It's a stay in course,which means i got to spend my nightsssss in Sembawang Camp. Well friends,do pray for me. Pray that i will be able to pass my first Driving Test(TP) so that after that,i will be able to stay out,just like office hours. Further more, i will be entitled with off days too as an incentive. Most of my camp mates (drivers), told me that it isn't easy,but i believe that by doing my best and leave the rest unto God,He will do the rest for me. The course itself last for 2 months plus,ends on 21/4/09, provided i do well in the course or else it will be extended (which i don't want). =p Though i'm inside,i will still continue to pray for you guys and i'm sure that when book out every weekend,i will be able to see more and more new friends in the cell group.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Definitely i will never forget to share with everyone of you how's my experience inside. Able to drive new vehicles that not other people are able to. i believe this driving course will be a fun and interesting and eye opening course for me. Looking so forward to see my friends once again regardless or Cell Group or sec or poly or outside friends or even army friends. I'm sure God will do miracles and wonders in my life. Looking forward to be accepted by one of the University(s) (NTU,NUS) too! Guess without a degree certificate, it will be hard for me to look for jobs. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wishing all of my friends all the best and i will update my blog once again whenever i'm free to share with all of you what's happening around me. Take care and God bless every single one of you!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;CHEERS!&lt;br /&gt;-Pastaboy&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2513631374177535549-8212961937697069099?l=pastaboy.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pastaboy.blogspot.com/feeds/8212961937697069099/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2513631374177535549&amp;postID=8212961937697069099' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2513631374177535549/posts/default/8212961937697069099'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2513631374177535549/posts/default/8212961937697069099'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pastaboy.blogspot.com/2009/02/course-is-here-once-again.html' title='Course is here once again.'/><author><name>Evan-no</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06267771718062292428</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_NtWNRlSAjCE/SZKtwlQ2FCI/AAAAAAAAAAs/cRAf9rkgshU/s72-c/14576034744699l.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2513631374177535549.post-7272376201566767600</id><published>2009-01-17T10:40:00.002+08:00</published><updated>2009-01-17T10:53:05.381+08:00</updated><title type='text'>Nice Weather!</title><content type='html'>These days the weather sure is good. It feels so cooling especially at night. Just now i told my mum that this weather seems to be like what it is like in Australia. Though you are able to see the sun shining brightly,yet there's cold air blowing on and on. How i wish this lovely weather will sustain for a long time. Lately I've been on MC for quite some time due to my severe eye infection. Now my eyes seems to be one big and one small,and the vision on my left eye(which is the smaller one)seems to be blurred. I do not know how long it will last, but hope it will get better as time goes by. Recently i just passed my Final Theory Test for driving and the feeling was great! This allows me to proceed on to my driving test which means i do not have to read those books and memorize those questions and answers again and all i need to do is to focus on my driving skills. As i confessed and prayed to God that i will obtain my license before June 09. I believe God's blessing will be upon me and i can do it! Chinese New Year is coming, so before i go, i will like to wish every single one out there a Happy Chinese New Year, hope you guys will receive lots of "Ang Bao" with lots of money inside though this year's economic doesn't seems to be good. ^^ Take Care everyone and God bless you!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cheers!&lt;br /&gt;-Pastaboy&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2513631374177535549-7272376201566767600?l=pastaboy.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pastaboy.blogspot.com/feeds/7272376201566767600/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2513631374177535549&amp;postID=7272376201566767600' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2513631374177535549/posts/default/7272376201566767600'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2513631374177535549/posts/default/7272376201566767600'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pastaboy.blogspot.com/2009/01/nice-weather.html' title='Nice Weather!'/><author><name>Evan-no</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06267771718062292428</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2513631374177535549.post-6786408383222810617</id><published>2008-12-28T12:12:00.004+08:00</published><updated>2008-12-28T12:32:29.810+08:00</updated><title type='text'>Wedding!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_NtWNRlSAjCE/SVcBV3WgLhI/AAAAAAAAAAc/6UzmCayYiCw/s1600-h/Picture+076.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_NtWNRlSAjCE/SVcBV3WgLhI/AAAAAAAAAAc/6UzmCayYiCw/s320/Picture+076.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5284694162889780754" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Recently went to attend Barry's Wedding Matrimony and it was magnificent. Seeing another friend getting married,i felt really happy for them. It's easy to find a girl to be with, but it's not easy to find the girl that suits you. During the Matrimony, i can feel the love between them,seeing such a matching couple walking down the pathway and hearing the church bells chimes. As for their wedding photos are rather unique and interesting i should say. Though i do not have the chance to take a picture with him and his lovely wife,it's alright, as i believe next time when we meet up for meals with the rest of our friends, we'll be able to catch up more with each other. Barry is someone who've taught me lots of things. Regardless of work or not. Well Barry, i hereby wishes you and Isabella a great and fruitful marriage and God bless the both of you! Take care and see ya soon!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2513631374177535549-6786408383222810617?l=pastaboy.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pastaboy.blogspot.com/feeds/6786408383222810617/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2513631374177535549&amp;postID=6786408383222810617' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2513631374177535549/posts/default/6786408383222810617'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2513631374177535549/posts/default/6786408383222810617'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pastaboy.blogspot.com/2008/12/wedding.html' title='Wedding!'/><author><name>Evan-no</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06267771718062292428</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_NtWNRlSAjCE/SVcBV3WgLhI/AAAAAAAAAAc/6UzmCayYiCw/s72-c/Picture+076.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2513631374177535549.post-5951036299095692135</id><published>2008-12-01T21:30:00.005+08:00</published><updated>2008-12-01T22:21:32.238+08:00</updated><title type='text'>Trying something new.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_NtWNRlSAjCE/STPoPGUV_jI/AAAAAAAAAAM/7Xk_O1m1RU4/s1600-h/Pasta.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 271px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_NtWNRlSAjCE/STPoPGUV_jI/AAAAAAAAAAM/7Xk_O1m1RU4/s320/Pasta.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5274814934672604722" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Its been quite awhile ever since i last draw.

Only one word can be used to describe is,which is "UNBELIEVABLE"! People from all 37 countries in asia came down for it and on top of that, people from 72 countries came down too. Singapore Expo, which is the location, is fully packed and i mean REAL PACKED. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;         This conference took place from Wednesday Morning till Sunday night and everyday without fail, people are attending all the services and elective workshops that are being organized by our church. Powerful speakers like Pastor Phil Pringle and his lovely wife Pastor Christine Pringle, Pastor Ulf Ekman, Pastor Benny Hinn, Dr A.R.Bernard and our very own Pastor, Rev Kong Hee. All the services never failed to touch and change people's life. All of them are so anointed that all of us are impacted by the word of God. I tried to go for almost all the session and indeed, it is a physical challenge for me. From Thursday till Saturday, i have quite a bad headache cos i lack of rest, but it never fails to pull me down from going for services. All my effort are not wasted as during this sensational conference, i learned a lot and i can feel that my life is changing. God is doing and is going to do something miracle in my life and i believe that i will not be the old Ivan i used to be. Signs and wonders will take place and people around me will be tremendously blessed. Just by this conference itself, i feel that my spiritual life is unlike before, but it has grow a lot stronger. Praying for a long time is not much a problem for me compared to before.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;         God indeed is a great God. He never fails to be there for me. Comfort me everytime when i am down and when i need Him most. Further more, now is also the Arise and Build season for our church and truely, it takes a lot of faith for us to give the offering as during Pastor Benny Hinn healing service, he challenge us to give an amount unto the Lord and he will prayed for the people who step this faith towards God and i did. To what i believe, money is something material and temprary, but the trust and Faith towards God and the blessing from Him are eternal. I know that i'm not throwing my money into the well, but i am blessing the needy and on top of that, i am giving unto God. I'm sure that my friends, my family, my love ones, will be bless tremendously. This Asia Conference is the best conference and Pastor Phil mention that this conference had make a history.

Poly life has come to an end for me, but! This is just the beginning for me. For most guys who have completed your JC or Poly, did you hear someone calling you? It’s the ARMY! Its time to serve the nation and be what they call “real MAN”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After graduated from poly, I think that army is still somehow a distance for me. “Still left a few months, a long time to go la” always said by me. But I didn’t expect that this day will come so fast. Now all I can say is “next week going in liao… S&amp;S (Sad &amp; Sian)”. Furthermore, I’m serving an extra month due to the exceed value for my BMI. 4 months BMT… Hmm… guess its time for me to say “bye” to my fats and “welcome” to my muscles.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Knowing nothing about what is it going to be like in the army, I went to watch the local show called “Army Daze” and more or less know what’s going on inside. This show never fails to make me laugh every time I watch it. It’s really funny and interesting to see what they do inside. Though it may seem to be bit lame or dumb, but it sure tells us how the BMT is like in the army. While watching this show, it enthusiast me and make me feel like going in soon, but I know that once you get in, you will be sad as you will be bored with those workouts, command and you will miss your family members and friends for sure. I don’t know about others, but I will miss my family, my friends and especially miss my girlfriend the most.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;National Service (NS), every guy have to get through before stepping out to the outside world. No matter how hard it is, guess I have to persevere and hang on. Though I am feeling upset somehow now as I’m going to miss my girl, but 4 months BMT will be over real soon. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I hereby like to tell my girl that “don’t be sad my dear. I know it is hard for you as we won’t be seeing each other for quite sometime, but after two weeks, you will be able to come and visit me. I really wish to see you here during the visitation with my parents. I know it is hard for you to take off, but I really wish to see you. Though I’m not there physically, but I’m always there in your heart and same to you, you will always be there in my heart which will be motivating me through my army life. I know its going to be hard on you but jus bear with it. The third week I will be able to come out during weekends and when BMT is over I will know my posting and God will put me where I’m supposed to be at. I’m sure it will not be a bad one. If you got anything to share regardless of happy or sad stuff, when I’m out during the weekends, tell me everything and definitely I will be there to listen to whatever you want to say. Once I’m out of the army, I will work hard for the wonderful future that you and I have planned. Sorry to keep you waiting my love, but trust me that your "waiting" will be something so great as it will be a blessing for you. Pastors always said that in order to bless yourself, you have to bless others, and through this, you’ve blessed me with your waiting time, so in return, I believe you will be blessed a hundred fold too. When I’m in the army, I’m sure I will change, change for the good and not for the bad. And I believe that you will change for the good as well. Take this as a test for our relationship. Like I said on the top, time flies and jus another blink, I will be out of NS. Take good care of yourself and be strong. God bless you. MUACKS &amp; HUGS!!! ^_^ ”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That’s what I know for the army and when I’m out during the third week, I will share with all of you what’s actually in there. Thanks everyone and God bless you. ^^&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;See you guys soon,signing off here.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cheers!&lt;br /&gt;-Pastaboy&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2513631374177535549-3436566929054478672?l=pastaboy.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pastaboy.blogspot.com/feeds/3436566929054478672/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2513631374177535549&amp;postID=3436566929054478672' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2513631374177535549/posts/default/3436566929054478672'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2513631374177535549/posts/default/3436566929054478672'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pastaboy.blogspot.com/2008/05/time-flies.html' title='Time Flies'/><author><name>Evan-no</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06267771718062292428</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2513631374177535549.post-6520282386739633843</id><published>2008-02-26T00:53:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2008-02-26T00:56:42.279+08:00</updated><title type='text'>New Year's Weight Loss</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;New Year's Weight Loss: 6 Tips &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;93% of users found this article helpful.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is a time-honored tradition to make resolutions at this time of year. If your resolution is to lose weight - and keep it off, then keep reading! Here are six simple tips that will have you losing weight in a balanced and healthy way. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;1. Lose weight with water.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Water is essential for everybody - it is also the key to losing weight. If you haven't been drinking enough water, your body has developed a pattern of storing water. This water retention equals extra unwanted weight. &lt;br /&gt;By drinking more water, you are not only flushing out toxins, you are also teaching your body that it no longer needs to store water. Drink at least 60 ounces of water (about 8 glasses) a day. Boil water and sliced lemons, and drink this throughout the day to help with fluid retention. If you are still not sold on the merits of water, try this on for size: water is a natural appetite suppressant.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;2. Soup up your weight loss program.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A simple dietary change will have you shedding pounds: eat a bowl of soup at least once a day. Nutritious, low-salt soups will nourish you as they flush waste from your body. People who eat a serving of soup daily lose more weight than those who eat the same amount of calories but don't eat soup. Go for homemade soup whenever possible, as canned soups are loaded with salt and chemicals.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;3. Eat early to keep weight off.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The human body follows a circadian rhythm, which means that the same foods eaten at breakfast and lunch are processed differently than when eaten at dinner. Studies show that when you eat your daily protein and fat at breakfast you tend to lose weight and have more energy; however, eating the same things at dinner tend to increase tendencies toward weight gain. I suggest that you eat your last meal of the day by 7 p.m. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;4. Eat smaller meals, more frequently.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Follow an eating schedule with five little meals every day. Eating steadily through the day keeps you from becoming famished and overeating at your next meal. Make a low-fat trail mix from raw almonds, pumpkin seeds, dried plum, and apples and have it available at all times to avoid the tempting lure of high-calorie snacks. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;5. Adopt a balanced approach to your diet.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Most of the fad diet programs out there nowadays are extreme in a few recommended foods, or else deprive the body of food altogether. This works in opposition to our metabolism and the results usually don't last, producing a yoyo effect that depresses your metabolic function - not to mention your self-esteem. We are natural beings that need a balance of nutrition from all sources. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Your diet should consist of a balance of organic sources of lean protein, complex carbohydrates, whole grains, legumes, nuts, fruits, and vegetables. Instead of white rice and pasta, opt for brown rice, bulgur, millet, or buckwheat. &lt;br /&gt;Eat more green, chlorophyll-rich foods such as broccoli, kale, spinach, and asparagus. Eliminate candy, sugar, soda, and all simple sugars from your diet. Excess sugar ends up being stored as fat in your body, which results in weight gain. Also, keep dairy to a minimum because most dairy products are high in saturated fat. Avoid fatty foods, processed or fried foods.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;6. Walk off the weight.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The No. 1 cause of weight gain is inactivity. Physical activity is the key to speeding up your metabolism and burning excess calories. The best way to be physically active is to use your legs! Walk as often and as long as you can. Always take the stairs instead of the elevator. &lt;br /&gt;Step outside during your break at work and take a walk around your building. Consider joining a local hiking club. Try taking a walk 30 minutes in the morning or 30 minutes in the early evening.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I hope this article helps you shed some pounds and add on the years!

Hardly an enviable position, the decision to break up with someone can breed feelings of guilt, paralysis and depression.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To alleviate some of this anxiety, here's a list of 5 questions to ask yourself before you give someone the boot.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Question 1: Has There Been a Major Change in My Life?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;"Relocation, career change, an illness -- any of these factors can trigger problems in a relationship."&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Relocation, career change, an illness -- any of these factors can trigger problems in a relationship. If you're stressed out about something, be it a job or family problem, it's all too tempting to generalize these feelings to include your partner. It's very easy to think that if you got out of this relationship you would feel better. In reality, you need to deal with the problem rather than blame it on your partner.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Question 2: What's My Happiness Ratio?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Being blissfully in love with your partner 24/7 is a wonderful concept in theory, but as we all know, real-world relationships rarely live up to these expectations. Many people assume that they have to be 100 percent satisfied with their partners in order to stick with them, but good luck ever finding this perfect scenario!A better strategy would be to adopt the 80 percent rule. Ask yourself:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;"Am I satisfied with my partner 80 percent of the time or more?"&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Am I satisfied with my partner 80 percent of the time or more? If the answer is yes, then you're working with pretty good odds. If the answer is no, you may want to consider moving on.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Question 3: Is He/She Abusive? &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Abusive behavior comes in many forms. There's physical abuse where someone hits, slaps or shoves you. A verbally abusive partner degrades you with harsh words and insults. And the most difficult to identify and pinpoint: psychological abuse. This form of abuse can involve overly controlling behavior, emotional blackmail, and episodes of extreme jealousy. If your partner engages in any of the above behavior, don't just walk -- run from the relationship.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Question 4: Have I Expressed My Frustration?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Many of us think that if our partner was right for us, he/she would be able to understand our needs intuitively without us ever having to communicate. While it would be great if our partners could just read our minds, the truth is that few of us are telepathic.Good communication is required in every relationship. So before you give your partner their walking papers, make sure to discuss your doubts and concerns so they have a chance to make it up to you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;"So before you give your partner their walking papers, make sure to discuss your doubts and concerns so they have a chance to make it up to you."&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Question 5: Am I Willing to Work at It?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Whatever your gripes or complaints, there's one factor that can make or break your union: your mutual desire to work on the relationship. If you're not both committed to improving your quality of life together, there's very little hope for the future.And remember, actions speak louder than words. If both of you make a concerted effort to work on the relationship and make the necessary changes that are required, there's really no reason to call it quits.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cheers!&lt;br /&gt;-Pastaboy&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2513631374177535549-4873633555321793195?l=pastaboy.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pastaboy.blogspot.com/feeds/4873633555321793195/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2513631374177535549&amp;postID=4873633555321793195' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2513631374177535549/posts/default/4873633555321793195'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2513631374177535549/posts/default/4873633555321793195'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pastaboy.blogspot.com/2008/02/consider-these-questions-before-having.html' title='Consider these Questions before Having a Break-off'/><author><name>Evan-no</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06267771718062292428</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2513631374177535549.post-4987471645258066004</id><published>2008-02-20T00:11:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2008-02-20T00:24:47.388+08:00</updated><title type='text'>Bride dies during marriage's first dance</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;Bride dies during marriage's first dance&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;DAVIE, Fla. - Kim Sjostrom wanted a real-life version of the film "My Big Fat Greek Wedding," which played in the background as friends fixed her hair and makeup before her own marriage ceremony.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But less than an hour after she and Teddy Efkarpides were wed, Sjostrom crumpled in her husband's arms during a Greek song that means "Love Me."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At 36, Sjostrom was dead from heart disease.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The wedding had became a project at Davie Elementary School, where Sjostrom taught first grade. Fellow teachers provided the wedding gown, the flowers and decorations. One of them, an ordained minister, performed the ceremony.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"It was perfect for her," said Dominic Church, the minister friend.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sjostrom carried blue and white flowers during the ceremony — the colors of the Greek flag — as she exchanged vows with Efkarpides, a 43-year-old carpenter and Navy veteran. They had met three years to the day before the Jan. 19 wedding.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;During the couple's first dance, Sjostrom complained of being lightheaded. Efkarpides thought his wife, a diabetic, needed sugar, but she collapsed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wedding guests, paramedics and doctors at a nearby hospital were unable to revive her.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She had a previous cardiac episode in her 20s and was a poster child — literally — for juvenile diabetes, relatives and friends said. Efkarpides recalled seeing the poster featuring her on New York subways.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He consoles himself by reading a list of "101 Reasons Why I Love You" that Sjostrom gave him their first Christmas together. "Number 1.

One day, Susan was feeling uncomfortable with her eyes and the next moment, her vision went off and was very shocked. Knowing her situation, Mark brought her to the doctor immediately to check what has actually happen to her. After several checkups, the doctor then realize that they made a mistake during her past checkup as previously she had some visual problems. Because of improper treatment, it causes her to lose her sight. As this incident was a sudden for her, a successful women end up becoming blind, she couldn’t take it but to lock herself in the room shouting and throwing her temper to everyone that were around her, including her Mark. Mark did not give up on her but continuously encouraging and giving her all his support.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Until one day, the wife finally simmers down and told Mark that she wants to go back to work. Mark fetched her to and fro from work everyday and make sure tat she reaches her office safely before he headed to his workplace. The journey between Susan’s workplace to the military side where Mark is working at is way too far apart and it is pretty tiring for him to do this forever. Mark thinks that Susan has to stand up on her own and try to go to her workplace herself instead on relying so much on him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Though this thinking came into his mind, but he does not dare to tell her because he’s afraid that imaginations will run wild in Susan’s thinking due to the sudden incident which had already shocked her life. But he finds that Susan should actually accept this and be much more stronger than she used to be, so one day, he sit beside her and tell her that she have to get up on her own and be strong and start to travel to work herself instead of relying too much on him. When Susan heard this, she got so agitated and she scolded him, saying that he does not care for her and love her anymore. When Mark hears those words, he got so upset and depressed, just like hundreds or thousands of sharp edges sword had just pierce through his heart. But nonetheless, Mark does not let her words affect him that much and continue support her and give her the helping hand that she needs. So Mark told her that he will company her to take bus from their home to her workplace before heading to work.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For the two solid weeks, Mark, wearing his uniform, held her wife safely and carefully, waiting for the bus, boarding the bus and company her all the way to her office and ensures tat she reaches her workplace safely. He also introduce the bus captain to his wife, seeking help from the bus captain to tell her where to alight and what to do n stuff when on bus and also teaching her how to make full use of her other four senses.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Finally one day, Susan hugged Mark tightly with tears flowing down her cheek, thank him for everything he did and told him that she's ready to get to work on her on&lt;br /&gt;Though the journey was long, Susan doesn’t give up but constantly trying her best to get to work on her own. As time goes by, Susan is getting used to it and is able to travel on own safely. She was so happy and starts gaining back all her confidence. It’s been a week plus and everything seems to be going on smoothly for her.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So one day while she’s boarding the bus which she always takes to work, the bus captain suddenly says:&lt;br /&gt;"You're sure a blessed and lucky lady."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Susan was rather curious who is he actually talking to, so she decides to reply back:&lt;br /&gt;“Why is the lady lucky?”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"There's a very fine and young handsome looking guy, wearing an Air-Force uniform, always stand at the opposite side of the road/ bus-stop. He will ensure that this lady will board the right bus number and make sure that she board it carefully, then after he saw her boarded the bus safely, and look at the bus drives off, he will then give a ‘fly-kiss’ to the lady and salute to her before he went off."&lt;br /&gt;The bus captain replied.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When Susan heard it, tears flows down her cheek continuously and she finally realize that for this past one week, Mark had been looking upon her like an angel looking by her side, ensuring her safety before going to work. She got so touched and felt so bad and sorry for those mean things that she had said to Mark previously. And from then on, she realizes that she was the luckiest and blessed wife/ women in the entire world.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Moral of the story:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Love is not a word that comes out from the mouth, but an unconditional love that is expressed by actions from one to another…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cheers!&lt;br /&gt;-Pastaboy&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2513631374177535549-1957579350314799791?l=pastaboy.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pastaboy.blogspot.com/feeds/1957579350314799791/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2513631374177535549&amp;postID=1957579350314799791' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2513631374177535549/posts/default/1957579350314799791'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2513631374177535549/posts/default/1957579350314799791'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pastaboy.blogspot.com/2008/02/this-is-what-love-is-all-about.html' title='This is what Love is all about'/><author><name>Evan-no</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06267771718062292428</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2513631374177535549.post-4554882145214227454</id><published>2008-01-20T18:44:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2008-01-20T18:50:56.994+08:00</updated><title type='text'>Apologies</title><content type='html'>Hi guys, so sorry for not posting my blog.

Couples &amp; Wedding</title><content type='html'>Hey Guys!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sorry as i have not post for quite awhile. Just to inform you guys once again that i will update this blog weekly. Sorry to keep you waiting. Recently, quite a number of my friends got married. I was wondering, is this month or period a wedding period? Well, to be honest, all of their wedding are great. I find that wedding is a sacred and wonderful thing. Both couple make their vows, two hearts combined to become one in Christ. This day mean a lot for a girl i must say. The day that they long for, marrying the guy they love and live with them forever. It is a once in a lifetime thing for them, definitely they must treasure this romantic moment. Same for guys, you have to treasure it as well. Spending the rest of your life with your lovely wife is something important too.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some, but not all the guys prefer to stay alone for the rest of their live, thinking that they can by changing girlfriend like once a month or once a year is an enjoyable moment in his life. i strongly believe that for guys, the first think that comes into their mind is sex, but think twice or even thrice, changing girlfriend, or sleeping with different girls really satisfied you? I understand it might not be easy for a guy to stare at the same thing for the rest of his life as you will get bored with it, but think again, your girlfriend, or your wife is not a thing. They are human and they have feelings too. Instead of feeling bored, why not think of ways to make them happy or think of ways to woo them again, just like the first time you woo her. Putting in so much effort to catch her attention and to say:"yes" to be with you (for some). Changing of girlfriend can allow you to feel the love or the feeling of being love?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In a relationship, quarrels will never be missed out. Some of it might be major, and some might be just minor things. And when quarreling, both parties will tend to think of the negative side of one another. Digging out all the bad points or the past incidents to quarrel with each other, trying to see who will win the fight. Well, it doesn't mean that it is wrong for a couple to quarrel, just that quarreling is the way for both the guy and the girl to know and learn more from each other. When both are at the fighting period, try to think of the good times both of you had together. Learn to give and take equally for both parties, thus this will helped a lot in a relationship. As we know that it takes two hands to clap, if one is not doing his/ her job, how can a clap be done? This applies to a relationship. Well, i should say that it is easy for one to find a girlfriend or a boyfriend, but it is very hard for one to find the person that suits you. There is no rush when come to find a soul mate, everything takes time and when the time comes, you will find your Miss/ Mr Right.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There's a saying says that: &lt;strong&gt;"Behind every successful man, there will be a successful woman"&lt;/strong&gt; . This means that behind every successful husband, there will be a successful wife, who will be behind the husband, supporting them, helping and serving them. Most of the time, guys will be the breadwinner who brings the income back for the family and trust me ladies, it is not an easy task at all. Guys have to do their best to provide for the family, giving them the best that they want. Sometimes guy will be at their lowest point of mood, so girlfriends/wives out there, show them the love and give them the moral support they need. Instead of nagging them or scolding children when they come back from work. This will make them more frustrated and don't feel like coming back home. Try to ask them how's their work and make them feel how much you love and care for them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is true that the wife should submit themselves to their husband when they got married, but that doesn't mean that they should be the slave for their husband. Same for the husband, they should love and treasure their wife but not asking them or ordering them to do things. Pamper your wife and try to discover or observed what they like and get for them. It is something that husbands should do for their lovely wives. Get them a little gifts at times to thank them for all the things that they have done for you. Make them happy and make them the most fortunate wife in this world.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is never easy for a couple to maintain their relationship, but it is not too hard either. Communication is the key for everything. when both of you have problems, talk it out nicely instead of shouting and yelling like nobody business. Do not quarrel in the public as it is not an act or drama for everyone to see, unless you want to be part in star search. Look at the bright side of life and bright side of your relationship. Sometimes we know that the boyfriend or the girlfriend is treating our friend badly, yet they still want to be with them and love them. Please do not blame or scold them, because as we know &lt;strong&gt;love is blind&lt;/strong&gt;, that is why they are so willing to hang on to their relationship. The most we can do is to listen to them and giving them advise and let them decide on how they want to handle it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So all the people who are married and attached, i hope these little things can help you somehow. It might be tough for the rest of your life, as both of you might/will be facing more and more difficulties, but i hereby pray for all the couples that you will have a blissful and lovely marriage/relationship. Pray that you will love one another more and more, deeper and deeper, sweeter and sweeter.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;God bless you and have a great week ahead.&lt;br /&gt;-Pastaboy &lt;=^_'=&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2513631374177535549-1674854820418617932?l=pastaboy.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pastaboy.blogspot.com/feeds/1674854820418617932/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2513631374177535549&amp;postID=1674854820418617932' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2513631374177535549/posts/default/1674854820418617932'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2513631374177535549/posts/default/1674854820418617932'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pastaboy.blogspot.com/2007/11/2nd-update-couples-wedding.html' title='2nd Update!
