PROTEST BOREDOM

Working and keeping occupied is one way of escaping boredom...I've been an idle (for) nearly 3 weeks because (of) I'm getting tired of my life teaching the Koreans with a customary or regular course of procedure routinely(everyday).
I really have no options its because that's the biggest way of getting big money in the quickest time,which is in line to my course.
Because boredom kept attacking me,I decided to quit for a while and stop whinning about teaching Koreans...I refused to teach in a formal school so as they just give you a meager salary after all those enclosure or "kaltas" thing.To unwind,resting for a while and enjoying myself as jobless was the first thing that I did and watching fave movies of course.
My closefriend Jackson Daguio had sent me his downloaded movies through bluetooth which I saved (them) in my cell phone.
The movies were "Remember the Titans" and "Blood Diamond"

Starred by Denzel Washington,he is memorable in Remember the Titans because of the demeanor as a football team coach during the times of racial tension between the Black and the White.I was inspired by this movie,viewing how Denzel pushed so hard the power of acceptance regardless of the color of your skin as long as you are in the same team you are all equal.Even in the early 70's,black were having a hard time of jiving the society where the majority is white.The movie was based in a true story.


The film tells the story of Solomon Vandy (Djimon Hounsou), a fisherman who is enslaved to mine for blood diamonds. He finds a large one, which he hides before being captured. In jail he meets Danny Archer (Leonardo DiCaprio), a mercenary who smuggles diamonds. They escape and go to the warzone to retrieve the diamond. On the way they are joined by Maddy Bowen (Jennifer Connely). The rest is an action movie with characters on the run in a conflict ridden paradise.

The movie were satisfying,specially "Remember the Titans".It reminds me of how the black Americans were being deprived of having the equal opportunity with the white.Nearly 3 weeks of being idle was enjoying after all,at least I got my body firm from a long sleeps without rushing and thinking of works.

HISTORICALLY BLACK

Was disconnected online for a quite sometimes.....hmmm..life's seems to be so hard this time,honestly.
I'm always in the eavesdrop about the election in USA....listening who's gonna win.At last the moment had just come and the winner was announced,Barack Obama as the 44th US President.
It was the first time African-American to seat in the White House leading the most powerful country in the world.My eyes was watered by tears as I watched him in the news speaking of his victory in front of his supporters.
I have been reading stories about segregation or racial discrimination since then,especially about the black slavery in the US.The story that truly touched my heart was the story of Rosa Parks who refused to give up her seat to make room for the white passenger.She was imprisoned for not obeying the bus driver order and segregation law of the Montgomery City code.
Well,that's history and another history made by an inspired man who's giving hopes to those minorities in America.If I were to chose..I'd rather cast my vote to Obama.
I think it's time for America to give chance to the black to lead out USA..it has been always the white on the White House seat since Christopher Colombus.
The world is also celebrating the victory of Obama so as the Philippines.I also admire McCain for accepting his loss in the election and even begging his supporters to support Obama as the next President.
I just wish that Filipinos would learn something from the election in US not just on killing,cheating,demonstration against the opponents,etc.Well,the black Americans and the rest of the minorities in USA are rejoicing and equally be accepted as one.
My prayer and hope that one day Obama would fulfill his promise for the sake of the Americans and the minorities.
