The Prince & Me
Sacrifice. We hear this word and think we understand it until we're really faced with the choice. I know for certain that I am very stubborn when it comes to making a sacrifice. Maybe this is why sometimes I can't accomplish some of the things I so long for. Sacrifice costs us too much. But is it not worth it in the end?
My heart was almost breaking as I watched the main characters from The Prince & Me. Paige had her precious dreams and plans of what she wanted to do in her life. Fate brought her a real Prince Charming. But is finding true love enough to sacrifice all your dreams...the ones that make you who you are?
She realizes that "love doesn’t come around everyday, and when it does, you gotta grab it and hold on." So she leaves her old life to start a new one close to the one she loves.
But when she truly faces the reality of the choice of sacrificing who she is, even for the sake of true love, she realizes she can't do it. I wouldn't like to be placed in that situation. But even myself, with all my romantic imaginations, think I would have done the same.
I love Prince Edvard's speech after his coronation ceremony when he addresses the nation, but he might as well be speaking straight from his heart to Paige's heart.
"Today marks a profound, though bittersweet, milestone for all of us as we bear witness to both an end and a beginning. And while we must continue on, we must also be grateful to have been blessed with someone who has so ably guided us to where we are today. When there has been so much love and happiness for someone it is natural to be reluctant to close such a wonderful chapter in our lives. For moving forward, is rarely accomplished without considerable grief and sadness. And while our sorrow may be profound the clouds will clear and the sun will shine on us again. And in that warm, bright light we will find ourselves facing a glorious future. A future of exciting challenges and infinite possibility in which the horizon will stretch out before us rimmed in the heavenly glow of the sunrise of our tomorrow."
But is this how the movie should end...how a story of true love should end? I love happy endings. And I got one. All's well that ends well. Even through hardships and difficult decision-making times...I think I would choose the sacrifice if it means I'll get to be one with the person I love.

Ravings of a Picky Girl
There I go again...floating on the sweet waters of my romantic dreams. This narrow river seems to go on and on. Will it ever bring me to the ocean home? Am I close or still too far away? I close my eyes and fill my lungs with beautiful prayers. I will be still...I know He'll lead me there someday.

Crazy Little [Dreams]
Henry Thomas had a secret crush on me...until the day I figured it out when he shyly came over to where I was sitting and asked me if he could brush my hair. I smiled. I was happy. He ran off in search of a hairbrush. (O_o)???

We're finally back from Miami...I'll be able to sleep in my own bed...nice!
(^_-)v
We did very well at Yasumicon at FIU this past weekend...and we had a chance to meet new people and make contacts...so it looks like Cosplay Kingdom will be very busy working on other cool projects as well!!! Yeay! \(^_^)/ Plus, we have to get ready for AWA in Atlanta in September and Otakucon in Miami Beach this coming December.
Bad experiences from the trip?! Well, the van broke down twice...and we had to wait over 2 hours under the Miami heat for a tow truck...these incidents delayed our drive back home...but God knows better...everything happens for a reason.
Here are a few pics from the adventure in Miami. Enjoy!
