"If you could live an eternity and not change a thing or exist for the blink of an eye and alter everything, what would you choose?"

Gotten this question from The freedom writers diary...

It's an awesome book...packed with powerful emotion about the students day to day struggle in a world whose people used colours to judge human characters...

And this is not just another fiction book, it is actually written by real people with real experience...

They use writing to pour out their deepest feeling on what it's mean to survive in this world filled with hatred, prejudice and labels...

And it's simply amazing that a class of "unteachable, at-risk" students are willing to listen to their English teacher, Erin Gruwell to write their journals...

Erin Gruwell is simply an amazing teacher...she is just a newbie teacher but she done so much for the students...

If u guys wanna noe more...

Moment

Let him wish his life

For the sorrows of a stone

Never knowing the pain of ice

As its crystals slowly grow

Needles pressing in on the heart

To live forever

And never feel a thing

To wait a million lifetimes

Only to erode and become sand

Wish not for the stone

But for the fire

Last only moments

But change everything

Oh to be lighting

To exist for less than a moment

Yet in that moment

To expose the world to every open eye

oh to be thunder

To clap and ring

To rumble into memories

Minds and spines

To chill the soul and shake the very ground

Pounding even the sand

Into smaller pieces

Or the mountain

Brooding, extinct

Yet gathering for one final moment

The power to blow the top clean off the world

Oh to last the blink of an eye and leave nothing

But nothing unmoved behind you

Vincent Guilliano

Some quotations in the movie...

"I hate white people.."

"you dunno me..."

"But i noe what you can do....."

"Raise your hand if any of you know about the holocaust?"

(one raise up..)

"Raise your hand if any of you have be shot at..."

(Everybody except one white raise up their hand..)

And that's a lot more....

Enjoy the show..guys...

I hate myself for feeling so weak....

I hate myself for feeling so groggy in class...

Especially in database system class....

It's have been like this for the past 2 weeks...

I dun like to see myself in this pathetic wreak-up state...

It's suffocating me...

Seeing my faci teach with me struggling to stay awake on my chair...

I wanna listen..but my body just wun listen to my command...

Even a cup of caffein nv boost up my body system...

I wun let myself be like this next week...

It's time to wake up...

to reality.....

Things to work on:
- MY java programming skills.
- PP Outline
- Writing a good summary...

While the world sleeps

Thursday, April 24, 2008 @ Thursday, April 24, 2008

{When I wake up to the ear-splitting sound of my alarm clock, and blindly search for the snooze button, a sudden thought dawns: "What am I doing?"

The time is 5:30 AM; all is dark and hushed. My weary body feels completely drained of energy. While straining to open my eyes, still warm and snug in my comfortable bed, I am overcome with a feeling of lethargy. "Perhaps I should call in sick." Despite all my musing, and my bed's magnetic pull, I still manage to rise each morning at this ungodly hour to join the cross-country running team in rigorous training.

Cross-country running, a sport that requires the fusing of body and mind, strives to maximize your physical ability by testing your mental tenacity. Everyday represents a new struggle to beat yesterday's maximum output, an issue of mind over matter. I have known the agony of this conflict since I joined the newly established cross-country team. As convincing as my morning doubts are, I do not heed them. Through pains and sprains and through adverse weather and unfavorable conditions, I run because I made up my mind three years ago to succeed.

With amenities such as cars and buses, I have no pragmatic reason to use my feet, especially if I lack a destination. I do not run to the gym to acquire a stylish figure, for my slender frame does not require it. And this grueling run differs from a relaxing jog to a coffee shop. I am pushing myself constantly to run faster and farther, for my team as well as for personal glory. Somehow with tireless effort and unflagging commitment, I run through the sleeping streets of my neighborhood with the awareness that I am steadily reaching my goal-maintaining the discipline that cross-country demands. In my mind I see a victory line that symbolizes the results of perseverance and hard work. This line makes me realize that ambition and tenacity do not go in vain. And it constantly reminds me that all those morning in which I struggled to leave my cozy cocoon have allowed me to fly.

While the world slept, I, Jane Smith, was awake and working hard to attain my goal. I feel more confident now, that on the road of life, when others may be walking, I will be running. I will run through ankle injuries and through fatigue. I will endure the inevitable hills and valleys. I will endure, and I will achieve.}

Inspiring.....

You Are Right Brained In Love

Bit of a drama queen Peacemaker, first to end a fight Good at thinking up creative dates Tend to fall in love and get hurt easily Going with your gut instead of your head Empathetic and caring, sometimes to a fault Good at recognizing patterns in relationships Been in love many times, perhaps too many to count Wildly passionate and intense when falling in love Spontaneous with relationships, going with the flow Overly visual - can play back past dates like movies in your mind Roses, love poems, and stuffed animals are a good start to winning your heart

Wednesday, April 09, 2008 @ Wednesday, April 09, 2008

I simply love this poem....

So beautifully written...

Tat feeling is so real....

[When your words came, I ate them;

" "Words are powerful.

We take the things people say to us to heart whether e intend to do so or not.

Words have ways of sneaking past our defense mechanisms

and penetrating deeply into our soul.

We might try to disregard or shrug off the things others say to us,

yet we find ourselves recalling the hurt, the sting, or the doubt those words stirred up.

The words of a friend, neighbor or mere acquaintance can affect us for better or worse.

Particularly when someone’s words rub us the wrong way,

we need to take these words as light, and we will feel the peace.

We will experience the freedom of being released from the hold

these words have had on us.

Don’t let the words of others inflict unnecessary harm on you.

We say things we shouldn’t every day, never realizing the mark we leave.

And yet, the very thing someone said without thinking can so

easily penetrate our hearts forever.]

Quote from a blog which i pass by just now....
