Information

Unhappiness in relationships, according to Dr. Gary Chapman, is often due to the fact that we speak different love languages. Sometimes we don't understand our partner's requirements, or even our own. We all have a "love tank" that needs to be filled in order for us to express love to others, but there are different means by which our tank can be filled, and there are different ways that we can express love to others.

Take the quiz

Significance

SIGNIFICANCE - The Leadership Files

Quote - ' When someone does something well, applaud! You will make two people happy.' - Samuel Goldwyn

You're going to love this;

Possibly the greatest ability all of us have is giving significance to others.

One small spark of recognition can ignite a flame of creativity and drive that releases a person into a collision with destiny.

When you meet someone, anyone, include the 'wow' factor.

Be amazed at their life.

Notice their accomplishments with praise.

Tell others how incredible they are.

Thank them for helping you.

Ask them how they do what they do.

Let them teach you something.

We may have just one chance to change a person's life.

Don't miss your chance today.

Stepping out with you,
Phil Pringle
Russian woman's 12th baby weighs in at 7.75 kg
Wed Sep 26, 10:16 AM ET

A Siberian woman who gave birth to her 12th child -- doing more than her fair share to stem Russia's population decline -- was stunned to find that little Nadia weighed in at a massive 7.75 kg (17.1 lb).

Nadia was delivered by caesarean section in the local maternity hospital in the Altai region on September 17, joining eight sisters and three brothers, a local reporter said.

"We were all simply in shock," said Nadia's mother, Tatyana Barabanova, 43. "What did the father say? He couldn't say a thing -- he just stood there blinking."

"I ate everything, we don't have the money for special foods so I just ate potatoes, noodles and tomatoes," she told the reporter, adding that all her previous babies had weighed more than 5 kg.

The Guinness World Records lists a 10.2 kg baby boy born in Italy in 1955, and a 10.8 kg baby boy who was born in the United States in 1879 but died 11 hours later.

The average weight for most healthy newborn babies is around 3.2 kg (7.06 lb), according to World Health Organisation figures.

And I thought I was heavy being born at 4.2 kg, 19 years and 11 months ago today. =D

Did u know that 'Umbrella' won the Monster Single of the Year at the MTV Video Music Awards 2007?



Did u know that she wore an absolutely beautiful HOT PINK gown to the event? And she totally stood out from the other stars by the way.


Did u know that is she ONLY 19 years old?

I really hope that she will take good care of herself & not end up like Britney Spears and Lindsay Lohan! (for the uniformed, Britney & Lindsay had to go rehab for taking drugs. And the latter is charged for drink-driving, not once but twice!)

Kill the Ugly Side

Well, I wouldn't exactly say that I had a great day today. First of all, Agnes, my 'O' Level student chased me out of her house 45 mins into tuition citing, "I got no mood to study". At night, my Pri 1 student, Gabriel, threw a tantrum for no apparent reason, kicked (literally kicked me!), shouted and yelled "I don't want to do!" time and time again. But thankfully, he finally cooled down after 35 mins. Gosh, thank God it was 35 mins and not an hour!

Later, his sweet side appeared and I finally saw smiles on his face. Gabriel is really a cute, handsome and smart boy you know? Despite his bad behaviors and all... He's studying in Pei Hua Pri School, one of the top pri schs in Singapore. He has an absolute love for animals and he knows more about them than I do and he is only 7 years old! He told me about the Mandrill,a species of monkeys, of which the female Mandrills will look for the male that is the brightest in color (it actually signifies strength) to mate. He also plays the piano well and has a thirst for knowledge. Sometimes, he would very sweetly give me a hug before I leave...

Thinking about Gabriel led me to think about how every single person, no matter how many weaknesses, character flaws, bad attitudes one may have, therein lies a beautiful person - a person with every ability to be good, to do good, with strengths and capabilities, to be a blessing to the people around. The ugly side however, is what some people will choose to show. Truth be told, I hate the ugly side of humanity. Sometimes when I witness my ugly side, I go: '' Oh my gosh, just what do you think you're doing!? " The ugly side should really not surface because when it does, damages are usually done to the people around. Instead, we should all let that nice, beautiful person come out. Kill the ugly side I say, bury it, and don't allow it to see the light of day because when it does, it actually destroys another and may in turn lead to them manifesting their ugliness and the cycle continues.

What a happy,beautiful world we'll be living in, if only people would be more considerate of how their words, actions and attitudes will affect the people around.
Gra gra, I'm still awake at this ungodly hour. I haven seen Val for more than 2 weeks and I finally got to spend time with her. Read all about it at http://vivacious-me.blogspot.com/

Haha. I might just blog about it, at a less ungodly hr. Haha.

Sleeping now now now.

Did u know that Jack Neo blogs!? I found his blog through Laozhabor's blog. I dunno her real name, that's the nickname that she goes by! She's the actress who acted as Fann Wong's mother in Just Follow Law. Can u believe it!? I think she is probably in her 50s or 60s and she blogs! In English! *Gapes* Amazing! And her blog has won awards like Best of Blogs May, June, etc! Haha. I think it'll be really cool if I blog when I'm still a grandmother. My grandchildren would love me. Lol.

I also randomly found the song Beautiful Girl sang by Jojo! (2nd track on my Imeem playlist) NICE! :)

I'm going for a trial work out session at Slender Shapes later. Wonder how it'll turn out. Then it's off to tutoring 4 students back to back from 3.30 to 9.30pm. :)

Gone

Sun has a new song, Gone. It is a soothing ballad that really reached out to me the first time I heard it . It's about how someone you hold dear to walks away no matter what you could have done because in their heart, they've already made the decision to leave.

A few people whom I treasured have walked out of my life and of course when it happened, it broke my heart. But like the song says, "Even if I cry, you'll still be gone". It didn't matter to them how I would have felt when they left because they didn't think about how leaving would devastate me. Even if they did, they still left anyway...

I've long decided to be a committed and loyal person and friend. Never will I walk away. Like the way Rihanna puts it in Umbrella, "I'mma stick it out till the end".

If you have walked away from my life, from being my friend and you are reading this now, I want you to know that I cried when you did . . . but I've forgiven you for walking away. My only hope is that one day . . . you will come back.

Gone – Sun Ho

I couldn’t watch as you just walked away
Without a smile
Without a word to say
And here I thought that things were well today
But it doesn’t even matter anyway

Even if I cry,
You’ll still be gone
Even if I change today forever

Even if I lie,
You’ll still be gone
Even if I’m someone else,
You’ll still be gone

I always knew that things would end this way
Without a smile
Without a word to say
I’m sorry for the mistake I made that day
But it doesn’t even matter anyway

Natasya and I posing with the present



They made a card for me!! Yeah I know, the pic quality is bad. :(



Natasya drew the girl on the left i mean right lol. She's such an artist eh? :)

I was so touched to receive such a lovely gift from them. They even printed out my pic from Friendster and pasted it on the card! Here's what they wrote:

Natasya: "Wendy, you are a teacher that make my English improve. You also quite fun when you teach us. But the homework that you give is a lot. "

Melissa: " Teacher . . . You impart knowledge to us. Your hidden love and care is always there. Thank you! =) "

Awwww.... I know. AREN'T THEY JUST SO SWEET???

Love this 2 gals. It is such a joy to tutor them. :)

Lyrics

I got bored with listening to the tracks on my Imeen playlist so I added some new ones and reorganised it. Hope u're enjoying the music like I am! =D

I love songs that have a groovy beat to them, which I'll naturally dance to especially those with lyrics that I can relate to or just simply like. Here are some of those! :

Wasted - Carrie Underwood

Standing at the back door she tried to make it fast
One tear hit the hardwood, it fell like broken glass
She said sometimes love slips away
And you just can’t get it back lets face it
For one split second she almost turned around
But that would be like pouring raindrops back into a cloud
So she took another step and said
I see the way out and i’m gonna take it

I don’t wanna spend my life jaded, waiting
To wake up one day and find
That I let all of these years go by wasted
I don’t wanna keep on wishing, missing
The still of the morning, the color of the night
I ain’t spending no more time wasted

Stanger - Hillary Duff

There's no kindness in your eyes
The way you look at me, it's just not right
I can tell what's going on this time
There's a stranger in my life
You're not the person that I once knew

China Wine - Sun Ho

Me wanna see pure lighta!

I'm gonna dance my problems away!

Throw on my dancing shoes
I've got nothing to lose
Tonight I'm gonna hit the night life
And party away

Give It To Me - Timberland Featuring Nelly Furtado & Justin Timberlake

If you see us in the club we'll be acting real nice
If you see us on the floor you'll be watchin all night
We ain't here to hurt nobody
So give it to me give it to me give it to me
Wanna see you work your body
So give it to me give it to me give it to me


Umbrella - Rihanna

When the sun shines
We’ll shine together
Told you I'll be here forever
Said I'll always be your friend
Took an oath
I'mma stick it out 'till the end
Now that it's raining more than ever
Know that we still have each other
You can stand under my Umbrella . . .

These fancy things,will never come in between
You're part of my entity
Here for Infinity
When the war has took it's part
When the world has dealt it's cards
If the hand is hard
Together we'll mend your heart

You can run into my arms
It's okay don't be alarmed
(Come into me)
(There's no distance in between our love)
So gonna let the rain pour
I'll be all you need and more


What You Waiting For? - Gwen Stefani

Tick-tock, tick-tock (x4)

Like a cat in heat, stuck in a moving car
A scary conversation, shut my eyes, can't find the brake
What if they say that you're a climber
Naturally, I'm worried if I do it alone
Who really cares, cause it's your life
You never know, it could be great
Take a chance cause you might grow
Oh, ah, oh

What you waiting
What you waiting
What you waiting
What you waiting
What you waiting for
(x2)

Like an echo pedal, you're repeating yourself
You know it all by heart
Why are you standing in one place
Born to blossom, bloom to perish
Your moment will run out
Cause of your sex chromosome
I know it's so messed up, how our society all thinks (for sure)
Life is short, you're capable
Oh, ah, oh

Look at your watch now
You're still a super hot female
You got your million-dollar contract
And they're all waiting for your hot track


What I've Done - Linkin Park

So let mercy come,
And wash away…

What I’ve done
I’ll face myself,
To cross out what I’ve become.
Erase myself,
And let go of what I’ve done.

For what I’ve done
I'll start again,
And whatever pain may come.
Today this ends,
I’m forgiving what I’ve done.


Shadow Of the Day - Linkin Park

I close both locks below the window.
I close both blinds and turn away.
Sometimes solutions aren't so simple.
Sometimes goodbye's the only way.

And the sun will set for you,
The sun will set for you.
And the shadow of the day,
Will embrace the world in grey,
And the sun will set for you.


Unwritten - Natasha Bedingfield

I break tradition, sometimes my tries, are outside the lines
We've been conditioned to not make mistakes, but I can't live that way

Staring at the blank page before you
Open up the dirty window
Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find

Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your inhibitions
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins

The rest is still unwritten

You Are Rocky Road Ice Cream



Unpredictable and wild, you know how to have fun. You're also a trendsetter who takes risks with new things. You know about the latest and greatest - and may have invented it!

You are most compatible with vanilla ice cream.



You Are 24% Emo



You're definitely not emo, but you do understand emo people a little. You are introspective, but not to the point of driving yourself crazy.


LOL. Jamie and Adeline have got to take this quiz! Let me know yr Emo %!! Haha.


You Are Mostly Secure



In general, you feel confident and together.
But the wrong thing can happen, and all of a sudden, you're not feeling so secure.

Luckily, your insecurities don't last long... at least, not usually.

So the next time you're feeling insecure, try to snap out of it - and remember the confident woman you are!




You Are Pretty Happy Being Single



You have a full, fun life. And you definitely don't need love to be content.

Of course, being single can get you down a little. Especially when you've been single for a while.But you know how to be patient and wait for the right person. You're life is too good to settle for anything!



Your Ideal Hairstyle:


Curly Bob

Seriously?? Haha.

You Are A Woman!



Congratulations, you've made it to adulthood.
You're emotionally mature, responsible, and unlikely to act out. You accept that life is hard - and do your best to keep things upbeat.

This makes you the perfect girlfriend... or even wife!


Hee hee hee. :D


Your Inner Pop Princess Is Hilary Duff


"I'm shedding, shedding every color. Trying to find a pigment of truth beneath my skin."

You're sweet and cute, but a little more complex than that.


Awww... =)
