Seasons In The Sun


Goodbye to you my trusted friend
We"ve known each other since we were nine or ten
Together we"ve climbed hills and trees
Learned of love and ABC"s
Skinned our hearts and skinned our knees
Goodbye my friend it"s hard to die
When all the birds are singing in the sky
Now that spring is in the air
Pretty girls are everywhere
Think of me and I"ll be there

'Titanic' Theme Song


Every night in my dreams
I see you. I feel you.
That is how I know you go on.

Far across the distance
And spaces between us
You have come to show you go on.

Near, far, wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on
Once more you open the door
And you're here in my heart
And my heart will go on and on

Love can touch us one time
And last for a lifetime
And never go till we're one

Love was when I loved you
One true time I hold to
In my life we'll always go on

Near, far, wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on
Once more you open the door
And you're here in my heart
And my heart will go on and on

There is some love that will not
go away

You're here, there's nothing I fear,
And I know that my heart will go on
We'll stay forever this way
You are safe in my heart
And my heart will go on and on

Lyrics:
I wanna see the world through your eyes for a day,
maybe catch a glimpse of what its like.
To be so beautiful underneath all the pain,
maybe see the soul that lies inside.
You are, the face that you never show.
You are, it hides all I wanna know,let me see.
Oh you are, it makes my heart break. Oh you are, and Im waiting here.
Oh you are, waiting all my life for.
The moment you might step outside show me whats been hiding under there.
When you unlock the gate, twilights fall daylights break.
Nothing stop the way I felt for you now.
Cause Ive seen through the nights,
through the tainted coloured glass.
Saw inside the log behind the shadow.
You are, the face that you never show.
You are, it hides all I wanna know,let me see.
Oh you are, it makes my heart break.
Oh you are, and Im waiting here.
Oh you are, waiting all my life for.
The moment you might step outside show me whats been hiding underneath the past I know its gone so fast,
sometimes the bad things stay.
While all the good tends to fade out of your heart and mine but somethings left behind and baby no one can take it away yeah.

Người đạt điểm IELTS cao nhất Việt Nam

Một trong những thí sinh đạt điểm IELTS cao nhất Việt Nam là Nguyễn Ngọc Nhất Hạnh. Tuy có lợi thế là được học tiếng Anh tại một trường quốc tế nhưng kết quả 8,5 IELTS, trong đó có hai điểm 9 cho bài đọc và viết, của cô bé 18 tuổi này đã gây ấn tượng lớn cho rất nhiều người.





Theo đánh giá của ông Lê Xuân Bình, Giám đốc Phát triển kinh doanh IELTS của Hội đồng Anh tại Việt Nam, trong mấy năm trở lại đây, điểm thi IELTS của thí sinh Việt Nam đã tăng lên một cách đáng kể và ngày càng có nhiều thí sinh đạt điểm 8,5 (điểm cao nhất là 9,0). Ông Bình cho biết thêm “điểm số trung bình của các thí sinh Việt nam hiện giờ là 5,7, ngang bằng với Thái Lan, Hàn Quốc và cao hơn Trung Quốc và Pakistan. Các thí sinh Việt Nam ngày càng có nhận thức tốt hơn về mẫu bài thi và đầu tư nhiều thời gian hơn cho kì thi IELTS.”

Rhythm Of The Rain


Listen to the rhythm of the falling rain
Telling me just what a fool I've been
I wish that it would go and let me cry in vain
And let me be alone again

The only girl I care about has gone away
Looking for a brand new start
But little does she know
That when she left that day
Along with her she took my heart

Rain please tell me now does that seem fair
For her to steal my heart away when she don't care
I can't love another when my hearts somewhere far away

The only girl I care about has gone away
Looking for a brand new start
But little does she know that when she left that day
Along with her she took my heart

[Instrumental Interlude]

Rain won't you tell her that I love her so
Please ask the sun to set her heart aglow
Rain in her heart and let the love we knew start to grow

Listen to the rhythm of the falling rain
Telling me just what a fool I've been
I wish that it would go and let me cry in vain
And let me be alone again

Oh, listen to the falling rain
Pitter pater, pitter pater
Oh, oh, oh, listen to the falling rain
Pitter pater, pitter pater

The Band Perry - If I Die Young


If I die young, bury me in satin
Lay me down on a, bed of roses
Sink me in the river, at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song

Uh oh, uh oh

Lord make me a rainbow, I’ll shine down on my mother
She'll know I’m safe with you when she stands under my colors, oh and
Life ain't always what you think it ought to be, no
Ain't even grey, but she buries her baby

The sharp knife of a short life, well
I’ve had, just enough time

If I die young, bury me in satin
Lay me down on a, bed of roses
Sink me in the river, at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song

The sharp knife of a short life, well
I’ve had, just enough time

And I’ll be wearing white, when I come into your kingdom
I’m as green as the ring on my little, cold finger, I’ve
Never known the lovin' of a man
But it sure felt nice when he was holding my hand, there’s a
Boy here in town says he’ll, love my forever
Who would have thought forever could be severed by
The sharp knife of a short life, well
I’ve had, just enough time

So put on your best boys and I’ll wear my pearls
What I never did is done

A penny for my thoughts, oh no, I’ll sell them for a dollar
They're worth so much more after I’m a goner
And maybe then you’ll hear the words I been singin’
Funny when your dead how people start listenin’

If I die young, bury me in satin
Lay me down on a, bed of roses
Sink me in the river, at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song

Uh oh (uh, oh)
The ballad of a dove (uh, oh)
Go with peace and love
Gather up your tears, keep ‘em in your pocket
Save them for a time when your really gonna need them, oh

The sharp knife of a short life, well
I’ve had, just enough time

So put on your best boys and I’ll wear my pearls

Going abroad to attend English summer camps in fashion

In order to help children have attractive summer holidays, many Vietnamese parents are ready to spend hundreds of millions of dong to send their children abroad to English summer camps.


While low and medium income workers queue up in front of children’s houses and summer clubs to register summer classes for their children, high income parents think of sending their children abroad to English summer camps. May and June are the good time for departure.

Taylor Swift - Mine


You were in college working part time waitin’ tables
Left a small town, never looked back
I was a flight risk with a fear of fallin’
Wondering why we bother with love if it never lasts

I say "Can you believe it?
As we’re lying on the couch?"
The moment I can see it.
Yes, yes, I can see it now.

Do you remember, we were sitting there by the water?
You put your arm around me for the first time.
You made a rebel of a careless man’s careful daughter.
You are the best thing that’s ever been mine.

Flash forward and we’re taking on the world together,
And there’s a drawer of my things at your place.
You learn my secrets and you figure out why I’m guarded,
You say we’ll never make my parents’ mistakes.

But we got bills to pay,
We got nothing figured out,
When it was hard to take,
Yes, yes, this is what I thought about.

Do you remember, we were sitting there, by the water?
You put your arm around me for the first time
You made a rebel of a careless man’s careful daughter
You are the best thing that’s ever been mine.

Do you remember all the city lights on the water?
You saw me start to believe for the first time
You made a rebel of a careless man’s careful daughter
You are the best thing that’s ever been mine.

Oh, oh, oh

And I remember that fight
Two-thirty AM
As everything was slipping right out of our hands
I ran out crying and you followed me out into the street
Braced myself for the "Goodbye"
‘cause that’s all I’ve ever known
Then you took me by surprise
You said, "I’ll never leave you alone."

You said, "I remember how we felt sitting by the water
And every time I look at you, it’s like the first time
I fell in love with a careless man’s careful daughter
She is the best thing that’s ever been mine."

Hold on, make it last
Hold on, never turn back

You made a rebel of a careless man’s careful daughter
You are the best thing that’s ever been mine.
(Hold on) Do you believe it?
(Hold on) Gonna make it now.
(Hold on) I can see it,
(Yes, yes) I can see it now.
