ais. a few thing bothering me..the band issue is become more n more... mind boggling. i cant make up my mine, neither can i come up with a solution to please everyone. well generally speaking, its either pleasing me or pleasing him. so, yeah. have been really lost in thought abt this matter for a few days le, and i still havent come to a conclusion. and i need to make a decision before the weekend's over. any suggestions? im asking, whether i should teach band at a low rate. tag tag tag!the other thing is, we're not talking. tats bad. really bad. omg. how. haix.. and i thought i had enough on my plate.over-ate tonite. feeling a little terrible, and i hope i can fit into my dress. =X =X =X sillyjam is feeling a little depressed, bcox 1) she cant come to a decision, 2) she's doesnt seem to be on good terms with a fren (and vice versa) and 3) she's growing fat.uhhh... =(From Sebastian Yio's blog. really meaningful ^_^
A well-known speaker started off his seminar by holding up a $20.00 bill. In the room of 200, he asked, 'Who would like this $20 bill?'. Hands started going up. He said, 'I am going to give this $20 to one of you but first, let me do this. He proceeded to crumple up the $20 dollar bill. He then asked, 'Who still wants it?' Still the hands were up in the air. Well, he replied, 'What if I do this?' And he dropped it on the ground and started to grind it into the floor with his shoe. He picked it up, now crumpled and dirty. 'Now, who still wants it?' Still the hands went into the air. My friends, we have all learned a very valuable lesson. No matter what I did to the money, you still wanted it because it did not decrease in value.
It was still worth $20.
Many times in our lives, we are dropped, crumpled, and ground into the dirt by the decisions we make and the circumstances that come our way. We feel as though we are worthless. But no matter what has happened or what will happen, you will never lose your value. Dirty or clean, crumpled or finely creased, you are still priceless to those who DO LOVE you. The worth of our lives comes not in what we do or who we know, but by WHO WE ARE and WHOSE WE ARE. You are special - Don't EVER forget it.' Count your blessings, not your problems. And remember: amateurs built the ark .... professionals built the Titanic.
