PLANT INSTINCT

Plants need water to grow.

When the water is abundant they grow more leaves and forget to produce fruits.

When the water is scarce they feel that they are going to die soon, they produce fruits to continue their generation. 

 

Just water your plants enough to keep their normal life!

I know nothing about technic and i understand computer language as well as i understand chinese language. So my decision really depended on the arguments people around gave me. My son was one of them, i have to say he really made the difference in my decision.I always had a PC and, and though i am not a computer freak, i could manage to work on without having too many problems.

Not worse than a Tsar

http://www.ekaterinburg.tv/images/Nikolai.jpgDid you know that the Russian Tsar Nikolai II had spoken at least three foreign languages besides Russian? He knew French, German and English, and his English was just perfect. Dutch was he knew a little bit worse.

You will say he was a Tsar. No doubts, the Russian Tsar gained an excellent education.

But there starts another interesting chain of facts concerning his language teacher, Maximilian Berlitz. I am not going to retell the whole Wiki article, Максимилиан Дельфиниус Берлиц.jpgbut the Tsar got an outstanding teacher and I

Being Away....

Being away from home, away from my family, is/was/will always be, an intricate experience for a home sick person like me.

My luck or my work which brought me to a new place demanded focus, perseverance, resolve, determination to concede and accept the fresh start to another life.

New surroundings, new folks, entirely different atmosphere, it all seemed too much to handle at first to me. But my goals were clear and precise, I was here for the betterment of my family.

We can gather all the fancies of

Finally, I can continue my second part of my blog post. In this blog post, I want to share my experience to develop my writing skill. Since there are various things that I do to improve my writing skill, I can't write them down in one article. It will be too long and boring.

So I divide them into 4 parts. Each part discusses one of four things that I do to improve my writing skill. On the first part, we discuss two grammar books that I recommend.



To remind you, here four simple things I do to i

This is the journal from my trip to Canada, which I took a month ago. 

Day One: Welcome to Toronto 

2346228439?profile=original

 

For quite some time I’d had it in mind to travel to Canada, to see Quebec perhaps, but in the final I decided on Toronto. I had heard about Niagara Falls, so I thought, “Why not?”

I have to admit that my trip wasn’t as well-organized as I would have liked. It was  rushed because I’d had a lot of work lately. However, it was not bad for my first time  traveling alone in an unfamiliar country whose la

Hello friends,

 

Since i arrived in Turkey a few days ago, it's impossible for me to open my hotmail emails box. Of course, you can imagine the problems it gives me. I am just wondering if it's an international problem or, if this is just located to the country i am in now. I have tried to open it in various ways, but it's no use, i can reach it and each time i try, i receive the same message :

Start Saving Up!

  The prices of commodities are zooming up as fast as the bullet trains. We should take considerations on saving money, petrol, electricity and water and take advantage the free health and community services offered by the government.

  On buying thing like clothes or gadgets, we must first ask ourselves if we really need it. Are you familiar in impulse buying? Sometimes, we only buy things just to spend or we think it look good to us. Not clearly thinking if it is essentially important. A typica

Did anyone watch Oprah's final show? I did. I even took a picture of my TV to capture the final moment. The only TV show I missed when I spent a year without TV was Oprah.

 

Why did I miss Oprah last year, and why will I miss her in the years to come? I used to think it was because Oprah offered a mini break from life. At 4:00 PM, for many years, I took a break from school, work, or motherhood to relax in front of the TV.  A few weeks ago, my husband hooked our TV back up for t

Last week I joined my class field lecture in Pacitan, East Java for a week. Well, we had so much activity to did and so less time for a rest. For each day we just had approximately 4 hours to sleep. We had to wake up at 5 a.m, and as soon as went to take a bath. If you're late, you had to wait in long queue, because just there were 4 bathrooms for approximately 50 persons,, hahaha..

After breakfast, at 7 a.m, we had to left our basecamp and went to field we had to survey. We practice different me

My Lucky Star...

 

 

Star, Oh my lucky star

Reachin' something like you are

Wouldn't you give me your celestial smile

For I promise someday I'll be your lyre...

 

Tell me where shall I start

With goals set in the pad of my heart

The journey that holds dear to me

Could you make it clearer for me to see...

 

Leave trace, oh dear, please

A hint of sparkling lace of breeze

And if the clouds must hide you

Draw a tiny light on the dew

I'll count it as your mystique secret code

That'll guide me

            ponandzi_teddy.png?width=362 It's been quite a long time had past since we parted ways but this wounded heart of mine is still in agony, deeply in pain crying out your name. Fairly enough that i survived every single day without you but at the end of each day, i pity my mind and heart for they haven't stopped working. I always ask God how long will I need to endure this pain. It is like I'm slowly dying inside and no one can hear me for help but God. My patience is about to leave me and start to lose hope but s

live-life-essential-tips-for-designers.jpgAs usual, I'm doing my best. In fact it's better every one does his/her best but some times we really have no fault.we get tired sometimes for sure and in my opinion it is quit normal. I'm trying to overcome again and I'm sure i can finally as usual but it really is tiring me this time. So much heavier than I be able to carry.One question: If all lives were the same and happy without any problem and discomfiture,what would happen? would we be able to enjoy it? I think "never".
