07: Journey of Wonder

Hi everyone! Yesterday my friends, Aeron, Roan, Mike and I went to The Mind Museum located at The Fort, Taguig and Earth Day Jam 2012. Our first stop, The Mind Museum. It is a newly build museum with noticeable structure designed by a team of architects from Lor Calma & Partners, led by renowned architect Ed Calma. According to the The Mind Museum, the architectural design was inspired on futuristic, yet with organic approach based off of cell growth and molecular structures.

Mirroring the functionality of nature, come features of the building's innovative and sustainable design include: slanted exterior walls to minimize the entry of sunlight, a specially curved roof for more efficient rain collection and strategic orientation to utilize the shadows of adjacent buildings, all of which contribute to more energy efficiency. Ed counts the form and location of The Mind Museum as his favorite things about the museum; he believes that it has a interesting place in "a sea of box buildings and it celebrates the terminus of the [Bonifacio] High Street axis" - a combination that is sure to awe visitors.

Ed was drawn to The Mind Museum by the idea that it would influence a generation of Filipinos to see science and art in a different light. In particular, he hopes that the museum will help people to see the connection between the two fields, as well as remove the intimidating edge from science.

05: Hindi Films - Movie Marathon

Hi Everyone!

My siblings and I got bored so we decided to have a movie marathon. I recommended Hindi-Films which are the 3 Idiots, Taare Zameen Par and Ghajini - all movies starring by Aamir Khan. I chose these movies cause I found them light and full of lessons. I enjoyed the singing and dancing scenes. And of course all these movies made me cry, seriously. And it is very rare to see such great films that touch your heart and make you a better person. Anyways, first lets talk about Amir Khan the Producer, Director, Writer and an Actor.

Aamir Hussain Khan (born 14 March 1965) is an Indian Film actor, director and producer who has established himself as one of the leading actors of Hindi Cinema. (Source: Wikipedia)

Aamir Khan is one of the best actor I've ever seen or watch on big screen. He is an effective and super talented actor, singer and dancer. Other called him as the Perfectionist, maybe because he always make sure that ever piece of his movie is at it best. Talking about his movie, the first movie that touched my heart is the 3 Idiots, maybe some of you already watched it and touched too. 

3 Idiots is a 2009 Indian comedy-drama film directed by Rajkumar Hirani. Farhan qureshi (R. Madhavan), Raju Rastogi (Sharman Joshi) and Ranchoddas Shamaldas Chanchard "Rancho" (Aamir Khan) are three engineering students who share a room. Farhan is studying engineering to purse his father's wishes over his own wish - to become a wildlife photographer. Raju is studying to raise his family's fortunes and get them out of poverty. on the other hand, Rancho studies for his simple passion in machines and devices... (Source: Wikipedia)

Rancho believes that success in studying is not achieved by solely memorizing definitions given by textbooks or professors, but by understanding and applying the concepts. He believes that one should follow excellence, not success, as success will come itself if excellence is followed. (Rancho's quotation in the movie). Next stop the Taare Zameen Par (Ever Child is Special) or in Walt Disney Home Entertainment - Like Stars on Earth. It is about a little boy named Ishaan, who has been nipped so many times in the bud that it begins to wilt. But then comes the Teacher (Aamir Khan) who helps the bud to flower fully. The Film is full of amazing moments that will make your eyes well up.

Taare Zameen Par is a 2007 Indian drama film directed by Aamir Khan. The Film explores the life and imaginatin of eight-year-old Ishaan (darsheel Safary). Although he excels in art, his poor academic performace leads his parents to send him to a boarding school. Ishaan's new art teacher (Aamir Khan) suspects that he is dyslexic and helps him to overcome his disability. (Source: Wikipedia)

After the comedy and dramas lets go to more intense, Action. Ghajini is a adoptation or other version of a Hollywood movie, Memento. Sanjay played by Aamir Khan, suffers from short term memory loss or the anterograde amnesia. After 15 minutes Sanjay forgets everything - people, places, names, he keeps records of his life by photos using polaroid, writing notes and making permanent tattoos on his body.

Ghajini is 2008 Indian psychological thriller film written and directed by A.R. Murugadoss. The film explores the life of a  rich businessman who develops anterograde amnesia following a violent encounter in which his love interest, Kalpana (model) was killed. He tries to avenge the killing with the aid of Polaroid Instant camera photographs and permanent tattoos on his body. (Source: Wikipedia)

Go and try to watch hindi movies and be amaze how great Aamir Khan and Hindi Films. :)
