Dottie over at Tink's Place posted the latest MMFC image for the week. I just came back in cycling with MMFFC after a very LO-ONG absence. I plan to do the previous pictures though just to build the story. :D So far I had done eight 'episodes.' I'm still thinking of a title. For rules to join the challenge, head over to Tink's Place. :D The challenge image:
Plot bunnies start working! Six days and counting....
This coming November 2, the group will be releasing their latest album called "Rediscovered" in Norway and I hope the rest of the world won't be far behind. :D Their latest single "Trust Me" has a infectious beat about trust. As I listened more to the song, it appeared like we were in the middle of the story of what's happening between these two individuals. :D "Trust Me" is written by Mark Read, Thomas Kongshavn, Frida Amundsen and Knut Anders Sorum. The video was directed by Marcus Olsen.
This is their official music video of the song released October 27, 2012. Go check it out!
You can pre-listen to the tracks included in the "Rediscovered," here. For more updates from a1 follow them on Twitter and Facebook.

Don't you just love the cover! Credit to Cecilie Harris. Name all the toys you can find! :D
Tracks
The 30-sec pre-listened was such a GREAT tease for us. I'm liking every track and "Star Lights" is a track that caught my attention. Heck, all of them. :) I can't wait to get a copy of the album. I'm hoping that they'll be releasing it here in the Philippines when they come over for the benefit show in Cebu in line with YoungLife Healthcare and Education Foundation Philippines.

This song was played during "Les Soeurs D'estrees" episode. I had to turn on Google Translate and it means "The Sisters Distress." I hope that was correct. I'm beginning to be a huge fan of Kyler England now. Visit her site and check out her songs in iTunes and Amazon.
This episode of Switched at Birth had me gripping the arm rests. I'm still rooting for Daphne at Emmett to be together but it was starting to be a moot point. Emmett loves Bay now and while Daphne missed the chance of seeing Emmett other than being a very good friend, well, that ship has clearly sailed. It was fun to see Daphne's daydream tho. I really thought that she and Emmett had gotten back to being more than friends but the dream sequence was only a dream. I didn't catch on the difference though between the real scene and dream. I was too involved on Daphne and Emmett to notice the feathery look of the background and how incredibly sunny when sunlight streamed from the window behind them. haha.
So excited! This is one of the movies I'm looking forward to this year. December opening is going to be a packed with people. I wonder if I'll find some avid costumers in LOTR glory at the opening in town. I know in the big cities like in Manila there will be. I hear members from The Philippine Tolkien Society will have booths at the movie's opening. Anyone here from the south too?
BRITROYAL are UK singer/songwriter twin brothers Kais and Mazin Shammas. You can found more about these talented guys by checking out their website.
I was quite surprised when I got a follow from them on Twitter and of course, being a music fan, I followed back. :D Follow them on Twitter. I like most of their songs found on their home page. I even can imagine these tracks become a background music for a scene in TV. I'm looking forward for more from the group. Wow, meeting and getting to work with J.R. Richards of Dishwalla must have been a awesome experience.

Commentary: I love the colors and it's practically a perfect corner with a window and ample of natural light too. The bookcase is easy within reach with selected books and then if you get tired reading, you can get to your bunk bed above. :D I just love having a potted plant beside it, the corner feels so inviting.
With "The Hobbit: The Unexpected Journey" ready to enthrall us this December, I decided to get into the spirit. I took down very old posters of music groups and movie posters when we were in the middle of rehabilitating our house.
Summary:
Raised on the streets of turn-of-the century London, orphaned Pete and his pals survived but their fearless wits as cunning young pickpockets. Now, they are rounded up by their mentor, Jimmy Hook to snatch a priceless, some believe,magical treasure which transports them to another world. Neverland is a realm of white jungles and legendary mysteries of eternal youth, where unknown friends and enemies snatched from time welcome the new travelers with both excitement and trepidation. These groups include a band of 18th century pirates led by the power-mad Elizabeth Bonny, and the Native American Kaw tribe led by a Holy Man, which has protected the secret of the tree spirits from Bonny and her gang for ages, and that has meant war. But as the fight to save this strange and beautiful world becomes vital, Hook, Peter, and the ragamuffin lost boys consider that growing old somewhere in time could be less important than growing up, right here in their new home called Neverland.
My Thoughts
This two-parter presentation held an interesting origins tale of a well-beloved fairy tale, Peter Pan. The movie jumped right in by showing us a mysterious hooded man, a tree spirit and two glowing meteorites that questions abound so fast to the point I couldn't help but let the action roll out. The opening music held that bit of wonder and lent even the power these rushing meteorites have.
One thing that puzzled me was how the orb landed in the Spanish Main? The answer I could think of was 400 years back (a tinsy spoiler) Fludd must have an assistant then but unfortunately through the years lost the alpha orb (for the lack of the better description) that it found it's way to the Indian tribe then the alpha orb traveled to the Spanish route where it found itself almost in the hands of Elizabeth and her pirate crew. The orb would have been a part of her booty had she not fired a shot on it that transported her and her crew elsewhere.
I was doing my usual rounds in Facebook and this pic caught my attention. Shared from Once Upon A Time Facebook wall. The quote I guess depends on one's POV but I think for every author, screenwriter, play writer etc a simple walk out to town or to the park may help ignite inspiration for your next hit. Hope you all have great Wednesday! I just love that idea that pigeon turned into a dragon! hehee
I was able to get a copy of his latest album Fires around two weeks ago and I'm loving every track. Review will be coming up soon. I don't want to read too much into the lyrics (since it's not my/our place) considering what he went through in his personal life then (I only read one news article and that was it), though the song made me think about his reconciliation attempts with his wife, Viv.
