Transformers, quotes on writing, and NOT being a sheep!
Henry picked me up in a car which had received a facelift - yup, I noticed that there was something different! When we got to church, I noticed that Steven Wei was now a leader in training; cool stuff. Talked to Chris Lam about teaching / education; he loves kids, even if his courses seem very intense - seven last semester and two more completed in January alone?! Interacted with Jordan, Catherine, Golden, Chrystal, and some others: Canada Line, pencil crayons, chocolate squares, sickness, and more. Mike said that Danny sounded like a pedophile when he sang ALIVE FOREVERMORE; even Margaret told him to stop, haha!
Eric Ma, Reigan, and Eric T. led the Sparks in singing - interesting to see. Melia, Auntie Rebecca, and Chrystal asked why I was ripping pages out of my "Write it, baby!" journal - those had quotes on them! After Awana, Conor said that his last name didn't begin with a K (he was looking at a list of names) - I told him that it stood for "kindergarten," which he is in. He also said that he'd bring a motorcycle Transformer to Sunday School tomorrow; should be cool. Ian (who doesn't want to go to a sleepover) and Sean were quieter than usual, but it was still okay.
Here are a list of quotes from my "Write it, baby!" journal, which I got for only five dollars:
"The difficulty of literature is not to write, but to write what you mean; not to affect your reader, but to affect him precisely as you wish." - Robert Louis Stevenson
"Fill your paper with the breathings of your heart." - William Wordsworth
"Write down the thoughts of the moment. Those that come unsought for are commonly the most valuable." - Francis Bacon
"Writing is a way of talking without being interrupted." - Jules Renard
"If I don't write to empty my mind, I go mad." - Lord Byron
"True ease in writing comes from art, not chance. As those who move easiest have learned to dance." - Alexander Pope
"There are thousands of thoughts lying within a man that he does not know till he takes up the pen and writes." - William Makepeace Thackeray
"Looking back, I imagine I was always writing. Twaddle it was, too. But far better write twaddle or anything, anything, than nothing at all." - Katherine Mansfield
"More than kisses, letters mingle souls." - John Donne
"The words that enlighten the soul are more precious than jewels." - Hazrat Inayat Khan
"You will have written exceptionally well if, by skillful arrangement of your words, you have made an ordinary one seem original." - Horace
"Either write something worth reading, or do something worth writing." - Benjamin Franklin
"The art of writing is the art of discovering what you believe." - Gustave Flaubert
"Words are only painted fire; a book is the fire itself." - Mark Twain
"Words without thoughts never to heaven go." - William Shakespeare
"Reading makes a full man, conference a ready man, and writing an exact man." - Francis Bacon
"True glory consists in doing what deserves to be written; in writing what deserves to be read; and in so living as to make the world happier for our living in it." - Pliny the Elder
"Our admiration of fine writing will always be in proportion to its real difficulty and the apparent ease." - Charles Caleb Colton.
"I always write a good first line, but I have trouble in writing the others." - Molière
"To be a well-flavored man is the gift of fortune, but to write or read comes by nature." - William Shakespeare
Most of this sounds right... and someone used to say that I was too different. HA. He just couldn't handle me, that's all. :D

You Are Not a Sheep |
 You don't follow the crowd. In fact, whenever it's possible, you try to avoid the crowd. You don't like blending in, and you are a complete rebel. Being like everyone else is boring. You are a distinct individual, and you're definitely one of a kind. People probably consider you to be quite quirky. If anything, the herd ends up following you. And you find that to be highly annoying! |
