lloydbelleza As long as we're honest to what we are saying, I think we will have no regrets after whatever the outcome maybe. I really am scared of interview. I feel like choking every time. And I feel like I forget my English whenever I'm too nervous. Or at times I...

lloydbelleza It really also depends on the people interviewing you. Some are just too serious that you can have a breath of fun. I'm glad you had that fun time with your interview.

lloydbelleza So there's an interviewer in the house. Nice to meet you! That's also a good way for finding out if the applicant is fitting for the position. If I were an interviewer, I'd like to ask this question. Because I want to know the personality of the...

lloydbelleza Yes, I hope I had read this article before. I have been to different interviews not only for job application but for other things. And in the few interviews I had, this question was asked. I was more into the personal weakness which I believed made me not pass...

We say that spontaneous is exciting but most of the time, if not always, we should be conscious on the things that come out from our mouth. The choice of words we use to speak for what we feel, what we think is a very significant...

lloydbelleza But we must also be aware not to make everything we say too staged and scripted. We don't want to be Mr./Ms. Too perfect that we lose the essence of being fun and spontaneous. But yes, there really are significant cases that we need to be very careful of the...

lloydbelleza I don't condone what you did because that was really too harsh for a punishment. But I guess some people need some dose of their own medicine so they would really learn.

lloydbelleza Faith without doing anything could be very fatal. Do your best and God will do the rest. I believe in that saying. God wants us to work for our dreams and have faith in Him that He will bless and make it fruitful.

lloydbelleza Dream without action is dead indeed. If it only remains in our head, it will never come true. Unless we do something to make it happen.

lloydbelleza Sometimes getting that first kick is the most difficult part. There is fear. There is laziness. And so many other excuses we make for not making that first step. Talents will really be put to waste if we are too lazy to use them. Dreaming is good but if you...

lloydbelleza Yeah. It seems like our dream is too big for us to get up. We become so overwhelmed with the hugeness of our dream that we forget to rise and work for it. Thoughts will remains as thoughts unless put to actions, and so do with dreams. We have to work for it...

lloydbelleza The best way to make your dream come true is to start working for it today. There are short-term goals, and there are long-term ones. So when you dream of something, set a time frame. For example, I want to travel to Japan, and you're giving yourself two years...

lloydbelleza In reality, taking the first step is the hardest part. But if you just take that first step, you are ready to go and chase your dreams. There are times that we can just lie around and daydream. And after that, get up, do something to fulfill those dreams....

They say when you are truly in love, you would do anything for that person. People say they would catch the stars, move mountains, dive the deepest ocean, doing the impossible to express how much they love the person. When...

lloydbelleza But we shouldn't really try to hard as stated up there. We must surrender it to God so we won't feel like we are obligated, that the whole relationship we have with Jesus is just out of obligation. He wants a real relationship with us. When we love, we just do...

lloydbelleza I am interested with the idea of time travel but I am not sure if I am ever going to try it, saying that it could be really done. I want my life to be the way it should be--moving forward. I don't want to travel and get to see my past or future life. I am not...

lloydbelleza Actually, we often use mostly of those words at work here in Japan. Especially the "I think", "I may be wrong,", and all the unsure stuff. As you said you don't want to hurt other people's feelings. Here, it is purposefully done to make things more friendly,...

lloydbelleza I think it was a sign of support and sympathy to the person. But still it looks odd to me. Anyway, as long as the intention is not to make fun of the feelings of the person, liking a depressing status is something I could swallow... But if possible, leave...
