I love my flute :D (and air. and am tired. ><)

I don't really see the point of highlighting, actually. One highlights, I suppose, to make a sentence stand out, as it's the sole important point of the whole essay. Which really, makes no sense. It's like eating only the tamago in the tamago sushi. (I like tamago sushi.) Like how you can't really say everything is light, because darkness has to exist for you to use the word light in the first place.

Ohoh (this is, once again, Excessive Thinking (which has, on another note, been discovered to not work out that well in the end) ) you know how in story books and movies and Inspirational Tales and chatter and essays, it's always beginning-risingaction-climax-settlingdown-happyending? Well, being the very-lucky-born-in-Singapore-to-not-poor-parents-receiving-quality-education-has-computers-and-internet-access us, we don't really have much of a risingaction-climax thing. The greatest challenge we face is trying to keep up with homework, or meeting expectations. Which really, compared to fighting-for-your-basic-human-rights, is .. heh. pthh. (You can highlight this part! -) Does not having that mean that we won't have the happyending? (-endhighlight) Or just that we won't have the overcame-challenges-happyending, just the led-a-good-peaceful-life-happyending. I've never heard of the latter, actually, or is it just so common (hopefully?) or boring (gah) that no one talks about it? Or, maybe the challenges we meet are actually as hard (for us?) to climb over. (I wonder who actually met the self-actualization triangle is Maslow's hierachy.) Or, maybe our challenge is getting over the lack of a big one ><

I am now happy. Because my long silver sound-reveberating cylinder. I realized that if you pick up your instrument a lot, you'll find yourself picking it up more. (Because you sound prettier/boomier/articulate and want to sound even more like that.) Of course, it works in reverse as well. :D

Actually, there was a sentence that I once wanted to highlight in our SS readings. Thomas Moore, "be contented with so much liberty against other men, as he would allow other men against himself." Because it made sense. But I couldn't find my highlighter.
