Mothertongue Os

PhEw~.. its been a long time since i last posted.. well, i just find it weird.. hMm.. oright juz checked my email and found this interesting, meaningful mail.. :

A well-known speaker started off his seminar
by holding up a $20.00 bill. In the room of 200, he asked,
"Who would like this $20 bill?"
Hands started going up.
He said, "I am going to give this $20 to one of you
but first, let me do this.
He proceeded to crumple up the $20 dollar bill.
He then asked, "Who still wants it?"
Still the hands were up in the air.
Well, he replied, "What if I do this?"
And he dropped it on the ground
and started to grind it into the floor with his shoe.
He picked it up, now crumpled and dirty.
"Now, who still wants it?"
Still the hands went into the air.
My friends, we have all learned a very valuable lesson.
No matter what I did to the money, you still wanted it
because it did not decrease in value.
It was still worth $20.
Many times in our lives,
we are dropped, crumpled, and ground into the dirt
by the decisions we make and
the circumstances that come our way.
We feel as though we are worthless.
But no matter what has happened or
what will happen, you will never lose your value.
Dirty or clean, crumpled or finely creased,
you are still priceless to those who DO LOVE you.
The worth of our lives comes not in what we do or who we
know,
but by WHO WE ARE.
You are special- Don't EVER forget it."

Basically, it touches my heart.. and i agree to it.. i hope this message can get to people who are more pessimistic.. to let u noe that.. everyone has his own value.. tts true! and everyone is different =)
Oyah.. haven tell u guys my O's MT result?! haha.. or u check it out at the board already? hehez.. i scored a A1!! Distinction for my oral.. PhEw..~ oman.. i dont know how to describe my feelings that day (12/08). Well, i was just hoping for a B3.. and that bloody hell CheeWee still laughed at me. Yeah, i failed my semester and scored a C5! for midyr.. haha.. and the final result was shocking right.. thats right.. i was so delighted.. but doesnt want to be 'hao lian'.. Generally i only told my mum.. then i don't know why.. all my aunties n uncles started phoning me n congratulating me.. haha! thanks ah! =)
Hmm.. juz now Angela and me went to buy present for Mark!~~ haha~ guess wad.. this is the only present we bought which we didnt really paid much attention to! =x Well, we had money.. budget ard $30+.. but just dont have the heart.. we entered the wallet shop.. and bought a Azozo wallet for $33.. we paid n left immediately.. n u noe wad, we spent less than 15mins looking and purchasing this present!!! =x Well, maybe becoz we are both very busy and tired after one full day at school. Aniway, the lesson i learnt is: The gift u received might be an expensive one, but the person might just bought it w/o much consideration and thinking if u like it or not.. While, if the gift is something cheap.. it means the person really spend a lot of time searching for it and wondering if u will like it.. becoz its not eazy to look for a cheap n nice gift! heheez =) But its true! isnt it?! haha..
Okie, now my mum is talking to Ms Low, My form teacher!!! duhz.. ~ update some other times! Cya!
