A touching letter

When you think you are too busy, hope this can remind you of something. While busy with my career, I get to talk and mingle with lovely and equally adorable couples who are about in their 60.

Latest: Triple-core laptop processors

Untrained laptop buyers usually does not look at the specs but rather will look at the brandnames of laptop. Such brand names may include toshiba, dell, acer and others. But, when you are asked whether to buy a dual-core or quad-core laptop, what would you choose?

Things that we really do not bravely say

These are compiled observations that I really find amusing when meeting new people. These are thoughts or ideas that are expressed after the persons who the message should be intended is about the distance from the earth to the moon away from us. 1. My officemate is a jerk. I don't like his/her attitude. These are usually said to neutral employees that are good listeners. If you don't like the other person, you have to deal with it yourself! 2. My boss is such a nonsense. All we do is work. work. work. Does he/she even stop? I'm tired. 3. I'm too talented for this work, and yet, I'm only earning this much?

You can exercise , talk your heart out over some coffee , or eat your way to a healthy you . You know, harboring negative feelings doesn't strike a good note to ones health. Things we do not bravely say may stick long
