Tips for Better Life

Taken from someone's post in friendster, makes a lot of sense to me at least feel free to share :)

1. Take a 10-30 minutes walk every day. And while you walk, smile.
2. Sit in silence for at least 10 minutes each day.
3. Sleep for 7 hours.
4. Live with the 3 E's -- Energy, Enthusiasm, and Empathy.
5. Play more games.
6. Read more books than you did the previous year.
7. Make time to practice meditation, yoga, and prayer. They provide us with daily fuel for our busy lives.
8. Spend time with people over the age of 70 & under the age of 6.
9. Dream more while you are awake.
10. Eat more foods that grow on trees and plants and eat less food that is manufactured in plants.
11. Drink plenty of water.
12. Try to make at least three people smile each day.
13. Don't waste your precious energy on gossip.
14. Forget issues of the past. Don't remind your partner with his/her mistakes of the past. That will ruin your present happiness.
15. Don't have negative thoughts or things you cannot control. Instead invest your energy in the positive present moment.
16. Realize that life is a school and you are here to learn. Problems are simply part of the curriculum that appear and fade away like algebra class but the lessons you learn will last a lifetime.
17. Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince and dinner like a beggar.
18. Smile and laugh more.
19. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone. Don't hate others.
20. Don't take yourself so seriously. No one else does.
21. You don't have to win every argument. Agree to disagree.
22. Make peace with your past so it won't spoil the present.
23. Don't compare your life to others'. You have no idea what their journey is all about. Don't compare your partner with others.
24. No one is in charge of your happiness except you.
25. Forgive everyone for everything.
26. What other people think of you is none of your business.
27. However good or bad a situation is, it will change.
28. Your job won't take care of you when you are sick. Your friends will. Stay in touch.
29. Get rid of anything that isn't useful, beautiful or joyful.
30. Envy is a waste of time. You already have all you need.
31. The best is yet to come.
32. No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up.
33. Do the right thing!
34. Call your family often.
35. Your inner most is always happy. So be happy.
36. Each day give something good to others.
37. Don't over do. Keep your limits.

Movie Review ------> Wall E!!!!

Hohoho! Finally my turn to review this movie!
Initially not knowing anything I was in fact confused Wall E for Short Circuit's Johnny 5!
And it's because of writing this review then I did some research and found out that they are different! Way light years different.

Because we were late so we kinda missed like 25 mins of the show. But still manage to pick up along the way.

The story line is pretty simple, It is said that 2110 that Earth was too toxic for humans to stay on so they leave earth and stayed in a space ship, Axiom (a'la Noah's Ark concept) and one Wall E unit (our main "unlikely" hero) is left behind. It's only when year 2815, almost seven hundred years later, Axiom send a probe robot Eve to earth to look for living form and Wall E's advanture begin by following Eve back to Axiom. Which leads to tonnes of disasters and also crowned our unlikely hero become the hero that saves the day!

Phew!!! I 'nearly' review everything didn't I? Go watch yourself la!!
I can only say 4 words, cute, amazing, education and brilliant! After all this movie is really really suitable to bring kids to watch along (I bring 2 :p) and to start them young to love mother earth or we'll simply need robots like Wall-E to clean up the mess.

Notably, you can see how human has 'evolved' after technology takes over alots of daily applications.

To write this little review, I have to do some homework (as usual). I was a bit upset to come to know that the release date cos in the States and Canada, they'd release this movie as early as end of June 08!! While we have to wait for another 1.5 months? Hello??? Explanation please?? Potong stim kau kau!

But ok lah since it's out, so go n watch lo. And think deeply about giving earth a second chance ;)

My Meatless week so far....

I must say I am proud of my progress, it's been a week now since I started my 'meatless diet'. Things are going good, simply because of this my skin complexion got better and also I lose 1kg out of this simple act!!! On top of that bad breath also gone cos my body is less acidic!

Below are some suggestion of what you can have as a substitution of 'just meaty stuff' or rather what I had over the weekend. :)

Fish porridge with lots of fish cake and fish ball in it.

Goes really well with a Hainam style Teh Tarik.

All time favourite Lui cha!!
(Jo, how come you shoot my tummy one?)

Now this one is really special, Sushi salad roll.
Consist of mangkuang, cucumber, beetroot and also rolled in seaweed, all organic.

Comes with a special sauce.

One thing also throughout my diet, I involved some organic vege in it.
Why? They are simply more nutritious! Usually we just need to pay a slightly extra more to get those extra nutrition, which I think it's all worth it. Also eating organic veg, you tend to chew more times than usual due to their texture are slightly different from other veg which is good for our facial muscles and also our teeth.

I must say I'm still not consider a vegan or anything, but this kind act brings a few benefits:

• Better Health (doh!)
  
  
• Better Emotional state at all times, less angry, less agitated (Try meatless a week and notice your temper!! Works for me!!!)
  
  
• Reduce global warming (less meat intake = less market demand = less poultry sacrifices = less land to rare these animals!!)

To meat or not to meat? The choice is yours.
Stay Peace!

Olympic = 'holan'pic? See how much have you missed

When I was watching the Beijing Olympic openings at Meng Tien, a local open air food court with free wifi, I was really touched especially the last scene when they light up the Cauldron(aka torch /Olympic flame a new word I learn today). It's like Finally!! The Olympic Cauldron is light up by a ChinesE!!!!

I am so freak'n proud that I am a chinese at that glorious moment so are many patrons in Meng Tien too, everyone clap when they announce the starting of the Olympic game! Sad part is that part of Meng Tien has bad projector so we half the time didn't quite get the image properly. Well that's still ok....

I was pretty upset today after realizing that there's a lot of 'deleted scenes' due to lame cameraman and photographer. It is because of them, they MURDERED the whole thing, the whole of everyones effort putting up the show!! How could they do that? Anyways check out the selected scenes I found in the web. Enjoy

The Blazing moment!

This really beats the Sydney 2000's fire on water and Barcelona's 1992 flaming arrow. Really creative, Chinese superman! I wonder what's next?
Having Human torch of Fantastic Four to light up the Olympic Cauldron? That is if the next Olympic is by US. "Here I come Olympic, Flame on!!!"

But Nothing beats this!

So, when's our turn?

Do you know?

Something I watch quite sometime ago i find it impacted me a lot. Guess it's going to impact me much more when I later have my own kids.

Enjoy and please pass on.



God bless! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pMcfrLYDm2U
