I remember 4 or 3 months ago when I am one of those who hurdle the excitement and do the audition for GMA's search for sole survivor Philippines. I taste the glamor being selected up to the 2nd round.Unluckily, i didn't pass the audition but I carry the experience with me and even proud that I joined such for the first time in my life. Indeed, I think I survived.
Watching every night on the episodes, I had seen how each of the contestants struggle for the 3 million. I even admire the Naak tribe for their team work that brought almost all of them to the final five.
However, Last night was quite disappointing to realize. Mommy Zita who had shown passion for work, determination, and values of faith and harmony was dismissed from the game because she was voted out by her team mates. Her dismissal in the game saddened me because of the fact that Filipinos are supposed to be known for its good values. However, looking at how the game was played, it shows, how to highlight being a traitor, to step unto others, and drag down those who could hinder us from winning.
The real meaning of winning is gaining it with whole honesty, strength, and will power coupled with perseverance. For what is winning 3 million when values are at large? Many I supposed are watching the reality TV show,the local version, and the other country's version. Many enjoyed as each tribe work hard to survived the challenged, many seemed to be fascinated with the glamorous and attractive torso of the contestants. But, did we also enjoy seeing them creating alliance and practicing the crab mentality Filipinos are known for? Did we also find it entertaining when they destroy each other for the 3 million.
What a sad scenario... Money is really the cause of evil. When everybody seemed to be needing it, they would do all that they can do in expense for their values. What is SURVIVOR then, when values are not surviving at all!

GOOFS FOR TWILIGHT
…But the closer they get, the more Edward must struggle to resist the primal pull of her scent, which could send him into an uncontrollable frenzy…
Here are list of goofs for TWILIGHT:
• From the trailer: in the first shot of Bella walking to her truck, equipment is clearly visible in the right corner.
• In the biology scene where Edward begins to talk to Bella again, the stuffed armadillo that was on the shelf behind Edward is missing. A few moments later, the armadillo is back in its spot.
• In the scene with Edward and Bella talking in the cafeteria (when she drops the apple and he catches it) it is apparent that he has pit stains. Vampires don't sweat, or omit any other kind of bodily fluids.
• As Edward is driving away from the street thugs, you can see his car clearly has Oregon license plates. If you miss the name, Washington state standard plates have Mt. Rainier on them, while Oregon standard plates have an evergreen tree in the middle.
• When Edward is up in the tree looking down at Bella, the distance his body is from hers changes between shots. In the close-up shot, his face is almost right in front of hers (below the branches), but from the normal shot, he's holding himself much higher up (above the branches).
• Throughout the movie you can see the vampire's breath. This should not be able to happen as they are so cold.
• When Alice pitched to Edward in the baseball scene, the runner is running from second base before she even throws the ball. Then after Edward hits the ball, the runner is seen again just leaving second base.
• While Bella is in the hospital (for the second time) it shows the first shot of her eyes and nose. She has oxygen tubes running to her nose. The tubes are over top of her eyes, but when the camera zooms out the tubes are nowhere near her eyes. Then it zooms back in and the tubes are at her eyes again, and so on.
• In the meadow scene, only Edward's face is glowing. Parts of his chest and neck are also in the sunlight, but fail to sparkle as they should.
• While in the greenhouse, the amount of "tea" for the plants in the mug changes between shots. It starts with a full glass in the first shot, and is barely over halfway full in the next shot.
• When playing baseball and Victoria states that she has a mean curve-ball and Jasper replies, he has a slight Southern drawl, which makes sense because Jasper is from the South during the Civil War time period, but later on this accent has disappeared.
• Kristen Stewart's mike was clearly visible between the hem of her shirt and the waist of her pants when Charlie takes Bella to her bedroom in the beginning.
• Throughout the entire movie the vampires' contact lenses are clearly visible in close ups. For example, during Bella's flashback after the car accident, you see a close-up of Edward's eye - the outer rim of the contacts Robert Pattinson is wearing is distinctly visible.
• When Edward drops Bella off at the police station on the way back from Port Angeles, she doesn't have her bag, which contained the book she picked up from the book store that she uses later on to research the "cold ones".
• When Edward is talking to Rosalie and Carlisle in the hospital after saving Bella, Robert Pattinson's British accent slips when he says "did you expect me to let her die?"
• During the baseball scene after the 3 nomads arrive, Carlisle tosses the baseball to Laurent which is caught by Victoria. Immediately afterward, you can see Emmet toss the baseball into the air.
• When Bella is asking Edward questions about how you become a vampire down by the river, you see her lips moving when they shouldn't be and not moving when they should.
• During the beach scene, Jacob and his two friends come up and after one of the friends tells Bella that 'The Cullens don't come here,' you can see his mouth moving as though he's saying more.
• In the scene where Charlie tells Bella that her mom called again, at the end when Bella leaves the room you hear Charlie say 'All right', but his lips do not move.
• In the scene when Bella leaves Charlie for Phoenix, her headlights are on and illuminating the garage door, but when she drives by the camera, her lights are off.
• When Bella is trying to escape James and the car she is in with Alice and Jasper pulls up to the entry of the hotel, there are men with guitars walking into the hotel. It then flashes to Alice, Jasper, and Bella in the hotel room. They have obviously settled in and have had a conversation so some time has passed. Then there is another shot of the hotel entrance and the last guy with the guitar is just going through the entrance even though a lot of time has passed. They obviously used the same shot of the people entering the hotel before and after the scene of Alice, Jasper, and Bella in the room.
