You that, like a dagger’s thrust, Have entered my complaining heart, You that, stronger than a host Of demons, came, wild yet prepared; Within my mind’s humility You made your bed and your domain; - Infamous one who’s bound to me Like any felon by his chain, Like a gambler by his games, Like the bottle and the sot, Like the worms in one’s remains, - Damm you! Damnation be your lot! I’ve begged the merciful, swift sword To overcome my liberty - To poison I have said the word: Save me from poltroonery. Alas the sword! Alas the poison! Contemptuous, they spoke to m: "You never can deserve remission Of your accursed slavery, "Imbecile! - If our deadly empire Freed you from your present fate, Your kiss would soon resuscitate The cold cadaver of your vampire!" Here the original French Le Vampire Toi qui, comme un coup de couteau, Dans mon coeur plaintif es entrée; Toi qui, forte comme un troupeau De démons, vins, folle et parée, De mon esprit humilié Faire ton lit et ton domaine; — Infâme à qui je suis lié Comme le forçat à la chaîne, Comme au jeu le joueur têtu, Comme à la bouteille l'ivrogne, Comme aux vermines la charogne — Maudite, maudite sois-tu! J'ai prié le glaive rapide De conquérir ma liberté, Et j'ai dit au poison perfide De secourir ma lâcheté. Hélas! le poison et le glaive M'ont pris en dédain et m'ont dit: «Tu n'es pas digne qu'on t'enlève À ton esclavage maudit, Imbécile! — de son empire Si nos efforts te délivraient, Tes baisers ressusciteraient Le cadavre de ton vampire!»

Teru & Nela! :D

This is my favourite picture.

Last year, a friends organized an Anime Festival, called "Anime & Horror Festival".
 There was a contest, "Miss Gothic Lolita", and Denisse, my sister, wanted to participate. She began to search clothes and accesories, and she began to play bass, because participants had to make a show.

That day, we were very nervous. In the Festival, we encountered a friends and our two best friends, Shui and Nicole. Nicole took this photo with my sister.
Arrived my friend, and later, began the presentation.

My sister was the first, she was so nervous! Her show was very amazing :)
Shui participated too. She sang a japanese song and she was amazing too :)
At the end, they didn't win :( But we had a nice day! :D

Education...

People say that  if a child have bad marks and doesn't learn, teachers are the blame. But I don't think so. I think that all it begins at home, in the parenting. Parents should teach and promote their children, they should teach them to read, the numbers, etc. Children will have a strong learning base and, then, all will be more easy.
There are many bad teachers that haven't vocation to teach, I know, but I think the most important learning's element is the self student.
