Forever Now
(By Michael Buble)

[Verse 1]
I just met you
It seems like yesterday
You opened up your eyes
And I recognized your face
You know that you're the one that we've been waiting for
We're gonna keep you safe
First time I held you in my arms
I knew I'd love you all the way

[Verse 2]
I tuck you in at night
Another day has passed
Every week goes by a little faster than the last
It wasn't so long ago
We walked together and you held my hand
And now you're getting too big to want to
But I hope you'll always understand

[Chorus]
That I'm always gonna lift you up
And I'm never gonna let you down
No matter what you do
I'm forever proud of you
I love you forever now

[Verse 3]
Through your ears I hear it
Through your eyes I see
A world full of magic
Full of possibilities
You know as well as anybody how tough this life can be
But you've got so much strength inside you
A strength I pray you'll never need

[Chorus]
And I'm always gonna lift you up
And I'm never gonna let you down
Time flies by
I hope you realize that I
Love you forever now

[Bridge]
I'm always gonna be right here
I'll always gonna cheer you up
I'm always gonna have your back
You're never gonna be alone

[Chorus]
And I'm always gonna lift you up
No, I'm never gonna let you down
No matter what you do
I'm forever proud of you
I love you forever now

'It's Just a Nightmare.' Trash· Collectors Overwhehned by Rising Amount of Household Waste

Washington, DC (CNN, April 9, 2020): Barney Shapiro, owner of Tenleytown Trash, never expected that he would turn to the Washington National Opera's costume department to design gear for his employees. But when a member of his staff heard the National Opera was sewing masks for workers on the frontlines of the coronavirus pandemic, he jumped at the chance.

    Shapiro's staffers haul trashin Washington, DC, and Maryland Like the entire waste management industry, Shapiro is trying to keep his employees healthy and safe, so they can handle the massive influx of household trash that is accumulating as more Americans self-quarantine at home.

    "Our residential volumes are drastically increased," Shapiro said "People are calling in and asking for increased services. We can't do that on a short-term basis. It's just a nightmare.''

    Republic Services, one of the largest waste management companies in the US, said it expects the volume of residential garbage to increase by as much as 30%. Jn.order to redirect resources and address the growing amount of day-to-day household waste, about SO communities nationwide have paused curbside recycling pickup and dozens have suspended yard waste collection, according to the Solid Waste. Association of America. Other companies are shifting workers to residential routes and away from slower commercial routes where many of the businesses have closed.

    Companies are also making contingency plans in case the residential volume becomes too great or their workers get sick.

    Shapiro said one of his drivers and the colleague he rides with have both tested positive for coronavirus, as well as one of his administrative employees.

    Another driver recently said he was scared to work and is staying home, according to Shapiro. And Shapiro, who employs 32 drivers, is growing concerned that more employees will want to do the same.

    "I hate to say this. Those things do tend to, snowball" he said "I can't say to a driver, 'No I want you working.' Quite honestly, they're being put at risk.''

    Many people say that they can't control themselves when shopping. Once they see cheap items, they immediately buy them even though in fact, they do not need those items. In order to avoid this bad habit, we need to have the following  attitude. First and the most significant, let's create a shopping list before we start shopping. We can use our meal planner as guidance. Also, we should check what we already have in our fridge, freezer and store cupboards so you don't waste time buying unnecessary items.

    Second, we can do grocery shopping online and get them delivered to our home. This means we won't have to spend time driving, bagging, scouring the aisles and packing up our shopping.

    Third, if the online service offers a recurring shopping list service, we can use it to save our time. This is where information on our frequently purchased items and previous shopping lists are stored so that we can reuse them and adapt them as necessary.

    Last, we can ask our family to unpacking the stuff. It will be fun!

Who may take benefits from the text? 

This song lyrics are for questions 9 to 11.

I've stood on the edge of love
But never took the leap
And you took my armour off
And did it delicately
And I let my guard down
To show you what's underneath
Thank God that you were man enough to come
Answer my mamma's prayers
You asked the question, I said, "Yes"
But I'm scared

'Cause I've never worn white
But I wanna get it right
Yeah, I really wanna try with you
No, I've never worn white
But I'm standin' here tonight
'Cause I really wanna say, "I do"
I do

See us in 60 years with a full family tree (I do)
Give my blood, sweat, and tears to reach our destiny (I do)
'Cause love is a minefield, let's take this war, baby (I do)
'Cause at the end of it all, I choose you and you choose me (I do)

Thank God I was woman enough to come
Answer your father's prayers
You asked the question
I could tell you were scared

'Cause I've never worn white
But I wanna get it right
Yeah, I really wanna try with you
No, I've never worn white
But I'm standin' here tonight
'Cause I really wanna say, "I do"

Now let's dance with each other (dance with each other)
Mixin' all of our colours
It's so easy to surrender
When you finally find forever

No, I've never worn white, no
But I really wanna try with you
Yeah, I've never worn white
But I wanna get it right
'Cause you really wanna say, "I do"
'Cause I do

Oh, I do, yeah, yeah
I do
