Is this the response after a Cry? Hush... and you will be alright

Happiness is transient, and so is un-happiness.

What is Happiness... i wonder? Is this going to be what it is for the rest of my life? Weeping in the pillow after a fight and a beer.

I dont like this feeling but seems that it's going to stay a while in me....

Ssssshhh... it's late at nght, time to catch up your sleep rather than thinking of it.... Sweet dreams

Lasse Lindh - Hush (Goblin soundtrack)

Through the endless daydream

I saw you on the way back

There I walked with you in my arms

Through the blurry darkness

Who’s veiling on the twilight

We’ve been far away from my fears

Somewhere else I’ll see you

Our days be like a blossom

Blooming all around you

so bright

By and by, I’ll miss you

and your laugh like a sunshine

Fading into shadow of tears

All around me is your light

With you, everything so shines

How come we’ll leave all behind?

Cause your love is falling on my heart

And I’m falling for you

Falling with broken wings again

Hush now, my angel

I will always be with you

In your pretty smile

in a glow of tears

Out across the frosty night

I’ll be there with you

Maybe someday

you’ll wake up alone without me

But don’t cry again,

I’ll be waiting here

Where the moon is on the rise

As the olden days

I could just go with you

between our time

Where they can’t find us

somehow

You could just come away

with me, out there

Where we could dream away

All day

Hush now, my angel

I will always be with you

In your pretty smile

in a glow of tears

Out across the frosty night

I’ll be there with you

Maybe you‘ll always breath in me

ever in my heart

All the little pieces of you

look how they shine above

Come away with me tonight

We’ll be dreaming away there

Maybe you‘ll always breath in me

ever in my heart

All the little pieces of you

look how they shine above

Come away with me tonight

We’ll be dreaming away there

Always

Marriage- should it be happily ever after...?

"Happily married, found the right one, love u forever...."

Really? Is marriage really like that?

How would you determine if you have found the right one for yourself?

Marriage to me is not happily ever after.. we would be too innocent to believe in fairy tales.

How long do you need to take to understand a person? You cant prepare or know any person long enough to be ready for it. I cant even understand my parents at times despite. staying with them over 30 yrs!

Best is not to get married. You dont need marriage to tie down a person if he or she doesnt love you anymore.

I am tired of trying to understand the man who sleeps next to me every night. I am tired havig to quarrel with him. I am tired of his uncouth behaviour. I am tired of his actions or words at times.

I miss the man who used to be less argumentative. I miss the man who shows me how much he loves me. I miss the man who smiles at me shyly. I miss the man who doesnt say much and only say things necessarily.

Its late, i am tired having to think so much...heading bed now

Song: Mariah Carey's FOREVER



Those days of love are gone
Our time is through
Still I burn on and on
All of my life
Only for you

From now
Until forever
And ever, my darling
Forever
You will always be the only one
You will always be the only one

As long as I shall live
I'll hold you dear
And I will reminisce
Of our love all through the years

From now
Until forever
And ever, my darling
Forever
You will always be the only one
You will always be the only one

If you should ever need me
Unfailingly, I will return to your arms
And unburden your heart
And if you should remember
That we belong together
Never be ashamed
Call my name
Tell me I'm the one you treasure

Forever
And ever, my darling
Forever
You will always be the only one yes
You will always be the only one oh baby
You will always be the only one

Forever (forever)
You will always be the only one
Forever (forever)
You will always be the only one
Forever (forever)
You will always be the only one
Forever (forever)
You will always be the only one
Forever (forever)
You will always be the only one
Forever (forever)
You will always be the only one

The Five Languages of Love

Have you heard of The Five Languages of Love by Dr Gary Chapman?
Each of us have specific ways of knowing that we are loved, so how can you determine what are the ways to show your love ones that you love her? Take this 30 sec quiz to understand what are your languages of love and what's your partners's languages of love, in order to speak the same language. I have known mine, you gotta know yours too!

http://www.fivelovelanguages.com/30sec.html#love

1) Words of Affirmation
Mark Twain once said “I can live for two months on a good compliment.” Verbal appreciation speaks powerfully to persons whose primary Love Language is “Words of Affirmation.” Simple statements, such as, “You look great in that suit,” or “You must be the best baker in the world! I love your oatmeal cookies,” are sometimes all a person needs to hear to feel loved.

Aside from verbal compliments, another way to communicate through “Words of Affirmation” is to offer encouragement. Here are some examples: reinforcing a difficult decision; calling attention to progress made on a current project; acknowledging a person’s unique perspective on an important topic. If a loved one listens for “Words of Affirmation,” offering encouragement will help him or her to overcome insecurities and develop greater confidence.

2) Quality Time
Quality time is more than mere proximity. It’s about focusing all your energy on your mate. A husband watching sports while talking to his wife is NOT quality time. Unless all of your attention is focused on your mate, even an intimate dinner for two can come and go without a minute of quality time being shared.

Quality conversation is very important in a healthy relationship. It involves sharing experiences, thoughts, feelings and desires in a friendly, uninterrupted context. A good mate will not only listen, but offer advice and respond to assure their mate they are truly listening. Many mates don’t expect you to solve their problems. They need a sympathetic listener.

An important aspect of quality conversation is self-revelation. In order for you to communicate with your mate, you must also be in tune with your inner emotions. It is only when you understand your emotions and inner feelings will you then be able to share quality conversation, and quality time with your mate.

Quality activities are a very important part of quality time. Many mates feel most loved when they spend physical time together, doing activities that they love to do. Spending time together will bring a couple closer, and, in the years to come, will fill up a memory bank that you can reminisce about in the future.Whether it’s sitting on the couch and having a brief conversation or playing together in a tennis league, quality time is a love language that is shared by many. Setting aside focused time with your mate will ensure a happy marriage.

3) Receiving Gifts
Some mates respond well to visual symbols of love. If you speak this love language, you are more likely to treasure any gift as an expression of love and devotion. People who speak this love language often feel that a lack of gifts represents a lack of love from their mate. Luckily, this love language is one of the easiest to learn.

If you want to become an effective gift giver, many mates will have to learn to change their attitude about money. If you are naturally a spender, you will have no trouble buying gifts for your mate. However, a person who is used to investing and saving their money may have a tough time adjusting to the concept of spending money as an expression of love. These people must understand that you are investing the money not in gifts, but in deepening your relationship with your mate.

The gift of self is an important symbol of love. Sometimes all your mate desires is for someone to be there for them, going through the same trials and experiencing the same things. Your body can become a very powerful physical symbol of love.
These gifts need not to come every day, or even every week. They don’t even need to cost a lot of money. Free, frequent, expensive, or rare, if your mate relates to the language of receiving gifts, any visible sign of your love will leave them feeling happy and secure in your relationship.

4) Acts of Service
Sometimes simple chores around the house can be an undeniable expression of love. Even simple things like laundry and taking out the trash require some form of planning, time, effort, and energy. .

Very often, both pairs in a couple will speak to the Acts of Service Language. However, it is very important to understand what acts of service your mate most appreciates. Even though couples are helping each other around the house, couples will still fight because the are unknowingly communicating with each other in two different dialects. For example, a wife may spend her day washing the cars and walking the dog, but if her husband feels that laundry and dishes are a superior necessity, he may feel unloved, despite the fact that his wife did many other chores throughout the day. It is important to learn your mate’s dialect and work hard to understand what acts of service will show your love.

It is important to do these acts of service out of love and not obligation. A mate who does chores and helps out around the house out of guilt or fear will inevitably not be speaking a language of love, but a language of resentment. It’s important to perform these acts out of the kindness of your heart.

Demonstrating the acts of service can mean stepping out of the stereotypes. Acts of service require both mates to humble themselves into doing some chores and services that aren’t usually expected from their gender. However, these little sacrifices will mean the world to your mate, and will ensure a happy relationship.

5) Physical Touch
Many mates feel the most loved when they receive physical contact from their partner. For a mate who speaks this love language loudly, physical touch can make or break the relationship.
Sexual intercourse makes many mates feel secure and loved in a marriage. However, it is only one dialect of physical touch. Many parts of the body are extremely sensitive to stimulation. It is important to discover how your partner not only physically responds but also psychologically responds to these touches.

It is important to learn how your mate speaks the physical touch language. Some touches are irritating and uncomfortable for your mate. Take the time to learn the touches your mate likes. They can be big acts, such as back massages or lovemaking, or little acts such as touches on the cheek or a hand on the shoulder. It’s important to learn how your mate responds to touch. That is how you will make the most of this love language.

All marriages will experience crisis. In these cases, physical touch is very important. In a crisis situation, a hug can communicate an immense amount of love for that person. A person whose primary love language is physical touch would much rather have you hold them and be silent than offer any advice.

It is important to remember that this love language is different for everyone. What type of touch makes you feel secure is not necessarily what will make your partner happy. It is important to learn each other’s dialects. That way you can make the most of your hugging, kissing, and other physical contacts.

Blood Donation @ HSA

Time: 3pm
Where: Outram Road, HSA Building

Blood donation was fast and quick, didnt expect my blood to flow so smoothly, unlike the last time. *ehem* In case some people doesnt know, please do not donate blood when you are at that period of the month. Believe me, the process of the blood donation will be extremely slow, despite you know your heart pumps as fast... haha..

Ok enough, this is so embarrassing.

I am just telling it out, just to prevent any of my blur friends to face the same situation. Anyway, this time round it's different. I believe i have not been for it for quite some time, I was pretty worried and scared within. I also didnt expect that staple to be more painful than that needle, after all, the size of the valve seems bigger than the staple thingy, but the first one gives a minor pain, to me at least. =P

PS: Hey guys, time for some blood donation lah!
