Successful People..

Successful People

Are people that accomplish what no other can in a day;

they are what make this world go round. They are

entrepreneurs that are not afraid of taking risks. They are

the people that everyone wants to be.

They work hard, and through determination become

what they desire. They stay up all night, either

from a small child preparing for a spelling test or

an adult working on his company that involves

thousands of emloyees. They stand up for what

they believe in, even if the world is against them.

Even when superior, they act humble. They never

Procrastinate, but rather do what

needs to be done first. Usaully when

people have free time they do nothing

but couch potato, but successful ones

always find something to do. When

they make a choice they think of the

possible consequences, and how they can adapt with them

incase anything should go wrong. Successful people know

that every problem has a solution, so they never give up.

It is also believed that successful people have no social

life at all, because they spend all their time working.

Basically successful indivisuals have trouble choosing having

quality time with their families or working, thus being in

a dilemma. Still I would rather forget about relatives and

friends for the time being, as I will have all the time to

be with them when I retire, this is how successful people

think. Successful people make sacrifices that in the future

will help them. It doesn’t matter where an indivisual grows

up or what famiy he/she decends from, as long as he/she

works hard , then they will succeed. Successful people are

always organised, either from their houses or to their files.

They don’t take ’no’ for an answer, they try to persuade

the invisiual and always get along with others, to get what

they are after.

In conclusion, Successful indivisuals have the respect of

all their colleagues. I wish that one day through my hard

work and perseverance I would become the successful man

my parents wanted me to grow up to be. I’m sure that with

fortitude and persistence a person can become anything he/

she wishes to be.`

Mrs.Shapiro....

Woke up after 30 years of sleep
Annie Shapiro, a 79 years old granny who feel a sleep into a coma
at age of 50 in 1963.
(when I went to sleep, I was darn good looking woman, but in the
mirror, all I see is an old lady with bags around her eyes, wrinkles
and grey hair) as she said, she could not believe that her husband
Martin is 81 years old as she left him at the age of 0 and her 25
years old daughter is a 55 years old woman and a mom of 2 kids
and her 16 years old son is a father of 2 kids to.
Mrs. Shapiro was watching the news reports on the assassination of
the US president John F.kennedy on her black and white TV when
she suffered a massive stroke, for the next years she stayed
paralyzed with her eyes wide open, so her husband had to put drops
in her eyes every few hours to keep them from drying out.
Years passed, her brother and sisters died along with most of her
friends, the Vietnam War ended, astronaut Neil Armstrong walked
on the moon and the world entered the computer and cell phones
age.
I was lying beside her bed, said her husband, (when she sat up and
said: turn on the TV, I want to watch I love Lucy show) it was like a
dead person come to life “as he commented.
Mrs. Shapiro got her first shock when she looked on the colored TV
then she asked her husband (who was 30 years elder than what she
expected) to call her son as she kept him outside the house for
crashing the family car 30 years ago, when she realized he is a
father, after moths she started getting the new world with wireless
phones and colored TVs.
The most romantic part is there renewed love as he said” when I
made my marriage vows and promised to stay together in sickness
and health, I meant it.
Sadly her husband died after 3 years and she lived alone for extra 2
years before she die at the age of 85 in 1998.

Red, Black and Green.

Red, Black and Green.


I'm in the crowd wondering how long it'll  take to hear that word...That word, we all longed to
hear, just that one word we all longed to have.

The colour of freedom: Red , Black, and Green. Those colours that were hidden from Libyans
everywhere from the greed of one man. That greed that will soon lead to his destruction.
Libya's potential that was hidden by that greed, the greed of money and power against the
people's lives and rights. The greed that killed many during his so called "revolution" and after
all the Libyans joined together and started Libya's true revolution. The revolution that we all
waited for, that we all prayed everyday for. Little did he know that Libyans will and prayers are
stronger than his weapons and greed..

The images we saw of the brave martyrs who lost their lives for their country, those martyrs
who will never be forgotten. The sights of the people's suffering, the destruction caused ,and
how people's lives were literally moving before them. People who lost their lives for that one
word, the word with never ending meanings to all of us. Just that one word: Freedom.
Freedom stands for something greater than just the right to act however I choose—it also
stands for securing to everyone an equal opportunity for life, liberty, and the pursuit of
happiness. Freedom is the word we all hadn't heard in a while, Freedom is the word we all
wanted and longed to have.

So now when I'm asked about Libya and freedom, I simply reply
saying: Libya's Freedom can simply be put in these three simple words:
Red, Black and Green.
Those colours that are now fluttering everywhere, that are put up high, my favourite colours.
In conclusion i will say raise your head up high, you're a free Libyan.

My new school...

International School of Martyrs

     
     My name is Osama, I am 15 years old . It is my first year in High School, I moved to a new 
school called ISM .My first day was hard because I dont have any friends to speak with, I felt 
alone and bored .
 My first class was English , the teacher was nice . There were many students in the class most of
 them were boys. I made new friends from different ages and differnt grades.
The school was very big compared to my old one,it has gymnasium, gardens and a huge feild.

     Because of the unfortunate events that Libya had witnessed,most of the school teachers left the 
country.So the school had to bring substitute teachers. the new teathers were good but not as good as   
the previous ones .Because we had started late the school had to change the semester, instead of 
having 3 terms ,we will have  2 terms this year.
This year every thing changed ,the syllabuse became  harder, so i had to study harder .I took a new
subject this year which is buisness , I found it little hard but i will try my best to understand it.

     My friends were nice to me ,we had alot of fun playing football,bascketball and table tenis,they 
helped me with my studies.I respect them and they respect me too we are like brothers.
The problem was that there is no cafeteria in the school.
The best thing was that you dont need to buy books ,they just give it to you and then you return them 
back by the end of the year , I also liked the way how the sports teacher trains us.
So these are my opinions of my new school and i hope you like it.

                                      Cristiano Ronaldo   

Full Name: Cristiano Ronaldo dos Santos Aveiro
Birth date: February 5th, 1985
Birthplace: Funchal, Madeira - Portugal
Height: 186 cm (1m 86cm)
Field position: Left/right winger, striker/forward                    
Current club: Real Madrid (since 2009)
International team: Portugal
Nicknames: CR7, CR9



Cristiano Ronaldo is one of  the best players in the world ,
He is the son of Maria Dolores dos Santos Aveiro (a cooker) and José Dinis Aveiro (a Municipal gardener).
The young kid from Madeira never was a good student in his childhood , he didn't like to study and he was always running away from school ,but the only time he really worked hard was during meals when he and his friends used to play football all the time. Cristiano Ronaldo played on Sporting Lisbon as a youth. In September of 2002, the kid from Madeira Island started his professional career on the Sporting Lisbon pro club team, when he was only 17 years.

In 2003 Ronaldo signed a contract with Manchester United 
where he made United’s fans quickly forget David Beckham and he adapt quickly with the team . After a not so brilliant start, Ronaldo started little by little to honor the number 7. He scored goal number 1000 in Premiership for Manchester United in 2005. In 2006, he scored in the Carling Cup Final and helped to win the trophy. Cristiano Ronaldo was the "key" for the Manchester United’s championship after four years and finishing Chelsea’s dynasty. Besides, he took the United to the semis of UEFA Champions League, when a painful loss to Milan ended the dream of the third title of the League. 


In 2009, Cristiano Ronaldo broke another record by becoming the World's most expensive football player, after transfering from Manchester United to Real Madrid in July 2009, in a £80 million pounds transfer . That was an historic moment, and more than 80 000 fans received and welcomed Cristiano Ronaldo in the Santiago Bernabéu stadium .


In the 2010-2011 season, Cristiano Ronaldo had an outstanding personal performance, breaking several all-time records, not only in Real Madrid, but also in the Spanish League. Ronaldo scored 41 goals in La Liga, breaking the previous 38 goal record set by Hugo Sanchez and Telmo Zarra. CR7 scored a total of 54 goals and once again, won the Golden Boot award, beating Lionel Messi in the way, who finished the season with 53 goals. However, not everything was perfect, since Real Madrid only won the Copa del Rey and failed to conquer the Spanish League and the UEFA Champions League.

And I hope he can do better in 2011 - 2012  
 

The Sopranos......

One thing that has been on my mind a lot lately is The Sopranos, for those of you who don't know what the Sopranos is, it's a TV which many critics regard as the greatest TV show of all time, they haven't stepped a  foot wrong there, I assure you. I have just downloaded all 6 seasons, and I am hooked, fish, line and sinker.

Well first let me start of by saying The Sopranos isn't really for the young, it's a deep, perplexing complex drama on the mafia, to understand it you have to read between the lines, no show has depicted the relationship with the mafia and family as well as this show. So, many people recommend the show to mature audiences. Ideally over the 16 mark. So in a nutshell what is The Sopranos? Pay attention and you'll find out.

The Sopranos which ran from 1999-2007, written  by David Chase revolves around the continuous plot on how Mob boss Tony Soprano deals with the aspect of family and mobster life, currently I am on Season 4 and I have to say it's the greatest TV Show out there. I noticed in the first seasons his children appear oblivious to the fact of who there father's occupation is, he regularly states he is in the 'Waste Management' business. He has two children, AJ short for Anthong Juniour, and a daughter called Meadow. As his daughter matures and starts to attend university she realizes who her father really is, but to my surprise, it was subtle but it was there, it's like she already knew of her father's doings. Her relationship with her mother, Tony's wife, is a very close- knit one.

The Sopranos family.

From left to right : Meadow Soprano, Anthony Soprano, Carmela Soprano, and AJ Soprano.

One major plotline around this series is the fact that Tony has a psychiatrist, since he started getting blackouts, this psychiatrist is a fundamental part of the show, and it's rare that she doesn't feature on a regular basis. When his wife mentioned he need's a psychiatrist he refuses whole heartidly, saying that a man of his stature going to a shrink would cause shame and contempt from other familes, he would embarass himself if other's knew about, so he decided to take his wife's advice and attend secretly. The psychiatrist of course knowing his occupation, enjoy's the thrills. They talk about it in off beat ways, he continues to talk about the Waste Managment business, and how he 'lost' a dear friend of his, this shows how he is protective of his status in new Jersey, he is feared among the parts, and people have great respect for him. As the show progresses, he starts to trust the Psychiatrist more, even telling her about who he is going to '' send to witness protection''. The show can be very sad and disturbing at times, so I will say again, it's not for the young and certainly not for the faint hearted. And kudos to the creater David Chase for this genius he has created.

So the show is the best, it's as simple as that, nothing comes close to it. So I'm off now, don't want to waste time, I've got some Sopranos to watch.

A memorable day !

This is a memorable day in this picture which presents the day when Gaddafi died 20/10/2011.We were at school ;no one ever expected that is the day will Gaddafi would be caught and would die .That day  was one of my best days which surprised every single Libyan .

No one believed it at  first .Thank God he’s gone now and we are officially  free from that criminal , I hope all Libyans appreciate what El Thuwar have done to us. They gave their lives just to let us live in freedom.

 This is one big thing and may God have mercy on our martyrs.

People are still arguing about Gaddafi  , they still can’t believe all the things done to us . I Just want to know why some are still fighting for him ..He’s gone to *HELL* I hope. 


And they are still making problems , didnt they have enough of his evil ways ? He has done enough for he killed many of the Libyan people . ...


Well I guess we can now expect anything from him even if he died. His crimes are still coming up every day , when I look all to this i say “Have we gone through all this?”.

I hope Libya will improve and get much better soon as we have gone through tough days.. 

Thank You For Reading ! J
