Speech 3: 10 Words that Change my Life

2011-11-30T11:44:00.002+07:00

Have you ever wake up in the morning and realize that you are not as good as you want to be? You are not as successful as you want to be? I had and I have.

Everyone of us wants to grow and be better each day. But have we done anything to make today better than yesterday. To make this year better than last year?

Ask yourself honestly. Have you done anything to change your dissatisfaction with your job, the dissatifaction with your boss, with your parents or your boyfriend girlfriend?

A year ago, someone came to me and asked "How is your day at work?" I was reluctant to answer. After a long pause I finally said "Its not so good. You wouldn't want to know". Isn't it sad this is how I explain something I do everyday.

Today am I still working at Deloitte? Hell-No
Today have I done something to change my life? Hell-Yes
Do you want to know how I did it? Here it is. I am about to tell you the 10 words that change my life. I am certainly sure that these words will change your life and make your life a better one.

1. Begin - Take charge of your life by beginning something you've always wanted to do. If your goal is too overwhelming, start small. Start by asking what you really like doing for life? What you like and what you dislike. Accumulate all of these information and Begin doing something about it!

2. Imagine - Imagination has no boundaries. Believe it or not! Dreaming is the first step to achieving something.

3. Seek - The third word is Seek. Seeking is not just searching. Seeking is searching outside your comfort zone. If you always stay within your comfort zone , within the area you are familiar with, you will never grow. You want to grow and you want to change. You have to seek and be willing to admit your vulnerability and insecurity.

4. Create - you need creativity to change from what you already are. The only way to improve your creativity is by creating something new everyday. Start creating your own opinion, your own views about a movie or someone. Don't always rely on others' opinion. But create something of your own. When you make creating a habit, you will become innovative and you will grow and be better than you are.

5. Connect - Today we are living in the information age. The people who have the information will win the race. How can we keep up with the race if we don't connect with people. If we want to grow, we don't want to be left behind in the race against new information and new change in our world. Therefore if you want to grow, make sure that you make a point to connect and nurture a relationship with people around you.

6. Read - Reading removes boundaries. Reading is the window of inspiration. Through reading we can gain knowledge and information. Information that will take us a step higher and a step above who we are.

7. Listen - Listening is the key to gaining your confidence about yourself. When you listen to other people speak, people will be more likely to listen to you. When you have people listening to you, your confidence level will gradually increase. The more confident you are with yourself, you will be brave enough to make changes to your life.

8. Trust - Here I refer this word as trusting my inner voice. A year ago when I quit from Deloitte. This decision I made from listening to my inner voice. My inner voice is telling me that I don't want to work as financial analyst all my life. I don't like it. I trust my inner voice and so I move forward and quit from my job. If I dont trust my inner voice, I would return and look for a similar financial analyst job and return to where I used to be. Being paralyzed by indecision is worst than making the wrong decision. Today moving to a marketing job , well it could be a wrong decision, this I wouldn't know now. But at least I know that I had made progress. I had seek out from my comfort zone and try to make my life better.

9. Believe - You have to believe in yourself if not no one will. Set your mind to predict success. When you do that, you will believe that you are meant to be successful, its' just a matter of time.

10. Hope - Last but not least is Hope. Hope is the knowledge that even in the worst of times, we will triumph. There is this little smile inside our heart that everything will be alrite because I have to chase after my hope. The hope of becoming successful. The hope of becoming someone in the world.

Today I share with you these 10 words because I want all of you to be better than who are now. I want all of you to face your dissatisfaction with your life by using these 10 words.

New Years eve is coming. I never make my new years resolution until last year. Last year I wrote my new years resolution on a piece of paper that wrote "I want a new life" Thanks to this piece of paper. Today I no longer work at Deloitte and I am a marketing promotion manager at english first. English First is the largest private education company in the world, with offices and schools in 51 countries. Am I happy? Well I would say I am happier than I was a year ago. I have found my passion and a job that promote my passion. My passion is education and creating something of my own. Marketing job allows me to create something of my own everyday and english first let me work with the best private education in the world. What more could I ask from a job.

Dear Fellow toastmaster ladies and gentleman. You can change your life too. You are just a step away from being better than who you used to be a year ago if you start using these 10 words. Bring these words home with you and start changing your life.

I am the Maple Tree - 12TH APRIL

2011-11-17T15:39:00.001+07:00

Druid horoscope for Maple.

The Maple is known as the luckiest of trees. It embodies a happy spirit because it represents very desirable qualities, such as success, wealth, and general prosperity. This is a very positive and constructive sign. It is only natural, then, that Maple people are always pleasant to be around because they are cheerful, joyful, and active. These dynamic people are quite adventurous and always seek out excitement. Even when a Maple Tree person isn't the most gorgeous one in the room, he or she can easily compensate for it with an outrageous, interesting, and outstanding personality.

Maples are known to be offbeat, extravagant, and even a bit bizarre. They are always aware of all the new trends, social customs, and the most recent discoveries in the world around them. On any given day they are involved or considering any number of interesting and exciting projects. However, they rarely implement any of their daring ideas. Maples prefer to watch others achieve their goals.

Maple people have irrepressible energy; they are simply restless! They are interested in too many things at once. Sometimes Maples feel that if they stop even for a moment, they will miss out on something very important. Despite their daring personalities, Maple people are not extremely courageous. The only reason they decides to take a risk is because Maples have a very low sense of danger.

Maples are social butterflies; every day they make new connections. Because of their warm and inviting nature, people trust them with all their secrets. They know that no matter what, this sign will never reproach them or disapprove of them.

Even though Maples love to be the center of attention, they don't care what kind of impression they make on people or what kind of attention they garner. They don't follow the rules, and they actually enjoy provoking others.

Although a logical mind helps them to find solutions to the most difficult problems, Maples' path in life is never easy. They rarely achieve great success.

Maple people don't need love to be happy. If they don't ever find a "partner in crime" they manage just fine on their own. This sign will never complain about an ill-fated life or shattered dreams. Maples have a way of learning to be content with what they already have.

Maples can be quite cynical. They will notice someone's flaws, but never hold anything against that person. Maples have a many-sided personality; they are full of surprises, both good and unpleasant.

Speech 2 : Sailormoon

2011-11-07T00:38:00.003+07:00

“Fighting Evil by Moonlight
Winning Love by Daylight
Never running from a real fight
She is the one named
Sailor moon

Sailormoon also known as Bishojo Senshi Sera Mun was one of the first Magical Girl Manga that use the power of magic to associate with human’s most precious desire. That is Love Friendship and Justice.
Dear Fellow Toastmaster Ladies and Gentleman
Today I will take this moment to tell you
About the Origin of Sailormoon, the Story, Sailormoon today , What I learned from Sailormoon

Main Points:
1. The Origin of Sailormoon
Takeuchi Naoko was the founder and writer of Sailormoon. Sailormoon catch its first public attention by appearing on television channel in Japan as early as March 1992. The first manga series was published a month earlier. But it was the anime television series that catched a massive attention from the public. By the end of 1995, sailormoon managed to reach 23 countries worldwide.
Do you know the story of sailormoon ?

2. The story
A thousand years ago, there was a kingdom under the rule of Queen Serenity. It was the happiest kingdom when all the planets were at peace. Queen Serenity raised her daughter Serena to follow her footsteps, but most of the time Serena spent staring at the earth, for she had fallen in love with a young man from there. He was Prince Endymion of Earth. Everything was peaceful until the arrival of dark power of Metalia. On the earth, she found an ally in Queen Beryl who was propelled by her lust for power and unrequited love for Prince Endymion. Together with Shitennou and Seven Great Youma they conquered the Earth then moved to the Silver Millenium in order to obtain the power of the Silver Crystal. Princess Serenity, Prince Endymion and Sailor Senshi were all killed in the battle and in her grief, Queen Serenity used the Silver Crystal, despite the fact that it would cost her life. The power of the crystal sealed away Metalia’s evil and fulfilling the last wish of the dying queen. That is to send Serenity, Endymion and the Senshi into the future in the hope that they could be reborn again on earth and live a peaceful lives.
And so our story begins…
Sailor moon was reborn as Usagi Tsukino, an ordinary 14 year old school girl who is lazy, a cry baby and she spent all her free time after school at the game center playing the Sailor V video game. One day she bumped into a talking cat named Luna and discovered that she was a Sailor Senshi, destined to protect the princess and the world from the evil forces of the dark kingdom. As Sailor Moon, Usagi later joined by Sailor Mercury, Sailor Mars, Sailor Jupiter, Sailor Venus and occasionally helped by Tuxedo Mask. Eventually Usagi discovers that she is the Princess and the reborn heir to the ancient moon kingdom and wielder of the silver crystal.
Just as the sailor soldiers were back on earth, the evil minions of Queen Beryl also returned to earth. Queen Beryl and Metalia emerge from the seal placed upon them by Queen Serenity in the past and threaten to destroy the Earth once more. The stories endlessly involved the battle between queen beryl and sailor senshi. As the series progresses, gradually Usagi discovers the truth about her own past life, her destined true love, and the possibilities for the future of the Solar System.
The story that I just told you is the Sailormoon first season.
Altogether there are actually five Sailor Moon TV series aired in Japan:
1. Sailormoon - The Dark Kingdom
2. Sailormoon R - The Dark Moon
3. Sailormoon S - The Mugen (Infinity)
4. Sailormoon Super S - The Yume (Dream)
5. Sailormoon Sailor Stars - The Sailor Stars
6. PGSM (Pretty Guardian Sailormoon (The human version of Sailormoon)

3. Sailormoon Today
Spain and France became the first countries outside of Japan to air Sailor Moon, beginning in December 1993. Other countries followed suit, including Australia, South Korea, the Philippines, Italy, Peru, Brazil, Sweden and Hong Kong, before North America picked up the franchise for adaptation.
According to Facebook, there are 22,322 Fans around the world. This exclude Japanese fans who submitted their membership through japanese websites, that is unreachable.
122 Fans club around the world (exclude japan)
Numerous people wrote and composed music for the Sailor Moon with frequent lyrical contributions by creator Naoko Takeuchi. Takanori Arisawa, who earned the "Golden Disk Grand Prize" from Columbia Records for his work on the first series soundtrack in 1993, composed and arranged all of the background musical scores, including the spinoffs, games, and movies. In 1998, 2000, and 2001 Takanori Arisawa won the JASRAC International Award for most international royalties, owing largely to the popularity of Sailor Moon music in other nations
 Wikimoon - ongoing project to create a definitive database of information about Sailormoon. It started in May 2006. The project users have created 3125 articles http://wikimoon.org

4. What I learned from Sailormoon
Friendship is a free gift from God
Truly Believe in what u Wish for
By Fate and not By Coincidence
You are Invincible!
Dreams only come true in Cans and not Can’ts

Never stop dreaming
Only you can make your dreams come true

My First Toastmaster Speech : A moment in My Life

2011-09-24T23:04:00.003+07:00

Date: September 8th 2011
Venue: Mayapada Building 17th Floor , Jakarta Motivators Club

Word by word:

My name is Ariel. I am delivering my first speech today, the icebreaker, the title: A moment in my life.

Today I want to share with you a moment in my life that makes me who I am today.
This moment in my life is when I fell into a real deep failure and I manage to rise from this fall.

Before the age of twelve, I was already tired of living

In fact, I ran away from home to live with my grandma, repeatedly that mom and my dad quarrel because of this little daughter who doesn’t want to be born a girl.

My mom made me attended piano, ballet, violin, mandarin, drawing and I have a tutor who visited me like a living ghost every night including Sundays to make me do my school homework. When I argued why alex (my brother) and albert (my younger brother) doesn’t have to do all these, why I am the only kid being tortured here.
My mom would say
Because you are a girl !
Because you are a girl !
Because you are a girl !

I hear this a thousand times, that I just begin to wonder of the possibilities of faking myself into a boy like Mulan. One day I came home and my brother wasn’t around. I looked all over the house and waited till bedtime for my brother to show up. He did not. The next day I discovered he has left the country. I escaped from home the following day after school and wrote a horrifying letter to my mom.
My mom sent me to singapore the following DAY. It turns out that my mom did make a plan for me afterall.

Leaving the country was a new found happiness for me. I thought I can now be free from all the crazy piano teachers and my challenging mom. However when i arrived in Singapore, there was a whole new challenge waiting for me. I got admitted into a girl school that was ranked 8 in singapore. My grades were extremely poor that hardly anyone wants to be my friend. Not only that i have no friends, I have Miss Vimala Kumar as my english teacher. The teacher most noted for her strict and fierce teaching skills in the entire school

At that point in my life, I almost wanted to kill myself. I did not feel like going to school and I did not feel like going home to Indonesia. For one moment, I thought I HAVE NOWHERE TO GO. I STARTED DAY DREAMING in class. One afternoon, I stared blankly at the band members marching across the school field. It was like a calling inside me that I should join the band.

And I did. I joined the band. Joining the band turns out to be the savior of my life. It lifted my entire spirit and mind. I learned that success require perseverance and positive attitude towards everything. Curiosity can bring us to a place further. Curiosity makes me found seven new best friends in the band. Soon I came to realize that I wasn’t the only one struggling in this world. They also have a challenging mom and every daughter and son is treated differently, They also have red color grades to work hard on. During that year, our school band was selected from a pool of 150 schools to participate in the SYF Band Competition. After six months of practice under the hot sun, 110 band members together we wont the 1st position in the 1996 SYF Band Competition. Winning the competition lifted my confidence about myself and how much I can achieve by working extra harder. I started achieving good grades in school and graduated from O LEVEL with 6 As. Following O LEVEL, I also did very well in college and graduated at 22, the youngest from MBA Class in America. On my last day at Cedar, Miss Vimala Kumar gave me a novel call “Anne of Green Gables”

In the novel, she wrote this:
God makes everyone of us unique and different. You may think that your life is the worst in this world. You may think no one in this world live such a horrible life as yours. But don’t be sad. Because God makes everyone of us unique for a reason. Soon when you grow up you will learn to love yourself.

Today when I look back at this book, I finally understand why Miss Kumar gave me this book. It was because, I was just like Anne, the main character in this novel. An orphan girl who refused to follow the rules and uniquely different from everyone yet she finally manage to find happiness.

Sightings Today

2011-08-13T09:34:00.002+07:00

When I see 325 drove pass thru my sight, it gives me a set of predicament about the person behind the wheels. He must be the kind of guy who is ambitious yet down to earth, who is neat in the way he dress and the way he arrange his belongings. There is a solitude yet warm attitude within him that draw people to him. But often turned out is NOT what I've imagined...Instead its a driver with a perky mousstache, dirty looking obnoxious face and smokey white hair. I bet all other girls carry the same wonder as me and to be dissapointed just as well.

Now to You-Out-There, who fit a little of the charming aspect of the ambitious gentleman above, who happens to be driving this car, I have to say : You have eliminate one dissapointment out of the mass dissapointing truths out there

Independence Day

2011-08-11T23:29:00.004+07:00

I participated in Table Topic session at British Toastmaster meeting today....talking about Indonesia's Independence Day

17th of August is a national holiday in Indonesia. It becomes a national holiday to commemorate the declaration of the country’s independence from Japanese Occupation and Dutch pre-dominant rule. To understand the importance of this day, we have to look back at the history of Indonesia. Indonesia is a country populated by peoples of various migrations, creating a diversity of cultures, ethnicities, religions and languages.

Indonesia has become the largest archipelago in the world today. Don't you wanna know how it becomes so huge? This huge archipelago was first founded and merged by the Srivijaya King in the 7th Century bringing Hindu and Buddhist influences with it. From 7th to the 13th century, Java archipelago was under the reign of buddhist sailendra king and hindu mataram dynasties which subsequently thrived and declined. It was as late as 13th century that the Majapahit kingdom takeover. Majapahit was one of the last major empires of the region and is considered to be one of the greatest and most powerful empires in the history of Indonesia and Southeast Asia.Majapahit’s empire stretched from Sumatera to New guinea, consist of present day indonesia, singapore, malaysia, brunei, southern thailand, phillipines and east timor.

Europeans arrived in the 16th century seeking monopoly of the natural resources and abundance of land. The dutch was then the predominant power. It was until the Japanese invasion in world war II that ended the Dutch rule. Two days after the surrender of japan in august 1945, nationalist leader, sukarno, declared independence and was apppointed President.

Two decades later, an unfortunate and an attempted coup in 1965 led to a violent army led anti communist purge in which over half a million people were killed. General suharto politically outmanoeuvred President Sukarno and was formally appointed president in march 1968. As a president, Suharto managed to include foreign investment into indonesia that was a major factor in the subsequent three decades of substantial economic growth.

Suharto was the president for seven consecutive elections until 1998 when Indonesia was hit hard by economic crisis that led to a country wide protests and Suharto’s resigned in may 1998. After the resignation of suharto, Indonesia struggled to find its’ identity. It was until 2004 that the political arena of Indonesia gradually settle down to what it is today.

Today Indonesia GDP growth is six percent and above today. CNBC analysts had nicknamed indonesia as the next brazil. On this day of independence, we shall be thankful that our country is now united under one rule and commemorate the heroic struggle of our previous leader of this country, who makes Indonesia the largest archipelago in the world today.

The Rich Soil

2010-05-05T15:34:00.002+07:00

Indonesia's commodity Production is coming to center stage in the world..the numbers tell it all:
CPO = 2.5 million tons (No.1 in the world)
Rubber = 2.1 million tons (No.2 in the world)
Kakao (Choco) = 934.000 ton (No. 3 in the world)
Rice = 63.8 million tons (No.3 in the world)
Corn = 17.7 million tons (No. 1 in Asia)
Coffee = 698.000 ton (No. 4 in the world)
Seaweed = 1.9 million ton (No. 1 in the world)

Blessed with a rich soil but with no advancement in technology and human resource, we can only be an exporter of raw materials instead of an innovative industrial nations. We need technology and we need brilliant scientists to work for this nation. With so much capital bubbling into the country's capital market in the first quarter of 2010, that makes the analysts panic with fright, direction and governance from government is crucial to fully utilize the capital that comes in and turn this nation into one of the leading industrial nations of the world. O. please dn't fall apart. you have come thus far. my country.

Strawberry someone

2010-04-06T16:29:00.010+07:00

someone who find your messiness rather cute
someone who doesn't mind walking with you in the longest and darkest and most unbearable journey in your life.
someone who forgive you always
someone who can accept your weakness and be there to help you cure your weakness
someone who teach you to love yourselves first
someone who is always there for you
someone who pamper you when you are feeling down
someone who kept saying, I will do everything not to hurt you
someone who would carry you on his back when the streets are flooding up to the knees.

These r my definition of soulmate

I remember ....and I do recall. Even though he didn't become somebody n my life.
It was a distant time from today....long ago in a winter town after getting off from class. I walked home with my nose red and tears inside my eyes which refuse to leave my eyes no matter how many tissues I used....then he didn't say a single word. He just bought a small strawberry cake for me and asked me :"Do you want to see whats' inside this little box?" I was reluctant to answer. Not in the mood to even look at the box.....and pretending to look up the sky to prevent my tears from falling. My entire mind was still thinking about the miserable things that happened that day ....he made me wait, taking his own sweet time in front of the counter picking another cake....i have to ask him "are you done?"
He said, please open your eyes and see whats' inside the box....as if instructing me like his student!
I was a little pissed off and said : "I have a flu, dn't u see my nose is red and my eyes are small"
He said : "ahaaaa are you crying?"
I said :" No , I am not!" "I have a cold" "Can we go now please" "I want to go home"
He said :"sure,,,,but open your eyes and see whats' inside this box first"
I said ...."Of course is a CAKE! This is a CAKE SHOP! OOOOKAY WHateverrr!"
As I opened it, He was about to push up the cake on my face,,,Then hesitated after seeing my eyes,,,and said = ===== "what are you doing?"
"I am looking at your cake"
....then...he closed the box for me and said "Time to go home!!!"

We walked home with lots of silence because he was happily listening to his discman and I was busy hiding my tears and thinking about my sad misery. We parted on one particular avenue not far from the campus.....by then the sky was dark.
I was alone when I opened the box at home and taste the cake.....
wow....it brought a smile and my tears stop falling...and I called him and said thank you. He acted cool and said SURE! and started telling me about some gadgets he got from the electronic store today. He can talk like hours without stopping and I have to tell him,I want to sleep. Bye"

Undigestive Words

2010-04-06T10:48:00.008+07:00

"Janganlah kau menyakiti dirinya"
"Don't u hurt her"

Think optimistic.....or worst case?

There's one that gets stinky if u dn't digest it immediately....

Now all my skirts widen in the waist area and the length is also longer than before...OOOO MYYYY goddd...petrified!...I need to bring all my skirts to a seamstress.....to reduce the width by 4cm and the length by 2.5cm. ...

"Wear Beautiful Clothes and you will have beautiful life"

I remember working in the bank as my first job after college and in an effort to piss off my boss, I dyed my hair Dark Blue which lasted for a month and a half.

I am fascinated and addicted to "FASHION TV" ....wouldn't miss the catwalk from Versace and Christian Dior

"There's no Me Without you" ....his last words to me. Still, I walked away without knowing I had left a scar in his heart. That was year 1999....wish it was yesterday

"I am back for good" . . .. . sounding Mellow and down or UP and High Five!

I want to write out the words in my heart on a small piece of paper and write as many as my age number. Fit each paper into one balloon. Blew up all the balloons and let the wind blow them all away above the clouds and hope they will reach the angels and Gods above there....

Which one do you like? Tellme tell me. I personally like F, C, G , M. . . . .M is my favorite. A good side reference for me. Certainly all getting all 14 pairs will keep you in the safe zone of being trendy. The boots I already have is similar to pattern A and N. Blue boots "J" will be really sexy if u wear it w "blue sheer" stockings and shiny flashy blue mini skirt. I have a mini skirt blue Indonesian Batik, its' only 18cm long I think from Body&Soul.

Love Giselle

2010-01-21T16:21:00.007+07:00

Giselle demands both exquisite technique and daring dramatic skills from the dancer. The first act is colourful, bright, optimistic and light, while the second act, ironically called the “white act” is much more formal, dark and unsettling. As Giselle, the prima ballerina handling this role has to switch dramatically and believably from a young and innocent maiden in Act 1, to, literally, a ghost of her former self in Act 2, where Giselle has died and turned into an embittered wilis – a female spirit who exists to seek revenge on unfaithful and deceitful men.

The eponymous ballet tells of the tragic love story between a village maiden, Giselle, and a nobleman, Albrecht. Mesmerized by her beauty and innocence, Albrecht disguises himself as a peasant and promises eternal love to Giselle despite being betrothed to a Duke's daughter, Bathilde. Soon after, she discovers his deceit, and driven by grief, she kills herself with Albrecht's sword.

With love unrequited, she dies of a broken heart, much to the dismay of Albrecht who has only come to realize his true love for Giselle when he mourns for her at the tomb. In Giselle's melancholic world of vengeance and despair, she transforms from an innocent lady to a wilis, who are spirits of betrothed maidens betrayed by their beloved loves on the night before their wedding.

Giselle tackles the gamut of human emotions, delving into the darker shades of humanity, including elements of madness and revenge, thus making many critics refer to Giselle as ‘the Hamlet of ballets'.

Positive Vibrant

2010-01-06T12:49:00.004+07:00

Aren't we all want to be surrounded by positive news, positive outcome, positive people, positive thoughts and positive future? This is what I call positive vibrant. The most effective impetus to positive vibrant is Confidence. We all need positive vibrant in our lives to stay happy. When you are happy, you can certainly win a greater crowd.

How do we gain confidence in ourselves?
Being able to project a confident character for some people needs no effort.
As for me, confidence only come when I am in a good mood. This isn't good. Let me repeat, this is no good. That is why I am writing this memo today. I wanted to remind myself that my confidence is at stake. As I come across more confident people, I learned that you need not be well informed to be confident. All you need is to believe that you are better than the rest. Once you do, its' a free-flow reaction, just like the blood that flows through our vein every miniature second.

Pursuing confidence is everybody's business. I do not think that conquering our fear as a path to gaining confidence. It maybe for some people but not for me. Gaining confidence is simply believing that we are better than the rest. Of course, to believe that we are better than the rest, we have to start by improving ourselves and never stop developing our three greatest gifts. Intelligence, communication and passion.

Achieving intelligence takes 99 percent of perspiration and 1 percent of inspiration, according to Thomas Edison.

Achieving good communication takes great patience in listening and courage to try.

Passion is something that will make us shine and a passion can be developed into talent if only we make an effort to do it

the new Apple

2009-12-14T21:53:00.001+07:00

The new Apple iPhone, available in U.K. from July 2008, is a combined
mobile phone, iPod and web browser, using the 3G phone network for
faster surfing of the internet. Initially O2, Apple's exclusive UK mobile
phone partner, charged customers an up-front fee for the iPhone, but it
could soon be offered for free for those who pay a tariff of £75 a month. It
could also be available on a pay-as-you-go basis. The new phone has
sold well in the United States, but sales in Europe have been slow owing
to the high price. Also the price of the older 8GB version has been
drastically reduced making it a more attractive option for some buyers.

Selected Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Quotations

2009-12-03T10:17:00.004+07:00

Even though people may be well known, they hold in their hearts the emotions of a simple person for the moments that are the most important of those we know on earth: birth, marriage and death.

• I want to live my life, not record it.

• Being a reporter seems a ticket out to the world.

• When Harvard men say they have graduated from Radcliffe, then we've made it.

• There are many little ways to enlarge your child's world. Love of books is the best of all.

• I'll be a wife and mother first, then First Lady.

• The one thing I do not want to be called is First Lady. It sounds like a saddle horse.

• Now, I think that I should have known that he was magic all along. I did know it - but I should have guessed that it would be too much to ask to grow old with and see our children grow up together. So now, he is a legend when he would have preferred to be a man.

• I always wanted to be some kind of writer or newspaper reporter. But after college... I did other things.

• There are two kinds of women: those who want power in the world, and those who want power in bed.

• I think the best thing I can do is to be a distraction. A husband lives and breathes his work all day long. If he comes home to more table thumping, how can the poor man ever relax?

• Being away from home gave me the chance to look at myself with a jaundiced eye. I learned not to be ashamed of a real hunger for knowledge, something I had always tried to hide, and I came home glad to start in here again with a love for Europe that I am afraid will never leave me.

Happiness

2009-11-27T22:16:00.003+07:00

Dogs give unjudgmental smiles ~ at the sight of you, they would wag their tail and stick their tongue out as if saying HELLO kissme! touch me! walk with me! just look at me! and came running towards you....

It isn't what you have or who you are or where you are or what you are doing that makes you happy or unhappy. It is what you think that decide whether you are happy or not. Make yourself think that you are happy, and believe it or not, you will be happy.

This is why, there is a blank in my happiness equation , its' perpetually changing like the weather

Biofuel in general

2009-11-26T22:16:00.001+07:00

Biofuels are now being used worldwide and supporters claim that they are a sustainable, renewable and cleaner alternative to traditional fossil fuels like coal and petroleum, supplies of which are becoming exhausted. Biofuels are increasingly used in the transportation sector. The main producers of biofuels are in Asia, Europe and America. They can be produced from any carbon source including landfill gasses and recycled vegetable oil but most of the biofuel produced around the world is derived from photosynthetic plants. The two main types of plant used in production are those high in sugar, which are fermented to produce ethanol, and those high in oil which have the oil extracted and heated to reduce viscosity. Burning biofuels releases the same amount of CO2 that the plants took out of the environment when growing so there is no net increase in levels of atmospheric carbon.
