 | Current mood:  hungry Category: Movies, TV, Celebrities Ok, so I just found out that the Never Ending Story indeed can't just end for good. It just keeps going and going, which in this case -as oppose to the sequels which sucked big time- could be a good thing. Reading that they might bring it back into the big screen brought a lot of memories. Also, even though I loved it when I was a kid, and now that I've seen it as an adult just makes me feel a bit embarrased, with all the modern special effects and all that good stuff it might look better. Anyways, what is it with all this remaking of everything already made now a days? It seems to me that the movie industry just ran out of ideas. |

| Current mood:  sad Category: Life I don't seem to follow through on my goals very well anymore, I suck at it. I used to be pretty good though, what happened to me? From 2005 up to summer of last year, I would just get up every morning with an objective in mind, no complaining. I would get up at 5 every morning, go to work, do my job then go home and live my life, then 7:30 would come and I would go to my classes, for 2 hours, and then go back home by 10:30 and would not complain that I had to get up at 5 the next day and start all over again. Then fall came and all went down, just like that. Even though I've tried to cheer myself up by writing, reading, exercising, even my profile looks all good and dandy, but lately I just don't feel that way. It must be the fact that now my mother is going back to Mexico and I won't see her for a while. She is taking Luna with her!!! Yeah, that's gotta be the reason. But, just like my siblings, I'll get use to it. Maybe after a week or 2, I'll be able to get back on track, maybe. I'm not making absolutes anymore, but I'm not giving up either. It's just a road block, and finding another way around seems a bit complicated at the moment. That's life I guess... |

| Current mood:  thoughtful Category: Life "A number of years ago, I had the rather unique experience of visiting backstage in Madison Square Garden, in New York, during the Ringling Brothers Barnum & Bailey Circus. To say the least, it was a fascinating experience. I was able to walk around looking at the lions, tigers, giraffes and all the other circus animals. As I was passing the elephants, I suddenly stopped, confused by the fact that these huge creatures were being held by only a small rope tied to their front leg. No chains, no cages. It was obvious that the elephants could, at any time, break away from their bonds but for some reason, they did not. I saw a trainer near by and asked why these beautiful, magnificent animals just stood there and made no attempt to get away. “Well,” he said, “when they are very young and much smaller we use the same size rope to tie them and, at that age, it’s enough to hold them. As they grow up, they are conditioned to believe they cannot break away. They believe the rope can still hold them, so they never try to break free.” I was amazed. These animals could at any time break free from their bonds but because they believed they couldn’t, they were stuck right where they were. Like the elephants, how many of us go through life hanging onto a belief that we cannot do something, simply because we failed at it once before? How many of us are being held back by old, outdated beliefs that no longer serve us? How many of us have avoided trying something new because of a limiting belief? Worse, how many of us are being held back by someone else's limiting beliefs?" This is your life, not a dress rehearsal by Jim Donovan |

| Current mood:  awake Category: Life "You may not like the current condition of your life, but it will quickly change if you strive to achieve your ideals. You simply can't grow within and stand still without. Imagine a young person worn down by poverty and hard labor. She works long hours in a factory and hasn't been taught to read or right. She dreams of better things - of learning, intelligence, beauty, and life of ease. This vision of a more fulfilling existence empowers her and drives her to action. She focuses her free time and limited resources on the development of her hidden powers. In a short time, she has so altered her character through positive thinking that she can no longer work in the factory. This menial work clashes with her new mentality, and with the ease of trowing a coat aside, she leaves it behind forever as new doors open that harmonize with her expanding consciousness. Years later, this same woman is now the master of her mind's forces. She wields her thoughts with great influence and power. She speaks, and lives are changed. Men and women hang upon her words and remold their characters. Like the sun, she becomes the fixed and luminous center around which the lives of many people evolve. She has turned her youthful dream into reality - she has become one with her ideal. You'll also realize the vision of your heart, be it humble or beautiful or a mixture of both. You'll always gravitate toward that which you love the most, even if it's kept secret. Your life will be the exact result of your thoughts, and you'll receive what you earn - no more and no less. Whatever your present conditions may be, you'll fall, remain, or rise in accordance with your thoughts, visions, and ideals. You'll become as small as your most primitive desire and as great as your most grand hope. Eventually you'll walk through doors that have always seem close to you. You'll enter the office of your mentor and he will say, "I have nothing more to teach you." You will have become the master of your thoughts, who so recently dreamed the great vision that is now your life." As a Man Thinketh. |

| Current mood: thoughtful Category: Life "If an extremely weak person embraces the truth that strength can only be developed through dedication and practice and begins to make such an effort, this person's soul will grow and develop with each exertion until it becomes incredibly powerful. Just as physically weak people can make themselves strong through careful and patient training, so can people with weak wills make themselves steadfast by the practice of inserting positive affirmations into their thought stream."- James Allen As a Man Thinketh |

| Current mood:  calm Category: Blogging Just wanted to write something before the year ends. I'm just at home with my parents waiting for the year to end, about to call my siblings back in Mexico. I'm sure they will have more fun than us,  I really hope they do.I was planing on going out tonight but I was sick all last week and it's really cold and windy out there so I decided not to, which is very depressing  . In the 9 years I've been in this country, I haven't manage to have fun on new year's. I'll make sure is the last time though (like I haven't say that before). Next year, I will probably be in Mexico, so fingers cross.There has been a lot of good changes for me this year, there has also been a lot of regrets and mistakes that hopefully I learned from and will try to think twice before making them again. All in all, 2008 was a good year aside from the fact that half my family is away. I will see them towards the end of next year though. Seems long but lately time has been passing really fast so no worries. I just need to concentrate on what I want to accomplish next year which I already started to work towards. As long as I keep myself busy then I should be fine. If you happen to be reading this, have a happy new year, have lots of fun, be safe, drive safe. If you are reading this after new year's then I hope all of the above applies to you  . Peace."Let your supreme goal be to make others happy in order to gain happiness for yourself"- Paramhansa Yogananda |
