And Now I'm Back
Finally, I’m back to blogging world. It’s been a while since I had my last post because I barely had a chance to go online and update my blog. I’ve been so busy these past couple of weeks since I have to look for a job and lucky for me, I did find one.
I started working last Monday and I’m quite enjoying it since it suits my field of interests. Definitely, this will be a great foundation of my career and I know this can be a big help to improve my skills in Architecture.
Needless to say, I’m looking forward to explore more stuff about blogging. I still want to develop my skills in writing and share more of my stories to my fellow bloggers. I still need to catch up and familiarize myself with this thing.

color symbolism
"Colors, like features, follow the changes of the emotions." --Pablo Picasso
"Of all God's gifts to the sighted man, color is holiest, the most divine, the most solemn." --John Ruskin
Meaning of the Color Blue Blue is the overwhelming "favorite color." Blue is seen as trustworthy, dependable and committed. The color of sky and the ocean, blue is perceived as a constant in our lives. As the collective color of the spirit, it invokes rest and can cause the body to produce chemicals that are calming; however not all blues are serene and sedate. Electric or brilliant blues become dynamic and dramatic, an engaging color that expresses exhilaration. Some shades or the overuse of blue may come across as cold or uncaring. Blue is the least "gender specific" color, having equal appeal to both men and women.
How the color blue effects us physically and mentally* Calming and sedate* Cooling* Aids intuition
Meaning of the Color Green Green occupies more space in the spectrum visible to the human eye and is second only to blue as a favorite color. Green is the pervasive color in the natural world that is an ideal backdrop in interior design because we are so used to seeing it everywhere. The natural greens, from forest to lime, are seen as tranquil and refreshing, with a natural balance of cool and warm (blue and yellow) undertones. Green is considered the color of peace and ecology. However, there is an "institutional" side to green, associated with illness or Government-issued that conjure up negative emotions as do the "slimy" or bilious greens.
How the color green effects us physically and mentally* Soothing* Relaxing mentally as well as physically* Helps alleviate depression, nervousness and anxiety* Offers a sense of renewal, self-control and harmony
Meaning of the Color Yellow Yellow shines with optimism, enlightenment, and happiness. Shades of golden yellow carry the promise of a positive future. Yellow will advance from surrounding colors and instill optimism and energy as well as spark creative thoughts.
How the color yellow effects us mentally and physically* Mentally stimulating* Stimulates the nervous system* Activates memory* Encourages communication
Meaning of the Color Orange Orange, a close relative of red, sparks more controversy than any other hue. There is usually strong positive or negative association to orange and true orange generally elicits a stronger "love it" or "hate it" response than other colors. Fun and flamboyant orange radiates warmth and energy. Interestingly, some of the tones of orange such as terra cotta, peach or rust have very broad appeal.
How the color orange effects us mentally and physically* Stimulates activity* Stimulates appetite* Encourages socialization
Meaning of the Color Red Red has more personal associations than any other color. Recognized as a stimulant red is inherently exciting and the amount of red is directly related to the level of energy perceived. Red draws attention and a keen use of red as an accent can immediately focus attention on a particular element.
How the color red effects us mentally and physically* Increases enthusiasm* Stimulates energy* Encourages action and confidence* A sense of protection from fears and anxiety

"Of all God's gifts to the sighted man, color is holiest, the most divine, the most solemn." --John Ruskin
Meaning of the Color Blue Blue is the overwhelming "favorite color." Blue is seen as trustworthy, dependable and committed. The color of sky and the ocean, blue is perceived as a constant in our lives. As the collective color of the spirit, it invokes rest and can cause the body to produce chemicals that are calming; however not all blues are serene and sedate. Electric or brilliant blues become dynamic and dramatic, an engaging color that expresses exhilaration. Some shades or the overuse of blue may come across as cold or uncaring. Blue is the least "gender specific" color, having equal appeal to both men and women.
How the color blue effects us physically and mentally* Calming and sedate* Cooling* Aids intuition
Meaning of the Color Green Green occupies more space in the spectrum visible to the human eye and is second only to blue as a favorite color. Green is the pervasive color in the natural world that is an ideal backdrop in interior design because we are so used to seeing it everywhere. The natural greens, from forest to lime, are seen as tranquil and refreshing, with a natural balance of cool and warm (blue and yellow) undertones. Green is considered the color of peace and ecology. However, there is an "institutional" side to green, associated with illness or Government-issued that conjure up negative emotions as do the "slimy" or bilious greens.
How the color green effects us physically and mentally* Soothing* Relaxing mentally as well as physically* Helps alleviate depression, nervousness and anxiety* Offers a sense of renewal, self-control and harmony
Meaning of the Color Yellow Yellow shines with optimism, enlightenment, and happiness. Shades of golden yellow carry the promise of a positive future. Yellow will advance from surrounding colors and instill optimism and energy as well as spark creative thoughts.
How the color yellow effects us mentally and physically* Mentally stimulating* Stimulates the nervous system* Activates memory* Encourages communication
Meaning of the Color Orange Orange, a close relative of red, sparks more controversy than any other hue. There is usually strong positive or negative association to orange and true orange generally elicits a stronger "love it" or "hate it" response than other colors. Fun and flamboyant orange radiates warmth and energy. Interestingly, some of the tones of orange such as terra cotta, peach or rust have very broad appeal.
How the color orange effects us mentally and physically* Stimulates activity* Stimulates appetite* Encourages socialization
Meaning of the Color Red Red has more personal associations than any other color. Recognized as a stimulant red is inherently exciting and the amount of red is directly related to the level of energy perceived. Red draws attention and a keen use of red as an accent can immediately focus attention on a particular element.
How the color red effects us mentally and physically* Increases enthusiasm* Stimulates energy* Encourages action and confidence* A sense of protection from fears and anxiety

The science of love
When do you know if you fancy someone? What does love do to your brain chemicals, and is falling in love just nature's way to keep our species alive?
We call it love. It feels like love. But the most exhilarating of all human emotions is probably nature’s beautiful way of keeping the human species alive and reproducing.
With an irresistible cocktail of chemicals, our brain entices us to fall in love. We believe we’re choosing a partner. But we may merely be the happy victims of nature’s lovely plan.
It’s not what you say...
Psychologists have shown it takes between 90 seconds and 4 minutes to decide if you fancy someone.
Research has shown this has little to do with what is said, rather
55% is through body language
38% is the tone and speed of their voice
Only 7% is through what they say
The 3 stages of love
Helen Fisher of Rutgers University in the States has proposed 3 stages of love – lust, attraction and attachment. Each stage might be driven by different hormones and chemicals.
Stage 1: Lust
This is the first stage of love and is driven by the sex hormones testosterone and oestrogen – in both men and women.
Stage 2: Attraction
This is the amazing time when you are truly love-struck and can think of little else. Scientists think that three main neurotransmitters are involved in this stage; adrenaline, dopamine and serotonin.
Adrenaline
The initial stages of falling for someone activates your stress response, increasing your blood levels of adrenalin and cortisol. This has the charming effect that when you unexpectedly bump into your new love, you start to sweat, your heart races and your mouth goes dry.
Dopamine
Helen Fisher asked newly ‘love struck’ couples to have their brains examined and discovered they have high levels of the neurotransmitter dopamine. This chemical stimulates ‘desire and reward’ by triggering an intense rush of pleasure. It has the same effect on the brain as taking cocaine!
Fisher suggests “couples often show the signs of surging dopamine: increased energy, less need for sleep or food, focused attention and exquisite delight in smallest details of this novel relationship” .

Desperate writer (never my career)
Writing is not my talent, I really want to write but nothing would give me reason to write. For now I want to try if I can do so. My friend told me last Sunday when we were in our friend’s house surfing the net, that it is easy to write and make a blog. I know that it will be a lot easier for him because that’s what he always wanted to do. Now, it is almost 12:10am, April 14, 2008, as I look at the clock, supposedly me and my ex-college classmates planned to apply for a job early in the morning, but for an unknown reason it was postponed (what reason? Maybe, they consider me as a threat because they think that I can do a lot better than them? Haha)
This situation urged me to try this “writing” stuff. I also remember that my friend told me that I can write anything that I want or I can post anything which holds my interest. So this is my interest, to have a job which is related to my course. I am a BS Architecture graduate. I’ll take this opportunity to seek help from everyone. Hope someone will drop by and read my nonsense peace of scrap. I really want to a have a job so if there is someone out there who needs an AutoCAD operator, I am very willing to apply.
I think this is a very great beginning of a desperate writer (never my career) especially now that I am so bored doing my ordinary routine. Although this is not my passion, I still want to give it a try. So good luck for me and I hope that I can do much better next time.
