There is this tree in front of our apartment, a big gorgeous tree with pink flowers which blossom every other month. I love to watch this tree grow, grow right into my balcony where I could easily touch it. I love the way it sways when the wind blows, how its leaves wave at me in the morning when i wake up, how after a rain when I go out into my balcony the leaves shiver and I am showered with a perfect drizzel. I love the feel of fresh oxygen rushing into my lungs when I sit out with my book. Trees are special save them, this one infront of my house is my friend make one yourself. Plant a tree, watch it grow, feel its love, Save the planet...

You never fully dressed without a SMILE

A smile is something beautiful, something special, something warm, something caring, and is the mirror of your heart.

A person who smiles pleasantly is the best person to spend time with. We see many people smiling artificially, officially, mechanically and ofcource periodically but what good is it? A smile should be true and you get that true smile when you have a beautiful and careing heart. Keeping your mind clean of all unnecessary thoughts brings you closer to that smile. A smile is all a baby needs to make her the most lovable thing in your life. That innocent and beautiful is the only thing that is true in this world, a warm feeling that touches everyone who feels it coming at them. All the make-up you put on yourself could not attract someone as with a sweet smile, you cannot practice a sweet smile, we cannot immitate a capturing smile, That smile that radiates in everyone comes when we radiate ourself. Feel good about yourself, never feel bad about yourself cause everyone is special, - I knoe people hear it all the time but its true now as it was true the first time it was said. The uniqueness you have is the thing that makes you different from others and that is the ONLY thing that makes you special. Knowing you are special makes you happy and that would allow you to glow from inside and brings out the smile that you wear as the most bright, beautiful, and sparkling ornament. So remember you are never fully dressed without a beautiful and heartful smile.

Prince of Persia - sands of time

Imagine a brave young boy, who dares to face the soldiers to rescue his friend. That would be our hero in making, Dastaans gains the kings favor and becomes one of the Princes of Persia. His courage and strength gains him the title 'Lion of Persia' in the seige against the Holy city of Alamut. The city of Alamut has a secret that is closely guarded by its princess, Tamina. No prizes for guessing what it is...
Dastaan get hold of 'a' dagger which is 'the' dagger the princess sent away with one of her guards. Tus is Dastaan's half brother and the heir to the throne wishes to marry Tamina princess of Alamut and to have the city as his ally, though Tamina refuses at first, she accepts the proposal after seeing the dagger with Dastaan. But the King is not happy with his son Tus for raiding the holy city, and he offers Dastaan to marry the princess. At that very moment the King burns because of he effect of the poisoned cloack which Tus gave Dastaan to offer to the King. Well the princess helps Dastaan escape... Yeah there is a surprice.
Well the princess has her own agenda - to kill Dastaan and get back the dagger but during her attemt to kill him Dastaan accidentally finds out the true nature of the dagger and has an out of body experience. He thinks Tus was after the dagger all along and had framed him, so he plans to show the dagger and its powers to Nizam, the brother of the deceased king. Tamina explains that - any sand - won't do, only special sand in the catacombs of Alamut can be used to turn back time. They head back to Persia but have a run in with the merchant-bandits who conduct ostrich races to make more money. After escaping from them the prince and princess reach Persia in time for the funeral of the king and here Dastaan finds out that it was Nizam who was to blame for all his problems. (yeah! i knew that when the king died- Tus was not on the poster but Nizam was)

Anyway since Tamina escapes with the dagger Dastaan once again starts to find her this time he wants to get rid of it. Nizam sends the hassasins after them. Once again Dastaan and Tamina finds themselves imprisoned by the bandits, this time Dastaan saves them from the vipers and makes friends of his captors. They try to destroy the dagger by putting it from the place it was made but the hassasins take it anyway. Next is the sand for the dagger, as Nizam and his men, tunnel through the catacombs Dastaan and Tamina try to get the dagger back. The action sequence follows where Prince of Persia, jumps a lot of impossible jumps and finally finds Nizam piercing the crystal that holds the sands of time. He let Tamina fall into the depths to save the world from destruction (pretty heroic don't you think). He travels back in time, to the seige of Alamut and exposes Nizam as a fraud. Tus apologises to Tamina and proposes that Dastaan marry Tamina. Dastaan presents Tamina with the dagger as a wedding gift. She find his lack of interest curious and the sun sets in Persia (and no one ever knows what Dastaan went through after all the heroics).

All-in-all an OK movie. Nothing in the story that you cannot predict. The stunts were totally unreal. I hoped that during the seige of Alamut Dastaan faces some unexpected situations so that we know that Tamina has used the dagger to save her kingdom but failed. Why she would not use such a useful weapon to save her own kingdom is a weakness in the story. Watch this movie with friends for a nice time, but it no Pirates of the Carribian.

I give it a 5/10

Happiness is a choice

Happiness is a choice, its your choice.

You decide if you wanna be happy or not. People tend to blame others for their sorrows or tend to curse fate for their bad luck. But does anyone know that happiness what within you. It is not something that can be obtained from any outside source, it's always within you. People may give you gifts to make you happy but the choice to be happy is a gift you give yourself. The feeling of happiness is a blessing you don't need expensive gifts for that all you need is a positive mind. Stop thinking negative of everything around you, stop thinking the world is out to get you (like it has nothing better to do), stop thinking of yourself and think of others, when something sad happens find your happy place. Everyone has a happy place, a happiest moment in their lives that makes them all fuzzy and warm inside. Find that place and always try to make more of those.

There are two kinds of people in the world, people who go on a vacation and fuss about bad weather, bad hotel service, long distances of walk but there are those kind of people who think of this weather to be their special fortune, a bad hotel does not deter them cause they are going to enjoy the outdoors, and long walks means to be able to spend time and talk with their loved one. All you have to do is make yourself happy witht the situation and you definately be happy. Oh! and forgetting the bad memories will help a lot. Some times it's okay to forget.;-)

IRON MAN 2

The movie begins from where the last one ends, when Tony announces that he is 'Iron man'. Watching this telecast in Russia an old man dies and his son, Vango, takes it upon himself to kill Stark and duplicates stark reactor to design himself a fancy new electrical whips. The Iron man's intro in the movies was smashing when he "drops in" at Stark Expo. Stark gets served right after the Expo. A committee is set to discuss about Stark and his weapon. Tony explains that he and the Iron man are not seperate and explains how he alone had achieved world peace with his suit and also exposes his business rival, Hammer's failed attempts to build an army of Iron men for "the US military". Though Tony is his usual arrogant self, there is somthing that is bothering him. The battery core is slowly intoxicating Tony's blood. As the blood toxication increases Tony becomes more and more self destructive. He appoints Pepper to be the CEO of Stark Enterprises with out telling her why. Hides the fact of his blood toxication from his best friend Rodes and Pepper. Agent Romonaff of 'Shield' replaces pepper as Tony's assistant. When Tony skips a corporate pary to race in a derby he comes face to face with Vango. The action sequence that follows is exciting. Pepper brings Tony his suit and he defeats Vango, Vango tells Stark a few uncomfortable truths about Tony's father. Meanwhile Hammer understands that Vango could replicate Tony's reactor and smuggles him from the prison and asks him to build him a new army. Stark and Rodes get into a fight and Rodes takes off with one of Tony's suits and trades it with Hammer for better weapons for the army, though he removes the reactor befor he hands it over to Hammer. Fury from SHIELD offers Tony his father's old material to cure himself from palladium poisoning and it works. Hammer gets his army and hosts an Expo but Vango has plans of his own. Vango Invites Tony to the Expo and launches the whole army of Iron men on him. But Rodes and Tony defeat them. Pepper get Hammer arrested and he swears vengence so we know who the villan in Iron man 3 is going to be. All in all a good movie with good entertainment value.
I give it a 7/10
