In the early morning the mind is fresh and it is fine to have such a freshness. So, we can do much work in the early morning when compared to evening. There is perfect calm in the early morning. We are not distracted by noise and bustle and we have lot of problems. So, we can easily concentrate our attention on what we are doing.Henceforth it is decided to have such issues than that of anything. If we get up in the early morning, we can finish our work in good time. We can go to bed before midnight and enjoy sound sleep.

I love music. Somtimes i listen to a mix of every kind of music…usually i do this when my brain is scattered and I am in an everything mood. Then thier are the times when I cant make up my mind…so i listen to parts and pieces of songs. I try to do

this when nodody’s around it tends to drive people crazy!Then i will sometimes listen to specific types and genres of music when I am feeling a certain emotion. Or certain songs when I am thinking of certain people.

But no matter what is going on in life music is an esacpe…I time when you can clear your mind if need be….or you can use the musci to fill your head of memories and feeling that you want. I love music i believe it can be very healing.

Do you agree, how does music impact your life if at all.

Copycatting or Big Brands?

Would you risk trying unfamiliar yet affordable brands of toiletries so that you can save on your budget since the more popular brands are a lot more expensive? I grew up with the habit to stick with the more known brands since they are suppose to have more quality than other brands, but since I got married, I find myself more willing to try other brands so that I can get more out of my budget. Is it really true? Do the other brands really have less quality just because they are just new in the industry? Would you be willing to try out new brands?

B Said:

Obviously you live here in the US and have fallen prey to gullible advertising. From toothpaste to body wash, simply flip the container over and compare ingredients. A lot of no-name brands arent new in the industry, they just dont blow a bunch of cash on advertising, packaging, nice smell, pretty color, etc that also drive the cost of said product up. Especially in bathroom type products, using the pharmacy brand is BETTER than the big names because the pharmacy (equate, walgreens, etc) have more money for research, which makes the product more effective.

Here I Am Again

Don’t have much to say about life, i don’t know since when, but it actually nothing particular shows up for a long time, everyday is just as normal as the still water.

Last time i wanna write is the very last day of 2008, you know, to sum up what had happened or what i’ve done, what i’ve accomplished in 2008, but i didn’t write that post. 2008 means a lot to me: i graduated from college; the very first job in my life; those sleepless nights worried about where to go, what to do, i can still remember those songs i listened during the three months of job searching, and i still have feelings while listening to these songs, feeling of sad, feeling of hopeless.

Shouldn’t these all be remembered? Coz, as the process of a man’s  life, what he thought, how he acted would have profound effect on his future, and they also serves as the evidence of a man’s growing: Nothing unless we do something.

Don’t know how our company’s plan for lunar new year, probably i would have only three days holiday, a day for returning home, a day for coming back, only one day staying at home. And this would be a The First too, the first time in my life only have three days holiday for lunar new year. Because of this, some promises would sold down the river, like student reunion, party, relative visiting, and i remember i have a big box filled with books, the day i left school, i mailed it to one of my friends in my county, and still have no chance to get it back for almost 6 months.

Sorry then, see what i can do.

If you died at home, how long would it be before anyone knew?

I was wondering that this morning. I live alone with my two dogs and my children are 1800 miles away. I know my neighbors casually but since they have jobs, no one sees me regularly. My sister emails me sometimes but she’s busy with her own life, again many hundreds of miles away. I go to church sometimes but not regularly enough so that anyone knows me.

I think it would be many days, if not weeks, before someone discovered I died. What about you? Would someone discover your body right away or would it lie there for a long time, like mine?

B Said:

Don’t be so dark,don’t you have anyone who’d call you on a regular basis?
I know for sure I’d get a call from my work the same day,they’d call back the next day but I have no idea how long it would take someone to go and check on me. I have good friends but they are out of town often and we don’t see each other every week. My mom would very worried if I didn’t call her for a long time but she’s in another country…All and all,I’d be probably decomposing by then

When people disagree with you, what will you do?

Ive started a certain discussion in which somebody does not like me or my discussion and disagrees with me strongly, but with language I would not like to use, like you make me sick, or puke etc. I usually tend to ignore such comments and go on, for each is entitled to their opinion. However there are ways and ways to disagree without going dirty. I strongly want to write back and tell them so, but it will only create an open war of words and I dont want mylot to become a sounding board for words of war. So I feel I should let go. Have I done right? What would be your reaction to such phrases?

B Said:

I actually think you did the right. It was good of you to let it go. You would just play right into their hand if you stooped down to that person’s level and started replying with similar comments. It would just drag everything and make things more unpleasant. People like that should be ignored.

I haven’t had to deal with something like that on here but I dealt with a somewhat similar situation at work the other day. Some girl decided to attack me verbally for no reason at all. She was causing quite a scene too. I was very, very pissed off and so badly wanted to tell her off but refrained from doing so. I wasn’t going to lower myself and have a shouting match with some immature teenager.

Do You Believe in Angels???

I saw this on the news a few days ago but couldn’t find the link to share here. I’ve finally found it. This young lady’s Mom swears the angel saved her daughter’s life. The angel is ONLY visible on the security video even though a few hospital personnel indicated they felt the presence of something that day. This is one of those miracles that I pray is for real!!! Do you believe that angels can come back to take care of those of us in real need???

B said:

I don’t know exactly about angels, although I’ve read different things where we all have our “spirit guides” from the moment we’re born to help us in our life. They aren’t supposed to interfere, but I guess in dire circumstances can help us. Some cultures (like Native American) believe the spirits of our ancestors help us and are always around us. Some who are “sensitive” can actually sense and communicate with their spirit guides all the time, while the rest of us can’t.

I had one incident in my own life that is one of those…mmm…moments. Years and years ago I was crossing the street (large intersection)—the light was changing against me, but still had enough time to cross..so I thought. All of a sudden a car comes careening down full speed ahead…and I froze! I couldn’t move and I now understand why animals are hit. Any minute this car was going to run smack into me and the driver didn’t seem to slow down. Then all of a sudden I felt this gigantic push from behind me, shoving me out of the way to safety. When I looked around to see who had pushed me out of the way…no one there! So someone or something obviously helped me that day

Writing Your Memoirs: Enriching Your Storytelling

Published December 14, 2008 Uncategoried 2 Comments

The first draft is the foundation of your story. Now it can be developed into a rich, colorful tale.

My writing is all over the place…

One idea for improving your writing skills is to read your favorite authors with a critical eye. Think about what makes their stories so good. You’re not seeking to imitate. Just perhaps incorporate their style into your writing when it’s appropriate.

The mantra of many writing teachers is: show, don’t tell. An example of telling: ‘the girl was sad.’ vs. an example of showing: ‘tears trickled through the dirt on the girl’s sunburned face.’ Showing is more descriptive and there’s no doubt the girl is sad. The emotions seem more real and compelling.

It’s best to use common words. No one wants to frequently stop reading to look up words.

Your story should have a focus. Pick an event, or idea, and stick with it. Then focus on different aspects of your story. Think of how you would photograph the event, say for example at a wedding. You may take a picture of the church, of guests arriving. A picture showing the inside of the church, of the bride walking down the aisle and the happy couple exiting the church. A room full of guests at the reception. Then zoom in on the flower girl so she’s alone in your lens looking like a princess in her beautiful sparkling dress. Zoom in again on the groom’s father talking about his son as an awkward adolescence. You get the picture. :-)

Going off on an unrelated tangent, no matter how interesting, will confuse the reader and weaken your story. Leave out unnecessary facts. Don’t ramble or include irrelevant information. Or separate them into another Story.

2008 is coming to an end, and that reminds me a lot of things which happened at the same time last year: worry about passing the test; the graduation; find a god damn job, no doubt under a lot of pressure. But things happen a year later, i mean now, nothing has changed, sulky days still…

Just talkd to a friend, she said she’s on her biz trip to Vietnam and will back on Christmas eve, and i said finally, getting out of this evil country, fucking harmonious society, fucking fake relationships between people, fuck! On the other hand, that would be a good opportunity for self-development, though Vietnam is not a developed country, but at least she’s out, and me? Never been out of GD, not even a chance. And then i told her how envy i am and how sorry about myself of being at the company which i’m start to feel sick of it, she told me: maybe you’re just thinking too much.

That’s just like a strike to my head and i said, that’s the point, that’s what i’m doing! That would be the key point to eliminate my growing resentment to my job! And that’s what i’m gonna do, to get myself busy and don’t get disturbed by someone else. Sometimes i think of myself: a dreamer without dreams, what’s this all about?

Memories Which Belong to Those Post-80s

This clip represents those post-80s who were born in cities, which supposed to be a great generation, but they’re too small to live in the environment of reconstruction of the society, therefore, they have the similar experience and memories, and that makes the post-80s a symbol of social development. Thank our parents and those predecessors who help to raise us up, cultivate us and help us.

Happy thanksgiving, happy our lives.

Stay curious is a way to pretend to be an inocent, and an inocent won't matter a thing. Stay curious force you to focus on something, even it isn't something new, just think it as a go over or a chance of pratice, that's what masters do. Yes, you can.
