• 1. It is possible to experience love at first sight.
I disagree with this statement 100%, even most of the population in the world actually experiences love at first sight,, but I personally think it is pathetic, how can someone look at an other human being and in that instant you fall in love and get married. You don’t get a chance to get to know the person well enough for example their hobbies intrests and many more things.
• 2. Two complete strangers stuck on a deserted island could learn to love one another.
I agree with this statement because gradually they both learn to depend on one an other and more than that they both learn to share. I think though it’s also how they are the only human beings on that island, and both individuals know that they wont be rescued for a while so they do end up in love
• 3. It is a good thing to sacrifice your happiness for the desire of others.
I disagree with this statement because what is the point of life without maybe happiness or laughter, it’s the thing that let’s you enjoy life. Also to do something to make others happy doesn’t mean that you won’t be happy with that decision, but you could end up doing harm to yourself by sacrificing your happiness' for others.
• 4.Women in your society are free citizens.
I agree and disagree with this statement, I agree with this because I've seen many couples that get in too many arguments but they still have this click, like a connection that makes them be together even more. I disagree with this statement because many Cypriot men treat their wives like they are nothing and I don’t know the reason but they don’t answer back or divorce them.

The Outsiders
For once in my life I actually enjoyed the book comparison to the movie, when I first watched the movie just when we started to read the book, I found it to be quite good, it was a bit long but I enjoyed it. After a few days when we got deeper into the story I was changing perspectives, whilst reading it, it was like reading a completely different book comparison to the movie. The book revealed lots more than the movie, I could understand the characters so much more,and I also favored the book more because it was first-person view, so it was easier to understand, its like S.E Hinton was bringing these characters to life. I enjoyed the book much more than the film for many reasons, but one thing that does make me quite furious in all scenarios is when the author describes and makes up a character, and then the director of the film makes him/her completely the opposite, for example:
The character Johnny in the Outsiders book was very interesting, S.E Hinton characterized him as a normal teenager, that likes to hang out more with his pals (the gang) than his parents, he could be very courageous and brave most of the times and he shows it very well, for instance when Johnny was with Ponyboy at the park just walking around the block and the Socs came he acted so tough by taking a cigarette out of his pocket, and pulling his sleeves up. In the film its like his a different character. One other thing that really annoyed me was Sodapop’s part in the film, by that I mean, he was so important to Ponyboy, and obviously Ponyboy was the protagonist, so he Should have played a very big and important role in the movie, but he doesn’t, he briefly plays a role in the movie. There were many small and big things that disappointed me, but mostly it was the movie.

Film Review
You Scream You Die
Director: James Wan
Writers: Leigh Whannell and James Wan
Stars: Ryan Kwanten, Amber Valleta, Donnie Walhberg, Micheal Fairman, Bob Gunton, and Laura Regan.
Language:English
The director for this movie is called James Wan, he is the same director for the movies called SAW. There are many film genres for this film but the 3 main ones that best describe this film are Horror, Thriller and mystery, it was released in the United states on the 16th of March 2007. This movie is about a creator of dolls and ventriloquist dummies called Mary Shaw a scary old lady, they are alive and have human life form. It all starts when Jamie gets married to his wife called Ella, and everything is going perfectly fine, until one stormy, cold, windy night, there were two very loud knocks at their door. They both asked who could that be, opening the door slowly and peeking their heads out they realized that it was just a big black box, but no sign of anybody. They brought it in, put it on the table and looked at the note that came with the box but it only had an address on it, it was where Jamie used to live as a young boy. They opened the box and were stunned to find that it was a ventriloquist dummie, they both laughed, took it as a joke and put it on a chair near by. After a while Jamie decides to have a shower, whilst Ella is cooking dinner, during the long time period he was in the shower a loud scream is heard and a heavy thud to the floor. He rushes out hurridly and runs towards the bedroom, whilst rushing he slipped and knocked his head on the floor, but what he didn’t know was that he slipped in a puddle of Ellas' blood, quickly getting up and avoiding the pain he looks up to the bed and realises his wife is dead. After dealing with the police trying to convince them that he didn’t kill her, he decides to go back to where he used to live and find out where the ventriloquist dummie came from.
This movie was not only very creative but also smartly written, the characters are perfect for this specific film. This movie is a big mystery and keeps you guessing until the very end. This film gives viewers a very strong introduction on what the film is basically about and is full of suspense, it is so powerful that if you wanted to go to the bathroom you wouldn’t be able because it is so intresting and intriguing. The music for this film is ideal it is all original and customized. I really think this movie is great and I would definately recommend it, even if he/she doesn’t enjoy or like scary movies, you will definately become engrossed within the first 5 minutes of the film.
N.B. This movie cannot be watched without… having a pillow to cover the eyes during the really scary moments, and gaurantees not only suspense but a movie that is gripping and full of unexpected scenes.

The weekly Crunkicle
Today's breaking news is absolutly terrifying, a swamp of killer hamsters at Coral Bay fleeded from a small hole beneath the sand, a fellow young child called Brad took an estimation of how many hamster's there were, and his estimation was... Round about... 4. Most of the population at the beach are diving into the sea, and some are trying to hide underneath the sand. A policeman happened to be at the scene eating mini dohgnuts with chocolate sauce and a hanfull of sprinkles, he couldn't belive the disaster so he called backup. S.W.A.T teams, local policemen, and helicopters got at the scene as soon as they could, we dont know what will happen but our lives depend on S.W.A.T teams, local policemen, helicopters, and the man still sunbathing.

Eric Cantona
Eric Daniel Pierre Cantona was born on the the 24th of May in 1966, you can tell by his name he is french footballer, he started his career during the late 1980s and 1990s, he finished his career at Manchester United, and whilst playing there he won four premiership titles in five years. Cantona was so commited in playing football and being the best he was voted player of the century in 2001.
Years
1938-1988 - Auxerre
1985-1986 - Martigues
1988-1991 - Marseile
1989 - Bordeaux
1989-1990 - Montpellier
1991 - Nimes
1992 - Leeds United
1992-1997 - Manchester United
After leaving Nimes in 1991 he took a flight to England hoping to play for Liverpool but it didn’t happen. Instead he went to a trial for Sheffield United managed by Trevor Francis. Today Sheffield United is known as Leeds United A.F.C. During his time in Leeds United they won the final old first division championship in 1991-1992, he was mainly a substitute but contributed a lot to the team. Just before the league started were everyone was trading and bying new players, Sir Alex Ferguson the manager of Manchester United, asked for the availibility of a defender Dennis Irwin, but the manager of Leeds united refused, and then he asked for the availibility of Eric Cantona, and in 1992 he started to play for Manchester United.
Eric Cantona got of to a straight start he played forward and was doing a good job of it, his first goal was against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on December 19, 1992. Cantona was playing brilliantly for Manchester United he showed a lot of class in all his games, and was a great teammate. For the next two years the team was on an amazing run, they won the Premiership in 1993, and continued to be the best team in the league. In 1994 he was voted for PFA player of the year, but in the following season a dramatic incident happened on January 25, 1995, in a match against Crystal Palace. Eric Cantona was sent of by the referee for a brutal tackle on the defender Richard Shaw, whilst being escorted off the pitch a fan of Crystal Palace, Mathew Simmons must of swore at him, and Cantona dived into the fans with a kung-fu kick followed by 2 punches. Cantona was sentenced to 120 hours of community service, 2 weeks in prison, and was suspended by Manchester United, he also had to pay a fine of 10,000 pounds. After his suspension was finished he decided to leave English football, the Manchester United players and Sir Alex Ferguson begged him not to leave, but his decision was final. After that though he started to play for national football, and played for France for a year, after that he was going to retire.
Eric Daniel Pierre Cantona has influenced me dramatically, I still think that he is one of the most amazing and best player’s in the world, I think he should have continued to play for Manchester United or an other team in the Primier league, because I think he could have made history.
