~~TRUE LOVE~~
Most people don’t understand the meaning of TRUE LOVE. TRUE LOVE is one hundred percent dedication and commitment of the couple. It’s so difficult to get the true meaning of love, because love requires loyalty, trust, effort, security, dependability, emotions, dreams, and aspirations.
I think TRUE LOVE is about loving one another for all the good and the bad of each partner, so it wouldn’t be easy to break up because of disagreement. And what you must remember is: love is not about physical beauty, social background, or sensuality! If you want to seek your true love, you must be ready to feel the pain of rejection from the one you love, and ready to sacrifice in order to maintain the relationship with your partner. These are the basic concepts of love that you should remember:
- One love, one life.
- Love takes time to grow and ripen
- Respect your partner’s background
- Understand the commitment between you and your partner
- Be fair to each other
- Difficulties that you have are actually to strengthen your love.
There are a few tips for you. I hope these tips can help you improve or maintain the relationship between your partner and you.
- Be strong to take the consequences of love; don’t blame your partner because of this.
- Be loveable ( the willingness to adjust yourself in order to make someone feel comfortable with you )
- Be trustworthy.
- Be ready to learn new things about life and love.
- Be ready to face the unexpected conditions
- Don’t be too possessive!
- Try to avoid misunderstandings.
So it’s not as easy as we think, is it? Don’t give up, keep trying, guys!!!!

WELCOME : story A LOVE OF A MOTHER (Rachel 9C)
Once upon a time, a little girl named Alice invited her classmates to play at her house. When her friend arrived at her home, all her family were not at home. She took them all to her room, so they can play there. “I’m hungry, is there anything I can eat?” said one of her friends after playing for awhile, “Yes, I’m hungry too!” said the other friend as well. “ Okay, I’ll bring some food from the kitchen,” said Alice while opening the door. When Alice was searching for food in the kitchen, she found a biscuit box that looked expensive. “Wow, look at this! This is an expensive one! I guess mom bought this for us in case we get hungry. Oh, how kind she is!” she said happily while taking the biscuit to her friend. “Wow, isn’t that expensive?” said her friend. “Yeah! Is it okay if we eat it?” asked the other. “ Of course it is okay! After all, my mother bought it for us!” said Alice confidently. After they ate all the biscuits and played, they went home.
At noon, all her families already came home. Alice wanted to thank her mother for the biscuit. She went to the kitchen. But, she saw her mother was searching for something. “Is there something wrong, Mom?” Alice asked. “Ah, Alice, did you see a box of biscuit here? I was about to give it to our new neighbor, but now it’s missing.” When Alice heard that, she felt like a thunder attacked her. She already ate them all… “I’m afraid I don’t know about any biscuits, I will go study then” said Alice lying to her mother and went upstairs.
“What should I do? I don’t have money to replace it!” she said to herslef. Then she saw her sister’s piggy bank. She took it and broke it. It had much money in it. “This should be enough to buy the same biscuits, Sis, don’t worry, I’ll make up for it later. I should buy the biscuits tomorrow.” said Alice while grabbing the money tightly.
The next day….. “Mom, I’m going to school, bye!” said Alice. But, she didn’t go to school. Yes, surely she went to the bakery where her mother bought the biscuits. When she arrived at the bakery she ordered the same biscuit box and paid it with her sister’s saving. When she took the biscuit, her mother came. “Alice! What are you doing at here?! You’re supposed to be at school now! And why did you buy that biscuit?” her mother’s questioning her. “Oh, Mom I…I am …”. “Whose money you used to buy the biscuits?” Her mother got absolutely angry. “Okay, you’re coming home with me!”. Alice cried.
Then they arrived at home. “Explain yourself!” said her mother. “I… I thought that biscuit was for us…so… I ate them. Then, I… wanted to replace it… but I didn’t have any money… so…” Alice was talking while crying. “So you stole your sister’s saving, right? Your sister said it to me yesterday.” Her mother gazed at her. “Huaaaaa! I’m sorry! I won’t do that again!” Alice kept crying. “Hah… Idiot! If you had just said sorry to what you’d done , I wouldn’t have got this mad…”said her mother, but then gave her a hug. A hug of a nice and wise mother, full of forgiveness. “It was painful, right? When you do something wrong and lie, you will need to make another lie to hide it.” . “Hua, I’m sorry! I won’t do that again!” said Alice, begged for forgiveness. “That’s my daughter! It’s okay… mother has already forgiven you.” said her mother, then smiling to Alice, with a gain…..a lovely hug around Alice’s head.
After that, Alice had to apologize and made up for her sister’s money. She promised to herself not to lie anymore, to anyone…

(Christha 9A, Monicque 9B, Olivia 9B)
At Saint Claus University , at North Pinguin street 0071/2, there was a test WBSC (Wanna Be Saint Claus) that was very well-known. The best graduated student would replace the Saint Claus xxxvi
There was a man that wanted to be a Saint Claus, but it seemed that he wasn’t the right person for that. His name is Saint Tom Crauise (TC). He got F in all subjects, afraid of deer, skinny, and many more.
One of the tests from WBSC was passing the MI3 (Mission Impossible 3). The Saint Claus candidates had to visit remote places to give appropriate Christmas gifts for the kids there. TC was sent to Nim’s Island .
But on his trip….
TC: “Oh my God! It’s rainy, no transportation, and wet. Phew…, fortunately…. my cart type is ‘Let’s Get the Beat’. My love is music, music colors my life. So I can come to the Island soon. Hohohoho…..Let’s go!
He got very excited and did not realize that he had lost one of the presents on his trip.
TC: “Saint Clause is coming to the island!..Saint Clause is coming to the island..tut tu tut …turut…Yeah…, at least…..only one house left…. If I finish this mission, I will have Kids Choice Awards trophy. Hohohoho…But …heyyyy…where is the last gift?…..I can’t find it here! Oh no….”
Suddenly, TC heard a little boy crying. The voice was from the last house that had not got the Christmas gift
TC: “Why are you crying?”
LB: “I heard bad news, my father can’t go home because his plane got broken at Quantum of Solace airport.”
TC: “If you haven’t got any gift, will you be as sad as this time?”
LB: “Of course not, I won’t. For me….my father is the nicest gift in the world.”
Suddenly, a bright idea got into TC’s head.
TC: “Really? I’ve got to go now. Wait for your Christmas gift here. Merry Christmas.”
So, TC got the true meaning of Christmas. He did not care about the gift anymore--those common gifts. There was something which was very special, the most special gift, indeed, for Christmas. So, he went to Quantum of Solace quickly and helped the engineer to repair the plane. Then, he went back to his house in North Pole happily because he had done something which was very important to help the little boy. However, he got a little bit disappointed because he was not able to complete the MI3 mission.
Soon, the result of the WBSC test was announced.
Headmaster: “Congratulation, TC! You have finished the test well. We sent a spy to watch all of the test participants, and TC was proved successful in performing good attitude and integrity. Now, he is the Saint Claus xxxvii.”
.
>NO MATTER WHAT YOU DO THERE WILL BE CRITICS
>AS LONG AS THERE ARE TESTS, THERE WILL BE PRAYERS IN SCHOOLS…(LOL)
In our previous edition, we discussed “adjectives” and how to use them in describing something. Now….try to find more adjectives in all written materials here, and pay attention to how they are used in any expressions. Remember, most of them will be used in these constructions:
- Noun phrase, e.g.: Interesting story
(adj) (N)
- S + to be + adjective
e.g .It is interesting
It was interesting
- S + (to) get/become/feel + adjective
e.g.She got angry
- S + (to) make + O + adjective
e.g. She will make you happy
