| | Surviving, Living, Dying | | 2008-07-01 03:24:00 | | Since there’s a lot of places I have lived my entire life, I naturally have a lot of friends. Friends that over the years have remained my buddies, my brother, my sister. I am so lucky to have found them, and I thank them all.I am not trying to be optimistic here about friendship. In fact, I am a bit depressed writing this article. I am in this mood because earlier I was thinking of my friends who I wanted to talk to and realized.... that four of my best friends are now dead.My first best buddy was my cousin Buboy. I think I was eight then when we found out he had diabetes. The doctors had to cut his leg off. A year after that, my elder sister told me he was dead. They probably thought I was just a kid who wouldn’t mind losing a playmate. They never knew. We were like brothers. When the news hit me, I went out of the house and walked. I just walked.When I got tired, I settled in front of a small Chinese sari-sari store and wept.I was already settled in Los Angeles when my best budd... | | By: Literary Exex | | |

| | | Surviving job-market bumps | | 2008-01-11 23:40:00 | | Whether you're in a weak industry or not, here are tips to stay aheadBy Andrea Coombes, MarketWatchSAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) -- Economists say the job-market is likely to slow in the year ahead. Should you be worried? Not really, said Cincinnati-based career consultant and author Andrea Kay, who operates AndreaKay.com. The first thing workers should remember, Kay said, is that statistics don't necessarily reflect their own situation. "Don't jump [to another job] just because statistics are saying nobody is hiring." At the same time, workers always should be prepared for things to change, even if their current position and job-market outlook appear rosy. "Nothing lasts forever," Kay said. "It'll change because of whatever's going on in the market, because of economic factors, because of some event in the world, because of something you cannot predict." Given that uncertainty, now is the time to think about preparing for your next job. The first step "is to know why you matter," Kay said. "If something were to change in your industry or your company, you need to know why you have value." That means keeping notes detailing the moments when you make a concrete difference to your company. Ask yourself, "What new idea did I come up with, what relationship did I save, what process or procedure did I come up with, what thing did I develop that made the company increase customers or increase Internet traffic?" Kay said. Track those moments. "These are things that you can take with you, and that you can transfer to another industry that might be aligned with the one you're in," she said. "A lot of people hardly ever think about this stuff, they're too busy doing their jobs. My advice is you better be tracking this stuff," she said. "It sounds like a lot of work and it is, but there's a lot at risk" in not doing it, Kay said. In the event of a job loss, "... | | By: How to be Rich, Happy and Free from Scams | | |
| | Surviving In A World of Christmas | | 2007-11-26 18:00:00 | | It's the holiday season. I'm not stressing about the season that much. I think that I recognize that I won't ever be into the holiday like others. I appreciate the vibe, but I don't buy into the season on a whole.When it comes to the holidays, the "reason for the season" is a non-issue. I do not follow, nor believe, in any religion. I don't even necessarily buy into goodwill and cheer stuff. But since I have no desire to divorce myself from my family, I make the rituals of Christmas the holiday for me. But it's only certain rituals. It's not the tree, the gifts, or a priest on the pulpit. It's the "everything" cut-out cookies, pirogies, bad renditions of certain carols during Midnight Mass, Jill Sobule's "Merry Christmas From The Family," and "A Christmas Story."Underneath, I think the holiday died for me when we found out my grandma had pancreatic cancer in November 2004. I stopped caring at that point. I lost a key part of the ritual I loved. A quiet Christmas mo... | | By: In Java, Literally... | | |
| | Tips in Surviving Train Travel in Japan | | 2007-11-16 08:46:00 | | I was wondering, why is it that most of my posts relating to Japan are with trains? Am I beginning to be a densha otaku (train maniac)? Now way! Not with trains.Here are the most sound and best practices to observe with train travel in Japan. The trains I pertain are the JR East trains.1. Avoid rush hour.2. Avoid rush hours please.3. Avoid and please, avoid rush hours.4. When the train approaches, pay attention which coach has the fewest people possible.5. Avoid a coach with too many middle-aged men. Why? Because they are most likely the ones who have the force to push people when people try to squeeze themselves inside the train despite they knew that it is already jam packed.6. When getting inside, and if your destination is too far, go at the middle of the coach.7. Wear durable shoes, and clothes especially buttons because they are the most likely to tear, wear and rip-off in the middle of the commotion.8. When getting inside, have a keen observation who do you think will be the nex... | | By: Rey Ian\\\\\\\'s Personal Blog | | |

| | Surviving traffic police in India | | 2007-07-15 14:18:00 | | Statutory warning: This author urges you to obey traffic rules, co operate with traffic police and follow safe driving practices. This post only gives some basic tips on reducing inconveniences you might face with law enforcers and by no means encourages you to break rules.If you’re driving across on Indian roads, you would have probably noticed traffic police pulling over people (99% of them two wheeler drivers, traffic cop dashes in front of the speeding vehicle to make them stop and pull over). They do not check each and every vehicle on road, but pull over few vehicles randomly.How do they work and what are the steps I can take to avoid them?1. They try to identify the changes in facial expression of riders. Ideally, if you have some fault (say not having a Driving License) your face will show a sense of disturbance/insecurity when you see a cop suddenly (Oh! I didn’t bring my DL what shall I do if the cop asks for it). Traffic police are trained to note this change in facial e... | | By: eNidhi - A professional amateur | | |
| | Surviving as a Woman in Science meeting - register now! | | 2007-05-09 22:44:20 | | EuroSciCon will be holding the following meeting: “Surviving as a Woman in Science” on Friday 2 November 2007 at The BioPark, Broadwater Road, Welwyn Garden City, Hertfordshire
'With a good degree, perhaps a PhD and a couple of successful post-docs under your belt, you start to realise that the majority of senior scientists within your organisation are men! Of course they are not expected to juggle a career with family commitments and we all know that single-mindedly following one’s ambition comes more naturally to the male of the species! So, how can you break through the glass ceiling and achieve your goals?
This one day meeting will bring together women from many different scientific backgrounds and at different stages in their careers, all with inspirational life stories, who are challenging the old order. There will be talks and advice from experts to help with CVs, grant and fellowship writing, interview techniques, time management, networking and a whole host of the oth... | | By: Mums in Science | | |
| | A Parent's Guide To Surviving The Teen Years | | 2007-04-11 10:20:00 | | You've lived through 2 AM feedings, toddler temper tantrums, and the but-I-don't-want-to-go-to-school-today blues. So why is the word "teenager" causing you so much anxiety?When you consider that the teen years are a period of intense growth, not only physically but morally and intellectually, it's understandable that it's a time of confusion and upheaval for many families.Despite some adults' negative perceptions about teens, they are often energetic, thoughtful, and idealistic, with a deep interest in what's fair and right. So, although it can be a period of conflict between parent and child, the teen years are also a time to help children grow into the distinct individuals they will become.Understanding the Teen YearsSo when, exactly, does adolescence start? The message to send your kid is: Everybody's different. There are early bloomers, late arrivals, speedy developers, and slow-but-steady growers. In other words, there's a wide range of what's considered normal.But it's... | | By: Parenting Tricks For Teens | | |
