Kinda a weird combination of tastes, as they used the batter for the BBF to coat the Mars bar. So you taste the slightly salty crispy batter coat, before chewing the sweet chocolate-y Mars bar with caramel inside. Then combined the slightly warm mars bar with the cold ice-cream... something different la, I will say.
at least not as disappointing as the BBF...

on can I be a Sopie Scholl?
hmm, that's the question I've asked myself after watching the film about 2 weeks back. Dare I speak up for morality and my beliefs, in the face of oppression and threat of death?
Honestly, I don't think I have that courage. In an age where we emphasize individuality and creativity, I think the system has instilled within me the herd mentality, of going with the flow, or following the masses, if you will.
When I see the dramatisation of how the young members of the White Rose movement struggled to use peaceful means to invoke the people to awaken to their conscience, it just moved me. In the age where one had no internet and under war-stricken times, the White Rose produced hundreds of hand-printed letters and pamphlets. The determination to get the message across, no matter what the response of the reader might be, or whatever the cost, just stirred within me deep emotions for these martyrs.
In the cross-examination scenes, where Sopie has the dialogue of debating the state of affairs in Germany under Nazi rule, we see the strength and weakness of Sophie in her replies to the German inquisitor. Strength of her convictions and beliefs in a Higher Good; "weakness" in her compassion and humanity towards the plights of the Jews, the handicapped and her fellow citizens of the nation.
To me, these are the kind of qualities that God moulds His people to be under difficult times. Personally, I have grown fat under "peace-time" conditions. I've really forgotten that out there, there are brothers and sisters suffering and dying for the cross... I need to realign my allegiance back to the King of All creation, and to seriously start considering what my purpose is on this earth.
