Eeeeeek, it's Friday The 13th!!!

wow... it totally escaped me that it is Friday the 13th once more.... was just reminded by someone posting about it on Facebook.... so take note all... be extra careful... be wary or strangers bearing gifts... and even friends and lovers being extra nice...

They Just Might Swallow You Whole!!!

Happy Friday All!!!

just another rainy day in Taipei for me....  working... working... and working....  Still am SMILING as life is still good - for the most part....   hardships come and go... truly part of life....  but really, anywhere you turn to - if you look hard enough - you will see something to SMILE about... like this:

...saw this at a craft studio I always walk by....

Happy April Fool's Day!

First of APRIL - and I found this statement from the Dalai Lama especially fitting to start the month with.... in a way, for most of us - everyday is April Fool's Day...

======================
The Dalai Lama, when asked what surprised him most about humanity, he said: “Man, Because he sacrifices his health in order to make money. Then he sacrifices money to recuperate his health. And then he is so anxious about the future that he does not enjoy the present; the result being that he does not live in the present or the future; he lives as if he is never going to die, and then dies having never really lived.”
==================

AGREE or DISAGREE???

a little break here, a little break there....

another Friday is upon us... another week over.... sometimes I really wonder where the time goes.... not just me but seems like everyone else that knows me well enough... they wonder how I fill my days up... what ould I possibly busy myself with all day long - each and every passing day....

hahahahaha as if it's not obvious enough - BLOGGING, and the INTERNET, of course!!! hahahaha just kidding - better correct myself or else, people might truly believe this and think that I do not ahve a life....

well, I do not think anyone would truly understand... working for yourself, at home, truly is even more hectic and time consuming than anyone could possibly tell you.... between doing all the thinhgs you need to do to take care of biz (following up on orders; corresponding with people: factory, companies, customers; billing, processing and shipping orders, etc..) one needs to attend to house matters as you see it around you - so there is no escaping.... then you are the one delegated to take care of all chores (laundry, ironing, cleaning) and errands (post office, bank, grocery, etc...) as your time is more flexible....

so what if I take moments here and there to check my FB account and my BLOG... and even an occassional YOU TUBE... these, as well as taking a walk by the river.... or to the book shop...; or coffee with Juliana (the only one I know in TAIWAN who can relate to this post am sure - hahahahaha) are the only things that breaks the monotony of my days and keep me sane.... they do envigorate and refresh me to face more challenges that comes my way.... TRULY!!!

so at the end of the day, contrary to everyone else's belief, you are tired... and you feel that you ahve accomplished a lot....i mean "bringing home the bacon and still, frying it in a pan " is no small feat.... I SALUTE ALL OF YOU, HOUSEWIVES & HOUSE HUSBANDS OF THE WORLD.... you have my RESPECT & ADMIRATION!

and speaking of breaks here and there - here's something I just got out of YOU TUBE... it is Stupid, mindless, insane & definitely Hilarious - a good one for this entry's Fridae Funnees

and a couple more - just for laughs....

"For all those men who say,'why buy the cow when you can get the milk free'. Here's an update for you! Nowadays 80% of women are against marriage, why? Because women realize it's not worth buying an entire pig just to get a little sausage!!!! "

This Photo Cracks Me Up whenever I come across it...Oh Well... Go Figure!

HAPPY FRIDAY ALL!!!

weThink, weShare: 7 Types of Romantic Love

HECK!!! am not even one of the 7 TYPES.... what to do????

How About You - can you pick out which one you are? would you DARE to admit?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

==================================================

1. HOPEFUL OR ESCAPIST LOVE: When we fall in "love" (or something like it) because we imagine that the person we've fallen for will transform our lives, figuratively--in the sense of relieving our existential or psychological suffering--but often literally as well.

2. SAVIOR-COMPLEX LOVE: When we fall in "love" (or something like it) because we think that we can "save" the love object. Kind of the flip-side of escapist love.

3. SELF-LOATHING LOVE: When we fall in "love" (or something like it) because the other person treats us just as badly or as negligently as we think we deserve. (An extreme example of this would be a relationship where some kind of abuse--emotional, vituperative, physical--occurs frequently.) This is roughly the opposite of narcissistic love.

4. REDEMPTIVE LOVE: When we fall in "love" (or something like it) because we think the love object will redeem us--that his love will mean that our own lives are worthy or meaningful. Similar to escapist love, but maybe a bit more extreme, and less concerned with any literal transformation. (Cf. Dostoevsky.)

5. PRACTICAL LOVE: When we fall in "love" (or something like it) because we recognize that the other person has similar values and similar life goals, and we think that he or she can help us attain them.

6. ANATOMICAL LOVE: When we fall in love (or something like it) because the love object is so different, so exotic. He or she does things so differently from the way we do things that we are mesmerized and captivated. A.k.a.: the love that happens when "opposites attract." The opposite of narcissistic love.

7. NARCISSISTIC LOVE: When we fall in love (or something like it) because we see our own favorite qualities in the love object.

Randomness on the 1st morning of 2010!!

-which also happens to be Friday = "fridae funnees"!!! Here's to a GREAT 2010 for Us All!!!

=========================

Dear Lord, So far this year I've done well.I haven't gossiped, I haven't lost my temper, I haven't been greedy, grumpy, nasty, selfish, or overindulgent. I'm very thankful for that. But in a few minutes, Lord, I'm going to get out of bed, and from then on I'm probably going to need a lot more help. Amen.

=========================

God, grant me the senility to forget the people I never liked anyway,

The good fortune to run into the ones that I do,

And the eyesight to tell the difference

==========================
