Men, Women and Vampire!

As a man it’s my duty to express my concern following recent incident where a man age 22 jumped to his death from 11^th floor after he was left heartbroken by a girl..My message to all ladies out there, when you choose your boyfriend or husband please be aware of his mental health before you jump into a relationship. Some man(soft+fragile+immature+sissy = Edward Cullen vampire) can’t take it every time they faced a failed relationship whereas some men are born to be Casanova. There are a lot of traits in man that women should take notice. The main and obvious characteristic is his EGO.  A man is one person who has great ego that he cannot let go off. Very rarely you would see a man possess no ego in him. Traits like strong male ego and anger are something women should be aware of. These types of men, women should never find love with.

            There are different types of men, women fall for. It is either due to the fancy life the man leads or simply his great personality. The hidden types of men are now revealed below to make you well known about these men who will break your heart and will never keep you happy. Let me reveal magician’s biggest secret the secret of finding your man. These dating tips will help you learn about these types of men listed, find love with the man you think is well suited with your characteristics.

1.Player – The men who are players can never be trusted. These guys top the charts of flirting with other women even though they have a stunningly hot girlfriend. If you are a sensitive woman, make sure you never find love with a guy who is a player. This is the most important dating tips.

2.Mama's Boy – A dangerous type of man. No doubt we all love our mothers. But, there are a few men who cannot spend their life without their mother being by their side all the time. These men make their mothers the top priority in life leaving behind their partner without giving her time and affection. Men who love their mothers unconditionally, cause a great hindrance in a relationship. Therefore, women should be wise not fall for men like this.

3.Possessive man – Being possessive over your girlfriend is normal and fine. But, being over possessive is dangerous. Women should never find love with men who are extremely possessive as it could lead to you not having a free life. Being over possessive brings in insecurity and lack of faith and honesty in the relationship.

4.Party Boy – Partying is no harm, but over doing it is bad for the relationship. Here comes in no time for each other if your man is with his pals partying the whole night long. Women should never find love with men who are party animals. It would be best if you let him be a single and have fun on his own, rather than getting your heart broken.

Women should never fall in love with these types of men. But the reality is a woman has to kiss lots of ugly frog before they can find their price charming. Keep these dating tips in mind next time you want to find someone you’re attracted to.

I think this guy here is the exception, regardless of how many rules he bent and broke women can’t still get enough of him..move away Edward Cullen vampire!

Hello there..Christmas is around the corner and what’s your plan this year? Any idea what your gift to your loved ones? Well I guess there is a wide range of gift that you can choose from. Again I’m giving some new and applicable gift that you should try. Forget about the same old tricks and surprise gifts that you’ve been watching in movies. Make way to the hottest and innovative gifts this year..

1. Bottle opener remote – nothing is more refreshing than watching tv/movies with your loved ones while having a cold beer and a bottle opener-cum-remote control in your grip.. J

2. Car swivel chair – ok, your loved one might be old but don’t compromise with his/her comfort. Get this swivel chair equipped in your car..

Holiday like no other

Finally we are about to reach the end of (mostly) fantastic year 2010. It feels like yesterday I celebrated New Year with fireworks and now the cycle has come back again. It is just amazing how time flies by in a blink of an eye. Perhaps all of us had made the most out of this year. Be it in works, be it in love life, be it in studies and so forth.  I myself had used all of those times to improve myself, to grow wiser and become a decent human being.

In terms of work, currently am still enjoying my career and hopefully I won’t burn out next year. After all of the high and low, I’m looking forward to spending my holiday like no other..but sadly, I didn’t. It has been almost 3 weeks since my (supposedly) holiday started and yet, I’m still working like other people. Counting the day left, I might have 2 weeks of holiday till the end of the year. That’s the shortest holiday I’ve ever been and I’m FREAKIN’ LOVIN’ it!! NO hesitation saying that.

As I work my a** out during my HOLIDAY, people who are supposed to work didn’t turn up for work, coming late, working half day(sometimes not even half day) or making all sorts of excuses not to work(what a lowly class). Alright, I can choose not to come back and enjoy my deservedly holiday but I sacrifice my time, money and holiday just to help out a bit but to see the ‘management team’ (they are suppose to work) coming just to shake and keep their b**t warm is so unacceptable. Come on, I’m working like a slave and they don’t even care. It really discourage me but  since I’m not like ‘them’, a moment of thoughtfulness and considering how generous I am, I think perseverance is what keeping me from quitting. In fact, PERSEVERANCE might be my favourite word of this year.

So guys, whether you are working or holidaying remember that when the world looks so unjust to you, something better will come out within you and makes you stronger. A sudden burst of perseverance keeps you ahead of the rest (lazybones and opportunist). With this new attitude I guess I look more MACHO, MANLY (at least that’s what I thoughtJ) and ready to step up my gear for next year. 2 weeks left of holiday is sufficient enough for me to refresh myself and spend the most awaited x’mas with my family. GAMBATEH!!!

Lookin’ good in FB

Try to be sexy but fail?

Every now and then I take photos of myself whenever I feel I look good or the environment around me makes me look cool in some way or another. But very often, my photo looks awfully taken or my facial expression makes me wana puke of myself. I believe many of us do feel the same way like I do and therefore, we need some help. Alright comrades, are you tired of looking less than perfect whenever you take a picture? Not being photogenic is a common reason why most people are not comfortable in front of the camera. However, everyone can learn to look flattering in photos by following a few useful guidelines(thank God no more ugly pictures in our FB).

Many people who are not comfortable around the camera believe that they are not photogenic. However, this idea is not entirely true. While some people seem to look their best in most pictures no matter what, the only reason why they manage to look fabulous with so much ease is that they instinctively know how to take advantage of their best qualities. Looking flattering in every picture is entirely possible as long as we are eager to expand our knowledge with a series of tips meant to help us emphasize our best features.

The first step for looking better in photos is discovering what are the elements that cause problems for us. It might be our posture, the lighting angle, an unnatural smile etc. If certain elements are recurrent the best approach would be to do our best to eliminate these factors. If you are unsure about what to do, try these tips for quick improvements:

(Here’s what I found on web, the easiest steps to follow)

Relax and modify the angle

è First of all, try to be as relaxed as possible when taking the picture. Any tension will have a negative result. When you are tense your whole body posture tends to change. Shoulders tend to go up contributing to a very unflattering image.

è Check your posture and try turning your body three quarters towards the camera so that your body will not be pointed directly towards the camera. Modifying the angle will help maximize the chances of having a good picture as most people tend to look a lot better when they are not facing the camera directly. This will also minimize the chances of getting a red eye.

Choose the best clothes, makeup(for ladies of course) and hairstyle

The way you look is the determining factor that contributes to the success of any picture.

Make sure that you dress in clothes that make you feel comfortable and choose colors that compliment your skin tone and avoid clothes that tend to wrinkle easily as well as positions that wrinkle your clothes. Solid colors are generally the most flattering when taking pictures.

è Pay attention to your make-up as well as your hairstyle. Do your best to conceal blemishes and check to see if your eyebrows won't appear as too dark or too thick in the picture. Apply powder on the eyebrows and try to hide a double chin with makeup when possible.

è If you are caught unprepared you can hide a double chin by trying to position yourself so that the camera is slightly below your eye level. Use a cream blush and apply lip gloss instead of applying shimmer for a dewy look. Also, to make your eye look bigger curl your lashes.

Choose the location properly

è It's important to make sure that the location you chose is not going to ruin the picture. Avoid places that are too sunny. When the light is not distributed evenly, your facial features are not emphasized properly. Make sure that there's nothing in the background that can make you look unflattering.

Practice

è From choosing the most flattering pose, to making sure that your seductive smile will never fail to impress practice is the one that ultimately gets us closer to perfection. By applying some of these tips you should be able to see improvements right away but learning to pose for the camera takes time..till then, c ya!

Such a beautiful wedding..

Everybody had dreams on how their wedding is going to be. Some prefer an extravagant wedding and some prefer it low profile with family and close relatives coming. As for me, I prefer a moderate wedding (not too expensive but affordable with family and friends celebrating my wedding). After all, it’s a joyous occasion which should be shared and to be remember throughout our lifetimes.

I, for the first time manage to come and celebrate my friend’s wedding. It’s was my first time since I’d never attending a Chinese wedding! That’s right, living in multiracial community here in Malaysia, I’ve never been to any Chinese wedding in my life. I would like to say many thanks to my dear friend Hii Ming Toh for inviting me to his special day on the first month of December(1.12.2010). Oh ya, FYI(for your information) they wed on 10.10.2010! Hahaha..ok, enough with that.

With this first hand opportunity, I was able to witness how they held a Chinese wedding reception (of course it was in a Hotel). It was simple yet meaningful for both brides. The bride and groom entered the hall, make a grand entrance along the isle to the stage. They proceeds with cutting the cute 3 tier wedding cake before making their way to the bride’s table full with their in laws..The mc announced (in chinese) and a volunteer among the audience took the stage and sang. At the same time, I was enjoying my dinner!(I left the hotel with extra 2kgs around my belly). What comes next was really interesting. The bride and groom walked around from table to table, bowed 3 times and they were given an ‘angpow’ each. Next, they took the stage with their family leading the guest cheering YAMSENG!!.

The night ended with me and my friends taking photo with the lucky and ever smiling bride. It was an unforgettable night for me as well. New experience, new adventure…here are some photos to be shared.      

                                                Us with the bride and groom..

By the way, nice wedding album bro! Gona make one for myslf in the future..

Not again…BACK PAIN!

As I was doing my stuff in my laptop, suddenly I had a sudden ache right at the back of my spinal cord. It’s a normal thingy that happens occasionally while I was sitting on the chair. I believe many of us had the same experience when we were online, writing, watching tv or even having lunch/dinner on the table. Since I’m (quite) aware of my situations, I would like to share my thought on this matter.

I’ve been seeing my own niece and other younger generations (teens) walking, standing and sitting with the wrong posture. When they walk, it is as if they had a little hump at the back of their neck. A hump will form on your back due to weak back muscles, weak spinal bones and constantly crouching forward. They can’t even stand or sit straight. I know how my nieces used to play computer games, reading comics and texting. They seldom went out and exercise (they’re really not into sport!). So it’s is a shame to see them walking hunchback..So here I am, trying to bring awareness on this matter in my blogJ.

Week body posture..a common problem among teenagers nowadays.

First of all, let me introduce how our spinal looks like:

Our spinal is supported by various types of muscle which helps straighten our vertebra and our body…

Various layer of muscle behind our back..

So how do people know they had this problem? Well, if you have a large mirror in your house, stand in front of the mirror and try to look at yourself. If you able to stand upright, you are safe and your chances of looking odd like a chimp is none. In fact, you look as good as a healthy living human and you might want to try on modeling (big clap to yourself)..but if you notice a slight hump at your back, you need to be concern of your posture.

Left: bad posture, Right: good posture

So, back to the tension around my back and my spinal cord ache, it happens mostly when I was sitting facing my laptop.

Look familiar??(think how you used to sit..)

  As for me, all I need to do is getting the right chair with the right height. Sometimes I had a comfy pillow supporting my back when I was sitting. It feels much better and I can work without having to worry the pain from my back. You guys might want to try the following exercise to reduce your hump and straighten your back. Strengthen the muscles of your back to pull your shoulder blades together, opening your chest and preventing the humped-back condition. I encourage you to reduce your humped-back appearance as a means of improving your overall body posture and decreasing your risks of neck and shoulder pain, lower back injuries and leg injuries.

1.       Seated Cable Rows

Seated cable rows completely engage all your back muscles responsible for drawing your shoulder blades together and opening your chest including your rhomboids, trapezius and latissimus dorsi muscles. Set the weight of a seated-row machine to a moderate intensity. Sit on the machine and ensure the handles are at chest level, adjusting the height of the seat if necessary. Grab both handles and pull them toward you squeezing your shoulder blades together. Straighten your arms to the start position and pull back again. Repeat for 12 to 15 repetitions. You must use progressively heavier weights to increase your muscular strength and your muscular endurance. Gradually increasing the weight you use for your back exercises will slowly help to reduce a humped back.

2.       Seated One-Arm Lateral Pull Downs

One-arm lateral pull downs enable you to improve the strength and endurance of your lats. Your lats function to pull your arm bone and shoulder blades downward and toward the center of your back, opening up your chest cavity. Using a one-arm lat bar instead of a regular lat bar enables you to pull the bar down with your upper body in a totally vertical position. Grasp the one-arm handle attached to the lateral pull-down machine, then sit down with your torso completely upright. Perform a one-arm lateral pull down by pulling the handle downward, squeezing your shoulder blade toward your spine. Your elbow should be tucked toward your rib cage and your palm at shoulder level.

3.       Standing One-Arm Rows

Standing one-arm rows work your back muscles in a slightly horizontal direction compared to the completely vertical direction of regular lateral pull downs. This position more fully engages your rhomboids and your traps. You can do a one-arm row by holding the handle in your right hand and stepping two feet away from the machine. Place your left foot against the seat cushion with both knees slightly bent. Then, tighten your core to prevent trunk rotation as you pull the handle toward you and squeeze your right shoulder blade toward the middle of your back.

Doing Yoga is another good workout for those who have this problem..

Just remember, maintain good posture. No matter where you are or what you're doing, be sure to keep good posture. Align your back, neck, and head as close to a straight line as possible. Lay down correctly when you're sleeping. Be sure to have a pillow with very low elevation. Bending your neck upwards all night with a tall pillow can cause problems. If you are laying on your back, put a raised pillow under your feet/knees, and if you sleep on your side, place a pillow between your legs. Never sleep on your stomach. Remember that it is also important to have a mattress that's in good condition (pillow, too!). I hope my little contributions here will help you guys becoming more motivated and build your esteem around people..till then, c  ya!
