COULD you tell me which of the following sentences are correct?

1. I saw him today.

2. I have seen him today.

3. I didn’t do any work today.

4. I haven’t done any work today.

5. We went to Singapore twice this week.

6. We have been to Singapore twice this week.

7. I didn’t have a holiday this year.

8. I haven’t had a holiday this year.

If all the sentences are grammatical, could you tell me what are the differences in meaning? –

1 & 2 – You can use both sentences, but in different contexts. Sentence 1) “I saw him today.” is more common. You can say that if you met a friend by chance or by prior arrangement earlier in the day, or you can say that in reply to a question like: “Have you seen Amin lately?” and you reply: “Yes, I saw him today, in the canteen.

Sentence 2) “I have seen him today.” is used only in certain contexts. For example, if a friend knows that you are in the habit of visiting your father who is in hospital, every day, he may ask you: “Have you seen your dad today?” and your answer can be:“Yes, I have seen him today. He seems much better than he was yesterday.” “I have seen him today.” is a confirmation that you have done what you habitually do every day.

3 & 4 – Since “today” is not over yet, you can’t use the simple past tense and say: “ I didn’t do any work today.”(sentence 3) because you might do some work later in the day. But you can say: “I haven’t done any work today.” (sentence 4) because it means that up to now (e.g. 2pm today) you haven’t done any work, but you may do some later.

5 & 6 – These two are similar to 3 & 4. “This week” is not over yet, and you may go to Singapore a third time, so “We have been to Singapore twice this week.” (sentence 6) is the correct sentence to use. It states the situation more accurately, i.e. up to now this week, we have been to Singapore twice. We may go again, who knows?

7 & 8 These two are similar to 3 & 4 as well as 5 & 6. You can’t say: “I didn’t have a holiday this year.” (sentence 7) because this year is not over yet. You can say “I didn’t have a holiday last year.” because last year is over and done with. So when talking about not having a holiday this year, you have to say “I haven’t had a holiday this year.” (sentence 8) Who knows, later in the year, you might have one.

Having said all that, I think it can still be argued that – if you are saying sentence 3 at 11.59pm today, or sentence 5 very late on Saturday this week, or sentence 7 very late on Dec 31 this year – you may be right!

Is there such a thing being scared of love??

Thu, 27 Aug 2009 02:16:10 GMT

There are many other reasons why people don't feel comfortable in loving relationships besides fear of getting hurt, and so do am i. Actually, that may be one of the lesser reasons since most people are willing to take that risk in order to achieve ultimate happiness but sometimes it won't happened, because we will go for it regardless of their partner's feeling.

I scared to love somebody and being love as well because I do really concern about my partner and everything about him but yet I trying harder to love him. I love him so much that is why I keep trying even though I scared that so much.If i done something that hurt you so much, Im sorry and I know sorry means nothing once I hurt you, I did it without any intention. I felt so down and the guilt wrapped myself, when I hurt your feeling even just a little of your feeling, I mind about it because of you.Just because of you.
Perhaps our thoughts never be the same way.? What do you think about that?I don't think so, just bear in your mind - "I Love You regardless of anything."
Forgive me.

Your tiny girl,

WHY?? WHY EVERYTIME I SHOULD TO FEEL SO..? WHAT IS MY PROBLEM? COULD ANYONE TELL ME.. I WANNA HIDE MYSELF AND CRY AS LOUD AS I CAN..

A message from a friend

Wed, 26 Aug 2009 12:36:38 GMT

This message was typed by one of my friend. He ask me to do a favor for him.

Both of my left and right hemisphere of my brain very stressed.Left stress about my mum,who always remind me my sickness, by using the phrase of "病人“ or even worse, handicap person.The right side stress about girl,single life has made me out of mood,everyday trying to win girl's heart but at last im failed to get the girl i loved. (sigh) I afraid im no longer can live in this squeezing, pressurize world. I think of it for few days, i really don't know whom i can share with, neither my friend nor my family.but for u. I hope u can live happily for the rest of ur life, if i really died, for this illness.It's okay for me, because i enjoyed my life before, i doing my favourite things, such as driving, listen music , knowing a wonderful friend like u, just that, i failed to be with my dream girl, lastly i need u to pass this message that i love my family and all my friend and u, muackss to everyone.. 26/08/2009 7.43pm.

The pleasing disease

Wed, 26 Aug 2009 12:13:09 GMT

People-pleasing can be defeating habit in a person's life simply because people-pleasers don't get what they want out of life.It's time to find out that its ok to be selfish sometimes.

I have a little trouble saying "NO" once in a while.However putting the needs of others above my own can go from being a noble deed to a true problem.Peer pressure is a common reson that i feel the need to please others.The first step to regaining control of your life is to learn how to say "NO" to other and stand up for myself.

Hmm...do you know what is PEOPLE-PLEASING?? blur?? okay here you go..
It involves thinking of other people's need before your own, worrying about what other people want, think, or need, and spending a lot of time doing things for others. People pleasers rarely do things for themselves - and when they do, they are wracked with guilt.

I always,

I try to be who someone wants me to be.
It is hard for me to know what i want.
I avoid speaking in mind.
I find it easier to go along with what someone wants or with their opinion.
It is hard for me to express my feelings when they are different from someone I'm close to.
It is difficult for me to say "No" and i feel terrible when i do.
I do not let myself get angry - with friends.
I try to be nice rather than expressing how i really feel.
I want everyone to get along, regardless of what i have to do to make it happen.

"Constantly trying to please other people is draining, and many people-pleasers feel anxious, worried, unhappy and tired a lot of the time .They may not understand why no one does anything for them when they do so much for others-but they often won't ask for what they need" YES, I do..
And the effects were,

low self-esteem and depression
loss of personal identity
being taken advantage
immobilised by irrational beliefs
extreme guilt
loss of self-appreciation
inability o accept kindness from others
lack of trust in others
insecurity in interracting with others
inability to make a decision without any tense

I have one question.. stil puzzeling in my mind.. It is OKAY to be selfish?
oh please get out of my life..~

Menstrual pain,stomach ache for wholeday..damn pity..[dun beggin me for mercy,what would u release me~ bla bla..]
笨蛋妹 bought my beloved pet..shit you girl!!!
My phone severely scratched..my heart got stitched..
Black-out..this really killing..and i almost die..luckily i didn't..
Lost all my friends contact number..i don't really mind about this because im sure that they will keep in touch with me.
My lips dried, chapped and cracked, redish..hermmm, i believe that my lips quite sexy~

Tips for cracked lips
Lip balm or Petroleum jelly[VASELINE] can often provide temporary relief. Medical grade lanolin USP accelerates repair of lips and is used in some lip repair products. Certain enzymes present in saliva (normally used for digestion) irritate the lips, and the evaporation of the water in saliva saps moisture from them.For these reasons, licking one's lips is something that should be avoided.
Remember: so, during your lips are dried please do not kiss with your partner because it will make it more worst. HAHAHA... but this is the truth ^^

Another remedies are:

Honey has antibacterial properties which can help heal and soothe chapped lips. Nasal sebum may also be used as a remedy. Acidic drinks such as orange juice should be avoided because of their acid which irritates chapped lips. Coconut oil or butter is also an effective remedy that has been used in ancient India for many centuries
