Review: The Proposal

Posted in ,

Imdb Rating: 7.2/10
Rotten Tomatoes Rating: 4.7/10 (Rotten Tomatoes SUCKS! Hello, they gave Twilight around the same rating!)
My rating: 8/10

Wow! I was so excited to see this movie anyway, but it was fantastic! Literally awesome! RYan Reynolds and Sandra Bullock both did fantastic jobs in their characters; I loved the couple! It was really cute and very humorous! Very cute movie to go watch with the girlies, and I even reckon that your man might like it :)

Go and watch it. It's worth it. Non-stop cute-ness.

Longing for the past..


You know when you feel like that? Like the present is unpleasant, and the past is all you desire? Maybe you're not longing for the past.. but I sure am. I'm nostalgic.

You see, everyone who has ever been close to me, best friend wise.. they've all left. In their own ways. And.. I'm now stuck in a school where.. nothing feels..well, basically I don't feel like I fit in everywhere. Everyone's got their own tiny little niche groups.. and I'm just.. there. Alone.

Which brings me to Peyton Sawyer's beliefs in One Tree Hill. People always leave. And it's true. In the end, its only you. You're alone.

I wish that they'd come back. That things were the way they used to be. Where everything felt good, I felt confident, and there'd always be a shoulder to cry on. Now, it's like if I have a bad day, certain things will only add to the fuel of my loneliness.

And you know, I probably sound like the most emotional kid around. I guess we all have our days, right? Today, mine was (excuse the language) really shitty. And the people who could've helped me through that.. they're not there anymore.

Everything's lost.

I could sum up this post and say everythings going to be okay, but no ones telling me that. And I can't do it alone.

I don't even know if everything will be okay..

I'm lost..

And I just don't know what to do anymore..
I can only wish..

It's all about the journey..

You know, I'm jsut going to say upfront, I'm not a fan of Miley Cyrus. I mean, you know a couple of years ago when I watched Hannah Montana.. yeah okay you culd say I was a fan. And you know I'm not totally against her music either. I mean it may not be my taste, but some of her songs I actually don't mind.

Music for me is about meaning for one, and then I love my dance music. That's it. :)

So when I listened to 'The Climb' by Miley Cyrus on the radio today, I was astonished at how it..inspired me.

Lately I haven't been putting much effort into my education.. I've been slacking off, you could say. And I'm not proud of it. I just haven't been in the mood, it's nuts I know, especially because I'm in year 11 now and I have to shape up if I want to have a better future. So anyway, I haven't particularly been getting good marks in Extension English 1.. and I've been thinking lately I should drop it. But the thing is, I haven't even TRIED to do well in that subject.. and so how am I going to get to the prize if I don't work my way up?

Life's not an elevator, its a stair case. You have to work for it. That's what success is about, you know?

And so that song motivated me, so tomorrow I'm going to change. You'll see. :) Tonight, I can't be bothered, I'm going to bed soon.. soo.. no point =) But I'll prove I can do it. I'll work my ass off during school hours and after.

I'll still be on every afternoon to update TFBlog, because that's basically my life right now :P No one realises how much work I put into that blog, so if it sucks, just say so and then I won't bother anymore. :/

Have faith tiana, have faith.

So people, if you're having trouble lately, just know it's all up to you. Set your mind to your work, because you CAN do it. You're just lazy. Things don't come to you as gifts, because then otherwise you'll just take it for granted. But if you work for it, then you'll feel a lot better about it. You'll appreciate it.

Every human is capable of achieving what they set out to do, it just depends on how important it is to you, and how much work you put into it.


You can do it. Have faith, believe..

ps: and if you don't like Miley, just give this song a chance. :)

A story to inspire..

Well, if you don't know already, right now I have 5 million assignments for school. Okay, so I could be exaggerating just a little. Anyway, my point is that I feel completely unmotivated, maybe like its the end of the world? Okay so I am really exaggerating here. The thing is, nothing motivated me to get things done, I didn't really look at my life as lucky or special or easy.. until I read this story.

So as most of you know, I have a blog called Twilight Forevermore, a blog that's updated every day with Twilight news & more (check it out here), and I also have a Twitter linked to that account (which you can check out here). One of my followers, named Becky, tweeted me about her story. Gave me the link. I searched it, not expecting anything.. like what it was going to be..

For those few minutes, as I sat there in my chair, reading intently, taking in every word, crying.. those couple of minutes changed me forever. Isn't it weird? How something that occurs for a few minutes can change everything?

Becky touched my heart. The fact that she is so brave, I want to cry. The fact that she is so strong, I want to cry. The fact that she's been through so much hard-ship, and I haven't been through much, it makes me feel so guilty. I feel guilty that tragedy happens in the first place. When you finally think everythings going to be okay, it's just not.

Becky basically went through a year of losing her job, having a car accident, having a blood clot which caused major medical problems, terminating an exciting pregnancy due to a medical relation, losing the love of your life at such a young age... How could anyone live through all this in ONE year?! I feel so inspired by her, she is amazing.

I've changed. I feel like an idiot, complaining about couple of assignments ruining my life, when someone like Becky lived through so much pain, and is still going strong.

You really need to read her story, it's definately worthwhile! It might even change you. Change your perspective. Change your beliefs. Change the way you see things and people... Her story is guaranteed to touch your heart..

Visit her site and send her an email with some kind words to keep her going. She needs you.

Peace and love,

Tiana x

Loving: Conspiracy - Paramore ♫
Yes, dear friends, I'm addicted to Paramore right now. Who knows how long this obsession will last, I mean, look at Twilight... overly obsessed (in a good way).

Anyway, I'm in a stressful period right now.. so many school assignments, LOADS of lines to learn for my theatrical performance next Wednesday, which I've been putting off because I've got a lot of other stuff to do. I'm currently in a very creative mood, feel like drawing.. Yes, have I mentioned lately I'm drawing a lot? Well, in case I didn't, I am. :) I blab a lot, don't I?

But I have nothing else to say. There's nothing to talk about. Why do you think I keep posting lyrics up? They represent my mood, emotions, feelings at the time of posting.. so I guess that communicates something in an easier form, than me having to think of something to say.

And.. I'm bored. Going to TF blogggg.

Ciaaoo.

Dare you to move - Switchfoot

Posted in , ,
I just watched the 8th episode of One Tree Hill Season 1, and when Haley & Nathan get together, this song plays. I remember this was in A Walk to Remember - one of my favourite movies. And this song? I LOVE this song! I'm so happy I found it, and that I'm able to share it with you. Tell me your thoughts, watch this video, read the lyrics, and enjoy.

"Dare You To Move"
Welcome to the planet
Welcome to existence
Everyone's here
Everyone's here

Everybody's watching you now
Everybody waits for you now
What happens next
What happens next

[Chorus]I dare you to move
I dare you to move
I dare you to lift yourself up off the floor
I dare you to move
I dare you to move


Here's the video, with some footage of A Cinderella Story - cute movie, yes. :)




Like today never happened
Today never happened before
Welcome to the fallout
Welcome to resistance
The tension is here
Tension is here

Between who you are
and who you could be
Between how it is and
how it should be

[Chorus]

Maybe redemption has stories to tell
Maybe forgiveness is right where you fell
Where can you run to escape from yourself?
Where you gonna go?
Where you gonna go?
Salvation is here

I dare you to move
I dare you to move
I dare you to lift yourself up off the floor
I dare you to move
I dare you to move
Like today never happened
Today never happened
Today never happened
Today never happened before

Did someone break your heart inside? You're in ruins..

Posted in , , ,
21 just so happens to be my favourite number. Whoopidi doo.

I love this song. It's called 21 guns by Green Day. I've listened to it over and over so many times, that a normal person should be sick of it by now.

Here's the lyrics, and there's a video of the song.
Tell me what you think?!
X

"21 Guns"
Do you know what's worth fighting for?
When it's not worth dying for?
Does it take your breath away
and you feel yourself suffocating?

Does the pain weigh out the pride?
And you look for a place to hide?
Did someone break your heart inside,
you're in ruins

One, 21 Guns
Lay down your arms
Give up the fight
One, 21 Guns
Throw up your arms into the sky
You and I ...

When you're at the end of the road
And you lost all sense of control
And your thoughts have taken their toll
When your mind breaks the spirit of your soul

Your faith walks on broken glass
and the hangover doesn't pass
Nothing's ever built to last,
you're in ruins

One, 21 GunsLay down your arms
Give up the fight
One, 21 Guns
Throw up your arms into the sky
You and I ...

Did you try to live on your own?
When you burned down the house and home?
Did you stand to close to the fire?
Like a liar looking from forgiveness from a stone

When it's time to live and let die
And you can't get another try
Something inside this heart has died,
you're in ruins

One, 21 Guns
Lay down your arms
Give up the fight
One, 21 Guns
Throw up your arms into the sky
You and I ...

Different.

So I really haven't posted in a long time, I know. And yes, I've changed my font to SMALL. :) I've been really busy lately, with school, and well i'm a pro at bludging. Life is.. well it's different for me. I've changed. I don't know how and I don't know why. But I'm different. I'm more into punk rock, and well I think I've matured about a lot of things in my life. I see things differently now..I'm quieter, I'm more independant.. and more thoughtful. I've developed a greater love for art and music, and my taste in music - well it's broadened quite a bit. I'm into a lot of rock, punk, alternative, indie and of course i'm always going to be into pop/dance/some rnb. Now, I just love a lot more music. I'm definately loving the oldies, like The Cure, and Madonna even (her old stuff thank you), young mc, led zeppelin, and a lot more. Art-wise, I'm drawing a LOT more, expressing my emotions and feeling through my art. :) I'm different.

Lucas and Peyton. Leyton. Who doesn't love them? They're my favourite couple, yes well they do tie with Edward and Bella of course! I might even like Edward & Bella more.. who knows. Lucas and Peyton are more.. well realistic, in that Edward's a vampire, and its likely that vampires do not exist..

I love One Tree Hill. Nobody can ever take that away from me :P. Peyton is my favourite character (female) over all, as is Lucas (male), and my favourite relationship? Leyton. They're just so perfect together. I've been watching OTH from the beginning, and wow, the chemistry between them.. it's so .. perfect. So heart-wrenching. It only makes me more depressed.

So, to give you guys a head start on this looooooveeee thing, here's a video of the Top 10 Moments of Leyton. Don't hate me if it spoils the entire series for you, i suggest you watch the series pre-hand. But, sometimes, you just can't wait. :S

La di daa..

Wow, so I really haven't posted up for a LONG time.. I've been really busy with school.. you know exams and stuff. I've also been busy with TF blog.. Then I went to another state over the weekend, and I had a BALL! I went for a shopping trip with my sister and my bro's fiancee. We had heaps of fun. We left friday, came back sunday. I know, a short trip, but it was worth it. The plane sucked, I hate flying. I'm not scared or anything, it's just so inconveniant, and annoying. Then we were welcomed into melbourne with a 6 degrees celcius atmosphere..But after that, it was hotter than where I live! Apparently it was raining where I lived, while we were away. Looks like we brought the sunshine with us! :D

So on the first day we shopped around in the city. Boy, so many shops, it was like heaven on earth... The second day we went to a street that's well known for cheap stores with ood quality designer brands. First thing I bought? Boots. Hot hot hot boots. I am in love, literally, with my boots. They're brown, and heeled (like i love), and like patent leather except not so shiny.. they're more textured. They're from Ninewest, a brand I adore. Want to know how much they were? EXPENSIVE! $265. I know, kill me now. My sister also bought boots for around the same price, along with my bros fiancee.

The second thing I bought was a bargain, and a great buy. A tan leather bomber jacket. Was $120. Bought it for $29!!! Where can you find a HOT jacket for THAT price?!?! I was so super excited! Didn't believe it at first.

Then I just bought some accessories, like belts and beanies. :) And i bought a lot of food. I put on a kilo or two.. trust me on that! I love that Italian place.. had gnocchi both nights, nutella pizza one night with two scoops of ice cream.. adn that reminds me, there was goooood ice cream there! Not as good as croatia... but definately gooood!

So I had a great time! Glad I went. I was also inspired by my favourite store, Forever New, in that on their walls they had photo canvases of Paris... I LOVE PARIS! As you all know. So I'm going to buy some canavas prints of Paris, and I'm putting them up in my room! Seriously! :) Me lovee pariiis.

That was my weekend. A good break from the studying. Now I have so many assignments due, I'm going to die. It's inevitable anyway.. Just wish it wasn't so soon..

Have a good week, and Happy First of JUNE! :D

Loveeee fromm
me?

Just an addiction..

...that I'll probably need rehab for, but I won't get over it. Yes, as you know, I'm very much a Twilight addict. So I thought I'd share my little collection with you.


So these are my books that, as you can probably tell, I've read way too many times. Blame my sister too, she borrowed them and currently has my Twilight book at her house - that's what's missing. I've vowed I'll buy the hard cover collection one day.


My posters that my sister bought me for Christmas last year. Need to make some room for the New Moon ones, and the Eclipse ones, and so on so forth..


My sister bought me this today from Supre~ I was so ecstatic! Now I can show my love for Edward to the world! Okay, now I sound really insane.. :D


My sister bought me this off Ebay. It's a Robert Pattinson mousepad! Isn't it awesome? :) Yeah, my sister buys me a lot of Twilight stuff (she's addicted too, don't you worry!)


My beautiful and treasured Twilight double disc edition! Love Love Love this!
And so that's basically it. Once I get more stuff, I'll be posting it!
See how badly I'm addicted? But there's people out there that are a hundred times worse than I am.. I don't think I'm too bad.
Anyway, if you're addicted to Twilight too, then visit my other blog www.twilightforevermore.blogspot.com to be updated regularly on anything about Twilight!
Peace and Love, world!
