remember me when i am gone away,        gone far away into the silent land;         when you can no more hold me by the hand,nor i half turn to go, yet turning stay.remember me when no more day by day        you tell me of our future that you plann'd:         only remember me; you understandit will be late to counsel then or pray.yet if you should forget me for a while        and afterwards remember, do not grieve:         for if the darkness and corruption leave        a vestige of the thoughts that once i had,better by far you should forget and smile        than that you should remember and be sad.

westlife  -  you raise me up

when i am down and, oh my soul, so weary; when troubles come and my heart burdened be; then, i am still and wait here in the silence,until you come and sit awhile with me.you raise me up, so i can stand on mountains; you raise me up, to walk on stormy seas; i am strong, when i am on your shoulders; you raise me up… to more than i can be.there is no life – no life without its hunger; each restless heart beats so imperfectly; but when you come and i am filled with wonder,sometimes, i think i glimpse eternity.

my  friend and i went to the superquiz. the tree monsters went to the  superquiz too. we answered some  questions ! we  were very happy. hooray!

to have a pet at home is a very good thing. and it is not important what pet you have. you may have a dog, a cat, a hamster, a parrot or a fish. the most popular pets are cats and dogs.

a cat is good for a small flat, and if you live in a big flat or a house you can keep a dog. it’s much simpler to have a cat because you don’t have to walk a cat every day.

dogs are best friends of people. these animals are very clever and understand you very well. but you must remember that keeping a dog in a flat is not that easy. you need to walk it two or three times a day. so, you have to get up earlier in the morning and it also takes time to feed the dog. dogs are hairy animals and they have a specific smell. nevertheless, dogs are wonderful animals. i love dogs.

people usually keep hamsters, rats, mice and rabbits. these animals are rather easy to look after. these animals are funny, but all they do is eating.
