I have decided to exterminate the opposite sex from my life, so if you are a boy, a man or whatever your stupid gender likes to call itself (asshole, asswipe, GOD'S MISTAKE), DON'T TALK TO ME.

Quoted from the news: After Israel destroyed his home and office, Nasrallah (the Hezballah leader) said, "You wanted an open war and we are ready for an open war."

Oh.my.God.

NHS, Yearbook and MILOSEVIC!

Thu, 16 Mar 2006 14:32:26 GMT

Two annoucements. Actually, three.

1.) Watch National Honor Society's SINGLED OUT: THE DATING SHOW event this Friday, February 16th! From 4-6 at the Little Theatre...entrance fee is 50 pesos. Please come, we need your support. Funds will go to Pakistani victims!

2.) Attention, seniors! The senior picture and video will be taken on Thursday, March 23rd during lunch. Attire is semi-formal. Go to this website for more details...you MUST go to this website: www.geocities.com/ismseniorvideo......if you aren't there, we won't crop you in. I won't be generous this time like the superlatives situation.

3.) So most of you have heard, Milosevic died last week. I didn't like the guy, hell I didn't even like his lawyer. I watched his trial two months ago while I was visiting the Hague and anyone could tell that his lawyer's arguments were going nowhere. Half the judges were asleep. Literally! You get the point.

Edit.

I have something else to say. Thinking of anti-christ people like Milosevic made me think of Hitler. But you know what's odd? So fahhreaking odd?! Franklin D. Roosevelt and Hitler are more common than people think. That's ridiculous. And scary. I can give you five reasons that make Hiter the not-so-antithesis of FDR. If you ask me, I'll tell you. But then again, you probably won't want to know how one of the greatest American Presidents is comparable to one of the worst men in history. Some people even say that FDR was on the road to dictatorship. The world is strange.

Tue, 07 Mar 2006 12:57:30 GMT

i love e.e. cummings...

since feeling is first

since feeling is first
who pays any attention
to the syntax of things
will never wholly kiss you;

wholly to be a fool
while Spring is in the world

my blood approves,
and kisses are a far better fate
than wisdom
lady i swear by all flowers. Don't cry
--the best gesture of my brain is less than
your eyelids' flutter which says

we are for eachother: then
laugh, leaning back in my arms
for life's not a paragraph

And death i think is no parenthesis

Mon, 19 Dec 2005 18:51:10 GMT

TONIGHT WAS AWESOME. I LOVE MY FRIENDS.

Nelson Mandela

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate,” Mandela said. “Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that frightens us most. We ask ourselves, ‘Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?’ Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world."

Holocaust

Wed, 14 Dec 2005 06:12:35 GMT

The Holocaust is one of the many consequences of political leaders in the 1940's seeking to justify eugenics.

I beg you
do something
learn a dance step
something to justify your existence
something that gives you the right
to be dressed in your skin in your body hair
learn to walk and to laugh
because it would be too senseless
after all
for so many to have died
while you live
doing nothing with your life
- Charlotte Delbo, French Holocaust Survivor

I love this poem. Charlotte Delbo mixes sadness and beauty here amazingly. It's beautiful because it makes you realize the glory in even the most simplistic human practice- walking. It's sad because we recognize the hardship that the Holocaust survivors went through...and because it dawns on us that we haven't taken advantage of our existence.

Sigh, I find such wonderful things while searching the net.

Edit;

Look what I found! Yet another inspiring quote. His intelligence just...brightens up my day!

"Where I am, I don’t know. I’ll never know, in the silence you don’t know, you must go on, I can’t go on, I’ll go on."
- Samuel Beckett

The Christmas that my family decides to leave the country is the Christmas that you all decide to visit! When you coming back home, Danni? Message/Email me. I miss you!

Ahhh, i love the fact that those I've missed all these years will be here in a month=)

A friend of our family committed suicide yesterday. I didn't know him personally, but his family and himself were close to my aunts, uncles and cousins in Lake Forest, IL. Hearing all these stories about him and just everything is so disheartening. Please pray for him.

Edit:

I've been thinking about it and it isn't fair what Alex did. He was being selfish. He left so many people in this world who love him so much. Now that he's dead, they're completley heartbroken. My uncle says that his mom is hysterical- she refuses to speak with anyone, even her other children. Alex took his own life, but he took four other lives as well- his mom's, dad's, brother's and sister's.

I looked outside earlier today, and for a moment, I thought to myself, shit, it's such a beautiful day. That's when I wondered, what was Alex thinking? Alex was such a beautiful (inside and out) kid, with so many things to be grateful to God for. I think we all need to see the beauty of life once in awhile. All of us are guilty of only seeing the bad and that has dire consequences to our emotional (and even spiritual) well-being. Alex's death is a lesson to all that we should cherish life and not take for granted those around us. If you think someone is having a bad day, go up to and hug that person. Maybe you'll be changing his or her life forever. Maybe if someone told Alex that day that everything would be ok, he wouldn't have committed this act.

Amazing

Courtesy of Joyee.

Your view on yourself:

You are down-to-earth and people like you because you are so straightforward. You are an efficient problem solver because you will listen to both sides of an argument before making a decision that usually appeals to both parties.

The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:

You are a true romantic. When you are in love, you will do anything and everything to keep your love true.

Your readiness to commit to a relationship:

You prefer to get to know a person very well before deciding whether you will commit to the relationship.

The seriousness of your love:

You are very serious about relationships and aren't interested in wasting time with people you don't really like. If you meet the right person, you will fall deeply and beautifully in love.

Your views on education:

Education is very important in life. You want to study hard and learn as much as you can.

The right job for you:

You have many goals and want to achieve as much as you can. The jobs you enjoy are those that let you burn off your considerable excess energy.

How do you view success:

You are confident that you will be successful in your chosen career and nothing will stop you from trying.

What are you most afraid of:

You are afraid of things that you cannot control. Sometimes you show your anger to cover up how you feel.

Who is your true self:

You are full of energy and confidence. You are unpredictable, with moods changing as quickly as an ocean. You might occasionally be calm and still, but never for long.

Incredibly accurate!

i love holland!

Its been a long time since i've updated this thing. anyway, school has started. i don't mean to be cynical, but school sucks and i wish it were over already. i can't wait to graduate and get out of here. it's so stifling in this country and in ISM. 8 more months to go and ill be a graduate!

love, sam

PS> BUY TICKETS FOR COMEDY NIGHT! bring 150 pesos on Monday. Please come!! It would really mean a lot to me, yoonah, joy, trixie, tashi and a few others if you would come.

Oh, and I don't know why a bunch of you seniors are hesistant to buy tickets for Comedy Night. This is for charity. Have a heart guys! Don't say YOU dont have money when clearly YOU do. Wouldn't you rather save someone's life for 2,500 pesos than buy a freakin damn shoe?!! It kinda shows how selfish the ISM student body is.
