Worth Watching

Activity 2
One thing that I really love is watching movies. I really spent a lot on movies because I often watch them on cinemas. Watching a movie on cinema is really different than watching it at home. It gives a different kind of experience specially when watching horror, suspense, thriller, and action films. Sometimes I watched alone, but oftentimes I watched with my friends because it's more fun. I love watching movies because aside from it's entertaining it also serves as a bonding time with my friends. One movie that I watched together with my friends during high school was "The Dark Knight'. The film who starred Christian Bale and the late Heath Ledger.
The film was really good as its trailer. The casting was good, specially having Heath Ledger as joker. I believed it was one of his best performance on a movie, if not the best. Everyone did a great job on that movie. I like the different twist they've done on the story. The action is there as well as the special effects. I really love how Heath Ledger play the role of "Joker", he showed what a villain is. The other actors also did a great job on giving life to their characters. The movie also tells us a lot of things about our society.
On the movie "Batman" was compared to an immovable object and "Joker" to an unstoppable force. How could two opposing force with equal power fight each other? In reality the analogy does exist, but our enemy is our own self. We struggle so hard without winning. We sometimes see our weaknesses as hindrances for us to move forward. So why not used those weaknesses in our advantage? I believe that they are like signs on the road which guide as along the way.
Like watching movie, we should enjoy life but let us not forget the lessons we've learned from it.

Simply the Best

Activity 1
Nothing is constant in this world except change. Even the earth revolves around the sun, as well as we humans walk into this earth. Nobody exactly knows why were here, but one reason I know is in order to live. The hardest thing in living is how we deal with change. It's easy for some while it's hard for others. We don't know what will happen tomorrow or the next day, so we must do our best in everything.
In this life, we often wished to succeed in everything we do and for us to succeed we must set our focus. When we have focus, we exactly know where we're headed to. We should also not hesitate to do things with our best. We must have a courageous heart, for us not to surrender in every trial we may face. There are many things that we need, but for me the most essential is faith. It is because faith enables us to believe that we could do things beyond we imagined and it motivates us to take risk.

It is very important to fulfill the role that we've given with. Such as being a student or a son to our parents. But our duty does not end there. We may not realize it, but we have bigger roles to fulfill. My mission in life is simply to be the best that I can be.
