    Rizal‚ my Hero! “A hero is a man who is afraid to run away - (English Proverb)”. Indeed‚ a man who has a brave heart would not choose to run away but instead give the good fight he can give.

Every hero has its own exemplary deeds but for me‚ Rizal‚ is one of the best Heros because of his patriotic services in his country. From his writings

    My fair lady When I started watching this movie in the class‚ I thought it would be a little bit boring and it is just kind of classical old movie. But it was not true. ‘My fair lady’ was really interesting and a great enjoyment to me. As soon as the movie started‚ Eliza Doolittle’s voice brought me to attention to the movie.
