Amazing! Who knew you could find pictures like that?

Plus, I think the title suits it very well, don't you think?

Reminds me of the TV series 'Heroes'... You know, the whole eclipse thing.

Disney Movie Sequels

I'm sure you people reading this have watched at least one Disney movie. But do you notice that some of the old movie (eg. Cinderella, Mulan) have sequels?

That's not all. I'm sure some of you have noticed that the main story of the sequels involves another character being paired off with someone new. Again and again, someone's getting married or going out together. That's altogether a lot of marriages. Seriously, the weddings they must be having.

Another thing I noticed is that the pictures are starting to seem a little pasted on, if you know what I mean. You know, as if they are cut out and then pasted on with glue or something. The outlines are too dark and so it gives the show that look. You try it. Compare it with the first movie and see.

Other than that, the shows and songs are still entertaining. Something to look forward to.

...

Come to think of it... maybe it was the first movies instead...?

The Colour Pink

Throughout the times, alongside with the facts that 'humans are the smartest animals on the planet' and the fact that 'humans ARE animals'... wait a sec, not that generalised...

Well, basically, the colour pink is often associated with girls... red, sometimes too... and the colour blue with boys. Why is this so? I mean, they're all just colours. Tones, shades, whatever you want to call it; it's all the same, really.

If you DO need proof that girls are 'more inclined' towards pink, think about this:

-Bathrooms are sometimes pink/red or blue depending on gender. (Door signs sometimes, the most common type is the colour of the walls in the bathrooms.)

-The stereotypical girl, 'Barbie', is pink (By this, I mean that everything about her is pink - the clothes; the makeup; heck, even the packaging is pink. Have you ever seen the toy stores with shelves full of 'Barbie' dolls? It looks like a pink paint bomb went off in that aisle! PINK EVERYWHERE!!!)

Come to think of it, 'Barbie' dolls also promote 'fashions', along with the more recent 'Bratz' dolls, etc. Very effective too. I mean, how many little girls knew about makeup, fashion, even about s**!

It's actually kinda depressing, the way children are maturing so fast.

Anyway... what else to put in this list... let me see, let me see...

-Girls are always said to like pink... if any boys like the colour pink, then they are automatically 'sissies', so to speak. (This is kinda unfair, seeing as some boys DO, in fact, like the colour pink. I should know, I've met some.)

Do you notice that 'tomboy-ish' girls happen to like dark colours, like black, dark blue, etc? Weird.

Erm... can't think of anymore for the time being. So, to end this: What do you think about this? Is pink really a girl's colour?

Anime

How many of you people reading this watch anime? Or have even heard of it? Right now, I'm going to tell you about some that I have heard of or watched before.

Firstly, anime is a bunch of cartoons made by the Japanese. But it's not just for kids. There are some anime for adults only and some for both too. There are a whole range of different topics and storylines for people to follow.

Another question you may be asking is what is the difference between anime and other cartoons? Well, say you are watching a cartoon that's not very realistic, say it has people and animals doing impossible stunts or something like that. That would probably not be an anime.

Anime charaters tend to have those big eyes and as someone once told me: "not dressed enough". Other than that, they have this different 'feel' from the other cartoons. They have these funny expressions sometimes; like if they are embarrassed they have this teardrop behind their heads. It really adds some humour to an otherwise weird story.

Some animes that are kind of famous are:

- Pokemon: Pocket Monsters. Ash Ketchem (main character) and his group of friends travelling with their Pokemon and battling gym members for badges.

-Digimon: Digital Monsters. It came out a few years before Pokemon, though some people think otherwise. A group of kids are on a camp when they are suddenly transported to a parallel digital world filled with monsters. They team up with some of the digimon to try and get home. This anime has 4 series.

- Naruto: The main character, Naruto, and his friends Sakura and Sasuke are ninjas in training. Before this, Naruto wasn't treated very nicely by the villagers in his village because the former leader sealed a fox demon into Naruto's body and whenever something bad happened, for example the crops weren't good or anything like that, the villagers would all blame it on Naruto because they thought he was the fox demon giving them bad luck. There's more than one story in this and you will have to watch to find out.

- Inuyasha: A schoolgirl from modern day Japan is somehow sent back to the Feudal Age, where there are demons all looking for something called the Shikon Jewel. At the beginning of the story, she finds out that she is the reincarnation of a priestess who guarded the Shikon Jewel. In fact the same priestess who told her followers to burn her with it to keep it safe from the wrong people. She also finds out that the Shikon Jewel is in her own body when a demon cuts her and it falls out. It breaks and now she has to find all the pieces before the bad guys do. With the help of the priestess' half-demon husband (ignore that part if you are going to watch this anime) and a bunch of others she starts on her journey.

- Yu-Gi-Oh: Yugi has a puzzle which has a spirit of a game king in it. This spirit helps Yugi in all his game challenges. The story starts when Yugi's grandfather loses a game of cards to the world champion Kaiba. Yugi challenges Kaiba and wins. Then, he is challenged by the inventor of the game Pegasus and loses so Pegasus steals Yugi's grandfather's soul and tells Yugi that if he wants to see his grandfather again, he has to join the Duelling Kingdom competition and win, even against Pegasus himself. So, Yugi, with a group of devoted friends, goes to the competition. And that's when things get interesting.

These are just some of many different anime. I hope you enjoy them.

This is a picture I found on the internet showing examples of anime. The bottom left-hand corner is showing two different types of Pokemon while the top right-hand corner is showing Kero, a character from Cardcaptor Sakura...

Not sure what the other two are though... if anyone can tell me what they are, don't hesitate!!!

Well, it's a joke.

Black and White

Whenever we think of these two colours, people immediately assume that black stands for evil while white represents all that is good and pure. Well, can someone tell me, what exactly do you mean by good?

I mean, say there's a murderer who did something really bad (I wonder what, maybe a murder?) and he was sentenced to death by execution or something. Well, does that make the people who did that any better? I mean, sure the murderer might have killed someone but does that make what the judge and the executioner and all those other people good? Because, if you think about it, they are killing someone too.

But that's not all. Some people use religion as a excuse to go killing others. Like erm... some people in history. They ruthlessly slaughtered people and what was their excuse? Oh, they were trying to change their beliefs, that's all. Still, it didn't explain why they tortured them; I mean, if you are trying to change people's beliefs, you wouldn't go cutting off their limbs and stuff, you'd just baptise them (if you were Christian) and go home. Wouldn't you?

Well, white could stand for innocence and all that, but white could also mean many different colours all together ( for example, take the Lord of the Rings: remember Saruman?) . So, if white was a lot of colours squashed together, could that mean that good is a whole lot of supposedly good acts combined?(Look at the examples above if you don't understand.)

P.S.: Some of these things mentioned are not meant to offence.
P.P.S.: Some things were read in places and are meant to plagurise

Seven Reasons Why I Don't Want To Be A Rock Star

1. Rock stars rock. I don't.
2. They seem crazy. (No offence). I do too, but I'm not about to tell the world about it.
3. They travel and don't have a lot of sleep. I need 10 hours sleep minimum.
4. I don't go round smashing guitars.
5. My idea of music is quite different. Mine actually sounds like music.
6. I don't know about you, but I don't fancy going deaf from listening to what some people call music.
7. To me, rock music seems to have three different sounds : loud, very loud, and going on deaf.

P.S.: Some things may be highly exaggerated. No part of this statement should be taken seriously.
