tacitae per amica silentia lunae: admist the friendly silence of the soundless moonlight

I am weary, and I a stranger,

Lead me to the land of angels.

Be my eyes in time of darkness,

Be my shield against host of faery,

Be my wings till I find my home.

I am losing my voice due to yelling at the top of my voice just to teach. I have no more volume to increase when I need to shout at the class. Luckily, in most classes, I have a voluntary student amplifier who will tell the class "Miss Goh says keep quiet!". Embarrassing but helpful, though.

Hmm...some students are a bit weird. I have a healthy dislike for one of the classes I teach on wednesday - I dread this day! I think it's because of this girl who keeps staring at me in defiance...for no reason at all. She doesn't really do her work, but her grades are good. So, I shall take pride in the fact that someone actually cares enough to hate me..haha. Not nice, but at least better than people who stare at me very blankly. Of course, I am comfortable knowing that if I ever get too frustrated, I have all the reason in the world to shout at her yes?

Today is the 10th day of 21 days...sigh. Thank goodness for sunday.

And in the end,

it's not the years in your life that count,

but the life in your years.

And now I will show you the most excellent way:
If I speak in tongues of men and of angels, but have not love,
I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal.

If I have the gift of prophecy
and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge,
and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love,
I am nothing.

If I give up all I possess,
and surrender my body to the flames, but have not love,
I gain nothing.

Love is patient; love is kind;
it does not envy; it does not boast; it is not proud.
It is not rude; it is not self-seeking;
it is not easily angered; it keeps no record of wrongs.

Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.
It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

Love never fails. But where there are prophecies,
they will pass away; where there are tongues,
they will be stilled; where there is knowledge,
it will pass away.

For we know in part and we prophesy in part,
but when perfection comes,
the imperfect disappears.

When I was a child, I talked like a child,
I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child.
When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me.

Now we see but a poor reflection,
then we shall see face to face.

Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.

And now these three remain:

faith, hope and love, but the greatest of these is love.
