Let's have a happier life

POINTS ON HOW TO IMPROVE YOUR LIFE

Personality:
1. Don't compare your life to others'. You have no idea what their journey is all about.
2. Don't have negative thoughts of things you cannot control. Instead invest your energy in the positive present moment
3. Don't over do; keep your limits
4. Don't take yourself so seriously; no one else does
5. Don't waste your precious energy on gossip
6. Dream more while you are awake
7. Envy is a waste of time. You already have all you need..
8. Forget issues of the past. Don't remind your partner of his/her mistakes of the past. That will ruin your present happiness.
9. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone. Don't hate others.
10. Make peace with your past so it won't spoil the present
11. No one is in charge of your happiness except you
12. Realize that life is a school and you are here to learn.
Problems are simply part of the curriculum that appear and fade away like algebra class but the lessons you learn will last a lifetime.
13. Smile and laugh more
14. You don't have to win every argument. Agree to disagree.

Community:
15. Call your family often
16. Each day give something good to others
17. Forgive everyone for everything
18. Spend time with people over the age of 70 & under the age of 6
19. Try to make at least three people smile each day
20. What other people think of you is none of your business
21. Your job will not take care of you when you are sick. Your family and friends will. Stay in touch.

Life:
22. Put GOD first in anything and everything that you think, say and do.
23. GOD heals everything
24. Do the right things
25. However good or bad a situation is, it will change
26. No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up
27. The best is yet to come
28. Get rid of anything that isn't useful, beautiful or joyful
29. When you awake alive in the morning, thank GOD for it
30. If you know GOD you will always be happy. So, be happy.

While you practice all of the above, share this knowledge with the people you love, people you school with,
people you play with, people you work with and people you live with.
Not only will it enrich YOUR life, but also that of those around you.

Yeah ! Youtube accepts our At This Moment video as "educational"

Our At This Moment demo is our first video in which we did a walk through before the dance demo. As the song is under copyright , Youtube sent an email informing us of the violation. We disputed the claim stating that although we have used copyright material we have not violated it as our video is educational in nature and it will help line dancers to learn the dance.
The violation has been uplifted.
We shall do a walk through for all our future videos.


Many thanks to Mariana for taking the video below (the teach is the same as taken by Michael but the dance demo is different .)

La Colegiala & Linda Eh & others for Our Jamming Party 8 Aug 2010

Thanks everybody for coming to our jamming, especially those who have to travel so far to join us.
We had a great time eating, dancing and played 2 games , a line dance quiz and a game to test our memory. Many thanks to Mrs Thien who played "MR BEAN" and to all participants who took part. It was hilarious.
We were entertained to a dance performance, 'La Colegiala'. All the dancers were only taught the dance on Sat (7/8/10) during our class and they did a splendid performance the next day (8/8/10). A big Thank You to all the dancers. And many thanks to our MC who introduced the dancers - she is our NEE NEE VOON .
Thanks to our camera/video "future professionals" and everyone who has helped in one way or another to contribute to the success of the party.
