I'm an Insomniac

What is Insomnia?
Insomnia is a 2002 American remake of a 1997 Norwegian film about a police officer investigating a murder above the Arctic Circle and suffering insomnia due to the midnight sun and his guilt over past and present misdeeds. The film was directed by Christopher Nolan and starred Al Pacino, Robin Williams and Hilary Swank.

Insomniac is the fourth studio album from the punk rock band Green Day. It was released in 1995 on the Reprise Records label. Though it reached #2 in the U.S. and went 2x Platinum, Insomniac did not have the sales endurance of its predecessor, Dookie, largely due to its slightly darker lyrical tone and more abrasive sound. Though many consider Insomniac to be more consistent than Dookie, it did not feature a well-known hit single akin to “Longview” or “Basket Case” from Dookie or “Good Riddance (Time of Your Life)” from Nimrod. Before the name ‘Insomniac’, the band considered the naming the album ‘Tight Wad Hill’ (after the thirteenth track of the album). After visiting collage artist Winston Smith for the album cover, Billie Joe Armstrong asked him how he managed to make such intricate pieces in such short times. Smith answered, “It’s easy for me. I am an insomniac.” Insomniac has sold 2 million units in the United States as of August 2006. It is Green Day’s third biggest selling album after Dookie and American Idiot.

Insomnia is a sleep disorder characterized by an inability to sleep and/or inability to remain asleep for a reasonable period. Insomniacs typically complain of being unable to close their eyes or “rest their mind” for more than a few minutes at a time. Both organic and nonorganic insomnia constitute a sleep disorder. It can be caused by fear, stress, anxiety, medications, herbs, caffeine, depression, bipolar disorder, emotional or mental tension, work problems, financial stress, unsatisfactory sex life and sometimes occurs for no apparent reason. An overactive mind or physical pain may also be causes. Finding the underlying cause of insomnia is usually necessary to cure it. Insomnia can be common after the loss of a loved one, even months or a year after the death, if they are not grieving correctly (pretending they are over it when they are not). It very often occurs when the person has a lack of food or not enough variety of foods (such as eating one food over and over again). It is common for insomniacs to sleep walk and/ or have very vivid & intense dreams.

What Your Underwear Tells About You

Polka-dotted lingerie near your cleavage or silky g-string lace on your waist may disclose you more than you might think. Underwear type, color and fabric can talk much about personality as different people choose different undergarment. Have you ever wondered what type of wearer you are? Or maybe you want to guess your date’s temper?
Although women seem to have been given preference to be mad about clothing, men can choose from pretty wide selection of underwear types as well. Those who can’t live without briefs are reliable, but slaves of their habits. Don’t ask them to quit smoking or throw away toy soldiers collection! They don’t like to change their wardrobe, their free time activities nor comfortable life with parents. However men of this type are very stable and faithful. While a woman in granny panties is too shy and conservative to let anyone see her lingerie. People wearing briefs only pay attention to comfort, but ignores any trends. They are usually predictable and skip innovations. Mind that granny panties cover up a lot of body from upper thighs to belly button; if a girl choose to wear those, she doesn’t feel comfortable with her body.
Boxer shorts are the most popular pants type among men and pretty widespread among women. Boxers wearers are relaxed and self-confident men. They like the comfort but they also like to look good. A man wearing boxers knows how to choose wine in a restaurant, but he won’t tire you with snobbish talks nor try to get you deadly drunk. This type of men is the golden mean.
Girlie boxer pants differ from boxers for guys as it shows a bit of upper thighs and backside. Girl in boxers enjoys challenges and winning new territories. But don’t hurry up to imagine a feminist warrior. She knows when to tease, but she’s very feminine. Boxers wearer usually lives active life.
If a woman wears matching pants and bra, she’s most likely to be a real fashion follower. She knows the title of that new song on the radio and the list of most popular cafeterias in the town. She’s welcome in parties for her communicative temper. But watch out: she would rather go shopping than dating. However you can take her interest with tickets to brand-new movie.
The most common pants among women are bikinis. Girl wearing this type of underwear pays most attention to comfort. She is practical, but she likes to wear nice things. However you won’t see this woman in stockings nor corset, it’s too daring for her.
A woman in thongs or G-strings and lacy lingerie definitely likes to feel sexy. She won’t blush from a compliment and won’t be shy to tell her opinion about anything. Also a woman of this type won’t wait for a guy to introduce himself; she dares to run about after the one she likes. Thongs wearers are usually in the center of attention for their flirty talks.
While women wear thongs to compliment their shapes and avoid panty-lines, this type of underwear is pretty rear among men. If you’ve met a guy in thongs, you can be 90% sure he’s a stripper. The other ten percent are possible narcissuses that like to expose their goodies and sacrifice comfort for that. Man in thongs is party animal and swaggers about his sexual achievements.
Fabric and color of underwear can tell a lot as well. Fluffy clothing refers to playful person, while leather lingerie signalize its wearer won’t be stable in relationships. Silky underwear tells that person cherish her body and has a turn to pleasures.
Girlie and romantic persons choose white, sweet pink or flowers patterned lingerie, but daring pink warns about seductive and sensual woman. Red underwear shouts about energetic girl that loves to demonstrate her sexuality. Lovers of purple and yellow colors are original and unique; they are imaginative and creative in every way of their life including bed. Blue underwear is preferred by sensitive people, while green underwear discloses stable person that loves to be in charge and give commands. People that choose black undergarment are self-confident and know what they want. Bright colored or speckled with funny pictures underwear means that its owner doesn’t care about anyone’s opinion. However if you see a guy in strange patterned pants, it’s possible that his mom still holds him under control.
Underwear is no longer thingies to hide; they help people to create their style. But don’t follow these tips blindly; a girl in leather and chains can be sensitive and romantic person too.

Love Messages

  • There are 12 months a year… 30 days a month… 7 days a week… 24 hours a day… 60 minutes an hour… but only one like you in a lifetime.
  • Great minds contain ideas, solutions and reasons; scientific minds contain formulas, theories and figures; my mind contains only you!
  • Love can be expressed in many ways. One way I know is to send it across the distance to the person who is reading this.
  • There is night so we can appreciate day, sorrow so we can appreciate joy, evil so we can appreciate good, you so I can appreciate love.
  • What is love? Those who don’t like it call it responsibility. Those who play with it call it a game. Those who don’t have it call it a dream. Those who understand it call it destiny. And me, I call it you.
  • If love can be avoided by simply closing our eyes, then I wouldn’t blink at all for I don’t want to let a second pass having fallen out of love with you.

  • They say that as long as there is one person loving you, life isn’t a waste. So if you lose hope and thought that life is not worth living, just remember I’m here.
  • They told me I could do anything if I put my mind into it. Yet no matter how hard I try in all that I do, I just can’t take my mind off you.

  • Don’t say you love me unless you really mean it cause I might do something crazy like believe it.

  • The spaces between our fingers were created so that another person’s fingers could fill them in. Hope you’ll find your dream hand to hold you forever.
  • Every part of me wants you, maybe because I was made just for you!
  • If you were a wound inside my heart, I’d rather leave it there with all the pain locked inside than leave it without a trace of you.
  • Whenever you feel blue, I will be there for you. Whenever you are sad, I will stay by your side. Whenever you need someone to love, I will always be there for you to have.
  • I hate when you smile at me because you make me crazy about you. I hate when you talk to me because you make me run out of words. I hate you when I see you because you make me love you more.
  • What good is beauty without brains, looks without charm, money without happiness, a smile without feelings, a life without you?
  • A person you love is an extension of yourself. Without it, you’re not complete so better take care of yourself because I don’t want to lose a part of me.
  • I wish my eyes could speak what my heart feels for you, coz my lips can lie on what is true. My eyes couldn’t coz even if I close them I could still see you.
  • I have you! If you hate me, shoot me with an arrow, but please not on the heart coz that’s were you are!

  • You must be a thief coz you stole my heart. You must be tired coz you’re always running through my mind. And maybe I’m a bad shooter coz I keep missing you.
  • I asked God for a rose and He gave me a garden. I asked God for a drop of water and He gave me an ocean. I asked God for an angel and He gave me you!
  • If someone would ask me what a beautiful life means, I would lean my head on your shoulder and hold you close to me and answer with a smile: “Like this!”
  • If only one star would fall every time I miss you, then all the stars in heaven would be gone. Don’t wonder if there are no stars tonight! It’s your fault coz you made me miss you a lot.
  • Life may sometimes be a rough road to walk on where everything seems wrong. But don’t give up. Just go on coz when you think you’re all alone, look back and you’ll find me walking along.
  • They say as long as at least one person cares for you, life isn’t a waste. So when things go terribly wrong, and you feel like giving up, please remember you still got me.
  • True love is hard to find, special one, one of a kind. I know because it appeared to me on a strange day I met you.
  • I’ve been wondering why you’re not texting… Multiple Choice: a. busy b. dedma c. tired d. thrifty e. want me to miss you.
  • An angel asked me a reason why I care for you so much. I told her I care for you so much coz there’s no reason not to.
  • First time I saw you, I was scared to touch you. First time I touched you, I was scared to kiss you. First time I kissed you, I was scared to love you. But now that I love you, I’m scared to lose you!
  • If love is a disease then I’m very ill. But I would not want medicine and won’t take any pill. I would instead suffer this illness and be bedridden with joy of knowing you.
  • I will walk with you side by side for only one condition: hide your wings every time we walk together because the whole world might know that you’re my angel!
  • I used to think that the world is so unfair, that it gave me so many reasons to hate it. But now, how can I hate such a wonderful world that gave me you?
  • Can I say I love you today? If not, can I ask you again tomorrow? And the day after tomorrow? And the day after that? Coz I’ll be loving you every single day of my life.
  • You greeted me hi, I didn't reply. You gave me a sweet smile, I responded with a sigh. You showed me your love, you received a shrug. But when you bid goodbye I began to cry.

A Strong Woman vs Woman of Strength

A strong woman works out every day to keep her body in shape... 
but a woman of strength kneels in prayer to keep her soul in shape... 

A strong woman isn't afraid of anything... 
but a woman of strength shows courage in the midst of her fear... 

A strong woman won't let anyone get the best of her... 
but a woman of strength gives the best of her to everyone... 

A strong woman makes mistakes and avoids the same in the future... 
a woman of strength realizes life's mistakes can also be God's blessings and capitalizes on them... 

A strong woman walks sure footedly... 
but a woman of strength knows God will catch her when she falls... 

A strong woman wears the look of confidence on her face... 
but a woman of strength wears grace... 

A strong woman has faith that she is strong enough for the journey... 
but a woman of strength has faith that it is in the journey that she will become strong...

Eleven People on A Rope

Eleven people were hanging on a rope under a helicopter. There were 10 men & 1 woman which have been saved from flood. The rope was not strong enough to carry them all. So, they decided to that 1 of them had to leave. If not, they all will going to fall. 

Because of the situation, they weren't able to choose that person, until the woman gave a very touching speech…..

She said that she would voluntarily to let go of the rope because as a woman she was used to giving up everything for her husband & her kids or for a men in general. And was used to always making sacrifices with little in return.

As soon as she finished her speech,

Then all men on the rope clapping their hands…..

Taumatawhakatangihangakoauauotamateaturipukakapikimaungahoronukupokaiwhenuakitanatahu

Taumatawhakatangihangakoauauotamateaturipukakapikimaungahoronukupokaiwhenuakitanatahu is the Māori name for a hill, 305 metres high, close to Porangahau, south of Waipukurau in southern Hawke’s Bay, New Zealand.

Some additional info here…

The name on the sign that marks this hill is “Taumatawhakatangihangakoauauotamateaturipukakapikimaungahoronukupokaiwhenuakitanatahu”, which translates roughly as The summit where Tamatea, the man with the big knees, the climber of mountains, the land-swallower who travelled about, played his nose flute to his loved one. At 85 letters, it is one of the longest place names in the world.

The longest place name in the world, according to the Guinness Book of Records, is Bangkok’s full ceremonial name given by King Buddha Yodfa Chulaloke, and later edited by King Mongkut, nearly doubles that and is called “Krung Thep Mahanakhon Amon Rattanakosin Mahinthara Yuthaya Mahadilok Phop Noppharat Ratchathani Burirom Udomratchaniwet Mahasathan Amon Piman Awatan Sathit Sakkathattiya Witsanukam Prasit.”

p.s. I wonder what’s the longest place name in Sabah? Anyone????
