There are words of nonsense and rhetoric that roll of the tounge and i can’t let go like "Hockey Stick" and "Ice Pink" and "covered in snow" and some that jump at you that you can’t ignore like "Hand grenade" or "Candle stick" or "Cellar Door"

There are words in my head and words in my heart I want to tell you them all but how can I start in my head there is "sailed away" and "ocean apart" there is "math test" and "peach tree" and "sweet apple tart"

There are words in my heart and words in my head some that I read some that are prefect and some that I dread in my heart there is "sunshine" and "the fever will tauten" and some that stand out like "forever forgotten" then there is "storm cloud" and "beach towel" and "mild mountain" but the ones I hold delight are "beautiful"

I Love You

Sydney, 14 Feb 2007 (A Man)

Remember the five simple rules to be happy:
1. Free your heart from hatred.
2. Free your mind from worries.
3. Live simply.
4. Give more.
5. Expect less.

No one can go back and make a brand new start.

Anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending.

God didn’t promise days without pain, laughter without sorrow, sun without rain, but He did promise strength for the day, comfort for the tears, and light for the way.

Disappointments are like road humps, they slow you down a bit but you enjoy the smooth road afterwards.

Don’t stay on the humps too long. Move on!

When you fe el down because you didn’t get what you want, just sit tight and be happy, because God is thinking of something better to give you.

When something happens to you, good or bad, consider what it means ….

There’s a purpose to life’s events, to teach you how to laugh more or not to cry too hard.

You can’t make someone love you, all you can do is be someone who can be loved, the rest is up to the person to realise your worth.

The measure of love is when you love without measure.

In life there are very rare chances that you’ll meet the person you love and loves you in return.

So once you have it don’t ever let go, the chance might never come your way again.

It’s better to lose your pride to the one you love, than to lose the one you love because of pride.

We spend too much time looking for the right person to love or finding fault with those we already love, when instead we should be perfecting the love we give.

When you truly care for someone, you don’t look for faults, you don’t look for answers, you don’t look for mistakes.

Instead, you fight the mistakes, you accept the faults, and you overlook the excuses.

Never abandon an old friend you will never find one who can take his or her place.

Friendship is like wine, it gets better as it grows older.

How To Be A Better Couple
10 steps to enjoying each other better…

1. Be realistic about each other.
Don’t try to turn ur partner into something he or she is not. Let’s face it, guys-there’s only 1 Pamela Anderson in the world, and even she has had her implants removed! Give ur gal a break and understand that her physical appearance is NOT going to change overnite with the help of a few facials or treatments. And ladies, Brad Pitt has already been taken, so u’re gonna have to do with what ur guy is like! Chill out, love each other for what u are. There is more to ur partner than what meets the eye.

2. Always talk things out.
Now guys, I know this is not ur fave pastime or mode of resolving issues, but u know what? This works with the gals. Don’t make assumptions about each other’s feelings. Learn to xpress urself better so that ur partner undrstands what u’re angry about, or hurt about, or even happy about! When u stop talking to each other from the heart, it’s the beginning of the end.

3. Do stuff together.
Make an effort to do things together. Do some sports or involve urselves in some shared activities; something both of u enjoy or are interested in. It could be as simple as watching movies together, or jus strolling hand-in-hand down Orchard Road . Watch soccor with him once in a while though the green patch on TV puts u to sleep in 3 seconds. And guys, do give in if ur gal asks for another day at window-shopping, rather than suggest that she go out with her girlfriends for "that sort of activities" instead. If u’re spending more time with ur friends rather than with ur partner, it’s a warning sign that u’re drifting apart!!!

4. Meet each other halfway.
If he agrees to throw out that rotten T-shirt with the "The_Rock" print, u shouldn’t kick up much of a fuss if he asks u to keep ur room tidy. There’s gotta be a little giving and taking in a relationship, so learn to meet each other halfway.

5.Show ur love
Buy her flowers or candy or perfume everynow and then, even if u have been together for 5years. It’s wonderful to continue showing someone that u care for him or her. Cook him a special meal, paint him a Valentine’s Day card. Knit him mini-socks he can’t wear ( like for decoration purposes => ), buy him a packet of milk for breakfast, or pack his wardrobe for him…so he knows u can still be romantic and loving despite having been together for quite a while.

6. Respect each other.
Stop making jokes about her hair or skin, or whatever it is u love to laugh at. Ask urself if she thinks if its funny. And if he has an inferiority complex about his height, stop ogling at tall guys and make him feel worse! Love is about respecting each other’s feelings and being sensitive to each other at all times.

7. Bury the past.
Stop bringing up the past. Gals..don’t bring up the happy things about u and ur ex to ur guy, it would jus make him jealous or unhappy. And guys, don’t talk about the happy times that u had with ur ex or mention about her in ur every other sentence as it would make ur gal feel un-happy and she might think that u saying all this b’cos u are gonna get back with ur ex or not interested in her anymore.

8. Sit on ur jealousy.
All of us go thru’ spells of insecurity at the beginning of the relationship, but don’t translate that insecurity into jealousy. If u’re gonna go through ur partner’s mail and cupboard, and eavesdropping on conversations, u know something is wrong - with u!!! Jealousy is like a poison that slowly spreads thru’ the relationship before finally killing it. Trust ur partner; love has to have trust in it.

9. Keep ur commitments to each other.
If ur partner is standing u up all the time and cancelling dates and breaking promises, u need to talk! If u’re in a relationship, make ur partner ur priority and don’t disappoint them if u can help it. It’s really terrible when someone promises to take u to dinner, and then calls to cancel it. Don’t make promises u can’t keep. If ur partner starts to feel that he/she is not important enough to u, u may jus lose him/her.

10. Be honest.
Honesty is not scowling at how awful she looks first thing in the morning, or telling him that he has the biceps of a fly~! When we say "be honest", we mean expressing ur feelings clearly, not being bitingly cruel. When u’re hurt, say so, and when u’re angry, tell him/her, w/o getting hysterical. If u can’t be honest with ur partner, who can u be honest with? æ Love is also about honesty, and a relationship where no honesty exists probably isn’t worth it!

Before coming to Australia, my friends have already remained me not to shock by the same sex partner or homosexual or bisexual since it has become a common issue. It’s totally different from my country, Indonesia, which has conventional views. Same sex partners are taboo and majority of the societies cannot accept them. Also, a number of parents do not want to acknowledge their homosexual children since they are ashamed. These become one reason why some homosexual do transsexual operations. For instance, some men do a breast operation and a face operation even sex operation. With changing their bodies and performances, they are really hope society and Norma can accept them.

When I arrived in Sydney, I really though that it is only a tiny percent or let say 0.1% of chance; I can meet and see directly these kinds of people. The main reason is I would live in the city centre with academic atmosphere at least. But in the reality, friends of mine told that they have seen many cases in the Sydney every single day. Particularly, we can meet these people on the streets, shops and busses as well. Another opinion, from my Melbourne friend, is Sydney is the centre of homosexual people and it has the higher proportion of homosexual people. Besides that, it has a special day for them which in this day there is a gays and lesbians parade with beautiful clothes, performance and body as well. So, after hearing these stories, I realized that these people are a neutral part of Australian society and you cannot distinguish or point out them in the real life. They live like normal people, have a good job and background too.

Interesting experience happened when my friend and I took a wrong free magazine from Broadway shopping centre. From the cover and headings in the in front of page, this magazine could be interesting. Of course, we could not recognize that is a gay magazine until both of us red it and found that it only discussed the gays life and lifestyle. This experience opened my eyes and mind as well that homosexual lives are not only as a part of society but also as magazines that can others read and know.

Another surprising thing was when I watched a movie which starring by a gay band from England. This film is about the real life of homosexual lives in England. In this film the gay say to one man “I love you or I love him” or if I change into an indirect sentence is “he loves him.”

The question is what does the exact meaning of this case, if it also happened also for lesbian, she love her. How to distinguish “love” when people want to say to their friends and members of family which have same sex? Is there any special word or same word but different atmosphere? What is your perspective since it has absolutely different meaning when a man says love to a woman?

As a comparison, in my country the word love has 2 meanings “cinta or sayang”. People can say “sayang” to their families, like sisters and brothers, or friends as well even though they have the same sex. However, the word “cinta” is only use for men to women or women to men.

There’s scientific evidence now that suggests a nice cuppa tea might do more than just refresh you.

Researchers have found proof that black tea does have an effect on stress hormone levels in the body. People who drank tea were able to de-stress more quickly than those who drank a fake tea substitute.

Those who drank a black tea concoction four times a day for six weeks were also found to have lower levels of the stress hormone, cortisol, in their blood after a stressful event, compared with a control group who drank a placebo.

The study divided 75 male tea drinkers into two groups and monitored them for six weeks. They all gave up normal tea, coffee and caffeinated drinks.

While one group was given a fruit-flavoured caffeinated tea mixture made up of the constituents of an average cup of black tea, the other was given a caffeinated placebo identical in taste but devoid of the active tea ingredients.

Both groups were subjected to stressful situations - like threat of unemployment, a shop-lifting accusation or an incident in a nursing home - while their stress levels were measured.

The tasks triggered "substantial" increases in blood pressure, heart rate and subjective stress ratings in both of the groups.

But 50 minutes after the task, cortisol levels had dropped by an average of 47 per cent in the tea-drinking group compared with just 27 per cent in the fake tea group.

The tea-drinking group also reported a greater degree of relaxation in the recovery period after the task.

UCL’s Professor Andrew Steptoe said: "This is one of the first studies to assess tea in a double-blind placebo controlled design, that is, neither we nor the participants knew whether they were drinking real or fake tea.

"This means that any differences were due to the biological ingredients of tea, and not to the relaxing situations in which people might drink tea, whether they were familiar with the taste and liked it, and so on."

Cinta tak pernah akan begitu indah, jika tanpa persahabatan….. yang satu selalu menjadi penyebab yang lain dan prosesnya.. adalah irreversible……
Seorang pecinta yang terbaik adalah sahabat yang terhebat.
Jika kamu mencintai seseorang, jangan berharap bahwa
seseorang itu akan mencintai kamu persis sebaliknya dalam kapasitas yang sama.
Satu diantara kalian akan memberikan lebih, yang lain akan dirasa kurang………..

Cinta mungkin akan meninggalkan hatimu bagaikan kepingan2 kaca, tapi tancapkan dalam pikiranmu, bahwa ada seseorang yang akan bersedia untuk menambal lukamu dengan mengumpulkan kembali pecahan2 kaca itu….. Sehingga kamu akan menjadi utuh kembali….
