Princess Protection Program

Princess Rosalinda Maria Montoya Fiore (Demi Lovato) is about to be crowned queen of the small nation of Costa Luna. General Kane (Johnny Ray Rodriguez), the dictator of neighbouring country Costa Estrella, infiltrates her palace with his agents during her coronation rehearsal, and attempts to capture the royal family and take over the country. Joe Mason (Tom Verica), an agent of the Princess Protection Program, a secret organization funded by royal families that looks after endangered princesses, whisks her away to safety via helicopter. Kane’s agents however succeed in capturing her mother, Queen Sophia.

The Princess Protection Program hides Rosalinda in Mr. Mason’s home in Louisiana, where she is to pretend to be a typical American teenager named Rosie Gonzalez. She meets Mr. Mason’s daughter, Carter Mason (Salena Gomez), an insecure tomboy who works at the family bait shop and dreams of going to the homecoming dance with her crush, Donny (Robert Adamson). Though Carter initially treats Rosie with annoyance and barely-masked hostility, she warms up to her after Rosie explains her situation, and the two become close friends. Carter teaches Rosalinda to act like a normal girl and Rosie shows Carter how to disarm those that scorn them by behaving as a princess. Rosie soon becomes popular at their high school.

In an attempt to trick Rosalinda into exposing her location, General Kane announces plans to forcibly marry Rosalinda’s mother. Rosalinda is distraught and tells Carter that she has decided to secretly return home. Knowing Costa Luna is still too dangerous, Carter secretly devises a plan to pose as Rosalinda and then use herself as bait to lure Kane into capture. Mr. Elegante, Rosalinda’s royal dress maker, tells Kane that Rosalinda will be attending the homecoming dance and will be wearing a blue dress that he actually sends to Carter. In the meantime, Rosalinda agrees to help Carter behave like a princess by helping a group of girls dress up for the dance; The girls all wear masks, which helps Carter disguise herself as Rosalinda.

According to plan, Kane and his agents mistake Carter for Rosie and lead her to Kane’s helicopter the night of the dance. However, Rosalinda narrowly discovers and ruins the plan by exposing herself to Kane, insisting that this is not Carter’s fight. Fortunately, agents of the Princess Protection Program, including Mr. Mason, have been waiting inside the helicopter and rescue both girls. The PPP agents quickly apprehend Kane and his henchmen and turn them over to the international authorities.

At the end, Carter realizes what “a jerk” Donny is and goes to the dance with Ed, her best friend who has had a crush on her for a long time. Rosie is crowned Queen of Costa Luna with Carter, Mr. Mason, Ed, Rosalinda’s mother, and Mr. Elegante in attendance while the song “Two Worlds Collide” plays.

According to history, Valentine was a name of one of several martyred saints of ancient Rome. Of the Saint Valentine whose feast is on 14 February, nothing is known except his name and that he was buried at the Via Flaminia north of Rome on 14 February. It is even uncertain whether the feast of that day celebrates only one saint or two or more saints of the same name. The name “Valentine” means worthy and was popular in late antiquity. The official Roman Martyrology for 14 February mentions only one Saint Valentine.

for some others. .

Feb.14 is a Hearts day. . A valentines day, a day of celebration of love for another person or other people. Many individuals who are married, engaged or dating give gifts to each other on Valentine’s Day as a show of affection for their significant other. When someone says that you are their “valentine,” they are simply choosing you as the person that they would like to show fondness to on that special day. When people are married or dating, it is assumed that they are automatically the other person’s valentine due to the romantic relationship that they hold.When you are considered someone’s valentine, not only is there a great chance that you will receive some token of love from your mate or friend, it may also be expected that you give some token of love to them as well. Valentine’s Day is a holiday similar to Christmas, however, the gift giving is normally between two people who are a couple or possess a close friendship.If you are someone’s valentine and you would like to get your valentine a special something for that day, then you may want to look into things such as flowers, a box of candy, teddy bear or even jewelry.

But for me . .

It is really not that necessary to have a romantic relationship in celebrating valentines day. Being with your family and friends on that day is the most valuable thing. Those flowers, a box of candy, teddy bear or even jewelry wont satisfy you if the person who gave you those material things is not there. What is the most important here is that we celebrate a special day for special persons of our life.

The novel tells of Oliver Barrett IV, who comes from a family of wealthy and well-respected Harvard University graduates. At Radcliffe library, the Harvard student meets and falls in love with Jennifer Cavalleri, a working-class, quick-witted Radcliffe College student. Upon graduation from college, the two decide to marry against the wishes of Oliver’s father, who thereupon severs ties with his son.

Without his father’s financial support, the couple struggles to pay Oliver’s way through Harvard Law School with Jenny working as a private school teacher. They rent the top floor of a house near the Law School at 119 Oxford Street, in the Agassiz neighborhood of Cambridge, adjacent to a local laundromat. Graduating third in his class at Harvard Law, Oliver takes a position at a respectable New York Law Firm.

With Oliver’s new income, the pair of 24-year-olds decide to have a child. After failing, they consult a medical specialist, who after repeated tests, informs Oliver that Jenny is ill and will soon die. While this is not stated explicitly, she appears to have leukemia.

As instructed by his doctor, Oliver attempts to live a “normal life” without telling Jenny of her condition. Jenny nevertheless discovers her ailment after confronting her doctor about her recent illness. With their days together numbered, Jenny begins costly cancer therapy, and Oliver soon becomes unable to afford the multiplying hospital expenses. Desperate, he seeks financial relief from his father. When the senior Barrett asks if he needs the money because he got some girl “in trouble,” Oliver says yes instead of telling his father the truth about Jenny’s condition.

From her hospital bed, Jenny speaks with her father about funeral arrangements, then asks for Oliver. She tells him to avoid blaming himself, and asks him to embrace her tightly before she dies. They lie together on the hospital bed. As a grief-stricken Oliver leaves the hospital, he is met by his father who now wants to apologize for the way he treated his son. Oliver replies that “Love means never having to say you’re sorry”, and walks off.

Married or not…( you should read this)

Marriage.

“When I got home that night as my wife served dinner, I held her hand and said, I’ve got something to tell you. She sat down and ate quietly. Again I observed the hurt in her eyes.

Suddenly I didn’t know how to open my mouth. But I had to let her know what I was thinking. I want a divorce. I raised the topic calmly. She didn’t seem to be annoyed by my words, instead she asked me softly, why?

I avoided her question. This made her angry. She threw away the chopsticks and shouted at me, you are not a man! That night, we didn’t talk to each other. She was weeping. I knew she wanted to find out what had happened to our marriage. But I could hardly give her a satisfactory answer; she had lost my heart to Jane. I didn’t love her anymore. I just pitied her!

With a deep sense of guilt, I drafted a divorce agreement which stated that she could own our house, our car, and 30% stake of my company. She glanced at it and then tore it into pieces. The woman who had spent ten years of her life with me had become a stranger. I felt sorry for her wasted time, resources and energy but I could not take back what I had said for I loved Jane so dearly. Finally she cried loudly in front of me, which was what I had expected to see. To me her cry was actually a kind of release. The idea of divorce which had obsessed me for several weeks seemed to be firmer and clearer now.

The next day, I came back home very late and found her writing something at the table. I didn’t have supper but went straight to sleep and fell asleep very fast because I was tired after an eventful day with Jane. When I woke up, she was still there at the table writing. I just did not care so I turned over and was asleep again.

In the morning she presented her divorce conditions: she didn’t want anything from me, but needed a month’s notice before the divorce. She requested that in that one month we both struggle to live as normal a life as possible. Her reasons were simple: our son had his exams in a month’s time and she didn’t want to disrupt him with our broken marriage.

This was agreeable to me. But she had something more, she asked me to recall how I had carried her into out bridal room on our wedding day. She requested that every day for the month’s duration I carry her out of our bedroom to the front door ever morning. I thought she was going crazy. Just to make our last days together bearable I accepted her odd request.

I told Jane about my wife’s divorce conditions. . She laughed loudly and thought it was absurd. No matter what tricks she applies, she has to face the divorce, she said scornfully.

My wife and I hadn’t had any body contact since my divorce intention was explicitly expressed. So when I carried her out on the first day, we both appeared clumsy. Our son clapped behind us, daddy is holding mommy in his arms. His words brought me a sense of pain. From the bedroom to the sitting room, then to the door, I walked over ten meters with her in my arms. She closed her eyes and said softly; don’t tell our son about the divorce. I nodded, feeling somewhat upset. I put her down outside the door. She went to wait for the bus to work. I drove alone to the office.

On the second day, both of us acted much more easily. She leaned on my chest. I could smell the fragrance of her blouse. I realized that I hadn’t looked at this woman carefully for a long time. I realized she was not young any more. There were fine wrinkles on her face, her hair was graying! Our marriage had taken its toll on her. For a minute I wondered what I had done to her.

On the fourth day, when I lifted her up, I felt a sense of intimacy returning. This was the woman who had given ten years of her life to me. On the fifth and sixth day, I realized that our sense of intimacy was growing again. I didn’t tell Jane about this. It became easier to carry her as the month slipped by. Perhaps the everyday workout made me stronger.

She was choosing what to wear one morning. She tried on quite a few dresses but could not find a suitable one. Then she sighed, all my dresses have grown bigger. I suddenly realized that she had grown so thin, that was the reason why I could carry her more easily.

Suddenly it hit me… she had buried so much pain and bitterness in her heart. Subconsciously I reached out and touched her head.

Our son came in at the moment and said, Dad, it’s time to carry mom out. To him, seeing his father carrying his mother out had become an essential part of his life. My wife gestured to our son to come closer and hugged him tightly. I turned my face away because I was afraid I might change my mind at this last minute. I then held her in my arms, walking from the bedroom, through the sitting room, to the hallway. Her hand surrounded my neck softly and naturally. I held her body tightly; it was just like our wedding day.

But her much lighter weight made me sad. On the last day, when I held her in my arms I could hardly move a step. Our son had gone to school. I held her tightly and said, I hadn’t noticed that our life lacked intimacy. I drove to office…. jumped out of the car swiftly without locking the door. I was afraid any delay would make me change my mind…I walked upstairs. Jane opened the door and I said to her, Sorry, Jane, I do not want the divorce anymore.

She looked at me, astonished, and then touched my forehead. Do you have a fever? She said. I moved her hand off my head. Sorry, Jane, I said, I won’t divorce. My marriage life was boring probably because she and I didn’t value the details of our lives, not because we didn’t love each other anymore. Now I realize that since I carried her into my home on our wedding day I am supposed to hold her until death do us apart. Jane seemed to suddenly wake up. She gave me a loud slap and then slammed the door and burst into tears. I walked downstairs and drove away. At the floral shop on the way, I ordered a bouquet of flowers for my wife. The salesgirl asked me what to write on the card. I smiled and wrote, I’ll carry you out every morning until death do us apart.

That evening I arrived home, flowers in my hands, a smile on my face, I run up stairs, only to find my wife in the bed – dead. My wife had been fighting CANCER for months and I was so busy with Jane to even notice. She knew that she would die soon and she wanted to save me from the whatever negative reaction from our son, in case we push through with the divorce.— At least, in the eyes of our son—- I’m a loving husband….

The small details of your lives are what really matter in a relationship. It is not the mansion, the car, property, the money in the bank. These create an environment conducive for happiness but cannot give happiness in themselves.

So find time to be your spouse’s friend and do those little things for each other that build intimacy. Do have a real happy marriage!

If you don’t share this, nothing will happen to you.

If you do, you just might save a marriage. Many of life’s failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up.

awful thing :’(

It hurts to know that he could not just accept what’s within the both of us. Being with this kind of situation is not that easy. But can we just be satisfied of what is our standing right now? I know it’s hard to pretend in public that we are just plane friend when deep inside we have feelings for each other. I thought you understand everything . . . I thought you understand my situation :’( but why is it so hard for you to face the fact that we will just be like this right now. Why you need to decide those what you have uttered lately. Is it that easy for you to do what you have said? yea you do have a point . . . if i will do what you have said maybe i’ll then find out of what i really feel for you. But my point here is that, the most important thing is we are here, we exist , feelings exist is just that sometimes I feel tired . . what’s wrong with you to decide like that ? Be careful of what you are trying to say. A tongue has no bones but it can break a heart, and Words can never be taken back and hurt is an awful thing to carry around. YOU made my heart broken . .

A responsible boy;

The Parents of his girlfriend place their trust to him. He should not violate it.

He should respect his girlfriend as he respect his sister.

He should respect womanhood because his mother is a woman: He should ask his girlfriend to do nothing He would be ashamed of, if his mother will find out.

His girlfriend has given him the honor and pleasure of her company. It is wrong for him to expect more in payment for his date.

His Girlfriend will be a wife someday. She must be an example to her children and the pride of her husband. He must help her to be pure and decent as he want his wife to be.

Manhood means strength of character as well as body. Lack of self-control is a sign of weakness. He should let his girlfriend know that he is manly.

GOD is everywhere, sees everything, knows everything. Darkness may hide him from people, but it cannot hide him from god.

If through his lack of self-control, He will get a girl pregnant, He must not pressure her to kill their unborn child.

for girls. .

A responsible girl ;

Her kisses are worth more than a party or a movie.

Her body is a temple of God, not a plaything.

The first “no” may be difficult, after that i’s easy.

Virginity is still a virtue; lust is still a capital sin.

The way a girl dress, act, and speak may be a temptation to her boyfriend.

She should observe modesty for his and own protection.

Her parents have done so much for her. She wish always to be a credit to them.

Her boyfriend will be a husband and a father someday.

He must be a hero in the eyes of his wife and children.

She should do nothing to prevent that on her dates with him.

She will be a wife and a mother someday.

She should reserve her purity and affection for her husband and children.

If through her weaknesses, She will get pregnant, She should not

take “the easy way out” by killing her unborn child.

patience . .

chaleen24 — Sat, 28 Jan 2012 17:05:24 +0000

Patience is the ability to endure waiting, delay, or provocation without becoming annoyed or upset, or to persevere calmly when faced with difficulties.

Difficulties in life is a normal thing for us. In living life, it is not that we should be always happy. According to a friend of mine, life is full of surprises which comprises ups and downs. With those “ups” we are motivated to do much more in order for us to keep up possible good outcomes. On the other hand, with those “downs” also know as failure, there are those persons who will catch our burdens and encourage us to do better for the attainment of what we want.

Life is full of circumstances, it’s just that we should be willing to fight for what is good and to do better for someday what we have sacrifice for now will make perfect sense in the future.

Lets live life with patience, courage and hope to fulfill everything we aim to have . .

LIVE.LAUGH.LOVE
