Blogger's Challenge Day 01.

15 Facts 

I love Britain. Never have I been to this place...but I am in love with British accents, ancient British buildings, British comedy, and British music.

I rock out to several different genres of music {I can't just choose one} ~~indie (rock/pop/techno/folk), normal rock, britpop, alternative, hip hop, classical, piano, jazz....INDIE!~~

I love to eat and cook exotic foods.

I am Sri Lankan.

I love to write, and have recently begun to do so in French. 

I paint abstract.

I write metaphorical songs.

I absolutely love astronomy. The stars...the universe...they fascinate me. 

I read a lot. Pretty much any genre.

I hate scary movies. My idea of scary: Deja Vu, Inception, Shutter Island...etc. Things that are a battle of the mind kind of creep me out. I'm getting over it though. 

I love to dance, though I've never taken lessons.

I am absolutely obsessed with Star Wars. Yoda is my hero. 

I play the piano, recorder, know a little saxaphone, a little guitar, and have experimented with a harmonica and want to learn the banjo because weird instruments are the coolest most unique things ever. Anything that's "different" and wouldn't be used by artists in the Billboard Top 100 are things I am completely interested in. 

I wear turquoise eye shadow, and don't care what the prepsters think. 

I have no idea what I'm going to be when I grow up, but I trust the God who breathed air into my lungs. I owe it all to Him...for He knows the plans He has for me.....plans to prosper...and not to harm. Plans to give me hope and a future. {{Jeremiah 29:11}}

Remembrance Day

11/11/11/2010.
Did you take part in the One Minute of Silence? I know it's not the eleventh yet, but I'm pretty sure we've all got the school day off tomorrow, and have had an assembly of honour for these patriots today.

This year, I've had a whole new take on Remembrance Day. In English we've read "All Quiet On The Western Front" and poems by Wilfred Own and Rupert Brooke....In History it's been a very deep focus on WWI....
And all in all....I am very thankful....so incredibly thankful....

These soldiers...young men...left their families and loved ones, in 1914, to fight....
They were ignorant of the horrors of war, to the murder of innocence they'd have to face, to all they'd be losing.
I am soo incredibly thankful for these soldiers who kept walking on, who kept fighting, who stood their ground to give us Freedom, Peace, and Integrity. Thanks to these soldiers...we are able to live, love, and hope.
If I could, I would name each and every one of you millions of soldiers who had to face the treacherous atrocity of war.

Thank you.


Watching more "I Am Second" videos.... This one is from Brian Welch....an ex-rockstar. VERY inspirational. Times a million.

"Contentment is given to you in life, because you don't have to look anywhere else. And you're exactly where you ned to be. And your question about life is answered."-Brian "Head" Welch (from KORN)

You need to watch the video. If you don't have the time, skim down to 6:58.....but I strongly encourage you to watch this. Really.

I'm off to piano lessons, then to a local play. :)

ALL THIS TALK

of viruses--and now im getting all the stupid symptoms. Dare I describe everything I've seen in those Bio videos????? I think not!!!!

Gross.

I blame it on my two buds Empress P. and Essentially B. OMGSH!

P+B+J= PB&J!!!!!

{[(as you may have noticed, i get excited over the most trivial things)]} 

haha i can't wait to tell you guys that at school :) 

Anyways, things have not changed the least bit in Bio 11. Other then the fact Mr. Crow gave us one HUMONGO flipping, overbearing textbook. NO DOUBT containing orotund ideas!!! 

The pompous deliverance of society. Boy, I tell you. 

Onward~~~!

In English we are studying sonnets of war by Rupert Brooke. Fascinating writer. I may have curious reasons to why I think his writings to be acutely bright in their truth, but I admire the sense of passion and valour. 

We're also in the midst of discussing how war can be honourable...why it's honourable. I won't discuss the matter of my opinions here (because I'm going to write a couple paragraphs on it for homework) but I will say that I do admire the idea even though the thought of war is just to prey upon the resources of vain nature.  Despite all the rage had in opposition to what we do not have, it is quite amenable: the bravery shown for one's country against all odds for the rights of freedom--that display of such patriotism is what I find to be quite reputable.....respectable....

Maybe I'll have the ounce of intrepid dignity to share my opinions during class this time.....

Memo: I shall be trying a new beverage at Starbucks on Thursday....

Soy Green Tea Latte? or a Tazo Passion?

Memo #2: RESIST ALL TEMPTATION OF GETTING A CAFE AMERICANO, JAZZY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

gosh. it'll be hard :P :D
