friday the 13th isn't so unlucky after all ;)
friday the 13th, a very controversial and horrific day, as people would define it... but is it really a “bad luck” day? or is its just a myth people would love to believe in to make things more thrilling and exciting... as for me, this day turned out nice...not because of the usual reason people would expect me to have, like seeing my crush or any other kilig moments, hehe.. (by the way, i don’t have a crush now), but it’s for the reason that i got pumped up with sooo0 much information and knowledge on lots of stuff.. my eyes were opened to greater and bigger things... [hehe..parang reflection paper] but seriously, i just had to write why i felt lucky on the 13th of friday...
first thing in the morning, i was enlightened by the explanation of the “unlucky” number, 13. i watched a morning show, and they had a guest numerologist and astrologer. she was asked for the explanation of why 13 is considered unlucky... she then said that that issue started during the last supper when there were only 12 of Jesus’ disciples present as Judas was busy with his “business’... then it was asked why people won’t have parties with 13 people or buildings don’t have the 13th floor... she said because when 1 and 3 are added it yields 4, and 4 is the unlucky one... why 4? because 4 is associated with the planet uranus which is also associated with destruction, she said....
so lucky me! i got a brief idea on the unlucky 13 thing....
the next thing i consider lucky, is watching a show in national geographic channel, nefertiti’s odyssey..... of course i’ve seen lots of other documentaries on egyptian history or truth behind the exodus and other amazing facts, but this show is another marvelous show in addition to all that... borchardttt, a german professor discovered the bust of nefertiti, which was considered the discovery of the century... although the discovery was to be kept in the egypt museum, he found a way to ship it to germany, so that his country would have the great treasure... the amazing thing is, borchardtt studied the “most beautiful woman in the world (as the narrator would say)”, nefertiti and there’s this group of professors studying borchardtt and his life..what he did, the letters he had and his discoveries... then, this guy from national geographic had been interviewing these different people related to the history of the discovery.. so, this shows that every great thing or discovery leads to broader discoveries... just like a domino effect, one person would die to know the history of a famous person, then this person would be studied by another person trying to find flaws and controversies... then so on and on... whew!
this is some kinda long entry, right? hehe...
then, after my last class for the day, i went home and watched tv again... you may be wondering why i have so much time for tv.. hehe... fridays have big time gaps in between classes, so that’s why... i waz lucky to find a show just starting, on HBO... that’s rare, you know... i didn’t know the title, i just simply watched it... and guess what!!!! the luckier thing is that when the bidang boy in the movie grew up, he is TOM CRUISE!!!!!!!! ahahahaha.. lucky! so, i guessed that this was another great movie, but it wasn’t just great..it’s amazing.. very touching, very inspiring... tom cruise or ronnie in the film, was a marine and fought in the vietnam war... one time, in the bay area, he and his fellow soldiers accidentally shot civilians and only a baby survived.. yet, because of an attack they weren’t able to save the baby... he described that day as very confusing because as he was hiding in the bushes, a silhouette of a man came upon him and he shot him 3 times... it just so happened that it was his fellow soldier.... after he got terribly injured, he became paralyzed from the toooot down..... and to cut the long story short, as he grew old, he kept on remembering the tragic events in his life and lead the vietnam veterans on a rally to stop the war in vietnam, to bring home their fellow soldiers..so in the end, he became well-known for being brave and heroic...
yeah, the story’s very great.... the action was realistic and it was based on actual events... there were also scenes with nurses!!!!! weeeeee!!! hehehe... but you can just imagine the reflection i had... bloody scenes, poor civilians, hard-working nurses, bad people, rallies, discrimination... sum that all up... touching....reflective.... superb..... that’s the movie, entitled, Born on the Fourth of July..
finally, after the movie... i transferred the channel to the discovery channel.... and there was this experimental show on how us, girls are attracted to guys! it presented that 90% of the girls love guys who are hygienic... 85% love those who have a sense of humor... and majority would place looks as the number 1 factor.... hehehehe.. and they had this equation showing what guys should have, included are style, attitude, humor and cleanliness....
hmmmm... is this true? hehe..
well well well, what a day full of tv!!! hehe... but yeah, i learned a lot... actually, i can say that i’m full... so full of..---->everything..... a combination of fun, reflection, discovery and girly stuff!!! so the 13th of friday isn’t so unlucky after all.... i had fun today... how about you? :) *wink*
