What Your Glasses Say About Your Personality

Have you ever wondered what message you’re sending when you put on your glasses in the morning? Glasses don’t just alter your physical appearance—they give people hints about your personality as well. The color, material, and shape of your glasses tells everyone you meet just a little bit about you.

Color

Brightly colored glasses are a pretty bold statement. They suggest confidence as well as a willingness to have fun. Yellow glasses are fun and blue glasses are cool. Red glasses are a particularly daring statement because red is a power color. Black can also be a powerful color depending on the style of frame. Black frames can be subtle, but they can also be bold.

Most glasses frames are either plastic or metal. While the rules aren’t hard and fast, plastic frames suggest a fun loving, youthful attitude, while metal frames are seen as more professional and responsible.





Shape

When you choose a pair of glasses, you have a large number of shapes to choose from. Does the style of frames you chose match your personality?

Round Frames

People who wear round frames are often creative and gentle. They are calm under pressure and care about other people. Round frames suggest tranquility and an affinity for the romantic things in life.




Wayfarer Frames

Wayfarer frames have made a huge comeback in recent years.

They have lost their nerdy vibe of years past and become popular with people who are comfortable in their own skin and who don’t care much about what others think.



Big Bold Sunglasses

Big bold sunglasses are suited to big bold personalities. People who choose big bold sunglasses are fashion conscious and courageous. If you are very confident and love to have fun try on a pair of statement making sunglasses.







Rectangle Frames

Rectangle frames are often chosen by those who are quiet and intelligent. Rectangle frames are stylish, but don’t make a strong statement, which makes them perfect for those who aren’t looking to stand out in a crowd. People who wear rectangle frames are content and collected.

Cat-eye Frames

Cat-eye frames used to be associated mostly with cat ladies and shushing librarians, but in modern times they are a courageous and sophisticated statement. They are usually worn by women who know what they want in life and have a plan for getting it.



Rimless Frames
Rimless frames are very subtle, which means they are suited to those who are looking to blend in with those around them. They also suggest the person wearing them is happy with the way they look since they aren’t using their glasses to alter their appearance.  Those who choose rimless frames are often quiet and invested in learning new things.




Aviator Frames

Aviators are classics, and the people who wear them are classic as well. Aviators suit those who value simplicity. People who wear aviators are cool and relaxed but also love a good adventure.






Of course no one is has a personality as simple as a pair of glasses, but what you wear on your face all day every day does give others a glimpse into what you are like on the inside. Whether you are shopping online or at your eye clinic in Edmonton or Edinburgh, choose a pair of glasses that suits your personality.

What Are Promotional Products?


Handing out gifts to your recipients is never a bad idea. Whether it is for promotions, endorsements, or even a simple thank you gift. Such a deed will not go unnoticed and this can definitely help strengthen your bonds and relationship with the community. Such positive attitude is what the general public seeks towards a company and business establishment. They will feel more inclined to directly support your products or service and also encourage others to try it themselves. This spells good success for your business in the long run as it continues to prosper and grow.

Promotional items are readily available and you can buy them at almost any stores today. There are countless of items that can be associated or are used as promo items which make them very accessible to the public. These items are also quite inexpensive which means people can buy them with little to no problem with their budget. Stores often encourage customers to buy promo items in large quantities as this can help them save more, and having a huge supply of promo items are ideal especially if one is distributing such items on a regular basis.


What makes promotional items stand out above the rest of the crowd are their customizations. You can choose to give them to your recipients right away after purchase. Although, customizations are often compared with already made promo items and this can produce unexpected results. Others may love it but and some may dislike their similar features with normal everyday items. You can give these promo items a lasting impression when you choose to customize them by changing their color, shape and overall design. Custom prints can also be added to promote brand recognition. You can add your company logo, a brand name, or even a slogan to give them that diverse look and feel. Bags and shirts may come to mind when thinking about item customizations.


However, flash drives or custom USB drives can also take advantage of such modifications since they are used almost every day with different file retrieval, transfer, and storage. Their small size makes them easy to carry around at any given time and they are also sold at a very low price.

Meeting Your Half-Orange: A Review


Why can’t I get that cute guy to notice me?

Why do I always pick losers?

Do guys only go for a certain type of girl?

Any of these thoughts sound familiar? Have you ever been discouraged about the overwhelming, confusing, sometimes downright daunting task of dating? Well, Amy Spencer knows exactly how you feel. In her book Meeting Your Half-Orange, the former editor for Glamour magazine teaches readers how to turn their dating doubts and worries into positive energy that will help them attract their “better half.”

If you think this sounds a little hokey, don’t worry—I did too. But after reading Amy’s guide, I truly believe that finding your half-orange is possible. And applying her techniques will make anyone a more positive, attractive, upbeat version of themselves.

Half-orange? What in the world is that?

Your half-orange, Amy explains, is your other half, your “ideal partner, the person you’re meant to share your life with.” Amy learned this Argentinian phrase from her own half-orange, whom she met within a few months of applying the methods she suggests.

I know, some of you are thinking, “Hold on, I’m not ready to think about meeting my other half right now. I just want to have fun.” That’s ok! The techniques that Amy teaches in her book will help anyone be more confident, happy, and optimistic, no matter what stage of your dating life you’re in. And while this book focuses on attracting your soul mate, remember that it will affect your other relationships in a positive way, too.

The phases

So how exactly do you attract your half-orange?

1.      The first phase, Amy says, is to believe that you can have it. You are fun enough, smart enough, and cool enough to have an amazing relationship. So what if you haven’t found “The One” yet? So what if all of your dates end with you going home and eating a pint of ice cream while watching Pride and Prejudice and wondering if your Mr. Darcy will ever show up? He will! You just have to believe that it’s possible.

You’ve done it in other areas of your life, right? You’ve focused on the job you wanted to get, the test you wanted to ace, the team you wanted to be on, and you succeeded! Focus on what you want and you will find it.

2.      Phase two of being utterly optimistic, Amy says, is to admit that you want it. Admit it. You want to fall in love some day with an incredibly handsome, fun, witty, successful guy who just happens to think you’re the best thing since sliced bread. Sure, being single can have its perks, but some day you will be ready for the next step. And when that day comes, say it. Tell yourself you’re ready. Tell your mom. Tell your friends. Shoot, I even told my cat. Just get it out there so the universe knows you’re ready.

3.      Phase three: choose your orange seed. C’mon girls, admit it…you have a list. You know, the list: tall, dark-haired, blue eyes, amazing athlete, etc. Well, our dating guru says to throw it out. Yep. You are starting over. Because, Amy states, “The fact is, you don’t want a man . . . what you want is a relationship.” When you start looking at outside factors (looks, hobbies, popularity, etc.) you get sidetracked from how the relationship makes you feel. To help you maintain the right focus, Amy suggests looking at other relationships that you admire and making a list of similar things you want in your dream relationship.

4.      Phase four of finding your half-orange is all about focusing on that dream relationship and imagining it. This phase is full of tips on how to smile more and visualize that perfect love. I don’t think I could do this chapter justice in a brief summary, so I’ll leave you to read it yourself. The last thing Amy suggests, however, is making a Dream Board to “create a visual reminder of emotional cues about what you want.” Cut out and paste pictures that show the kind of relationship you want––a couple holding hands, words like “healthy” or “loving” to zone in on the type of relationship you really want.

Now what?

So you finally believe you can have that ultra-happy, over-the-moon love. You have admitted to the world that you want it, and you have imagined the type of relationship you want—now what? Live life, and love it! You can’t just wait around for Mr. Right to show up at your doorstep! Do what you love, whether that’s traveling, fishing, or cleaning grease traps in Hamilton. You’ve got to fill your life with all of the wonderful, positive things that make you you.

Don’t wait around for a guy to complete you. Do all the things you love and let him come to you. Now that you are a dating optimist, you don’t have to worry whether he will show up—you know he will! Live your life to the fullest each day and he will appear.

Meeting Your Half-Orange is full of stories that illustrate these principles, as well as research from psychologists that shows how positive thinking actually brings good things into our lives. And often, Amy says, those who have applied these principles have ended up doing new things and discovering new talents. So go pick up Meeting Your Half-Orange and start your journey to a more hopeful, happy you.

Time Management Tips for College Students


Time management is probably one of the factors that distinguishes successful students from those that not so successful. All of us have the same 24 hours a day. There are some that always complain about there being no time and the heavy work that needs to be completed within that time. At the same time there are some among us that manage to complete their work on time and even find time to relax and have fun. The key lies in finding out the difference between how these two groups manage their time. In all possibility you will find that those who are more successful know how to manage their time efficiently. College students especially need to know how to manage their time because once the habit is formed; it will help them not only in their academic years but will also be helpful in their career and life in general.

The first thing that needs to be done is to form an inventory of the time that is available. People often wake up at different times and go to sleep at different times. It is obviously the time in between that can be used to perform tasks. Once this inventory is identified it becomes easy to plan the work accordingly. Students must start to use calendars. This can be used to schedule your activities according to the time and day of the week. Deadlines can be marked and a daily glance at the calendar will enable you to know where you stand with regards to progress in tasks. The calendar can be used to list the exact due dates for projects, assignments, research papers and tasks in general. Miscellaneous side jobs that some students take up to support themselves during the course of their education must also be included in this calendar. Time for relaxation must also ne included because too much work can stress you out.

You should also be able to allocate a particular time span for every subject. You must not go overboard and give more importance to a particular subject. If you have any problem with a particular subject make sure you get help from your tutors or friends. You could use an alarm clock so that when it rings you can go to another subject. Make sure that your study area is free of distractions. Switch off your mobile phones and let your family and friends know beforehand that it is your study time. One of the things that disrupt your time management is the propensity to procrastinate. If you do so then you will lose control of your time. You will have to write assignments in a hurry and in all probability your assignments will not be of a good quality. So plan your work and stick to the schedule. Finally, and most importantly do not ignore your health. Studying well should not affect your health. Eat healthy and get enough sleep. Following these steps will ensure that you will have enough time for education as well as recreation.

Something Beautiful Come February 14th

We’re all used to receiving mysterious cards, boxes of chocolates, bunches of flowers and even cute teddy bears on Valentine’s Day but as with every occasion, it’s always nicer to receive something a bit unique. You don’t have to be planning a proposal to push the boat out and treat your special someone to a February 14th to remember. Dedicated to finding the perfect gift for her, we've put together some great gift ideas for the special lady in your life this Valentine’s Day.

Underwear is always a cheeky but smile-inducing gift and there are some beautiful sets around at the moment. Most of them come in pretty packaging meaning you don’t even have to worry too much about presentation. Think rich reds, sultry blacks and frothy pinks in lace or silk. Our favorites include:

(l-r: Cochinella Red Satin Set, Black Maria Set, Marie Lloyd Set all by Buttress and Snatch)

Not in the business of buying something so risqué? Treat your favourite person to one of these loved-up pieces:

(l-r, top row: Charmed Heart Pendant by Ella Georgia, Heart Tea Light Holders by CHH Design, Spa Pamper Gift Box by Gift Box Galore. L-r, bottom row: Enamel Love Mug by Tigerlilly Quinn, Fairy Tale Cushion by Heather Alstead Design, Language of Love Print by Coulson Macleod)

Of course, Valentine’s Day isn't all about couples. It’s about celebrating love in general and therefore, it can be used as another excuse to show someone how much they’re appreciated in your life. You may argue that you do this every day of the year and that love shouldn't have one day in 365 dedicated to it but doesn't it make it a bit more special if it’s not a daily occurrence? We all know that we don’t always show how much we love our nearest and dearest, so this is the perfect opportunity to make a conscious effort to brighten up someone’s day.

Why be a bitter singleton when you can have a much-needed catch-up dinner with your single friends? If you feel like burning your exes stuff in a party afterwards then so be it but make sure you feel and acknowledge all the love that you’re lucky enough to have!

Another year is upon us and it's time to start thinking about New Year's resolutions. The thing about resolutions, is that some people keep to them and the rest don't. I want you think about 2013 and list down the resolutions you stuck with to the end. Is that number staggering or is it invisible?
