lessons in life

I've learned that we don't have to change friends if we understand that friends change.
I've learned that no matter how good a friend is, they're going to hurt you every once in a while and you must forgive them for that.
I've learned that true friendship continues to grow, even over the longest distance. The same goes for true love.
I've learned that you can do something in an instant that will give you heartache for life.
I've learned that you should always leave loved ones with loving words. It may be the last time you see them.
I've learned that you can keep going long after you can't.
I've learned that regardless of how hot and steamy a relationship is at first, the passion fades and there had better be something else to take its place.
I've learned that heroes are the people who do what has to be done when it needs to be done, regardless of the consequences.
I've learned that money is a lousy way of keeping score.
I've learned that my best friend and I can do anything or nothing and have the best time.
I've learned that sometimes the people you expect to kick you when you're down, will be the ones to help you get back up.
I've learned that sometimes when I'm angry I have the right to be angry, but that doesn't give me the right to be cruel.
I've learned that just because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have.
I've learned that maturity has more to do with what types of experiences you've had and what you've learned from them, and less to do with how many years you have lived.
I've learned that it isn't always enough to be forgiven by others. Sometimes you have to learn to forgive yourself.
I've learned that no matter how bad your heart is broken the world doesn't stop for your grief.
I've learned that our background and circumstances may have influenced who we are, but we are responsible for who we become.
I've learned that just because two people argue, it doesn't mean they don't love each other. And just because they don't argue, it doesn't mean they do love each other.
I've learned that you shouldn't be so eager to find out a secret. It could change your life forever.
I've learned that two people can look at the same thing and see something totally different.
I've learned that your life can be changed in a matter of hours by people who don't even know you.

I've learned that no matter how much I care, some people just don't care back.
I've learned that it takes years to build up trust, and only seconds to destroy it.
I've learned that it's not what you have in your life but who you have in your life that counts
I've learned that you should always leave loved ones with loving words. It may be the last time you see them.
I've learned that you can keep going long after you think you can't.
I've learned that we are responsible for what we do, no matter how we feel.
I've learned that either you control your attitude or it controls you.

for me, i've learned that life's hard nevertheless life's beautiful. but, really, i need to be loved. yeah, it seems i've hurted so many people's heart but, now it's a bit different. i cant explain what i really need. whatever, yeah it is.

P.S: i think this is the most inspirational quote i've ever read. (well, i know too it's not only 1 quote, they bundled it) but, you have to read all of it. this is what we called a real life. for the darken (bold sentences) and the underlined one, that means much for me.
enjoy!

well then, i've posted all of the post that i promised 2 days ago.
so, do you love my pictures and the details after each photo?
YES, i hope sooooooo...

thanks to iMovie

actually, this is my very first slideshow video. i mean, i made it by myself yesterday when i was bored and really didnt have anything to do. i just knew that iMovie is a program to make a slideshow or editing videos.

the reason why do I still put the pictures of some girls that now isnt included into our 'group' again is:

without them, we will never through the really downs moments in our friendship. i mean like, we will never feel how does it feel we're lied by them, we're mad because of them and stuffs. so, i put them, to make we realize, we were going stronger because the problems. and i hope, we are strong enough to make this friendship lasts forever. so that, in the end of the slideshow, i put one of our silly moment inside. to make we remember, our friendship is full of joy besides the unexpected problems.

i always love VITAMIN C - Graduation (Friends Forever) since i was in grade ninth (yes! recently, i just realized the lyrics is really awesome), this song has became my very favorite song. the lyrics really describe about a friendship and high school moments. here is the lyric:

And so we talked all night about the rest of our lives
Where we're gonna be when we turn 25
I keep thinking times will never change
Keep on thinking things will always be the same
But when we leave this year we won't be coming back
No more hanging out cause we're on a different track
And if you got something that you need to say
You better say it right now cause you don't have another day
Cause we're moving on and we can't slow down
These memories are playing like a film without sound
And I keep thinking of that night in June
I didn't know much of love
But it came too soon
And there was me and you
And then we got real blue
Stay at home talking on the telephone
We'd get so excited, we'd get so scared
Laughing at ourselves thinking life's not fair
And this is how it feels

[1] - As we go on
We remember
All the times we
Had together
And as our lives change
Come Whatever
We will still be
Friends Forever

So if we get the big jobs
And we make the big money
When we look back now
Will our jokes still be funny?
Will we still remember everything we learned in school?
Still be trying to break every single rule
Will little brainy Bobby be the stockbroker man?
Will Heather find a job that won't interfere with her tan?
I keep, I keep thinking that it's not goodbye
Keep on thinking it's a time to fly
And this is how it feels

[Repeat 1]

La, la, la, la:
Yeah, yeah, yeah
La, la, la, la:
We will still be friends forever

Will we think about tomorrow like we think about now?
Can we survive it out there?
Can we make it somehow?
I guess I thought that this would never end
And suddenly it's like we're women and men
Will the past be a shadow that will follow us 'round?
Will these memories fade when I leave this town
I keep, I keep thinking that it's not goodbye
Keep on thinking it's a time to fly

[Repeat 1 (3x)]

and you know, i'm so missing my junior high school moment too, i still keep in touch with some of them, but the other? i missed them. :( i miss for every stupid moments we've been through. and it was so fun, yet i'm regret cause i deleted all the pictures. but, it was not a deliberate incident. really!

for me, either pictures or videos would make you remember every single little thing you had. that's why, i want to collect all of the pictures we've captured or at least some.
