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.

Back to school today, sigh, I really think my voice is not loud enough. How do teachers do it?

I have to meet a student's parent tomorrow, as well as plan a test by tomorrow. Haha, but I'm home already - I only get paid for 5.5 hours! I also found out that actually long term relief teachers can be employed on contract even though they only have A level qualifications, so at least they get more monetary reward for their work?

I'm actually not sure I want to teach my whole life, it seems like a very mundane job. I don't really enjoy dealing with teenagers and their attitude problems, but I don't know what else I want to do, so I guess I'll stick to it and do the best I can.

Oh, I found out that Amanda from music has a boyfriend in OCS too! Apparently she saw me on sunday. What sad lives all of us lead........

Today is the 16th day of 20 days. We're on our way.

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.
