A lecturer was giving a lecture to his students on stress management. He raised a glass of water and asked the audience, "How heavy do you think this glass of water is?"
The students' answers ranged from 20g to 500g.
"It does not matter on the absolute weight. It depends on how long you hold it.
If I hold it for a minute, it is OK.
If I hold it for an hour, I will have an ache in my right arm.
If I hold it for a day, you will have to call an ambulance.
It is the exact same weight, but the longer I hold it, the heavier it becomes."
"If we carry our burdens all the time, sooner or later, we will not be able to carry on, the burden becoming increasingly heavier."
"What you have to do is to put the glass down, rest for a while before holding it up again."
We have to put down the burden periodically, so that we can be refreshed and are able to carry on.
So before you return home from work tonight, put the burden of work down. Don't carry it back home. You can pick it up tomorrow.
Whatever burdens you are having now on your shoulders, let it down for a moment if you can.
Pick it up again later when you have rested...
Rest and relax.
Life is short, enjoy it!

NANA
We went to see the movie, NANA, last night. I have been waiting for this movie for quite a while. After listening to its songs and sounds track for months, I finally get to see the movie.
http://www.nana-movie.com
It's about love, friendship, and dream. And the positive thing about the movie is that these people chasing for their dreams without affecting the people around them. They take up the responsibilities. And unlike many others who said they have dreams too, which is actually wasting their lives, these people know what they want and make it happens.
Also, the friendship between the 2 NANA is very sweet. The relationship is a bit hard to be understood by a guy. But being there for each other is very sweet already. I think I will buy a DVD later to watch it again.

Pinhole Camera
I've bought a new pinhole camera yesterday. Actually, it came in a set of science magazine and experiment. And I've used it to take photos for the whole day. It's very fun, but extremely difficult to use. I've already used tripod. But still difficult to get a sharp and clear image.
