hmm.. just want to share this to you guys.
its a poem entitled LIFE. its actually our piece in our speech choir in school. were now competing for it! haha
so, here it goes...

Life is not about keeping score
It is not about how many friends you have
Nor how accepted you are

It is not about who your family is
Nor how much money they have
Nor what kind of car you drive
Nor where you are sent to school
It is not about how beautiful or ugly you are
Nor what clothes you wear
What shoes you have on

It is not about what grades you get, how smart you are
How smart everybody else thinks you are
Nor how smart standardized tests say you are

Life is about who you love and who you hurt
It is about who you make happy or unhappy purposefully
It is about keeping or betraying trust
It is about friendship used as sanctity or a weapon

It is about what you say and mean
Maybe hurtful, maybe heartening
It is about starting rumors and contributing to petty gossip
It is about what judgements you pass and why
And to whom your judgements are spread

It is about who you have ignored with full control and intention
It is about jealousy, fear, ignorance and revenge
It is carrying inner hate and love
letting it grow and spreading it

But most of all, it is about using your life
to touch or poison other people's heart
In such a way that could have never occured alone
Only you choose the way those hearts are affected
And those choices are what life is all about


BOW! haha, we have to memorize all of that and then put some actions on it. haha.
mods, if you think this is nonsense. well, i have no choice. delete it. haha.

umm, if you are a participant of a speech choir or speech choral ion your school.. post the poems you are using as your piece.
