Theme: The will to live

1. What does the title mean in relation to the film as a whole?
The title means that It is the journey of the life of pi in the ocean as he fights for his survival.

2. Among the characters, to whom can you relate to?
Pi because he is a strong person he seems to never give up on things easily and always have a positive mind and hope that he will get through each problems or storm that comes.

3. Which part of the presentation struck you the most? Why? 
The part when Pi interprets both manifestations as gifts from God. He says, God "gave me rest … and a sign to continue the journey."  This scene struck me the most because He had faith in God and I believe that God never leave us and never forsake us. He will always be there watching for us. and this It's like Pi is losing hope but his faith to God makes his strong and gives him the courage to move forward and continue the journey.

4. What is the movie’s message?
The movie tells us. that in life we struggle and it doesn't mean that we should stop and give up on things we should face it and conquer each trials that come which could make you stronger as you can be and The most Important thing is "Don't Lose Hope" because if you will stay in that mindset things will turn out well and everything will be alright, As the song says " God will make a way, where there seems to be no way"

5. Did I like this in general? Why?
I like it but i didn't love it. I like how the films tells us about the life of pi but some part of the movie which seems I can't understand because in every chapters of it you need to analyze for us to enable to understand the whole film. I would rate it 7 out of 10.

6. Did I agree with the main theme/purpose? Why or why not?
Yes because as what i see in the film is that "He doesnt say he gave up" but he still continue and never give up, he always find ways in order for him to survive and Pi is really serious that he wants to live.

7. What specifically did I like/dislike? Why?
I like the animation of the film and it's characters and the story is pretty interesting the thing that I dislike about the film is that the story line is kind of hard to understand and you need to pay attention and focus in order for you to understand.

8. Are there any aspects of theme which are left ambiguous at the end? Why?
The Tiger which I think symbolizes as Pi. because both character have a strong will and doesn't seem to never give up they have the courage and both want to live. 

9. How does this film relate to the things that are happening in your life?
I can relate my life to the film because I experience trials which represents the storm in the film and through it, it will not shake my faith to my God. and there also people which deceives me which represents the carnivorous island that i was deceived by them and I have to face the consequences of those actions. but by God it made me continue and see life as it's worth living.

            I Want You To Remember

When the world brings you down

And hurtful words break your heart

Don’t turn around

And walk away from who you are

Stand up for your beliefs

Trust in what you know

In yourself you’ll find strength

Not in another soul

Life is full of chances

Some you’ll surely take

Though from some you’ll learn a lesson

And those we call mistakes

Just because someone tells you

That it can’t be done

Doesn’t mean you must adhere

Or that you should give up

What I want you to remember

And hold close to your heart

Is that you can do anything

If only you try

It doesn’t matter who you are

I just saw this awhile ago from the internet, I don't know who is the author but this poem is really great and it speaks about my life. In life sometimes we have to experience some trials and tribulations in order for us to be strong and I had experience it, many tears have fall, many promises have been broken but despite all of it we need to stay strong no matter what and just stay true to yourself because your special in your own way. My favorite line here "Though from some you'll learn a lesson and those we call mistakes" This line hit me hard, I had committed mistakes which I don't intend to do, because of it I had gone through a lot of hating from my bestfriend so I had to take it and accept it and apologize for that mistake. I had to commit that mistake for that it could help me learn from it and never do it again and change those things that needed to be changed but the most important thing to remember is "Tears don't mean you're losing Everybody's Bruising Just be True to Who You Are

A story about two person named Henry and Lisa, went to a far place to have a vacation then  they met an accident. Unconsciously. They realize that they are in an abandon town where seems no one is living there.They can't get out in that town were strange things happen. Cults signs written on the walls, Darkness came and  Weird creatures appear. They need to find their way out in order to survive. 

My Epitaph

My favorite lines of the song Fireworks by Katy Perry and how I interpret it :)

“Fireworks”                                                                                                                   

Do you ever feel like a plastic bag drifting to the wind wanting to start again

This line explains that sometimes there’s a point in life were we feel useless like there’s nothing left, were it would be easier for people to just bring us down with their criticism but despite of that there will always be a bright side of those things. Keep your head up, change for the better, be yourself, believe and dream again.

 There’s a spark in you, you just got to ignite the light and let it shine.

This line explains that each one of us is special. You just need to show the real you and be proud of who you are and also be the light, be an inspiration to other people.

You’re original cannot be replace.

This line explains that people are all the same but each one of us is made unique. You don’t need to be somebody else to feel worth it or to feel special, you just got to be you and be true to who you are because we are all perfect in our own ways.

“JOURNAL”

                It was a cold weather in the morning were I woke up feeling like a stone was on my back, I wasn’t feeling good but I have to go to school. It was raining and you can hear the pit pit patter of the raindrops so I had to bring my water-proof jacket. Having this cold you always sneeze so it is kind of annoying especially you’re in a class that feels like you’re the only one there because it is too quiet. I had to go to the clinic to take my medication still it does not work so I had to buy again. It was my vacant so it means no class so my friend invited me to roam around in the Gigantic mall SM so I went there and enjoyed my time, we were so carefree and we don’t care what people sees on us. We went home and it was already 8 in the evening so it was awesome to feel the cold breeze of the air and see the stars that are moving while I’m in the jeep going to my home, it was a memorable day.

I composed this song last 9 months ago it is about a broken relationship and the person wants to repeat the past again but everything is to late and  he just need to accept the fact that you can't replay what the person did. I've already made a tune out of it and it turned pretty good, this song is entitled.

"Playback"

Verse 1:

Days have passed when we broke up

How can we let it go

While we still have a chance

Wish I could go back and make it right

Chorus:

Let me hit it the playback baby the playback

Turning things around

Whenever things get down

Let me hit it the playback baby the plaback

Verse 2:

So innocent, Unaware individuals

So blind that you can't see

Ignorance is bliss

That knowing the truth hurts so bad

(Repeat Chorus)

Bridge:

Now that were on the pitfall and were about to fall

There is no reason for me to stay

So I'm ready to say my last goodbye

(Repeat Chorus) 

Fun - We are young

I heard this song when my brother shared it to me. So I listen to it the first time it was pretty cool but not fond of listening to indie songs but when I started watching the lyric video. the lyrics of it is so clever. and what I think about this song it is about a relationship that just got broke up but despite of it you need to enjoy life and don't care about it because you are still young so don't wasting your time sitting around getting affected about your break up.

"The Revealers"

This is the first book that I read and it is about 3 students who are bullied and In this story they are finding a way how to stop the bullies from bullying by the power of technology.

I really like this book because its is one of the most books that says that you can also find a way how to counter all of the bullies, I was once bullied so I really can relate to it and it prove that I am not alone they are people who gone through it also and we can put a spot to it by the power of technology

"Epique Artique"

I changed my title because it doesn't fit for my post from Epic Musique to Epique Artique. Epique Artique because I combined the two words Art and Article and made it much more dramatic with "Que" and also each post here is epic and poems,songs,pictures are considered as an art so I came up with this title. :)

My first love poem that I made it is about the person love for each other each time they hold it is a touch of gold because each touch is precious just like gold.

"Touch of Gold"

Tragedy drag me down below

Take me away that's what you told

Carry me through the rainbow

Lead me to the pot of gold

See our love is so bright

Dont let it fade just hold me tight 

Now I'm in your paradise

Walkthrough each passing memory of ice

Stay and I'll be your king

Be faithful and I'll treat you as my queen

We'll make our heart and let it mold

As each time you take is a touch of gold

-Couplet Poem

This poem is opposite to Invisible it is a poem about not matter how much problem comes it won't blow you away, you are unmoved because you don't give up that easily.

"Unmoved"

Life makes us think what it is

As I move each step feels like I'm at ease

No matter how many storm that comes

There Always be a day that stay calm

I slumber in the darkness of sadness

And I wake up in the light of goodness

Push me with all your might and I'll be stable

I will not be move because I am able

I'm in a state of hindrances

And I make and take every glances

People perception of me is wrong

Although I'm still here staying strong

Now here I am standing on my feet

And happiness I am ready to meet

Go on try to move me and I'll Prove

That once you shake me I'll not be move

-Couplet Poem

In life there comes a time when we feel not worthy, like you dont exist and like you don't stand out that why I made this poem because I had experience it also and as I write it i put every emotion to this poem and it is entitled.

"Invisible"

Looking myself in the mirror

Seeing it is not even clearer

Can you even feel every touch that I take

Everything that I seek starts to break

I was asking myself Am I still alive

I wish people could see that I aim to strive

When I think what is right they start to ridicule

I get so ashame so stop being so cruel

Now I cannot move any more farther

And I'm sorry but I can't be like others

I realize that life could be so mean

Now Invisble is what I believe in

-Couplet Poem

This was my ever first poem were it all started. I wrote this when I was in 1st year college were our teacher assigned us to make out own poem so I made it as best as I can "beginner style" because of this I continued writing poems and song by now I have written 17 pieces. This is the first one entitled 

"Rain"

I felt the raindrop on my fingertips

I felt the cold breeze on my lips

As every drop of the rain falls

The thunder above can always make a call

The gushing gust flew the leaves away 

The lightning cuts the sky so they can breakaway

I love the rain rather than the sun

The children want to play so they can have fun

The plants loves the water that they drink

As the sharp winds slash the tree so it can prick

As I saw a wet bench but I cannot sit 

I have an umbrella whenever I need it
