Oompa Loompa Sing~Along


I do believe with the Oompa Loompas' words. They are truly intelligent. That's why Willy Wonka use their helps. I love Willy Wonka, I just want to hang out with him, hug him and kiss him all day long.

SO SHINES A GOOD DEED IN A WEARY WORLD......
EVERLASTING ETERNITY 
SOUL MATES, LOVERS, BFF, FOREVER AND EVER!!
Remember the Everlasting Gobstopper, it not only changes colors and flavors, but can never be finished,  and never even gets smaller.  It's a symbolic form of the connection between friends, lovers or families, you name it, it will never fade. But you have to guard it with your life, and believe in it. That's the test Willie Wonka gave to the children who went to the factory. You cannot give it to anyone, Charlie gave it back in the end & he WON! Because he is a honest, innocent and pure hearted person, better than all the others. I believe in the Everlasting Gobstopper, it's been there in my heart since the day I was born. It's in everybody's heart. I do hope everybody still got it there, and they wouldn't and will not give it up for things that's not important.

Elephants love / Love Elephants


 Keep the Faith

Facts That Will Make You Love Elephants 

1. They console each other in times of stress by “hugging”.
According to researchers, elephants hug by putting their trunks in each other’s mouths, offering comfort through physical contact.
2. They mourn their dead.
Wild elephants will stand silently at the bodies of their dead companions, sometimes for days on end. Later, they may return and pay homage to their bones.
3. They can recognize themselves in a mirror.
That might not sound like a big deal, but humans learn to do this only when we’re toddlers, and the only other animals who can do it are dolphins, great apes and magpies.
4. They live in matriarchal societies.
That pretty much makes all elephants feminists, right?
5. Elephants really do have long memories.
In one sanctuary, two elephants, Shirley and Jenny, had an emotional reunion when they met each other again, after having briefly crossed paths 23 years earlier. Elephants also store and pass on a wealth of social and practical knowledge to help them survive.
6. Elephants can point.
Well, obviously their trunks are like huge, custom-made pointing tools. But most animals haven’t mastered this gesture without being taught it, suggesting that elephants are one of the most cognitively advanced species out there.

7. They can listen with their feet.
African elephants can detect rumbling in the ground with sensory cells in their feet. The vibrations travel through their body to their inner ear. They may even use these vibrations to communicate with each other over long distances.
8. They use sunscreen (well, sort of).
Like us, elephants can get sunburned, so they toss sand over their bodies to protect themselves. They also stop their offspring from getting burnt by standing over them to cast a shadow.

9. Baby elephants suck their trunks in the same way that human babies suck their thumbs.
Too cute! They also have babysitters and make friends for life.
10. They’re environmentally minded.
Elephants are a “keystone species”, meaning that they look after the place where they live, maintaining pathways and access to water, which helps other animals, too.
11. Elephant needs your help.
Given all this evidence about the awesomeness and sensitivity of elephants, it’s obvious that taking them away from their families and locking them up is wrong, which is why we need to speak out for them when they are abused and exploited.
