9 phrases women use

9 phrases women use

#1. "Fine" - The word women use to end an argument when they are right and you need to shut up.

#2. "Five minutes" - If she's getting dressed, this means half an hour. Five minutes is only five minutes if you've just been give five minutes to watch the game before helping around the house.

#3. "Nothing" - Calm before the storm. "Nothing" means "something". Be on your toes! Argument that begins in nothing usually end in "fine".

#4. "Go ahead" - This is a dare, not permission. Don't do it!

#5. "Loud sigh" - Not actually a word, but a nonverbal statement often misunderstood.. mostly by men. it's means you are an idiot, wonders why she is standing here, wasting her time arguing with you about "nothing".

#6. "That's okay" - One of the most dangerous statement a woman can make. she will think long and hard, before deciding how and when, you will pay for your mistake.

#7. "Thanks" - A woman is thanking you, do not question, or faint. Just say "you are welcome".

#8. "whatever" - This is a woman's way of saying "F*@% YOU!"

#9. "Don't worry about it. I got it" - Another dangerous statement! This is something a woman has told a man several times, but is now doing it herself. This will result in a man asking "What's wrong? ".. For a woman's response, refer to #3.

Macroeconomics

Caught too fast too furious, the proposal and 17 again few days back. these movies been out for quite awhile, just that i don't have the chance to watch them in the cinema, so no choice but to download and watch at home. it's great to watch on a day when there's no school and no work. so relaxing.. both the proposal and 17 again are nice, but i prefer 17 again!! how i wish i can turn back time again, and i will sure cherish it.. i really really wish i can turn back time just for once, even sacrificing 10 years of my lifespan.


anyway, i bought a textbook for macroeconomics !! And this is my 1st time buying textbook for my studies in UOL, coz the study guide for macroeconomics is damn pathetic, not much info inside, so hopefully the investment in this Oliver Blanchard textbook is worth it. Macroeconomics is real tough, no joke, totally different from what i have been perceiving last year and i hope i can understand it with the help of my lecturer and this book!! :)

"time heal all wounds"

"Time heals all wounds." how true is this statement? everyone always mention it when something not good occurs. for example, you are ditched by your boyfriend and people come and console you saying time heals all wounds. Scenario 1: 10 years later, you are still single and your ex-boyfriend has a girlfriend and they are spending their lives happily. then are you sure you will be okay when see such situation? are you sure time heals all wounds? or your wounds are pricked and deepened this time? Scenario 2: 10 years later, you are still single and your ex-boyfriend has married with his wife and has a cute baby of theirs as well. Does time heals your wounds? does your wounds still hurt? Scenario 3: 5 years later, you meet a guy that is much nicer than your ex-boyfriend and you fall in love with him and decides to marry him. so is it time have heal all wounds? In fact, theoretically time does not heal all wounds at all. it's simply nonsense and it's not proven scientifically at all. It's the events that happened within the 10 years, not the 10 years time that heal your wounds. it's that your ex-boyfriend has married a woman and given birth to a baby which makes you give up totally and thus you have no choice and find another guy to fall in love with. therefore, time is not a factor in conclusion.
