I was reading my friend's blog and he mention about his friend telling him that her love life has become a cycle. Actually I think every human tends to go into some kind of cycle after awhile. Monday to Friday, go to work. Saturday is rest at home. Sunday is grocery shopping time. Then is back to work on a Monday again.
Then he went on to introduce this site which is managed by a lady who does some study on Love and Marriage (in my humble opinion). The article is interesting especially the list of “Signs of a healthy relationship” and “Signs of an unhealthy relationship”. However I will not post these signs because I don’t think one should remember the list. There is no hard and fast rule on relationship matters. If the signs appear for an unhealthy relationship, it does not mean your relationship is indeed unhealthy and vice versa.
So maybe these signs can check your relationship with your friends and family too. And maybe you can expand the list further or customised it personally.
After seeing the new feature of applying my labels to my posts, I decided to label all my posts. I thought 156 posts should not take me too long. Unfortunately, I am so wrong. It took me more than an hour to finish labelling. And in between, I created new labels, and decided to cross label some articles because they seem to fit in both labels. And those that I am unable to label, I just termed them as my nonsensical musings. Ok, I termed them musings for short “p
Another label I created is called "Singapore". Because I was reading in 我报 and a writer commented that Singaporeans do not like to use Singapore for research. Sad right. Imagine if you are a Singaporean but you wish to research on other countries. Sometimes I find it funny when I read about Singapore from a non-Singaporean's articles. So decided to have this label to invoke myself to write more about my hometown.
It had been fun trying to apply the labels. And the search feature helps a lot. It works like Gmail’s search where you can search the contents for a particular word. Thank goodness for this search feature. In fact searching is the most frequent activity a person does in the internet. If you want to go to a website, majority of the person will go to a search engine e.g. Google, type the website name e.g. Amazon, and search. Funny you may think, but there are statistics to prove it. Those who study human-computer interaction will know about it.
Ok back to work after I post one more picture…
There are another 2 more articles that left a deep impression on me.
One was regarding the sex education for the young in
The other article is卓炜峰’s article on 为什么我要谈恋爱？His viewpoint is interesting because he believes there is no need for dating. Or rather he feels that he should only start dating after marriage. Then nobody will complain that marriage is the graveyard of love. Besides he feels that one should not only preserve the physical aspects (i.e. virginity) but also the emotional aspects (i.e. feelings) to the person he intends to spend the entire lifetime with. Is a very idealist view but if one can try out this idea, why not? After all, the main benefit is you will only spend on the one worth spending on.
With regards to that special viewpoint, my friend has an interesting viewpoint on marriage too. Usually we will go R.O.M first then hold traditional marriage. But he chose to hold the traditional marriage, after which they went R.O.M to REGISTER his marriage. After he told me his logic, I find it is indeed logical too.
Oh and thanks to 卓炜峰, I get to learn a new word 莞尔 which means smile. When I saw this word, somehow i feel like smiling and hopes to remember this word for life. That is the miracle of Chinese words, the reason why I love and hate them.

无语's comics never fails to be thought-provoking. If I have half his talent, I would die in peace. Many years ago, I had wanted to use drawing for a certain topic. But I was unable to draw out my concept. And times goes by, my ideas floated by me. What is left are but photos.
Anyway I have side-tracked, back to the topic of his comic. The single word “一”. Yesterday while watching the last episode of 金牌冰人, the matchmaker couple also wrote a “一”字. I can’t exactly remember what they say, but is to signify their deep love. It is a simple and yet profound word.
Surprisingly, 无语 had also used this “一”字. His story was that he saw a shooting star that drew a “一”字. He finds that star innocent, bright and simple. Subconsciously, I think he wishes for things to be simpler at times too. And subconsciously, I have the same wish too.
Life is too complicated at times. Sometimes we make our own life complicated. Other times, we don’t want to grow up so we find life complicated. Actually whether life is complicated or not, it really depends on your AQ. If your AQ is high, if you do not give up easily, if you don’t run away at every tribulation, you should be able to live a peaceful life.
Yesterday, the matchmaker couple did not run away from their tribulation. They had decided that they wish to be together and stuck with it. That is only why they are able to solve their problem. Some would say this is just a story plot, but life is also a story plot at times.
Seasons change,
People change,
Feelings change,
Forever, seems so far away.

Author’s comment:
The instructor mentioned that usually CPR does not manage to revive the victim. And that there is a possibility that while administering CPR, the person might suffer from broken ribs. And it might be fatal if the rib ruptured a vital organ e.g. the lung. Somehow this seems like a depressing news.
Most heart attacks involve discomfort in the center of the chest that lasts more than a few minutes, or that goes away and comes back. It can feel like uncomfortable pressure, squeezing, fullness or pain. May occur with or without chest discomfort. These may include breaking out in a cold sweat, nausea or lightheadedness |
