Being Dork – Sydney White



This is one of the coolest movies ever. It helps me realize that we all have dorky stuff and we should not be ashamed of it. Instead, we must be true to ourselves and accept our being dork. This will not only make us happy but it will also make people love us. Once we become true to what we feel and act without pretensions, then it will absolutely makes us comfortable leading us to be happy. Also, humbly accepting oneself will make people believe in you. Like Sydney, she doesn’t mind if people will condemn her or not. She just acted the way she really is and become true to herself. And see, in the end, people around her love her so much.

Back-to-Back “I am Legend” and “National Treasure 2 – Book of Secrets”




Two of the latest movies, I am Legend and National Treasure 2, are hitting the box office all over the world. Well, for me, they both rocks!!!

I am Legend




Will Smith plays the survivor Robert Naville from an outbreak which pushes the humanity to the brink of extinction. He is together with his lovely german shepherd, Sam (Samantha), who became the loyal companion of the last man on earth. Together, they fight for survival in order to find cure for the virus. Naville is immune from the virus and Sam is only immune to airborne strain of the virus. (See
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I_Am_Legend_(film))



I was very sad when in the middle of the movie, Sam died. I felt the pain of being alone. Overall, the movie is very beautiful, sadly, Robert Naville died to defend the cure which he handed over to a Ana who went to the survivors colony. By the way, Ana and Ethan came from Maryland.

National Treasure 2 – Book of Secrets



The hunt for treasure was on in the adventurous movie National Treasure 2. The story was about Ben Gates finding the proof that his great great grandfather is innocent of the assassination of Pres. Lincoln. The treasure that they were looking for will unlock the truth of the past and save the name of the Gates. (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Treasure:_Book_of_Secrets)



This movie is a great and fantastic movie since the pieces of history were all stitch up together which makes the movie educational and very unique. You will be amazed to discover that a certain part of our history is related to what happened to another historic place. The movie also introduces a book of secrets which contains the facts behind some controversial subjects, like Area 51 and Watergate.

It really pays to listen very well and be attentive while watching a movie coz you too can be like Ben Gates, linking the objects which molds your life. After watching the two movies, I've discovered that there is something common between these movies. It was not obvious though but maybe you can use it to hide some messages or treasures or use it as a puzzle to a map or even hidden messages in a poem. If you want to know this similarity, you can email me and I'll give you back the answer. (see my profile).

Tnx for visiting.
