Today was a mixed day of sorts. It was a continuation of yesterday. About a week ago I had a misunderstanding with a long time friend and although the friend has since forgiven me( i think) the friendship is still a little strained. It upset me a lot thinking about it as I was afraid it is yet another one of the many close friendships I have that may end. And at my age you dont make many good friends easily. So you keep the old ones although u have drifted apart or your wavelength has changed. When a disagreement happens and you try to be honest about your feelings you only succeed in hurting another's feelings. Yet you can't bring yourself to apologize coz you feel that it is right to express that you are upset and why. So at this moment that friendship is on the line.
What happened today though helped me have faith again in friends again. Was thinking of another friend today and really wanted to talk to her but my laptop was down so couldnt go online. Just now I just got online and who do I see? its Her. And talking to her has really made me feel so much better.
A few days ago in class I was doing a passage on lilliput and my class was very lost until I read out the story to them. One kid asked if there were really little people like that. So cute. Anyway I was a little shocked to find out only one kid had heard of Gulliver's travels. I was thinking of showing them this series I had seen on TV with Ted Danson which I thought was real real good - but where do I get it ? its not even a movie.
Today I had gone to Carrefour to do my weekly marketing and just decided to chk out the dvd shop above for latest movies. Guess what was the first dvd I saw on their rack? Gulliver's Travels! I had forgotten all about it until I saw it. So now my class will get to see it. We are doing the topic on fantasy stories right now and they are supposed to act out a drama based on the story. Ooh they are so excited about it and the story outline they came out with is quite good. So i shall wait for their dramas next.
