allow me to indulge in some madness before i attempt to begin on my 4000 word long ee. and so i know i am doing bd, but exactly what i am still unsure. what a failure. by tonight i have to get the exact topic and the outline of each chapter done. oh well, its only 4000 words i am sure i can do it. and so i was looking through my lit notes from the last 2 years and this is what i found. it was an unseen poem we did in class together.
Some say love it is a river
that drowns the tender reed
Some say love it is a razor
that leaves your soul to bleed
Some say love it is a hunger
an endless aching need
I say love it is a flower
and you it's only seed
It's the heart afraid of breaking
that never learns to dance
It's the dream afraid of waking that never takes the chance
It's the one who won't be taken
and the soul afraid of dying that never seems to live
When the night has been too lonely
and the road has been too long
and you think that love is only
for the lucky and strong
Just remember in the winter far beneath the bitter snows
lies the seed
that with the sun's love
in the spring
becomes the rose
-The Rose, Bette Midler
and i remember jiayi commenting on how nice the poem is. i like the last stanza especially its very encouraging at times. oh well its back to the madness of ee.
tok today was absolutely boring. i was bored to tears. thank god for jane and zul. if not i would have just died. tmr i am bringing a book a jacket and sit at the back during tok. that is if i am even going to show up in school. honestly, packing my cupboard and doing my ee would be a much more productive way to spend my day rather than at the tok nonsense. its obvious from the long breaks that they are just extending it for the sake of making it look like we had a fruitful day in school. at least it wasnt such a waste as there was the sat course.
