I feel very desolate without my wife next to me. What if I play the piano with her? I wish she could have<br />
talked to me before she died. Why did she have to die?<br />
Suddenly something appeared next to me whilst I was playing, it was my wife as a ghost. She played the<br />
tune with me. Her soft lips leaning over to kiss me…I closed my eyes to remember but then you were<br />
gone.<br />
Loss…it reminded me about the war when my brother got shot! I felt like I was solitary. Why was it not me<br />
that got shot? Why was it him that had to die?<br />
Feeling of selfishness for letting him go out there. I play the piano again to try and take away the pain.<br />
Recalling happier times; my family, my childhood. The wooden horse, that I loved so dearly, now the<br />
favourite toy of my grandson. I feel the memories and they remind me of the good and bad times. My<br />
grandson comes and sits next to me at the piano and smiles as he plays the last note. Life goes on and our<br />
tune will continue.<br />

Easy Exams?<br />
By Oie<br />
Imagine how it would feel if you could<br />
change school rules to ones you like!<br />
How about taking home examinations? It<br />
would be great, wouldn’t it?<br />
Most students have their examinations at<br />
the school’s main hall and it is a fact that<br />
all the students need to take their exams<br />
at the school. However, would it be a<br />
good idea if the students will be taking<br />
their exams in the comfort of their dorm or<br />
home? But is taking a home exam really<br />
a blessing or is it a curse in disguise?<br />
A large number of students love the idea<br />
of taking their exam at home. It will take<br />
you feel more comfortable, relaxed and<br />
you will not fears about your exams. You<br />
will be given a plenty of time to complete<br />
your exams, edit your answers; a lot more<br />
time than you would have sitting in the<br />
main hall on exam day. It would be also a<br />
less mysterious and you do not need to<br />
spend hours studying in advance.<br />
However, one of the main arguments that<br />
some students from other schools might<br />
think in the bad way because it would not<br />
be fair that all the answers did not came<br />
into their own brains. The students who<br />
took the exams at home may get the<br />
qualification, but do they deserve to get<br />
it?<br />
In conclusion, it would be a good idea if<br />
you are taking your exams at home, but<br />
bear in mind, would it be an advantage<br />
for yourself in the future?
