Beyonce - Ave Maria

This song resonates with my soul.




She was lost in so many different ways
Out in the darkness with no guide
I know the cost of a losing hand
Never thought the grace of God go high

I found heaven on earth
You were my last, my first
And then I hear this voice inside
Ave Maria

I've been alone when I'm surrounded by friends
How could the silence be so loud?
But I still go home knowing that I've got you
There's only us when the lights go down

You are my heaven on earth
You are my hunger, my thirst
I always hear this voice inside
Singing Ave Maria

Sometimes love can come and pass you by
While your busy making plans
Suddenly hit you and then you realize
It's out of your hands, baby you got to understand

You are my heaven on earth
You are my last, my first
And then I hear this voice inside
Ave Maria, Ave Maria, Ave Maria

03 | The most valuable lesson you learned this year

The most valuable lesson you learned this year.


I don't really know.

I've learnt so many things this year that I'm not quite sure which one is the most valuable. I am grateful that my life isn't dramatic this year, after all, stress from year 12 alone is enough to scare me crazy.

But since school has ended, I guess this is the most important. If I want to continue a relationship with my friends, we've both got to take the initiative. I don't care if all we do is hang around at someone's house, at least we're together...and that's what counts. I want to be in their presence and remember that I can never take it for granted. After all, anything can happen in life. One minute they're there and then the next, they're gone (figuratively and literally). So I really want to sustain my friendship with the people who are dear to me. That's why I'm looking forward to my coffee dates :D

So I was on a HP fever...

Just looking though my tumblr and thought I'll do a repost :D



… LOLS.

One of the things I dislike about Twilight is that girls that I’ve meant dream and wish for their very own Edward. They live their fantasies by re-reading the Twilight saga and the things that they do just scream UNHEALTHY to me. They live in their dreams and forget reality, forgetting to live.

I’m not sure how to word this properly, but Twilight isn’t inferior because the idea came from a dream. Dreams can be catalysts for great things…its just that Twilight effects individuals in a way that they begin to dwell on their dreams of this perfect guy coming along to swoop them up and begin their happily ever after. And well, there’s a lot more to “happily ever after” than just having a perfect guy.

02 | A picture of a moment/day you will never forget in 2010

I completely forgot about this challenge. Then again, I've been so busy this last week because of the Christmas season. The last time my Christmas was this hectic was 2 years ago. It feels nostalgic to be running around the church trying to find matches to light the candle because I lost my lighter :/ (I don't smoke ==")

Anyways, one of the reason why I put this off was because they're are so many pictures to choose from and because Graduation Dinner was coming up. But I finally made up my mind and found the one I wanted...by going through Facebook (Y)



Since the picture is from Facebook, the quality isn't that great.

The reason why this moment is unforgettable is because it's the last time the class of 2010 of Killester College will be together. It's the last time we'll go crazy together, the last time we try to make an effort and do something, the last time we're gonna sing our hearts out, the last time we'll be awesome together. I don't think I'll ever be able to see most of these people ever again, and if I do, maybe I won't even remember who they are. But they're still very special to me. Each of them are part of the class of 2010. Together, we've grown up. Together, we've made it.

And well, I can't help but feel grateful to be surrounded by such awesome people. Teachers who have taught at other schools always go on about how great Killester girls are. How nice and genuine everyone is. How teachers are actually shown some respect and that we actually develop a relationship with them. I wish the teachers were in this picture too. They've played a great part of my life and I cherish them for all they've done.
