As I said

'On the eve of an important exam, will you cater to your best friend's need, provided that he/she is desperately in need of someone to help, or will you heck care and study for your exam?'

I mentioned this in my last post. A dilemma which I got from one of my friends' online journal. Basically test our so-called '义气' or loyalty. What will you do? I think there is nothing more important than friend. What's exam when your best best friend is in trouble. Exam will only get you a piece of paper, what friends bring to our life is something much more. My friend chose studying but my choice is pretty clear at the moment.

I came across an interesting article today while I'm looking through all the blogs that I can find. The article can be found here What the article is basically talking about is badmouthing people in blog can land you in trouble. Basically, what I feel is ... who cares? Teachers ought to understand that when they enter the industry, their behaviour will go under the scrutiny of the students and it's unavoidable that students express their distaste for their teachers in other ways, since they can't express it outwardly in school. I feel that if teachers have so much time to look for their students' blog, they might as well spend more time improving on their own style of teaching so that their name won't appear in a negative way in other blogs again. By punishing a student for badmouthing the teacher, the teacher is in fact, indirectly covering his/her guilt since if he/she is innocent, he/she has nothing to fear from the badmouthing. I seriously think that teachers should reflect upon themselves to see what they have done to deserve a place in the 'hall of fame' among students. What I have to say that teachers who enjoy their work will get along well with students.

Enough of my rattling. Meanwhile I found another song which I felt that I should post the lyrics:

Spend all your time waiting
For that second chance
For the break that will make it ok
There's always some reason
To feel not good enough
And it's hard at the end of the day
I need some distraction
Oh beautiful release
Memories seep from my veins
Let me be empty
And weightless and maybe I'll find some peace tonight

In the arms of the Angel
Far away from here
From this dark cold hotel room
And the endlessness that you fear
You are pulled from the wreckage
Of your silent reverie
You're in the arms of the Angel
May you find some comfort here

So tired of the straight line
And everywhere you turn
There's vultures and thieves at your back
The storm keeps on twisting
You keep on building the lies
That you make up for all that you lack
It don't make no difference
Escaping one last time
It's easier to believe
In this sweet madness
Oh this glorious sadness
That brings me to my knees

In the arms of the Angel far away from here
From this dark cold hotel room
And the endlessness that you fear
You are pulled from the wreckage
Of your silent reverie

In the arms of the Angel
May you find some comfort here
You're in the arms of the Angel
May you find some comfort here - Sarah Mclachlan

I think a lot of you all might have heard of this song before. It's called Angel in case you have not heard of it.

Shack sia and I'm signing off now.
