Myself :D @WanLingLiew www.elaineliew-greekmyth.blogspot.com

Hi,my name is Wan-Ling, and this year I'm 42 years of age. I live with my parents and a brother.My elder brother and his family are living in Australia and all his children are Australians.My own sister is married and living with a daughter in South Africa.She is working there too and she supports her own daughter. I am married to Y.T.Tan and I have two sons, Kenneth and Edward. They are schooling at a private Chinese School in Selangor. I have been married for 13 years. My mother-in-law is in charge of my husband's household and her grandchildren. Currently, I am living the American Dream and I am living the Aussie's way of life. My past time is surfing the net and reading.

I love to exercise everyday. In fact my parents are always exercising daily to stay alive and keeping up with the world. My brother is studying for his doctorate. I am helping my mother with the daily chores of everyday life. I am staying here for good because my children has grown up and they respected their own privacy. My partner's house is very small and cramped. My mother-in-law keeps the house clean and tidy and she also cooks for her son and her grandchildren. I am not living with her and my partner. It is better this way as we both demanded our freedom as well as our children's. So far we haven't spoken but we haven't quarrel at all.

I listened to the radio and my mom listens to her hi-fi downstairs. She listens to 98.8FM a chinese channel. I don't disturb my brother's privacy and he goes to his games playing Badminton at the court. I don't go to the gym to work out. I work out at home in the privacy of my own bedroom. I do push-ups, crunches and the cobra. I am keeping a low profile as I am not a publicity person. I'm down-to-earth and likes to spend time with my computer and my radio transistors and enjoying a walk at the park. I also go to the temple to pray.

So far my life has been serene. Just recently , I went down with flu and I went to 1 MALAYSIA to get my medicine and consult the doctor. I was treated very nicely and the queue wasn 't too long. There was a TV set provided and the medicine was good. I was healed on the third day of taking his medication..It was a stomach flu with fever and phlegm followed by coughing. The cough mixture was very tasty and after I finished the bottle, my cough slowly disappears. I thank God for 1 MALAYSIA.( a governmental clinic ):D

Motivation Camp 2009, hitch-hiking, went to visit the museum in our shorts and T's. Rather unapparel really but our coach said it was Okay. We were camping out and in the evening wandered out into the museum. All five of us were team-mates. We were hysterical and we were all girls....

Taylor Lynn : Are ya sure sis????

Gwen Soon : I can sing like Gwen Stefani out here in the night.....only thing is, I'll be heard. Hey, are ya sure there are any GHOST around????'Cause I would sure like to meet one!

Prudence : Don't be silly, there aren't such a thing as GHOST???? hey, Have ya seen the latest GHOSTBUSTER movie lately?

Lilac Yong : Are you all a bunch of silly scroundrels? Follow the lead, look, Taylor Lynn is way in front looking at those dead Mannequins - shouldn't we take one home and sleep with em...huh?

Taylor (Me) : Don't who who me..... I'd like to dress em UP, that's all! C'mon follow me, I've found the dead animals.......

Monica Liao : Taylor, can't you stay beside me?
Taylor (Me) : Why?
Monica Liao : I brush against the hair of a hamster and its fur makes me scary and I'm now full of jitters....
Taylor (Me) : Alright, I stay by your side at all times.... I'm a staunch Buddhist, and I don't believe in Ghosts....

Gwen at me: Lynn, didn't you become a witch yourself????
Taylor (Me) : Hell no, I just like to hang around with em.. that's all..
Prudence Foong : Do you know of any spells to ward OFF Ghosts????
Lilac Yong said : Prudence, remember the last time you asked me to bring a talisman to protect against harm ?

Taylor (Me) : Yeahhh, I have one here, it's said by the witches to protect the holder against evil.

Monica : Don't give me that Crab!!!!

All five of us finished our rounds at the Musuem and went back to our campsite. We all went home the next day.....safe and sound.

Moira, Banning, Hilda and Me (Taylor Lynn).

Moira is 42 years old, married and divorced. Banning is a spinster, aged 42 and Hilda is also married and divorced two times, had three children of two different fathers and I am married and have two sons with a biological father. I am currently unattached and single. I did not renewed my marriage vows but I did not sign the divorce papers. Legally I'm married. But I'm living alone with my biological parents and I am independent.

My sons are living with their father and Nanny Mcphee. I am doing research on my own and working as an Outreach Officer at Phileo. I am self-employed by my current big boss and I enjoyed my job and work very much. I helped my Mom everyday and my duties are fulfilled on time....

Moira is very against men nowadays. Banning is not interested in men at all and Hilda has a whole lot of make-up supply to fulfill her dreams.... All four of us love to eat and hang out at shopping malls a lot.
We are good students in our time. We are all women and we are adults. We take care of each other and we count on each other as friends. We are good friends. We believe in fate and destiny. We are all career-driven and currently all of us failed in our relationships....

My TRIP to CHINA with my Hamilton Friends.

My three friends, Moira,Banning and Hilda, and I (Taylor Lynn)~photographer, went to China last year. We went by British Airways, because Moira got four tickets on her air-line yearly trip and she invited me to join her in her tour of China. Moira works for British Airways and she is an attendant at the airport. Moira is the one in blue and she stand tallest. Hilda is the most beautiful one on the right hand side of the picture and I am the photographer. Banning has been working for British Airways for the past twenty years.....She is an airport attendant and receptionist at the counter.

I used to fly British Airways on my EuroTrip with my family in the year 1993 (aged 24). I am now retired and at the age 42. I love all my Hamilton friends and we got along very well, in fact extremely well.

THANKS TO BRITISH AIRWAYS! our trip was fabulous but I gave all my photos away to my friends and I didn't keep the negatives as I also them all up to Moira.This is the only photo that I've got in rememberance of my friends and I and I treasure them. We arrived back home safely. Our trip was fun and exciting and we spent all our money on the trip but replenished them back safely during our working days.....

The TOP 7 SLEEP KILLERS - And How To Solve Them.

All you want to do is close your eyes until morning, but instead you're stuck in bed wide awake, watching the minutes tick by. It's three in the morning, and once again, you're staring at the ceiling as your mind races. Not being able to nod off when you want to is agonizing. And you're not the only one with the problem. Two-thirds of women report trouble sleeping several nights each week. So what's keeping you up? READ ON for the factors, habits and behaviors that have been killing your sleep, then the simple FIXES.

SLEEP KILLER 1 : LIGHT SEEPING INTO YOUR ROOM.
Even slivers of light - the kind that sneaks in through a crack in your blinds or the blueish glow of a computer monitor LEFT ON - can keep you awake. "Light signals your brain to stop producing melatonin, the HORMONES that regulates your sleep and wake cycles," says Shelby Freedman Harris, PhD, clinical psychologist at the Sleep - Wake Disorders Center at New York City.

The Solution : Get black-out SHADES, chuck your digital clock for one without an LCD display, shut off your COMPUTER before turning in - whatever it takes to make your room PITCH-BLACK, suggests clinical psychologist, Michael Breus, PhD, author of Beauty Sleep. If light still gets in, consider wearing an eye mask to bed.

SLEEP KILLER 2 : An Erratic Meal Schedule.
Not having a set time for breakfast, lunch, and dinner everyday makes it tough for your body to know when to send out sleepliners signals. "That's because your internal body clock, which tells your system when to sleep and when to wake, relies on cues from the environment, like mealtimes," explains Breus. If these cues vary greatly from day to day - say one night you have dinner at 8, then the next at 10, and then on the third day at 6 - your system has trouble keeping track of time and knowing when to start winding down, he adds.

The Solution : Stick to a routine meal schedule each day, even on weekends as much as you can. B vitamins help regulate sleep patterns, so eat foods rich in these nutrients ( like whole-grain cereals, nuts, broccoli and potatoes ).

SLEEP KILLER 3 : Your Evening Second Wind.

It's a common scenario : After feeling draggy all day, you're suddenly struck with a burst of energy at night. Of course, it's hard to resist taking advantage of this jolt, so you decide to organize your closet or pop in a workout DVD, for example. Then when it's time for you to turn in, you're too WIRED to DOZE OFF.

Here's what's probably triggering it: What feels like a SURGE in ENERGY could really be a rush of anxiety prompted by increased production of the HORMONES CORTISOL and ADRENALINE, which your system pumps out when you're sleep-deprived, says Breus. Using this hormone rush to further stay awake makes you feel WIRED at first, then ultimately, even more fatigued, he adds.

The solution : Try hard not to give in to that HORMONE FUELED ANXIETY SURGE, or use it to do something relaxing, like reading a good book that doesn't cause you to put off going to bed at a decent hour.

SLEEP KILLER 4 : Your Beauty Routine.
Beware of what you put on your face and in your body before turning out the lights. Certain SCENTS, HERBS, and SPICES encourage your brain to wake up not shut off. One example: PEPPERMINT, Scrubbing your face with a peppermint skin wash or brushing your teeth with a PEPPERMINT TOOTHPASTE can keep you awake, says Harris. Eucalyptus and Rosemary-scented products also amp up your alertness.

The solution : Save the energizing scents for the morning, when you need that extra help to get going. In the p.m., "use a mild toothpaste, and LAVENDER SCENTED face wash or body lotion, since LAVENDER has been shown to cue your body to slow down.

SLEEP KILLER 5 : Your menstrual cycle.
Ever notice that sleeplessness seem to strike just before your period?????Blame it on a natural dip in the HORMONE PROGESTERONE - which helps you sleep soundly - during your preperiod week, explains Kathryn A.Lee, PhD, a nurse researcher who specializes in sleep disorders at the university.

The Solution : Anticipate a monthly inability to snooze so you won't let it get you frustrated and irritated, and use the time to tackle projects you otherwise have no time for.

SLEEP KILLER 6 : Drinking LATE AT NIGHT.
Alcohol is a depressant, and a drink before bed can relax you enough to fall asleep easily. Unfortunately the sleepiness probably won't last. "Alcohol is metabolized quickly, and once it's out of your system, your body experiences withdrawal symptoms that can interrupt your sleep,"says clinical psychologist Anne Bartolucci, PhD. President of Atlanta Insomnia and Behavioral Health Services.

The Solution : Plan for last call to be about four hours before you think you'll be going to bed so your body has time to metabolize the alcohol completely and the resulting withdrawal symptoms won't disturb you.

SLEEP KILLER 7 : Your Expectations.
Though eight hours is the average amount of sleep most adults need per night, lots of people need even more, while others can function perfectly well on six, five, or even four hours. "But if you sleep for longer than your body requires, you'll have trouble falling asleep or keep waking too early in the morning," says Bartolucci.

The solution : Figure out how much sleep you truly need by hitting the hay and waking up sans an alarm for a week. If, toward the seventh day, you find yourself waking after seven hours, then that's probably your number (AGE).
