Dear Reader,

This blog came to life out of my frustration for a love I gained and lost. It reflects the things I have gone through so far. The emotions I felt are also expressed in words here, be it good or bad. It also aims to give sense to all the things that has transpired in my life for the past few months.

I hope no one will be offended by some of the situations I describe in my post. In line with this, I do not aim to character assassinate anyone I describe on any of my post. I simply try my best to present what I see and feel.

Enjoy reading.

Sincerely,

Mart

A Story

31 days has passed. Still no rainbow in sight, I think I am losing hope. Sigh.

Here is a story I would like to share.

47 days ago, I received an email from my ex-girlfriend containing the pictures of her fiancé-Aiden. There were no texts or any message in the email. It only had 4 attachments. This is probably one of the most hilarious emails I have ever received from her. How so? When my brother and I examine the attachments of the email, we can’t help but laugh in amazement. I guess my ex-girlfriend did not realize that she sent edited pictures to someone who knows how to edit them. Or at least these pictures, she forwarded me are edited by an amateur. My ex-girlfriend even named her American boyfriend Aiden, whose name was actually the title on the subject line of the email message I am pertaining to.

Now why do my brother and I find the pictures funny, because the pictures of her so-called fiancé are actually shots taken from the internet of a famous actor.  Who was the actor? It was Matt Lanter. Who is Matt Lanter? If you are familiar with the TV series “90210”, then you probably are familiar with him. He portrays the role of Liam Court in the said TV series. If you want more info on Matt Lanter, here is his mini biography that I lifted from IMDb.com: (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1782667/)

Matthew Mackendree Lanter, or better known to fans as Matt Lanter was born on April 1, 1983 in Massillon, Stark County, Ohio, to Joseph Lanter and Jana Burson. He also has a sister named Kara Day. She is a teacher at Rea View Elementary School in Waxhaw, Union County, North Carolina.

When Matt turned 8 years old, he and his family moved to Atlanta, Fulton County in Georgia. Growing up, the blue-eyed actor spent most of his time playing baseball, football and golf. His love for baseball led him to scoring a position as a bat boy with the Atlanta Braves.

In the year 2001, he graduated from Collins Hill High School. Unfortunately for him, his parents got divorced when he was a senior at Collins Hill. Matt majored in Sports Business at the University of Georgia, but eventually moved to Los Angeles to follow his dreams of being part of the showbiz industry. He attended the University of Georgia after attending a community college for two years.

He first gained the attention of fans when he was selected as a contestant in the 2004 reality television series, Manhunt. The show revolved around contestants having to compete with each other in a series of modeling events. Although he did not win the competition, Matt succeeded in making the show's top 10.

It didn't take too long before critics started noticing Matt. He started landing guest roles on 8 Simple Rules, HBO's Big Love,and Point Pleasant, as well as some modeling jobs and national commercials in the country. Matt's big break came along when he starred as Horace Calloway, the John F. Kennedy-like first son on the short lived ABC political series, Commander in Chief in 2005. However, most people do not know that he was in fact, not in the original pilot. Instead, Matt was a re-cast.

In summer 2006, Matt had the opportunity of starring in a theater production of Without Walls alongside Laurence Fishburne at the Mark Taper Forum in Los Angeles. That same year, he managed to earn a role on Heroes. He played Brody Mitchum, opposite Hayden Panettiere's character, Claire Bennett. Being a part of Heroes proved to be a great opportunity for Matt as the show had high ratings, which allowed Matt to gain more exposure. Fortunately for Matt, his role on Heroes paid off. He managed to snag guest roles on Shark, CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, Grey's Anatomy and Monk.

The year 2008 proved to be one of Matt's successful years. He made his debut on the big screen as a voice actor. He portrayed Anakin Skywalker in the animated film, Star Wars: The Clone Wars, a side story that is set between Star Wars II and Star Wars III. He also managed to get a role in Disaster Movie, playing Will, who was the boyfriend of Vanessa Minnilo's character.

More recently, he has signed on to play Liam, a character who's storyline will be entangled with AnnaLynne McCord's character, Naomi. Matt is expected to make his debut in the popular teen series next February. His movie, Sorority Row, will also be released in October 2009.

Despite being busy working in the industry, Matt says that he tries to stay as humble as possible. When he's not acting, he enjoys being outdoors, playing golf and relaxing at the beach. With more acting roles coming his way, there is definitely more to expect from this Ohio native.

So if Matt Lanter and Aiden (my ex-girlfriends American fiancé) is the same person, who then is being fooled? Did my ex-girlfriend send this message to ward me of? Well if she did, I already got the message crystal clear. But if she insist that it is Aiden who is in those pictures, then I am afraid that she is being played for a fool.

Aside from laughing at the pictures she sent, I became worried for her. Why? What if she was really being fooled? The edited pictures simply bugged me. So, I created a PowerPoint presentation that points out the flaws of the pictures of her Aiden. Just when I was about to send it to her, I realize that she might think that I am still very much affected by our break-up. And then I asked myself, “What if the email was really meant to fool me?” Sending her my presentation will only make me look stupid. Thus, I decided not to send it to her. But for the interest of those who want to see my presentation, I will post it here.

Now, you will be judge whether what she sent me is hilarious or not. DECIDE.

Aiden or Matt
