Our generation been through many technological advances of media and entertainment between the 90s and the 21st century. We were once a TVaholic type of people, watching T.V all day long endlessly. The introduction of reality TV took the media world to another direction. Shows like MTV's ; the Real World, Road Rules, Super Sweet Sixteen and others shows currently running on different network. They have kept us entertained because we like watching other people live theirs life on T.V hoping to one day do things like them, so we keep watching.
But with the introduction of the World Wide Web, it have totally change the ways we view medias and entertainments. Blogs have come along way in becoming the next source of entertainments. They always said reading was the best source of entertainments and this is proven to be right. Services like Xanga.com have been giving us the ability to show ourself to the world. They have come along way and alway improving their system to fill the people needs. One feature that is great is that you can interact with your viewers through comments. Unlike the T.V actors, they can not interact with their viewers like blogs can.
Blogging let us show our lifestyle to the world, you might not know it but blogging is a big business over seas. People can become a celebrity overnight with only a few words to say. An example of a famous Xanga celebrity would be Dawn Yang, she became a overnight star in the Singapore world because of her lifestyles and the places she dines in. We could only dreams that we can become something like that and being able to blog about it. We have yet to learn what else Xanga can bring to the table in the upcoming years.

The mirrors reflects what we want.
Define.
Why do we believe breaking a mirror could bring seven years' of bad luck? Maybe because it is believe that the soul projects into the mirrors which comes as a form of a relection which is perhaps the most widely known superstition. It is then the belief that breaking a mirror also broke the soul of those who broke it. The broken soul, is so angered at being hurt, that seven years of bad luck is a trade for such carlessness.
Can a mirror be use as relection of the heart that we hold? If they are related then the superstition related to the soul would be intervine. Like a mirror being broken, the heart of the one we broke will give us bad luck in a trade for being broken and misused. We will go through a period which life feels incomplete in a trade for being cruel.

Self.
I never broken a mirror in my life before, I should be get alot of good luck through out my life right? I never really believe in superstition because life isn't about living your life in a myth, its about living your life entirely for the moment. Something I wonder when my heart is broken will the other person feels my pain in their life? Like a broken mirror, will their soul be angered of being hurt and curse them?
I been through so much pain through out my life, this heart been broken into many pieces and glue back together many times. For once in my life I've wonder will I ever find someone to accept who I am. Giving my all and accepting everything that I would offer. But is happiness really about keeping each other hearts in one piece and not like a broken mirror? I find the heart is like a mirror...we don't want to break it because we might repay it and feel what we done.
Poem.
As I look into the mirror,
it only shows what I want to see.
The soul that reflects back,
only define what I have become.
Dark eyes stares back at me,
showing the darkness that my life have become,
This smile only fake what is real,
but yet nothing seem wrong with it,
I'm I the mirror of my image,
or the image of my mirror? -
A highway full of cars.
Define.
If life was like a highway full of cars all going straight, we wouldn't have to decide on anything in life but to follow the cars in front. The comparisons between a highway and life can be related because just like a highway, you can never drive backward at the moment you miss your exit. Just in life you may never undo the mistakes you have done but to keep moving forward, sometime we live our life in regrets hoping the next detour will lead you back on track.
Self.
I never knew a highway could say so much about life. I was inspire when I realize these two have alot in common. I can honestly say I've made many mistakes in my life only to know later I'll regret them. From the many relationships I have been in, I alway end up looking back thinking how I should of done things differently. But like a highway, you can not just pull it in reverse and undo your error. You have to take a detour which will lead you back to your destination.
No matter how long this detour takes you.
I think life isn't alway about following this highway straight just because we think it's the safest way to not get hurt. We are scared to take a detour, we may never learn from our mistakes if we don't miss some exits. I like to use a highway full of cars as a metaphor because it translate into a crowd full of people. We are alway trying to search for the perfect love on this highway, always thinking everything is straight forward. But in reality love isn't simple it's complicated, there will be potholes and bumps that will be there to slow us down when we're speeding.
There will be many detours that we will end up taking just to get to the destination of our happiness.
