Paths walked for a purpose!

Ever 'studied' something for years and then just quit cause you 'hated' it, only to end up regretting your decision?

Ever fought with your really close friend and end up not talking for like years?

Ever been back-stabbed by people just so that they can climb over you to get something they want?

Ever been hated by people when all you're doing is for their own good?

Ever told someone the truth about what others think about them only to have them hate you?

Ever wished that you had told them how you feel rather than keeping it in?

Ever watched the one you love from afar... never going near?

Ever break up a relationship so that your precious person can find their own happiness?

Ever wished that you had done something different that would have changed the current present situation?

Ever said something that you could never take back?

etc... etc... etc...

I have... I quit ballet and music only to regret it... I fought with my close friend and until now we hardly talk ( not a word for 3 years)... People have spoken so badly of me in front of a superior so as to get something from me that they want so desperately... I've been hated by a whole group of people when all I was doing was helping them stay away from punishment...I have told numerous people the truth about what others are saying only to have them take it so negatively... I have regretted not expressing my true feelings... I've watched the one I treasured continue on with life... I've allowed him to find his own happiness... I've done so many things I wish I could just change... I've said too many things that I could not take back...

BUT IN ALL THESE REGRETS... I live only to find out that I actually do not regret them....

I've gone through so many experiences with a purpose... 

Yes... A PURPOSE...

That I may understand those that go through them... that I may be a source of strength and an example to others stating that these things should NEVER EVER PULL A PERSON DOWN!! The are the bones that have been broken for us to learn from... We only have so many bones that we can break... That's why we have to learn from others.. And I'm proud and SO SHOULD YOU that mine and your broken bones can be examples for others to learn from... Save their bones for other experiences...

NEVER GO ON WITH LIFE WITH REGRET! Look back and see what you have learnt from these experiences...believe me.. you will be amazed at how these painful experiences have allowed you to GROW...

Creamy Carbonara~ (mushroom flavour??)

Haven't got cheese at home??? Not to worry! You still can whip up a super easy carbonara which will match those that use "raw cheese"~

All you need is:-
a) 1 can of Cheese and Herb Prego Sauce
b) 2 cans of Campbell Mushroom Soup (Large cans)
c) Fresh Oyster Mushrooms (or mushrooms of your own choice)
d) Streaky Bacon ( As much as you love)
e) Shallots and Garlic (not a necessity~ )
f) Pasta of your choice~ ( I still love the normal spaghetti ) 

YES! Only these few ingredients is needed! So here is what you gotta do:-
1) Fry the bacon with as little oil as possible, till crispy. Remove them from heat and cool them off on some paper towels to remove excess oil. Keep 2 tbsp of bacon oil from the pan. Cut the bacon to small pieces.
2) Use a little bit of butter to fry the CHOPPED shallots and garlic. (I find that butter makes the best fragrance). Fry till fragrant.
3) Add mushrooms and continue to fry till the mushrooms are cooked.
4) Pour the 2 cans of mushroom soup paste and add 1 1/2 cans of water and cook till boiling.
5) Add the 1 can of prego sauce.
6) Cook the pasta, drain and toss with 1 tbsp of bacon oil.
6) Continue stirring till well mixed. The longer you cook, the creamier the sauce.
7) Just before serving, add in the bacon (not too long or they will be soggy) and cook for another 5 minutes.
8) Serve hot on pasta and YOU"RE DONE!

Isn't it just simple~ This recipe is more of a mushroom taste. For a more cheesy effect just add loads of  shredded Parmesan Cheese to your plate of pasta~ Enjoy~

Bisous,

MOST fragile in the world

What wins the award for being the MOST fragile?
Is it glass???
Is is life???
No.... No....Never.....

What builds with time and effort?
What builds with love and care?
What builds with honesty and truth?
What builds with just being yourself?

What can break with just a touch?
What can break with just a word?
What can break with just an action?
What can break with just a look?

What takes so long to strengthens?
What breaks in just seconds?
What takes so long to nurture?
What backfires it in just seconds?


There are so many friends just like that,
Close with them for a while, worlds a part next...
But you know.. true friendship exists...
All it takes is a few giant leaps.... and a recipe for eternity...

Housekeeping 101

1 question is enough to keep you thinking..... and it is...

WHAT IS GONNA HAPPEN IF THE HOUSEKEEPING DEPARTMENT DOESN'T EXIST IN A HOTEL?????

Learn all about housekeeping and its importance at http://magicsweepsu.blogspot.com/ ~

This blog has been created as a housekeeping awareness campaign (part of my assignment in uni). In the blog, you will be able to learn about the importance of housekeeping, and what are the tasks SUPPOSED to be done whilst cleaning you rooms and etc. Housekeeping Department of a hotel is always taken for-granted. They are the 'maids' in the hotel and are constantly looked down on, overworked! and under paid. Imagine life without them???

This blog is also to create awareness for the current people and people who intent to work in this department about what is currently happening in the industry. How clean are the rooms??? How well inspected are they?? Are the right chemicals used?? Are they used properly???

So if you're free, feel free to drop by the blog and we will be ever so grateful if you would be so kind to provide us with your comments and suggestions. This is a group project done by my housekeeping classmates and myself.

Cheers~

1 life, 1 chance, 1 change

Each of us received a gift,
Each of us redeemed that gift;
A gift that comes once in eternity,
A gift that once lost, disappears forever.

One life was given,
One life is all we have;
Only a short time to eternity,
Only a short time to accomplish what is needed.

There were no rules,
There were no regulations;
On how we are to live our life,
On how we are to live its best.

We came to this lost world,
We came to this messed up land;
But what is our purpose,
But what is our reason for living.

Each of us has a gift,
Each of us has a talent;
One that can influence the world,
One that can make a change.

How you may ask, are we to use it?
How you may ask, can we make a change?
That alone is our sole purpose,
That alone is our reason for living.

To discover about our talents and gifts,
To discover how it can change lives;
Big or small, it all sums up,
Big or small, just know, you count.

There is no soul that is worth nothing,
There is no soul that is useless;
Everyone has a part in His plan,
Everyone has something he/she needs to do.

So discover that one thing,
So discover your mission;
We're living in a messed up world,
We're living in it together.

Step up! And take the challenge!
For all of us are the world's ONLY hope for change!

A second gone, is a chance gone.... treasure each breath you take on this earth...it won't last forever
