"Unexpected Slumdog"

Slumdog millionaire tells a story about an 18 years old orphan from the slum of Mumbai becomes a contestant of the Indian version “Who wants to be a millionaire”. Due to exceeding people’s expectation, police arrested him on suspicious of cheating when he is just one question away from winning the 20 million rupees. Although he is so close to be a millionaire his desire is not on the money.

This film draws the world’s attention since people feel distressing about the living in India. Kids strive to stay alive on the street. There is always darkness on their way. Gangs train them and try to make the most money off them. However the basic emotion-love gives motivation to help them fight through.

After watching the film I personally think love is all that matters in the end of the day because without love one will be so lost. Money can buy a lot of things and fulfill a lot of dreams but money cannot buy real happiness and your love one’s heart. And also, it can cause arguments and separate you from your family.

Moreover the film brings out the labeling problem. There is differing between the rich and poor in every corner of the world. The riches give people a smarter image for all time as they are better educated. Identical to the film some riches just can’t accept that sometimes the poor’s can get more value out of the experiences than their education. Plus, some people are still being races and I think this is a major problem. We should start trying to see everyone equally.

This is a meaningful film, I have learned quite a few things out of it and it makes me cherish my life even more. Whenever I have some bad experiences in the future I will be more positive as it may not be a bad thing but a step to help improving myself and be tougher. If those little kids can handle all their problems so why can’t you and I?

"One, two, three" I can dance!

  In this post I would like to share how I learn my favorite dance "Waltz" with all of you. "Waltz" seems to be something in well-mannered, classic and elegant to me that I would like to preserve from the history. Of course as a woman's perspective, my favorite part of waltz is that you can dance with the elegant evening dress which I always don't do on daily. What about you?  Do you like traditional dances? I know many people don't, but sometimes they are "a must" especially at formal social events like a evening ball, weddings and festivals.

  I'll never forget the agony of my first waltz. I was twenty years old, and it occurred at my sister's wedding. (Now, I am something in twenty still.) My mother forced me to get my dum-dum cousin Kevin to dance. Naturally, both of us tried to lead. This proved to be quite unsuccessful as well as embarrassing. Therefore, I signed up for dancing school the next day. If I can learn to waltz, so can you-if you remember a few simple steps.

  The most important thing I learned in dancing school was to move slowly. There is no need to hurry a waltz. Second, as I needed to learn, the man always leads in the waltz. So, it's sad there is no leading by me anymore. ( It's sound a little unfair to me and hate being a woman at this point.)   Finally, if you are a beginner, you should count off the steps in your head.  Say to yourself "One, two, three" over and over. Now that you have mastered these three basics, you can go on to the actual movement of the feet.

  The waltz pattern is basically a square. If you are a woman, start by moving your right foot one step backward. If you are a man, start by moving your left foot forward. Then make one step sideways to the woman's left. Then both partners move their feet together. Next, if you are a woman, you move your left foot forward while the man moves his right foot backward. Finally, you both make one step sideways to the man's left, and you'll find that you're back where you started! ( Isn't it sounds easy?) Do it again and move around a little on the dance floor.

  Of course this is only the basic waltz. There are lots of variations throughout, but the key to the waltz is still "one, two, three" beat of the music. My dancing school lessons definitely paid off when I saw my cousin again sometime in last year at another wedding and we danced again in some reasons. Can you guess that he was pleasantly surprised. I can dance!
