How delightful it is to be a Literature student!

There were never strawberries
like the ones we had
that sultry afternoon
sitting on the step of the open french window
facing each other
your knees held in mine
the blue plates in our laps
the strawberries glistening
in the hot sunlight
we dipped them in sugar
looking at each other.

Seriously, if you keep letting your emotions sway you, you’ll never rise to see the light of the day. After seeing you getting your heart lacerated over and over again, i earnestly suggest that you block out what is affecting your studies with the iron resolve you once exerted on yourself. The mid-years is a challenge, because you study with a broken heart and wounded mind. However, if you don’t do well, ultimately you’re the one who is held responsible because you have failed to govern your emotions.

BE STRONG, Zhuo’er!
You can do it.
You MUST do it!

A Game of Chess

When misunderstanding pierces the heart
and griefs the soul*,
people long for understanding.
Yet, is understanding truly desired?

i don’t know.

Somehow i think not.

People desire to be known.

Do i know you?
Do you know me?

* The author did not feel victimized by misunderstanding at the point in time where these lines were written.

She simply wanted to reveal a petal tip of the blooming flower of her musing. (:

Trust me, because i quite know her.

2009 IB Result release!

Wow, glory to glory indeed!

Average point is raised to 40.1 already! 
Which means about 69% of the class of 2008 cohort obtained scores qualified for top Universities in the World!!

It was such an unnerving experience to watch seniors i know and care about being kept in suspense… felt like puking (literally) perpetually for a prolonged period of time. A common reaction shared with Nicole! Haha. The funny thing is that when it’s my turn to receive result, i usually feel perfectly assured and strangely calm.

The happenings on stage were worthy to note, for they evoked a mixture of pleasant emotions.
… i was so moved by the golden couple, they created such a beautiful sight!! (: <3

CONGRATULATIONS for all seniors for being tough survivors, and for having fought a good fight! =D

To God be the Glory!
The Best is Yet to Be!

Will be away for quite some time probably, because a whirlwind called EETOKIAWL will be keeping me twirling in the air for quite some time. (x

Take care & God bless!

My favourite poem!

致橡树

作者:舒婷

我如果爱你——
绝不像攀援的凌霄花,
借你的高枝炫耀自己;
我如果爱你——
绝不学痴情的鸟儿
为绿阴重复单调的歌曲;
也不止像泉源
长年送来清凉的慰藉;
也不止像险峰
增加你的高度,衬托你的威仪。
甚至日光。
甚至春雨。
不,这些都还不够!
我必须是你近旁的一株木棉,
作为树的形象和你站在一起。
根,紧握在地下
叶,相触在云里。
每一阵风过
我们都互相致意,
但没有人
听懂我们的言语。
你有你铜枝铁干,
像刀、像剑
也像戟;
我有我红硕的花朵
像沉重的叹息,
又像英勇的火炬。
我们分担寒潮、风雷、霹雳;
我们共享雾霭、流岚、虹霓。
仿佛永远分离,
却又终身相依。
这才是伟大的爱情,
坚贞就在这里:
爱——
不仅爱你伟岸的身躯,
也爱你坚持的位置,足下的土地。

(x Like what i said to someone, the irony lies in the fact that i got in touch with my Bamboo Roots on the Banana Thriving Ground.
