A Classic Love story

-
The Nurse- Edith Shain sure felt butterflies in her tummy back when this lovable soldier gave her a kiss when the World war II ended. This Kiss was supposed to be a sign of love between the two of them, and the  the two of them only. They never imagined that the magic of this kiss will last a century and will be part of our History.

Letters to Juliet featured this Historical image when Amanda Seyfried (Sophie) played as a Fact finder and researcher for a prominent Paper in New york. She was a hopeless romantic girl who was engaged to someone she's not sure if she's in love with. They went to Verona, Italy to rekindle the love they had for each other only to find out that the love of her life now is not the one she ever wanted in the first place. Sophie bumped into a group of writers  named "secretaries of Juliet" who writes and answers letters written for Juliet from women all over the world who were seeking for answers regarding matters of the heart. She participated with them in order to pursue her passion for writing and was lucky enough to see a letter hidden behind walls of the building where the play "Romeo and Juliet" is constantly being re-enacted while the broken hearted maidens write their own matters of the heart. This letter came from Vanessa Redgrave (Claire) but was written 50 years ago. Because of Sophie's advise to Claire, an old-aged woman dropped by the office one day seeking assistance from Sophie to accompany her through the journey of finding her forgotten love. This journey of Love was intended for Claire, and to Sophie's surprise, became her journey too.


Have a sneak peak of this movie, here

Some of the lines I loved on this movie: 

I don’t know what a love like that feels like… a love to leave loved ones for, a love to cross oceans for… but I’d like to believe if I ever felt it. I’d have the courage to seize it. I hope you had the courage to seize it, Claire. And if you didn’t, I hope one day that you will.

Doubt thou stars are fire
Doubt that the sun doth move
Doubt truth be a liar
But never doubt I love


‘What’ and ‘if’ two words as nonthreatening as words come. But put them together side-by-side and they have the power to haunt you for the rest of your life: ‘What if?’…”

For 4 years, my Alma Matter was and still is the University of Santo Tomas .  There are a lot of reasons to be proud of this University. The Character built within each and every students who enroll in this campus are remarkable and I can say made us, Filipinos proud of our race.  For Centuries (400 years), Catholic catechism has been the basis of the University's teachings. When I took up Fine arts back in 2002, there are less lectures and more on hands-on drawings and labs. This means lesser class hours for Christian living lessons *sigh. Less time, but unforgettable teachings. How can I forget my professor, Mr. Cura? He was 65 years old back then, but still he was teaching. He was a real emblem of PASSION, PATIENCE. He was a real inspiration for everyone whom he shared his life with. Apart from the great teachings and lectures I had with Mr. Cura, the University's annual activities being held like "PASKUHAN" is one of the reasons why I dearly love my Alma Matte

August 7, 2010 (Saturday) Lesson #1 Each and every patient is unique. They might have the same symptoms, but they have different causes. The doctors should treat each patient differently, ask questions, and listen. In our case, I told this doctor that my daughter has cough for almost a month now and the doctors including my daughter's pedia heard that her lungs are clear whenever they listen through it. It turned out that my daughter had viral fever which was caused by pneumonitis. If only this gay doctor from the ER last saturday LISTENED. He could have admitted us that day and no need to send us away. Lesson #2 Mothers knows best . It is part of our innate instinct to feel that there's something wrong happening to our loved ones. Indeed, gabby just had a plain HIGH FEVER but who are they to tell us not to have our daughters admitted when we felt there's something wrong. When we believe in something, we have to stand up for it and fight. yes, FIGHT. I have to sound
