...kingdom of heaven...

today was generally a happy day. it started off with everyone in hope of having a full day due to the great achievements the performing groups had obtained at the SFY central judging. like what she said, it was an anticipatited announcement. there were speculations that we would be having at least a half day off today. however, it is best to hear the truth for yourself right? true enough, we had a half day off, or rather a three-quarter day off. =)
i watched kingdom of heaven with zh today. initially, i wanted to catch the show because there is my favourite eye-candy acting in the movie as the lead actor. hahaz... this time round, he is in the positive light, unlike the one in troy. what a disappointment! after reading some reviews about the movie, the storyline interested me as well. =) it's a historical event, about having different religions co-exsit together. what's most important is it is a HISTORICAL event. anything about history makes me go crazy. =D
besides drooling over olando bloom, the war made my heart ache. the war started was mainly due to greed, power and frame. can you imagine how many innocent lives had to be lost to satisify one's hunger? the bloodshed, the broken families,... can all these be replaced with power and wealth? so what if you are the master of all masters but you do not find happiness in what you are doing? what's the point of climbing the ladder of power then? to me, staying happy is the most important task i want to complete everyday. =D
not fight for the bricks, the walls. fight for those who live within the walls. i just happened to love this phrase in Balian's war speeches.
you can control the man, but you cannot control the soul. see, it boils down to mental strength again. (self-psycho remember?)
"be brave when you face fear"
