All Hail The New Three-Point King

I was watching NBA basketball. The Boston Celtics are my favourtie team in the NBA and I keep up with them.The Boston Celtics were about to take on the Los Angelas Lakers in the TD Garden. Ray Allen the shooting guard of the Celtics was right behind Reggie Miller and his 3-point record of 2,560 made. Late in the first quater Ray Allen Hit the 3-point shot that put him in the NBA hall of fame surpassing Reggie Miller's record and made 2,562 shots. This ralates to me and my life and how I stride to get my own jump shots perfected. Although it doesn't make a big impact to the real world that moment did for me.

Corruption Of Government

Last weekend it was movie day. This time it was my moms turn to pick the movies we are going to watch. She picked the Star Wars Saga. I found star wars interesting because of its unquie effects and story.The Star Wars Saga made by George Lucas. In the first three movies it follows the young Luke Skywalker and his journey to become a Jedi and bring down the Empire. In the other three movies we follow Anakin Skywalker (Darth Vader) and Luke's father. It shows his story from being a slave to become the dark lord we all know. When watching all the film you learn that the whole story is not about Luke but about Anakin. Throughout the saga it also shows the corruption of government. Star Wars showcase the fall of a powerful democracy to become a even stronger dictatorship and back to a democracy. This can relate back to countries being ruled by dictators or corrupted government. In some countries there are freedom fighters fighting for a better country against a powerful government.  This message in star wars is never seen because of its unquie characters but if you look hard enough Star Wars is about a group of freedom fighters taking the fight to a corrupted and powerful government

Home Memories

After talking with my cousins in the philippines I started to listen to music. Then I ran into a song about the philippines "Mama Filipina" by the Black Eyed Peas member Apl de ap.When listening to this song I suddenly found interest because when listening to this song triggered memories from my trip to the Philippines. In the song he talks about the good and bad parts of the Philippines. After listening to this song and remembering the time I spent in the Philippines it opened my eyes to what our people had to go through. Although on first impressions I thought the Philippines was a hell. And for the first week I was there it was. But when I looked around when my relatives were working in the fields. It woke me up to a reality not everyone has a life like my own. But I find the song has a real big meaning not just for filipinos but for other people coming from a country of poverty.

Warrior

I came across Dynasty Warriors 6 about a year ago when I was looking for a new game to play on my Xbox 360. Dynasty Warriors 6 is a video game based off the "Romances Of The Three Kingdoms" Series  by Luo Guanzhong. These novels were part myth part legend part fact. The novels showcased the life of rulers and retainers which wanted to restore or replace the dying Han Dynasty. I found that this game was very interesting because I like to learn about ancient history and to play with historic figures. Throughout the series almost hundreds of people were mentioned in depth but the main focus was on the three kingdoms of Shu Wu and Wei. The puts you in full control of any of the many characters mentioned in the novels and relive their story. Also you can make your own officer and fight beside the great figures of this timeline. But I found out that it related to society as well. While playing the game I got the sense of people's beliefs and what drives them to do certain things. For example one of the main characters Lu Bu lives to fight. He strides on fighting. But when playing his story it shows that he is really fighting for his love. It also shows the different styles of ruling as a leader. The three different factions had different types of attitudes. Shu fought for the people, Wei wanted to dominate all of china, and Wu didn't want any part of it but defended their territory if needed  by seeing this is showed me that this is one of the main reasons of war. The Disagreements made by leaders.
