"The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face"                                                                           

 The first time ever I saw your face face

I thought the sun rose in your eyes

And the moon and the stars were the gifts you gave

To the dark and the empty skies my love

The first time ever I kissed your mouth

I felt the earth move through my hand

Like the trembling heart of a captive bird

That was there at my command my love

The first time ever I lay with you

And felt your heart so close to mine

The first time ever I saw your face

" LE PETIT PRINCE " -- St-Exupéry

Here's one of my FAVORITE quotes from    

           Le Petit Prince (1943)

Voici mon secret ... Il est très simple: on ne voit rien qu'avec le cœur. L'essentiel est invisible pour les yeux.

Here is my secret. It is very simple. It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; What is essential is invisible to the eye.

• Variant translations: Here is my secret. It is very simple: one sees well only with the heart. The essential is invisible to the eyes.
• The essential things in life are seen not with the eyes, but with the heart.

You'll find it in Antoine de Saint-Exupéry's

most famous story of  "The Little Prince" ***

And it's all about what is important in life,

what is in your HEART and SOUL  

and in the hearts of all the ones you LOVE!

 Coulda Woulda Shoulda

from Céline Dion

Did you ever fall in love at the right time or place

Does it always have to move

At its own kind of pace

When you're driving on cruise control

Coming off a bumpy ride

And your heart is back in shape

Then it hits you with no chance to hide

But don't you miss out on the way

Don't find a reason to say

Coulda Woulda Shoulda

But I didn't do that

You gotta give it a shot

Dare to believe

And don't say you

Coulda Woulda Shoulda

But I didn't do that

Just throw in everything you've got

'Cause in love there's no holding back

You tell me that you play it safe 'cause you're afraid

To hurt your neck

On that rollercoaster trip

Never knowing what you'd get

But do you wanna be cynical

On a date with destiny

Giving up the greatest rush

Who knows what it turns out to be

No don't you miss out on the way

Don't find a reason to say

If it's meant to be

Don't think about it

Let love run free

Cause you're on your way

Follow your heart when it's calling on you

The LYRICS from this song are a good example of the use of these familiar informal contractions!!!

WORDS YOU SAY when: looking back, after reflexion, in hindsight**, when you are mad, frustrated, critisizing, after analysing a situation,.... 

**hindsight (n.)

 understanding of past events and actions after they have occurred 

WHY ENGLISH IS CRAZY ... CLICK here!

Why[ai]  Eng[ing]lish is crazy and not ph[f]onetic! 

Let's face it - English is a crazy language. There is no egg in eggplant, nor ham in hamburger; neither apple nor pine in pineapple. English muffins weren't invented in England nor French fries in France. Sweetmeats are candies while sweetbreads, which aren't sweet at all, are meat.

We take English for granted. But if we explore its paradoxes, 

we find that: 

- quicksand can work slowly, 

- boxing rings are square and 

- a guinea pig is neither from Guinea nor is it a pig, 

- writers write but fingers don't fing, and 

- grocers don't groce and hammers don't ham?

If the plural of tooth is teeth, why isn't the plural of booth, beeth?

GO FIGURE?!!!

I MISS SUMMER ... CLICK ON ME for a great SURPRISE!!!

I miss SUMMER!

The sounds of ...

The smells of ...

The sights of ...

The taste of ...

The touch of ...

You can have fun completing these sentences. 

Use your own words and maybe we can 

create  a collective POEM.

THE BEST LINE FROM 'AVATAR' ...and a SONG

I SEE YOU!         

I saw "Avatar" two weeks ago. 
This is what I wrote:

"Yes! the dialogue is 'corny'. Yes! The story has been told before. Yes! It cost a lot of money! Yes! Yes! Yessss! OPINIONS, please spare me! Here are my questions: Did I like it? Did I enjoy myself? Was I amazed? Yes! Yes! and YES !!! Treated my eyes this time, left the critic at home to watch TV! Feasted upon the visual, forgot the rest for a few hours! COOL! 
Just to add ...
I saw this movie with my friend, Louise.
The best part is when we turned around at some point in the movie and looked at all the people wearing the same 3D glasses ... It was really FUNNY! We had such a laugh!
