I was so excited when I get to know that there will be a movie on the footage of Michael Jackson's rehearsals to his last concert. I even noted down the date when tickets would go on sale. At first, news were saying tickets are about to be sold out and I was so devastated about it. But I still tried my luck the next time I was in the Gurney Plaza to see whether it was really sold out. The line to the counter was not long as it was at night time. Then when it finally comes to my turn, I was so delighted to know that tickets are still available and I still got to choose good seats. So there it was, 3 tickets happily standing near the computer monitor waiting for the day of showing.
It was a Sunday afternoon when I brought my mom and my small sister to see 'This Is It' by Michael Jackson. My mom is a huge Michael Jackson's fan and so was I. The movie shows how MJ had prepared himself for his concert. Every detail and every aspects were being attended by him personally. MJ was a perfectionist.
It would have been a great concert if MJ was alive. It would have been a great comeback for him. It just saddens me that he didn't get to show the world the concert which he has put all his time, effort and evergy into.
I just don't understand why people only start to appreciate someone when they die. When they are alive, people would always put you down. One mistake and the whole world would know, but what about all the good things that are being done by that someone? So what if MJ is weird? So what if he's from black to white? So what if he has make some mistakes? What about all the good humaritarian works he has done for the world? What about all the charity works he has done? What about all the good messages that are being carried out by his songs that will last a lifetime? So before you start to judge someone, like what MJ said in his song, start by looking at the man in the mirror.
His music, his talent and his legend will live in us forever. He is the greatest entertainer of all time. Rest in peace, King of Pop forever...
Michael Jackson's message to the people was HEAL THE WORLD before it's too late. It starts by all of us. Everyone of us. And to LOVE one another.
Have you found your soul mate? Is he 'THE ONE' for you?
A soul mate is someone who loves you no matter what, who knows you and understands you without you even have to say much, who cherish everything about you, who brings the best out of you, who stands by you through thick and thin, who puts you above all and is basically your very best friend in the whole world.
For those lucky ones who have found their soul mates, good for them and congratulations. But how about for those of us who still haven't and are still searching high and low for their soul mate? Have CUPID forgotten about us? Is there a technique to look for our soul mate? Where is he hiding? Where and how do we look for them? And when we finally found someone, how do we know that he is 'THE ONE'?
Sometimes I see some grandmothers and grandfathers who still holds hands when they go out like they are still in their dating days. It is so touching seeing them still show how they love each other after all the years together. I want that!!! And I'm pretty sure everyone of you out there also want that in your life. How good it is to have someone who still loves you even after you have grown old (with white hair, wrinkles and loose skins)...
Movies such as 'The Notebook', 'The Twilight Sagas' and also the most recent movie 'The Time Traveler's Wife' shows us that true love do exists and there are soul mates for each one of us. Soul mates who would risk themselves for the one they love. Love that would never cease in time.
Therefore, never give up on love. Go out and put yourself out there. Have faith and keep looking for your soul mate. Believe that there is someone out there for everyone of us. Open your heart, love yourself and let love come into your life...
Read Each One Carefully and Think About It for a Second or Two
1. I love you not because of who you are, but because of who I am when I am with you.
2. No man or woman is worth your tears, and the one who is, won't make you cry.
3. Just because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to, doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have.
4. A true friend is someone who reaches for your hand and touches your heart.
5. The worst way to miss someone is to be sitting right beside them knowing you can't have them.
6. Never frown, even when you are sad, because you never know who is falling in love with your smile.
7. To the world you may be one person, but to one person you may be the world.
8. Don't waste your time on a man/woman, who isn't willing to waste their time on you.
9. Maybe God wants us to meet a few wrong people before meeting the right one, so that when we finally meet the person, we will know how to be grateful.
10. Don't cry because it is over, smile because it happened.
11. There's always going to be people that hurt you so what you have to do is keep on trusting and just be more careful about who you trust the next time around.
12. Make yourself a better person and know who you are before you try and know someone else and expect them to know you.
13. Don't try so hard, the best things come when you least expect them to.
REMEMBER : WHATEVER HAPPENS, HAPPENS FOR A REASON.

Being happy is the priority of living,
If u wanna be sad,

But if you ever bring her back damaged again — and I don’t care whose fault it is; I don’t care if she merely trips, or if a meteor falls out of the sky and hits her in the head — if you return her to me in less than the perfect condition that I left her in, you will be running with three legs. Do you understand that, mongrel? (Edward)
14. She is mine. I didn’t say I would fight fair. (Edward)

26. Edward, I know who I can’t live without. (Bella)
Breaking Dawn Quotes
1. When you loved the one who was killing you, it left you no options. How could you run, how could you fight, when doing so would hurt that beloved one? If your life was all you had to give your beloved, how could you not give it? If it was someone you truly loved? (Bella)
2. Sometimes it was so easy to forget that I was kissing a vampire. (Bella)
3. I opened my eyes and found his open, too, staring at my face. It made no sense when he looked at me that way. Like I was the prize rather than the outrageously lucky winner. (Bella)

13. Even you, Jacob Black, cannot hate me as much as I hate myself. (Edward)

16. Did you know that ‘I told you so’ has a brother, Jacob? His name is ‘Shut the hell up.’ (Bella)
17. What was the point of me loving you? What was the point of you loving him? When you die, how is that ever right again? What’s the point to all the pain? Mine, yours, his! You’ll kill him, too, not that I care about that. So what was the point of your twisted love story, in the end? (Jacob)
18. I wish I could explain it to you right so that you would understand. I can’t hurt him any more than I could pick up a gun and shoot you. I love him. (Bella)
19. Why do you always have to love the wrong things, Bella? (Jacob)
20. This isn’t about them. This is about Bella. She has never been the one for you, she had never chosen you, but you continue to destroy your life for her! (Sam)
21. You have the most beautiful voice in the universe. Who wouldn’t love it? (Bella)
22. Why should I let him get away from what he’d done? Wouldn’t it be more fair – more satisfying – to let him live with nothing, nothing at all? (Jacob)
23. He smiled the kind of smile that would have stopped my heart if it were still beating. (Bella)
24. It was like he’d never kissed me – like this was our first kiss. And, in truth, he’d never kissed me this way before. It almost made me feel guilty. Surely I was in breach of the contract. I shouldn’t be allowed to have this, too. (Bella)
25. Bella, you have never been merely pretty. (Edward)
26. What wouldn’t I give to be able to see into your mind for just this one moment. (Edward)

29. We would fight, they would fight, and we would all die. (Bella)
30. What if your trust in me is the reason that we fail? (Bella)
31. Edward took my hand. He knew that he was included. When I said my fate, there was no question that I meant the two of us. We were just halves of the whole. (Bella)

Some websites for the Twilight fans out there… Check this out :-
Firstly, I wanted to say thank you to the writer, Stephenie Meyer, for this wonderful series of stories. I'm not a typical story book reader myself due to the long working hours and also due to my exams which I need to study for. However, this year after my exam I was introduced to read this book in particular and I was like... "okay, why not"... I've heard about these books before from my friends and I didn't know what was the fuss about these book at first... After I started reading the first book "Twilight", I was very impressed by it... then when I got to the 2nd and 3rd book, I was really hooked by then... I couldn't stop reading even stayed up to 5am just to continue the story...
I love the story so much and of course, in particular "Edward Cullen" character... I know many girls go crazy for Edward after reading the book (I was one of them...). Wish you were Bella, don't you??? :) I love how the books describe Edward's character so perfectly... beautiful (this is the word that the book describe him as), very so romantic, loving, caring, understanding and would do anything for the one he loves even if it means to die for her... How protective of him to her and would use any way to keep her safe and not hurting her...
There are so many scenes that I love in the book... the way how Edward expresses his feelings to Bella (so true and so sure of his love for her forever)... all the things he does for her, always being there for her... and of course in particularly the way he proposes to her... so simple yet so full of romance and love for her... I wonder if there is really a soul mate for all of us out there... how I wish there is someone like Edward in the real world... (well... I wouldn't mind if he was a vampire also... hahahaha...). Though the movie "Twilight" is not that good compared to the book, I still watch it as I cannot get enough of Edward... and I would still wait patiently for the next movie "New Moon"... hopefully it gets better (the movie, I mean) and I really hope that Robert Pattinson could really potray Edward's character in the movie...
Well... what can I say... I am truly Edward Cullen's fan... I am a bit frustrated and upset as there is no Edward's version of story in the book... although I get to read Edward's version partially of the first book "Twilight" through the website, I really hope the writer would complete and publish it for those Edward Cullen's fans out there... http://www.stepheniemeyer.com/
Lastly, for those of you who have not read the books, I highly recommend that you read it... You will not regret it, trust me... The best romantic book ever...
This is an article that I came across which I thought is very meaningful... Read on...
People come into your life for a Reason, a Season, or a Lifetime.When you know which one it is for a person, you will know what to do for that person.
When someone is in your life for a REASON, it is usually to meet a need you have expressed. They have come to assist you through a difficulty, to provide you with guidance and support, to aid you physically, emotionally, or spiritually. They may seem like a Godsend, and they are! They are there for the reason you need them to be. Then, without any wrong doing on your part, or at an inconvenient time, this person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an end. Sometimes they die. Sometimes they walk away. Sometimes they act up and force you to take a stand. What we must realize is that our need has been met, our desire fulfilled, their work is done. The prayer you sent up has been answered, and now it is time to move on.
Some people come into your life for a SEASON, because your turn has come to share, grow, or learn. They bring you an experience of peace, or make you laugh. They may teach you something you have never done. They usually give you an unbelievable amount of joy. Believe it! It is real! But, only for a season.
LIFETIME relationships teach you lifetime lessons: things you must build upon in order to have a solid emotional foundation. Your job is to accept the lesson, love the person, and put what you have learned to use in all other relationships and areas of your life. It is said that love is blind but friendship is clairvoyant.
It was 9.30am on 25 June 2009, when my friend told me about the terrible news… I was still sleeping at that time and I was like “Huh? Are you sure?”… Not believing it… then in the instance I switched on my radio and it was all over the radio and then it sets me in that it was really true… radio played his songs throughout the day as a tribute to Michael Jackson … the news really came as a great shock to me and I am pretty sure to everyone else in this world also…
At the age of 50 and just under two months more to his 51st birthday, Michael Jackson died of what it seems to be a cardiac arrest… what really cause the death is still under investigation and most suspected is the drugs… Michael Jackson was also going to make a major come back in his career performing… I saw the last video of his rehearsal and he seems pretty fine and healthy to me with great dance moves… But whatever the reason is, the death of Michael Jackson is truly a lost to the world…
I grew up listening to his songs… I could still remember all my cousins and me sitting in the living hall and watching Michael Jackson performing on TV… my Aunty Soo See especially loves him very much… the dance moves (which we cannot get enough of, especially that move in Smooth Criminal where he bends down so perfectly), the groundbreaking music videos and especially the inspirational songs and messages (about hope in life, earth and goodness in us all) touches everyone’s heart and soul…
It was such a sad day watching the memorial of Michael Jackson on 7 July 2009 at 1am… I stayed up and watched till 4am… tears keep falling from my eyes throughout the whole thing… it was emotional especially when Brooke Shields gave her speech and near the end when Paris Jackson said how much she loves her dad, it was so heart breaking…
It’s always a human nature to look at a person faults and not their contributions… people don’t’ see his legacy and the love, sweet emotions and hope he has designed in his songs and arts… they don’t see the purest of worlds he has created in our hearts and minds and all the contributions and humanitarian works he had made to the world… they don’t see, they don’t feel and they don’t care… all they could think of is preying on the weak and the vulnerable… To keep kicking a man when he is down…
So what if he has had plastic surgery? Which celebrity hasn’t done it? So what if he built a dreamlike play-fantasy ranch called Neverland for himself? It is his dream and his money and the things that he misses out during his childhood cause he had to work instead… the sacrifices that was made for his success… So what if he loves children and loves being surrounded by them? He has always considers himself a child…
Michael, you have given us your life… Your music, your moves, your messages for a better world will live on forever and inspire a million more to take it on from where you left… You are a legend and the most talented and brilliant person and truly a gift from GOD…
You will be forever missed and remembered, Michael Jackson… Rest in peace…
