Find something to please us by ourselves.
I never think about to do such an incredible thing before today, but it really happened to me. My reason is: I just want to find something which can make my life different from usual. The story was stared at a rat came into my house. That was the first time I saw a rat in my house which make me wanted to find a way to catch the rat as soon as possible. Even there are many ways to catch the rat but I came up with a different idea at that moment. I remembered that my neighbor has two lovely cats, so I decide to borrow a cat to stay with me for a day in order to make the rat be caught by the cat. I explained my trouble and told my neighbor that I wanted to borrow one of his cats. My neighbor agreed to give me one cat at once. Then I chosen a black cat and took the cat with me to my house with a great pleasure. I did some delicious food for the cats and expected it wouldn’t make feel disappointed. At the very beginning, the cat walked around in my room, I though it was searching the smell the rat but no longer, the cat fall asleep and didn’t willing to get up until the next morning. I realized that the cat in nowadays is no longer like the cat at before, they even forget their instinct tasks. Without any choice I took the cat to my neighbor and thanked him. Afterward, I really think that’s an interesting decision which I have ever made, I just want to have something different happened to my life. That’s my story! There are many people too busy to make themselves to enjoy the happiness from their own life, it very easy to get fun from our own life if we want. So to find some happiness for your life couldn’t be neglected.

“I have right to know about it.” ?
Few days ago, my good friend (hereafter I call her A) complained with me on QQ that, A received a call from a friend’s girlfriend (I call her B), because B found a bill to A in his purse. B asked A something about it. A told B he borrowed money from A and just returned it to her. B then asked A what’s the use of the money. A told B she knew nothing about it. B accused A of lending money to him without knowing the use. My friend said she didn’t think she needed to ask such questions, since she knew him for a long time and trusted him. B continued to ask more about it. A said: “ Why you ask me such question? ” B said,“I think I have right to know about it.” My friend still said with a peaceful tone “ I don’t think you have right to know about it. If he agrees me to tell you, I will tell you. If not, I won’t tell you. Because he is my friend, while I don't know you at all. I should respect him first.” The words enraged her and she lost her temper and shouted at my friend on the phone.
“I have right to know about it.” I’m sure that this saying is familiar to us. It’s not my first time to hear a thing or a girl/boy like this. Some girls/boys, maybe many of them, think they have right to know everything about her boyfriend/girlfriend.
In my personal opinion, everyone is independent, belonging to nobody except himself. The parents gave us our life, but cannot go through our life instead of us. The friends can touch our hearts and feeling but cannot taste the happiness and bitterness for us. For me, I should be responsible for myself and my family; and for the others, I would respect them, including his/her feeling, choice and life. I’m not agree with those person who thinks he/she has right to know everything about other people, to interfere other’s choices and to invade others’ personal spaces.

This weekend I went to see the cinema "Salt". The reason I chose this movie because of just one reason that I love Angelina Jolie, the main actress. She is very actractive and she has a lot of talent in acting. And this movie didn't make me disappointed. It was an excited thriller movie and the plot of the movie was so good. Angelina was so great; she made the audience convince that she was really Evelyn Salt and she drove the whole story through in an incredible ending. No such a scene that made me bored. It was worth for my money to buy a ticket. I seldom go to see the movies so I think ticket's price was too expensive. Now It was 140 bath; it is very very expensive that was more expensive than before about 80-120 bath.
Gray hair
People are afraid to pull gray hairs because it’s believed that the gray hairs will spread around your head. Truly, one root of hairs will have only one hair, it can’t be rise even if you will cut or pull because the gray hair may come from other factors. Before getting gray hair, you should protect it from causes such as having healthy foods especially sesame. If you get more gray hairs, you may dye it by black color or use other ways that fit with your style.

Unity seems to be the hardest word
Currently, it is very sad for us to live in the world full of competition, conflict and fight. Those don't even bring us to anything good; moreover they lead us to disaster altogether. Especially in Thailand, I don't still see any way which can be a solution of problem, the political chaos caused by a few parties. Even though public calls for unity from every party concerned, there is no obvious response given. They may, I believe, need unity but their benefit must always come first so if unity for country obstructs their benefit, they're ready to kick what public asks for out of their way immediately. They only say what they want and simultaneously attack other parties who disagree with them. Everything looks so far away from 'being the state of unity'. Although I hope Thailand's problem will be solved well soon, I believe we have to suffer from this for long time. Actually, unity seems to be the hardest word.
Life is a test.
My trouble with life, work and health become a serious problem for me last week. When my computer was out of order in last Sunday that make me can not worked and do anything with my homework,then my car was broke while I was on the way to studied in Monday.

My 8.50 train
05/08/10, this morning, I'm traveling to Lumpang Province. My 8.50 train from Hua Lumpong Station was late so I had to wait one more hour before my 8.50 train arrived at Bang Sue Station.
I always think that a train to northward is long but my 8.50 train is short. It is a sprinter type and has 3 cars.
I am sitting on the left side. So, along the way I can enjoy a view from this side only. Around 10.40, after the train left from Ayutthaya Station. I saw a farmer which was farming. Then I think about a rain in Bangkok.
A rain there should fall over a paddy field because it is a farming season now, and a farmer should have rain to help him farm.
Anyway this train was late one hour from Bangkok. Now the train is running so fast. Oh! I cannot write anymore. So, please continue next weekkkkkkk. *___* *___*

Why does chili taste so hot?
Are you a fan of spicy food? If you have a low threshold for chili burn, your eyes probably water after a couple of bites of the papaya salad. To lessen the burning sensation, you automatically reach for a big glass of cold water. But does it work? What makes chili taste so spicy and is there a better way to stop the burn? We will explore the chemistry behind the spiciness that may better equip you for you next spicy Northeastern Thai meals.
The burning sensation in chill pepper is from a chemical known as “capsaicin”. Although capsaicin is present throughout the skin of the chili pepper, it is concentrated in the white layer that holds the chili pepper seeds. Capsaicin was the plant’s way to deter mammals from consuming chili pepper, as their gastric juice destroy the chili seeds and prevent the repopulation of the chili plants. According to the 2007 Guinness Book of World Record, the hottest chili pepper is the Naga jolokia pepper, which is grown more in India then any other countries. As a rough estimate, the Naga jolokia is 20-times spicier than the Thai chili pepper, which already brings most people to tears after just one bite.
There are several way to fight the chili burn. Cold water, however, is not the most effective way due to the spreading of capsaicin to other areas in your mouth. You might be surprised to learn that diary products, such as milk and ice cream, are some of the best remedies against the chili burns because products, such as milk can coat the receptors on your tongue, shielding them from more capsaicin exposure. So now that you have your chemistry, use it wisely and save yourself from the agony caused by a little chemical called capsaicin.

Oh my God!!!.I have fever 39 C and no voice. One reason of this sick is weather : rainy, sunny and cloudy in same day. Why the weather is abnormal more and more ?
I want to see a doctor at the Yanhee hospital after symtom of sickness for three days. Finally, I couldn't to rise up and ate anything. No doubt I was influenza H1N1(I thought in my mind). When I arrived hospital. I sat in front of a doctor's room for ten minutes before went to saw him. He told me "Could you speaking?". I took someone for an interpreter talking with the doctor because I was a sore throat. He checked my throat and sent me to specialist in EENT department(eyes, ears, nose and throat).I breathe relievedly because of it means I didn't an influenza H1N1.I want to tenth floors , the doctor checked my thoroat again.And she said " you are an inflamed larynx"("larynx" is vocabulary of medical have mean "vocal cords"). Then she told " you should stop talking, doesn't loudly voice and I will injected at your hip". Oh no!!I'm only think , I feel pained. At that time, I felt little pain. After that,I felt better, I have a little voice but I felt worse when I spent money(lose all my money ).

Confucius
Confucius (Chinese name is Kong zi) was a Chinese thinker and social philosopher. His philosophy emphasized personal and governmental morality, correctness of social relationships, justice and sincerity. These values gained prominence in China over other doctrines, such as Legalism or Taoism during the Han Dynasty (206 BCE – 220 CE). Confucius' thoughts have been developed into a system of philosophy known as Confucianism. Yesterday a seminar was hold in my school on the topic of “Kong zi” with 80 Chinese teachers’ attendance. To be the lecture I prepared the movie of Kongzi and lots of materials for the Chinese teachers with the purpose of making the Thai students get to know Confucius’s thought and philosophy, such as showing gratitude to parents, showing respect to the elder people and everyone in the society and etc. actually, not only the students can study from Confucius but also all of us. If anyone want to get to know more about Confucius, the following website is available. http://www.confucius.org/maine.htm

Friends Forever?

Your best friend is possibly the most important person in your life. What would you do without that someone you can tell ALL to?... who always understands?... who can be fun or serious,laugh with you ,depending on what you need?,and wipe the state clean?
But sometimes friendship's road is a little bumpy. Or it's a complete and total dead end. What will you do when the relationship between you and your best buddy changes?
#1: Turn your face away form him/her and drifting apart
#2: Fights
#3: End of the Road
In my opinion," Friends" have meaning in ourselves.
F-orgets applesauce you've done.
R-emember even your minor win.
I-rrespective of whine.
E-ndures your stupid.
N-ever say hit the nail on the head.
D-reams with you and walk together both happiness and sufferings.
At this times,How many have you get true friend in your whole life?

How to be a good Friend?

Studies show that having a well-balanced social life helps promote a healthy attitude toward life. This doesn't mean you have to be the life of every party, but it does mean developing strong bonds that can help you through the ups and downs of the world. In order to have great friends, though, you also need to be one. Not sure if you are? Here are some tips.
1. Be there for them when they need you, not when you need something from them. Good friends don't call up people only to request a favor. While knowing people that can help you out is important, it's equally important not to abuse the relationship. Focus on what your friend is going through at the moment. Are they happy? A little lonely? Maybe they need to talk about their kid going away to college or the fact that they are worried about their in-laws. Whatever the situation, put yourself second and listen to what's being said directly and implied in their conversations.
2. Don't wait for friends to call you. Make an effort to keep in touch with people. Everyone is busy, but if you want to maintain good friendships you should be proactive about communications. It doesn't mean you have to sit on the phone for two hours a day, but it does mean you send an email, a card, or give them a quick call to let them know you're thinking about them.
3. Respond to them in a timely manner. There's nothing more frustrating than sending a friend an email or note, and having them ignore it because they are "too busy." Everyone is busy. If someone is your friend, you make the effort to be kind to them. Responding to their questions and requests is one way you can do that.
4. Don't be part of the gossip train. Bad mouthing people you call friends is one of the worst things you can do. Don't be catty or talk about them behind their backs. Don't hang out with someone just so you can go back to someone else and talk about your friend. Decide if you are someone's friend, or not, and act accordingly.
5. Be happy for them. It may sound ridiculous, but some folks just can't be happy at their friend's successes. Don't be someone that's only in for complaining about life. When your friend hits it big - celebrate with them. When they're interviewing for a new job - pull for them. When they want to find love - be gracious and supportive when they find it. There is nothing better in the world than having people that support and care about you. Go out of your way to show your support for your friend.
I like this column. My opinion is we will think about our friends when we are suffering from someone or something. But other times we didn't give them precedence.
