OKAY this is like some sexist thing i found online. its not totally true but most of it is!!
The problems with GUYS:If u treat him nicely, he says u are in love with him;If u don't, he says u are proud.
If u dress nicely, he says u are trying to lure him;
If u don't, he says u are from kampung.
If u argue with him, he says u are stubborn;
If u keep quiet, he says u have no brains.
If u are smarter than him, he'll lose face;
If he's smarter than u, he is great.
If u don't love him, he tries to possess u;
If u love him, he will try to leave u.
If u don't make love with him., he says u don't love him;
If u do, he says u are cheap.
If u tell him your problem, he says u are troublesome;
If u don't, he says that u don't trust him.
If u scold him, u are like a nanny to him;
If he scolds u, it is because he cares for u.
If u break your promise, u cannot be trusted;
If he breaks his, he is forced to do so.
If u smoke, u are bad girl;
If he smokes, he is gentleman.
If u do well in your exams, he says it's luck;
If he does well, it's brains.
If u hurt him, u are cruel;
If he hurts u, u are too sensitive!!

Following tempest( after 2 years), I finally found the song title and lyrics to the opening song!
My life goes on in endless song
Above Earth's lamentations.
I hear the real, though far-off hymn
that hails a new creation.
Through all the tumult and the strife
I hear its music ringing.
It sounds an echo in my soul.
How can I keep from singing?
While though the tempest loudly roars,
I hear the truth, it liveth.
And though the darkness 'round me close,
Songs in the night it giveth.
No storm can shake my inmost calm,
While to that rock I'm clinging.
Since love is lord of heaven and earth
How can I keep from singing?
When tyrants tremble in their fear
And hear their death knell ringing,
When friends rejoice both far and near
How can I keep from singing?
In prison cell and dungeon vile
Our thoughts to them are winging,
When friends by shame are undefiled
How can I keep from singing?
we're so super cute :D

On my way to work, I was thinking. How would u determine whether one's level of English-good/bad/passable etc?
If we were to judge based on how many bombastic words used, it wont be accurate would it? I mean, sure it would make an essay look impressive, but anyone can start memorizing those words and dump them all into an essay.
Or do we judge on a person's way of thinking? Focusing on one's organizing of thoughts and ideas rather than the vocabulary used? But if we were to determine it like this, are we judging the person's flow of thoughts, critical thinking skills, maturity level, analytical skills or the level of English?
More often than not, we are reminded by our English teachers to keep our essays simple and straightforward. As long as we can be successful in putting our ideas across to readers, we are rewarded with high marks.
In primary school, we are tested for our grammer, vocabulary, understanding of passages etc. As we grow older and enter secondary school/JC, there's this focus on thought processes and general knowledge. You are awarded marks according to your train of thoughts and personal opinions more than according to the number of bombastic words into your essay. AQ and essay are good examples. You are only awarded a mere 5 marks out of about 90 marks for GP on vocab. And probably a few more marks(max 10 in total?) in the comprehension section.
My cousin in Hwa Chong Institution, reads 'The Straits Times' everyday, picking out 5 vocab words and memorising their definitions etc. However he is still unable to score for English because he can't pen it down. There is no coherent flow in his essay. So how would we rate his level of English?
In Primary and Secondary School, there are oral examinations where we are tested on conversational skills to determine if we have a good command of English. But we don't have such practices in JC. So does it mean that as long as we can write well and organise our thoughts on paper, we are considered to be good in English?
People living in countries like America and England-where English is their mother tongue speak the language every day . However, it can' t be argued that their English is good. Statistic has shown that 6% of Americans aged 16-18, 11% of Americans aged 19-24 and 28% of Americans aged 25-38 are illiterate. (

Also see:
www.cie.org.uk/docs/dynamic/18894.pdf
My point is, are there lope holes in the education system? What is the best way to determine a person's command of the English language?

If you look inside a girl...
You would see how much she really cries.
You would find so many secrets
and lots of lies...
But what you'll see the most,
is how hard it is to stay strong.
When nothing is right,
and everything is wrong...

Believers of Nichiren Daishonin's Buddhism often speak of "turning poison into medicine" when they describe how their Buddhist practice has enabled them to transform a difficult, negative or painful situation into something positive. We believe any unfavorable situation can be changed into a source of value. More fundamentally, it is by challenging and overcoming painful circumstances that we grow as human beings.
How we respond to life's inevitable sufferings is the key. Negative, painful experiences are often necessary to motivate us. The process of changing poison into medicine begins when we approach difficult experiences as an opportunity to reflect on ourselves and to strengthen and develop our courage and compassion. The more we are able to do this, the more we are able to grow in vitality and wisdom and realize a truly expansive state of life.

If we can take a chance now and then
seek and search, discover and dream,
grow and get through each day
with the knowledge that we can
only take as much as we can give,
and we can only get as much out of life
as we allow ourselves to live...
then we can be truly happy.
We can realise a dream or two, and
we can make a habit of reaching out for
rainbows and colouring our lives with
wonderful days

The Bottom Line
New beginnings happen every day, and a very big change is coming your way, today.
In Detail
New beginnings happen every day, usually without you noticing them -- so if you are wishing your life were different, take a moment to realize that it actually is! Focusing all the time on what you wish could be better is too negative and narrow-minded. You should try a little harder to take note of the progress you have made and pat yourself of the back for the good things you have accomplished. Sure, you may have a little farther to go, but who doesn't?
ha sounds very exciting so i shall keep a lookout as to whats gonna change in my life today! plans for today: meet bicky-vicky and phuay after work today! finished another book on the way to work! so 2 more library books and a few self-bought books to keep me company for the next few wks(since i assume i would take damn long to finish chinese books)
ha and i realise how absolutely lesbian-y i m getting. with aunty knowing my password to blog and i knowing her password to her blog. gosh no wonder our parents think we have something going on. a few more slpovers and they will prob freak out.=P
i am in a surprisingly good mood today. feeling very high tho brain-dead this morn. haha think gill found it a lil amusing someone could actu get so high at 9am in the morn. but whats there not to be high about! man u won roma and advanced to the semi-s!! WHEE ^v^
time for lunch!=D

You are almost emo. You listen to music with emo lyrics like Linkin Park (crawling in my skin) but haven't really ventured into the acoustic sounds of the true emo audiophile. You might have shaggy hair, but only because you're lazy, not really because you strive for emo-ness.

It might get worse before it gets better, but anyone who has ever been emotionally clobbered by a breakup knows what an incredible shock to the system it is in the days and weeks right after your split. It might seem impossible that anyone else has felt this way, ever! But they have and they've recovered, and you will too. It's okay to be sad, emotional, and even needy with your friends and family, but don't torture yourself by dwelling on the what-ifs and how-comes that you go over and over in your mind. Is your heart broken? Absolutely, but not unfixable. Sometimes it takes a little self-imposed tough love to kick start your own recovery.

| What type of person do you attract? Your Result: You attract models! Congrats, something about you makes those model-quality people flock to you.

If you are seeking someone that is not cynical and slightly bitter about humans in general, someone focused on the human condition and intellect, then you are out of luck - but who cares, you attract models! |

The Bottom Line
Being concise is extremely important today, so cut to the chase in conversations.
In Detail
Being concise is extremely important today, because it will help you get to the heart of the matter without wasting anyone's time (including you own). So instead of going on and on when you're asking for something, cut to the chase. Just ask for what you want. If you deserve something, you will get it. And if you don't, you won't. If it's 'no,' it's not the answer you want to hear, but at least you will know faster -- and can move on to bigger and better things sooner.
as usual its pretty true to a certain extent=S
