wonderland...

I love all the works created by Tim Burton. And I love to see Johnny Depp's acting, for me he can be anyone in different kinds of movie. Funny movie, serious movie, cartoon, dark movie and other movies. Tim Burton and Johnny Depp are like this dynamic duo. They always come in pair. And of course they can make a really good quality movie. Tim Burton's story combined with Johnny Depp's amazing acting can be this wonderful package that you can't be missed out. I really adore both men.

Tim Burton himself is a really unique person who can really stands out among the crowd. He's an American film director, producer, writer and artist. His famous movies include Edward Scissorhand, The Nightmare Before Christmas, Batman, Sleepy Hollow, Planet of the Apes, Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street, Corpse Bride and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Here you can see that most of his movies were played by Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham Carter.








I've watched all of his movies. My favorites are Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street, Corpse Bride and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. And this morning, I just found out that he will have an upcoming movie of Alice in Wonderland. Oh my God...I really can't wait until the movie comes. Trust me...the movie will be an amazing one. O and one more thing..of course..it will be played by Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham Carter.

You are the BEAUTY...

A good friend of mine send me an e-mail this morning about the beauty of a woman. Now I'm passing it along for all the beautiful women out there. Always remember that you are beautiful, inside and outside. Learn to appreciate yourself so that other people will appreciate you. As beautiful woman, you must be able to bring the best of yourself and let your inner light glow and shine. Glow as bright as you can be so you will be able to share your lights to other women around you. Let them know that you will always give a hand to reach them out, a shoulder to cry on, an ear to listen, a heart to feel and a love to be shared. So, this one is for you...

YOU ARE THE BEAUTY..... BEAUTY IS YOU........

For attractive lips, speak words of kindness.
For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people.
For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry.
For beautiful hair, let a child run his or her fingers through it once a day.
For poise, walk with the knowledge you'll never walk alone.
People, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived,reclaimed, and redeemed; Never throw out anybody.
Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you'll find one at the end of your arm.
As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands:one for helping yourself, the other for helping others.
The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that shecarries, or the way she combs her hair.
The beauty of a woman must be seen in her eyes because that is the doorwayto her heart, the place where love resides.
The beauty of a woman is not in a facial mole, but true beauty in a woman isreflected in her soul.
It is the caring that she lovingly gives, the passion that she shows,and the beauty of a woman, with passing years, only grows!

Colors of the room

Bright and bold colors to brighten up your mood when you're at home. I know for sure that one day if I have my own house, I will have at least one room that I will decorate with colorful and bright colors. While also having at least one room that I decorate with soft and calm colors. A colorful living room or TV/Media room would be nice and the softer one will be appropriate for reading room. That's how I imagine the interior design of my house. And how about the kitchen? For sure it will be black and white. Simple and classic colors for kitchen.

Optimist or Pessimist?

Last time I had a small talk with someone about people who often bring negative thoughts in their life. Not negative acts in a sense that they're doing something bad but more in a way that the person always have a pessimistic thought about the things we want to do or we have done. I can relate that more into their behaviour and their pessimistic way of viewing and living their life. I was not gossiping about the person who often bring pessimistic influence but I was just trying to figure out the reason why such a person can have that negative thought about almost everything. It really is an opposite side of me.
I always see something in a positive way and try as hard as I can to always be on the optimistic side of life. I guess it's important that you always be able to be an optimist in everything that you do, because in that way, you will be able to encourage yourself to do things better. And you will also have faith that you can do anything that you wish to do. Don't you think it's good? I do. I believe that optimistic and pessimistic are really contagious. I suggest that we should be surrounded with those who have optimistic thought in their mind, while on the other hand we must be able to help our 'pessimistic' friends and drag them out of their negative thoughts so they will also have courage and belief that they can do it.

I have been giving some thought lately to optimism and pessimism. Basically, these are attitudes. Attitudes that shape and formulate our entire existence. I mean, have you ever met a happy pessimist? Of course not.
In short, our optimism or pessimism is this:
- The way we interpret the past
- The way we experience and view the present
- The way we imagine the future

Have you given much thought about how your attitude, whether you are an optimist or a pessimist, affects you business, organization or school? Have you thought about how it affects you personally? And what about the team you are a part of?

What is optimism? It is a belief that things in our past were good for us, even if that means they were hard and taught us lessons. It is also the belief that things will be better in the future. Here are some contrasts between optimism and pessimism and how they affect us:
  • Optimism breathes life into you each day
  • Pessimism drains you
  • Optimism helps you to take needed risks
  • Pessimism plays it safe and never accomplishes much
  • Optimism improves those around you
  • Pessimism drags them down
  • Optimism inspires people to great heights
  • Pessimism deflates people to new lows
There is only one way that optimism and pessimism are the same and that is that they are both self-fulfilling. If you are an optimist, you will generally find that good things happen to you. And if you are a pessimist, you will find yourself in the not-so-good situations more often than not. So can a person just become an optimist? Yes! We can choose to look at the world any way we want to. We can choose to look at the world and think the worst, or we can tell ourselves the good things about each situation. As you find yourself looking at your enterprise, begin to view it through the eyes of an optimist, and you will reap the rewards listed above, and so will the people around you.

There are tremendous benefits to being an optimist, as stated above. But there are some pessimists out there who will say, “But that isn’t realistic.” I say “Who cares?” If things go awry, at least I have spent my time beforehand enjoying life and not worrying about it. And, being an optimist, I would view the “negative” situation as an opportunity to grow and learn. So I can even look forward to my failures because they will be stepping stones, and learning tools to be applied to my future success. Have you ever met a successful pessimist? Become an optimist and see your world change before your eyes!

Picture perfect..

It's been a while since I last check out Perfect Bound, an art and design blog. I always love to see pictures they've captured. Each picture has its own theme and what I like the most is the way the picture is taken, which is from above it. Just like a view from the top. Here are some of the newest pictures.
