| 笑話人哋像細路、因爲天真冇知、太可愛。但當看反自己、發覺原來自己與他一樣咁無知。
rough translation:
looking at a friend, and laughing because he is innocent and naive just like a little boy (so cute!!). but when I look back at the things I do I begin to realize that I am no different from him, just as naive and innocent in some ways... =(

| I'm so happy... just a few days ago encountered someone from High school once again... as we talked, so many forgotten memories came back. That feeling is kind of weird it is as if I had amnesia and forgotten some of those lost memories and all of a sudden they came back... its like I just discovered that some things have happened... silly me XD.

campus life is indeed a lot different than high school/elementary school life. I was at school yesterday from 9-9, but I did not even remember seeing or having the slightest reminders that it was Remembrance Day, I think that's actually quite sad. There were no assemblies, no times of silent (during 11), no music, no posters, just A&W was the only place that had poppies.
Remembrance Day is a day where we remember those who had fought for peace, sacrificed their lives for us yet as students of a (quite prestigious) university, we always talk about peace through classes in Political Science (and other studies). I cannot believe we had neglected this date. Sure there were signs of poppies, but only a few wore them, the few I came across less than 20 people who wore poppies.
I feel ashamed to find out it was Remembrance day when I got home at 10 last night when I went on Facebook and a friend (who is currently attending high school) put on his status "Remembrance Day". Perhaps its the workload we get during this time... but still... that should not be an excuse.
These were just two simple words yet they had so much impact on me. The connection that he was a high school student and "Remembrance Day" reminded me of the school assemblies I use to attend to remember this day and most important what it means to us. It really makes me wonder why didn't anyone do anything about this day.... surely at least some windpipe music in the Student Centre... but not even a poster of a poem: in Flanders Field.
A phrase quickly flashes across my mind: if history is forgotten, it will repeat itself...

I can't exactly "like" watching it now, but when I have kids, I would definitely let them watch it!! its such a great show :) Happy 40th anniversary!! ^^
does this song bring back a lot of memories?
The Sesame Street Song
Sunny Day
Sweepin' the clouds away
On my way to where the air is sweet
Can you tell me how to get,
How to get to Sesame Street
Come and play
Everything's A-OK
Friendly neighbors there
That's where we meet
Can you tell me how to get
How to get to Sesame Street
It's a magic carpet ride
Every door will open wide
To Happy people like you--
Happy people like
What a beautiful
Sunny Day
Sweepin' the clouds away
On my way to where the air is sweet
Can you tell me how to get,
How to get to Sesame street...
How to get to Sesame Street
How to get to...
