wonder voices

Trippin out
Spinning around
I'm underground
I fell down
Yeah I fell down
I'm freaking out, where am I now?
Upside down and I can't stop it now
Can't stop me now, oh oh
I, I'll get by
I, I'll survive
When the world's crashing down
When I fall and hit the ground
I will turn myself around
Don't you try to stop me
I, I won't cry
I found myself in Wonderland
Get back on my feet, on the ground
Is this real?
Is this pretend?
I'll take a stand until the end
I, I'll get by
I, I'll survive
When the world's crashing down
When I fall and hit the ground
I will turn myself around
Don't you try to stop me
I, I won't cry
I, I'll get by
I, I'll survive
When the world's crashing down
When I fall and hit the ground
I will turn myself around
Don't you try to stop me
I, and I won't cry

Avril Lavigne ha an awe-inspiring voice...reading through these lyrics and tuning in to her overruing voice it made me grab a cup of tea....

For me, the song is a collision of imagination and reality. When failures come and blunders sink in, I used to lay down and reversed the whole story. I guess every one has its own wonderland to escape reality. But no matter how astonishing and spellbinding the images and things we saw in our secret grounds we will always hear the blustering sound of the ringing bell. Yes , the bell always ring, reminding us to awake and get out form our personal maze.
In the real world, most of us would pretend and hide the hurt. I have said many times "I won't Cry" but tears would just leak and I can't control it.Sometimes, the more we try to conceal our fear,doubts and bad feelings, the more it got worse. For me it is always better to let it out, reveal all what you feel and it would be a great relief. We are not robots,we are humans designed with emotions and so thus we feel,we love and we hate.
God is truly great for putting our brains on the top. Even though at ties that we are so overwhelmed with emotions we still need to think, we still need to figure out the difference of white and black.
The song is also portraying of a brave heart. Even though the our world crashes down, when everything seems to be not working out we could still survive. Even though Ondoy and Pepeng had hit our country and Earthquake have shaken Haiti and Chile we could still stand and Survive.Yes we'll get by, with God and Christ as our savior we'll get through everything. Because God doesn't play dice ,there are trials But God assure that we could surpass them. True wonderland is Living with God.

Summer ♥○○○♥

It is like 31-33 degree Celsius here in Cebu, Philippines. Oh yeah I could feel the colossal heat of the sun and beseech for a toss of wave of the blue ray beach. Oh yeah....Everybody awaits for summer and finally here it comes...


Everybody seems to Love Summer. Summer is the juncture where in people feels like having an infinite freedom. No worries, no school,no exams, absolutely nothing and we all know doing nothing is enticing the word "BORING". We don't want to spoil the fun and experience that only Summer can give us and so thus we keep ourselves assiduous. Some people adore the beauty of the day, strolling around the park, shop here and there, and doing some Tarzan adventures.While other people (like me) would love to vibe on summer nights, it is cooler in the night and windy . With the music and drinks everyone wants to get tipsy and steamy. I don't know what's the magic in summer but it really washes away people's sanity and forget the whole heck that happened in their lives. I believe that some people are chippng away to compose the charm and practice the spell in search of love for this summer. Yeah I have known a few couples who have met and ended in Summer. I guess everyone is looking for that magic ,true magic, LOVE and everyone hopes to have this Summer.


I do believe not all people are actually having a great time in Summer, I know it is kinda ironic, but that's the Truth. Everyone always wanted to have an unforgettable summer just like another unforgettable holiday. There maybe just some people out there sitting on the couch surfing the net and posting a blog (like me..haha). Or someone out there is downloading a bunch of movies and never get tired of building castles in the air.

But when everything gets shut down we get back to reality and longs for that summer smell. Everyone must have his and her own story of Summer.

A great  movie has its story of  "500 days of Summer" Actually I really thought that the movie is a love story that happened in Summer.I would say the movie is one of the funniest and saddest love story I have seen. "AAAWWEE" this was the frequent expression I have committed through out the film.

Tom who was a greeting-card writer and hopeless romantic, is caught completely off-guard when his girlfriend, Summer suddenly dumps him. He reflects back on their 500 days together to try to figure out where their love affair went sour, and in so doing, Tom rediscovers his true passions in life


.
Summer: Ok. I, like being on my own. I think relationships are messy and people’s feelings get hurt. Who needs it? We’re young, we live in one of the most beautiful cities in the world; might as well have fun while we can and, save the serious stuff for later


I think from this lines it explained why Summer had inflict a serious pain on tom. From the very start it was just like a game for Summer.Now I kinda agree on Summer, we have the same landscape regarding relationships. To be honest , I am not willing to take risk on love because I am petrified to languish the pain, the pain that I have seen in eyes of many people. Friends came over to me singing those old blues, and my parent's relationship was at worst and it never worked out. I don't want commitments because I don't want an austere discord.Yeah, why don't just enjoy life with your friends and family , time is running it ain't moving backward.
That's my landscape when I'm on the center stage but when the curtains fall it turned into ashes. By night a tear drop on my delicate pillow, How much I wanted to love and to be loved. Yet it is easy to love than to beloved, I've always waited for the day that love will come on my way.
yes I do have regrets, regrets for not taking risk. I have abandoned love long time ago and now I wanna take it back but it is no longer to be found. Yes , time won't turn back. I just hate it when it is there you ignore it but when it is lost you can't help but keep looking for it even at the dead end.


Tom: People don't realize this, but loneliness is underrated.
I don't know exactly what the line is portraying. In my own understanding, at some point yeah I agree loneliness is underrated. Some people thought a cone of ice cream could easily replace it. It is difficult to deal with loneliness especially when you get used having that good company.It is always hard to let go, because we are primed to believe in all possibilities. We can't be move because the cut is so deep that we always thought of all crazy possibilities. I remember missing a beach outing ,I was alone in home while they were rocking on that waves and then I saw their pics and they were having a great time, to ease that feeling of being left behind and actually not having fun ,I drifted my mind and imagined what could have happened if I was there. Do we get tired of imaging things that actually didn't happened? we always have this "What if". Again, afraid to take risk. Some are just so afraid to accept the fact that it is over because we can't imagine a world without them just like as tom breaks down because summer isn't by his side.
That's why we have friends and family so that in time of despair, loneliness would just be a small word. We always needed those encouraging words, their embraces and even jokes so that we could stood up and finally stop chasing pavements.

Tom:I feel like why make some disposable like a building when you can make something that lasts, like a greeting card.~
I have always loved greeting cards, even e-cards. Greeting cards send direct messages to the heart that will truly mark and stays forever. I have tons of greeting cards before, actually they were from my aunts and grandma and then I collected them. When I read the messages it is simple yet so deep. The images and handwriting it is so beautiful that you can't throw it away.
That's what I have learned, everyday make the most of it , make something that will be remembered forever.
There is no love that can be dispose, every love is meant to be kept on a treasure box. There are people who are dumb and waste that precious love.
Sometimes we expected too much out of the box. Who doesn't wat to be loved in return? but Love is not automatic it is not manipulable. Love has its own mind, we can't decide for it. No mattner how much we wanted it we should be patient to wait for it.
Tom met Summer, Summer met tom , Tom falls in love with Summer, but Summer doesn't.
There was love for Tom but not the Love he expected. It was not a happy ending for their relationship.
Yes love could be cruel,harsh and painful. But there's more to that, Live life, there is so much to be love...Life is full of presents, it is beautiful and it is love.......when your stuck in the middle just take a pitcher of Bacardi , take a splash of the mystic water and open the door get sunlight.....life may just have a gift for you.......Just like Tome she met Autumn when he walks out that door.........





LOve..Love..LoVe ♥♥♥ SuMMer.....live and love it....

The Lovely Bones Review (Movie)


With the title alone it already gave me a hint that this movie is puzzling around a phenomenal enigma. I thought at first this could be a horror medical movie. It was later on I found out that the movie was an adaptation of a novel by Alice Sebold. I know movies don't do the same well as in books, but I love how the movies captured the mesmerizing mirage in a short period of time.


" My name is Salmon,like the fish;Sussie. I was
fourteen when I was murdered on December 6,1973"

Susie Salmon was a 14 year old girl, who unfortunately was murdered by their psychopath neighbor. The Salmon's were like picture perfect family. Susie was cheerful and creative.Susie indeed enjoyed his childhood years and embracing the life as a teen.

The movie was really more interesting to watch because Susie,who was murdered, narrated the whole story. The movie allowed the people to have a glimpse of what is it like to be a lost soul, seeking for vengeance and still holding on ,beholding the despondency of your loved ones.

To loose someone is like being stab by a knife, but to let go and move on is more painful. I cried when I saw Susie's parents faces after knowing their daughter is dead. It is most painful when you knew someone had indecorously took the life of your love one. It is mostly impossible to stop hanging on the transparent thread, because you will keep on believing that the thread will lead you back to him/her.


Here are some Quotes form the book and the movie

"Murder had a blood red door on
the other side of which was everything unimaginable to everyone"

When a family is in agony of tragedy,people would understand and have that empathy not to intervene the grieving family. Neighbors and friends perhaps would distant themselves and give them time to erase the drenching black memory.

For me when a family is soaked in these unimaginable situations, they are in most need of presence and ears of other people. Neighbors and friends don't need to help them elucidate the heartache but they need to let the in pain family feel their warmth and care. No need of words to be spoken but just an embrace and a mind open for their sentiments.

It is much more appreciated if neighbors and friends would just help the family remember the good things that had happened and distant themselves of letting the family remember the sad story. I do believe people's weakest is emotions, emotions are vulnerable, no matter how try to hide them, it will just overflow and show. People needs people to survive, to continue living on and to hope to live on.

Every now and then we all hear about murder cases. This movie reminded me of Geraldine Palma, a 7 year old little girl who's body was found on a suitcase floating in the Breakwater last August,2007.

Susie's body was never found. I guess this maybe one reason why pain really did linger on that pain killers could not steal away the aches. Unless there was no confirmation or evidence we continue to assume. Salmon family, especially Susie's dad, lived in that way, they knew she was dead but inside them is saying that Susie will soon come home.

There was Susie's heaven whom she had met other young girls who were also brutally killed. There was Holly, who became her company in her journey.A As sussie watched the trembling earth she had found that these girls were just like her, someone has stolen their blissful lives.

"Because Horror on Earth is real and it is
everyday. It is like the flower or the sun, it cannot be contained."
I agree on this statement, truly on earth every second is like a thief a thief in the night.Every tick of the clock someone is whaling for his life, someone is ruthlessly breaking the smile of tomorrow. There are invincible things that awaits to be seen and be given freedom. No man is innately bad, because we are created in Image and likeness of God. There are just men driven by the poisonous system, this system kills their soul.But I know in time they will be able to feel the pain they have done and I know that in time this poison in them will vanish. No matter how bad or evil may is he, there is still a glowing piece of his heart because we were all created in Image and Likeness of God.
