Power of Songs
Songs can make us feel happy, sometimes by listening to it we might suddenly feel sad, sometimes it could really boost our spirit beyond the limit. personally, songs do have impact on me. When I listen to a sad song, my mood will change and I will just sink in the mood created by the song.
Songs indeed can change people or the least to motivate people to change. Songs like "Firework" by Katy Perry is one of the inspirational songs that suggest people to express themselves rather than just remain introvert and succumb to the expectation set upon them.
It is not an easy job to motivate people to change for the better. Songs might be the best way to motivate them as songs not only something that everyone loves to listen to but the manipulation of the lyrics by the song writer to motivate people is something that we should pay attention to. Good lyrics with interesting beat together with popular singer will create impact for the listener with the message hidden in the beautifully composed lyrics.

Leader's Qualities
1) The usage of persuasive language
2) High level of confidence
3) Exploitation of sensitive issues
4) Strong eye contact with audiences
5) The choice of words
Those are the common leader qualities that make us believe in their speeches and believe in their ability to be our leader. We must be very careful in choosing the right leader and not simply fall for these qualities as they can develop these qualities just to get our trust and believe.
Animal Farm-The Animated
This story is more than just an entertainment to me. Though it was presented in an animated form, but the messages hidden are well conveyed. The story is written long ago but still it is relevance with our modern society. Just look at how people crave for power and they tend to misuse the power given to them without any regard to the people who believed in them that made them have the power. Human are easily swayed with power and money. They will do anything as long as they can remain indulge themselves with luxury life. Just like the pigs in this story, once they have experienced how enjoyable their life could be by staying in the house, they were no longer concern about other animals welfare as Napoleon once promised them that all animal will be taken care of with good care.
The pigs in the story manipulate the animals in the farm as they please. They even manipulate the seven commandments which can be considered as their set of rules after they took over the farm. Napoleon also killed some animals that became a threat to his government. Just like what happened in our world today, people is killed without reason just to cover bad things that they have committed. The corruption in leadership is not a new thing, it already exists long time ago when human started to corrupt inside.
After watching this movie, I realized that the problems that we are facing today is actually came from us. We are too ignorant to see all these are coming in our way. We shouldn't take anyone for granted because everyone changes and that is our nature as human.
