Arguments - Good or Bad?

The definitions of an argument in the dictionary are:

1. an oral disagreement; verbal opposition; contention; altercation.

2. a discussion involving differing points of view; debate.

3. a process of reasoning; series of reasons.

4. a statement, reason, or fact for or against a point.

5. an address or composition intended to convince or persuade; persuasive discourse.

When you are in a relationship, an argument is always the definition of number 1 which will lead to a violent conversation and this will hurt both parties eventually.But in my point of view, there are advantages and disadvantages in arguments.

Advantages: Gain more knowledge
Get to know what is in the other's head
Learn from each other
See more clearly other's different point of view

Disadvantages: Some people get offended if their view is challenged
They can quickly escalate into something fierce if misunderstood
Some people are ignorant and that can upset the partner or others.

Well, it happened to me today on the this special Christmas Day 2011. Don't let this happen to you and talk nicely. It has definitely spoilt my day...

Turkish Islamic Art of Marbling

This Turkish Art of Marbling is the art of creating colorful patterns by sprinkling and brushing color pigments on a pan of oily water and then transferring this pattern to a piece of paper.
First the artist made the background and then he started drawing.
After finished drawing the leaf and the stem, he continued to the flower.
It was so beautiful and so delicate.

The drawing on the water was now done.
Next, he put a piece of paper very slowly and carefully onto the water.
Then, he skillfully pat on the paper so that the flower pattern would be transferred onto it.
Slowly, he took the paper up.
Ta - Da! Impressive Turkish Art!

Sasa Ladies' Day

SASA Fashion on The Turf Day

On the 27th November 2011, me and a few other fellow bloggers attended the Ladies' Day organised by Sasa. It was a great outing for us ladies!
We got introduced to the new range of BB creams with SPF 50. Cool.
Methode SWISS Miracle Serum by Sasa
Various Caudalie's products.
Sasa also had a Beauty Package which a person paid RM50 and got a makeover, a professional photoshoot, an express manicure session and also a RM30 cash voucher. That was worth to pay RM50.
Thanks to Sasa for giving me a complimentary makeover.
There was also a fashion show and models wearing nice head ornaments and beautiful clothes.

The lucky 5 winners
To end this eventful day, we all bought a ticket betting on the horse with the RM10 voucher sponsored by Sasa.
Guess what!! Jess's horse ran second and she won herself RM15 but the horse I bet on was first but I won only RM10. Why? I still can't work it out... Strange (scratching my head )

Long Distance Relationship

I believe many people nowadays are in a long distance relationship ( LDR ) and all these are the direct contribution of the invention of aeroplane and internet. Before the popularity of internet dating, lovers used to communicate a lot using telephone and they would talk for ages or corresponded via mails. Now, with the advent of the internet, LDR has exploded in popularity because it is now easier to be sustained. But what are the disadvantages and advantages to be in a LDR?
Trust is very important in maintaining a relationship but how many couples succeeded in establishing it? Mine did not survive and it lasted for 6 years before everything fell apart because trust was just not there and it just happened. Compromising on a commitment is important and holding on to the promises matters a lot too. I take my relationship seriously and I hoped my 'man' appreciate me.
On the other hand, distance is not the end of the end of the world in a relationship. Both parties have to work hard to make LDR work. It's hard enough to keep a relatively close distance relationship work , never mind a long one.It is an understandably difficult commitment to honor if you and your sweetheart decide to keep the relationship going while you are apart. Difficult but not impossible. My failure doesn't mean I won't try again but it means that I just have to work harder.
