~ MOTHER'S DAY ~

Here I would like to share about "MOTHER'S DAY". Most of us who still have a mother, I am very sure always appreciate and love mothers. People basically called their mother such as Mom, Mommy, Moms, Mum, Ummi, Mak and many more. What name we called our mother not the point here but the important things are how we appreciate our mother in each moments of our life until now.

Mother's Day has long been celebrated as a day to honor one's mother. It is important for each of us to take the time to celebrate and thank our mothers for all that they do.

But did you know that originally, way back in 1870, Mother's Day was envisioned as a time for women to come together and unite for peace? When we discovered this, it became clear that the time was perfect to put together a piece highlighting Julia Ward Howe's original and inspirational Mother's Day proclamation, which declared, "We, the women of one country, will be too tender of those of another country to allow our sons to be trained to injure theirs."

We are all grateful to our mothers for the long hours they have spent teaching, loving, laughing and crying with us. Although this proclamation was written over 130 years ago, the human emotions and concerns of mothers have not changed when it comes to protecting their children.

Mother, you are a very special person to us. We want to let you know that you are very important in our life and we will always loving you even you are not with us anymore.

*** FRIENDSHIP FOREVER ***

Today, I love to share about the friendship from the articles that I have read before. This is because friendship is very important to me and I guess also important to you. Am I right?

First of all,
What does friendship mean? Friendship is usually surrounded by positive words like loyalty, forever, and comfort. These are generally the most common elements people think of in any exploration of friendship. Friendship can certainly contain these attributes, but upon closer analysis it also includes a more complex array of other elements as well.

A more sophisticated and refined definition of friendship would include not only a portrait of its enduring, permanent (meaning), but also of its likelihood and compassion as well. A more comprehensive picture of friendship is important if we are to properly estimate the value it holds for us as human beings.

Friendships we can be involved in are the most important kind of relationships. One of the reasons is that we can choose our own friends, unlike our families. But what kind of friends we choose, depends solely on our characters. Friendships bring out the best in us, and a man without friends could never find out the best in him. A true person would never choose to live without friends even if he had all the other commodities of life. So, we must be a good friend first if we want to have a best friend in our life.

#--- Confidence in Yourself ---#

Hello...This time I would like to comments about the confidence. Are you a confidence person? Am I? Are we? I think this question almost of the time in our mind especially when we want to present ourselves in front of other peoples such as when we want to make a presentation or confidence to make any decisions and many more. Possessing a healthy self-esteem and confidence in ourselves is key for a happy life. We make better and more informed decisions when we feel confident in ourselves.

Have you ever noticed someone walk into a room or restraunt and literally feel the confidence they exude? They walk with their head up, good posture and make eye contact with people they interact with. It is not about being the most-attractive, thin or rich person. Confidence comes from our perception of ourselves and what we have to offer others.

Here are some steps to gain more confidence in yourself:

* Positive self-talk.
* Keep a mental or written list of positive things in your life.
* Remove yourself from abusive people
* Never allow another person's negative comment or rejection to bring you down.
* Take care of your hair and body.
* Wear clothes that enhance your physique.
* Keep your word.
* Give everything you do 100%.
* Try to limit the words hate, never and always.
* Don't be defensive.
* Make your actions speak louder than words and watch what happens.
* Give yourself a break, we tend to be harder on ourselves than anyone else.
* Remember life will always have ups and downs, but how we handle them separates the victors from the victims.

That's all. Thanks for reads my comments.

^^^^ PREPARATION FOR EXAMINATION ^^^^

Hi Friends!!! Feel worried for the becoming exam? Here I want to give some tips that we can use to prepare ourselves especially for becoming final examination which I conclude it from the articles I read to make sure we success in our exam.

The most important thing any student can do to prepare for exam is to start early. The days of studying for an exam on the bus going to school are over. Even if you got A's this way, it's not going to work very often with college/university material. College/university courses required far more effort such as :

* Start preparing for the next test the day after you take the prior one. Daily preparation is crucial. At a minimum, review material once every week between exams.

* How much time is needed? The classic question. Some recommend 2-3 hours outside of class for every hour of class time. In some cases homework problems will require this much effort. For a straightforward lecture course try the following :

* Every day before class, preview the material for 15-20 minutes.
* Attend every lecture. Seems simple but it's the biggest misteak students make.
* Take good notes. Learn how.
* Spend another 20-30 minutes after class going over the notes.
* Use this time to get any confusing points cleared up in your head; much better now than later. This will make later exam prep. MUCH easier.
* Once a week, review the material to get a more complete overview of the information.

For all of the tips above, we need to implement it in our preparation for any examination. Please do not take it too easy. It is because we need to take it seriously to make sure we are not regret it later if we failed in that exam. I want to remind myself especially and all of my beloved friend, the examination is just around of the corner. Please do not waste your time with those things that are not important if you want to have a brighter and happiness life.


"Good Luck for your examination!" =)

*Prevent The Children From Choking*

This time, I want to share about choking that always happen to the children. Nowadays, most of the parents is working and their children will take care by others person. This situation make the children barre to choking them selves.

For small children, even the most seemingly harmless objects can pose a choking threat. So, as a person who is responsible to take care of them we must always beware to watch over them and do not let them alone.

The U.S. National Safety Council offers these suggestions to reduce youngsters' risk of choking:

* Never allow a baby or young child to play with a toy that has a cord or string attached.
* Don't feed your baby foods that could get stuck in the throat, such as bites of hot dogs, hard candy, uncooked vegetables, nuts, raisins, fruits or vegetables with pits, popcorn or grapes.
* Never allow your child to eat while lying down.
* Keep anything that can fit in your child's mouth out of reach, including coins, batteries, jewelry, nails or thumbtacks.

From the suggestion above I hope all of us will take a good responsibility on the children we care about. The children choking become as important as our life because the children always need our care on them. Do not be a selfish person but you must be a caring person to others.

# The Importance of Reading #

Hello Friends! Today, I would like to write about reading. On many of the other pages of advice, I have emphasized how important reading is as far as learning English is concerned.

However, there is a further, very important reason why students should try to develop their reading skills such as educational researchers have found that there is a strong correlation between reading and academic success. In other words, a student who is a good reader is more likely to do well in school and pass exams than a student who is a weak reader.

So, if you want your child to be successful at school encourage him or her to read. Reading non-fiction in English is probably the most important, but English fiction and any reading in the mother tongue. If done extensively, you will help your child develop the reading competence that is essential for academic achievement.

Let us have the new hobby in our daily life such as reading. There are so many information we can get when we read books or others. Try to be like book worms and you will not regret it at all.
