Green: Soothing to the Eyes

Wouldn't you agree?

I always thought green is such a soothing colour. It certainly relaxes the eyes, and we don't frown as much. Well, do you ever frown when you look at trees or lush greenery?

Of course, not.

I have even heard that by looking more at greens, you can reduce your eye power (for those inflicted with short-sightedness and are cursed to wear glasses for the rest of their lives! T.T) How true that is, I do not know. If it isn't, blame the person who told me that. (I can't remember who that was, at the moment =.=)

Anyway, although the intro does not sound like it, this is another fashion post! :D

And the intro is sorta related. Cos I'll be wearing green, see? Which is soothing to the eyes, geddit? Ahhhhhh. :P

Another outfit I wore to church the other day, that won me a few praises, I must say. Someone even told me this dress made me look slimmer and taller! *faints from overwhelming joy*

Anyway, enjoy the pics :)

This is a close-up. With my matching green contact lenses. :)

This dress has the sweetest V-neck collar that doesn't 
go too deep for me to feel too self-conscious. :P

Worn with a pair of beaded ear rings that I'd bought as a set with a necklace for RM 10.90 many years ago. I don't wear the necklace--too extravagant to go with anything. But I thought the ear rings are sweet with this dress :)

Ta-daaa!
The full dress that goes down to my mid-thigh.
It also has an adjustable tie-wrap that goes at the back to give more shape :)
From F.O.S. in Sunway Pyramid.
It cost me about RM50 which, at the time, I thought was so expensive. @.@

My most favourite feature on this dress?
The pockets! :D
Don't they make this dress that much cooler? :P

(Excuse my flip-flops. I had actually worn this dress to church with white wedges. But while waiting for my brother to finally agree to take this photo for me, I had taken them off and slipped my comfort shoes on. Aheh. Sorry about that. Imagine white wedges on for the complete look, kay? :P)

How do you like the dress? :)

Now, weren't those photos just soothing to the eyes in more ways than one? xD

by Lisa Kwan *** The crying. Non-stop crying. Where is she? Brendwyn realizes she’s in an empty room. It isn’t any room she is familiar with though; there are no walls, no windows, just nothing. But she hears the crying. Her heart is pounding, and cold sweat forms on her forehead, in her palms. Suddenly, she sees her. She’s there, in a corner of the room, if there were a corner. A small bundle, completely wrapped in swaddling cloth, dark, unmoving. The crying. Brendwyn moves forward, slides to her knees beside her, absolutely terrified to pick her up. She leans in, but hesitates. She wonders why. Guilt creeps in. The crying. She lifts her up, and the crying intensifies. What’s wrong? She hastily unwraps the cloth from her covered face. She pulls the last of the folds of cloth free to reveal her baby...with her eyes gouged out. She screams as she drops the bundle, and watches in paralyzed horror as long slimy dark tentacles snake out where the baby’s...

"To My Parents: I'm Not Your Damn Slave."

Image
I came across this video that not only shocked me, but, strangely, moved me (in a weird kind of way). A fifteen-year-old girl, Hannah, posted on her Facebook wall about how crappy and how unfair her life is, because she has to do school and  chores at home. She shared this with the entire world on Facebook but blocked her parents from seeing it. Unfortunately for her, her dad, Tommy Jordan, runs an IT company for a living, and, well, let's just say her plan failed. @.@ I would like to transcribe (from the video) what Jordan read from his daughter's Facebook wall: "To my parents, I'm not your damn slave. It's not my responsibility to clean up your shit. We have a cleaning lady for a reason--her name is Linda, not Hannah. If you want coffee, get off your ass and make it yourself. If you want a garden, shovel the fertiliser yourself. Don't sit back on your ass and watch me do it. If you walk into the house and get mud all over the floor that I just cle...

This Old Man

I grew up with nursery rhymes. I don't remember actually learning them in kindergarten, but give me one line, and I'll be able to tell you the rest. Well, most of it anyway. I guess Tadika Kiddyhouse did a good job in teaching kids their nursery rhymes. (No, no, no understanding needed. Just rote memorization! Good job!) :D I can remember every word to "Hey Diddle Diddle". If you ask me nicely I can sing it for you :) Hey Diddle diddle The cat and the fiddle The cow jumped over the moon The little dog laughed to see such sport And the dish ran away with the spoon. One question though: Have you ever wondered what these children's nursery rhymes mean? We've always accepted the unacceptable in nursery rhymes. How a cat learned to play a fiddle, how a cow can jump over the moon, how a dog can laugh, and how dishes can elope with spoons. But one nursery rhyme that's kinda got me stumped is "This Old Man." This old man, he played one...
