Easter break has come and all students were living school. i was in school with some of my friends. at first i thought that the school was going to be boring but it turned to be fun. we became one big family, normal days you will see only two or three going to watch a movie but during easter the whole school went to watch a movie " KING KONG". the movie was very interesting, all the students had fun. when the movie was over, we went back to our dorm and we had a party that was very interesting. everyone started showing the moves that they never showed. we finished the party and everyone went to sleep.

Wisdom, to be wisdom, cannot be coerced or received passivly, but must be affirmed by one's own reason, tested against one's own experience and heart.
Imagination is inseparable from experience , since even what we experience at the immediate moment is only partially observed.
Hope is not faith but the breath that propels faith up through the larynx to where it may be shaped by the tongue.
Happiness is by definition the state to which all aspire, For most, that state is one of deep and lastind pleasure.
We are born with a taste for beauty and goodness, finding in them our deepest and most lasting pleasure. This is our gift as humans, though because of varying endowment and education we enjoy this gift to varying degree.
Religions are the raiments of wisdom.
God is a metaphor of being.
All wisdom can be comprehended with reference to the material world.
Mystical experience is experience, not wisdom.
Wisdom is everywhere the same. It has, however, a large and varied wardrobe.
Thus while wisdom may appear to be different at different times and in different places, stripped naked it is familiar to all.
Why, then, have various generations and cultures practiced such evils as human sacrifice, genocide, and slavery?
Practices come and go; wisdom abides.
Wisdom is not what is wise, but that should be done, but why it should be done; not the answer, but the explanation.
Wisdom is simple; knowledge, complex.
Wisdom is finite; knowledge, infinite.

To appear wise, one must talk;
To be wise, one must listen.
To appear to do good, one must be busy;
To do good, one must know when to stay aside.
To appear to lead, one must put oneself first;
To lead, one must put oneself last.
To appear caring, one must give an advice;
To be caring, one must give space.
To appear to love, one must know how to give;
To give, one must know also how to receive.
To appear happy, one must smile;
To be happy, one must be free of tears.

Mothers and daughters ought to be friends,
But there is a lot that gets in the way.
The determined pursuit of opposite ends,
Ends up as harsh words we would rather not say.

The gift of life is never more or less. Either days or years are merely moments. Reverence remains the source of bliss. More memories do not increase remembrance. If death must early come, then let it be. Nor more or less than if it had come late. A part of a much larger mystery, leaving wind and wisdom in its wake. Longing is the music of our sphere, yearning for a time past time and space in which all that we love is ever here. Love everlasting, which is now our grace, living with us more than we can bear.

SCHOOL LIFE
School life is the best. you get the best experience in school. you meet different kind of people with different personalities. some may be good but some can be very annoying. most of the things you learn in life, you learn them from school. if you dont go school, i think that you have missed one of the best experie
nce in life. you learn how to take responsibilities in school, like cleaning up your room, washing your clothes, waking ver
y early and the things you have to know. school life is the best and i think that everyone should have the right to eperience it.

MY FIRST DAY IN AAUN
i was so afraid that i didnt know anyone in the school and dont know how to cope for the first few days, but it turned out to be very easy. when i entered the school i saw different faces but none was familiar. i entered the registration office and saw two of my old friends that i thought i will never meet again (Radiya & Fateemah). they were very welcoming, you know some people behave negatively when they see a person they didnt meet for a long time. i felt very relieved after meeting them. as i was doing my registration i met a girl (Aeesha) that looked very familiar, i didnt talk to her bec
ause i was afraid of embarrassment and she didnt talk to me either. i finis
hed my registration and was assigned a room, funny enough the girl was my room mate. we talked and our parents talked, arranged our things and went to the common room for a meeting. after that we had a mixer in the boys dorm where we got to know other people. we came back to our dorm, talked a little and went to bed.

MONDAY's ARE HORRIBLE
After an interesting weekend, all ithink about is monday morning. i have to wake up by 7am to get ready for my classes, my first class (INF) starts at 8am. after listening to all the buslines, e- commerce, disintermediation, i head to another class (PRECALCULUS) and listen to range, domain and all those magics of precalculus. as if this two are not enough for a day, i head to WRITING class, and the teacher would ask me to show my thesis statement, claims and topic sentences. after all this i rush to the cafetaria to get something for my stomach because if i dont, i wont get to the dorm alive.
i know you all think that i have finished for the day, the worst is yet to come thats JAVA. i start the class at 4:30pm. Fati B would be next to me chatting while i will be there pretending to be listening but nothing is entering my head but a little. a question would be asked and i would like what the hell is that but the GURU(Fati B) who was chatting would look up and say "parameter" and the teacher would say "correct". what the hell am i doing in this class, i dont belong here. after java i feel relieved but you know ABTI assignments are waiting for me.
OH GOD
HELP ME!!!!
