Admit it, you've had your fair share of these people. They run to you, often add you as a friend, then suddenly ask you: "can i hav som gold and items plz?". What's worse, even if you tell them no, they'll pull you in to a lengthy debate on how you are more well off than he is since he's new and you've been playing far longer than him. His conclusion, you should give him some stuff. I used to tolerate them before, giving them money or some old items but they just keep coming back. Annoying. So these days, I've devised some methods on how to shoo them without engaging into a shouting competition.
1. Have them go to an area where they'll most likely die - Here's how it goes: when somebody asks you for money, say "Sure, lemme just kill some mobs in <insert high level area here>. I'll give you the loot." More often than not they'll agree to this. Bring him along cast some movement speed buffs then try to leave them in the middle of the area. They'll have no choice but to die and respawn. Add him to your block list.
2. Trade with them but cancel it - Try to trade him some nice rare items then cancel it. Ask if he got it, he'll say no of course. Then do it again. After the nth time, say "WTF?! Why isn't it working?!" Then claim it may be a bug. Tell him you'll try again next time and leave him there speechless.
3. Agree but give him some hard work to do - Well, not really. Here's something I did back in iRO (International Ragnarok Online). A beggar comes up to me and asks "can i have some zeni?". I said "Sure, I'll give you 10k, but of course there's some sort of a catch". He asks what it is so I continue with, "Well, just to make it a bit harder for you, I'll give it to you 5z at a time." I was pleasantly surprised he accepted the deal so he went on trading with me. After a few rounds he got tired of it and went on to find his next target.
With last week's post regarding some tips to get started with working out, I've decided to also give you some reminders on how to get the most of your training. Of course, if you want that wonderful beach body that I, myself, wanted when I went on a trip to the Carribean, there are certain things you'll need to avoid when working out.
Skipping warm up - Warming up is the first thing you should do before working out. Skip that and you risk yourself getting injured or lose energy before you finish the program. Warming up helps release adrenaline, improves the movement of oxygen in the blood, and allows joints to move more efficiently. Also, since it increases the temperature of the muscles, it allows for greater elasticity of muscle fibers (which means less chances of developing cramps). Don't do too many warm-up sets, though; too much is also bad for you.
Skipping or not stretching enough - I've mentioned this in my previous post and I will say it again: without stretching first, your muscles are more susceptible to damage from the sudden jump from inactivity to hard activity. After warming up, stretch!
Lifting too much or increasing weight too early - I understand if you feel like you're in a hurry shaping up, I felt the same way when I started going to the gym. Pushing yourself too much by lifting too much weight than you can actually handle could be detrimental to your training program. First, since you'll be lifting more, you'll be using a lot more energy on a particular workout and may not have enough to finish your exercise. Second, you run the risk of getting injured.
Like what I suggested in my previous post, instead of jumping to a heavier weight, increase your sets and repetitions. When you feel the workout is getting easy, then it's time to increase the weight (but not too much).
Improper form - Like any exercise, gym workouts are done in a manner that requires a certain posture and a series of movements. If you want to get good results from your training, you should do the exercises as how they are meant to be done.
Forgetting to drink water - You'll be sweating a lot, that's a fact. So in order to replenish all the water in your body that you've lost while working out, drink a lot of water. Don't wait till you're feeling thirsty, the minute you do is actually the start of dehydration. When dehydrated, blood pressure is decreased and your heart and respiration rates would increase to compensate for it. In turn, the flow of oxygen and other nutrients in the blood would be reduced making them less functional.
Making up for absences - I know some people who try to make up for missing a workout period by doing more, moving it to another day during the week, or spending more hours in the gym during the following period. Here's an advice: don't do any of those. It's like going on a diet - if you ate more than what you were supposed to during one meal, you don't skip another meal to make up for it. The same goes for working out, if you happened to miss a day of working out, simply continue your regular routine and treat the absence as loss.
Improper diet and habits - Let's go outside of the gym for a change. Working out is only one part of the means to your goal (a healthy, beautiful body, of course). Outside of the gym and working out, it is equally important to eat proper meals and avoid habits such as smoking, or sleeping late. Those affect your training results so watch out.
Learn and share the methods of spicing up your sexual
activities. True enough heat creates
fire, and if there is fire, intimacy and passion flares up causing a hot,
steamy lovemaking.
- Less talk, more Kiss
Never
underestimate the power of a kiss; it's where it all started anyway. Some couples just forgot how the intimacy
works; kissing is one way of getting more intimate and passionate. Start with a soft, light kiss on the upper
lip, then feel the tension heats up and there will be groping and kissing all
over the place. Don't talk while you're
kissing. Kiss the lips, going to the
ears and down to the neck - and who knows where else to go down to.
- The art of Undressing
Show
some sneak peak of your body by undressing some parts of your body then let
your partner do it for you. Remember to
take it slow. Undressing fast takes away
all the excitement.
- Filthy Talks
Let's
face it, talking dirty turns us ON. Most
of the guys gets turned on by what they see and most women by what they hear
and feel. Still dirty talks spices up
the process of lovemaking.
- Massage your way to the Big-O
Start
with a simple massage on the hand or the back.
Let your imagination flow, try massaging your partner using your tongue
or any part of your body. Rub your body
against your partner and see what happens!
- Dance together
It
takes two people to do this, even if you are totally aroused but your partner
isn't then all these foreplay isn't going anywhere. Women usually don't like to be just groped
and start doing the thing. What woman
wants is too cuddle and kiss and eventually leads to steamy SEX.
- Always think it's the First time
This
for sure will always give you an experience you never had. Thinking you'll be doing it for the first
time always excites you enough to give you an orgasm.
- Places you've never tried
Try
new locations you haven't had sex before.
Like around the house - kitchen, garage, or even in your front
lawn. Fill up your fantasies; some may
want to try doing it in an elevator, in a car, public place or on the sandy
beach. I once tried jumping naked on the
beach of Bahamas,
and my partner taught it was really sexy and jumped in with me. We had a really HOT sex.
- Try something new
Don't
be afraid to try something new.
Experiment with your partner, if you feel like trying out different
positions or different styles, GO AHEAD!
Make use of food, scents or toys that can make you go oooohhh and aahhh.
- Take it slow
Don't
jump in to a quick sex after a little kiss.
Take your time, breath deeply, say positive stuffs to each other, and
remember to satisfy your partner and not just satisfying yourself.
- Watch and Play
Like what I said earlier, visual stimulation do help a lot mostly in men. There's nothing wrong with watching some erotic movies once in a while. Try the things you see and watch. It will help a lot!
