The man was enjoying the scenery, when it suddenly occurred to him that he was dead.
He remembered dying, and that his faithful dog had been dead for many years.
He wondered where the road was leading them.
After a while, they came to a high, white stone wall along one side of the road. It looked like fine marble.
As he reached the wall, he saw a magnificent gate in the arch, and the street that led to the gate made from pure gold.
He and the dog walked toward the gate, and as he got closer, he saw a man at a desk to one side.
When he was close enough, he called out, "Excuse me, where are we?"
"This is heaven, sir," the man answered.
"Wow! Would you happen to have some water? We have traveled far," the man said.
"Of course, sir. Come right in, and I'll have some ice water brought right up." The man gestured, and the gate began to open.
"Can my friend," gesturing toward his dog, "come in, too?" the traveler asked.
"I'm sorry, sir, but we don't accept pets."
The man thought a moment, remembering all the years this dog remained loyal to him and then turned back toward the road and continued the way he had been going.
After another long walk he came to a plain dirt road, which led through a farm gate that looked as if it had never been closed.
There was no fence. As he approached the gate, he saw a man inside, leaning against a tree and reading a book.
"Excuse me!" he called to the reader. "Do you have any water? We have traveled far."
"Yes, sure, there's a faucet over there." The man pointed to a place that couldn't be seen from outside the gate. "Come on in and help yourself."
"How about my friend here?" the traveler gestured to his dog.
"There should be a bowl by the faucet; he is welcome to share."
They went through the gate, and sure enough, there was an old-fashioned faucet with a bowl beside it.
The traveler filled the bowl and took a long drink himself, then he gave some to the dog.
When they were full, he and the dog walked back toward the man who was standing by the tree waiting for them.
"What do you call this place?" the traveler asked.
"This is heaven," was the answer.
"Well, that's confusing," the traveler said. "The man down the road said that was heaven, too."
"Oh, you mean the place with the gold street and pearly gates? Nope. That's hell."
"Doesn't it make you mad for them to use your name like that?"
"No. We're just happy that they screen out the folks who'd leave their best friends behind in exchange for material things."
Haha
those materialistic suckers...X)
excuse me :X

this is a different thing this has nothing to do with 2/2 =) 2/2 is great but what i'm about to write is not
this is the end of the torment what happens there, stays there i'm gonna leave it all behind and just take what's worthy it's been long long and tiring and finally, i'm glad it's all over i never wanted it to be this way the gate is now locked with the warning sign: enter at your own risk i've retreated to my sanctuary it never looked so good maybe it's been ages since i looked at it what a pity i should've enjoyed this view this view was more beautiful much much more beautiful what was i thinking staring at a piece of shit using a stick poking at it hoping it would be something more than what it is but in the end shit is still shit that's what i've learnt it was new it was fascinating even if it's at the edge on the verge of falling i held on because i saw some value in it but over time it became stale i didn't bother holding on because it lost all its worth it shook me it weirded me out now it just pisses me off if my life were a city you charged in like a troop of army destroying, causing chaos the city's wrecked but the residents had enough they're not gonna take anymore of your bull the ferocious eyes of my army drove you out now i can see the city repairing itself one by one, slowly, the pieces come together good as new all these happened when you were unconscious lying in the hospital bed so when you woke up it's as if nothing happened this is the best mirage ever it works like a one way mirror and i'm glad it did
i won't lie that i wasn't sad to see you go
in other words
i ain't sad to see you go
excuse me :X

this other part is dedicated to someone:
i never thought i would say this, but when i saw your teary eyes that was when i first realized that i will miss you it made me think back to all those times and almost wanted to cry too you were a very good friend a friend who was very cooperative in a sense that you would play along with me and this makes you not just any friend i gotta say, all those 'bullying' at the back if they were too much and i don't realize it, i'm sorry but i know you knew they were for fun, right? you were the perfect target to be 'bullied' :p you don't really get angry, you just play along and that's great already so here and now, i wanna say a big THANK YOU to you for being my playmate, for being such a good partner =D i know i won't forget you because you meant something to me( a perfect target to be 'bullied' xp) i really had fun annoying you geez, i don't know who could make my job of annoying as fun as you did you were a great partner in fact, the greatest partner i've had so far and i'm very happy to have sat with you cause i never had so much fun 'bullying' someone you understood my jokes, jokes that other people can't understand
this person, has a fixed mood swing in the mornings before recess, she's some sort perky then after recess, she's gloomy seldomly, she remains perky after recess weirdo, right? x) (nod your head in agreement) but wait, there's more... another interesting fact, to me, she can manage to feel so so so sleepy as early as 8 in the morning like she's been through a lot of work for the times i've sat with her, was it a year and a half or just a year? i can't really remember,i've known her weak spots and the special place where all her pespiration are concentrated xp
and i'll never forget that unique smell not long ago the smell that comes and goes the smell i was so curious about you and your wiggling finger'swimming' about during science lesson and forcing me to make a hole so that your finger can 'swim' in i think you're influenced by me and all the times you called out for help and everybody never fails to not rescue you and just leave you there or side with me it was fun, wasn't it? XD i hope you have as much fun as i did my favourite statements to you: - your annoyance is my happiness - if i did not like you as a friend, i wouldn't have even bothered to 'bully' you ( this was when you thought i did not like you, was it?) and your ever so famous quotes, remember? :P -learning got moustache -blue india -i'm still insane for the last one, how i wish you meant it hahahaha! and your ever so famous statement: - why you all always bully me... ( in a uber pathetic tone) hahahahhahahahahahahahahaha!! bet you can never forget T.B. haha! can use it like a boomerang shoot already will come back just imagine that! lmao! can you believe it? i said all these and it's sooooo loooong you should be very very honoured! and by now, if you still haven't realized who you are, then you are gone. haha anyways, if you can't really figure it out should i relieve you of your pain? or else later you think until head bleed hahaha!! i don't think i need cause i know you'll know :D it's obvious enough... the look in your eyes today it's like as though we'll never see each other again don't worry, i won't let that happen as your annoyer, you'll never see the end of me! XD well, stay optimistic! give everything you've got! all the best to you! be happy and enjoy your life to the fullest! besides, you've only got one lifetime, and this lifetime is super special because it has me in it!! XD by the way, if you feel like being annoyed you are always welcome to look for me i guarantee to put a frown on your face! :p and congratulations to you! you made it as a member to my exclusive club of hard-to-forget-people along with other people( if you're wondering who's the top member, like, duh, it's me. will i ever forget myself?) happy? you say: very! i'm overjoyed! over the moon! over the sun! over everywhere! i'm in the club! see? you're still as kuku as ever hahaha! xp have fun with your life! =D

the schwa was here!! this book is incredible!! i really like this book i like the writing style the content, everything! there are some parts in the content which was really lame but it was hilarious. it's a great book! must read it if you have the chance. this book makes other books look like ...... =) other books are either good in content but not in writing style, not the kind that i like or good in writing style but the content are just crap. how i wish this could be our lit book instead of those kind we get which are so dead. not a single bit of humour in it. nadda- or they try to be funny, which make them suck even more. i declare the schwa was here my favourite from now on. :) according to the book, schwa: the faint vowel sound in many unstressed syllabus in the english language. it is signified by the pronunciation "uh". for example, the 'e' in overloook, the 'a' in forgettable, and the 'o' in the run-of-the-mill. it is the most common vowel sound in the english language. i don't really understand this either but the way i figure, it's a vowel that doesn't make much a difference even if you left it out, like when you spell overlook as ovrlook,it still sounds like overlook when you pronounce it. something like that, i think. the boy in the book is just like this vowel. the way this boy goes around unnoticed is kinda freaky, like the teacher could forget to prepare him a report card because they forgot about him or sometimes you could not even see him even if he's standing in front of you until someone points him out. in this book, the schwa we're talking about is calvin schwa. " the schwa effect" they say, is the effect that makes you forget about him, like wipe him out of your brain so that no one really remembers he was really there. this was mentioned in the book several times. in a forest, if a tree falls and no one was there to listen, then the tree was never really there, because if no one hears it, nobody will know it existed. haha...creepy...
