what i learned: the big short

as a very distant topic to my college education, banks, how they operate, bonds and mortgage, i saw The Big Short yesterday. based on a true story, it turns out that the mortgage crisis that struck the us out of nowhere was not a sudden meteorite observed in skies.  the ambitious duo from their parents garage ended up learning about this huge system crack started to ac on it while getting help from an ex-very accomplished-banker who worked for Bear Stanley, one the biggest investment banks which ended up filing for bankruptcy. the point was this guy, normally a recluse and suspects that intelligence always watchs him, was the neighbor of that duo where they met and became friends while walking their dogs. again provided advantage from the parents. Lewis Ranieri who started the system of getting profit from mortgages and in time it turns out in a way that even though the buyer has no income whatsoever the bond was approved meaning maybe the level of the bond is BBB or C or D. th...

Ballerina Who Loved a B-Boy

Ethereal. Otherworldly. Out of this world.   Words can't do justice to this mix of ballet and break dance-hip hop performance from Korea.   Playwright and director Choi Yunyeop did an amazing job of presenting this modern dance form to the ever-classical ballet audience in a captivating and jaw-dropping way. it's basically a hand-stand pirouette! Talk about aerial position, height and stamina. This is 90 minutes no-intermission show where all dancers present almost all the time. And it's a totally different level of effort for all  these moves. As you get washed away with awe, suddenly ballerina gets haunted by her demons for maybe to stop her falling for b-boy.  While you were thinking this show can't get any better, they haunt you too.  The eccentric moves send shivers just like when Kafka's Gregor Samsa awoke one morning from uneasy dreams he found himself transformed in his bed into a gigantic ...

coach: sent from God

one athlete, Maria Titova, shines through everyone  by showing her human side. when she was told to pack things and go home, she did after probably plus 10 years in the sport. eventually she became a champion, 5th in World ranking in 2014 season. this time i came across this gem from RT Documentary, "Winner Takes it All: Pain and Gain of Russian Rhythmic Gymnasts" i must confess, i found it very suprising that all the athletes praised the head coach, Irina Viner-Usmanova saying she was literally God sent. i think its a must-see for everyone who wonders what it takes to be great in almost anything; the long hours, unyielding resistance and pushing one's limits.

disgrace to ballet world

its really horrendous to see that ballet is being used for some idiotic purposes. im talking about the -so called- new internet sensation drama series Fiçipi. lead girl having an affair with the artistic director as the show opens. what a suprise! prima ballerina with a hint of bribe while Black Swan clearly showed its not the best idea especially if you are a ballerina. this is how actual ballet looks like: paınful the lead who is nothing but the looks somehow gets to be the prima ballerina where she spends days and nights practising... right?  she drinks starbucks all day and all she does is being late to practices. it is a pain to see endless efforts of all ballets and ballerinas to be blown away in exchange of an affair aside from the male lead being a stalker and narsisstic patient, this is a loathsome show and a disgrace to all ballet world.
