Dear Madam,

I am not sure of what is going on with my life. People see me as someone cheerful, but deep down, I am just a miserable being. I have been suffering from sleepless nights. I have trouble paying attention in class. I often feel left out, I think my friends hate me. I am not as pretty as they are, what more in academic. I want to be accepted, but I don't know what to do. My parents are so busy at work, they seldom have time to talk to me. Sometimes, I am so glad that they are not around, because when they are with me, I am not being my true self. I am afraid of showing my true colour to them as I know, they will not like it at all.

Help me, please.
Dee.

THE CHARGE OF THE LIGHT BRIGADE


Half a league, half a league,
Half a league onward,
All in the valley of Death
Rode the six hundred. 
"Forward, the Light Brigade!
Charge for the guns!" he said.
Into the valley of Death
Rode the six hundred.

"Forward, the Light Brigade!"
Was there a man dismayed?
Not though the soldier knew 
Some one had blundered.
Theirs not to make reply,
Theirs not to reason why,
Theirs but to do and die.
Into the valley of Death
Rode the six hundred.

Cannon to right of them,
Cannon to left of them,
Cannon in front of them
Volleyed and thundered;
Stormed at with shot and shell,
Boldly they rode and well,
Into the jaws of Death,
Into the mouth of Hell
Rode the six hundred.
