Online ‘Lover’ and blind date

July 11th, 2010

These days, with the advance of technologies such as MSN, social website and mobile phone broadband, meeting and chatting with online  strangers had become easier.

Have you ever got to know someone online and fell in love with him or her after a number of chat? The person could be putting on his/her best front e.g. introduce himself as some kind of attractive guy like working as a lawyer, pilot, business man, etc?  It is just so attractive that you finally gather your guts and attend the blind date with the party.

Blind date could be exciting (if the person is just what you have expected) or a complete disappointment to you. Just some precautionary measures for you, with the excitement of knowing opposite sex online, finding a listening ear to your lonely heart, you must always keep a boundary as it could be great dispointment if anything went wrong.

Care sharing with us your good and bad experience after your blind date with an online stranger? Does it ended happily or its a whole disappointing and terrible experience for you?

Obsessive Compulsive Behavior

July 7th, 2010

Obsessive Compulsive Behavior (ODB) has been classified as a mental disorder. These days, more and more people had contracted this ‘disease’. Comparing to the early days around 19th centuary, people had never heard of ODB, therefore it should be a modern  day ‘disease’. Has people contracted this due to too much of worries or too much emphasis on make no mistakes or hygiene? Lets look into some of these cases…

ODB Case 1

Lucy, a lady at her mid thirties,  who disclose that she has contracted ODB after being reprimanded by another department manager for forgetting to switch off the room lights during a long school holiday, wasting school electricity. After that incident, she contracted ODB that causes her to check again and again that room lights has been off, doors have been shut properly behave leaving the office. She check repeatedly, doing the same procedure, before leaving. She admit that there’s rise of anxiety while doing this repeated checking. When her colleague came to know about this, they spread it to other colleague, making her feeling embaress.

A solution has been provided by a sympathetic colleague: Check that lights are off and doors are shut just once and leave the place, not looking back anymore. Lucy tried and it works initially, but back to her bad habit again.

Another solution from a friend, let go of the fear. Lucy is still trying on it.

Lucy repel the idea of medication as she feel that it is artificial. If you have any natural remedy that can help her, do leave down your comments here.

The hot weather is unbearable these days…

April 3rd, 2010

After getting backstabbing from a colleague, feeling unwell due to the heavy menses, tire of the pushy people and sardin-pack MRT (Mass Rapid Transit), I have taken MC (medical leave) staying at home. The doctor has prescribed me some flu medicine, the weather is hot. The weather seems to get hotter and hotter comparing to the weather in the past five years. Has the weather changed? Will the prophercies of 2012 happen – end time, people start dying off  or contracting diseases due to the hot weather? I will soon put a weather link here to monitor the daily temperatures. Staying at home, watching the TV, episode after episode, stop watching only feeling headache. Sweating throughout, feeling my home is a sauna, until evening that  the weather started to cool off.  From news, it says that more people getting sick due to the hot weather.  I think it’s the lifestye that we are living that is making more people falling sick. We are having lunches outside the office -under the hot weather and going into the ‘fridge like’ office to do our work. The extremes change of outdoor (market/coffeeshop) and indoor (office) temperatures will easily make us fall sick. Don’t you think so?

Here’s the link to daily weather forecast!
