Proof of lies..

Check this out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2oYGmHTcPnc&eurl= (an edited video actually,but it may be thier true reactions behind the glorius words in front od the press people!)

It’s regarding the israel/hezbollah conflict which many say a victory for hezbollah as they resisted the israeli offensive for more than a month.The look on thier faces is very funny,i really smell thier fears of attacking iran…hahaha

Filming the music.

 

Well,that would be the best thing for me.I love movies and music very much,and that’s 2 more reasons not to give up hopes in this cruel,wild world..hahaha.Recently,i aquired a dvd of Stephen Herek’s film “mr. holland’s opus” which stars the oscar winning actor richard dreyfuss(was nominated again for best actor in this film but lost to nicolas cage for leaving las vegas).As the movie goes on,the story is quite predictable yet still very interesting as the character is finding his purpose and his music.Near-ending scenes are unforgettable.To me its not good as milos forman’s amadeus or bernard rose’s immortal beloved(for me the two masterpeices in this category).I can compare it to the chorus which is probably in the same level of film-making with mr. holland’s opus.Simple execution,dramatic powerful acting and a good plot.It will leave you teary eyed yet on a happy note.haha.The movie’s music is also great done by the late micheal kamen.

A really worthy movie for your time!

Lucky (first) Strike!

Well,the hondaf1 team’s former cigarette sponsor  should be a good title because Jenson Button gained his first ever win on his 113th race of his career at the rain drenched hungarian grand prix(Sunday).The new HondaF1 works team is very glad for its first ever win this year bringing up their standings to further challenge the other front runners for the championship.Teammate Rubens Barrichello also snatched some points for his 4th place finish..I hope jenson would be the next Nigel Mansell of f1.Congrats to the drivers and the honda team,keep the wins coming!hahaha





Someday,i will watch a live f1 race,visit the team’s garages,meet the drivers and have a test drive?hahaha(Dreaming).

of thoughts..

August 6, 2006



Its been a while..A lot of developments going on.A lot of restless nights though its very much enjoyable.haha.Its getting very clear what should i pursue for the rest of my life.

On the lighter side(well atleast for me),im much interested in the middle east conflict.Watching Cnn and BBC always excites me.Again the battle going on with israel and hezbollah is a muslim-christian war.Its Russian weapons vs. American weapons.Its Russian black market business vs. the obvious war business of US.Same old,same old..It’s very intriguing how this will end or how this war will expand(Iran or syria).Just my views.hehe.And oh,if anyone needs a photographer to shoot for israel,iraq or lebanon.Just give me 2 dslrs with wireless transfers,shock proof portable hard drives,a macbook pro,a bagful of lenses and a plane ticket.haha.


I think its very enjoyable to dodge bullets,cover for bombs and rockets with you handling a gun of vision and experiencing a war. The benefit is telling the stories,showing your photos and share experiences afterwards.that is if you are still alive to do so.hehe
