Longer
Dan Fogelberg
Longer than there've been fishes
in the ocean
Higher than any bird ever flew
Longer than there've been stars
up in the heavens
I've been in love with you.
Stronger than any mountain cathedral
Truer than any tree ever grew
Deeper than any forest primeval
I am in love with you.
I'll bring fires in the winters
You'll send showers in the springs
We'll fly through the falls and summers
With love on our wings.
Through the years as the fire
starts to mellow
Burning lines in the book of our lives
Though the binding cracks and the
pages start to yellow
I'll be in love with you.
Longer than there've been fishes
in the ocean
Higher than any bird ever flew
Longer than there've been stars
up in the heavens
I've been in love with you
I am in love with you..

i think the teacher just hates you for being so nice, too much nicer than her and maybe because the students like you then she's just jealous because they don't like her! no wonder why either!! yicks!
sher, don't worry, we'll all be behind you and WE know how nice you are and that you actually put in effort and you are not like what the piggyfiedassteacher says. so smile because we are here!

and and and and. i think i need to do CIP. but nothing's fun and those that are all don't involve me, like someone who's going india to do CIP! not fair. i want to do painting and that kind of stuff, fun sia! haha
look what happens when i say i'm stopping cip in july bcoz of fencing.
Dear Shermaine
Sorry that you couldn't find me but you must remember that it is Sunday and it is the school holidays - and I don't want to be around if I can help it. As to the attendance file I remember giving you the names at the very first lesson and that was the last time I saw it.
I really don't know what to say about your state of affairs except to say that you should have known about the clashes way before you embarked on this major project with Bedok View.
You must also remember that it was not us who requested for your help but who graciously allowed you the opportunity to carry out your CIP with our pupils.I suppose there is nothing more to be said except that if the circumstances are against you then you have to make the necessary arrangements and terminate the lessons after the first batch.
I will try to explain to the affected students as best as I can. It was a commitment that you took on & I am sorry that you are not able to keep your side of the bargain.
We at Bedok View thank you for all that you have done & will continue to do in the next few weeks. We wish you the best in your studies and hope to meet under more favourable circumstances in the future.
just wonderful.
just felt like saying hiiiii hahahaa oh ya and we painted my bro's room wall orange today! damn fun i nearly laughed to death bcoz my bro and sis can be v retarded lolll.. k miss meeee =]

BLeahz. iM borEd! like whens our stayover and everything?!?! i miss fun!!! hehehe!
haven't written anything for ages but here i am. :)
the book sounds cool, interesting really because i have heard or read something to do with cults and stuff in america and these kind of things are supposedly very very common over there. there was one where the guy had many 'wives' or something like that and when the police came to bust the cult, he either blew up the entire house with don't know how many people inside or set fire to it. can't really recall now, but i think i heard of it somewhere, can't be my imagination can it.
therefore, sher, i want to read it. :)
i read finish a book too that has nothing to do with GP and haven't even got one form the GP book list. bah. the book i read was 'the sculptors' by suzanne glass. it is an intriguing book about this girl from isreal and became a plastic surgeon in chicago. she had run away from her life in isreal because she couldn't stand being pampered and under the strict guidance of her painter-father. she had been given a special post in the isreali army, an officer, because she was a child prodigy, a child artist. she ran away to chicago where her mother was from at 20 and lived there in near solitude. mentally alone mostly.
she gave up art altogether, keeping away from anything to do with art but something hit her when she watched an art film and she went to look at art galleries in chicago and then fell in love with a sculpture. that made her look for the artist and they fell in love eventually. he helped her get back in touch with art again and she changed quite a lot. throughout the book, their lives in the past would be featured to explain why they are this way and what events had changed their lives. very interesting. then the girl had to do a total face restructuring in order to hide the indentity of another woman for her safety because she was witness to a crime and the girl got the sculptor[boyfriend] to help restructure. after the surgery, she realised that he had restructured her face to look like his daughter that died young and could not give up, she felt cheated and made use off and she returned to isreal.
in isreal, she started painting again and returned to her kibbutz to look for her father and found out that he had painted many pictures of her in order to keep her with him. this way, she understood why her boyfriend had sculpted so many spcultors of his daughter and why he had made the woman look like his daughter. the last chapter was damn cool. sigh. just a typical happy ending with a twist. the girl had a daughter and married the sculptor and she and her father patched things up and lived happily ever after.
of course there was way more to the story. its really nice. loved it. dont know if you guys would. but just ask me if you want to read it. now, i've got to get started on the GP books. sighh.
oh. ya. the sleepover. hello people. we need to discuss it!!
eeeks..your book sounds kinda scary, sher:S haha.. no offence to anyone, but it kinda reminds me of city harvest church. of all the stories and stuffs i've heard about it. i have two cousins in there and yeah kinda not-so-good..i guess tt Light religion's a cult huh.
i've wondered before if all these religious things like Christianity and Islam and so on are things that people actually made up a thousands years ago. ahh pls dont whack me. but yeah just some thoughts..im not sure if i should believe in it. i came to know of Him in pri sch coz i studied in a presbyterian school. im not a christian but i do talk to Him at times..like u noe in times of fear or anxiety it's comforting to know that u're not the only one out there alone.. and yeah there're some historical things in the Bible that also compliments some things in the Koran. ahh i sound like a realist.
alrite i'm dead tired now..i'm currently into abraham lincoln. hahah i'm reading this bio bout him by dale carnegy (however u spell it). kinda interesting =) hm i wanna cont. reading my book but i guess i'd better catch some sleep! tmr's the touch rug league..hopefully we can maintain our position as champions. kinda scary facing hcjc and OFS in the 1st round. some of the stronger teams..=S haha kk if tabi reads this i'm dead. "NO CONFIDENCE AR! DONT PLAY LAH!" yup so pray for us!! (n hope it rains tmr so it'll end earlier and i can rush to my concert in timeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!)
yea just felt like doing a mini book review on this book i just read by Sherry Ashworth.. Blinded by the Light.. pretty short but well says a lot. It's about this guy who initially finds himself leading a meaningless life.. yea he's waiting to get to the uni next year but he's basically bumming around and getting himself drunk every night since he has nothing better to do. Till he meets this couple on the train and he's overwhelmed by how contented they seem.. it's like they have this fixed purpose in life tt they are totally committed to.. he's drawn to them somehow and they invite him to this party they're holding.
So he turns up at the party and he finds out tt they're living in some sort of communal house.. and to quote the book 'at first glance they looked dead ordinary. a few blockes, a girl in a white dress, faces you might see anywhere. but on closer examination they did look different. and then it dawned on me. everyone seemed remarkably happy'. so he figures that they belong to some sort of religion of their own. and they dont push him at all, they just invite him back whenever he wants to come. And he finds himself unable to stay away from the place. He goes back again and again as an observer and sees how they conduct evening services and morning services. he sees how warmly everyone welcomes him, how much they seem to belong to a big family. everything is pure and good there and everyone believes in the Light. they abstain from sex drugs alcohol and anything addictive and basically immerse themselves in physical and mental work. he seems to fit in so well here tt he moves away from his family and into the communal house, despite all protests from his parents and accusations tt he's joining a cult.
so he gets into the hang of things and is initiated way earlier than expected, becoming a worshipper of the Light. His mentor Fletcher treats him real well and trains him properly in his journey to attain Perfection. This involves ASD - alternate sense deprivation, in which one or more of your senses are dulled so tt yu can hone the rest.. things like being blindfolded for the whole day, fasting, wearing earplugs etc. He gets totally involved in it and feels his life becoming more enriched, as if he was never properly living in the past. he detaches himself from teh rest of the world, refusing to go to the u anymore but instead wanting to focus on more impt things like helping others reach the Light too. he believes fully in matter and antimatter, antimatter being pure evil and is out to destroy all matter. Antimatter can come in the form of doubt or suspicion, or it could come in physical forms too, such as in alcohol or drugs. Everytime he has any doubt in what he is doing, he accounts it as the antimatter talking and dismisses it.
on an occasion he goes out on an Attraction mission to spread the Light to others. He is far away from the communal house and the attractions of the outside world start tempting him again. He starts doubting all that he thought he believed in, and a random thought occurs to him tt maybe all the people in the communal house were deluding themselves, believing in something tt does not exist, resulting in the creation of their own rules, their own reality. But all these doubts are cast away when he returns to the communal house, and Fletcher tells him he might be Perfection reincarnated. He knows that he isn't, but is nonetheless flattered when Fletcher considers him as a possible candidate. they send him to another state where their Leader lives, a guy who wrote the Book that they live according to, the leader of their religion.
Here he is struck by how much charisma the leader has. The way he delivers his speeches, with utter conviction and total confidence, makes it hard for him to doubt what he says. However, when he actually meets the Leader, he is appalled to find out that the Leader drinks alcohol, claiming that it has no effect on him, like 'eunuchs with women'. He realises that the Leader wants someone to take over him, be his successor, and that's why he's looking for someone whom they believe is Perfection reincarnated. Suddenly everything starts falling in place. The entire religion is an elaborate scam tt is so convincing that even the Leader has completely believed in what he says. So the protaganist is told tt in order to decide whether he is indeed Perfection, he has to go through complete sensory deprivation which involves him wrapped up entirely in white cloth, blindfolded, unable to hear see touch taste smell. The previous candidates were apparently not successful, they said, one having a heart attack and another choking to death on his own vomit.
he knows that there is no way of escape, but makes a deal with the second-in-charge of the place. he is willing to provide him with a route out as he himself wants the position as Leader. while he is trying to get away, he meets Fletcher and finds out to his extreme horror that Fletcher is actually some obsessed gay shit tt murdered his bf claiming tt he got to the Light. Fletcher tries to drown the protagonist, claiming tt he'll see tt he is indeed Perfection since he will come to life again. But in the end there's a happy ending and he gets away and gets back together with his family and all.
whoa i didn't mean for this entry to be so long it was supposed to be a short review but oh well. haha. it's scary how man's imagination can create reality. like in silas marner? lol myth to reality just by imagination. and worse is how much the pple believed in it. even the protagonist was conned for an entire 9 months without realising it. what hit me hardest was when this guy in the communal house was suffering from some sort of illness. and they refused to let him take medication bcoz they believed that the Light will heal him. so they put him under complete sensory deprivation and wrapped him up. and bcoz he couldn't breathe he died. and bcoz he soiled himself they claimed tt it was the antimatter escaping. it's so.. to quote eching - chilling to see how oblivious these pple are. When the facts are glaring at them in the face they're so absorbed in their belief that they refuse to accept it. worse still is that they dont realise they're doing anything wrong and treat everything with such deathly calm.. the human mind is a powerful thing and it's scary, to say the least, to see what can happen when it's used in an inappropriate way.
shit i'm not even doing this book for gp hmwk. haha. got a bit carried away there.. books make me want to talk a lot lol.. ya so yall can go borrow the book if yu're interested.. has a bit of silas marner themes? lol.. ok i'll stop advertising already ya..

yea then i caught harry potter today after being woken up at some UNEARTHLY HOUR BY BRILLIANT TSU and dragged myself off to town again.. after which they claimed i looked like i just got out of bed WHICH I DID lol.. and i thot prisoner of askaban was like the worst harry potter show so far? it had a damn long beginning and damn long ending but whatever happened to the middle??! it was like ok lots of nonsense about the knight bus and going to hogwarts and preparation and all and warnings about sirius black then before yu noe it it's like the conclusion and he's saving himself and we see the ending TWICE somemore.. which i suppose they assumed made up for the lack of middle.. but overall i thot it was pretty bad.. but hermione is getting prettier tho lol.. i think she looked v gd with her hair up hahaha..
ok so at least i dont wanna watch it again.. i've only got troy and shrek to watch again hahaha.. troy higher priority tho bcoz i watched it longer ago lol...
