artsy fartsy nails!

something came over me one day that made me go find nail polish and start 2 deco my nails.. i guess i had nothing better to do, so i decided to venture out and try something new.. hehe.. and look what turned out!

neva hav i ever done my own nails like dis... pretty funky no? ;p
i have found my new interest... :D
* dont kutuk my fingers.. i knw they're not d best lookin!!*


V-day came n went just like that this year...again..afta graduating frm high skool it has bcame just another day to me... last time in skool it used to be one of d most happenin days coz weeks before we would be busy making the presents and getting orders from students... then on the day we would skip classes to deliver the orders.. it was real good fun!! on top of dat we would give each other lil prezies n roses pretending it 2 b frm our 'so-called' admirers... those were d good ol times!!

but now.. well lets say it has become more of S.A.D - single awareness day..as JJ n Rudy puts it.. lucky me i had full day of classes 2 keep me busy.. and at nite we went 2 meet some baha'i pioneers frm china..it was all good..
im happy 2 b surrounded by frens n sibs who r thre 4 me..
LUV u PeEPZ!

r we prejudiced?

lately in our social psych class we have been discussing about prejudice, discrimination n stereotyping.. we even had 2 watch Crash and do a review about it... from the movie(which is an awesome movie btw), we see that all of us prejudiced people, wheather we like it or not... we stereotype people because it is convenient for us to 'figure' them out... think about this..




but we were not born prejudiced... small chlidren are the purest humans..they do not care who you are, as long as you love them, they will love you back.
Bahá'u'lláh has also taught that prejudices, whether religious, racial, patriotic or political are destructive to the foundations of human development. Prejudices of any kind are the destroyers of human happiness and welfare. Until they are dispelled the advancement of the world of humanity is not possible, yet racial, religious and national bias are observed everywhere. For thousands of years the world of humanity has been agitated and disturbed by prejudices. As long as it prevails, warfare, animosity and hatred will continue. Therefore if we seek to establish peace we must cast aside this obstacle, for otherwise agreement and composure are not to be attained (Abdu'l-Baha, Baha'i World Faith - Abdu'l-Baha Section, p. 240)if we want to make this world a better place, it always has to start with our self.. by being aware that we have our prejudices and we do sterreotype people is the 1st step to stop being prejudiced. once we are aware.. i think the liklihood of us discrminating or stereotyping someone else will be much less.. it is so bloody hard sometimes, because we already have preassumed things of people when we see them.. but if we look at their positive side, it will help us to love them. if a person has 9 bad qualities and 1 good quality, we should always focus on that good quality and try to grow from there.this is also why children should be educated from young to love everyone, regardless of color, religion, size, etc... so that when they grow up, they wont be prejudiced people...
after all humanity was created from the same stock...
so spread the love ya'll..!!
