SOARING THROUGH THE FIRE
The Damage Report - Year 3 - Ending Week #17
Background Music: THE THEME FOR JOU3-1's NEWS FRONT
NOTE: This is a weekly blog entry that summarizes a series of events of a finished week in and around La Salle.
SIGH. This past week was basically the conclusion to a mind blowing semester. I gave it my best and I think it came out pretty good in the end. From our Oral Presentation in ENGL125 to the airing of our live news program for NPD we gave it our all.

Why am I putting some of text messages I received this past week here? No reason at all. As I look back and read them, I assess and digest how busy this past week was. It was a demanding part one of a semestral finale.

I look in your eyes and I can see
We've loved so dangerously
You're not trusting your heart to anyone
You tell me you're gonna play it smart
We're through before we start
But I believe that we've only just begun
When it's this good, there's no saying no
I want you so, I'm ready to go
Through the fire, to the limit, to the wall
For a chance to be with you
I'd gladly risk it all
Through the fire
Through whatever, come what may
For a chance at loving you
I'd take it all the way
Right down to the wire
Even through the fire
I know you're afraid of what you feel
You still need time to heal
And I can help if you'll only let me try
You touch me and something in me knew
What I could have with you
Now I'm not ready
to kiss that dream goodbye
When it's this sweet, there's no saying no
I need you so, I'm ready to go
CHORUS
Through the test of time
CHORUS
To the wire, to the limit
Through the fire, through whatever
Through the fire, to the limit
Through the fire, through whatever
Through the fire, to the limit
Through the fire, through whatever
THROUGH THE FIRE. Jimmy Bondoc rendition.
