We have such a short time living on earth. Why should we be afraid to let go of bad relationships and bravely pursue true happiness.

Originally posted by Maith: mee sua..u boil the water first. Then put the chicken or ikan bilis stock cube into the boiling water and stir it. then after awhile put the mee sua,normally one person eat 2 bundle of the mee sua can alr,so put 2. 

Then just wait until the mee sua is cooked! before u pour it to a bowl,add sesame oil and pepper to it and stir! after that u can serve the mee sua! :D

red eggs,just boil the eggs in boiling water for 5-6 minutes,after that mix a few drops of red food coloring to a small bowl of water to dilute the coloring abit. After that dip the egg into the coloring and make sure the whole egg is covered. put it in a different bowl and wait for the coloring to dry! :D

Thanks for your detailed explanation. I will conduct a test cooking session first! =)

are u really that lonely that u've got no other friends to turn to?

 

If u really the treasure the friendship..then leave him alone lah..

U r making him sandwiched b/w him & his GF..this is called "SELFISH"..

U only consider abt urself..abt how no one is going to listen to ur ramblings..how no one is going to accompany u..

 

What abt him? Have to sacrifice his own r/s cuz of u.. =.='''

 

If I were him, I also won't care abt u..inconsiderate "friend"...

 

 

I would have reacted the same way as TS best friend's gf if I were in her shoes. I wish I can be more trusting and understanding... but some things just can't happen so the best solution for TS is to learn and let go. Even though it is possible to have 100% trust... yet still have that disturbing feeling that nags on in my heart.

i'm a big green monster.

Find out what is the more important things in your life now and work towards it.

I feel that the most important thing after the break up is to give each other some space and distance, to be able to clear our minds and to get over each other, especially if one of the party is still emotionally attached. To become friends straight away especially if deep/strong feelings had been put in, is rather hard I find, because being friends, the emotionally attached party, will take it as a hint, or maybe even a chance to get back together.

Our transport services are monopolized and we have no options. All that we can do now is to grumble and within weeks we are back to normal again.

actually she is quite true...psychology research has shown that guys go for physical attraction while girls go for psychological traits...as to which exact research i don know, saw it in my textbook...

It's only human nature to be attracted to visually pleasing objects, whether alive or not. I guess you could be the most gorgeous creature on earth but if you have the heart of a devil, you'd probably find that people start to lose interest in you pretty quick too.

It is also proven that attractive people tend to swim through life easier. Looking good = feeling good = confidence. You could send 2 people with the same qualifications/experiences/standards for a job interview, but the immaculately groomed one is likely to be the one who nails it as compared to the ugly betty.

Likewise for men, I guarantee you most of them would head for the pretty bimbo first instead of the less good looking, intelligent lady. That being said, you don't have to be born pretty you know? Grooming plays a big part AND, with all the cosmetic procedures and advanced technology these days, no one has to look like a cow.

if i were you, i would give. it's the thought that counts.

“If a man will begin with certainties, he shall end in doubts; but if he will be content to begin with doubts, he shall end in certainties.” ~ Francis Bacon

1) be confident

2) be genuinely yourself

3) smile and spark an interesting conversation then transition to conveying your traits/experiences to her.

4) try to get her to share something about herself. she will most likely reciprocate.

5) look into her eyes

6) look at her beyond her looks and look for characteristics that you like about her

7) compliment her

Girls feel much more comfortable and better when we are complimented about our interior selves, that we are liked for being who we are not about how we look. What I rarely find is a man that can bring out the real selves about them. Be willing to make a fool of yourself and DO NOT use lines and you'll be fine. To me, humour is attractive! 

Humans are usually "self-interested".

1st time abortion (without havent 1st given birth to a 1st born) is bad for the girl's womb, as according to O&G specialist.

and abortion is NOT say go and just go.
e.g. just like NS, after 2years NS then ORD, but still got reservist mah...

there will be mental stress, heart scars and the nightmares experiences by women who gone thru abortions as reported in the papers.

 

and i suggest u as a friend can give a call to MCYS hotline that i have given u in the 1st page 1st, maybe ur friend need to seek a counsellor...

Some people might say they will do this and do that...but when it really happens to them, they end up backing out. Just remember that it's always easier to say than to do. Raising a child is a long term responsibility. It's not as simple as you think.

I am neither for or against abortions. My stand is let the person decide herself or themselves whether to keep the baby or not. As rational people, I am sure they would have thought about the consequences of either giving birth or abortion before coming to a final decision.

Everyone has different beliefs and goals in life. It's what they choose to follow. Why must it always be that when a girl gets pregnant, she must give birth to the baby? and thinks that if the girl doesn't give birth to the child she's not responsible?

I'm fed up with this thinking that girls must ALWAYS give birth if they are pregnant.

and I'm tired of the hypocritical thinking of humans. Abortion is killing an innocent life and hence is morally wrong...but killing animals for fur and leather is perfectly OK.

It has videos and photos on abortion.

WARNING: not for the faint-hearted !!

In the good old days, the world was ruled by FEAR (think public executions, holy inquisition, and the chinese water torture) =)

During the 2 years when my ex-boyfriend was serving the army, I must admit that initially it wasn't easy to comprehend with the fact that there's a lot of occasions that he cannot spend with me, or that he will be away for 2-3 weeks for overseas training.

Slowly but surely...I have learnt to accept the nature of his job, and in fact enjoyed the times that I spent without him. So when he wasn't around esp during the weekdays...I will try to spend more time with other friends; weekends were usually 'reserved' for him.

It really helps too that he puts in a lot of effort in trying to maintain communication between the both of us, even when he was busy. It just made me feel cherished, as I know that I was in his thoughts.

The lack of seeing each other constantly makes each moment more precious. So... sometimes less can be more..

Exactly. Singapore is being such an expensive country to live in. I'm certainly grateful for the sense of security that this country gives to us, yes, to a large extent, i'm proud to be a Singaporean...

BUT, i'm not exactly euphoric about the fact that we have to pay and keep paying and prices keep increasing.

Yeah, the place is quite old...so are the staffs who has been working there for decades. The restaurant is usually dimly lited with candles on each table. If you are going on a weekend, better make a reservation. :)

hello panda is my favourite too

It all depends on individuals, isn't it? As long as one is absolutely clear yet not blinded by the sweet illusion of being someone else's husband/wife, others' opinions about being tied down, doesn't matter. As long as you don't mind less freedom and as long as you feel you are really ready...why not? It's always healthy for your mind and soul to dream away, think of the positive side and then set it to reality. However, disillusion can creep in if one's blinded, not rational and not aware of the surrounding/consequences around them. Or even disillusioned by the intensified passion in you wanting to lock your partner up and be yours truly. And the only way to that is to marry.

In my humble opinion, marriage at a young age is safe and possibly blissful when both side of the couple's families are peaceful - not aggresively filled up with bias-ness, judgements, parental problems and that allow freedom, less expectations and less restriction(responsibilites) in the marriage. The rest of the "happiness"...is up to the couple - to work hard for their future esp financial issues.

Is there an adult relative or friend whom you trust and confide in? Perhaps he/she can better understand your situation and guide you along or you could try to seek help from those family welfare centres, usually located in neighbourhoods.

If you feel you need someone to confide in, there are volunteers there to help you, give you advice.

eg: care corner http://www.carecorner.org.sg/

Physical violence cannot be tolerated, a police report is neccessary. You can make a difference in your life by seeking appropriate help.

All the best!!!
