Movie Review: Theory of Everything


What's up, guys!!!!! Ok for today I'm gonna make a review for a film entitled 'THEORY OF EVERYTHING'. This is a romantic story between Stephen Hawking who is a Ph.D. student of Astrology in the University of Cambridge and Jane Wilde who is also a Ph.D. student of literature in French. This film taught the viewers about the value of perseverance shown by Jane Wilde while handling his husband, Stephen Hawking who suffered a motor-neurone disease. Mmmmm🙎🙎🙎 I've always wondered has Stephen suffered the disease since in his childhood and had to use the speaking-inator since then? The answer is no.
This is because he suffered the disease soon after he had a head injury after had an accident at his university.

FUN FACT: This film is adapted from the memoir wrote by Jane Wilde Hawking Travelling to Infinity: My Life with Stephen


So, patience does have a limit when Stephen live longer than he should, Jane sometimes felt annoyed and fed up when had to handle Stephen because what she wanted is a normal life and everything changed when she met Jonathan at church. Jonathan assigns Jane to be in the church choir group and he willing to teach Jane's son to play the piano. Jane and Jonathan become closer day by day because almost all house chores they've done together.  This made Stephen feel sad because he can't do what Jonathan can do and his relationship with Jane is not too close like before. He contracted pneumonia when he attends to an opera performance at Bordeaux and this causes him to undergo tracheotomy and will make him unable to speak. Even though he had a disability to talk and had to use built up voice computer to communicate, this not stop him to be successful and he managed to write a book 'A Brief History of Time' and it had won the International Best Seller Award. 


THREE INTERESTING WORDS

1. IMPREGNABLE- unable to be destroyed
Sir Arthur who is the knight of Zathura Kingdom had never lost in every war because he is impregnable
2. PREPOSTEROUS- absolutely ridiculous 
Wright Brothers had been teased and be laughed by all of their villagers when they tried to make people fly by inventing the aeroplane because the villagers thought the idea is preposterous.
3. ENDEAVOR- try hard to achieved something
The Malaysian football team is endeavoring to win the match against South Korea to qualify them to the final stage of FIFA World Cup. 



One lesson I learned from the movie is hard work will pay us. If we keep giving excuses without trying we would not achieve the target in our life. This lesson had successfully been showed by Stephen Hawking when he suffered the motor-neurone disease. He had a disability to walk properly and had to use crutches to move from his hostel to the university. If I was in his shoes I might give up and maybe could not complete my studies but not for Stephen, he managed to complete his thesis and his professors were really amazed by his thesis and awarded him as Doctor of Philosophy in Astrology. As time passes by, his diseases becoming worst and he had to use a wheelchair everywhere but still not made him lose his hope to prove his theory about Black Hole.

Hello

     What's up, guys!!!!! Hello and hi to all my blog readers. To be honest this is my first blog since I've existed in this world. So please don't get bored with my posts because I'm new here. Before I proceed I would like to share my experience when I'm registered at KKTM  Lenggong for MARA American Degree Preparatory Program (MADPP). A week ago I received a text message that informed me to check whether I'm qualified to continue my studies under MADPP at KKTM Lenggong.



The place that I will stay for another 8 months


 I was really excited to know the result. My heart pumping really fast when I opened the link. Alhamdulillah, I am really grateful when I got the result. Hurray!!!!!!!!!! I will register on 3rd of May. So there will be a lot of work to do in this week before I register there. This is what a hectic life would be. So brace yourself there are still a lot of work to do. I hope that I will not regret the choice I made because this is one of the fastest routes for me to become a criminalist in Forensic Science. It was a cold morning at Lenggong. My family and I arrived there approximately at 8.00 because we head to Lenggong at 4.30 a.m. There were only a few who arrived early at KKTM Lenggong. The Early bird catches the worm so I'd finished my registration at 9 o'clock in the morning and had a lot of time to make up my room and enjoy my leisure time with my family before they returned to Putrajaya.
