Communication

I need to learn communicating skills especially when speaking with my family. It seems like everything that comes out of my golden mouth is labled as "atom bomb" by my family's special radar. I used to think that they are the one that is paranoid and not open for any communications but perhaps I am wrong.

I am not sure is it the tone of my voice or the way I construct my sentence or maybe I didn't choose a righ time to talk or...I just lack the skillful way of trying to get my words registered to their heads and not getting the response that I am actually trying to start a war. Therefore, from today onwards, I will try to change myself to adopt a good communication skills that before I knew it I will be the master of communication! A total professional!

Yeah, I guess I am still not doing things right and immature in many ways not to mention that I am somehow selfish (awww...don't be too hard on yourself girl). Anyway, anyhow, I will have to try to improve to a better being or I will loose not only my entire family but also someone who is quite important in my life. I am not speaking about death but about the disruption of relationships between human beings.

For teens that want to improve in your communication skills with your family especially with your parents, you can check this site :

Let's improve the way we communicate! And remember, communication does not only involve speaking but also listening!

Singapore

Continuation from yesterday’s post.  I finally ate the ice cream which is sandwiched between two wafers that I saw before and it was yummy because there’s like a huge block of ice cream and the wafer was thin. I chose peppermint chocolate and raspberry swirl. It was really fun to eat that on the helical bridge that totally looks like a DNA strand. I really love this region and it was also the same place where the fun run was held. So I got to go across the helical bridge twice. I am also very happy to finally seen the Merlion and since it was early in the morning during the fun run, the place was rather quiet and there were not many crowds. I wanted to properly run the fun run but I end up walking most of the time just enjoying the scene and talking to people since it was supposed to be a networking event. Delegates from 142 countries were there but I only manage to make friends from Singapore, Hong Kong, Taiwan, India, Indonesia, Germany and New Zealand. It was quite hard to make ...

Pieces of My Shatterd Heart

I miss you, when you laugh, the twinkle in your eye, the shape of your silhouette against the moonlight, the way you concentrate when you drive, and tease me intentionally to make me smile I really miss you~~~~~ I like the time when we went out and it was raining you treated me like an ice cream afraid of me melting shunning me away from the water droplets falling and when I look up to see you I caught you smiling... Drowning in a pool of misery wondering how to change history to diminish my growing worry to seal you in my deepest memory Not having you means not having anything cause you are the one whom i can share everything its you i seek when the rays of dawn comes shinning don't you know that my heart is now shattering? When night comes the missing is unbearable cause its was always the time you are more available yet now even when the curtains of dusk falls I'm l...

Her Dream, His Dream

Once upon-a-time... ...and they lived happily ever after The End I bet most of the fairy tales we hear during our childhood years sounded very similar if not exactly as the statement above. I have always wanted my life to be similar to those story where there's magic, love, eternal happiness and most important of all my very own prince! Please note that prince here refers to life-partner and it does not equal to the average "boyfriend". It's not like I'm going to be seen with a wedding ring and a veil over my head very soon but I do admit, I would really love to get married with my prince as fast as possible so that I can reach the part of the story where " they live happily ever after". However, I learn that in reality, nothing can be as flawless as in the tales which have been the basic foundation of my life. If life has no flaws, earth would have been known as heaven. Even so, life is still beautiful and I learn that for a marriage to ...
