Uncategorized I would be very busy this weekend, that’s why I am leaving you with an early Happy Weekend greeting. Hope you all have a good one! Before we bask to another hectic week ahead, here’s leaving you some beautiful advices which a good friend sent me over the email.
1. Pray
2. Go to bed on time.
3. Get up on time so you can start the day unrushed.
4. Say No to projects that won’t fit into your time schedule, or that will compromise your mental health.
5. Delegate tasks to capable others.
6. Simplify and unclutter your life.
7. Less is more. (Although one is often not enough, two are often too many.)
8. Allow extra time to do things and to get to places.
9. Pace yourself. Spread out big changes and difficult projects over time; don’t lump the hard things all together.
10. Take one day at a time.
11. Separate worries from concerns . If a situation is a concern, find out what God would have you do and let go of the anxiety . If you can’t do anything about a situation, forget it.
12. Live within your budget; don’t use credit cards for ordinary purchases.
13. Have backups; an extra car key in your wallet, an extra house key buried in the garden, extra stamps, etc.
14. K.M.S. (Keep Mouth Shut). This single piece of advice can prevent an enormous amount of trouble..
15. Do something for the Kid in You everyday.
16. Carry a Bible with you to read while waiting in line.
17. Get enough rest
18. Eat right.
19 Get organized so everything has its place.
20. Listen to a tape while driving that can help improve your quality of life.
21. Write down thoughts and inspirations.
22. Every day, find time to be alone.
23. Having problems? Talk to God on the spot. Try to nip small problems in the bud. Don’t wait until it’s time to go to bed to try and pray.
24. Make friends with Godly people.
25. Keep a folder of favorite scriptures on hand.
26. Remember that the shortest bridge between despair and hope is often a good ‘Thank you Jesus .
27. Laugh.
28. Laugh some more!
29. Take your work seriously, but not yourself at all.
30. Develop a forgiving attitude (most people are doing the best they can).
31. Be kind to unkind people (they probably need it the most).
32. Sit on your ego
33 Talk less; listen more.
34. Slow down.
35. Remind yourself that you are not the general manager of the universe.
36 Every night before bed, think of one thing you’re grateful for that you’ve never been grateful for before.
GOD HAS A WAY OF TURNING THINGS AROUND FOR YOU.
‘If God is for us, who can be against us?’
(Romans8:31)

Uncategorized I had a good time catching up with my Russian classmate turned friend yesterday. We were laughing so hard as she tells me her tales on her driving lessons. Then, we bumped into one of our professors. She is our favorite professor to date. She came to ask us if we opted to do our remaining quarter courses online or in-campus. You see, it does not really matter how you earned your degree or if you went to online colleges or universities who only offer in-campus classes. The most important factor is that you are able to complete the degree, now, that is something to be very proud of.

Wikipedia 
So what is that picture about? Is it for real?
Yes peeps, it is! Apparently, Rob Matthews created that 5000-page Wikipedia which he is planning to sell. It includes 400 articles and still adding. However, here’s a little trivia. Most universities in the United States do not accept Wikipedia as their students’ reference most especially the Graduate school. My University for instance will give us a deduction if we use Wikipedia as one of our researches’ references. I guess because not all information here are verified.
And this book is probably just a small portion of what is in the online site of Wikipedia.

Indoor fireworks. 
When I saw this product at Japan Trend Shop I was really amazed, who wouldn’t, when you talk about having fireworks in the comforts of your own home . Beat that!This product will be widely available in August but you can pre-order now.
From Sega Toys, the Uchiage Hanabi is a fireworks projector that uses 5 customizable projection lenses to blast moving fireworks all over your walls and ceiling. It even tracks from launch to explosion, so you can watch it just like a real show.
Using the included projection plates, you can make a full fireworks show, complete with sounds, that is never rained out and can be shown year round. In addition, you can even create your own fireworks by drawing on special plates. Anything is possible!
The unit itself is stylish and looks great in any room.
