves Julian and can be his father. However, the judge prefers to send him to jail for his wrong but his roomate refuses to punish him. His roomate admitted that he did father the child with a girl. After all, Kevin remained as Julian's father and Sonny had authority to see Julian anytime. One year later, Sonny took legal exams and become a successful lawyer.
This movie was funny when Sonny taught Julian to act anyway he wants to. They both acted like a child. They clean a spoiled milk with a newspaper and a wet bedcover. Morevoer, it was touching when Sonny really began to love Julian and feel the reponsibility for him. The moment where a person really becomes an adult is when they have their own baby. I do not know the exact feeling or love for their own child but I think it is a really strong power and energy that brings to every person. In fact, Julian is so cute. I wish I had a son Ilike him except for acting all by himself.
Here is a brief trailer of it.
There was an suicidal accident few months ago. A 16 year old girl appeared on the TV show for losing 40kg in three months. After the broadcast she took a photo with a singer who was also in the TV show as a guest. It was fine until then. People started to blame and curse her because of the belief that she lost weight in three months is a total lie. They also criticized for taking a photo with a famous singer. Many people abused her on online. They called her and threatened. Her school friends said she was under a great stress and pressure. After all she had committed suicide in her room and her parents found her dead. She had left a testament but it is not opened to the public.
To prevent these kinds of cyber bullying incidents we all have to pay more attention to it and try to make a good courtesy.
This is a website which is very popular in British called 'Bullying Online'. At the first sight it seems negative but actually it has won several national awards. It has a detail advice and explanation of a large number of topics to be concerned. People can find topics of violence such as homophobia, racism, abusive websties, bullying on the school bus and others. There are also advice for people who actually bully others. There are parts where parents can deal with the problem of the education system, classroom teachers, head teachers, governors and others. It helps them to have knowledge and solution to their matters. We all need to pay more attention and get adapted to the events when cyber bullying happens. Then you will not be frightened and confused than no preparation in advance. Everyone needs to practice caring other's feelings and teach teenagers to think in a good manner.
I made a survey with JungSun about cyber bullying. The questions were:
1) What would you do if someone sue you for bullying them?
2) What is the worst kind of bullying?
3) Why do you think people bully others?
4) How would you react when someone bullys you?
5) Do you care about people who bully others?
I had not enough time to ask three people but I asked two persons. Both of them were girls. They both said they will beg and ask for mercy if people sue them. They also said that criticizing about personal things is the worst bully. The msot difference between them was how they would react when someone bullys them. One person said she will capture the page where she was bullied and report to the website she was in. Once she tried it but the website just ignored her so she could not catch the person who bullied her. Ther other person said she would just bear and endure because it is a normal affair and it is difficult to catch that person. Whatever the reason a person starts bullying or get bullied it must be banned. I heard that the government actually enforced a new law to curb cyber bullying. I think this is a good start. I hope these cyber bullying will decrease in the future.
The Libertines is an English garage rock band who was famous around in the 2000. It was mainly composed of guitarist Carl Barat and the vocal Pete Doherty. John Hassall played the bass and Gary Powell played the drum. In 2001, their first song was listed on the England Billboard chart and grew famous. Their album had a great impact on the rock music in 21st century. Moreover, the clothes that Pete Doherty wore was from well known stylists and it had affected a lot to the England's fashion trend. However, there were a lot of internal conflicts due to Doherty's use of drugs and it lead the band to breakup afterall. The members went to another new band called babyshambles, diry pretty things and yeti.
They tend to have a close relationship with their fans. They actually become friends with some of the fans. They allowed the fans to meet them in a close distance and let them into their flat and see them. Doherty even published a book called 'Books of Albion' on online and demonstrated his own thoughts and feelings to the fans. He also opened a fan forum and talked about his life with the fans. These helped the relationship between the band and the public to grow more tight. They also released their songs on the internet for free so that the fans could listen to a song that is actually on the process and some that had been discarded.
There are two biographies about them which were written after they brokeup. The first one is 'Kids in the riot: high and low with the libertines' and the second one is 'the libertines bound together: the story of peter Doherty and Carl Barat and how they changed the British music'. Their poetic lyrics made the juveniles to write poems and songs by themselves. Many young bands acknowledges that they had a great influence to the British music.
I once had a chance to hear their songs and they were great. I like 'music when the lights go out', 'can't stand me now', 'don't be shy', 'campaign of hate' and others. My favorite one is the 'Music when the lights go out'. Take a look.
Music when the lights go out
Tyler Gage is only interested in dancing hip hop. One day he sneaks into a school with his friends for fun, but Tyler gets caught and sentenced for a community service in Maryland school of arts for two hundred hours. On the first day, he meets the principal and tells him to work hard because the cost of the damage he made is same as the amount of the tuition for each student in that school. While he is cleaning the school he meets Nora Clark and starts to talk to her who has a boyfriend already. Nora is a senior in this school and she is practicing a dance to show the dance scouts. However, her original partner Andrew was injured, so Tyler say he will help her practice. She is not sure what to do, so she asks him to catch her up to see whether he is good or not. As a result, Tyler is decided to be a replacement instead of Andrew. They practice everyday after school but for once. He was one hour late for the practice which made Nora angry but he does not find it a big problem to concern about. She asks her why he was late and he refutes that the dance is not suitable for him but to her. Later he considers seriously and apologizes to her. Nora break up with her boyfriend and Tyler asks the principal if he could graduate in this school. The principal required a show to prove that he really wants to stay and study for the rest of the day. Nora realizes that Andrew's style of dancing does not fit with her, whereas she likes the hip hop style of Tyler's. Andrew give up and after all and Tyler gets to dance with her. They begin the practice very hard for the recital and show a great performance in front of everyone. Consequently, Tyler is allowed to stay at school and graduate at the Maryland school of arts.
I loved this movie. I did not really look forward to this movie because I thought it would be a childish dancing parts showing up. However, since by brother was watching it I had no choice other than to watch. My favorite part is when Tyler begins to practice seriously and applies his style of dancing to the Nora's one. I was in rapture at that scene. It was so creative and exciting. It is the part where someone really begins to concentrate in what they love to do. It is the moment which a pupa turns into a butterfly. It is the time where he reborns. He was just a street dancer who had no future or a dream. I love those moments when a person is over energetic to challenge something. The reviewers criticized that the development of the story is almost the same to other movies like 8 miles, dirty dancing and others. I also agree with it, but in my opinion the performance of the dance was extraordinary fantastic. Thus, I want you to have a look at the dance also. Do you like it?
Show me the money
The best way of using the running machine
I love this video. This is a fantastic and extravagant idea to perform with the running machines. They can move around extremely freely. One of those men even look too old to jump on the running machine but they do it so naturally. It's hard to run constantly in a one machine but they run around for a long time. I like their idea so much but never try it at your home. It is too dangerous to give it a try.
I watched this movie few months ago. On April I had a presentation class and one of my classmates sang a song 'way back into love' from the movie. The first moment that I listened to it, I began to love the song. At that time I was busy with my reports and assignments so I did not get a chance to go to the theatre and watch it. So I borrowed the DVD and watched at home.
This movie is about a pop star, Hugh Grant, who used to be very famous but not anymore. One day he got a chance to comeback to the stage. That was to make a duet song for another top girl singer and singing with her. However, he had never written a song before and it has been a long time since he composed a music. So he was in big trouble. Fortunately, he meets Drew Barrymore who is talented in writing. They both cooperate and make the song 'way back into love'. She helps him to recover his celebrity and falls in love. As a result everyone is delighted.
I had a great expectation before watching the movie but as I watched it the flow of the story was so obvious. Although I had never seen any preview of the movie the story was so boring and an obvious romance ending. I was so disappointed and most part of the movie was about composing the song 'way back into love'. However, I had listened to that music thousands of times before I watched it. Hence, the process of writing the song did not came humorous to me. If I had watched it before listening to the music then it would have been more impressive. Though it was a little bit unsatisfactory I loved the smile of Hugh Grant. He is so handsome and adorable.
The most memorable quote that I remember is where they talk about the lyrics. Hugh Grant says to Drew Barrymore that lyrics does not have to be perfect. You just spit it out and mentions that it is not important as much as the melody. Meldoy is like sex. They get to know each other and between their harmony makes a magic. This comment was fresh because when I listen to musics usually I do not concentrate on the lyrics. I only listen to the melodies and the beat of the drum. I totally pass over the lyrics but after seeing how hard they work on the lyrics I began to listen carefully so that I could understand and feel the song wholely. I do not know where you focus but try listening to both of them.
Listen to the song~! You will love it. Take a look at the lyrics. They are beautiful.
Way back into love
Lyrics:
I've been living with a shadow overhead
I've been sleeping with a cloud above my bed
I've been lonely for so long
Trapped in the past
I just can't seem to move on
I've been hiding all my hopes and dreams away
Just in case I ever need them again someday
I've been setting aside time
To clear a little space in the corners of my mind
All I want to do is find a way back into love
I can't make it through without a way back into love
Oh oh oh
I've been watching but the stars refuse to shine
I've been searching but i just don't see the signs
I know that it's out there
There's got to be something for my soul somewhere
I've been looking for someone to shed some light
Not somebody just to get me through the night
I could use some direction
And I'm open to your suggestions
All I want to do is find a way back into love
I can't make it through without a way back into love
And if I open my heart again
I guess I'm hoping you'll be there for me in the end
Oh oh oh
There are moments when I don't know if it's real
Or if anybody feels the way I feel
I need inspiration
Not just another negotiation
All I want to do is find a way back into love
I can't make it through without a way back into love
And if I open my heart to you
I'm hoping you'll show me what to do
And if you help me to start again
You know that I'll be there for you in the end
Pop! goes my heart
Lyrics:
I never thought that I could be so satisfied
Every time that I look in your angel eyes
A shock inside me that words just can’t describe
And there’s no explaining
Something in the way you move I can’t deny
Every word from your lips is a lullaby
A twist of fate makes life worthwhile
You are gold and silver
I said I wasn’t gonna lose my head
But then pop! Goes my heart
(Pop! Goes my heart)
I wasn’t gonna fall in love again
But then pop! Goes my heart
(Pop! Goes my heart)
And I just can’t let you go
I can’t lose this feeling
These precious moments we have so few
Let’s go far away where there’s nothing to do but wait
You show to me that my destiny’s with you
And there’s no explaining
Let’s fly so high
Will you come with me tonight?
In your dress I confess you’re the sole sunlight
The way you shine in the starry skies
You are gold and silver
I said I wasn’t gonna lose my head
But then pop! Goes my heart
(Pop! Goes my heart)
I wasn’t gonna fall in love again
But then pop! Goes my heart
(Pop! Goes my heart)
And I just can’t let you go
I can’t lose this feeling
A twist of fate makes life worthwhile
You are gold and silver
I said I wasn’t gonna lose my head
But then pop! Goes my heart
(Pop! Goes my heart)
I wasn’t gonna fall in love again
But then pop! Goes my heart
(Pop! Goes my heart)
I said I wasn’t gonna lose my head
But then pop! Goes my heart
(Pop! Goes my heart)
I wasn’t gonna fall in love again
But then pop! Goes my heart
(Pop! Goes my heart)
And I just can’t let you go

Cuz your waist is small and your curves are kickin',
And I'm thinkin 'bout stickin,

Red beans and rice didn't miss her,
Some knucklehead tried to diss,
Cuz his girls are on my list,
He had game but he chose to hit 'em,

So ladies if the butt is round,
And you wanna X-bo down,
Dial 1-900-MIX-A-LOT, and kick them nasty thoughts,
Baby got back
Baby got back
Little in the middle but she got much back,
Little in the middle but she got much back
At first when I heard the song I could not understand the content fully and the topic of the song was unpleasant. It seemed like humiliating women. In fact, it actually caused some controversy with the sexual lyrics about women and the video was forbidden by MTV. However, as I kept on listening to the music I began to like the rhythm and the rhymes of the song. Some women may argue that it is a sexual harassment but I do not agree. I believe that song is a way of expressing your own thoughts and a means to deliver your opinions. The lyrics is just about a taste that he has for a women and anyone else can also express theirs. There are evem songs that criticize about President Bush, a particular person. This song is not picking on a one person and reproaching them. Therefore, I want to tell the women not to be offensive with this song. Just enjoy the song. There are several parody videos made by this song. One of them is called the "Baby Got Snacks" by Jamie Foxx. Have a look at it.
Baby got snacks
Lyrics:
I Like Big Girls And I Can Not Lie
Even If They're Big And Wide
Swoopin, Swaggin And Cheesy
You Know If That Meat Is Greasy
Scoopin Up Chips And Hot Wings
Eatin Up Cookies And Ice Cream

Oh Baby I Want To Get Wit Cha
Cause Your Pants Don't Fit Cha
My Homeboys Tried To Warn Me
But That Gut You Got Me (He So)
Oo Too Much Pork Skins
Your Butt Can't Fit In My Benz
With Smelly, Jelly, Feed That Big Ole Belly.
I Seen Her Huffin, Chokin On Milk And Muffins
With Butt And Gut, She Shake Like A Nissan Truck
Im Tired Of Magazines Sayin
You Always Gotta Be Lean
You Want Put A Big Girl In A Real Good Mood
She Gotta Have Some Food
So Fellas (Yeah) Fellas (Yeah)
Do You Really Like Your Women Stacked (Hell Yeah)
Then Feed, Her Please Her, Feed Her Some Cracker Jacks
Baby Got Snacks
L.A. Face Wit A Big Ole Ass
Too The Break Of Dawn
Baby Got The Food On
Theres Not Really Much To Say
Neck So Thick She Could Eat A Brick If It's Made By Frito Lay
She Down And Rouns
She'll Want A Buffet Throw Down
She's Suckin And Lickin
She's Eatin Up Chicken
So Ladies (Yeah) Ladies (Yeah)
Do You Really Wanna Go To Shakies (Hell Yeah)
Then Turn Around Stick It Out
Even The Helpless Gotta Shout
Baby Got Snacks
L.A. Face Wit A Big Ole Ass
So Your Girlfriend Eats A Salad
Lookin Like Bones You've Had It
Head Shaped Like A Lincoln
So Skinny You Could See What She's Thinking
So Take It From Trail Mix A Lot
You Want A Girlfriend You Can Dig
Then Give A Hug Cause There's More Than Love
Ain't Nothing Wrong Wit Bein Big
Baby Got Snacks
Yea Baby Butt So Big When She Backs Up It Sounds Like Beep Beep Beep
I like this parody video. It actually put fat women in the video and demonstrated that being fat is alright. That is why the title is about snacks. My favorite part was where he talked about magazine. Usually magazines show us slim women and that is approved in silence globlly. However, he is breaking that stereotype which many people has in their mind. Nowadays, everyone worship slim people. They skip their meals to lose their weight. As a result, many models died from excessive working on diet. This phenomenon is unbelievable and must stop happening furthermore. In Switzerland, there was a criticism of the way they select Miss Swiss. It has been a method of evaluating the outward apearance and this was censured my several people. People are starting to look at the inner beauty. This is a good indication because it means that peole are beginning to think properly, valuing what really is essential as a person. This song is also helping to awaken people's dead thoughts. Look over the lyrics and enjoy the song. There is another parody song that I found amusing.
Baby got book
Lyrics:
Oh my goodness, Becky, look at her Bible
It is so huge
She looks like one of those preacher guys girlfriends
Who understands those preacher boys
They only talk to her because she looks like Mother Teresa, ok?
I mean look at it...it's just so huge
Look, she's just so...righteous
Verse 1
I like big Bibles and I can not lie
You Christian brothers can't deny
That when a girl walks in with a KJV
And a book mark in Proverbs
You get stoked
Got her name engraved
So you know that girl is saved
It looks like one of those large ones
With plenty o' space in the margins
Oh baby, I wanna read witcha
Cause your Bible's got pictures
My minister tried to console me
But that Book you got makes ("M-m-me so holy")
Ooh, momma-mia
You say you want koinonia
Well, bless me, bless me
And teach me about John Wesley
I saw her prayingWhile I was DJing
She got grace...pretty face
She ain't goin' down to the bad place
I'm tired of heathen guys
Sayin' they like pocket-size
Ask the average Christian to take a look
She's gotta pack much Book
So...Fellas (Yeah), fellas (Yeah)
Has your girlfriend got the Book (Oh yeah!)
Well, read it (Read it!), read it (Read it!), read that Holy Book
Baby got Book
Chorus
(NIV with a ribbon bookmark)
Baby got Book
(NIV with a ribbon bookmark)
Verse 2
I like 'em leather and bound
It's 50 pounds
I just can't understand
How it is, some weenie
Wants the Bible on CD
She wanna get you saved
Amen! Double up! A-men!
I ain't talkin' about a paraphrase
Cuz Paul wouldn't use those anyways
like 'em real thick and red-letteredYou can't find nothin' betterSouthpaw's in love
Bibles that big are unheard of
So I'm sittin' here thinkin' "What if...
I find me a girl that shows midriff?"
You can have those bimbos
I'll keep those chick that do devos
A word to the Christian sistas
I can't resist yaI'll do God's time witcha
But I gotta be straight when I say I wanna pray
Til the break of day
Baby, got it goin' on
Like the wife in Pro-verbs 31
We just might get engaged
When we finish reading this page
Cuz it's worn and it's torn
And I know this girl's reborn
So ladies (yeah), ladies (yeah)
Do you wanna save people from Hades (yeah) Then read it...'til the pages fall out
Even white preachers got to shout
Baby got Book
(Thompson Chain with big red letters)
Baby got Book
Yeah baby
When it comes to a good book
Stephen King's resume just can't compare
39 + 27 = 66 books
And if you're Catholic...there's even more
So your girlfriend quotes Bill Hybels
But does she got a big Bible?
Cuz that little things she's got won't start a revival
My Bible study don't want none,Unless you got Book, Hon
...You can read Clancy or Grisham
But please don't loose this Book
Some brothers wanna play that hard hard role
And tell you that Book's too old
So they toss it and burn it
And I pull up quick to just learn it
So your girl likes paperback? Well I ain't down with that
Cuz my girlfriend's hot her Bible's rockin'
And she's got good doctrine
To the atheist chicks who try to dis
You ain't it Miss Priss
Give me a Christian, I'm insistin'
And I'll greet her with some holy kissin'
Some pervert tried to chase But he didn't make it past first base
She's quick to resist temptation
And she loves a new translation
So ladies who were lost and found
If you want the triple-six thrown down
Dial 1-800-reads-a-lot
And teach me about those Psalms
Baby got Book
(NIV with a ribbon bookmark)
Baby got Book
(Thompson Chain with big red letters)
Bible college knowledge but she still got Book (4 Xs)
As I searched along the Youtube I found this song and because I am a Christian I enjoyed watching it. I never look forward to seeing a parody video about Bibles. I just totallly agree with what he is saying although I do not read the Bible very often. Despite that I was born as a Christian I do not know much about the Bible because I was too lazy to read. However, I strongly recommend you to read it. It contains all the genres and astonishing stories about god which is whole true. God bless you and he will be with you all the time.
Yesterday I was so bored at home. I had a lot of things to study but I could not concentrate, so I was looking for a horror movie to watch. I wanted to watch 'The Exorcist' but I could not find it. My little brother recommended me this movie.
This story is about solving a case of murder. Denzel Washington is a famous criminologist and one day he meets Angelina Jolie. She was called to an accident spot by a little boy, so she stopped the train and took photos of a dead person and the place. He was surprised at how well she conserved the place where the accident occurred. He believed that she had a congenital talent in this sphere. He picked her as his partner and asked her to take photos and evidence but she was too scared to do it. First, she said she will give up but when he mentioned about choosing the path of own life, she changed her decision. She began to collect the evidence and found the criminal at the end.
After the movie was finished I felt that the development of the story passed too fast as if the director has contracted the story too much. There were several problems because of it.
First of all, the criminal had no motive, no probability in his consecutive murder incidents and those victims. The victims were married couple, an undergraduate student, and an old man with a little girl. They had no commonality and no reason to be killed my the murderer. The murderer killed them as same as in the book called 'the bone collector. At the end the murderer tried to kill Denzel Washington for his work was ignored and sent to jail. The murderer being sent to jail was never mentioned before but suddenly he appears with that reason and attempts to kill Dezel Washinton. It made me feel confused and vain. The conclusion was awkward. The murderer in the movie was not smart enough for a mystery movie. The director was not able to make the story more exciting than the original book.
Secondly, the director does not notify his purpose or any message to people. The director does not seem to show any main point in the movie although he must have had a reason for making this movie. The movie is about just matching little pieces of evidence and solving the problem. It is boring like giving information to people in a meeting. I still do not understand why the murderer's evidence of old papaers were shown. I wonder why the director had chosen an old paper as an evidence. Furthermore, the genre can not be defined to one. It is mixed with drama, thrill, and reality. He tried to make the movie scary but it was not at all. It also was related to reality of mystery. The director did not have any focus in advance. He just contracted the book into a movie of two hours.
Lastly, there were several scenes that were meaningless. In the beginning, Angelina Jolie came out with his boyfriend, but from some moment he never showed up again. There must have been an intention for showing him to us but I do not understand why the director put her boyfriend and did not talk anything about him. He did not need to waste time of showing a scene that is fruitless. He could have explained and described about the accident more delicately. Moreover, a clue that Angelina Jolie's father was also a policeman and had committed a suicide is absolutely irrelevant to the accident in the story. I thought it would be a big clue to Angelina or the accident however, it was nothing but an extra explanation.
Overall, I think the book would be better than the movie nevertheless I have not read it yet. I believe the book will be written in more detail with coherence. Therefore, I do not want to recommend this movie to you. What horror movies did you enjoy? Can you recommend me some?
