Beautiful Memory

My dream...(",)

Everytime I see a plane in the sky. I will stop doing everythingand look at it.I know that there are many passenger and the crews in it. I hope one day I will have a chance to stand elegantly as a flight attendant. My inspiration happened when i was young. I went to the airport with my mom. I saw an air-hostess of Swiss Airline.She was so beautiful and graceful. I had just known that I wantedto be like her in the future. So I have to study hard espacially in English languages. I always hope my dream will come true. I am sure I can do it.

Eiffel Tower History

2006-01-11T00:21:00.000-08:00

The Eiffel Tower was built for the International Exhibition of Paris of 1889 commemorating the centenary of the French Revolution. The Prince of Wales, later King Edward VII of England, opened the tower. Of the 700 proposals submitted in a design competition, Gustave Eiffel's was unanimously chosen. However it was not accepted by all at first, and a petition of 300 names - including those of Maupassant, Emile Zola, Charles Garnier (architect of the Opéra Garnier), and Dumas the Younger - protested its construction.

At 300 meters (320.75 m including antenna), and 7,000 tons, it was the world's tallest building until 1930. Other statistics include:

2.5 million rivets
300 stelel workers, and 2 years (1887-1889) to construct it.
Sway of at most 12 cm in high winds.
Height varies up to 15 cm depending on temperature.
15,000 iron pieces (excluding rivets). 40 tons of paint. 1652 steps to the top. 0

The tower was almost torn down in 1909, but was saved because of its antenna - used for telegraphy at that time. Beginning in 1910 it became part of the International Time Service. French radio (since 1918), and French television (since 1957) have also made use of its stature.

During its lifetime, the Eiffel Tower has also witnessed a few strange scenes, including being scaled by a mountaineer in 1954, and parachuted off of in 1984 by two Englishmen. In 1923 a journalist rode a bicycle down from the first level. Some accounts say he rode down the stairs, other accounts suggest the exterior of one of the tower's four legs which slope outward.

Have you ever wondered what friendship is?
Friendship is a strong thread,
Which can never be broken.

Friendship is everlasting,
And can only be destroyed
When death comes by.

Friendship is like a delicate leaf,
Which once destroyed
Can never be got again.

It is a thing which connects,
Two human souls,
With a bond of love.

Friendship is unbreakable,
It strengthens with Love,
affection and care.
It is the greatest GIFT OF GOD FOR MANKIND.

Francophonie

2005-12-15T03:22:00.000-08:00

On 14th December,2005 . The Faculty of Arts of Silpakorn University organized " Francophonie" which means a country that speak French as an official language. My school took a group of students that study in English-French program from grade 10-12 to take in "Francophonie". Some of the Students participated in a competition such as answering questions about French Culture , singing contest , drawing contest etc. At night, there were many shows perfomed by the french majored students. I'm impressed in "Francophonie" because I learn many thing that I never know before and it's an inspiration to make me interested in french. I hope oneday in the future I would like to study in this faculty and I'd like to choose either English or French.
