For Me...

I think this one is written for me....

ice cream, alcohol, meaningless hookups: the go-to antidotes for a bad breakup are often about distraction rather than relief. What's more, they tend to injure more than assuage, as if the breakup itself didn't cause enough pain.

10 healthy ways to deal with getting dumped that don't include booze, food or flings:

1. Buy the Dumped! Fun and Games Activity Book, which offers such whimsical games as “I Cried to Smell Few (I Tried to Tell You).” Help broken-hearted “Sam” decipher what his friends have been telling him about his now ex-girlfriend in lines such as “Why stink clue fan screw fetter.” Translation: “I think you can do better.”

2. Surround yourself with happy people. Recent research from Harvard and the University of California, San Diego shows happiness is “infectious,” so take up with a group of friends or organization that you know is high on life.

3. Log on to justbeendumped.wordpress.com and submit your breakup e-mails or IM conversations. The names are changed, so it's an anonymous way to have complete strangers tell you what a jerk he was. Your friends need a break anyway.

4. Listen to these top 10 breakup songs of the year. From Pink to Kanye, these tunes are all about getting back on your feet.

5. Learn boxing. Boxinggyms.com lists location around the country. Get angry—then get ripped.

6. Give your home a makeover. Following feng shui principles can help you clear out the emotional and physical clutter from your previously shared space.

7. Get even without getting a restraining order: practice your frustrations on a voodoo doll instead.

8. Write. Whether on a blog, in a journal or in a letter you may decide never to send, getting the words from brain to paper or screen can improve your mental and physical health.

9. Volunteer for a cause you feel passionate about or to help those whose plight might give you a new perspective on your own. VolunteerMatch can help you find the right place and the right time.

10. Fall in love with a new scent. Learn to associate the smell of a new perfume, candle, flower or detergent—even—with your new, improved and single self. Take a sniff everytime the breakup blues arise.

Of course, sometimes a glass (ok, or a botttle) of wine, meeting someone new or buying a hot new dress is the just what the doctor ordered. Ultimately, do what feels right to you.

Defeated?..

I know life is a gift from a supreme being. We are here for a reason and a purpose that we need to find and understand.

We are soldiers sent on a mission but the mission is highly classified. Communication is unclear for only through prayers that we send back to him our reports and improvements. You may sometimes doubt if your reports are heard and lose trust, but responses to your reports are send back to you but only the heart and soul could feel and understand.

But what will you do if the only thing that receives back the responses of your report is broken?

When during the war your heart was broken, you may be able to fix it and put the pieces together but it could no longer function very well.

That's why we have our soul. To accompany the heart and serves as a battery pack.

And that's what I a trying to do...

Though its not easy and still unclear how, but I am beginning to figure it out.

I hope somehow, my heart would soon recharge and make me feel that long lost rhythm of life..

Thank you to all those that helped me stand when my heart could no longer accept the blows of a human emotions...

my cautious heart...

The emptiness in my heart is growing faster and heavier. I don't know how to stop it and i don't know if it will end.

I think i tried all things to make it stop and live again, unfortunately the emptiness is slowly drowning me.

The past few months was great. I learned to go out and had some party. I even smiled and laughed my heart out, but then it stopped living again.

I remember my heart beating fast for the first time in so many years. The excitement and thrill was tremendous that i thought it will stay that way, but then here i am alone and feeling miserable again.

I am feeling lost and empty. I feel as if there's no more hope...

For the past weeks i tried partying again, but the music, the wine and the company do not offer the same excitement, as if the glaze of the melted sugar coating the party was lost and the sugar itself lost its sweet taste.

I tried doing my favorite past time, driving along the country road, but the sight that amazes me no longer make me sigh with relief and fill me with compassion.

As though i just got tired of everything and the climb to the summit is no longer rewarding.

As if my heart is saying "I've seen that!", "I'm tired and I'm bored"...

As if the question "What now?" is hanging in the air around me....

I think i need help...

I...

I thought i had my heart fixed! I thought everything is healed, but why cant i feel my heart beat again?

I had been hurt and lived through it for a very long time, and i thought i am ready to live and love again, but i don't know whats wrong or whats not right. Have i lived alone for so long that my heart was accustomed to being alone?

How many nights i wished i had someone in my arms to hold, to care and to love, but it seems my heart is no longer capable of loving.

I looked and take a second look on everyone but they just don't make a spark that could ignite the fire in my heart.

Am i just rushing things or is this my punishment in imprisoning my heart in long lost love?

I am again in the verge of collapsing, of being lost and in despair...

I thought i had all planed and i know where i am going but then i don't know....

I smiled and laughed and i thought my heart smiled and laughed with me...

I am not getting any younger but i don't want to fail in love again...

Is my heart just cautious?

or my heart is dead?

-----------------------------------

I hope someone will come soon and save it...

hmmmm...

well, I think i am finally back in the blogger's world, the reports and meetings finally subsided and the new branch of our business is up and running, and i am very ready to accept a more peaceful and relax life. Just me and my computer and an office just me updating my blog haha.

How funny when things happen, everything just pour out, like a heavy rain and you just don't know where to go just not to get wet and feel bad about it.

But sometimes the more you hide and fell sorry about the rain the more you become alone and lonely.

But when you start facing and learning to have fun in the rain that you would be more productive, and more happy about it.

The rain may make us wet and drain in rain water, but water is a source of life.

Next time if rain come pouring again, why don't you try and take a splash? enjoy it and learn to love it, because rain is a part of our life, if we see the rain as an enemy, now i think is the right time to make it an ally.

wow... did i make sense? hehehe

Just looking back...

I hated numbers as a student. I sometimes fell asleep in classes that dealt with numbers, well, okey I always sleep and skip my mathematics class. I am confused with the long solutions they present in every mathematical problem. I don't know why the solution have to be very long and confusing. And i don't have any interest in them.

I love stories and poems so i took Literature as a major, and i did well. Unfortunately fate played its trick and i was suddenly enveloped in a job that does not only include numbers but live with numbers.

I detest the job and plan on quitting, but then an angel just made me love numbers, made me understand and use them in my daily life. Well sometimes if you're in love, There's nothing you can do for the one that you love, and wella! Here I am numbers all around me, long solutions for a very simple mathematical problem and a mathematical problem that sometimes trick and treat you!

I learned to love the job and i really cared and love it and was rewarded! Unfortunately the angel who taught me love what i am doing took its flight and never came back in my arms.

I still remember her sometimes but the fellings no longer hurts. I remember the girl but i dont remember the feelings anymore hehe.

I am just very thankful she helped me love numbers.

I dont know why i am writting this maybe just to show my gratitude for her efforts and her efforts was not put to waste.

I was slumped for a long time for her lost but now i am ready to face her and say thank you without any hurt feelings in my heart.

Thursday, October 9, 2008

hmmmm....

I had been very busy for the last few days. Meetings, reports and deadlines seemed to have all dumped in my table and my life was just in complete chaos.

Wheew! what a week, I really have to remember this month and i hope it will never happen again.

Now at least the rush finally subsided and i hope the tranquil life i had before will now once more handed to me hehehe.

I really want to forget how many aspirin i took just to ease the pain of headache and to finally rest my eyes that only had an hour or so to rest for the past week and to finally rest my mind from the worries of the accounting world.

Numbers, debit, and credit is starting to haunt me and follow me even in my dreams.... And more formulas, and variances are trying to ruin my life.

But then they're just part of my job, I choose and love this job so i have to enjoy all the nightmares and headaches that goes with it hehe.

Wish me luck, I need it ....

And hopefully to have more time with my blog, seemed like my blog is becoming more like a xerox machine haha..

Life Before the Computer


An
application was for employment
A
program was a TV show
A
cursor used profanity
A
keyboard was a piano!

Memory was something that you lost with age
A
CD was a bank account
And if you had a
3 � inch floppy
You hoped nobody found out!

Compress was something you did to garbage
Not something you did to a file
And if you
unzipped anything in public
You'd be in jail for awhile!

Log on was adding wood to a fire
Hard drive was a long trip on the road
A
mouse pad was where a mouse lived
And a
backup happened to your commode!

Cut - you did with a pocket knife
Paste you did with glue
A
web was a spider's home
And a
virus was the flu!

I guess I'll stick to my pad and paper
And the memory in my head
I hear nobody's been killed in a computer crash
But when it happens they wish they were dead!

How to hire people

Put about 100 bricks in no particular order in a closed room with an open window. Then send 2 or 3 candidates in the room and close the door. Leave them alone and come back after 6 hours and then analyze the situation.

  • If they are counting the bricks ... Put them in the accounts department.
  • If they are recounting them. Put them in auditing.
  • If they have messed up the whole place with the bricks. Put them in engineering.
  • If they are arranging the bricks in some strange order. Put them in planning.
  • If they are throwing the bricks at each other. Put them in operations.
  • If they are sleeping. Put them in reception
  • If they have broken the bricks into pieces. Put them in information technology.
  • If they are sitting idle. Put them in human resources.
  • If they say they have tried different combination's, yet not a brick has been moved. Put them in sales.
  • If they have already left for the day. Put them in marketing.
  • If they are staring out of the window. Put them on strategic planning. And then last but not least.
  • If they are talking to each other and not a single brick has been moved. Congratulate them and put them in top management!

Pronouncing English...


Pronouncing English...


Dearest creature in creation,
Study English pronunciation.
I will teach you in my verse
Sounds like corpse, corps, horse, and worse.
I will keep you, Suzy, busy,
Make your head with heat grow dizzy.
Tear in eye, your dress will tear.
So shall I! Oh hear my prayer.

Just compare heart, beard, and heard,
Dies and diet, lord and word,
Sword and sward, retain and Britain.
(Mind the latter, how it's written.)
Now I surely will not plague you
With such words as plaque and ague.
But be careful how you speak:
Say break and steak, but bleak and streak;
Cloven, oven, how and low,
Script, receipt, show, poem, and toe.

Hear me say, devoid of trickery,
Daughter, laughter, and Terpsichore,
Typhoid, measles, topsails, aisles,
Exiles, similes, and reviles;
Scholar, vicar, and cigar,
Solar, mica, war and far;
One, anemone, Balmoral,
Kitchen, lichen, laundry, laurel;
Gertrude, German, wind and mind,
Scene, Melpomene, mankind.

Billet does not rhyme with ballet,
Bouquet, wallet, mallet, chalet.
Blood and flood are not like food,
Nor is mould like should and would.
Viscous, viscount, load and broad,
Toward, to forward, to reward.
And your pronunciation's OK
When you correctly say croquet,
Rounded, wounded, grieve and sieve,
Friend and fiend, alive and live.

Ivy, privy, famous; clamour
And enamour rhyme with hammer.
River, rival, tomb, bomb, comb,
Doll and roll and some and home.
Stranger does not rhyme with anger,
Neither does devour with clangour.
Souls but foul, haunt but aunt,
Font, front, wont, want, grand, and grant,
Shoes, goes, does. Now first say finger,
And then singer, ginger, linger,
Real, zeal, mauve, gauze, gouge and gauge,
Marriage, foliage, mirage, and age.

Query does not rhyme with very,
Nor does fury sound like bury.
Dost, lost, post and doth, cloth, loth.
Job, nob, bosom, transom, oath.
Though the differences seem little,
We say actual but victual.
Refer does not rhyme with deafer.
Foeffer does, and zephyr, heifer.
Mint, pint, senate and sedate;
Dull, bull, and George ate late.
Scenic, Arabic, Pacific,
Science, conscience, scientific.

Liberty, library, heave and heaven,
Rachel, ache, moustache, eleven.
We say hallowed, but allowed,
People, leopard, towed, but vowed.
Mark the differences, moreover,
Between mover, cover, clover;
Leeches, breeches, wise, precise,
Chalice, but police and lice;
Camel, constable, unstable,
Principle, disciple, label.

Petal, panel, and canal,
Wait, surprise, plait, promise, pal.
Worm and storm, chaise, chaos, chair,
Senator, spectator, mayor.
Tour, but our and succour, four.
Gas, alas, and Arkansas.
Sea, idea, Korea, area,
Psalm, Maria, but malaria.
Youth, south, southern, cleanse and clean.
Doctrine, turpentine, marine.

Compare alien with Italian,
Dandelion and battalion.
Sally with ally, yea, ye,
Eye, I, ay, aye, whey, and key.
Say aver, but ever, fever,
Neither, leisure, skein, deceiver.
Heron, granary, canary.
Crevice and device and aerie.

Face, but preface, not efface.
Phlegm, phlegmatic, ass, glass, bass.
Large, but target, gin, give, verging,
Ought, out, joust and scour, scourging.
Ear, but earn and wear and tear
Do not rhyme with here but ere.
Seven is right, but so is even,
Hyphen, roughen, nephew Stephen,
Monkey, donkey, Turk and jerk,
Ask, grasp, wasp, and cork and work.

Pronunciation -- think of Psyche!
Is a paling stout and spikey?
Won't it make you lose your wits,
Writing groats and saying grits?
It's a dark abyss or tunnel:
Strewn with stones, stowed, solace, gunwale,
Islington and Isle of Wight,
Housewife, verdict and indict.

Finally, which rhymes with enough --
Though, through, plough, or dough, or cough?
Hiccough has the sound of cup.
My advice is to give up!!!

Tagalog Na Tunay

A young, good-looking representative from Laguna sponsored a bill recommending Filipino language be used in all levels of accounting firms and banking institutions. The Solon claimed it will provide a better understanding of the business transactions for those who are inexperienced and non-English speaking citizens.

The bill received unanimous approval from the House and was presented to the President for signature to become the law of the land. But in spite of the overwhelming pressure from the members of Congress, President Gloria Arroyo vetoed the bill.

Why?

She found out that when the English "business" words are translated in Tagalog, they sound very malicious and are "nakaka-hiya at nakaka-kilabot! "

Here are a few sample words - English to Tagalog

  • Asset - Ari
  • Fixed Asset - Nakatirik na ari
  • Liquid Asset - Basang ari
  • Solid Asset - Matigas na ari
  • Owned Asset - Sariling pag-aari
  • Other Asset - Ari ng iba
  • False Asset - Ari-ari-an
  • Miscellaneous Asset - Iba-ibang klaseng ari
  • Asset Write off - Pinutol na pagaari
  • Depreciation of Asset - Laspag na pag-aari
  • Fully Depreciated Asset - Laspag na laspag na pag-aari
  • Earning asset - Tumutubong pag-aari
  • Working Asset - Ganado pa ang ari
  • Non-earning Asset - Baldado na ang ari
  • Erroneous Entry - Mali ang pagkaka-pasok
  • Double Entry - Dalawang beses ipinasok
  • Multiple Entry - Labas pasok nang labas pasok
  • Correcting Entry - Itinama ang pagpasok
  • Reversing Entry - Baligtad ang pagkakapasok
  • Dead Asset - Patay na ang ARI

I wonder how these words evolve.... hahaha

New Filipino 101


These are the words that are so unique and loaded in meaning that they will never find a direct translation in the English language. Forget traditional dictionaries. Keep this.

1. *Achuchu* (A-chu-chu).
This refers to the pointless insincerities being said during long, involved conversations about nothing at all.

2. *Ano* (A-noh).
The all-around, all-purpose word for everything.

(1) Pronoun in interrogation: Ano? (What)
(2) Noun: Where is your ano? (Where is your father/mother/dead-uncle's-second-cousin)
(3) Verb: Anuhin this. (Paint/kill/maim/castrate this.)
(4) Adjective: This is so ano. (This is so pretty/big/astounding.)
(5) Interjection: Ano! (What the hell!)
(6) Substitute for genitalia : Did you ano your ano?

The use of ano is quite dangerous for the untrained ear, and must be put into the proper setting. "Honey, the ano is too long, we have to cut it," must be accompanied by the proper understanding of the context, as results may be critical to a couple's future.

3. *Booba* (boo-bah).
A female blessed with larger than usual mammary glands,which can be used as weapons of mass destruction.

4. *Checheboreche* (Che-che-boh-re-che)
Same as achuchu. It is interesting to ponder on the reason why there are so many words in the Filipino language t! hat beautifully describe meaningless chatter.

5. *Epal* (Eh-pal).
An individual who believes he is God.

6. *Gigil* (gee-gil).

When you're around, I'm kilig, when you're not, I get gigil. You may think all this is achuchu, kaekekan, just checheboreche, but in truth, my love, I'm so ano with you."


what do you think? haha

Stress in the workplace is not a new phenomenon, but it is a greater threat to employee health and well-being than ever before. While technology has made aspects of many jobs easier, it has also added to the anxieties of office life through information overload, heightened pressure for productivity, and a threatening sense of impermanence in the workplace. In 1996, the World Health Organization labeled stress a “worldwide epidemic.” Today, workplace stress is estimated to cost billion a year in poor performance, absenteeism and health costs.

What is workplace stress?

Stress—the responses our bodies and minds have to the demands placed on them—is a normal part of life and a normal part of any job. Without stress, we wouldn’t meet deadlines, strive to hit sales or production targets, or line up new clients. Meeting the demands and challenges of a job is part of what makes work interesting and satisfying, and it’s often what allows people to develop new skills and advance in their careers. In the workplace, we regularly experience stress-causing situations, react to them with heightened tension, then return to a more relaxed state when the crisis, big or small, is resolved. However, problems occur when stress is so overwhelming or constant that the tension never abates and we never get to relax.

What we think of as “job stress” is what happens when:

  • The challenges and demands of work become excessive.
  • The pressures of the workplace surpass workers’ abilities to handle them.
  • Satisfaction becomes frustration and exhaustion.

When stress crosses the line from normal to excessive, it can trigger physical and emotional responses that are harmful to employees and businesses alike. And unfortunately, for many people “stress” has become synonymous with “work.”

What is sexuality?


When you think of sexuality, your first thought may be the physical act of sexual intercourse. But sexuality goes beyond engaging in sexual activity.

As a human being, your sexuality is a part of your physical, emotional, intellectual, and social self. It affects how you think of yourself and how you relate to others, as well as how they relate to you, and it is a part of you throughout your entire life.

Since every person is different, it is difficult to define "normal" sexuality or sexual activity. Many factors may influence your sexuality, including your gender, sexual orientation, hormone levels, age, and personal perspectives, such as your views on sex and your religious beliefs and values.

You may have certain definitions of how you think a man or woman should look and behave, and these expectations play a part in your sexuality, too.

It's important to recognize what is normal for you--what makes you feel comfortable and satisfied--and that it may be different from what is normal for someone else.

A "normal" sexual response involves a person experiencing one or more of the following:

DESIRE

Desire is about feeling interested in someone sexually. For example, if a man or woman walked by, you may feel an attraction to that person or begin to imagine that person as a partner. You may think or fantasize about sex or feel frustrated because you aren't sexually satisfied. All of these feelings are about desire.

AROUSAL

Arousal is sexual excitement, which may be caused by touching, stroking, fantasizing, or seeing or hearing sexual sights and sounds. Your heartbeat, pulse, and blood pressure rise. Your breathing may become deeper and heavier. In both men and women, blood flows into the genitals as part of sexual arousal.

ORGASM

A person who reaches a sexual climax has an orgasm. For men and women, this means a rhythmic contraction of the genitals, which causes intense, pleasurable feelings throughout the body. Overall, you may feel satisfaction, pleasure, and gratification.


RESOLUTION

Resolution is when the body calms down and is no longer excited. Your heartbeat, pulse, and blood pressure return to normal, and blood drains from the genital area. Resolution happens rapidly after an orgasm. If a person doesn't have an orgasm, resolution happens eventually but just takes longer.

Sexuality...

Sexuality basically means where your sexual attractions lie. Who and what you are attracted to. It also defines what turns you off sexually. It is usually something that you do not choose, however you can definitely experiment with things along the way to test what you like and what you do not. You never know until you go.

Gender: all the ways people are (how they talk, speak, act, dress, behave, style themselves, etc.) that we relate to men, women, femininity, or masculinity; people can identify as male, female, neither gender, both gender, trans gender, etc., etc.- it's how they feel inside.

Sex: one's biological and physiological sex, as determined by their chromosomes, hormones, genitals, secondary sex characteristics like body hair, voice, fat distribution, etc..

Sexual orientation: the cumulative object(s) of one's sexual attractions.

Sexual behavior: all the sexual things one does; does NOT have to be in sync or in line with sexual orientation.

Kinsey Scale: scale that measures human sexual orientation from 0 (exclusively heterosexual) to 6 (exclusively homosexual) with gradations in between, based on one's sexual behavior and fantasies, up to that time.

Klein Sexual Orientation Grid: scale that measures human sexual orientation like the Kinsey Scale, but takes into account the past, present, ideal (future), sexual attraction, behavior, sexual fantasies, emotional preference, social preference, and the idea that people's sexuality can change.

Polyamory: the desire, practice, or acceptance of having more than one loving, intimate relationship at a time with the full knowledge and consent of everyone involved.

Monogamy: custom or condition of having only one mate.

Heterosexual: sexually attracted to the opposite sex.

Homosexual: sexually attracted to the same sex.

Bisexual: sexually attracted to both men and women.

Pansexual: sexually attracted to men, women, and transgender and transsexual people.

Omnisexual: often used interchangeably with 'pansexual'; potential sexual attraction to any and all things, sexuality that responds to ideas, concepts, objects, etc., etc..

Pomosexual: the "erotic reality beyond the boundaries of gender, separatism, and essentialist notions of sexual orientation." (pomosexuals do not identify with any essentially-defined sexual label, and it is used in reference to oneself as a protest against such labels.)

Asexual: no sexual attraction to anything (romantic attraction is possible, and though it often isn't, sexual desire may be present, but is directed at nothing; only tactile stimulation results in arousal, nothing mental).

Auto sexual: sexual attraction to oneself, one's own body.

Transsexual: dis concordant gender identity; feeling that one was born in the wrong body. May or may not be rectified with hormones and surgery.

Transgender(ed): having a non-binary gender identity; feeling not like a man or a woman in the way they are typically defined in our society; considering oneself neither genders, both, or a "third gender". They do not change their bodies with hormones or surgery.

Cisgender(ed): a non-trans individual; men who were physiologically male at birth, raised as boys, and who identify as men, and women who were physiologically female at birth, raised as girls, and who identify as women.

Transvestite: dresses in the clothing typically belonging to the opposite sex; may do so in private or public, for sexual arousal or not, from only certain articles of clothing, to full presentation of the opposite sex; they don't want to be the opposite sex full-time, however.

Cross-dresser: another term for 'transvestite', more commonly used and more recent and less medical.

Drag Queen/King: performers who act out exaggerations of gender stereotypes to the opposite sex; drag kings are women who perform exaggerated male characters; drag queens are men who do exaggerated female characters.

Bio Queen/King: performers who act out exaggerations of gender stereotypes to their own sex: bio kings are men who perform exaggerated male characters; bio queens are women do exaggerated female characters.

Hermaphrodite: antiquated term for those born with both sets of genitals or an ambiguous biological sex (obsolete, not used anymore).

Inter sex(ed): correct, modern term for those born with an inter sex condition (there are many possibilities: non-standard chromosomal compositions like XXXY, hormone deficiencies/intolerances, ambiguous genitals, etc., etc..).

Now where do you belong?

Metrosexual!

In the past the male role was to be a scruffy, hairy, and sweaty; the kind of grease monkey that really was found to be quite attractive by the gals in the 1950s.

However the days of being able to go without shaving for a week are history. These days society demands that we always look fashionable and our best. The term metrosexual was really coined by reality TV shows featuring gay actors who gave a make over and image transformation to straight males.

To be metrosexual does not mean you are homosexual. It simply means you are a well groomed, image conscious straight male, who fancies designer clothing and a day trip to the spa to get a manicure.

learn how to know if you are a metrosexual.

Things You’ll Need:

  • A mirror
  • Personal time
  • Female opinion
  • Gay opinion



Step1

Look at your wardrobe. A classic sign of being a metrosexual is to be label fanatic. Take a gander at your wardrobe. Are all of your clothes name brand? Do you have lots of hot and new fashions that cost a pretty penny? Are there days that go by where you change several times because you think you don’t look right?

Step2

Take a gander in the mirror. Is your hair flat ironed and well kept? Have you recently shaved and look well groomed overall?

Step3

Check underneath your fingernails. Are your nails fine and manicured? Do you frequently visit a day spa for a facial or body treatment?

Step4

Ask a female for their opinion. Girls have great instinct and can usually spot a metrosexual right away. Your best bet is to get an opinion from a female that you trust.

Step5

Ask any gay friends. Gay men have a total knack for spotting metrosexual males, as they were ones who coined the term in the first place. The best way to find out if you are is to ask any gay friends that you may know.

Step6

Get over it. Being metrosexual is not a bad thing. It means you are well said, well groomed, and well spoken. It means that you are image conscious and fashionably aware. It means that you have a sharp appearance and a lot to offer single women.


Remember metrosexual does not mean gay, they are just men who look good and want to look good, they are just guys who love being clean and well groomed where ever they go.

WARNING: New Virus....

this is to warn you about the new virus circulating the net, it is very deadly and computer experts have not found any cure or ways to contain it.

My computer had been infected and to my grief and horror.

My mouse was reduced to this....

.....OH MY GOD!!!!



I had my heart fixed and now i am ready to smile, to accept that life is not just fun but full of miseries and loneliness sometimes.

To be broken and hurt is part of growing up and there's nothing more we can do after that but to cry and feel the pain, but then after feeling the pain stand up once more and accept what life had taught you!

Be strong and be brave. A broken heart is nothing more but a broken heart, it will never heal if you keep on scratching it, but it will mend if you allow it.

There are a thousand and one ways to forget, only sometimes we are just to stubborn to accept and to really begin to forget.



extraordinary watch dogs



A girl was visiting her blond friend, who had acquired two new dogs, and asked her what their names were.

The blond responded by saying that one was named Rolex and one was named Timex.
Her friend said, 'Whoever heard of someone naming dogs like that?'
'HELLLOOOOOOO......,' answered the blond. 'They're watch dogs!'
