Leon (Ka) by EZ Mil

My favorite motivational song at the moment.

The melody and the message makes me want to keep on working on my dreams. One of those dreams is to have this blog have 100 unique visitors per day.

I love every line, my favorite of course is the chorus, especially the last one:

Dama ng mundo ang bangis mo! Bangis ng Leon! (Leon!)
Ilabas mo ang tirada ng Pinoy
Na walang mintis! Lahat pinapanis!
Nadama ng mundo ang bangis mo! Bangis ng Leon! (Leon!)
Ikaw ang hari ng kwento mo. Napaka bangis mo!

English translation:
The world feels your ferocity! Ferocity of the Lion! (Lion!)
Let out the Pinoy’s strike
That never misses! Makes everyone look weak!
The world feels your ferocity! Ferocity of the Lion! (Lion!)
You’re the king of your story. You’re so fierce!

Surf's Up

 

One of my all time favorite animated movies. It's so funny and inspiring. I don't know how many times I've watched it. Video above shows some of my favorite scenes. I love the part and the background music when he was chasing the whale. I also love the part when he said this line:

"I understand my mom's judgemental. I think it's 'cause she cares partially, and I think it's also partially because everyone else is looking at her like, 'hey, cody's just a bum. cody's this. cody's that. cody's this.'

Cody's me, bro. Let me be me."
