No.4 is my favourite.. =)

What does Love mean?

A group of professional people posed this question to a group of 4 to 8 year-olds, "What does love mean?"

The answers they got were broader and deeper than anyone could have imagined. See what you think:

1. "When my grandmother got arthritis, she couldn't bend over and paint her toenails anymore. So my grandfather does it for her all the time, even when his hands got arthritis too. That's love." Rebecca- age 8




2. "When someone loves you, the way they say your name is different. You just know that your name is safe in their mouth." Billy - age 4




3. "Love is when a girl puts on perfume and a boy puts on shaving cologne and they go out and smell each other." Karl - age 5




4. "Love is when you go out to eat and give somebody most of your French fries without making them give you any of theirs." Chrissy - age 6




5. "Love is what makes you smile when you're tired." Terri - age 4




6. "Love is when my mommy makes coffee for my daddy and she takes a sip before giving it to him, to make sure the taste is OK." Danny - age 7




7. "Love is when you kiss all the time. Then when you get tired of kissing, you still want to be together and you talk more. My Mommy and Daddy are like that. They look gross when they kiss" Emily - age 8




8. "Love is what's in the room with you at Christmas if you stop opening presents and listen." Bobby - age 7




9. "If you want to learn to love better, you should start with a friend who you hate," Nikka - age 6




10. "Love is when you tell a guy you like his shirt, then he wears it everyday." Noelle - age 7




11. "Love is like a little old woman and a little old man who are still friends even after they know each other so well." Tommy - age 6




12. "During my piano recital, I was on a stage and I was scared. I looked at all the people watching me and saw my daddy waving and smiling. He was the only one doing that. I wasn't scared anymore." Cindy - age 8




13. "My mommy loves me more than anybody . You don't see anyone else kissing me to sleep at night." Clare - age 6




14. "Love is when Mommy gives Daddy the best piece of chicken." Elaine - age 5




15. "Love is when Mommy sees Daddy smelly and sweaty and still says he is handsomer than Robert Redford." Chris - age 7




16. "Love is when your puppy licks your face even after you left him alone all day." Mary Ann - age 4




17. "I know my older sister loves me because she gives me all her old clothes and has to go out and buy new ones." Lauren - age 4




18. "When you love somebody, your eyelashes go up and down and little stars come out of you." Karen - age 7




19. "Love is when Mommy sees Daddy on the toilet and she doesn't think it's gross." Mark - age 6




20. "You really shouldn't say 'I love you' unless you mean it. But if you mean it, you should say it a lot. People forget." Jessica - age 8

And the final one -- Author and lecturer Leo Buscaglia once talked about a contest he was asked to judge. The purpose of the contest was to find the most caring child.

The winner was a four year old child whose next door neighbor was an elderly gentleman who had recently lost his wife. Upon seeing the man cry, the little boy went into the old gentleman's yard, climbed onto his lap, and just sat there. When his Mother asked what he had said to the neighbor, the little boy said, "Nothing, I just helped him cry"

a lesson regarding $

well i guess education is good.. it'll probabaly reduce fraud cases.. hopefully.. in hope of building a more peaceful world.. (haha.. k.. i'm jus crapping coz i'm bored at work today)..

well in case you dunno.. this is for real.. jus came across a chq case..

you guys ever wonder why u cancel the word 'Bearer' on the chq.. well it says it all.. the person (any person) who holds that piece of paper can have the $.. Regardless of who the payee's name is on the chq.. but becoz the chq is crossed for a/c payee only.. the holder of the chg can only bank it to AN account (any account).. so.. there is a record of who takes the money.. n i'm jus wondering when the Payer reports the case to police(which they say they r goning to).. i wonder if the person will get into trouble?

stay tune for more updates.. if i have them..

aftereffects

after spending ALL my time on the jap flash cards.. now.. stoned.. sleep deprivation..

;

after 7 yrs of inactivity.. i wonder if i can brace myself in 2 days n bring myself safely from home to Yishun n back.. .. practise!!! no other way i guess..

all my time

i'm now spending all my spare time sleep time relaxing time writing out n sorting out Jap Vocab, Verb, Noun, Adj, Conjunctions into sets for easy memorising..

now the motivation comes from spending so much time on it.. sigh.. n i'm toking abt ALOT of time..

another stoopid thing i cannot get over is.. when i went bali.. while having dina one day.. my bf(fluent in jap) tok to a waitress(local-indonesian) n a tour agent(local-indonesian too) in jap.. n bcoz neither can i fully understand nor speak a proper jap sentence in sync with my thought process.. i jus sat there eating my dina quietly.. while they jus rattle off..

its like SO MANY ppl down there speak japanese.. sigh..

judgement day

if i cannot bring happiness in my way.. then u probably dun need mi.. let tis b our final sweet memory then.. tis is wat i think.. tis is wat i believe too.. if u tink only 1 party suffers.. think again..

ALL DOWN THE DRAIN..

since yr2000.. i spent my hrs gg for an impossible exam.. after doing it On n Off for 4yrs.. n only achiving 7 out of 14 papers(it is NOT 50% left coz rem the starting paper shd b easier then the later part)..

so i decided give myself a real break from the horrors of self demoralisation.. yr2004 i adopt a wait n see attitude.. by mid yr i was sure that i shd not let exams kill my self-esteem.. but at the same time.. i discovered the papers i pass can b of use toge with 1yr experience..

now 1yr later(not gaining the experience yet.. but writing the experience shdnt b a prob!! =P).. i was told i still lack of 1 paper.. now it was a printing mistake on that official magazine(giving me the illusion i'm qualified).. anyway now the qns is.. slog for another paper (toge with alot of fees to pay) to get a might-not-b-used qualification??.. OR jus flash the 7 papers' Passes down the toilet bowl n forget abt the whole thing??.. sigh.. wat wld u do.. ARGHHH...

seeking the best distributation..

hard as i tried.. i can nvr get the best distribution..

i tried hard to divide my precious evenings among so many things..

2 evenings to climbing.. 1 evening to jap class.. n the remaining 2 evenings n 2 weekends to b spread to my bf n family(occassional showing face n the luxury of homecooked food..), also at the back of my mind is a constant nag that i still hav an in-line skate, a swim, a jog n a jap revision session to b packed in each wk.. not forgeting an occasional catch-up movie or dina session w different clique of frens.. obviously all these are overflowing from my remaining 2 evenings n 2 wkends..

when time is already so tight.. u jus wonder y one hav to waste time showing face at home when it only leads to either 1 of the scenarios:-
1) helping w some housework..
2) continuing office unsettled stuff (puting in all the mental notes so that the next day u waste no time taking instructions)..
3) listening to mum (sometimes u really wanna spent time toking to her, yet everyting sounded like nags)..
4) listening to different family members quarelling
5) me end up being unhappy w either 1 of the family member..

everytime i am at home.. i feel sad n tired
everytime i am at home.. i tried to stay in my room jus to prevent encountering senario 4 n 5..
everytime i am at home.. i seek solaces in tv drama n my blog..
everytime i am at home.. i wonder wat's the diff whether i hav a family or not..
everytime i am at home.. i wonder where's the diff from working hrs..
everytime i am at home.. i wonder why i am home..

its jus weird

everybody seems to have start blogging now.. feel kinda weird to READ updates of ur old sch pals n yet u r not in contact for like 5-10yrs.. wonder how ppl feel when my blog was read..

new discovery..

yeah.. had a real shiok climbing session at yishun safra on SAT noon.. under the scorching sun.. half climbing.. half cooking ur hands on the burning tiles.. resulting in two 5-cent-coin-size blisters (burst n skin almost off.. b4 i even i realise i got blisters).. but THAT is not the main part..

climbing for so long.. i always been told that it is an anaerobic sports.. but on sat.. i was panting n panting.. during the climb.. after the climb n after belaying our dear fren.. not complaining.. but for his every move i have to do the set of belay steps TWICE.. while usually a half set was enough.. thks to his long legs n hands.. ..

was it aerobic all along but i dun realised or was it the age ting??.. n over the long weekend.. the word MID-twenties have left mi FOREVER.. *sad*
