On Getting Old

Filed under: Personal

Getting old, everybody worries that especially when no one will take good care of you or no one will attend to your needs. It really exists in fact I have able to witness that many times in our neighborhood, relatives and some friends who shared the sad experiences of their grandmother and grandfather.

Their sons and daughter are only good at them on those times when they are strong but now that they are becoming old and senile they were treated as if they don’t belong to a certain family and it is just so frustrating.

So it would be better to send our grandmothers and grandfathers to a nursing home that you can assure they will be taken care of at its best. A place where they feel as if they are at home and they belong than having them at physically at your own home but no one is attending them.

Sleeping Dictionary

Filed under: Movies (TV)

I just got my membership card from Video City(Buhangin) a week ago and the first 6 movies that i borrowed were Memoirs of Geisha, Step-up, Sleeping Dictionary, The Terminal, Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants and 13 going 30. Of all them, Sleeping Dictionary is what i find most beautiful to watch. I like the story and i super like the main characters and of course, the romance and all that passion. Whew! Anyways, to give you an additional info about Sleeping Dictionary (aside from those that you will find in the internet) I have here a short overview.

Jessica Alba speaks the language of seduction in this tantalizing story of forbidden loveset agains the backdrop of the steamy jungles of 1930’s Sarawak.

A beautiful tribeswoman (Alba) becomes both concubine and language tutor to a young English colonial (Hugh Dancy), and in the heat of the jungle their passion grows into a forbidden love affair. But the lovers are forced to separate after they are threatened defying duty and tradition. When the young man returns a year later with his new bride, the heat of passion reignites and intensifies as secrets surface that are as deep and dark as the jungles that those who keep them inhabit. - from the text found on the VCD

I give this movie 5/5! Congratulations!
