B Stands For: The Breakfast Club

 This month I'll do lots of movie reviews: there are just so many good movies beginning with a b (this is getting really fun)! So I started with a classic, one of a kind and spectacular movie hit: The Breakfast Club! I loved it from the very first second I started watching it. It's crazy, awkward, romantic and full of lifetime lessons. I love it how they break all the stereotypes that are really common in these times and are present in our time, too. They make the connection between these five teenagers a useful, good and recommended bond and it just shows that it doesn't hurt to speak to someone who you thought you never would or is below/above you and so on. It teaches you how it's important that we sometimes step out of our skin and just be human, be a peer, be someone who understands the problems and difficulties of being a high-school student. We're all human and each has their own issues that are biting him and tearing him apart inside. And it's just nice if you have, once for a change, someone you can talk to. And from my own experiences: there is nothing sweeter or sexier than a spontaneous talk. You don't have to be ashamed of your past. You don't have to think of how you look, you can start over by being yourself. It teaches you how life always gives you second chances and those are called tomorrow.
 Anyway, because there are many main characters in this movie I decided to describe each five of them. It just felt like I can give you a better view on my perspective of these adolescents.

 Andrew Clark:

 He's that type of a boy that you just can't help yourself but to find him attractive in a way of him being a sportsman. Speaking of behalf of myself, I could never date him. Why? Not because of all the prejudices I had at first, but because I just can't find small guys attractive. And he was cocky all the time. Well, I could give him a shot in person, but he didn't impress me very much. I mean he's okay and all, but not thanks.

                                                                          Brian Johnson:

 We all know that dorky guy no boy could ever want to be him, right? Who just pisses everyone of by being such a geek or a genius. They secretly all hate him for being so super smart and thinking: "Why can't his brain be mine? I've got the looks and everything!" Well, by just thinking like that you give yourself an answer just with this question. He's actually really cute by being all dorky and stuff. I think he's quite okay-looking and with a little transformation he could be a real heart-breaker!

John Bender:

 The treat of the night! You have to admit it, he's just one of those bad boys you can't help yourself but have a crush on. He makes you wanna go all crazy and wild and be a bad girl (well that's what he does to me). Like you would give anything to be his one and only girl and to show of to everyone. But he can be rude and inconsiderate at times, but he's actually smarter than you think. He's actually really sensitive beneath that shield of his that he made to not get his heart broken. But I allow him all the rudeness for being so cute.

                                                                              Claire Standish:


 At first I didn't like her, because she seemed to me full of herself and arrogant and selfish. But like for the rest of the characters, I changed my mind; she was sensitive, but caring, pink lady, but a warrior inside, gentle and careful at first, but quite a rebel was born out of her at the end. You could also see the irresistible attraction between her and John; like I say - it was meant to be. Good girls love bad boys, that's a fact and it will remain a fact forever, it can be 1985 or 2013.

Allison Reynolds:

 She seemed freaky and crazy to me at first and I was right this time. Well she opened up a little throughout the whole detention and bonding up, but she stayed quite the same. It may have changed her life, but her head remained as complicated as before, her heart cold and her soul fragile. I'm not saying she wasn't a good person, far from that. It's just that is how I saw her. How she always kept to herself, not speaking up, but I kinda understand her. If I was her, surrounded by the people I chose to despise, I couldn't quite easily open up either. I know she tried and that's what I love about her character. P.S.: I picked that photo on purpose. Why? Because she looks absolutely stunning, that's why!

 What I seriously love about The Breakfast Club is how they unite against what they all have in common: hating school. That's just something they can't avoid, even though they fight a lot about other things they dislike about each other. It teaches us compassion, to give anyone a chance and to put your ego and pride aside for a moment. It may really open your eyes. I just hope some people enjoy watching this movie as me and that we have that thing in common!

Student Exchange 2013: Barcelona, Spain

This is my first student exchange ever and I am super excited. Since I chose Spanish as my second language (besides English), professor gave us an option on going to Spain for a week; learning more Spanish (you always learn more in real life than textbooks) and besides the draft for the presentation that we're going to compose in this one week, which is going to be grated, we're going to gain lots of experiences, make new friends and get familiar with the life in Spain. Myself and other ten from my class are departing on Tuesday. We are first going to ride with a bus to Venice, from which we are flying to hot Barcelona. Here is a list of things that are planned for the upcoming week: Parc Nou Museum:  from what I can see from the Google photos, I am overwhelmed by the beautiful nature surrounding this gorgeous park. Croscat volcanoes:  I always wanted to see volcanoes from up close and I'm thrilled and freaked at the same time since I've never seen a volcano before....

The Best Things In Life Are Free: True Or False?

We are constantly surrounded by statements like: "The best things come free." and all that positive thinking along. But is it really true? I mean, I get it that when people say that they mostly mean things like love, joy and friends. These things do, however, come free, but by free it's mostly considered as not including money. For all these things that I counted, true dedication and believing yourself are present and these kind of things are what truly makes a person rich. Not money, not some kick-ass career (that may have influenced on your inner self, though) or super yachts. It's something that comes from within and that really takes effort and time to possess. And to get there, it actually takes a whole different kind of price for what you really want. It demands hard work that is often not quite what rich people own. There is a beautiful quote by Patrick Meagher: "Some people are so poor all they have is money." And that is, sadly, often correct. Peopl...

Movie Review: The Constant Gardener

Long time no see! Yup, I am back or rather - I'll try and keep posting regularly as much as time will let me. Things have been a mess lately and it has been hard keeping up with life's pace itself, let alone finding time to write. But, now I have something juicy to write about, too. Since I'm completely done with all those cheesy romantic comedies, I've decided to do write a review on this one. I've decided to watch this movie simply because of two reasons: 1.) Ralph Fiennes (needless to say why, though I shall explain it to you with great enthusiasm: he is one of my favorite and one of the best actors there ever lived in my humble opinion) 2.) It's not a cheesy romantic comedy (like I've said before, I am finished with those). And I loved the movie for multiple reasons which you will get to know with in the next couple of paragraphs. I think I've always loved that kind of movies, but I end up watching the boring ones with hopeless romantic teenagers i...
