Idols
Monday, November 28th, 2005Fanatic fan we would call those who lines up through out the night just to get a concert tic? or someone who would faint after manage to peek at their idols? or someone who would rent a van or bus just to follow their idols like the notorious paparazi and would scream as if the sky is going to fall (like the chicken little)?should an idol be 180++ tall, charming and beautiful? i dont think so. i would say im totally impressed by people who work with their brain. people who are able to turn dreams into realities. people like JK Rowling, Dan Brown, JRR Tolkien, Sidney Sheldon, Peter Jackson, Mike Newel or even Thomas Edison, Albert Einstein and Stephen Hawking. (sounds boring i know) but im really impressed by them. can u imagine these people hving a brain almost the same size as us, hving neurons with almost equal numbers of dendrons, hving the same voltage when action potential is generated are able to come out with something which i dont even have a chance to dream of? lets take Rowling as example..she came up with harry potter and the story line i would say spectacular…have u ever wonder the boy on the broom holding a wooden wand can make it onto the big screen with the premier over 1 million worldwide? Mike Newel affirmed it. wat about a simple ring with some unknown character carved on it would sell like hot cakes worldwide? and Peter Jackson makes everyone giving an overwhelming standing ovation in the cinema with the trilogy? lets not forget robert langdon and his code which bring glory to mr Brown. Maybe theres more but these number of guys are more than enough to impress me with their technics, perception and imagination. we tend to just enjoy what we have in front of our very eyes like feasting our popcorn in the cinema but with half of in on the floor or a missing page after reading a novel for 3 or 4 times. i dont think we would really sit and think how the hell they can come out with all these! we have the same thinking tools like they do but why we cant come up with hairy putter or slave of the ring? just kidding. i think these guys r the real idols that we shoudnt idolise blindly but we should learn from them..how to work with brain. then we’ll be as successful as them. maybe not the same field but trust me our cerebrum, cerebelum, medula oblongata and pons can work wonders. real wonders. kudos to all these people because of their magnificient discovery of either fiction or non-fiction..we get to enjoy and broaden our own thinking skills and space. maybe i should start to dream about dragons, giants, aliens and magic tonight because the people i mentioned earlier are the real idol! its not because we get to enjoy their products but because they indirectly enlighten us that human brain can create miracles. ![]()
