The Best Way to Shake Off Stress

We've heard about many typical ways to manage stress. How many of us do really put them into practice? Well, exercising is actually the perfect way to release stress. And I've found some simple and cute steps of stress-releasing exercise. Let's do this. 

Step 1

Of course, breathe...inhale, exhale..

Step 2

Relax your neck and shoulders by doing this:

Step 3

Swing your arms and strike a pose!

Step 4

Move your body to the right, then to the left.

Step 5

Move again to the left and right again. Yeah that's right.

Step 6

Swing your arms lightly like you're going to fly without troubles.

Step 7

Shake your body a little bit, you know, to shake off the problems.

Step 8

Be aggressive! Throw your body away like nobody's watching. You can jump if you want.

Step 9

Turn your head around..

Step 10

Grab somebody and loosen up together. It'd be nice if you turn up music.

Step 11

Dance like Hawaiian hula girls.

Step 12

Last but not least, raise your hand up to sky and say "I am awesome!".

LOL. You can try these steps at home, office or anywhere. I hope you'll be free from any kind of stress. Heeeee......

Good luck, be happy and have a great weekend! ^^

All the Happiness

I somehow find that little kids are such remarkable resources for wonderment and ideas (such as now, as in writing :p). I love listening them talking so expressively and excitedly about things like their drawings, toys, favorite cartoons, etc.

It's not that I'm ready to have kids, duhhh. I've got 7 nephews and 4 nieces, 5 of them are still little, and the girls have been so close to me. I'm an observant, even at home. I see how they play and talk among them, which leads me to understand how their minds work.

I know this is just one of the finest thing. But I wish we're able to foster that child-like wonder in life, rather than becoming jaded, less satisfied by the most simple of things. I'm not saying that we have to act like kids. That's not what I meant. It's a perspective that we can look when uninspired, disinterested and hardened by trials of life.

It's easy to become cautious and weary of life. Being an adult comes with a lot of stress. Since we can't turn back the clock, I think it's important to keep the child-like trust and happy-go-luckiness alive within ourselves.

I hope you get yourself in awe this weekend and find excitement in something we usually find so normal. And I hope you could laugh like a child, a laughter that comes from your heart, healing your pains and worries with every gasp and squeal of happiness.

I wish you all the happiness. ^^

We Do What We Do

This is the best way to describe my field, because most people, even my family, thought it's all about cooking. We're not chefs, we're food technologists. 

Have a great time. I love you. ^^

P.S: Ramesh Kumar, whoever and wherever you are, the infographic is so cool, thank you for making it. 

The Lucky Ones

Love Like French

Tu me manques. Phonetically it'd be something like “too muh mahnk”.

It's the French way of saying “I miss you.”

But literally it could be translated to "you are missing from me.”

I've been told that the French-speaking people don't use this sentence or expression as casually as English-speaking people do. Well I'm not surprised.

If you feel that a part of you is physically missing, as in someone used to fill that space and now they're gone, it wouldn't be something you casually say like “missed you at lunch today.”

Anyway, I love that. 

You're missing from me. You're a part of me, essential to my being. You're like a limb, or an organ, or blood. I can't function without you. Okay that's too much. I don't mean to be so touchy-feely tonight. :p

Je t'aime. ^__^
