Good morning ♥

Its a new day today and the clock is telling me it's 13:40 (1:40pm)!
Last night got a little late but I can't help watching movies for a little too late ♥

What are your favourite movie?
One of mine are 200 Pounds beauty (미녀는 괴로워)



Some short facts:
From: 2006
Language: Korean (there is English subtitles to find)
Genre: Comedy, Romance, Drama.
My rating: ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

About:
Ha-na is the famous Korean pop singer. She suffers from having extremely poor self-esteem, as she has been ignored because of her appearance. At last, she makes the decision of a lifetime to have full-body plastic surgery.

My opinion: At first I tought that this movie could be a little touchy to talk about since it's very shallow at times and speak of what the public most of the time consider being right or wrong (fat/slim, beautiful/ugly) but I belive it bring up very important message. This movie talks about themes such as the superficial view of the world, how beauty becomes an obsession, how the most beautiful heart can hide inside a bigger girl, how people will give everything to a girl with beautiful face.

I believe that inner beauty is truly important and more important than the shallow one that we see of the most. Don't take me wrong, I love to watch beautiful pictures of gals in their curly hair, long beautiful nails but it's also important to not forget that there is a heart too ♥

This movie, about Kang Ha-na, the big girl, her heart, her dreams of that Sang-jun will look at her, love her , is really loving, cute, teary and wonderful. This movie made me laugh so much, made me cry even and reminded me of how cruel and shallow the world can be but also how empty some people are.

I truly recommend this movie!!
To tell the truch I'm more of a Scary movie kind of girl ^_^;; ♥






OKAY! I'm off to eat some food ♥
(I need a better camera than my phone T__T)

Fat in Japan

Fat in Japan

Good morning! It's 12:33 here and yes that means soon late lunch for me! I have no idea what to make but we will see what the fridge might bring!

Also, when I went trough some blogs this morning (5 minutes ago or so) I took notice of an entry of a girl that said that she had lost all her confidence in herself since someone called her fat in Japan. It's sad but the truth is that it's socially acceptable in Japan to call anyone fat. Not too good for the self-confidence there ey?

Let me explain closer! It's like when most of us western go: Hey how have you been? Long time no see! Okay not really but if you than instead said: Hi! Long time no see! Heya I did not recognizance you there since you grown so fat! <--- that is totally okay.

Sounds crazy I know but if some had a chance to call me an EU size 38 fat they would.

I have no idea why it's accepted to call anyone fat there when most people in Japan act so nice and polite most of the time. (When most think of Japan they think of bowing, being polite, so on, yes?)

Here if someone said that to my face I would laugh and I know quite a bit of people who will punch you in the face. Girls, if someone call you fat in Japan, don't let it effect you. You are NOT fat.

It's enough as it is with today's model ideal. Sides, what is so beautiful with looking like a skeleton? Where in the world is that attractive? No I am not saying this since I'm a girl with curves.

Don't think fat, don't think thin: Think beautiful. What is beautiful for you? Where do you want to be?


Okay, I'm going to go and eat a muffin now and watch some TV (Ohh TOP CHEF is on)♥
