Managing Stress

Each individual has their own problem -- that's the reality! you are not a normal person if you don't have even a single one. Some of these problems are just easy to solve, while some others are very difficult to solve, pulling us down and let us to give up. these problems give us a lot of burden and pressure -- something we call as stress.

I am encountering problems in each every single day (just like what you do) -- study, family, money and some other personal propblems. Some of them gives a lot of stress. The most recent problem that almost devastated me was the death of my 'best friend', and that's my laptop. It's video card, which is very essetial, yet one of the costliest part of a computer gave up. Having it replaced will cost around two to three thousand Philippine Peso (or approxiamately 5 US dollars). Oh my! What will i do with our thesis now? My e-mail inbox? my Facebook? my blog? Goodbye online buddies! ... and my printer, what ami i be doing with it now? My school projects?


By that moment, when the strategy's still fresh, i used to think deep a lot. I use to stare in nowhere. It gave me a lot of depression.
I just have to think of ways to continue life normally, even without it. The first thing I did was, i bought a hard disk enclosure, so that I could still have access with my files. i used to read books, magazines (specially IT related one), almanacs, or anything I'm interested with. Reading those things just reminds me that I really need my laptop back! I use to listen to muisic, which leads me into a nap. Sleeping somehow help sweep away my problems away, but just temporarily. Ouch! The problem will still be there. My grief is one of the reasons why I enrolled a Call Center training class (that's well a free training). I took it to improve my English skills, although I don't have plans being a call center agent (just making sure about my future, better have plan B).Having some activities to do, talking with other people somehow eliminate the melancholy and be filled in with fun, joy and learning.
Having a positive mindset is very important to reduce stress. I just have these thoughts in mind: "What is that grieving for? You need tro move on, proceed, learn so that when yoou're prepared enough, you'll be having a good job, and that job will bring your bestfriend back."

How to Rewrite on a DVD-R and a CD-R Without any Burning Software

Part 1 Yes! you heard it right! You can now make your CD+/-R or DVD+/-R act like a rewritable one. During the Windows XP days, this is impossible. Once you have written something on a recordable disc, then you can't save a file on it anymore. Rewriting on a discs can only be done through CD+/-RW or DVD+/-RW type of discs. These rewritable type of discs costs as much as two to five times compared with the write-once or recordable discs. As I have upgraded my operating system from Windows XP into Windows 7, I have discovered several exciting things about it. I first thought that this feature is only designed for RW discs, but I have once experimented it on a write-once disc and it worked! This discovery is among the most important feature of Windows 7 that I am using until now. I've researched on it and found out that this is possible through the Windows 7's UDF file system To do this, you need the following: A blank CD-R, CD+R, DVD-R or a DVD+R An optical bu...
