Jingle Be-e-e-e-e-lls

I think for the first time in my 3 year university career, I did not mind I missed my first train home after class because I had the best time ever. I was laughing, joking and having fun with some people I know from class. Well actually it started during class. No one was really paying attention, so we started chit chatting very softly so we would not bug anyone. Damn we talked about some very random stuff but yet it was funny as hell. Some subjects that passed the revue were Christmas trees, vacation plans, exams and loads of other things. I'm sure you may wonder how those subjects can possibly be funny, but believe me, we cracked it up. Then it hit me though. This little feeling coming from deep down inside that makes my mind travel through time and space to a place far away. Not really a place, but a person. I closed down a bit and sunk away in deep thoughts. Don't get me wrong, I like the direction my life is heading to. I got a great education and most of all, I have this wonderful person supporting, respecting and loving me to death. It feels so great to love someone who feels the same way for you as you feel for him. I found this song that matches my feelings right now. Does anyone know of you know the movie An Officer and A Gentleman? There is this song sung by Joe Cocker and I believe Jeniffer Warnes that is called Up Where We Belong. There has been a remake of this song by BeBe and CeCe Winans and I adore it. It goes like this:

Who knows what tomorrow brings
In a world, few hearts survive
All I know, is the way I feel
When it's real, I keep my pray alive

The road is long
There are mountains in our way
But we climb steps every day

Love lift us up where we belong
Where the eagles cry, on a mountain high
Love lift us up where we belong
Far from the world we know
Up where the clear winds blow

Sounds beautiful right? I have another one. Lean on Me, originally from Bill Withers I believe, or was it Al Green? Doesn't matter because the lyrics are great.

Sometimes in our lives we all have pain
We all have sorrow
But if we are wise
We know that there's always tomorrow

Lean on me, when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
'Til I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on

If there is a load you have to bear
That you can't carry
I'm right up the road
I'll share your load
If you just call me

When I was on the train home, I was staring outside and, because it was already dark, most people had lighted their Christmas decoration. Can't help it but when my car got stuck in traffic, I put on the good old "Jingle bells" song. Christmas is in the air and I adore it. When I got home, I took a quick shower and afterwards I jumped into the sofa with a cup of hot chocolate and my lappie, overlooking our mighty decorated tree with the hundreds of twinkling lights. I confess, it is a fake tree but you don't notice it that much because it is fully loaded. Only it smells like plastic instead of nature. On the other hand, it doesn't drop its needles so that means less cleaning! So looking at the pro and contra indications, plastic is perfectly fine!

I still have one week left to fake this mysterious illness so I can skip Christmas at my grandma. Black pudding ewwww! Flu would be too obvious and would also mean I can't eat muffins for some days otherwise they will notice I faked. Migraine ain't possible neither because I barely have head aches unless I have not slept for days. What else can I fake? I so need to find something otherwise the delicious, cough, black pudding will put an end to my young life before it even started! Whoever invented that food, if it can be categorized as food, must have had the most horrible taste ever. No disrespect to anyone who likes black pudding, but it tastes really pukey (invented a new word just now).

Should be going to bed soon because again, our professor has a meeting at 11h and he is going to start earlier tomorrow. It is really unfair! HE has a meeting during his college hours and WE have to get our asses up earlier. Un-un-unfair!

Nite nite Lolu, you know you are my gurl! Nite nite all my other readers, you guys are great. Happy 60th anniversary UN Declaration of Human Rights! May your next anniversary bring improvement so your words won't only remain words but also hard actions to fight injustice.
