An e-mail to Mary

    Hi, Mary!

    How are you? I miss you so much!

    I arrived in Rome last week and I’m having a lot of fun. This morning my parents and I woke up at 8:00 and had a great breakfast at the hotel. Afterwards, I walked a little and saw many tourists (many from Russia and China) and even some famous people!

    Now we are going to Venice.

    How are things in Las Vegas? Come meet us!

    See you soon!

    Paul.

“The Little Prince”, now, is a movie

Alex Weiss

    An all-time favorite children’s book, The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry has been turned into a beautifully animated movie — and it’s finally being released. The inspiring lessons, timeless story, and beautiful quotes from The Little Prince make this a perfect choice for an on-screen adaptation. At one point or another, your parents read this book to you when you were a child, and then you picked it up later on in life, realizing how incredibly important this small book truly is.

In The End

Linkin Park

One thing, I don’t know why

It doesn’t even matter how hard you try

Keep that in mind

I designed this rhyme

To remind myself of a time when

I tried so hard

In spite of the way you were mocking me

Acting like I was part of your property

Remembering all the times you fought with me

I’m surprised it got so

Things aren’t the way they were before

You wouldn’t even recognize me anymore

Not that you knew me back then

But it all comes back to me in the end

You kept everything inside

And even though I tried, it all fell apart

What it meant to me will eventually be a memory of a time when

I tried so hard

And got so far

But in the end

It doesn’t even matter

I had to fall

To lose it all

But in the end

It doesn’t even matter

I’ve put my trust in you

Pushed as far as I can go

For all this

There’s only one thing you should know

I’ve put my trust in you

Pushed as far as I can go

For all this

There’s only one thing you should know

Beautiful Girls

Sean Kingston

Your way too beautiful girl

That’s why it’ll never work

You’ll have me suicidal, suicidal

When you say it’s over

Damn all these beautiful girls

They only wanna do your dirt

They’ll have you suicidal, suicidal

When they say it’s over

See it started at the park

Used to chill after dark

Oh when you took my heart

That’s when we fell apart

‘Cause we both thought

That love last forever (last forever)

They say we’re too young

To get ourselves sprung

Oh we didn’t care

We made it very clear

And they also said

That we couldn’t last together (last together)

See it’s very divine, girl

You’re one of a kind

But you mush up my mind

You ought to get declined

Oh Lord

My baby is driving me crazy

They discover a wardrobe in Professor Digory Kirke’s house that leads to the magical land of Narnia. The Pevensie children help Aslan, a talking lion, save Narnia from the evil White Witch, who has reigned over the land of Narnia for a century of perpetual winter with no Christmas. The children become kings and queens of this new-found land and establish the Golden Age of Narnia, leaving a legacy to be rediscovered in later books.

Dance Monkey

Tones And I

I’ve never seen anybody do the things you do before

They say

Move for me, move for me, move for me, ay-ay-ay

And when you’re done I’ll make you do it all again

I said: Oh my God, I see you walking by

Take my hands, my dear, and look me in my eyes

Just like a monkey, I’ve been dancing my whole life

And you just beg to see me dance just one more time

Ooh, I see you, see you, see you every time

    An international student who majors in engineering drops by the engineering department office and asks the secretary, “Can you tell me where the English department is?” The secretary smiles and responds, “I don’t know, actually. It’s probably somewhere in the Humanities Building. Do you have a campus map?” The student turns around and leaves. The secretary is taken aback and feels slightly uncomfortable. She wonders why the student left so abruptly.

    People who interact with ESL students have commented that some seem to express gratitude excessively for small considerations, even to the point of embarrassing the person they are speaking. Others seem downright rude because they do not say thank you when they are expected to.

DAVID GUETTA - TITANIUM

You shout it out

But I can’t hear a word you say

I’m talking loud not saying much

I’m criticized but all your bullets ricochet

You shoot me down, but I get up

I’m bulletproof nothing to lose

Fire away, fire away

Ricochet, you take your aim

Fire away, fire away

You shoot me down but I won’t fall, I am titanium

You shoot me down but I won’t fall 

I am titanium, I am titanium, I am titanium, I am titanium.
