Praising your children for being intelligent can sometimes be bad for them. But praising them for their efforts can be better.

Studies show that complimenting your child for the effort that he made influences him to take risks, enjoying himself in the process. Children praised for being smart tend to choose challenges that they think they can manage. They decline difficult tests and if given, they become upset or discouraged.

I applaud Justin Timberlake for not being scared of doing stuff like this. He also made me laugh in the movie Love Guru with Mike Myers. He wasn’t scared to where swimming trunks and act dumb. Now he is wearing leotards and high hills! Maybe he is that confident of himself to pull these off.

Last Feb 14, 2009- yes Valentine’s Day!-, Gwel and Coco had their wedding. They have planned for this event and spent money for it. Those who have prepared a wedding or a debut would understand how stressful planning something like this could be.

I have come across a site called weddingbetting.com. It is a site where you can bet if a newlywed couple will make it or will end up separating based on their photo and a summary of their relationship. Your betting options are:
* barely past the altar
* eight to 15 years
* happily ever after

It is normal for people to have these opinions and keep it within themselves. It is kinda unusual to bet on something like this.. I mean, normal if you bet on sports or the lottery. It is interesting though…

Barbie is turning 50 years old!! No sign of aging whatsoever, huh!! Maybe that is why some people try to undergo a lot of cosmetic surgeries just to look like her- ageless..
