You would have thought I learned my lesson......This is my last blog for the class. I really wish i would have taken more time and followed my own advice, haha, that's not not to say my advice does not work, it does, you just need to actually follow it.... I hope i learn my lesson after this experience. Like I said PROCRASTINATION is the THIEF of TIME. If you take your time with something instead of rushing you enjoy it much more, learn from it, and have more time to NOT be STRESSING. I hope we all learn to do things before we have to cram, in the the real world we won't be allowed to turn in late assignments..... Thank you and i wish i would have been able to enjoy this blogging experience much more.....No more procrastinating

10 most dangerous Foods to Eat while driving.


i read an article on care2.com/greenliving on the 10 most dangerous foods to eat while driving. I don't know if i completely agree with all of them but what I do agree with is it can get pretty messy. Since I'm a commuter student i have to eat while I'm driving sometimes, or i wouldn't have time to eat. Let's see if you agree!!!!!
1. Coffee is most likely to spill out of the cup even with a lid when you hit a bump.
2. Hot soup is also likely to spill out of the cup when you hit a bump because many people drink hot soup like they drink coffee while driving.
3. Tacos are an extremely dangerous food to eat while driving because it is a proven fact that any food that can disassemble itself while you are driving is sure to distract you.
4. Chili dogs are dangerous for the same reasons as tacos; however, they are also much messier and will drip down the front of your shirt, thus causing you to be even more distracted.
5. Hamburgers are considered one of the most dangerous foods to eat while driving because you eat them with your hands and the grease then gets on the steering wheel, possibly making it very slippery.
6. Ribs and wings. They are messy and distracting and you will lick your fingers while eating them.
7. Fried chicken will also cause your hands and the steering wheel to get greasy and be slippery
8. Jelly donuts are dangerous because no one has ever eaten one without watching the jelly ooze out of the middle.
9. Soda easily splashes out from a cup or a can.10. Chocolate melts and then you are trying to get it off the steering wheel without swerving

Every Relationship is Different



If you've been disappointed by strained relations with a friend or loved one, you must realize that each relationship is unique. Don't let tension with one person convince you that other relationships will turn out the same. We tend to build a wall to new relationships before they even begin. I had an ex boyfriend who was unfaithful to me, i admit it went pretty bad for my next boyfriend. I wasn't really trusting, and trust is a huge part of a relationship, poor guy so you know it didn't end well. You can't bring old baggage to a new relationship whether it be a friend or boyfriend/girlfriend, any type of relationship.....

Be Open To New Ideas

Never stop learning and adapting. The world will always be changing. If you limit yourself to what you knew and what you were comfortable with earlier in life, you will grow increasingly frustrated with your surroundings as you age. (The 100 Simple secrets of Happy People).

Principles and values should be cherished, and of course memories, but there is a difference between principle and stubborn practice. Those who resist change are more likely to feel unhappy. Change is good, sometimes we need to step out of our daily routine, we become more open-minded, which is never a bad thing. if you become a person who easily adapts to changes you become a more pleasant person to be around. Of course you don't need to change your beliefs in order to adapt to change, it all can still fit together.

Top 5 Brain Foods

1. Wild salmon is not only an incredible food for brain health, it qualifies as incredible across virtually every other health standard as well and is clearly one of the healthiest foods that one can eat.
2. cacao bean, Not Chocolate.....minimally processed. This amazing, hedonistic bean is one of the world's longest-revered foods (think 'time of the Aztecs' old) and has in recent years been shown to be a veritable powerhouse of cognitive enhancement, mood and bliss-enhancement (thanks in part to the Theobromine in cacao), antioxidants, flavonoids, catechins and many other brain & body-enhancing elements.
3. Matcha (stone-ground Gyokuru green tea powder)
4. Acai berries & Blueberries:Acai...a berry that possesses not only all of the antioxidant, vitamin and brain benefits of other purple berries such as blueberries and blackberries but also (oddly, for a berry) contains Essential Fatty Acids like Omega-3's like salmon, and and is even high in protein.
5. Coffee beans: ncredibly rich with antioxidants, amino acids, vitamins and minerals. Fresh-ground gently roasted coffee bean powder (again, like with cacao) has numerous brain and body health benefits...yes, including the caffeine content which has recently been shown to be GOOD for the brain, not bad, and particularly in the area of antioxidants.
