Angels & Demons

Filed under: movies — Tags: , — R @ 9:19 pm

have you seen the movie? if you haven’t then i think you should. i personally think it’s so much better than “The Da Vinci Code“. highly recommended by me. :D

about the movie, well i’m not a Catholic, so perhaps i have a rather different view about the movie because i’m not that closely related. however, i still could relate to it in one way or another. i might not be a really religious person but i do believe in God.

what awed me so much about this movie, aside from its stunning visual presentation (Rome is #2 in my “must visit list” now lol), is how it portrays the relationship between religion and science. i personally believe that religion and science are not two clashing side, i think they complement each other, that’s why i really like what Cardinal Strauss said nearing the end of the movie.

i guess i have to read the book too. :D

miss california and her answer.

Filed under: opinions — Tags: , — R @ 12:15 pm

i don’t know why people are so agitated because of that. i mean surely it’s not a really diplomatic answer, but the question is directed at her and she gave the answer based on her view, her opinion. why should she be attacked because of that just because it’s something that people don’t agree to? she never intended to offend anybody, she was just stating her own opinion.

she could give an answer like “i believe it’s up to the states whether they want to legalize it or not” or something along that line and nothing would happen but even if it’s not how she answered the question, i still believe there’s no need for a drama.

before you make any assumption, i’m not saying that i agree with her answer. i believe people should be able to choose without having to go through trouble to do it if the choice they’re about to choose doesn’t put others in a disadvantage position. i’m just saying it’s really unnecessary to attack something we don’t particularly agree.

we have different opinions, different views, different perspectives.
what’s wrong with that? we could still all live in harmony if we want to.

seriously though, where has respect gone?
if i’m about to lose my faith in humanity it’s definitely gonna be because i feel humankind is no longer capable of this wonderful thing called respect.

P!nk – Please Don’t Leave Me

Filed under: songs — Tags: , — R @ 2:04 am

Da da da da, da da da da
Da da da da-da da

I don’t know if I can yell any louder
How many time I’ve kicked you outta here?
Or said something insulting?
da da da da-da
I can be so mean when I wanna be
I am capable of really anything
I can cut you into pieces
But my heart is….broken

Da da da-da da
Please don’t leave me
Please don’t leave me
I always say how I don’t need you
But it’s always gonna come right back to this
Please, don’t leave me

How did I become so obnoxious?
What is it with you that makes me act like this?
I’ve never been this nasty
Can’t you tell that this is all just a contest?
The one that wins will be the one that hits the hardest
But baby I don’t mean it
I mean it, I promise

Da da da-da da
Please don’t leave me
Da da da-da da
Please don’t leave me
Da da da-da da
I always say how I don’t need you
But it’s always gonna come right back to this
Please, don’t leave me

I forgot to say out loud how beautiful you really are to me
I can’t be without, you’re my perfect little punching bag
And I need you, I’m sorry.

Da da da da, da da da da
da da da da-da da
Please, please don’t leave me

Baby please don’t leave me
No, don’t leave me
Please don’t leave me no no no
You say I don’t need you but it’s always gonna come right back,
It’s gonna come right back to this.
Please, don’t leave me.
No.
No, don’t leave me
Please don’t leave me, oh no no no.
I always say how I don’t need you
But it’s always gonna come right back to this

Please don’t leave me
Please don’t leave me

addicted to this song right now. i’ve been listening for hours. :D

There are 18 letters in your name.
Those 18 letters total to 69
There are 7 vowels and 11 consonants in your name.

Your number is: 6

The characteristics of #6 are: Responsibility, protection, nurturing, community, balance, sympathy.

The expression or destiny for #6:
The number 6 Expression provides you a truly outstanding sense of responsibility, love, and balance. The 6 is helpful and ever conscientious, making you quite capable of rectifying and balancing any sort of inharmonious situation. You are a person very much inclined to give help and comfort to those in need. You have a natural penchant for working with the old, the young, the sick, or the underprivileged. Although you may have considerable creative and artistic talents, the chances are that you will devote yourself to an occupation that shows concern for the betterment of the community.

The positive side of the number 6 suggests that you are very loving, friendly, and appreciative of others. You have a depth of understanding that produces much sympathetic, kindness, and generosity. The qualities of the 6 make the finest and most concerned parent and one often deeply involved in domestic activities. Openness and honesty is apparent in your approach to all relationships.

If there is an excess of the number 6 in your makeup, you may exhibit some of the negative traits associated with this number. There may be a tendency for you to be too exacting and demanding of yourself. In this regard, you may at times sacrifice yourself (or your loved ones) for the welfare of others. In some cases, the over zealous 6 has difficulty distinguishing helping from interfering. You may have difficulty expressing your own individuality, because of involvement with responsibilities and causes. Like all with the Expression of the number 6, it’s quite likely that you worry much too much.

Your Soul Urge number is: 7

A Soul Urge number of 7 means:
With a number 7 Soul Urge you are very fond of reading, and retreating to periods of being alone and away from the disruptions of the outer world. You like to dream and develop you idealistic understandings, to study and analyze, to gain knowledge and wisdom. You may be too laid back and withdrawn to really succeed in the business world, and you will be much more comfortable in circumstances that are tolerant of your reserve, your analytical approach, and your desire to use your mind rather than your physical being.

You are very timid around people that you don’t know very well, so much so at times that casual conversation and social situations can be strained. You tend to repress your emotions to the extend that some people have a good bit of difficult understanding you. You tend to be very selective with friends and you don’t easily adapt to new environments or to new people very quickly.

The negative traits of the 7 include becoming too much the introvert and isolated from others.

Your Inner Dream number is: 8

An Inner Dream number of 8 means:
You dream of success in the business or political world, of power and control of large material endeavors. You crave authority and recognition of executive skills. Your secret self may have very strong desire to become an entrepreneur.

to my surprise, the result is actually pretty accurate though some are still debatable because i don’t find myself that way. :D funny how there’s so much that can be told from a name. :)
