activity

During our journalism class our professor made an activity for us , to write down what first comes into our mind. Example what is the best birthday gift you ever had or what are you pessimistic about. The activity was a little hard becuase i had base it on my experinces everyday of my life and during the special occasions and not everything is constant in my mind. It was fun because i had to reminisce about my family and friends.

The question that made me realize was what i hate about myself and i answered mood swings.Everyday ay school or at home people around me tend to avoid me or i will not talk to them because i am very masungit. When i am in a bad shape or woke up at the wrong side of the bed i tend to keep quiet and not talk to anyone. While some undertands me because they know what i am like. In the end i realized that it is not about understanding me but it is how i treat people i know that i have to change because i know that in the end they might ignore me permanently and not be my friend anymore. I have to control my feelings. I have to change not just for me but for the others as well.

UP !

The movie UP by Disney/Pixar is a story for all ages. It is an adventurous, exciting movie that you will forget it’s a cartoon but an illusion of exploration. Disney has always been a good example. They make an exciting film for children who in the end they get appropriate manners, feelings towards life, and the way of thinking. Every person who watches gets the chance to know the meaning of life.
I watched UP with a friend of mine and we enjoyed it so much because it’s fun and exciting. The movie had few characters yet it fulfilled the audience with amusing voyage. The movie never stopped to entertain and surprise us. What I saw in the internet were the directors of UP Pete Docter and Jonas Rivera on how they easily came up with the story.
The movie taught us to be true and believe in ourselves. We shall not allow anyone to destroy our dreams and aspirations in life. We must continue to enjoy and make our dreams come true in our own little way. We must learn to be patient and allow people in our life to enter and be part of it. As to movie UP Carl Fredicksen never gave up and continued his journey for his loving wife to show that dreams still do come true even at an old age. Russell helped him fulfil his dream and in the end they both learned to understand each other and no letting down and to keep their promises to one another. It helped children, teenagers, and adults to optimistic and be awake to appreciate life has to offer. One of the best movies to watch of all time.
