Depression
What is DEPRESSION?
Well, in our daily life, depression occurs in every single person in this world. There are different types of depression such as human depression, economics, mathematics, etc. Among those depressions that I have mentioned, I will only explain about human depression. Before I move on, let me explain about the word “depression”. The term “depression” or “depressed” refers to both expected and severe levels of sadness, helpless, hopeless, loss pleasure, and other related emotions and behaviors.
As for human depression, everyone have different reasons that cause depression in their life. For example, adults in a development country, they normally get annoyed about losing their jobs or family. When the country is having recession, workers start to worry about losing their jobs. After losing their jobs, 80% of the adults will have depression and in that situation, it will affect the family. As a result, they end up being in a suicide or death case.
As for teenagers; exams, love, family, and other problems will lead them to depression. This is mainly caused by the pressure in them coming from their family and friends. Teenagers usually care more about their love life compared to others and when this happens, their academic achievements decreases. The main consequence is that this disappoints their family and affects their love life. Teenagers will later feel depressed and tries to avoid their problems by suicide. In conclusion, human depression does not only cause sadness to the people but also a difficult way to solve their problems such as suicide.

LAUGHTER
According to OXFORD dictionary, they define laughter as an audible expression, or appearance of merriment or happiness, or an inward feeling of joy and pleasure.
From my point of view, that a person who laughs will always bring happiness and cheerful feeling towards others. There are ways that might work on a person to laugh by telling jokes, tickling, funny face and other stimuli. From the negative point of view, a strong laughter can sometimes bring out tears from a person and even moderate muscular pain from the mouth, throat, stomach and other parts of the body.
Well, laughter is a GREAT EMOTION because when we laugh we will feel good and relief. When we study in primary, secondary, college or maybe from our parents, we heard the saying, “Laughter is the best medicine”. For example, Norman Cousin had overcome his diagnosis with his laugh therapy. From this situation, we know that laugh can improve a person’s healthy. Moreover, laughter can reduce the level of stress and other distraction.

Face Expression
Face expression is one way to give sign and communicate with others. we use it all the time when we are in a meeting or in class or in a conversation.
Example: Im talking to Sean and his cousin. so when his cousin says something i might not agree with like when his cousin says: hey Sean go for a movie and i dont want too.. so i just give sean a look and he will know that i don't agree with that idea.
To be polite we can use this facial expressions but make sure the other person doesnt notice it they might get offended.
THIS IS A ONE FACIAL EXPRESSION
This guy is showing that he is shock. hehe :)
from his face we can already know that he got shock from something.
this is what i mean by expression we can see it om peoples face and know how they are feeling.
not only words but also actions can show how we feel inside!!

SIGNS
we can communicate through signs.
the sign that people do to actually pass signals to other are like moving any part of the body.
example:. Im walking with Reshan and we see a girl. she just beside us. i cant actually say hey damn she so hot.. cause she might hear it, so i just wink at him and give a smile. He will notice then notice her and if he thinks the same he will smile back.
It depends on how well two people kow each other too. the relationship they share. how well do they know each other to actaully understand these signs. Another expample is.
example: Sean and me are in a class room and his pen fell dowm, he didnt notice it.. i call tap his hand and look down he will also look down and see his pen. He will then just pick it up cause he knows that i was telling him his pen fell.
there are many ways to actaully communicate we dont have to always use words to communicate with others.

Arts and science of sign language...
As we all know sign language a way of communicating among people who are having hearing disabilities. It comprises of hand gestures, face expressions, body language and lip patterns. Their spatial grammar are different from normal grammar of spoken languages. Hundreds of sign languages are used around the world and are at the cores of the local Deaf Cultures. Some sign languages have obtained some form of legal recognition, while others have no status at all. In addition to sign languages, various signed codes of spoken languages have been developed, such as signed English and Walpiri Sign Languages. These are not to be confused with languages, oral or signed; a signed code of an oral language is simply a signed mode of the language it carries, just as a writing system is a written mode. Signed codes of oral languages can be useful for learning oral languages or for expressing and discussing literal quotations from those languages, but they are generally too awkward and unwieldy for normal discourse. For example, a teacher and deaf student of English in the United States might use Signed English to cite examples of English usage, but the discussion of those examples would be in American Sign Language.
Uses Of Signs In Hearing Communities
Sign language can be used in various different types of situations, where speech is not permitted or practical for example, in cloistered religious communities, scuba diving, television recording studios and stock exchanges. Sometimes, if the prevalence of deaf people is high enough, a deaf sign language will be taken up by an entire local community.

Characteristics of Interpersonal Relationship
This type of communication involves two people and this occur in our daily life we just gotta TALK!! lolx.. and I personally prefer interpersonal communication than intrapersonal communication.
Well since last tuesday Sean is not here he's in holidays to Thailand.. I noticed that this has affected me and andrew especially.
Firstly, how he affected me and andrew is that we felt like we have lost a BEST FRIEND that we can talk to cause we cant Message him!! both of us could only talk to Sean cause we trust him and for me mostly because Sean is the only person whom i usually go out with.. and since he is on holiday, the situation now is that its quiet without him..and with this i would like to say that through shared activities it help us to developed feelings,appreciation,and mutual liking.This is one of the example of Relational Messages-a statement about how the parties feel towards one another.
Besides that, when we have problems usually both of us will have a metacommunication on the misunderstanding and problems we had.. which sean goes blur everytime~~~ but then it reinforce our relationship and solve our problems which is a GOOD thing~~ ^^
Next, SELF-DISCLOSURE!!
Using the appropriate Self Disclosure guidelines.. You wont go wrong or putting yourself into risk instead it will help the other person understand you better but then still better go through first before you express your feelings to the other person.. consider this question..
1) Is the other person important to you?
2) Is the risk of disclosing reasonable?
3) Are the amount and type of disclosure appropriate?
4) Is the disclosure relevant to the situation at hand?
5) Is the disclosure reciprocated?
6) Will the effect be constructive?
7) Is the Self-disclosure clear and understandable??
Haha~~ Be wise when you want to tell others your dirty little secret.. and this is for you ANDREW!!! hahahahahahaha =P
facial expression
facial expression is also a type of non verbal communication. why do iis it so? these blog shall explain.Expression implies a revelation about the characteristics of a person, a message about something internal to the expresser. In the context of the face and nonverbal communication, expression usually implies a change of a visual pattern over time, but as a static painting can express a mood or capture a sentiment, so too the face can express relatively static characteristics (sometimes called "physiognomy"). The concept of facial expression, thus, includes:
1. a characteristic of a person that is represented
2. a visual configuration that represents this characteristic
3. the physical basis of this appearance, or sign vehicle, e.g., the skin, muscle movements,fat,wrinkles, lines, blemishes, etc
4. typically, some person or other perceiver that perceives and interprets the signs.
Facial expressions are an important channel of nonverbal communication. Many animal species display facial expressions, but expressions are highly developed particularly in the primates, and
perhaps most of all, in humans. Even though the human species has acquired the powerful capabilities of a verbal language, the role of facial expressions in person-to-person interactions remains substantial. Messages of the face that provide commentary and illustration about verbal communications are significant in themselves. Other types of expressions provide another, different mode for understanding the private, hidden side of the inner person, a side which may not be accessible in the form of verbalizations. For example, the facial behaviors related to emotion can reveal part of the feeling side of a person's private life. Such emotion indicators range from stereotyped, full-face expressions that are obvious to fleeting, partial-face movements that are hard to see.

Language
Language~~ One complicated topic i can say but its a fun thing at the same time.. =D
Yesterday while visiting my relatives in my hometown.. one of my cousins gave me a list of tongue twister to read.. and so i did!! and i found out that when one word have two meaning it is very very difficult to read it fast and according to the textbook in the Language chapter it is called the Phonological Rules.. this is a rules on how a word can sound when it is pronounced..
Example :
The present is present during the gift ceremony..
TRY THIS!! say it as FAST AS YOU CAN!!
Can you can a can as a canner can can a can?
How many cookies could a good cook cook If a good cook could cook cookies? A good cook could cook as much cookies as a good cook who could cook cookies
If you can't can any candy can,how many candy cans can a candy canner canif he can can candy cans ?
If Kantie can tie a tie and untie a tie,why can't I tie a tie and untie a tie like Kantie can.
WELL~~ how is it? had fun rite?
Thats all for today and am STILL IN THE CNY mood!!
Happy Chinese New Year to all of You!!
