Ngày đầu tiên đi học...

Ngày đầu tiên đi học
Mẹ dắt tay đến trường
Em vừa đi vừa khóc
Mẹ dỗ dành bên em
Ngày đầu tiên đi học
Em mắt ướt nhạt nhòa
Cô vỗ về an ủi
Chao ôi ! sao thiết tha

This is what ran through my head this morning. My dad sang it to my yesterday before i left as a joke. Basically, it's saying on your first day of school, you're crying while holding your mom's hand. Mom tries her best to comfort you, but you're going to have to buck up and be the bigger person. I cried a lot on my first day of school. It's quite embarrassing because it's a joke that is told all the time. It's not really a joke, just a story that never gets old. At least i laugh with them. I'd rather that than be laughed at. I thought they had forgotten about my history, but when my dad started singing that little song, i couldn't help but smile. It brings back memories.

Today was nice. It was hard getting up, but once i was up i was ready for the day. It was a little chilly outside, besides that, the sun was up and the day was nice. I went to my first class and got my test back. Surprisingly, i got an A. Later on during the day, i got my quiz back that i knew nothing about and got another A. The day was definitely looking up. However, when i got my paper back in my next class, it wasn't as pretty. It was a sad B. My streak ended. Oh well, what can i expect from a paper that i spent 1.5 hrs on. All in all, the day was swell. Even when I found that out one of my friend is engaged. She's a year younger than me. I was kind of surprised she agreed because she was all worried about it. Why be so wishy-washy when you know you're just going to say yes. That way, you don't have to fuss and make a mess about it. I really didn't think she would go through with it. Well, all i can say is that i wish her the best.

I hope everyone is following the amazing Dancing With the Stars. How can you not love this show. I now have favorites. From the males, i like Steve Guttenberg, Adam Carolla, and Mario. Steve is charming and he is always smiling. It's like he really enjoys himself. You can see him exude wonderfulness. When i watch him dance, i can't help but smile a long with him. Adam is a talker. Sometimes i want him to shut up, but i like him. He's funny and makes me chuckle. His face is funny and he's paired with one of my favorite dancers. Mario is handsome. He can sing and dance very well. I'm glad he's dancing this season. From the females, i like Marlee Matlin, Priscilla Presley, and Kristi Yamguchi. Marlee is profoundly deaf, but she ceases to amaze me. She dances like she can hear everything. She's also very graceful and beautiful to watch. She's pure elegance. I didn't think Priscilla could dance. She can barely smile with all that botox. But when she got on the dance floor, she was pretty good. I have a soft spot for Elvis. I'm glad Priscilla is out there doing her thing. It just tells you that age is just a number. I love Kristi. She and Marlee are my to two females. The best part about Kristi is that she's asian! Yay! I love that. I remembered watching her on ice (i love figure skating and can watch it for hours!) and now i'm watching her on the dance floor. My, how time flies. I hope my favorites win! I'll be rootin' tootin' for them.

Onto miracles. I wrote about a news story earlier that i thought was miraculous. In Dallas, a mother threw her 2 children over a bridge into morning's traffic on I-30 before making the jump herself. Amazingly, all three survived the 22-foot fall. The mom and kids, ages 8 and 6, were hospitalized in stable conditions even though police reported that the 8 yr. old was struck by cars. The mother could face two charges of attempted capital murder. [read more here] What the heck? Isn't this crazy. I can't believe a mother would do that. How they survived that fall is absolutely amazing. I would think that if the fall didn't kill them, at least the cars would. It's brutal out there are drivers are careless and merciless. I make drivers (including myself) sound like a scary monster. It's just life! It's tough. Maybe there is something mentally wrong with the mother. In that case, she might be able to survive in court.

Cute picture of the day.

Cup of bunny anyone?
