I love love love love love watching films!! I love the fact that I am watching a moving picture, it fascinates the hell out of me. I'm the type of person who will go to the cinema by myself. I love films that make me think. Ya know, when it just sparks a neverending marathon of inner monologues, like Angela's Ashes or Memento! I really get involved with the film and the characters. I put myself in it. There are films that have affected me for days, like Requim for a Dream or ET. I like all types of movies though. Love my vampire and zombie movies.....I do like some stupid comedies, kinda like how Wayne's World gets funnier and funnier every time you watch it, yeah, like that...

hahaha, let's take a moment:
"Now this is the story all about how,
My life got flipped, turned upside down,
And I’d like to take a minute, just sit right there,
I’ll tell you how I became the prince of a town called Bel Air. In West Philadelphia, born and raised
On the playground is where I spent most of my days.
Chillin’ out, maxin’, relaxin all cool,
And all shootin’ some b-ball outside of the school.
When a couple of guys who were up to no good,
Started makin’ trouble in my neighborhood.
I got in one little fight and my mom got scared,
And said You’re movin’ with your auntie and uncle in Bel Air. Well, I whistled for a cab, and when it came near,
The license plate said fresh and it had dice in the mirror.
If anything I could say that this cat was rare,
But I thought Nah forget it, "Yo home to Bel Air."
I pulled up to the house about 7 or 8,
and I yelled to the cabby "Yo homes, smell ya later."
Looked at my kingdom, I was finally there,
To sit on my throne as the Prince of Bel Air."
"Many people will walk in and out of your life, but only true friends will leave footprints on your heart. to handle yourself, use your head; to handle others, use your heart. Anger is only one letter short of danger. If someone betrays you once, it is his fault; if he betrays you twice, it is your fault. Great minds discuss ideas; average minds dicuss events; small minds discuss people. He who loses money, loses much; he who loses a friend, loses much more; he who loses faith, loses all. Beautiful young people are accidents of nature but beautiful old people are works of art. Learn from the mistakes of others. You can't live long enough to make them all yourself....There is no beginning or end. Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift, that is why they call it the present." ---Unknown

* "Love the earth and the sun and animals, despise riches, give alms to
everyone that asks, stand up for the stupid and the crazy, devote your
income and labors to others, hate tyrants, argue not concerning God,
have patience and indulgence towards the people, take off your hat to
nothing known or unknown, or to any man or number of men, go freely
with powerful uneducated persons and with the young and mothers of
families, re-examine all you have been told at school or church or in any
book, dismiss whatever insults your own soul, and your very flesh shall be
a great poem and have the richest fluency, not only in its words but in
the silent lines of its lips and face and between the lashes of your eyes
and in every motion and joint of your body."
Walt Whitman, *Leaves of Grass*
The truest heroes to me would be those who challenge me day after day. I would not be who I am without my parents, my sisters and my grandparents. I couldn't do it without my friends either. It's their support and love that gets me thru the daily grind; they mean more to me than the world and the oceans and the sun and the moon and the stars!
..
"A hero is someone who rebels or seems to rebel against the facts of existence and seems to conquer them. Obviously that can only work at moments. It can't be a lasting thing. That's not saying that people shouldn't keep trying to rebel against the facts of existence. Someday, who knows, we might conquer death, disease and war.â€....Jim Morrison..

"I think of a hero as someone who understands the degree of responsibility that comes with his freedom." ....Bob Dylan..
