and I've been Crying Over you ( another reprise)/ Till the Work be done

It just hit me, that probably year 2004 was the wettest year around that i've ever seen... not really talking about the rain levels, but rather, realised tat lots of people have been crying a lot in 2004...

Are you one of them?

Read C's blog, and i'm already a bought-over fan! I like the ramblings, the sudden intellectual stimulations that is offered, and i like the senseless jokes inside. SO YOU!

C's got a very stong force supporting her life and keeping her going. Then realised from PS tat she's really not happy serving the best firm in her field. Busy, too much work, stress... getting down...

Then i composed a short poem for her! Yipee. I only compose anything when i'm touched, or hurt. So this time, its when i'm touched. Then suddenly when writing tat poem, i suddenly thought again, of my alma mater's song:

Glad tat i live am i,
that the sky is blue.
Glad for the country lace,
and the fall of dew.
After the sun the rain,
after the rain the sun.
This is the way of life,
till the work be done
.
All that we need to do,
be we low or high,
is to see that we grow,
nearer the sky.


I absolutely lovvvvve the sentence in bold italics. Didnt know if my ability to let go of things when the going gets tough, derives from this song tat i've sung for 10 years. But hey, ain't it interesting tat a school song, doesnt tell one to strive, work hard, push urself, to be the best, beat the rest, blah blah, but tells u, that all things in life goes round in cycles, after the sun the rain, after the rain the sun.... Teaches you the way of life, and that we all have the same purpose in life, be we low or high- to grow...

I certainly hope i'm not stagnant. And when i ever get stagnant, hope that i'll remember this song and draw inspiration from there.

Haha, which reminds me of a sterotype of my alma mater. There was one article on the papers, that talked about the different types of gal schools that breed different types of gals for this society. That RG gives achievers, MG gives God-dutiful servants, and tat my school prepares the gals to become dutiful wives and loving mothers to their child. Hahaha.... Well, looking at the history, how this school was founded, it makes lots of sense for this sterotype to stick still rite? But looking back again, i think even the upbringing that i received there, does try and make me a perfect housemaker... Arrgh... Hahhaha..

One more reason ernie oughts to start a family: she was born and trained for this purpose.
