This morning as I was packing lunch, about to leave for work, my boyfriend danced into the kitchen singing a made up song consisting of only my name over and over. When he saw me, he turned red and said "Oh, you're still here". Sneaking a peak in the daily routine of someone who really loves me GMH.

I love how people are still giving each other unconditional love whenever I think there was nothing remains. Found this on www.givesmehope.com.

We're Paratroopers, Lieutenant. We're supposed to be surrounded.


This is the story of WW II, told from the 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment 101st Airborne Division 2nd Battalion Easy Company men's point of views. This HBO's miniseries are based on true story. This has been my obsession these past few weeks! Like, where else would you find a war movie with good war humors and jokes with 98% accuracy of the history and the best part is... good-looking macho men with guns?? So yeah, one of the BEST miniseries/movie of all-time. This is a must-watch and I suggest you guys really should watch this. Anyway, if you don't like harsh or sarcastic jokes and language you prolly shouldn't. But hell, this is a fun way to learn history. Here are some quotes taken from imdb.com so you would know what's it gonna like.

Cpt. Nixon: Hitler's dead. Liebgott: Holy shit. Cpt. Nixon: Shot himself in Berlin. Sgt. Denver 'Bull' Randleman: Is the war over, sir? Cpt. Nixon: No. We have orders to Berchtesgaden. We move out in one hour. Pvt. David Kenyon Webster: Why? The man's not home. He should have killed himself three years ago. Saved us a lot of trouble. Cpt. Nixon: Yeah, he should have. But he didn't.

Donald Malarkey: [the men are going over Heffron and Spina's run-in with the German in the foxhole] He shoulda shot Hinkel in the ass. Warren Muck: Then he woulda shot *him* in the ass. [the men start laughing] Pvt. Edward 'Babe' Heffron: [Domingus comes around with stale pancakes and shovels them into everyone's mess tin] Hey, God bless ya. Donald Malarkey: Joe, these smell like my armpit! Warren Muck: [holding up one of the pancakes] At least your armpit's warm. Joe Domingus: You want syrup with that? Donald Malarkey: Joe, be honest, what's in these things anyway, huh? Joe Domingus: Nothing you won't eat, Malarkey. [he walks away] Pvt. Ralph Spina: I won't eat Malarkey. [they all start laughing again] Pvt. John T. Julian: Hey, hey, maybe Hinkel would like your share, huh? Pvt. Edward 'Babe' Heffron: I shoulda shot him when I had the chance. Warren Muck: What, running backwards, Babe? 2nd Lt. Thomas Peacock: [Lt. Peacock walks up] Anybody seen Lieutenant Dike? Donald Malarkey: Uh, try battalion CP, sir. [Peacock walks away, and the men start giggling once he is out of earshot] Warren Muck: Try Paris. Donald Malarkey: Try Hinkel. [they all crack up again] Pvt. Ralph Spina: [Spina puts on a bad German accent and makes to hug Heffron] Hinkel, sveetie, I'm home! Pvt. Edward 'Babe' Heffron: [Heffron turns to Doc Roe, who is sitting nearby] Hey Eugene, Lieutenant Dike's got a full aid kit, try him. Donald Malarkey: Yeah, I'm sure he's not usin' his. [the men laugh again] Pvt. John T. Julian: Maybe Hinkel's got a syrette for ya. Warren Muck: Eat your strudel. Donald Malarkey: [in his own bad German accent] Hey, Hinkel-Vinkel, eat ze armpit, huh?

Richard Winters: We're not lost, Private... we're in Normandy.

George Luz: Hey Janovek, whatcha reading? John Janovek: An article. George Luz: No shit. What's it about? John Janovek: It's about why we're fighting the war. George Luz: Why are we fighting the war, Janovek? John Janovek: It appears the Germans are bad, very bad. George Luz: You don't say! The Germans are bad, huh? [Turns to Perconte] George Luz: Hey Frank, this guy is reading an article that says the Germans *are bad*.

Alex Penkala: Joe got hit in the arm? New Year's Eve gift from the Luftwaffe. Ken Webb: Have a lot of you guys been injured? Sgt. Martin: It's called "wounded," Peanut. "Injured" is when you fall out of a tree or something. Warren Muck: Don't worry, there so much crap flying around, you're bound to get dinged sometime. Almost every one of these guys got hit at least once. Except for Ally, he's a two-timer. He landed on broken glass in Normandy, and got peppered by a potato masher. Now, Bull... he got a piece of exploding tank in Holland. Now George Luz here... has never been hit. You're one lucky bastard. George Luz: Takes one to know one, Skip. Warren Muck: Huh, considered us blessed. Now Leibgott, the skinny little guy? He got pinged in the neck in Holland. And right next to him, the other skinny little guy, that's Popeye. He got shot in his scrawny little butt in Normandy. And, uh, Buck got shot in his rather large butt in Holland. Alex Penkala: Yeah, kind of an Easy Company tradition, getting shot in the ass. Warren Muck: Hey, even First Sergeant Lipton there, he got a couple of pieces of a tank shell burst in Carentan. One chunk in the face, the other chunk nearly took out his nuts. Bill Guarnere: How are those nuts, Sarge? Carwood Lipton: They're doing fine, Bill. Nice of you to ask.

David Webster: [at a passing column of German prisoners] Hey, you! That's right, you stupid Kraut bastards! That's right! Say hello to Ford, and General fuckin' Motors! You stupid fascist pigs! Look at you! You have horses! What were you thinking? Dragging our asses half way around the world, interrupting our lives... For what, you ignorant, servile scum! What the fuck are we doing here?

Richard Winters: Captain Sobel, we salute the rank, not the man.

Richard Winters: We're paratroopers, Lieutenant. We're supposed to be surrounded.
