One more down and one more to go. To say truly, its really my most confident paper. At least I know I did my best and did well. Even if I made some mistakes, I can't be bothered with them hahaa. Its not that I want to be good in law subjects its just that I really can't get away with the word Law. Haha, look at my name (1), and my FYP tutor is a tax tutor (2). I just hope at least an A for this sem. Haha if I can get 2 As, then its better than ever. No Cs please! Hate to see the letter C.

Now is 6.40pm. A bit early for blog but.... I need to practice playing Gradius 5 later because I will be combining forces with my gaming buddy to fight those evil planes. I need to get my skills up first or else I might just saboh my friend on sat. Its time for GGAMES!!!

When I was on my way home, I happened to switch on my MP3 for Jay's songs. Somehow, it brought me back again and I felt that things happened just yesterday. Its a strange feeling. But I know it has happened far far ago, and I should enjoy my time now. Yup I did, and I really enjoy it..... when I'm busy. haha. Like what my friend said," you tend to think of singlehood when you are attached and think of finding one when you are single."

*Work hard and you'll see the fruits of labor* means tough on the process and sweet on the final results. Apply to everything. If you have "sweet on the process", then the results won't be that sweet anymore.

Create Your Own Oasis

Stress can prematurely age our mind and body. If not dealt with effectively, chronic stress and worrying can place undue strain upon our cardiovascular and immune systems. It can also make us prone to mood disorders and negatively affect our cognitive functions. Having a safe and comfortable place where we can relax and unwind can help improve our well-being and produce feelings of peace and tranquility.

Here are some easy ways to make your personal space a true comfort zone.

Your favorite music and natural sounds can help you relax and unwind. Sounds have the ability to alter our perceptions and instantly change our mood.

Live plants create a peaceful atmosphere. They improve the ambience and air quality of indoor environments, and induce a positive energy around them.

Soft and adjustable lighting can create a soothing atmosphere. Look for light bulbs that are bright, but not harsh. Being able to adjust the brightness of your lighting will give you more control of the mood of your space.

A fresh and pleasant fragrance can transport you to a peaceful place and time. Use air purifiers or essential oils to create the "aroma" you find most pleasing.

Place your furniture and other items to best fit your daily needs and actions. Personalize your space with things that invoke happy memories.

Use pillows and other soft materials to create a comfort zone. Our sense of touch has a powerful impact upon our feelings.

Bring the outdoors inside with shells, rocks, feathers, wood, leaves, and so on.

Take control of your surroundings, even when they are just a corner of a room or a desk at work. You can even use these steps when traveling to help you unwind. By creating your own personal oasis, you will be better able to relax and rejuvenate. A few changes may be all that you need to make yourself calm, peaceful, energized and inspired.

Hmmmmmmm..... create a forest in my room? Eeks.
