This article is pretty helpful. The article talks about 3 ways to get your marriage back on track. The advice is simple.

1. Take care of yourself first
2. Don't rehash the negative
3. Grab time-outs for sex

I think everyone is so busy these days that we don't take time and put in the effort. I can't wait to try these.

Donating Bodies

Everyone once in a while I forget why I am a part of Tzu Chi. But as soon as I do I am reminded why I am. Master Cheng Yen makes the hardest things simple.



It's always hard getting people to donate their bodies for medical research but it's even harder for asian people. The Chinese people believe that you don't damage the body before burial. It's a very old believe. If you ask around many people don't even know the exact reason why but they will tell you "if why my parents told me and that's what their parents told them". Well Master Cheng Yen has started a movement for more people to donate their bodies after death. Her reasoning: because society needs you. People have always been conservative in corpse donation but now Tzu Chi has made people more open-minded. In order for medical students to learn they have to practice and for them to practice they have to practice on something. Tzu Chi does a amazing job giving these donors a Buhddist ceremony and educating the students about each individuals and their family before had. The reason: we want compassionate doctors.

Text Messaging

So text messaging is a huge crazy now. There may even be a chance that more people text message than talk on the phone! My BFF's step mother thinks it's crazy.

But here is my point of view ... you can text message anywhere but you might not be able to call someone anywhere. Also when you are on the phone people near by can hear all about your business, not so when you text message. You can read your text messages whenever it is convenient but you might not be able to answer your phone when it rings. Also this might be important for men ... a text message is a easy response when talking to someone (your girlfriend might take a 30 minutes on the phone trying to tell you something but it might only take her 2 text messages to tell you what happened and your not on the phone going "uh huh") See? There are many positives to text messaging.

Safety first! Please becareful text messaging why driving and walking! (I don't say don't do it cause lets face it ... we do it!)

Twitter

So my husband has a Twitter account but does not actually Twitter. Lame. Why have a account if you are not going to par-take in it? I guess this means I am the avid blogger in the family.

Vintage Days

Vintages Days is always fun. Interesting things to look at and good food. What more can you ask for. However, today was extremely hot. 94 degrees however is a no bueno.

The result of Vintage Days is a Pepcid, 2 advils, and 2 sudafed. FML.

So yummy

Mmm ... Now I am normally not a big fan for Chinese desserts. But this is the yummiest egg custard tart I have ever eaten. The crust is nice and buttery yet just the right mixture of flakeyness. The egg custard is smooth and just the right amount of sweetness. Oh so good. Times like these makes me wish I could make Chinese food.

Tzu Chi Dental Mobile

I never stopped to admire the dental mobile until yesterday. It is a beautiful car. I wish I took more pictures of it. The mobile can be driven almost anywhere and as long as there is a dentist it can see patients. What a great thing.

Blogging

So there have been some concerns with me and this blog by my husband. Apparently he is concerned about my safety because of my stalking comment.



Now maybe my dear husband has watched too many episodes of One Tree Hill or maybe his arguement is valid. However, I would like to reasure him that my phone number (555-XXXX) and address (1234 Pennsylvina Avenue NW) will not be used. If at any time this blog becomes unsafe he will have the say in the shutdown.

XOXO

Welcome

Since many things catch my attention during the day I've decided to start a blog. Some say that I am amusing, funny, rude, angry, etc. But that is each persons own opinion. Stalk me if I interest you.
