Sand & Stone

TWO FRIENDS WERE WALKINGTHROUGH THE DESERT.

DURING SOME POINT OF THE JOURNEY, THEY HAD ANARGUMENT; AND ONE FRIENDSLAPPED THE OTHER ONE IN THE FACE.

THE ONE WHO GOT SLAPPED WAS HURT,

BUT WITHOUT SAYING ANYTHING,WROTE IN THE SAND: TODAY MY BEST FRIENDSLAPPED ME IN THE FACE.

THEY KEPT ON WALKING,UNTIL THEY FOUND AN OASIS,

WHERE THEY DECIDED TO TAKE A BATH.

THE ONE WHO HAD BEEN SLAPPED GOT STUCK IN THEMIRE AND STARTED DROWNING, BUT THE FRIEND SAVED HIM.

AFTER HE RECOVERED FROM THE NEAR DROWNING,HE WROTE ON A STONE:

'TODAY MY BEST FRIENDSAVED MY LIFE '.

THE FRIEND WHO HAD SLAPPED AND SAVED HIS BEST FRIEND ASKED HIM,

'AFTER I HURT YOU,YOU WROTE IN THE SAND AND NOW,YOU WRITE ON A STONE, WHY?'

THE FRIEND REPLIED'WHEN SOMEONE HURTS US WE SHOULD WRITE IT DOWN IN SAND, WHERE WINDS OFFORGIVENESS CAN ERASE IT AWAY.

BUT, WHEN SOMEONE DOES SOMETHING GOOD FOR US,WE MUST ENGRAVE IT IN STONEWHERE NO WIND CAN NEVER ERASE IT.'

LEARN TO WRITE YOUR HURTS IN THE SAND AND TOCARVE YOURBENEFITS IN STONE.

THEY SAY IT TAKES A MINUTE TO FIND A SPECIALPERSON,

AN HOUR TOAPPRECIATE THEM,

A DAY TO LOVE THEM,

BUT THEN AN ENTIRE LIFE TO FORGET THEM.

DO NOT VALUE THE THINGS YOU HAVE IN YOUR LIFE, BUT VALUE WHO YOU HAVE IN YOUR LIFE !

Belmonte's Pizza Nite

Haven't being blogging for sometime... well, heaps happened over the mid semester break- i guess happenings more of what i had to complete prior to uni reopen.

Anyhow, this day- dinner was rather interesting- i had Belmonte pizza!! It may sound like any other ordinary pizza but this is not the case at least from my point of view. The pizza is stuff with some much ingredients on each piece and just having one piece will fill you to the brim i bet!! Well, the most two for girls- unless you have been staving for like ages then maybe more.

It was actually a belated birthday celebration for Kate. It was good to have most of the Saunders' block peeps out this night. It is also my first time going out with them. It is really nice to get to know them and interact. There all have different humour and it is really entertaining.

We ordered so much that we could hardly each more but the boys really could eat especially Brendan. He had like 3 slides and they were pretty huge servings. What more, we also had side dishes cheesy garlic bread (which i must say it is good but too much garlic i feel; even though i do like garlic) & salad thingy. All in all, we have a table filled with unhealthy food.

I had a go in each of the dishes and they were all good!!!

Yep- so if anyone loves pizza- go to Belmonte Pizza (@ Pennant Hills) it is tops!!

Finally, i got my craving of pizza fulfilled- i don't think i will want pizza for sometime now; i am still so full!!!!!!!!!!

Day off from studies

Well well... mid semester break is finally coming. I have been waiting impatiently for it. I am so glad that after tomorrow it will be officially 2 weeks of break.

Anyhow, nothing much happen over the past one week. But, this particular day, studies was not in my agenda to a rather large extent.

When over to EFS this morning to play around with a new statistical/ mathematical program which i was introduced just a day ago known as "Scientific Notebook". It is a rather interesting program in the aspect of my mathematics & statistic world. As much as i will like to own a copy of it so that i can use it anytime but it is too costly for its even very basic licences. Oh well, since EFS labs have it, i will make do with it until, i have decided to establish my career in it that i will go deep consideration on having one. It had all the mathematical symbol as well as statistical technical icons all at hand- really handy, that means i will not need to hunt the entire Microsoft to get what i want and at times there is not sure available features.

Oh ok, so much of not having a study day---- after playing around with it, i when over to mac centre to do a couple of my "to do list for the day". Getting adjusted this day felt so good. I was totally stiffed over the last couple of days but Dan was great in reliving it.

After which, i met up with Johnny... had lunch and then we kinda off decided that we will just shop around for a bit. It was like after few minutes, he thought that a movie will be good as we were both free for the afternoon; which i must say is pretty rare in my calender of events. In addition, it came to me as a surprise that he is wanting to watch a show. Anyhow, i was all up for it. Head over to Greater Union and started to decide what to watch. We both had our 1st choice as Step Up 2- main plot: Romantic sparks occur between two dance students from different backgrounds at the Maryland School of the Arts.; so that was the movie we watched. But, prior to that as the movie only starts in about 1.5 hours time we will basically going round and round the shops and just window shopping most of the time and chatting about random stuff; that was a great way of catching up and just doing what most girls favour, shopping.

I was not too sure if the movie was going to be my type as i have not got a glimpse of the preview before. But, i did enjoy it- i thought there was 2 parts of it which did really hit me hard. One of which was where Andie made the decision not to join the rest of the group mates to dance out in the street but her foster carer believe in her and encourage her to go for it, believing in her potential did make me a little emotional as i have also like other to believe in my capability and give me the support as a motivation force. The other was when Andie made the statement of what street dancing is all about; having people from different creed and walks of life coming together and doing what they are passionate about. I totally is in support of it, i believe that it is only when you pursue in something that you like that you will not only success but is going to give you a life time of happiness doing it no matter how difficult things are.

Thus, a little conclusion for the movie, The movie was Good! However, it made me wonder why Chaz's jacket was dry after having danced in the rain for the last part whereas everybody else was soaked. Moose's moves was awesome especially the part where he broke down on the steps of an all so classical artistic school!

Still up & kicking

Baaaa... i have been pretty dead with assignments after assignments with tests in almost every subject. That's "normal" in my current life as a student as i think the lecturers and tutors are all jealous that we are having a mid- break soon lol and they don't so to please themselves, they are torturing us with what they can at the moment.

I am still surviving in a way. One more week then i will get to have a 2 weeks break. I can foresee that it is not going to be a complete break but one with tons of work and catch up to do. But still, it is holiday so there is a chance of slacking.

As you might have guess, not much interesting happening other than it was my 1st test/ exam in MQ last wednesday. That did not as well as i wanted; it is rather tedious lol- or should i say i did only a last minute study. I also have a complain to make can----- the uni's desk are so small that i can hardly find a space to put my pen and paper and to make myself feel comfy enough to do my paper. In my previous school, at least we get a decent work space!!!!!!

Anyhow, i got to go soon. I am popping into my blog as i have no idea how to start my STAT 273 assignments. I kept rewriting it but something is telling me that i am not getting my point across so i guess, i should continue in search of my inspiration in completing my report and have it pass on to my partner.

Will write more soon. Oh yes, before i forget- to all my auzzie peeps, daylight saving ends today so if you have not remember to turn your clock one hour back and get an hour of extra sleep then remember to do so.
