Oscar Night!!!

Well, the time has come to see who's the winner and loser in Hollywood. I guess this is the first time in my life I've seen all nominated movies :).

"Little Miss Sunshine" - my type :). I'm not gonna write about this movie because you can read an earlier post on my blog.

"Babel" - this is also my type. Very good movie about lack of communication between people. Brad Pitt played wonderfully and he looks great with those grey hair and wrinkles on his face. It's a big mistake that he wasn't nominated and Leonardo diCaprio was.

"The Queen" - very good and intersting. It's great to look inside the Buckingham Palace and see the 'secret' life of the queen of the UK but it's just not an Oscar movie.

"The Deaprted" - I don't wanna see this crap ever again. I guess the Academy nominates Martin Scorsese everytime he makes a movie just to make laugh at him. Don't get me wrong, I do respect Scorses and I love "Raging Bull", "Taxi Driver", "GoodFellas" or "The Last Temptation of Christ" but "The Gangs of New York, "Aviator" or this year nominated "The Departed" just suck. I think Scorsese made them just to finally get an Oscar. If he wins this year it'll be a huge mistake because this movie is nothing interesting (watch the original Chinese version "Infernal Affairs" - that is good).

If it comes to actors and actresses well Forest Whitaker (actor in leading role), Alan Arkin (actor in supporting role), Helen Mirren or Kate Winslet (actress in leadin role), Adriana Barraza (actress in supporting role).

So yeah... let's see who's the Hollywood's favourite :]. Cheers

Job!

I've got a job :). I wasn't sure till thursday,but I passed a test after a training and started working. Do I like my job? Well, it may not be satisfactory all the time but I work with great people. Of course there are requirements but my boss is a really cool guy :). It's a great feeling to say "I'm working" after a long time of doing nothing. I mean, I really liked doing nothing but it'a way better to have my own money. the only disatvantage is that I come home at midnight and I gotta get up at 8 but I'll get use to it :).
So, yeah, I'm a working girl finally. Kick ass :P. Cheers.

Little Miss Sunshine


Meet Hoover family:
Olive - 7 year old kid dreaming to win Little Miss Sunshine contest
Richard - father of the family trying to sell his book about how to become successful in life
Dwayne - 15 year old dreaming of becoming a jet pilot in the army, because of that he decided not ot talk at all
Edwin - the grandpa, old junkie reading porno magazines
Sheryl - mother, I think the most 'normal' person in the family
Frank - Proust expert, who tried to kill himself.

Sound crazy and it is crazy, but in a very nice way. The whole family lives in Albaquerque but they decide to go to Kalifornia whent they find out that Olive was accepted to take part in Little Miss Sunshine contest. She's 7 and a bit overweight but she believes she'll win. Her talent is dancing and her grandpa teaches her moves in secret (her performance during contest is one of the best scenes in the movie).
It's a road movie where everyone in the family will learn something and I guess we also will. It's a comedy but not a stupid one. It's a movie that makes you think but will also of course make you laugh (When you see this old VW bus that you have to push before the engine starts to work you'll laugh very loud :)).
When Iwas watching this movie I thought "where the hell such people get from?" but then I realized that my family is also very strange but I just don't see it and I guess that everyone of us has relatives that are a bit 'crazy'.
"Little Miss Sunshine" is nominated to an Oscar award and I hope it'll win because of all those movies only 'The Queen' might beat this movie.
I had a great time watching the movie and this is the movie that stays in mind. So go to the cinema, buy it on DVD or just downlaod it from the Internet (but it's a piracy ;D) and have fun.Cheers :).

Odwaga

A few days ago I found an interesting site called "Odwaga". It's a site where I found out that I actually can be cured from my homosexuality... o.k. enough laughing let's be serious.
"Odwaga" is a place in Lublin helping gay people to come out of their homosexuality. They provide help for everybody who needs it. Not only spiritual but also therapy meetings. I'm not saying that some people don't want to be "cured" but when I read that I wasn't born like that but for sure I have problems with my dad or I was sexualy abused or my mom didn't love me and now I'm looking a mother in my partner or... many many more. the thing is I know my parents love although they don't tell me that everyday. i know that their actions show his and it's ok. I wasn't sexualy abused, so why some people think that for sure something is wrong with me?
The truth is that I wasn't even that scared when I realize I was gay. Finally it was something like "great, now I know what's going on". I told my friends because I trust them. Did I tell my parents? No. But the problem is that they have enough trouble with and I know they wouldn't understand. Maybe someday I'll tell them but not now. I mean they know I agree with some of the Polish gays demands, that I watch "L Word" (great lesbian show) and Natalie Portman is even better for me than Richard Gere (my mom loves him) :). But they don't read it like that at all!
Coming back to "Odwaga". They say on their website that I must be close to God and try to live in purity... What? I'm not saying I'm very close to God, but I'm close. I don't go every week to church because I don't like it. But I go to FRAMA (Frańciszkański Ruch Apostolski Młodzieży Alternatywnej). Thanks to that I've learned a lot about my religion. Of course I didn't go there and say "Hey, I'm Karmen and I'm gay". I told only one person, whose a monk. And what I realized? Not only he didn't rejected me but said that if it's nothing from the past than it's ok :).
I'm not saying that this "Odwaga" tells me I must change, but when I read some of their theories it makes me laugh as well as ashamed. To them it's nothing wrong that I'm gay but when I sleep with somebody or I think of doing it I commit a sin. It's good that they don't tell me that electro shots are a very good way of curing me (what was very popular in the 80s and 90s) :).
I must say that it was the only site that didn't make me angry but rather amused. They're trying their best and as I said some people might find them helpful. But isn't it just lying to yourself? Everyone have a need to love and be loved. if it's a hetero or homosexual relation should be nobody's matter. Cheers.

P.S. If you wanna learn more visit http://www.odwaga.oaza.org.pl/ :).
P.S.2. Sorry for such a chaotic post but I hope you got used to it :D. Cheers.

Troche zdjęć :)

Właśnie popsułam plac zabaw. chciałam wejść,ale belka była zbutwiała i złamała się. A może to znak, ze czas przejść na dietę? :P
Ale mimo to przeszłam się po mostku. Było zabawnie :D.
Kucyk. Miał troche przekichane bo kozy zjadły mi prawie cały chleb jaki miałam dla niego. Coś na szczęście uratowałam :)


Kościół Św. Franciszka. Znajduje się tutaj również Zwierzyniec Św. Franciszka

Kury :).Ale za to jakie zabawne. Niestety nie widać tych brazowych bo miały czupryne jak lwy i zastanawiałyśmy sie czy one cokolwiek widzą,ale skoro nie rozbijały się o siatkę to chyba tak :).

A ta koza perfidnie próbowała zjeść mojego batonika. Robiła maślane oczka ale się nie dałam :P

Czytając "Pachnidło" Patricka Suskinda. Polecam, bo to świetna ksiazka :).

Te zdjęcia zrobione były 18 stycznia w Szczecinku. Niestety zdjęć miasta nie mam, ale jak zrobię następnym razem to wrzucę je na bloa bo to naprawdę ładne miasto. Cheers
