Avatar: Sozin's Comet [Series Finale]

Rating:★★★★★
Category:Other
well, we are all aware of the fantastic tv series Avatar: The Legend of Aang. You know the "bending" and stuffl. i love the series, the animation is just right and the story is immaculate. but i will comment on the last episodes, they were...uh.. inti-...crea-...wonderfu--.. i cant really put it into words but, it rocked!

Avatar: Sozin's Comet is divided into four parts...
1. The Phoenix King --- Ozi, gets all powerful and all hope seems to be lost cause the fire nation's gonna wipe out everything and Aang's like weak.
2. The Old Masters --- well, Aang goes on a "spiritual journey" [just like most what happens most times in the series], team avatar is separated. They meet the old masters, that will be rescuing ba sing sei.
3. Into the Inferno --- MAN! i love the fighting scenes! our heroes are quite losing here but MAN! i still love it. :D this is where the 4 battles begin.
4. Avatar Aang --- MAN! yea you guessed it. i love the fighting scenes here too. :)) well our heroes triumph and aang brings peace to the world.

well that's just like a summary of what happened.

asides from the great fighting scenes and animation, the plot just seemed so great in these last four episodes. all those characters, all those stories, destinies, intertwined. a lot of the old characters resurfaced, showing that this fight is not Aang's alone. it was all of them.

one of the great things i admired in this story is the contradiction of Aang having so much power and yet having no strength in taking a life. at first i was like, MAN! this is for the world, just kill him. and all of the other avatars think so too. but aang made it through, having the right principles. he defeated the fire lord without killing him. it was just wisdom. violence cannot end violence.

SIGH. that was a lot to say. :)
i just love it so much! :))

i highly recommend you watch it!
Anticipate the upcoming Avatar movie! Coming this Dec 2009! ;)

ROCK! :]] an entry about yesterday.

:]] God is soo good.

^^ i really like how yesterday ended. :]] really cool. it ROCKS! XD and you're wondering right now, what's with that word. well that was our team word. we kept on repeating over and over. XD

first it was like this. We were sooo late compared to our set departure time from school cause ms. frias was still at the division office singing. and we were like...

"We're late. we're disqualified." and somethings like that. well i most of the negative thinking came from me. X] as kuya amiel said about me: "You were born a pessmist..." XD

well my pessimism and my thoughts dont usually happen and they didnt. mam frias arrived just in the nick of time. and we arrived there before anything could start! God is Great!

the elimination and semifinals just proceeded... even though it was carried out it an orderly fashion it managed to kill 3 hours. spelling takes soo long to finish.well anyway. we were crossing our fingers and praying all the way and we managed to get into the finals with Lourdes. God's grace again.

****okay. why do i keep on saying things about God's grace. well i've learned that if you offer things to God and let him manage everything, he'll do the best for you. before in contests i used to pray: "Lord, please let us win..." and stuff like that but for the past contest and the Science Olympiad... i prayed.."this is for the exaltation of your name..." and boom! :] he rewards those loyal to him. words are incomparable to how i feel about this.

okay. the finals were really tense. sobrang close fight. nagtie kami for like 2 times. they got ahead two times too. :] my three words were: provocateur, pseudonym and connoisseur. i spelled provocateur wrong. :\ but it's fine! kuya amiel managed to spell all of his right. and our winning word was... Euthanasia. --yeah. mercy killing. XD

well we came home with high spirits, some stuff and a trophy. but what i valued the most is the friendship we created between ourselves. how i made kuya amiel and regeanne laugh soo hard. and how andrew made me laugh so hard. :]] we even used one pen for all the written rounds. ;] quite cool. :D

we returned to school to get our stuff. it was dark as heck. :0 and scary too. i went home. and the day ended with me scared... 0_0 hotel626 is some game. :]] hahaha.

lalalalalife. you win some. you lose some. :]

Mandaluyong in the 70's

And yeah i said i'd be sleeping by now, but i just can resist writing this down after listening to my dad reminisce. :D

okaayy. i few facts before anything else -- i live in gueventville II, brgy. Mauway, Mand. city.

TRIVIA: According to my dad... Mauway was the most feared barangay in Mandaluyong because.. maraming siga dito! XDD hahahha. another one, GueventII used to be a volkswagen factory. :] hahahaha..

okay. we were like eating at home, when i asked my dad if ghosts were real, and suddenly he got to this nostalgic mood and he was going on and on about his old days.... how he used to beat up the other kids XD hahaha. tagalugin ko na nga para mas maintindihan...

grabe pala tatay ko dati... dati daw, may bata, crackling his knuckles in front of him, sabi ng tatay ko., "Ano problema mo?"... umalis ung isang bata, nagdala ng kasama... Pagtingin daw sa tatay koo... "Si jojo pala yan oh.." alis sila eh., XD hahahhaha.

mandaluyong before rather where we are right now a few decades before, it was mad. that's what he said. guys fighting each other, my dad even saw a dead guy stuffed up somewhere where they threw garbage.. [roughly infront of the gate of guevent]. Ang barangay mauway ay isang lugar, kapag nagpakita ka ng konting yabang, bugbog ka. -that's what my dad said. there were fights everywhere, dead guys? there were trees too [which i find quite unimaginable right now]. i mean, it was full of action and as my dad was telling stories, i was feeling the adrenaline myself. natawa ako eh, sumuntok daw ng pulis tatay ko eh. XDD hahahha. i wish i was like that. XD

basketball before was a physical sport. you could smack your opponent and not get thrown off the game. XD hahahhaha. what's funny is that they beat up some guys during a game and they stayed in front of the gate and those guys were too scared to try to leave. hahahha.

i liked how he described those fights. isang time daw, they entered another territory tapos naiwan un kasama nila, tapos tinali daw sa puno ng mangga. XD hahaaha. i mean whoah. and then my dad was left in a fight tapos umuwi ung kapatid nia [tito ko] para daw kumuha ng kutsilyo. XD hahahha.

okay. bottomline. i love the adrenaline, those were after the martial law days. it seemed sooo cool. it was like an action movie everyday. i even got a cool quote from my dad, it's what his father told him. "Makipagsuntukan ka, wag ka lang uuwi ng umiiyak." it's pretty cool 'cause i never met my grandfather. i like the thought too. :]

the stories my father shared me tonight. only instilled to me one thing: Weak people won't survive in a world like this.

 

now i know why my mom married dad. :] pareho kami.

let me hate you for one day.

I HATE YOU.

[i wont name names, or anything but yes, i do.]

it's the attitude you have. the devil-may-care attitude MIGHT look cool, but the hell with that. gaano ba kakapal mukha mo ha? leaving us to do things that we arent obligated to do?!? and as we walked out of that door, you couldnt even bother to at least say GOODLUCK, if not take the responsibility? what the hell is wrong with you?!?

Do your personal luxuries matter more than your obligations? other's welfare? YOU ARE SO SELFISH. cant you put that in your head? SELFISH KA. anong gagawin mo? wala?

 

if you could just turn around and look what you have becoming, you'll see what i see. you think you're so great. you think you're this successful jerk but you're not. it's the guts that people have that make them strong, not the selfish priorities.

YOU DONT KNOW HOW MUCH OF MY DIGNITY WAS LOST.

i hope no one reads this. i'm just so mad right now. the hell with that.
