Common tests are finally over! Well thats a load off my tired mind, but still sometime to go before i can take a good rest. To von and dee: you guys may not have done as well as you wld have wanted, well don't know if that means anything to you hehe, but i still love you guys the same, *always be vonnie and dee to me*.

Today was a good day for me, went for a relaxed afternoon of suntan after the test, but something really weird happened to me. I was almost asleep on the lounge chair when i felt a few droplets of water splash onto my body. It was rain. I opened my eyes and looked at the sky in disbelief. The sun was shining all around, but there was this dark patch of cloud directly above me, and sprinkling droplets of rain on me. I had a flashback: it reminded me of the thousands of times that i wanted to scream to the heavens : Why does it ALWAYS rain on me? But thankfully, I've passed that phase.

I still have lots more to write, but so little time. So i end this blog with a poem that I really like. Hope these verses will inspire you as it did me. God bless.


Give Me the Wind.

I am at my best with the wind in my face,
When overcoming the challenge, with pace.
The pace that requires more effort, more strength.
But once gained momentum, endures with great length.

It's easy to sit back, placid and calm
Comfort is only a relative balm.
It seems an advantage, better than strife
But is dulled by stagnation, stifling life.

Progress needs movement, energy, drive,
No chance for improvement if you do not strive.
Nothing's for nothing: cause and effect.
That which you work for, you've more chance to get.

So give me the wind, let it blow in my face,
The more I confront, the more strength I'll embrace.
Steps are not mounted, nor challenge o'ercome.
Without certain courage or effort be done.
