Where to make your exit
Filed Under: Posted Stop and Think @ February 7, 2010 | No Comments
Do you know where to make your exit? Look for the Exit Signs! There have been emergencies that took place that we all have heard about. Earthquakes, fire, floods, storms, hurricanes. When these emergencies happen and we are inside a building or a big structure, what are we to do? Not to panic, is the first thing to remember. And then make sure you calmly exit the building or structure.
I understand that when an earthquake or fire happens, or any of the other calamities I’ve mentioned above, you get confused on where you go. You can’t use the elevator for safety reasons. Most buildings turn off the electricity to avoid anyone getting electrocuted or something. The Photoluminescent Exit Signs are the best signs that buildings and other structures can use. When the lights are off, you can easily see the signs and know right away where you can make your exit. That way, you know where the safety lies.
Make sure you know where the exits are. For building and other property administrators, use exit signs like Self Luminous Exit Signs or the Photoluminescent ones. There’s also the kind that has an emergency light attached to it already. Whichever your choice is, it is a must to have an exit sign in any given structure. Go to www.ExitSigns.net and check out the selection they have there.

Specialized job
Filed Under: Posted Stop and Think @ February 6, 2010 | No Comments
Jared is seeking employment. He lost his job middle of 2009 and he still hasn’t gotten any decent job offers. He’s losing hope but is fighting it for the sake of his younger sister who’s depending on him. He is living off the savings he’s accumulated over the years and the funds are dwindling down. It’s either he gets a job this month or they will really go broke.
It’s not easy to find a job especially if you are in the specialized fields. Like Jared’s been operating big machines in factories for the past twelve years. He can’t get the same job right away because there’s no vacancy in the city or somewhere nearby. He’s working on shifting to a different field and I am hoping that he’ll make it.
Don’t go well together

I guess cad drawing and coffee don’t go well together. Consider this scenario: you are concentrating so hard on the design you are doing. You have a cup of coffee on hand and would pick up the cup from time to time to sip on the hot brew. Without ever realizing it, you spilled some of your coffee on your design because you accidentally knocked over your coffee cup!
Of course, these things can happen more on people like me who becomes so engrossed with what we’re doing that everything else fades into nothingness. Even forgetting that there’s a cup of coffee nearby.
Good laugh
Filed Under: Posted Stop and Think @ February 6, 2010 | No Comments
I love having a good laugh from time to time. My friend and I were chatting last night when she asked me out of the blue what I see when I look in the mirror. I replied, “blackheads!” without batting an eyelash. Of course, I know she was talking about my innermost thoughts and emotions. But I was not in the mood for the drama of my life that time so I replied the first thing that came into my mind. I also told her that when I look in the mirror, I keep wishing I have a blackhead extractor with me.
I guess she got annoyed with me because she said goodbye a minute or so after that. Well, I know that we’ll chat again tonight. Who knows, I just might be in the mood to shed a tear or two this time around.
Willpower

How strong is your willpower?
I just realized that I have a pretty strong willpower. If I focus and tell myself I want something done, I can do it easily. Before the end of 2009, I told myself I will stop drinking any drinks with cola. I was addicted to cola drinks, especially during the latter part of 2009. But I told myself that it has to stop starting the 1st of January 2010. You know what? I managed to do that!
It’s now my 38th day without a drop of cola in my system. I am keeping my fingers crossed that this will be a permanent change in my lifestyle.
I am summoning my willpower whenever I spot a cola within a five mile radius. All I can say is that, it’s working!
My brother the health buff

Because they probably see my brother lifting weights and buffing his body, our younger male cousins are all telling my brother they also want to grow muscles. They also want to have the same abs as my brother. Good thing my brother knows how to tell them in a kind way that they are still too young and that they should let their bodies get older a bit.
I do think it’s better that kids start getting interested in exercising than be interested in something bad, like a vice. When my brother started going to the gym when he turned 17, I really thanked God because I knew he will stay away from vices if he wants his body to be really good. Hopefully, he will keep up with his daily workouts and continue living a health life.
Coffee intake
Filed Under: Posted Stop and Think @ February 6, 2010 | No Comments
I started drinking coffee when I was in probably around 10 or 11. It became a habit that every morning I would drink a cup of coffee. Then another one in the afternoon. These days, I no longer drink coffee that much. I am taking it slow because of my hyperacidity. Plus the fact that I love frappuccino and it’s making my quick trim fail its purpose. I love rich coffee like latte and I know it contains a lot of calories. Since I am trying to lose weight, cutting down on my coffee intake is a must.
Anyway, I can still drink at least every other day. That’s fine with me.
Suffering for years
Filed Under: Posted Stop and Think @ February 6, 2010 | No Comments
My sister’s friend is undergoing adult acne treatment. She finally saved enough to have her acne treated. She’s been suffering from it since her teenage years and only managed to minimize it a few years back. But it keeps coming back especially when she’s over stressed from work. Someone suggested that she has it treated and now that she has the funds, nothing and nobody can stop her from getting rid of it.
And I say, go and do it! She looks like a shy person because of her acne but when you really know her, she’s not. She is just embarrassed when people look at her because she thinks they are looking at her reddish face. After the treatment, hopefully, the acne will be removed and she can face everyone with her face held high.
