Finally, I can say bye bye to my old TV. It has served my family and I for the past 10 years, clocking up to 3 to 4 hours of TV time per day. Sometimes when it’s in good mood, both of its speakers will be working, if it’s having PMS(assuming the TV to be female), then it will switch on only one of it. The best thing is we have to switch on it about half and hour ahead to warm up the cathode ray tube, before the blue screen flickers out images. When the show was about to reach the climax parts, the TV will be naughty and show us the blue screen again. Then I will miss out the best parts of the shows. I will “abuse” it by beating its buttocks and sides, to force the images come out.
There will be only one more week of torture when a new TV arrives my house next weekend. We went to Courts (BT) to choose a new TV as they were offering some great offers. And we get to trade-in our spoilt TV at some price (like free disposal of it). Yeah… and the new TV takes up much less space than the old TV cause it’s smaller. I will mis the TV, for it provided me much entertainment throughout my childhood years. It saw my family and I sitting together in the living room enjoying a show. It witnessed the growing up process of me, and contained the memories of my family.
(i'm so giving my TV a life to it, i'm a murderer... arrgh... haha)
As we count down to the end of prelims, we are welcoming the arrival of As.
Even though we lost, we won’t give up! Chances are aplenty, but we just can’t convert them to success. I believe setbacks will only make us grow stronger, to emerge as victors at the end.
The Arrow and The SongI shot an arrow into the air,It fell to earth, I knew not where;For, so swiftly it flew, the sightCould not follow it in its flight.I breathed a song into the air,It fell to earth, I knew not where;For who has sight so keen and strong,That it can follow the flight of song?Long, long afterward, in an oakI found the arrow, still unbroke;And the song, from beginning to end,I found again in the heart of a friend.by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, a poem on hope and friendship...
