Hearts for Haiti

Heart Glitters

This is the motto for our high-school campaign to help Haiti. As you all know, the 14th. February is Saint Valentine's Day. For this reason, the school centre has organised this campaign to raise funds to help that devastated country after the last earthquakes. During the 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 8th. of this month, you can hire your hearts to 4th year diversification students for 0.10€ each. You can send them to your best friends or classmates, to thank someone, if you want to cheer him/her up or even to congratulate someone's marks. The message you want to be sent is up to you! Our students will wait for you next to the reception, at break time. On Friday, 12th. these pupils will just come around the classrooms to deliver your dedicated hearts.

Remember that all the money collected will be paid into a Unicef bank account to help Haiti. We will inform you via the school planks at our centre.

We hope your hearts arrive to Haiti through your classmates. Thanks for your collaboration!

Listen and play

This is my last discovery on the net: Oren Lavie (Tel Aviv, 1976), singer, songwriter, playwright and theatre director. His album, The Opposite Side of the Sea has been a success with more than 10 million and a hundred reproductions only on youtube. The song I've chosen, Her Morning Elegance is the first single. It has been nominated on the last Grammy Awards for best short form music video. He has recorded it by using the stop-motion technique with a very original effect on the performance.

By any chance, can you find some mistakes on the lyrics? Have fun!
