At the End of Daybreak (Movie)

I saluted because it tempted me to watch. Why the temptation can't resist? The temptation is strong because this movie is a local Malaysian movie and able to win numerous awards overseas. My impression is "whooah, it should be a worthwhile movie"

"Xin Mo" literally means the devil of heart. It is actually the urge or temptation within a person. The movie tried to portray social phenomenons which prominent in this modern era. Rape, Murder, Premarital sex, Lie and others are happens frequently nowadays. Is the moral value deteriorating? Everyone of us regardless of age, race or religion, have the tendency to commit a sin.

It is a pretty philosophical movie, as I presumed. My initial judgment of the movie was it was a waste of my time and money. However, it also boosted my curiosity to discover the hidden meaning of this movie. I believe that movie is not just entertainment, but educational.

Our defense mechanism is denial. Deny what we had done wrong, or deny what is out of our expectation. We cant afford to believe we can commit a sin, or we choose not to believe our close kin or friends might do wrongly too.

Moral value is not theoretical, it supposes to be practical. However, any absolute could become non-absolute after we twisted the argument that side our position. We can argue, but we also should set a rule to follow. Make an absolute within us that make peace and love to the people in community.

Again, think out of the box, is a way for me to deal with philosophy

How to train your dragon (Movie)

If you said it is a waste to watch animation or cartoon in cinema, I will reject your idea. Firstly, most of the animation strongly project good moral ethics or values for the reference of audiences especially children. During the childhood, children ought to differentiate the right and the wrong distinctively, neither grey area nor in between. Value always serves as a guideline for us to oblige, not a compulsory because decision is still lied in the hand of human. This movie secretly intruded my deepen heart. It talked about relationship, a bond between dragon and human. The main character, Hiccup chose to save the night fury (dragon) because he saw the fear from its eye. Even a human, we got attracted or closer with people who are similar to us because we feel we able to understand each other better compared to differences. The flow of movie discussed the process of rejection, acceptance, understand and devotion in a relationship. When we are just a stranger for each other, we are re

Handmade ART

Handmade is one of my interest since young. I love art which includes drawing, coloring, making cards and etc. I used to make cards for my friends during secondary school times. Now, I seldom did due to lack of time. It takes time to complete an art work. Thus, I only do when I am free. After reading other people blog, I felt like putting my handmade artwork in my blog..just want to reflect my memory.. Too bad, I did not take photos of my art piece last time. I only left 2 with me..So..have a look.. "Lion" - bookmark Underwater world

Am I supposed to conform?

Conform to the rules because you have no choice over it. You conform, because you believe in it. For example, bible, quran or Buddhist book. Religious people are practicing those rules and might apply it into real life situation. What if you are conform to it due to the other restriction? Today I went to one of the universities in Malaysia. Majority of students are Islamic students. I am not allowed to enter due to my dress code. I wore decently, with a pant which length almost to the ankle. I had been rejected to enter the library because their rule is your dress code must be more than ankle. I respect your dress code. But, It isn't a bit unreasonable to just stop me from entering. I did not know about the dress code before that. At least, give us a chance. We came from so far just want to get journals out from your library, why can't the person talked or told us nicely? What is the purpose you divide the seat far away from male to female. People are not following. What if you
