One Day

Dexter and Emma spend the night together following their graduation from Edinburgh University in 1988. Though they do not become romantically involved, they become friends and in subsequent years, their lives take them in different directions, but they keep in contact.

Emma becomes a waitress in Kentish Town at a horrible Tex-Mex restaurant, while Dexter becomes a successful television presenter. Gradually, Emma fulfills her ambitions, first as a teacher and then as a bestselling novelist. Conversely, Dexter's career collapses, going from presenting a mainstream television show, to cable TV, to being fired from a late-night video games review show.

By 2001, Emma has broken up with Ian, and Dexter has divorced wife Sylvie with whom he has had a daughter, Jasmine. The cause of the divorce is Sylvie's infidelity with Callum, one of Dexter's university friends. After the divorce Dexter goes to Paris to visit Emma, where she is writing her second book.

When they meet in Paris, they confront their relationship and whether becoming lovers is the right choice, after all the years they have been friends and with all the complications such a transition would make

then...I will stop here otherwise I will spoil the end :P

My name is Memory

The story is about an old soul, whose name is Daniel, which has spent centuries falling in love with the same girl. Life after life, crossing different cultures and countries, he and Sophia (with different names and shapes in every life) have been drawn together.

Daniel has "the memory", the ability to recall past lives and recognize souls of those he has previously known. However Sophia doesnt remember anything about past lives.

Interwoven through Sophia and Daniel's unfolding present day relationship are glimpses of their expansive history together. From 552 Africa to 1918 England, the two souls share a long path of seeking each other time and time again. But just when young Sophia finally begins to awaken to the secret of their shared past, to understand the true reason for the strength of their attraction, the mysterious force that has always torn them apart reappears. Ultimately, they must come to understand what stands in the way of their love if they are ever to spend a lifetime together.

The Picture of Dorian Gray

Lady Brandon, the well-known artist Basil Hallward meets Dorian Gray. Dorian is a cultured, wealthy, and impossibly beautiful young man who immediately captures Basil’s artistic imagination.

One night, Dorian arrives at the studio, and Basil reluctantly introduces him to Lord Henry, who he fears will have a damaging influence on the impressionable, young Dorian.

Basil’s fears are well founded; before the end of their first conversation, Lord Henry upsets Dorian with a speech about the transient nature of beauty and youth. Worried that these, his most impressive characteristics, are fading day by day, Dorian curses his portrait, which he believes will one day remind him of the beauty he will have lost.

In a fit of distress, he pledges his soul if only the painting could bear the burden of age and infamy, allowing him to stay forever young. After Dorian’s outbursts!

The black Labrador

Yesterday my bf took us (D and me) to an irish pub, its name is The Black Labrador. I loved this place, its not just because it looked like a real English pub, "The black Labrador" opened in 1986, the low ceilings and decorations gives the restaurant an authentic pub atmosphere unlike any in Houston. And the fish and chips are delicious!!...I am craving for so more...:P

We had such a great time, and as a dessert we enjoyed a Rasperry bread, just yuuummyy!

NO WITHOUT MY DAUGHTER

An Iranian immigrant in the USA, Sayed Bozorg Mahmoody travels from the United States to Iran with his U.S.-born wife (Betty) and daughter (Mahtob) to visit his family. Once there, Moody gradually reveals to Betty that he wants to remain in Iran, thinking that it would be a better place for the family. Betty disagrees and wants to leave with her daughter, although Moody is determined not to let that happen. Over time, Moody becomes increasingly unstable and violent, taking advantage of Iranian laws to strike and terrorize his wife and daughter. Betty subsequently discovers that if Moody divorced her, under the laws of Iran, he would get sole custody of Mahtob. With no other choice, Betty takes Mahtob and they flee together, overland to Turkey and then back to America with the aid of people-smugglers.

VIVA CUBA

Viva Cuba is a Cuban independent film that explores emigration and the effects it can have on children who have to leave friends and extended families behind. Youngsters are often uprooted without being consulted and then must contend with their new surroundings. In one scene, Malú and Jorgito discuss when they might reunite. The best they can hope for is to forget one another as their lives change and they face new pleasures and challenges. The viewer knows they are unlikely to ever see each other again, unless Malú’s mother can be granted re-entry, which is extremely unlikely given the state of Cuban immigration laws.

An old Lady

I don’t know where it changed…

The day before yesterday I was a teenager, and just yesterday I was a twenty something girl fully loaded with 100% pure energy that just couldn’t get tired: Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, party all the way!! Along with a fulltime work and friends and yet so naive I was, to consider that better times were still to come...but how naive was I? Those were the best times!!!

Today I find myself confused; most of my friends got married, but why? Weren’t they better before that? Why the rush? The only thing they caused was to rushed people that were not in a hurry and just because of that, now I am struggling myself! .  With not a single desire to get married now, and the few handful of guys that are still on the market are pushing me to get married right away...grrr! Why the f@k&g! rush?!

Who would say that before even turning 30, all the people would think that the last train is almost departing and according to them, I have to rush if I still want to get on it...is it true? Why the rush if they will get divorced in 5 years, 10 at the most, why they had to put off they youth for later, later when they don’t have it any more.

Don’t get me wrong, I don’t feel lonely anymore, now I have company and if I didn’t have him, I would have another one.

The problem is not being alone, the problem is to find the perfect match, when I see all the people that are getting married omg! They look so happy in those pictures, like if that was the best stuff on earth, so I am wondering, should I get married just now? Or should I wait until I can reflect the same ultimate happiness feeling, which they seem to have just before the wedding. (Apparently that feeling doesn’t last long…three months, is what they say…(Again, Why to get married just now?!))

I was all confused, thinking about Abed when I went to a Party, It was a 40 year anniversary, of a guy that felt depressed because he was turning 40. omg! (I thought…)” If I am turning 30 and I feel depressed, this guy must not be doing fine though. “

During the party I met with Cointa again, so I started talking to her, it was amazing…It was like a year that I didn’t talk to her. And now I am chit chatting with her again…and what I like about her is that she is an old lady and she can provide me with a lot of advice, for example she was telling me that I should get a guy just if I wanted, she told me at your age most of the people will try to push you to get any guy, just something, but you shouldn’t surrender just now, should need to get married just when you feel you are ready and if you turn 40 and still you don’t want to get marry then don’t  get marry, it means that you are better off this way.

And I told her that I had many boyfriends before but for some reason they don’t seem to please me just the way other girls seems to be pleased and that I haven’t reach that feeling they show just before getting married, is there something wrong with me? I said and then Cointa replied NO!, There is nothing wrong you are hanging out with the wrong guy. And what I liked the most is that she gave me hope, opposite to all the other people, she told me you don’t worry when they right guy comes you will be as happy as the other girls are, you will see, just wait, your time is not yet due!

And remember if a guy proposes you and you have to think about it for a minute…then that guys is not the right one for you!
