A tribute - Amanda Marais (1978 - 2005)

Roses may tragically wither away; but they leave behind a fragnance none compared...

It's hard to believe that someone so close to you suddenly bids a goodbye, and you don't even get a chance to tell her how much she meant to you as a friend.
True, I have never seen her except in pictures, true we have only been friends for 2 years but true friendship doesnt need one to know a person physically, the emotional connection is what differentiates a friend and a close friend.
A few years from now, when i turn back and think of things that have shaped me as a person, I will see Amanda, a girl beautiful in heart, free in mind and above all a person who lived life by the rules she set!
Amanda was all this and more...I don't know where she is now...but wherever she is, I know she is already making a few stars shine brighter.

i guess every now and then when we start to take life for granted, it takes a rude shock to remind us that what we have is to be treasured and lived with full zest..
i'm truly sorry for your loss.. but i'm sure you'll remember her with fond memories and not pain...
i've never known amanda.. but i do know your judgement of people is hardly ever wrong.. i'm sure she was a wonderful person..
take care..
love,
shweta

Hi Mandhu,

Thanks again for your mail, explaining her death..I may not have known her personally but I have read and commented on her work...she sounds like a great girl.

I'm still shaken by this piece of news. We're reminded again, not to take life for granted...

Truly sorry for your loss. Goodbye Amanda!

10.) Try making friends at different online bingo sites. You can always receive useful advice and lean more game techniques through such online bingo friends. [url=http://www.bingokisses.com]play free bingo online[/url] One of the winning systems is to play with fewer bingo cards. Most bingo players play with many bingo cards to increase their chances of a win at the game. However, playing with fewer cards provides the best odds of the game as your chances of making a big win are higher. Another bingo system in action functions according to the theory of probability. Balls from a bingo machine come out at random, which means that no one can predict emergence of any particular number. In the same vein, you can employ the probability theory to gauge the next number to emerge from the machine. Random drawing of numbers means laws of probability govern selection of balls and their appearance in a uniform distribution pattern. [url=http://www.bingokisses.com]free bingo cash[/url] If you do not know anyone who uses the gaming sites or you want some additional reinforcement your first port of call should be an online bingo community. By reading reviews by other people who use the Bingo sites, you will be able to get a feel for the different sites that exist and make a more qualified decision about which one you would like to use. The knowledge concerning different sites and what other users consider important about them is an invaluable tool for the new online Bingo player. Whether it is for fun or for money, there needs to be an element of integrity within the site and a potential for the player to win the game. The knowledge of other users concerning specific sites will tell the new online Bingo player whether the site is for real or is just masquerading in order to harvest the players email addresses in order to bombard them with spam, or worse con them out of their hard earned cash. This can all be avoided with research and trying before you buy, as mentioned earlier the best places to scope out bingo sites is by using a review site or Bingo members forum.
no deposit bingo bingo
Your aim would be to cover the prescribed pattern with the bingo letters, by coordinating the letters and numbers called. The patterns can be anything like, u shape, t shape, etc, though it usually is horizontal or vertical. As soon as you get the pattern, you should shout bingo and you get the prize. In case there are others who shouted at the same time as you, the prize will be shared among all winners.
