The series later focuses on the same group of friends as they graduate from West Beverly Hills High School and begin their lives in the adult world. Some attend college at California University, while others begin exploring avenues beyond post-secondary education.

The Music Known as Reggae

Reggae is a form of art and a style of music. It is very under rated and well... People don't really give a care for reggae but for me it is a very beautiful form of music. The reason they don't even notice the existence of reggae is because the people go with the popular songs like the usual ones you hear on the radio or the ones you can see on tv. People often associate reggae with people who apparantly smoke marijuana. I will not say that it is false but the people who do smoke that drug experiences the feeling of calmness and harmony. They express those feelings in the form of reggae. The lyrics have a very deep meaning and sometimes I can really relate to the feeling they are trying to express. That is another reason why I love reggae.

Computers have been a part of human life ever since 1946. From huge vacuum based to a handheld battery powered tablet. It makes hard things become a lot easier. However, this power comes with great responsibility. We should be the one to control this technology. We should not let it control us. This could lead into a world full of selfishness and isolation. Human relationships breaking apart due to lack of attention or maybe low grades because of a diverted focus. Computers can give us a lot of help but being too much attached to it is something worst.  As what Albert Einstein said, " I fear the day when technology surpass our human interaction, we will have a generation of idiots".

is there such thing as TRUE LOVE?

Is there such a thing as "true love?" The reason I ask is that my observations of the world today indicate that there are more people getting divorced, getting cheated on, and breaking up than there are happy couples that are in love and stay in love. I mean, are humans mentally and physically capable of staying in love with someone and being faithful to each other?
 “The course of true love never did run smooth.” 
― William Shakespeare, A Midsummer Night's Dream

“true love is felonious… You take someone’s breath away… You rob them of the ability to utter a single word… You steal a heart.” 
― Jodi Picoult, My Sister's Keeper

“Love who you love while you have them. That's all you can do. Let them go when you must. If you know how to love, you'll never run out.” 
― Ann Brashares, My Name Is Memory

Signs Of True Love

Someone who really loves you, sees what a mess you can be, how moody you can get, how hard you are to handle, but still wants you in their life. 

When someone really loves you, they will accept you for who you are with your flaws and all, and will still want you in their life. This is not to say that they won't push you to be a better person, and to think bigger, and dream bigger than you already do, but they will never disrespect you or want to change the person that you are at heart as well.

When someone is able to love you and be there for you despite how moody you can get, how hard you are to handle, and seeing what a mess you can be at times, you probably should hold on tight to them, because in this day and age people that love other people at their worst are hard to come by. Though we all have flaws, and some of us are probably worse than others, we must all make an effort to be easy to be loved. Love requires us to work at it, not only at the relationship, but on ourselves as well. Never take for granted someone who is willing to stick around while you are nowhere near reaching your potential in life.

    "Be yourself, even if it's hard being yourself in a world that is constantly telling you what you should be."

~oOo~

            We spend too much time wondering why we're not good enough - we spend too much time over analyzing, over-thinking and overreacting. We waste too much time putting ourselves down too much that we don't ever stop to see that we are more than enough.

            We spend too much time with our heads down and our hearts closed; and never get a chance to look up from the ground and see that the sun is shinning and tomorrow is another day.

 "Beauty is not in a make up bag, nor in a price tag. 

It's all in your heart and that's where it starts"

~oOo~

            It doesn't make sense to call yourself ugly, because we don't really see ourselves. You don't watch yourself sleeping in a bed, curled up and silent with chest rising and falling with your own rhythm. You don't see yourself reading a book, eyes fluttering and glowing. You don't see yourself looking at someone with love and care inside your heart. There is no mirror on your way when you're laughing and smiling and happiness is leaking out of you. You would know exactly how bright and beautiful you are if you saw your self in the moments where you are truly yourself.

You have been called:

• Ugly
• Stupid
• Worthless 
• Fag
• Fake
• Bitch
• Attention Whore
• Fat
• Anorexic
• Loser
• Nerd
• Cunt
• Annoying
• Freak
• Dumbass
• Brat
• Whore
• Slut

Just SMILE, prove to them you are a whole lot stronger TODAY than you were YESTERDAY.

YOU are BEAUTIFUL, don't let the bullshit of the society convince you that you aren't.

TRUE FRIENDS



There are many people that we may encounter in our lives but only few can be considered as our
Real friends wherein you always go together in good times or in bad times. All of you in the group are
United especially during difficulties,
Even if there are persons who are against to your friendship, no one could ever destroy it.

Friends are very special people who always accept each other with an unconditional care and love. They
Recognize each other's strength and faults in which they are
Incapable of turning away when times are getting harder and life problems seems so hard to bear. However they,
Encourage each other to spend more time, doing nothing but completely happy. They
Never get tired of listening to the endless problems encountered by their friend because they are so worried. They can
Depend on each other because the kind of trust that allows them to
Share the best and worst of their lives with laughter and without fear.

...because OURS IS A FRIENDSHIP LIKE NO OTHER.

- April Therese L. Escarda

Lucid Dream

Lucid Dream

Each and every one of us are not stranger to an experience we called dream. It is already a common experience for us that we may dream each time we sleep. Dreams are successions of images, ideas, emotions, and sensations that occur involuntarily in the mind during certain stages of sleep. Our dreams are always too bizarre that the things that happen in our dreams is too impossible in real life. Dreams can have varying natures, such as frightening, magical, melancholic or adventurous. The events in dreams are generally outside of the control of the dreamer, with the exception of lucid dreaming. Lucid dreaming is awareness of the fact that you are dreaming. This awareness can range from very faint recognition of the fact to something as momentous as broadening of awareness beyond what has ever been experienced even in walking life. Lucid dreams usually occur while a person is in the middle of a regular dream and suddenly realizes that they are dreaming. Once you realize this, you have the ability to control your dreams, which is pretty much the most essential part of lucid dreaming.

    So what does it really feel like to control your dream? To be able to freely experience what you want inside your imaginary world where you are the master of your own universe. Lucid dreaming is a very interesting experience rather than the usual dream that where we are always restricted of our free will, only able to watch the succession of images in our sleep. It would really be delighting if we could experience this in some part of our life.

CHOICES

And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe [and] to do all his commandments which I command thee this day, that the LORD thy God will set thee on high above all nations of the earth

                                                                                                                                  

                                                  -Deuteronomy 28:1

Life is definitely a trip- with many different choices, or paths to take and if you don't choose the best road, you often hit a dead end.

In our life we have to pick the best choice so that we won't regret the one that we chose. You have to use your mind in making decisions.

Just like when you are choosing a course, you have to choose base on your likes and on what you believe.

Don't let other people influenced you the course that you don't want to take. It's more important that you're happy of what you feel.

But always think that it suits your personality and you feel. This is your own choice, and of course we have a freewill.

Some choices are cinch to make. Others are hard, especially when these are people around you pressuring you to do something.

The best way to make choices in life and to decide which path is to take is through wisdom.

Wisdom means knowing what the best thing is and then applying it to your life.

Unfortunately, many people know what the best thing is, but they don't do it because they let other persons to influence them.
