3-25-08 Today's #1 Break Up Song

Someday
by Nina

Someday you're gonna realize
One day you'll see it through my eyes
But then I won't even be there
I'll be happy somewhere
Even if I can't

I know
You don't really see my worth
You think you're the last guy on earth
Well I've got news for you
I know i'm not that strong
But it won't take long
Won't take long

Chorus:
Coz someday, someone's gonna love me
The way, i wanted you to need me
Someday, someone's gonna take your place
One day i'll forget about you
You'll see, i won't even miss you
Someday, someday

Right now
I know you can tell
I'm down,and i'm not doin' well
But one day these tears
They will all run dry
I won't have to cry
Sweet goodbye

Chorus
Coz someday, someone's gonna love me
The way, I wanted you to need me
Someday, someone's gonna take your place
One day i'll forget about you
You'll see, i won't even miss you
Someday,
I know someone's gonne be there

Someday, someone's gonna love me
The way, I wanted you to need me
Someday, someone's gonna take your place
One day I'll forget about you
You'll see, I won't even miss you
Someday, someday

Some don'ts in life I agree with...

Don't date because you are desperate.

Don't marry because you are miserable.

Don't have kids because you think your
genes are superior.

Don't philander because you think you
are irresistible.
Don't associate with people you can't
trust.


Don't cheat. Don't lie. Don't pretend.

Don't dictate because you are smarter.

Don't demand because you are stronger.

Don't sleep around because you think
you are old enough & know better.

Don't hurt your kids because loving
them is harder.
Don't sell yourself, your family, or
your ideals.

Don't stagnate!

Don't regress.
Don't live in the past. Time can't
bring anything or anyone back.


Don't put your life on hold for
possibly Mr. Right.

Don't throw your life away on
absolutely Mr. Wrong because your
biological clock is ticking.


Learn a new skill.

Find a new friend.

Start a new career.

Sometimes, there is no race to be won,
only a price to be paid for some of life's more hasty decisions.

To terminate your loneliness, reach
out to the homeless.

To feed your nurturing instincts, care
for the needy.

To fulfill your parenting fantasies,
get a puppy.

Don't bring another life into this
world for all the wrong reasons.

To make yourself happy, pursue your
passions & be the best of what you
can be. Simplify your life. Take away
the clutter.
Get rid of destructive elements:
abusive friends, nasty habits, and
dangerous liaisons.


Don't abandon your responsibilities
but don't overdose on duty.

Don't live life recklessly without
thought and feeling for your family.
Be true to yourself. Don't commit when
you are not ready.


Don't keep others waiting needlessly.

Go on that trip. Don't postpone it.
Say those words. Don't let the moment
pass.


Do what you have to, even at society's
scorn.

Write poetry.

Love Deeply.

Walk barefoot.

Dance with wild abandon.

Cry at the movies.
Take care of yourself. Don't wait for
someone to take care of you.


You light up your life. You drive
yourself to your destination.

No one completes you - except YOU.

It isn't true that life does not get
easier with age.

It only gets more challenging.
Don't be afraid. Don't lose your
capacity to love.


Pursue your passions.

Live your dreams.

Don't lose faith in God.

Don't grow old. Just grow YOU!

When you give someone your time, you
are giving them a portion of your life that you'll never get back. Your time is your life. That is why
the greatest gift you can give to someone is your time.
Relationships take time and effort,
and the best way to spell love is T-I-M-E because the essence of love is not what we think or do or provide for others, but how much we give of ourselves.


God is good all the time!

"Life is too short to wake up in the morning with regrets, so love the people who treat you right, forget about the ones who don't, and believe that everything happens for a reason. If you get a chance, take it. If it changes your life, let it." -taken from facebook hehehe =)

Kobe Beef

We were watching the travel channel the other night and we came across the Great Steaks of America, and as lover of steaks we decided to stay on the channel and watch the show. They featured the following restaurants(some of them I missed):

Peter Luger - NY
Hilltop - Saugus, MA
Pats King of Steak - PA - cheesesteak sandwich
Cattlemans - El paso, TX - home of the BIG TEXAN 72oz steak
Buckhorn - Denver, CO - serves alligator and CO oysters(bulls balls)
Megu - Manhattan,NY - home of Kobe Beef

The restaurant and the steak that caught my eye was the Kobe Beef from Megu. Not only were the people raving about how soft and yummy and how it was the melt in your mouth kind of beef.They showed everyone how you can even eat the beef raw just like sushi and it was good and totally different, and how when you touch the beef with your finger it would leave an impression. That was how soft it was, it just shows how there was so much fat in it that it melts. 

What I can't get over until now was the process on how the beef became so soft. The showed the viewers that in Japan they have at least 6 people per cow massaging the cow from head to toe(or I should say hoof) and there was one guy making the cow drink beer. Yes, I am not crazy and you read it right. Beer. The owner of the restaurant said that they massage the cow so it doesn't become stressed, coz when the cow is stressed the beef won't be as soft, and yes they feed it beer the whole day coz he said it relaxes the cow. Talk about having it good while you're alive hehehe...

I told this story to my officemates and figured why shouldn't they have it good when sooner than they can think they are gonna be slaughtered and eaten hehehe.. I know it's morbid but just look at how good these cows get it when the cows here in the US are being tortured.

Why God created children

WHY GOD CREATED CHILDREN
(AND IN THE PROCESS GRANDCHILDREN) 


To those of us who have children in our lives,
whether they are our own,
grandchildren,
nieces,
nephews,
or students...
here is something to make you chuckle.

Whenever your children are out of control,
you can take comfort from the thought that
even God's omnipotence did not extend
to His own children.

After creating heaven and earth,
God created Adam and Eve..

And the first thing he said was
"DON'T!"
 

"Don't what ? "

Adam replied.
 

"Don't eat the forbidden fruit."
God said.

"Forbidden fruit ?
We have forbidden fruit ?
 
Hey Eve..we have forbidden fruit ! "
 


" No Way ! "
"Yes way ! "
"Do NOT eat the fruit ! "
said God.
 


"Why?"
 

"Because I am your Father and I said so!
"

God replied,
wondering why He hadn't stopped
creation after making the elephants.

A few minutes later,
God saw His children having an apple break
and He was ticked !

"Didn't I tell you not to eat the fruit ? "
God asked.
 

"Uh huh,"
Adam replied.

"Then why did you ? "
said the Father.

"I don't know,"
said Eve.

"She started it !
"
Adam said.

"Did not !
"

"Did too ! "

"DID NOT"

Having had it with the two of them,
God's punishment was that Adam and Eve
should have children of their own.

Thus the pattern was set and it has never changed.


BUT THERE IS REASSURANCE IN THE STORY !

If you have persistently and lovingly tried to give children wisdom and they haven't taken it,
don't be hard on yourself.


If God had trouble raising children,
what makes you think it would be
a piece of cake for you ?
 

THINGS TO THINK ABOUT !


1. You spend the first two years of their life
teaching them to walk and talk. Then you spend
the next sixteen telling them to sit down and shut up.

2. Grandchildren are God's reward
for not killing your own children.

3. Mothers of teens now know why
some animals eat their young.

4. Children seldom misquote you.

- In fact, they usually repeat word for word
what you shouldn't have said.

5. The main purpose of holding children's parties
is to remind yourself that there are children
more awful than your own.
 

6. We childproofed our homes,
but they are still getting in.
 


ADVICE FOR THE DAY:


Be nice to your kids.
They will choose your
nursing home one day.


AND FINALLY:
 

IF YOU HAVE A LOT OF TENSION
AND YOU GET A HEADACHE,
DO WHAT IT SAYS
ON THE ASPIRIN BOTTLE:


" TAKE TWO ASPIRIN"
AND "KEEP AWAY FROM CHILDREN"!!!!!
