i would like to add on, since the blog is not due yet.
(:
i'm going to share with everyone my dream man :D
it's from a novel, by Sophie Kinsella.
it's pretty much a girls' movie, book. i can say that of a 14-row cinema, at least 8o% are all female audiences. :D

that's the link to her official website.
Confessions Of A Shopaholic! ;)
this is about a lady, Rebecca Bloomwood (Isla Fisher). who is an avid fan of latest fashions. she enjoys shopping, and believed that shopping is the only one thing that she can do to make the world a bette place. she likes colors, matching of colors is not a problem for her!
she spends more than she could afford to. and her current job soon became an ex-job, because the company folded. and she, always wanted to work in a high-end fashion magazine company, Alette. she went for the interview, and got rejected at the security counter. however, on second thoughts, the security man recommends her another job offer, which is then believed to be a stepping stone to the big magazine company. the job post is also, JOURNALIST of FINANCIAL ADVISES.
pre-interview, she met this man, who turned out to be her future boss, also her future lover, also the man of my dream :D
HUGH DANCY, he's a very talented british actor. who's so charming, who speaks Prada, Occasionally. :D
haha. he's so handsomely charming.
rebecca lied to the people around her because she's not sure how to deal with it, and because of her huge sum of debt that she owed the bank. she's also frank and straight forward with her opinions and comments, and that's probably what Luke Brandon (Hugh Dancy) likes about her. she's special in a sense where most are afraid to voice out. it's a cultural norm within them to speak with utmost respect to the clients, especially when they are people from all over the world.
i like the way he looks at people, especially towards Rebecca, when he stares right in to her eyes saying that she is his girlfriend, i think audiences in the whole cinema just melts when he said that with his expressions :D
Rebecca loves shopping, and no matter how heavy her debt is, she could not resist grand sales temptations. She frowns and shows a little frustrates when she keep getting phone calls from her boss, Luke, where she had promised to submit a column before 3pm when she's busy queueing up for a massive sale at 2pm.
Rebecca Bloomwood expresses a lot of her emotions with screams and joy, widening of eyes and mouth often shows that she's excited with the sales and all.
she flusters a lot when she's panicky, which often get her into small troubles and embarrassment but often salvaged with the help of Luke. that's also when she fell deeply in love with him.
he's cute too. little wonder why Rebecca has a love rival in the show, a spidery long legs woman.
good things will come to an end, Rebecca Bloomwood sold all her fashion products to repay her debt she had owed, and never to shop at the sight of new bags. She even declined the job offered to her to work with Alette magazine company. She discovered that she could overcome all these because shopping is not everything in her life. it somehow ruined her life in the past where her spending has no limits.
Luke Brandon loves her, and also made her realized that not all good things in life come with a price tag, like the love of her life, her friendship and kinship. He's also happy for her that she had managed to withdraw herself from shopping sprees. and nevertheless, he loves and appreciates her for who she really is.
Luke set up his own company, BRANDON. and Becky, Rebecca, also known as the Green Scarf Woman who advises people financially, helps Luke with his company.
and they both lived happily, ever after...
FINAL POST
MARLEY & ME
here we start!
with our ending. (:
an end is always the start of a new beginning :D
songs, lyrics, videos, movies, influencing the young to innovate ideas and compete for fame, and popularity. do you think this is good? HAHA. make the young and new strive. what's bad? (:
Marley & Me.
very emotional... but it's heartfelt love, of an intended master and mistress and a clearance puppy.
(:
i like it very much especially when it's starring OWEN WILSON, and JENNIFER ANISTON! =D
the start of it is kind of classic. where the woman in the house wants kids but the man, John, is not prepared for its coming. thus, in order to give in to his love, he confessed his fear to his friend and fellow journalist Sebestian, who comes up with the perfect solution of getting a dog for Jenny.
then came Marley.
people around the neighborhood are all afraid of Marley. he is as if the world's worst dog, and also a best to the Grogans' family. who sees them through ups and downs of a family life. however, he's also the one who brings out the best in them. in overcoming problems to growing together as a family.
in this show, Owen Wilson's real parents also played as his parents in the show itself.
i cried especially much at the ending, where Marley has to be put to sleep. because he's too old for any form of repair. too weak to withstand more pains. i like how the dog acts in the show.
it's not much about the puppy initially, it's how it supports a relationship between Jenn and John.
it's pretty hard to communicate nicely to an animal, and worse, this is a neurotic creature of the universe. even the children also communicates to Marley nonverbally most of the time. there is one scene, about two nights before Marley passed away, Patrick pats and hugs him without saying anything and said that the dog knows what he has to say and feel towards him. even as i'm typing it down makes me want to cry. i'm feeling it as if i have a pet like Marley.
the scene and the mood it sets for us, with the background music and everything just make people feel as if they are part of the show, and it really touches people's heart.
this is totally like a child to them, because no matter how naughty it gets, how uncontrollable the dog is, they still loved him, cared for him, very much like any parent out there.
many parts of the show do not communicate to the audience directly as well, because they fast-forwarded the daily life that John had used to include into his column everyday. and most of it, describes how the family overcome problems with Marley, and through flashes of scenes, instead of him telling us directly.
i like this movie very much, partly because of Jennifer Aniston, partly because of Owen Wilson, and more likely how it relates to my life and the people around me.
I LOVE MARLEY (:
to those who have not watch this movie, you should really catch it soon. it's real and it's entertaining. and it also teaches us how to breed our love wisely.!
definitely not by getting rid of anything that seemed to get into our way.
SHARE LOVE! SPREAD lOVE (:
p.s. Marley in this show is a very good actor! ;)
do all people just get engaged to each other, then they learnt to manage their relationship, and eventually ending it with dissolution to the relationship..?
i am lacking down a little in studies already. haven been doing really well in some modules. sometimes, i feel that the life that i am leading seems a little aimless. sometimes time, just seemed to have gone past within our view.
i would sometimes spend time day dream of getting styled and famous just like Fabulousity, Kimora, Life in the Fab Lane.
i often envy people like her and especially her two daughters. Aoki Lee and Ming Lee. they are so fortunate to be born with a very shiny golden spoon. i on the television programs and i see them running their own little shows.
imagine having your own fashion show at the tender age of 6 or 8! how awesome would it be like. pretty awesome yeah... :D
actually i think some of these shows may be some ways beneficial towards an audience when he or she inspires to be like someone on reality show telling people about their personal life and make them work hard for it. make themselves known to the world. or maybe just do something that you enjoy.
nevertheless, all reapings shall come with sacrifices. just like relational formation and development. if you want something, you would have to give up another thing in return. imagine yourself making friend with a very rich man, you would sacrifice a lot of time for him so as to build up the relationship you would want to share with him, so that maybe you could reap some wealth out of him. but the time you wasted on him could be used to do many other beneficial acts where may do ourself well, for example, reading a knowledgable book.
however, in this case is your life, and your profession.
we would have close up such as face-to-face interaction, usually with people whom you are working closer with. like intimate relationships, working out trusts between your close friend or someone living under the same roof. this would often breeds closeness as well.
i wish i could make it big out of fashion. or maybe not big, i just want to have a feel of how it is like to be in such bustling profession. to be immersed in flashes and often on the run from paparazzi. where you have a wide network of friends, clients, partners, assistance, and businesses.. however, we all need a good foundation communication skills.
be it relational, or ethical. we have to use the different approaches and contributions towards different footsteps that enter our lives.
i think having a good relationship means forming ties and interest towards what one likes. maybe say a working partner, life partner, or maybe just your work and assignment. to start off with a liking, and be passionate about what you are doing, a leap towards success (:
ALFIE vs. SEX ED
http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/article2233878.ece
URL above is an article of shocking headlines going around the world.
shocking 13-year-old boy,
or rather a dad.
at such a tender age, children of this age should still be
figuring out the meaning of sex rather than putting it into action.
despite the increasing numbers of campaigns and
advertisements about safe sex,
accidents like such still happen.
this particular news managed to get onto many front page of
newspapers around the world.
though media could be a form of influence to the society,
people who misread the intentional
meaning may serve as a bad influence ultimately to
themselves or people around them.
movies, television programs have now become
more liberal in their content wise.
in the past, we often have contents that are restricted
for certain viewers,
such as children whom are under the age of 16 or 18 in
some countries.
in these days now, we are seeing more and more contents
that are considered
explicit for some adults or parents.
however, i feel that it should not serve as a bad influence
or should not be misinterpreted to the audience.
likewise, parents should try to spend more time with
their children and to understand
their perceptions towards media influences,
and not restrict them to the media.
guide them is they are unsure of the intended meaning from media.
advocate them with the right knowledge to deal with such matters.
this way, they will be more self conscious as they are able to
view matters from different angle.
as media is a very powerful form of communication,
parents and adults should make use of it wisely.
Mr DotCom & nonverbal communications
i just realized that the meaning of ".com" (dot-com) used on the internet. it's actually some domain for url. and there's the second-level domain entry. For example; Australia (.com.aud), Korea (.co.kr), Morocco (.co.ma)...etc.
it's needed so that people are able to register themselves online and set up their personal or area urls.
ok, i know it's kind of random to start off with Mr Dot Com. but well, without all these we would not have the chance to learn through the internet space...
THE LATEST!
THE 51ST GRAMMY AWARDS
-I'm Yours Jason Mraz, songwriter (Jason Mraz) Track from: We Sing. We Dance. We Steal Things. [Atlantic; Publisher: Goo Eyed Music]
He won the Song of the year for "I'm Yours" !
SO GREAT. don't you people think that he is very cute.
i like that song very much as well. so, i'm happy for him. (:
actually, communication exist EVERYsingleWHERE!
especially when nonverbal communication is part of our studies. we uses our emotions to display our pleasures or displeasures.
our affections and understanding towards a matter is shown on one's face clearly unless he or she can hide it very well.
upon a person's first impression, i would see whether if he or she is a decent or neat person. i don't like people who are dirty and lazy especially their first impression for me. these kind of people will definitely spoil my day.
we might be communicating nonverbally without us knowing it clearly. like a stare from a person's eye towards an action or an object might mean that the person want the looker to look or stare at the same thing the person is staring at. like directing another person's focus to something else.
as learnt in class, it is an receiver-oriented characteristic of nonverbal communication. without a response from receiver it will break the communication line of intended messages.
actually this is quite a natural thing that we will master it even without teaching.
for example, an infant, will get terrified if someone much older than him stares into his eyes fiercely. so the action is kind of mutual, you start off by doing something and someone else would react to it.
ANNE HATHAWAY; BRIDE WARS
Anne Hathaway, main cast for "Princess Diaries", she is now coming back with three new movies.
1. Bride Wars
2. Rachel getting married
3. Passengers
I admire her incredible ability in acting all sorts of roles, from an unpopular geek in high school to an IT girl, with rising sense of fashion through the devilishly devil who wears Prada. Wars between best of friends and being a young therapist in a thriller, "Passengers".
Her first major role came in 1999, in a television series "Get Real", and gained popularity and recognition from her role in "Princess Diaries"(2001). Her journey towards being an only heir to her Prince dad began when this young girl realizes that she's a member of royalty.
growing up with her sixteenth birthday decision of becoming a true royal Princess to what we are seeing today, a grown up bride-to-be in...
B R I D E W A R S .
SYNOPSIS
Liv (Kate Hudson) and Emma (Anne Hathaway) are best friends who since childhood have planned every detail of their respective weddings. At the top of their bridal “must have” list: a ceremony at New York’s ultimate bridal destination, the Plaza Hotel.
Now, at age 26, they’re both about to get married; they’re about to realize their dreams; and they’re about to live happily ever after.
Or maybe not…
When a clerical error causes a clash in wedding dates – they’re now to be married on the same date! – Liv, Emma and their lifelong friendship are put to the ultimate test. Liv, a successful lawyer who is used to getting what she wants, including the perfect job and the perfect man, won’t settle for anything less than the perfect wedding she has dreamed of for years. Emma, a schoolteacher who has always been good at taking care of others, but not so much in looking after herself, discovers her inner Bridezilla and comes out swinging when her own dream wedding is imperiled.
Now, the two best friends who’d do anything for each other, find themselves in a no-holds-barred, take-no-prisoners struggle that threatens to erupt into all-out war.
and special moves that will get your opponents out of the game...
I've watched this movie two days back. very nice show. Love how it depicts a very strong relationship between the two girls and how they've managed to build up their bond since young as two little girls share the same dreams of getting married at the same nice place. furthermore, despite their arguments where they really hated each other terrible, they managed to be back together as good friends again. ! I liked the way Anne Hathaway scolds people in the movie, getting upset and all, and i think she really has what it takes to be in the entertainment circle. Without her, Diaries may be without a perfect Princess and Brides without heat in the head of war.
and most of all, Anne Hathaway presenting all with her trademark smile and a new beginnings with "Passengers".
i think she should be quite a versatile woman. as she could act as if the role that she's playing in real life. i wouldn't be able to handle all sorts of emotions like what most celebrity did. :)
love AnneH. :D
nut thinks ever seemzed mall cooz.
HAHA. the week's ending and so is the deadline of post this week nearing!
NEIL HOLBERT is my marketing lecturer.
he's 78 years old if i remembered correctly. he's one funny wise old man, who's rather relevant then irrelevant. you may not get the joke unless you're in my marketing class.
btw, what i learnt through marketing associates quite a bit to the communication studies i am taking right now. like how we try to market or to promote a business or an item is to think of the best way to catch people's attention so as to convey a message we want to, to consumers. at the same time also understanding the needs and wants of the market. so isn't it a very right time for me to take up these two modules? where both complements each other from point to point. (:
like as said in one of the article as mentioned in marketing class today, if a band were to try to promote a name for themselves from nothing they would print out flyers, and posters, etc...
but that was in the past. where it is costly, time consuming, and not very effective as people slowly lost interest in reading a flyer anymore.
therefore, comes the fad, of facebook, myspace, hi5, etc...
all these are very popular among the young to old i can say. because i know of people of age at least 45, who uses facebook to interact, make friends, or basically any form of cyber communications online.
i was told that more and more individuals who created their own songs are posting them online for people to listen or even download their creations as a form of promotion to the public.
as you know people communicate with one another.
and just among your circle of friends, you will realize that new promotions or the latest news would be part of your discussion. and this is where news travel from mouth to mouth and ear to ear...
that's how great the world can be, with us humans revolving and growing around the planet.
