1 John 4:10-12, 16b

This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins. Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us.
God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in him.

Philippians 4:8

Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy— think about such things.

happy Remembrance Day?

i cannot believe my four-day Remembrance day weekend is almost over

________________________________________________________

anyways, Oilers won last night
7-6-1
muahahaha...we managed not to die against NYR
and Hemmer's shootout goal just made me laugh

but again...Gagner did not register a goal or more than 3 points on this road trip. meaning i am saying goodbye to his picture in my locker. i dunno...i'm debating whether to put up Kyle Turris or Patrick Kane next.

i'm hoping gagner is just going through the sophomore jinx. cuz he actually didn't play that badly last night. He was doing all the right things, with minimal giveaways and mistakes. if he keeps that up, i'm sure pucks will start going in the net for him. eventually.

but YAYS FOR HEMSKY

I got my hair cut on saturday

i am very depressed

the hairdresser cut off like 2 inches. on someone who stands at only 5ft 2, 2 inches is a huge deal.

now my hair is short. and ugly.

i am going to be eating a lot of those chinese foods that make hair grow faster

but yes, (happy?) Remembrance Day

actually, it was kind of scary

the number of students from OSA that died fighting in WWII number more than my entire grade. so it would be like the entire grade 12 population just never came back

that would be so scary. especially because i would be one of the students not coming back.

In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved, and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.
— Lt.-Col. John McCrae
