Meaningful Phrases

Written By Regina Brett (90 years old) of The Plain Dealer (Cleveland, Ohio)

1. Life isn't fair, but it's still good.
2. When in doubt, just take the next small step.
3. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone.
4. Your job won't take care of you when you are sick. Your friends and parents will. Stay in touch.
5. Pay off your credit cards every month.
6. You don't have to win every argument. Agree to disagree.
7. Cry with someone. It's more healing than crying alone.

9. Save for retirement starting with your first paycheck.
10. When it comes to chocolate, resistance is futile.
11. Make peace with your past so it won't screw up the present.
12. It's OK to let your children see you cry.
13. Don't compare your life to others. You have no idea what their journey is all about.
14. If a relationship has to be a secret, you shouldn't be in it.
15. Everything can change in the blink of an eye. But don't worry; God never blinks.
16. Take a deep breath. It calms the mind.
17. Get rid of anything that isn't useful, beautiful or joyful.
18. Whatever doesn't kill you really does make you stronger.
19. It's never too late to have a happy childhood. But the second one is up to you and no one else.
20. When it comes to going after what you love in life, don't take no for an answer.
21. Burn the candles, use the nice sheets, wear the fancy lingerie. Don't save it for a special occasion. Today is special.
22. Over prepare, then go with the flow.
23. Be eccentric now. Don't wait for old age to wear purple.

The Day I Died (by Just Jack)

This song speaks the simplest and most common stuffs in life that you probably won't notice, but when all the lucky little things comes together in one day, it just makes your day.

But the thing is.... normally, all the good stuffs won't come to you altogether, right?

Just Jack - The Day I Died on MUZU.

Drag myself from my bed
Around 20 past 6
Get my kids up make breakfast
1 egg 2 toast 3 weetabix

and as i sit down i look up
and your standing in the doorway sun at your back
in my old brown dressing gown
Well no one can love you more than i love you now, but i

Gotta go running for the bus
Coat flying and i try not to miss it this time
but the drivers waiting and thats strange
kids on the top deck quiet for a change
and theres no rain and no roadworks
in the bus lane and all my hurts run away
and im smiling as im punching in

the day i died was the best day of my life
the day i died was the best day of my life
tell my friends and my kids and my wife
everything will be alright
the day i died was the best day of my life

now the secretaries they got a smile for me
and the intray on my desks almost empty
I get a memo from executive Joe
saying Rob the gob is getting kicked out
for embezzling funds from the company account
and id be lying if i said i wasn't chuffed
cos i always hated rob
and now they'll probably offer me robs old job

and in the park at lunch
theres no whinos on my favorite bench
none of that drunk chatter none of that pissy stench
and the scrawny little pigeons with the gammy legs
decide to dive bomb from someone elses sandwich instead
and theres something about the city today
like all the colors conspire to overwhelm the grey
and this close to the fire i can feel no cold
but a rainbow halo around my soul

the day i died was the best day of my life
the day i died was the best day of my life
tell my friends and my kids and my wife
everything will be alright
the day i died was the best day of my life

so i leave work get to the high street and i miss my bus
should i wait for another no i cant be arsed
i begin to walk
and rush hour crowd seem to part like the red sea
and im stopping at the offy
20 cigarettes and a 6 pack to relax me
and as i cross back over the street
i guess i never saw that taxi
i guess i never saw that taxi

the day i died was the best day of my life
the day i died was the best day of my life
tell my friends and my kids and my wife
everything will be alright
the day i died was the best day of my life

now i got 99 red balloons floating in the summer sky
i got 99 red balloons drifting past my dreamy eyes
i got 99 red balloons floating in the summer sky
i got 99 red balloons drifting past my dying eyes

I'll definitely be lost when I'm on the verge of...

We all know it'll come one day, but thinking of it now just makes me feel lost and insecure... I hate that feeling.

You will always remember this as...

Today, one of the kids in my Spanish class got caught texting. As our teacher was about to take his phone, he got up, and sprinted to the door before he stopped in the doorway and shouted

"You will always remember this as the day you almost caught Captain Jack Sparrow"

before he ran out of the room and down the hallway. He never came back to class. It absolutly made my day. MLIA

Art of Lying and Deciphering

I was talking to Weilin on Msn.

She told me she is gd at lying and wants me to hired her as a liar in my house so that she could make up stories for my mother. Minutes later, I sorta tricked her instead of the other way round. She told me sometimes tricking people into believing they tricked someone is also skill.
Now we're discussing about art of lying and deciphering, and trying to convince her to tell me wat's up her sleeves.
