The Beauty of Music

As all of you know, I am an average teen.. 

And for a teenager, music plays a big role in my life...

I am 1 of those teens who go 'gaga' over The Jonas Brothers, Taylor Swift and Miley Cyrus... 

I can never get tired of their music... (esp, Taylor Swift's latest single 'Fifteen')

I know of a question that always run at the back of my parents minds...

What do we, teens, see in young singers that totally attracts us to their music?? 

Well, if I had to answer that, I would say that The meaning to their music is just wonderful.. 

Example, Taylor Swift:

1)Teardrops on My guitar talks about the pain that is felt by teens when their ultimate crush refers to another girl when she herself has a massive crush on him...  Believe me, been there, done that!!!

2)Love Story refers  to the feeling that overcomes a teen when parents get in the way of a pair of lovers... and it is also a typiccal love story to most of us...

3)Fifteen refers to her regrets as a teen when she accepted a love request by an elder boy only at the mere age of fifteen...

Now, tell me,

   -which girl hasn't ever gotten a crush on a totally cute guy???

   -a girl that has never liked a guy that liked someone else??

   -and a girl that is stuck between love and life at a young age??

If you were an ordinary girl, this would be a normal thing to go through..

So young girls like myself, find wonderful meaning and guidance from this songs...

Besides, this songs aren't teaching us wrong values...

They are just explaining life to pre-teens and teens...

This also plays a huge factor in Taylor Swift's and other musician's success... 

So, toodle's from me and have a wonderful night...

The Top 10 Reasons the World is Against A Left Handed Person...

Well based on research and my own experiences, these are the 20 top things to regret being a lefty...

1)     Sitting beside the less gifted, right handed person, at a dinner table. You know what it's like           to sit next to a lefty at a table, now just imagine always having to be bothered by that.

2)     Those desks in schools, with the slab of wood sticking off of the right side so people can                    "comfortably" right on it. How often do you see ones with the slab of wood on the left                        side?

3)     Note books. Try writing with your left hand on a spiral or 3-ring notebook. Those 3 rings or          spiral metal things kind of interfere with your writing.     

4)     CD cases. The first time a lefty tries to open up a CD case, they totally get confused.

5)     Making "Normal" Check Marks. Check Marks were created by some righty because a left              just can't scratch down a "normal" check mark like right handed people can. Try it and see            for yourself.

6)    Potato Peelers. We just can't use them.

7)     Scissors. It's impossible to use "normal" scissors when you are left handed. The paper just              won't cut. 

8)     Rulers. We think differently, so when a lefty goes to use a ruler the numbers seem to go the          wrong way on a "regular" ruler.

9)     Driving a manual (stick) vehicle. It would be so much easier for the left handed person if                the stick was on the left side.

10)    Boomerangs. There's just no way a "regular" boomerang will return to a person throwing               with their left hand, it's impossible.   

Well, there's more, so if you want more information on this:

Unity for All!!!

Hi readers...

Yes, we meet again in yet another episode of Teenager @ Work!!!

My topic for today is UNITY...

Let us see what does Unity exactly mean...

Well based on the famous online dictionary, Wikipedia, 

Unity carries the meaning of 'unitas' oneness, sameness, agreement from unus 'one'. Unity is

defined as the state of being undivided or unbroken completeness or totality with nothing wanted in return.

Before I go into detail of Unity.. Let me share an event that I had personally witnessed...

The Black Eyed Peas performed a special live version of 'I Gotta Feeling' for Oprah Winfrey, while a flash mob of synchronized dancers grooved on Michigan Avenue downtown Chicago, IL USA. The performance was at Oprah's 24th Season Kickoff Party on September 8, 2009.

The part that I enjoyed the most was when all the dancers, approximately 20,000 people, turned back and put their hands on a complete stranger's back while dancing to the beat...

Well, the value that I can conclude from this behavior, is that the unity that they show to eachother, without looking at their etnic backgrounds... All of them seem trust eachother without complaining...

Now, let us all take a moment to think of such behaviour if it was practiced in our daily activities...

Do all of you personally think that this behaviour has encouraged all the havoc surrounding us?

A few months ago, my Sivic teacher, Puan Riza said that, she has given upreading the newspaper.. Well, as a curious student, I asked her the reason for such a move..

She said that, she can't stand to read the newspaper anymore.. there are hardly any good news to be heard... Most of them are all murders, rapings, snatch-thieves... People are losing their lifes very easily nowadays... this is what regrets me most...

How can I, live in peace without the thought that millons of people are losing lives everyday...

     - An estimated number of 5.2 millon people are dying in South Africa alone are dying due to            AIDS each year...

     - Every day, almost 16,000 children die from hunger related causes - one child every five                 seconds.

How can we reduce all this high numbers if we don't unite now?

As we all know, the Malaysian government has introduced the concept of 1Malaysia and has also announced that 16th September of every year as 1Malaysia Day...

I think that this a good step to start a better world... Well, I don't intend to share my political views in my blog, so lets move on...

I wouldn't want my children and grandchildren living in a world  that is too dangerous, to even be scared to walk out of our house.

My parents find it difficult to allow me to even play badminton right infront of my own house.. They don't even allow me to shop around with my group of friends at a nearby shopping mall without the thought of 'it could me the last time they see me' haunting them constantly...

I want a world that I can trust to keep us all safe from harm, for my future generations...

I urge all people from all walks of life, to stop destruction and give hope to the innocent victims of tragedy to continue their life without worry... 

That's all I can say for this episode, signing off from Teenager @ Work!!!, I'm Gayathri, good night and have a wonderful evening...

and please feel free to post a comment...(all comments will be taken into consideration)

 

Team Edward or Team Jacob?

My holz has not been anything near interesting...

As i'm sure you all know that half the world has gone heads over heels over

Twilight Saga: New Moon...

Well bad news...

So am I!!!

And another fact...

Taylor Lautner is causing a huge commotion in our lives..

An example?

My friends and I are like practically fighting to prove that 'Team Jacob' is soooooooooooooooooo much better than 'Team Edward'..

And me, being my usual self, was Facebook-ing...
and guess what I found??????

Groups named:

1)' Lets See If We Can Find 200,000 Ppl Who Agree Edward Cullen Looks Retarded '
2)I Love Taylor Lautner.........

So, without hesitating, I joined both groups...( like duhh......)

To my disbelief...

There were already more than 170,000 people in both groups...

And that proves IT!!!! 

     1) Edward Cullen a.k.a. Robert Pattinson is retarded!

                                                     and

     2) Everyone LOVES Taylor Lautner!!!

If any one disagrees 'may you forever hold your peace'... ;p

Our Friendship....

As I think of our friendship, I begin to see
Mere words can't describe what you mean to me.
When this cold, hard world has me lonesome and blue
I look up to see my angel, my sweet angel, you.

You dry the tears that fall from my eyes.
You bring me sunshine to brighten my sky.
You rescue me when I'm scared and alone
And take my hand to lead me home.

No matter the miles that keep us apart
We're always together in each other's hearts
Sometimes we take for granted, I fear,
The ones who are so close and dear.

We get so caught up in life and things we must do
Sometimes we forget to stop and say I love you.
If ever you felt I forgot or didn't care
Let me stop right now, my true feelings I'll share.

You're the sun in my sky, the bed where I lie.
You're the home where I'm safe, the field where I play.
You're everything I am, everything I do.
So what I am saying is You are my Best Friend...

A Secret Admirer...

I've never been the type to say what I feel
So basically I keep everything inside
And with you it was no different
I want to tell you, believe me I've tried

But there's part of me that just can't take that chance
So I doubt that you'll ever know
Which may be fine with you, but it's hurting me
I choose not to show it though

I guess I'm your secret admirer
That name seems to fit just right
I don't know what I like about you
But you're on my mind, day and night

Maybe it's the way you look
So sexy I can't get enough
Or how you make me feel when you come around
I instantly forget all other stuff

Maybe it's the way you say my name
Or maybe it's the way you smile
Then again it might just be everything
Getting to know you seems worth my while

But I guess I'll never know what it is
My true feelings I could never reveal to you
I'll just admire you from a distance
I'm not sure what else there is to do

God's Plan For Life...

When I think of my past
Nothing can compare
With how my life turned out now

You’ve taught me the freedom of love
Given me a reason to go on and live
You’ve loved me because I am who I am

The doubts I once had have long gone away
Allowing love to blossom in their place
Into something that is spiritual, even divine

God has brought us together
And I’m so glad that you’re mine
And better yet I am yours

In my heart, it is a heavenly plan
For us to spend life together
No matter where it may lead

For God has stepped into our lives

He is the one who knows best....

Blessing our lives as we know it
