i still love u

This letter is long overdue. So much has happened in these past few weeks. All the arguments and everything seem as if they're happening because time runs flies by us and we don't have time with each other due to work and hectic schedules. I wanted to tell you that no matter what has happened in the past, I still love you with my whole heart, and I know that these misunderstandings don't mean anything more than just arguing. You seem to think that I don't love you anymore and I know I haven't been showing it that much. However, from this day on, I'm going to try harder to be a better person, and not be so adamant about everything, because last night I realized that you are the most important person in my life and that if I continue like this, I may just lose the love we share. Anyways, with much love, trust and with confidence to become a better person from now onwards, I love you!

My Senior High School

My senior high school, the Affiliated Senior High School of National Taiwan Normal University, located across the American Institution in Taiwan and near the Da-an Forest Park, is a place filled with joy and laughter and wonder. Before entering the school, you can see a large and impressive front gate, on which our school name is inscribed. The buildings in school are very well-organized in distinctive patterns. Turning left, you can see a magnificent building, our gymnasium, where people cheerfully play basketball and badminton. Just near the gym stands a row of teachers’ offices, a historic building just like the Red House in Jianguo High School. On the right-hand side of the school are two lines of royal palms. It is terrific to immerge yourself sitting there to enjoy the breeze softly sweeping over your face and to listen to birds twittering. And then, if you walk straight forward while entering the front gate, you can see two fiery phoenixes made of tile making threatening gestures, which are the symbol of our school, representing freedom, wild imagination and creative thinking. At the back of our school is the sports field, which is one of the largest you can find in Taipei. Students are used to playing baseball, football or doing any exercises in this sports field; most of our celebrations also take place in this huge playground. Finally, the very scene you may frequently notice is that after school, you can always see passionate students playing guitar loudly, and dancing in a fever, trying to get rid of bad emotions and pressure. A school really worthy of a visit, every time I walk out, I know what it feels like to live in a paradise.

My Dormitory Room

My dormitory room, which is on the second floor of Bienville Hall, is very neat and tidy. Though not very big, the bright white ceiling and light green walls make the rectangular room seems larger than it appears to be. As you step into the room, with the furniture well organized, you feel quite at ease as if you are in a nice flat rather than in a dormitory. Straight ahead you can see two large windows with the glistening lambrequins flowing, and under the gleaming curtains settled my bed, decorated with some stuffed toys. On the left hand side against the wall is a large bookcase filled with books and papers alphabetically. Near the door you can find my desk and chair made of wood sitting next to the bookcase, and there are several of my favorite singers’ posters hanged on the wall above the desk.

love

In society today, when someone mentions the word “Love” and are referring to love between two of no relation, it is guaranteed that at least half the people surrounding you will shudder. Whether it be through observation or experience, people have come to learn that Love is far from being the ideal state in which one should live in and, for that matter, many choose to stay away from it. It is known to break hearts, to hurt feelings and, believe it or not, it truly is not always happily ever after.

cold

I had meant to spend my weekends in Taipei as usual,
but dismissed the idea after realizing how freezing cold it was outside. I guess I will simply stay in my cozy little place for the weekend after all. Instead of trudging all the way to Taipei in such chilling weather, I'm sure I'd be a lot better off snugging up in bed with an English novel or surfing either the internet or the channels with the heator on.

a view og myself

I must confess, in retrospect, that I have never put myself out to attain the goals I had set for myself. Whatever achievement-if any-I have now, I have probably come by it with some stroke of luck. I seem to live by the credence that whether I will succeed in what I aim at is far more on the lap of the gods than a likely product of perseverance and exertion on my part. On the other hand, this may be a sham, a pretence for my inertia, passivity. The truth of the matter is, I lack the single-minded drive to work hard, to succeed. Here a question crops up, though. How do you define success? Is it the acquisition of fame, wealth and power, or is it to be able to live one's life as one wishes it, whatever that is?

firends

i come across this somewhere and think its pretty cool

A friend is someone true and for real,
A friend is someone who means a great deal.
A friend won't hurt you,
A friend won't lie,
A friend will never permanantly say good-bye.
A friend is there through the good times and bad,
A friend is there to cheer you up when your sad.
A friend is always there with a shoulder to cry on,
A friend is always there that you can rely on.
So, friend if you ever need someone honest and true,
Just remember ill always be here for you .
