Regarding love languages, it is important to know another person's love language. To be able to effectively communicate to the person. Due to the fact that different people have very different love languages. To some, words of affirmation takes a stronger hold in their lives. Many would prefer quality time as the way to show that they are loved. So, you've got to find the right one and display it to the specific person. If not, you'll be spending unnecessary time and effort (and even money) to show that you care. And it may turn out disappointing, and even to the extent of frustration. Happens across all relationships. Communication.
To me, I would prefer a big hug or just slinging over the shoulders compared to other ways because, humans are made to be sensitive to touch. And physical touch is just a way of re-assuring another person that, "Hey, I'll be here, if you ever need me." Kind of like the best conversations are normally not said, but felt. That being said, it'll depends on who shows it. Hahaha. So that's why when you show somebody your love language, make sure the right message is conveyed. =D
Past 2 weeks, nothing much has happened, I guess. Apart from the constant studying and mugging. I'm beginning to appreciate the weekends more. Especially my sundays. Don't ask me why, it's a random thought. And spending my sundays studying for my examinations, somehow doesn't compel it as relaxation. But even so, it's a different feeling altogether. Having little kids looking at you, wondering what are you doing on a bright sunny sunday afternoon with piles of books and notes on your McDonalds' table. Their parents simply say, "Ah Boy/Girl, come here. Don't disturb the kor-kor studying." People looking at you, because books and notes were never considered part of a Sunday item. Hungry souls sometimes grumble because you've taken up their favourite spot for their favourite Sunday meal. It's just a different atmosphere. Like what people always say, sometimes, you just have to slower your steps, and realise the beautiful things around you.
I had to give up a $15 per hour job. Because I have examinations round the corner. Argh.
Watched this interesting show on discovery channel, most evil. On the show, forensic pschiatrist, Michael Stone from Columbia University, rates murderers on a scale of evil that he has developed in order to help science understand and thus prevent this type of behaviour. Partial re-enactments are shown along with news footage, evidence, and reports from locals. Neurological, environmental, and genetic factors are examined to help determine what drives a person to kill. Background history and pre-meditation are considered when placing an individual on the scale of evil. The show indirectly deals with the concepts of morality and ethics.
The scale of evil
Category: Criteria
01: Those who kill in self-defense and do not show psychopathic tendencies
02: Jealous lovers who, though egocentric or immature, are not psychopathic
03: Willing companions of killers: aberrant personality — probably impulse-ridden, with antisocial traits
04: Kill in self-defense, but had been extremely provocative towards the victim
05: Traumatized, desperate people who kill abusive relatives and others (like to support a drug habit) but lack significant traits. Genuinely remorseful.
06: Impetuous, hotheaded murderers, yet without marked psychopathic features
07: Highly narcissistic, not distinctly psychopathic people with a psychotic core who kill people close to them (jealousy an underlying motive)
08: Non psychopathic people with smoldering rage who kill when rage is ignited
09: Jealous lovers with psychopathic features
10: Killers of people who were "in the way" or who killed, for example, witnesses (egocentric but not distinctly psychopathic)
11: Psychopathic killers of people "in the way"
12: Power-hungry psychopaths who killed when they were "cornered"
13: Killers with inadequate, rage-filled personalities who "snapped"
14: Ruthlessly self-centered psychopathic schemers
15: Psychopathic "cold-blooded" spree or multiple murders
16: Psychopaths committing multiple vicious acts
17: Sexually perverse serial murderers, torture-murderers (among the males, rape is the primary motive with murder to hide the evidence; Systematic torture is not a primary factor)
18: Torture-murderers with murder the primary motive
19: Psychopaths driven to terrorism, subjugation, intimidation and rape, (short of murder)
20: Torture murderers with torture as the primary motive but in psychotic personalities
21: Psychopaths preoccupied with torture in the extreme, but not known to have committed murder
22: Psychopathic torture-murderers, with torture their primary motive
Just find it very interesting. How that people can kill for so many reasons. I used to thought that there are only 3 levels. Well, you learn something new everyday. =)
Till next time,
Till the last trumpet sound.

Fall For You by Secondhand Serenade
The best thing about tonight's that we're not fighting
Could it be that we have been this way before
I know you don't think that I am trying
I know you're wearing thin down to the core
But hold your breath
Because tonight will be the night that I will fall for you
Over again
Don't make me change my mind
Or I wont live to see another day
I swear it's true
Because a girl like you is impossible to find
You're impossible to find
This is not what I intended
I always swore to you i'd never fall apart
You always thought that I was stronger
I may have failed
But I have loved you from the start
Ohhhh
So breathe in so deep
Breathe me in
I'm yours to keep
And hold onto your words
'Cause talk is cheap
And remember me tonight
When your asleep
Because tonight will be the night that I will fall for you
Over again
Don't make me change my mind
Or I wont live to see another day
I swear it's true
Because a girl like you is impossible to find
Tonight will be the night that I will fall for you
Over again
Don't make me change my mind
Or I wont live to see another day
I swear it's true
Because a girl like you is impossible to find
You're impossible to find
