Miami Activities and Programming (MAP) partners with the Performing Arts Series to bring entertainers to campus every year, particularly for Family Weekend in October and the annual spring concert. However, for the last two years, a large spring concert has not been scheduled.
The Arts, Culture and Entertainment (ACE) board, one of four student boards comprising Miami Activities and Programming (MAP), is in charge of bringing in artists for Miami students.
When trying to choose which artist should perform, the board considers artists students want as well as artists who approach the university on their own, said MAP President junior Maddy Haigh.
The Performing Arts Series helps MAP find talent, determine what is in the budget, negotiate prices and market the show. Director of the Performing Arts Series Patti Liberatore, who helps MAP find and secure entertainment, attributes the lack of spring concerts the past two years to various conflicts.
"The fact that we don't have a concert planned for this spring is just the result of a variety of circumstances, rather than anyone making a decision to not have shows in the spring," Liberatore said. "Not having a concert this year was an anomaly."
Haigh said many factors come into play that could cause conflicts when trying to book artists. These include technical issues, space availability, pricing and dates, among other problems.
"There are your factors on the Miami side, and then there are the artists' factors," Haigh said.
Miami can only offer to host an artist when a space, usually Millett, is available to hold the concert, which limits the number of possible dates. Then, one of these dates has to line up with a performer's schedule.
The last major spring concert MAP held was The Fray in 2012. In years prior, as many as four major entertainers visited Miami during just one school year.
In 2002-03 alone, the campus saw shows from the Counting Crows, John Mayer, Dave Matthews and Tim Reynolds, and comedian Bill Cosby.
Since that year, however, there has been a decrease in the number of performers MAP has brought to campus, with some school years only seeing a single comedian and no musicians, such as with Jay Leno in 2008 or Jim Gaffigan in 2013.
For Family Weekend, Haigh said MAP is starting to focus on bringing in comedians instead of musicians, as they have previously done. Comedians seem to appeal better to both age groups and are something the family is more likely to attend together. They plan to continue this trend in the future. Haigh said following this year, MAP hopes to bring in a greater number of smaller artists throughout the year as opposed to only one large act in the spring. This will give them more flexibility with scheduling and leave funds to plan more performances throughout the year, as well as lower ticket prices for students to purchase, resulting in greater interest and attendance.
Sophomore Bijan Sharifi said that he would be more likely to attend concerts on campus if ticket prices were lowered.
MAP currently receives all of its funding from ASG through a pre-approved budget, with about $20,000 typically allocated for one of these events. The costs to bring in the artist vary widely based on the performers, and the ticket prices are then based on the costs to assure the concert pays for itself. The tickets can run up to $40 for one big name musician or comedian.
MAP and the Performing Arts Series are looking into a concert for next spring, although nothing has been set in stone. Family Weekend is their first priority, which is also currently in the planning stages, according to Liberatore.
"We always hope for concerts, but we try to be creative about it," Haigh said.

My husband and I went on a holiday during Christmas time. Our chosen destination is Seoul, Korea (More picture about this trip will be up soon, stay tune.). Travelling souvenirs is what I always get headache of and would like to ask my friends what is the famous souvenirs of my travelling location before I go on a trip. To save up your asking time, I guess it will be useful to share mine to you.
Socks: Socks in Dongdamun (Korea) is super cheap. It is around HKD7/pair and have thousand kinds of beautiful print for you to stop by and choose for.
Glove: Haven't I told you it is currently -16C in Seoul right now. They sells all the protective gears everywhere and I buy this cutie little glove suits well for my niece. If it is warm for -16C, it definitely enough for the cold weather (6C the coldest) in Hong Kong.
Eyes Mask: Modern people love watching all kinds of electronic devices (computer, phone, TV), a cold and hot eye mask is definitely needed for them. I just buy it in a drug store. It has both cold and hot therapy to let your eyes relax and removing the dark eyes circle (well suit for girl).
Facial Mask: I think it is common sense for Hong Kong people to buy masks in Korea as it is so much cheaper (around HKD6/ piece) in Korea than buying in Hong Kong (I mean the same product). The most popular band you have to buy in Korea is Missa, Skinfood, Etude. My friend also introduce a skincare product shop called Holika Holika (Korea brand) to me. She said that pig nose clear product is very powerful in removing all the dirt on your nose. I will try it out and let you know if there is any good.
Jinseng product: Jinseng is one of the famous product in Korea. I would highly recommend you to go to Lotte Supermarket (at Mingdung) to buy Jinseng. They even cost you only HKD10. I have buy this Jinseng soup pack which I can just place it into a boiling water and put a little chicken inside to create chicken soup. I have also bought Jinseng tea as one of my souvenirs to my older friends. This Queen Jinseng tea is especially for woman. There are many other products which is easily good to build up a healthier body.
I hope this give you some idea on what to buy as a souvenirs in Korea. I will upload a clothing haul and what to do in Korea later on.
I hope you have a Happy New Year!

A Royal Hawaiian Family Vacation
Every summer we live by one simple rule: enjoy the Seattle sun while it lasts. Most Seattleites know never to travel in the summer... you stay and enjoy the precious two months summer affords us and save your travels for the other ten gloomy months of the year, which is precisely what we do. In early June, when the rain is usually falling heavy, we escaped to paradise and were surrounded in bliss at the Royal Hawaiian for a week. We made no plans, didn't search out any tourists activities. Our intention was to sit under a cabana from late morning to evening while Totes played on the beach and we indulged in the hotel's cabana and pool service. The only thing that foiled our plans was Totes surprising reaction to the beach... he hated it. Wanted nothing to do with the sand between his toes or walking on the uneven ground. The rushing waves, although mild compared to most areas, were another no-no. But that didn't stop us from taking a daily family dip in the ocean! Kids are so unpredictable.
(continued below...)
Luckily the pool at the Royal Hawaiian was heated to a comfortable, what felt like, 90 degrees and was a piece of heaven in itself. It took a few days, but Totes finally warmed up to the beach and we had some very fun strolls walking along Waikiki beach.
On Totes: Hat and Tank by H&M, Denim Shorts by Zara Baby Boy
We brought along our BOB Revolution Stroller knowing that nap time would probably happen most of the time here. Although I would generally take my Orbit Stroller with me 99% of the time, it was nice to have a one-piece system with a super smooth ride and the basket underneath for toting all our beach gear. We put Totes and the stroller around nap time and once he was asleep, we'd find a place for lunch.
One of the first few days we were at the hotel, we walked into the gift shop and Totes went crazy over this large stuffed bear. He has the same bear at home, just half the size. It's the Philbin bear by GUND that we used in my baby shower and he's been crazy about it since he was just a baby. So we bought it and he carried it around everywhere for the first few days. It's nice to have a comforting item when traveling away from home. Good to remember next time we go away.
When we first arrived at the Royal Hawaiian and walked into our room, Totes had a strange reaction. I had to pull him inside... he was shaking his head and saying "no, no no..." This particular room has a bit small and very dark. I can imagine after he had just been running around the grounds in all the light and space he was super hesitant to be so closed in. My husband popped down to the front desk to ask about an upgrade to the new tower and after a few minutes, I got a call telling me to bring the bags over. The new room we upgraded to had an ocean view with sliding glass door out onto the lanai. He was so happy, I couldn't keep that little monkey from jumping on the bed!
We chose Waikiki because of the action. We knew our social little guy would have a great time with all the people and life around him, and we were right. The Royal Hawaiian is probably the best location for this too. Our stay here also gave us access to the Sheraton pool next door, which was a big playground for kids. Unfortunately the water, not heated, was a little too cold for us and our skinny kid. It looked like a blast for older kids though. We walked along the beach and swam in the ocean every day, it couldn't have been a better time.
On our second to last day in Hawaii, we booked a little excursion aboard a real pirate ship! The pirate crew was super lively and even reenacted a little battle just off the coast of our hotel on Waikiki beach. Totes slept through it all. He was a little too young to participate but the other kids on board had a blast. Was be a fun activity for kids in the 4-6 age range.
We'll miss this view. Until next time!

The Simon Wiesenthal Center, a leading Jewish Human Rights NGO denounced the announcements this week by Brazil, Argentina and Uruguay that they will recognize Palestine as an independent state within the pre-1967 borders.
"Beyond the fact that such pronouncements further hamper U.S.-led efforts to reach a peaceful two state solution via direct negotiations, the endorsement of a return of Israel to its indefensible 1967 'Auschwitz borders' is inexcusable and immoral," charged Rabbis Marvin Hier and Abraham Cooper, the Center's dean and founder and associate dean respectively, referring to Israeli statesman Abba Eban's 1969 statement that the pre-'67 borders would bring back "memories of Auschwitz" to many Israelis. "No Israeli leader would ever agree to return to a border only seven miles wide in the center of the Holy Land, nor would they agree to re-divide Jerusalem, the eternal capital of the Jewish people," they added.
"If the world's political leaders want to contribute to the peace process, they should be calling for the dismantling of the terrorist Hamas mini-state in Gaza and the removal of 40,000 Iran-supplied Hezbollah rockets threatening Israel's northern border," the Rabbis concluded.

Brooke Pearson, whose family is from Coweta County, has earned the Girl Scout Gold Award.
Girl Scouts of Greater Atlanta recognizes Brooke Pearson for earning her Gold Award which is the highest award that a Girl Scout Senior or Ambassador can earn. Her Gold Award project was recognized as a 2018 Girl Scouts of Greater Atlanta – Council Young Woman of Distinction.
Less than 5 percent of the eligible Girl Scouts earn their Gold Award. Pearson won her Bronze, highest award for a Junior Girl Scouts in grades 4-5; and Silver award, highest award for Cadette Girl Scouts in grades 6-8, as well.
Pearson's Bronze award was toiletry collections for United Way Shoebox for Women and Children Shelters She collected items, decorated shoe boxes, sorted the shoe boxes at the warehouse and prepared the boxes for distribution to the shelters.
Her Silver award was a health field day for preschoolers in which they learned the importance of being active, choosing healthy food items and enjoying a field day. For Pearson's Gold award she spent more than 160 hours in the planning and implementing of the project.
Her project, Teen Dating Violence, made an impact in the community. The Council Young Women of Distinction is an awards program honoring Girl Scouts who achieve excellence in community leadership by living out the Girl Scout Promise and Law as they take action to make the world a better place.
"Girls have the power to effect real change, and each year, we see Girl Scouts across the country do that by taking measurable actions that improve our world," said GSUSA CEO Sylvia Acevedo.
Pearson's Gold Award project consists of two components – community and her high school. The school project was at Cross Keys in DeKalb County
The community aspect involved working with Partnership Against Domestic Violence in hosting multiple workshops for teens to discuss appropriate dating behaviors. During the workshop, the attendees also learn self defense techniques from a martial arts instructor.
The high school aspect of the project involved allowing the student body to have an "orange out" day during Love Is Respect week in which they do not have to wear the school's uniform. Members of Students Against Destructive Decisions conducted a social experiment in which members were made up with beaten faces, wore signs containing teen dating statistics and did not speak the entire day so that the school body has a visual of dating violence.
Pearson also collected 125 items for PADV's women and children shelters. In addition, she is an inaugural member of PADV's Teen Advisory Board where she has been a panelist for the annual Teen Summit for PADV as well as a facilitator for adult and teen workshops.
The Gold Award Scout is the daughter of Danny and Angela Pearson of Atlanta. Her grandmother, Lucy Parks, is a native of Grantville and has moved back to her hometown.
Angela Pearson, who is a Girl Scout leader, remembers summer vacations in Grantville with her grandparents, Willie Mae and Charlie Wortham.

One of the best ways to be prepared for any interview is to know what questions are going to be asked, and how you can answer them. While you can't exactly predict every question in an interview, it's almost certain that at least one or two of the following common interview questions will appear in your interview:
1. Why are you interested in working for us?
2. What made you apply for this position?
3. How did you find out about this position?
4. Why are you looking for a new job?
5. What are your strengths?
6. What are your weaknesses?
7. Describe yourself.
8. What achievement are you most proud of?
9. Tell me about a time when you went above and beyond what was necessary as part of your job.
10. Tell me about a time when you've had to handle a difficult situation.
11. Describe a time when you've made a mistake.
12. Why should we hire you?
13. What can you offer us that another candidate can't?
14. Where do you see yourself in five (or ten) years?
15. Tell us what you know about the company.
16. What are your career goals?
17. What would your dream job be?
18. What motivates you?
19. Are you a leader or are you a follower?
20. Are you willing to travel or relocate?
21. What would your former boss like you to improve on?
22. Tell me something that makes you uncomfortable.
23. What are your hobbies?
24. What questions have I missed?
25. What questions would you like to ask us?
Here, we're going to discuss how to answer these in a way that will help you increase your chances of getting your dream role.
Why are you interested in working for us? – Common Interview Questions
In this question, you should show admiration for the company's values or success. Don't go overboard, but show appreciation. Then, link this to personal ambition and a desire for challenge, as though it makes perfect sense for you to be there.
Example: From reading your website I found that you had an incredibly successful year. I feel that the high standards of your company would be a great fit for myself because I'm looking for a new challenge.
What made you apply for this position? – Common Interview Questions
This is similar to the previous question, but focuses a bit more on the role rather than the company. Speak about what you like about the role, and why it's a great challenge for you. You should also try to express a passion for the main task you'd be doing – the interviewers would prefer a candidate who enjoys the job over someone who loathes it.
Example: I applied for this role because I think it would fulfil my desire for challenge. I also particularly enjoy doing the main tasks that would be set for me to complete, so I believe that this role would be a perfect fit for me.
How did you find out about this position? – Common Interview Questions
This question is usually fairly straightforward, as it's simply asking where you found the position. If you were referred by an existing employee, then there might be benefits for that individual. This is why companies sometimes ask that question.
They also like to know where their advertising methods were most effective. If you found their job listing on a specific website, they'd like to know because then they can use that one more often in the future.
Why are you looking for a new job? – Common Interview Questions
You need to answer this question carefully, since the reason you give for leaving your current job might indicate a significant character flaw in yourself. So, don't say that you left because you fell out with members of your team or your manager – that will not look good at all to the interviewer. Rather than making your exit from this previous job negative, try to give it a positive spin. For example, you could say that you're looking for new and fresh opportunities and challenges. This will give the impression to the interviewer that you are up to the task.
Example: While I enjoyed my previous job for what it was, I don't think it fulfilled or challenged me enough to get lasting satisfaction from it. I'm now looking for something that suits my level of ability and challenges me sufficiently. I believe that this role is perfect for that reason.
What are your strengths? – Common Interview Questions
This is one of the most common interview questions that you could be asked in your interview. Therefore, you need to prepare for it. Focus on giving work-related strengths, and make sure you supply them with examples. Try and think of three work-related strengths, as well as cases where those strengths have helped on a project.
Example: One of my strengths is that I can inspire those around me to work their hardest. In my previous role, we were approaching a tight deadline. While the work was challenging for everyone, I tried to keep people motivated as well as complete my own work. We were able to meet the deadline with no problem as we kept our spirits up.
What are your weaknesses? – Common Interview Questions
This is the polar opposite to the previous question. This one requires you to think carefully about what weaknesses you do possess, but wouldn't impact your ability to work well in the role you're applying. Whatever you do, do not say that you don't have any weaknesses. Everyone has a weakness of some kind, so if you claim not to have any your interviewer will think you're lying or simply naïve.
For this question, try to give one example of a weakness, but within it reveal or reiterate your strengths. Also, make sure that your weakness is not one which would stop you from doing the job well. If your job involves working with people, don't say that you struggle to work with people.
Example: I often find it hard to delegate work to others. This is because I'm a perfectionist and sometimes don't trust people to handle things for me. This feedback was given to me by my colleagues, and so I made attempts to change my approach which improved morale in my workplace.
Describe yourself. – Common Interview Questions
Depending on the interviewer, you might be faced with this question immediately after starting the interview, or after a few introductory questions. In either case, this is generally used as an ice-breaker. One of the easiest things to talk about is yourself, so this question is meant to get you talking and flowing into the subsequent questions. Try and focus on your qualities and work life when answering this question – the interviewer does not want to hear extensively about your home life, family, or hobbies. You should only talk about these things if the interviewer asks about them.
Instead, gear your question around your skills and qualities to give the interviewer an idea about your personality. Tell them what one of your skills is, followed by an example of when that's served you well in the work place.
Example: I consider myself to be incredibly motivated. This was helpful in my previous position, where I achieved 'XYZ' despite it being a big challenge.
What achievement are you most proud of? – Common Interview Questions
For this question, try and think of a work-related achievement that displays your best qualities, as well as skills that are going to be most valuable in the job for which you're being interviewed. For example, if your job will require a lot of teamwork, then you should try to think of an achievement where teamwork was one of the leading components to success.
Example: In my previous role, we had a large project that had multiple different elements. This meant that there would be people fulfilling tasks of lots of different kinds. I was placed in charge of this team, and acted as a liaison between all of the different smaller teams. The project was a resounding success and made the company a lot of money.
Tell me about a time when you went above and beyond what was necessary as part of your job. – Common Interview Questions
This is a fairly straightforward question that allows you to really sell yourself as a candidate. Just think of a work scenario where a combination of your talents, plus extra hard work and initiative, led to a successful outcome.
Example: In my previous position, a deadline was approaching fast and there was still a lot to do. Some of my team-mates had been absent due to sickness so they hadn't been able to complete their work. I asked my manager if it was possible to take over their assignments to get everything finished on time. My manager agreed to this and I completed the remaining work that my colleagues had left. This meant that we were able to meet the deadline.
Tell me about a time when you've had to handle a difficult situation. – Common Interview Questions
How you answer this question will almost entirely depend on the example that you give. Try to think of a work-related scenario where you've used skills that are relevant to the job that you're applying for in order to handle the situation. If possible, try to find a situation that was resolved positively.
Example: In a previous role, I was head of a team in which there were two members who couldn't resolve their differences regarding how we approached a project. I used my leadership skills to work with both of them to find a solution which satisfied both parties, allowing us to get on with the project.
Describe a time when you've made a mistake. – Common Interview Questions
This is possibly the most difficult question to answer in an interview. Whatever you do, do not say that you never make mistakes. Everyone makes mistakes, and your inability to admit that will come across as either disingenuous or naïve. Essentially, you need to choose a mistake that you've made – preferably one that didn't lead to a disaster. Then, explain how you handled it.
Example: I made a mistake in my previous role by sending out a timetable email that had the wrong information. This resulted in some people going to meetings at the wrong times, which resulted in a bit of disruption. Thankfully, I was able to spot my mistake before too many meetings were missed, and then sent another high-priority email to those affected, apologising and giving them the correct times for their meetings.
Why should we hire you? – Common Interview Questions
For this question, you need to answer in a way that shows a benefit for both yourself and your potential employer. You need to make it clear that you're the best person for the job, and you can only do this if you provide examples. Think about what is required for the position you're trying to fill, then tailor your answer to that. Here are a few examples of key qualities that might convince the interviewer that you're the best person for the job:
• You are able to work in a fast-changing environment that requires enthusiasm;
• You can make a positive impact on profit and can deliver under all kinds of conditions;
• You are loyal and hard-working, and can inspire those around you to be at the top of their game in the workplace.
What can you offer us that another candidate can't? – Common Interview Questions
This is similar to the previous question, except that it's a bit harsh as it puts you in direct competition with the rest of the candidates being interviewed. You need to sell yourself even further when asked this question, and assure the interviewer that you're the best candidate for the role. Here's a sample response that you can fill in with your own examples – try and adapt it to the role that you're applying for.
Example: I honestly believe that I am the best candidate for the position. While I know that there are others who are also capable, I think that I am the most capable. Along with the core skillset required to perform this role well, I can bring additional skills and qualities into play, such as [insert relevant skills]. If I am successful, I promise that you will not be disappointed. If I am unsuccessful, I will apply for the next opening since working for your company would be a pleasure.
Where do you see yourself in five (or ten) years? – Common Interview Questions
This is a common question which appears very tricky to answer. You want to demonstrate some ambition and be positive. Try and keep in mind what the interviewer is looking for. If the company you're applying for likes a constant turnover in staff, then it might not be appropriate to say that you'd like to still be there in 5 or 10 years. In contrast, an employer that seeks longevity when it comes to staff would likely want to see you say that you'd still be with them. Don't be arrogant, and curb your ambition slightly.
Example: I consider myself to be an ambitious person, and hope that I would show my value to your company and have progressed appropriately. However, I want to make sure that I learn the role properly so that I can serve the company as well as possible.
What are your career goals? – Common Interview Questions
This is somewhat similar to the previous question, as the interviewer is asking you to think ahead. Essentially, the interviewer wants to know the following:
1. Whether you are ambitious or not.
2. Whether you want a lasting career in the industry that this role belongs to.
3. How long you'd likely stay with them.
Employers like to know these things because they usually don't want to employ someone who is going to jump ship for a completely different career in six months' time. Training you might be expensive for them, so they'd rather have a strong candidate that they can invest in rather than someone who flits between jobs and careers. For example, if you're applying for a role in marketing, it's not a good idea to tell your interviewer that your career goal is to become a teacher. Try and keep your career goals within the same industry, as it shows that you have ambition to work hard and move up.
With this question, you can assure the interviewer that you intend on staying at the company for a long time. If you do this, you'll come across as a much stronger candidate than someone who doesn't seem as committed to staying in one position.
Example: I am quite ambitious, so would eventually like to reach the position of 'XYZ'. I'm very fond of doing 'ABC', so would like to be in a position where I can do that as my day-to-day job.
Tell us what you know about the company. – Common Interview Questions
Unless you're applying to work at a top-secret organisation, interviewers will expect you to have researched their company prior to the interview. When finding out about a company, try and learn and revise the following:
• The year the company was established;
• The name of the founder(s) and the current CEO;
• The vision of the company and some of its core beliefs;
• The company's main competitors;
• The number of staff that they have currently employed;
• What the company actually does!
You don't need to know the ins and outs of the company. Just find out enough to demonstrate your genuine interest in them and the work that they do.
Example: While researching your company, I found out that your company was established in 1998. You currently employ 60 people, and provide your service throughout the UK.
What would your dream job be? – Common Interview Questions
This is a bizarre question but you still need to take it fairly seriously, since your answer will say a lot about what you'd like out of a career. Try and link your dream job to the one that you're being interviewed for.
For instance, if you're applying for a role that involves programming, you might want to say that your dream job would be to create a video game or some kind of software.
What motivates you? – Common Interview Questions
Here, you should try to emphasise challenges and ambition as the things that motivate you. Interviewers like to see candidates who are driven by good opportunities since it shows passion and determination. From here, you can be a bit more specific to match the job that you're applying for.
Example: I'm motivated by the challenge of meeting new people and working with them. Since this role would involve me working with new people regularly, I believe that my motivation would encourage me to work at my very best.
Are you a leader or are you a follower? – Common Interview Questions
With this question, the interviewer is trying to gauge how well you'll fit in with the team that you'd be working with if successful. In most roles, you'll be taking orders from someone. In other roles, you'll also be giving directions to other people. So, it's important that you demonstrate that you can be a leader or a follower, and that you have the qualities of both. Try to think of examples which demonstrate leadership, but also the ability to be directed by others.
Example: In a previous role, I worked as part of a large team, and would be given tasks by my manager daily. I would create a 'to-do' list of all these tasks, and inform my manager whenever they were completed. I also spent a short time managing a small group. I kept track of all the tasks that they were currently working on, so that I knew how far along the project was and what further tasks I could give to them.
Are you willing to travel or relocate? – Common Interview Questions
The answer to this question will depend on your situation. Generally speaking, the interviewer won't bother asking this question unless there's the possibility that you will be asked to do either. If you answer with 'no', then you probably won't get the job. However, there's no point in saying 'yes' if you don't mean it. If you are prepared to travel or relocate, assure them that this won't be a problem.
Example: I'm willing to travel/relocate and have discussed this with my family. I'd like to know the relocation package and offers if I was successful in getting this job, and understand why there might be a need to relocate. I've moved in the past and so I'm more than ready to relocate if necessary.
What would your former boss like you to improve on? – Common Interview Questions
For a question like this, try to think of a minor issue that your previous boss brought up with you. Don't think of anything too drastic as it won't sell you as a candidate. Instead, think of something that's fairly insignificant. If possible, try to think of a way that you rectified the problem already, or put a positive spin on it.
Example: In my last role, my manager thought that I needed to be more vocal in meetings and when planning projects. I tended to stay quiet in these scenarios because I wanted to focus on listening to other people's ideas, then possibly approach them individually with improvements or other follow-ups.
Tell me something that makes you uncomfortable. – Common Interview Questions
The trick to this question is to focus on a single thing that makes you uncomfortable, and give an example of it. While this might seem to be a weakness, you should put a positive spin on it by giving an example of how you overcome this discomfort, meaning that you were capable of doing your job.
Example: I'm uncomfortable in environments where things aren't well organised. I entered my previous role to find that a lot of the information I had to work with regularly was disorganised. Therefore, I took the time to ensure that everything was well organised, so that I could work more efficiently and comfortably.
What are your hobbies? – Common Interview Questions
This question can have multiple purposes for the interviewer. The first is that they might be wondering about your physical health, especially if the role is physically strenuous. However, they might just be trying to get a better picture of who you are as a human being, and how you might fit in with the rest of the team. If you share a lot of hobbies with people already working in the team, this might play in your favour.
Example: My main hobbies are cycling and running. I also enjoy hiking, watching sports and films.
What questions have I missed? – Common Interview Questions
In a way, this is a trick question. The interviewer is asking you to quickly reflect on the interview, and tell them if anything important has been missed. If there are any questions on this list that have been missed, maybe it's worth bringing them to the interviewer's attention. This will show that you're thinking outside of the box, and not simply following the interview.
What questions would you like to ask us? – Common Interview Questions
This question is almost a given in any interview. While this might seem like a harmless final question for the sake of courtesy, the truth is that many interviewers will take your response here into account when considering you. If you don't ask any questions, you'll look disinterested or perhaps even oblivious. If you ask too many, or ask questions you should definitely know the answer to, you might come across as clueless. If the questions you ask are irrelevant or arrogant, this will also leave a bad impression on the interviewer.
So, you need to come up with maybe two or three relevant questions which show enthusiasm. Think of questions which will highlight that you've taken the time to look into the company even further.
Example: I was reading on your website about a campaign you've been running to bring more customers. How successful has it been?
Now you should have some ideas about how to answer some of the most common interview questions for your next interview. For more interview tips, check out our guide: How to Pass an Interview.

NetEase NTES, -5.46% soared $9.55 to $85.05 as Piper Jaffray upgraded the stock to outperform from market perform.

EBay's EBAY, +1.21% small gain came a day after Chief Executive Meg Whitman told journalists in India that the world's largest online auctioneer was unlikely this year to make the type of large acquisitions it did in 2005, when it paid more than $4 billion for Internet phone operator Skype Technologies.

From Victoria Ahearn of the Canadian Press:
CBC's 'X Company' based on real Second World War spy camp in Ontario
It's 1942 and a group of Allied agents are training at a top-secret facility — not in Europe, but on the shores of Lake Ontario. The premise behind the new CBC series "X Company" stems from a part of Canada's Second World War history that many don't know about, say the stars. Continue reading.

When I went out to check on things in my urban (NYC) terrace garden, I found one of my shrubs, the Continus Coggygria AKA Smoke Bush, also known as 'Grace' (pictured above), in the throes of deep prayer, as evidenced by the upright and open position of her sweet little branches in the image seen here.
'Grace' confided in me that she was inspired to "lift (her) arms to pray" because she had remembering hearing of Joyce Kilmer's poem, where the quote is from, in past postings here on this blog which you can find by clicking here as well as here and here.
My Continus Coggygria is not prone to prayer, but she confided in me that she felt if trees can lift their arms to pray, why couldn't shrubs? And she said that she felt the need to pray because of the lack of snowfall we have had in New York City this year, as she is very worried about global warming!
Snow, while it is a hindrance to many New Yorkers, and admittedly impedes the elderly and physically challenged from getting around, is something my Continus Coggygria truly misses.
She recalls the time last winter when she allowed her branches to be a cup for "nature's snow cones" which was a year and a day ago on January 27, 2010, a fact, dear reader, that you may recall from the image seen below.
It seems my Continus Coggygria feeling's were prompted by reading that New York City, where she and I live, has lately been accused of being a "nanny city" with our Mayor Michael Bloomberg "taking to the radio to pontificate about our lousy diets, gripe about our sinister smoking habits, and promote his latest utopian health scheme" (read full article here), and the actions of "hissoner" have prompted several jokes by yours truly when it comes to considering the small amounts of snow we have had in New York City this winter season.
"Perhaps, Mayor Bloomberg has banned snowfall in New York City," I have suggested, and I have offered an opinion that "if and when snow does fall again here in New York City, perhaps it must now fall on alternate sides of the street so as to not interfere with parking and trash removal regulations. Or better yet only fall in the city's parks."
Little did I know when I made these jokes, that my Continus Coggygria would take them to heart, but it seems that she has actually thought that our Mayor could and did ban snow! It turns out that she is aware of information documented in 2009 regarding a mayor in Russia banning snowfall!
As it happens, my Continus Coggygria has her facts correct. Mayor Yury Luzhkov, who was the mayor of Moscow, did attempt to ban snowfall on his fair city. In a 2009 article TIME World stated, "For just a few million dollars, the mayor of Moscow will hire the Russian air force to spray a fine chemical mist over the clouds before they reach the capital, forcing them to dump their snow outside the city. Authorities say this will be a boon for Moscow, which is typically covered with a blanket of snow from November to March. Road crews won't need to constantly clear the streets, and the traffic — and quality of life — will undoubtedly improve." (To read the full article, please click here which is also the link to credit for the image below).
Any thoughts, dear reader on how I might console my Continus Coggygria at this time? It has been unusually warm in New York City and I respect her feelings, after all, she has been the inspiration for one of my most popular greeting cards titled "Grace" (Smokey Bush) which can be viewed by clicking here.
ADDENDUM: I no longer actively produce event program covers, invitations and the types of greeting cards described on my website but arrangements might be able to be made under certain circumstances.
My focus is on the Words In Our Beak book series (pictured below)whose stories are told from the point of view of Cam, a female cardinal.
As of May 22 2018, I have rendered some images from these books into greeting cards and they are available on Fine Art America, please click here for more info.
Re my book series: Words In Our Beak's goal is to open readers to a simple understanding of the winged world and their environment. Set in my rooftop urban garden in New York City. Words In Our Beak is directed to children and adults who are curious about birds, and want to learn about them from a unique perspective. The books include hundreds of images of flora and fauna, links to movies, as well as to informative narratives that have been created by the author.

My mug!
I began shooting when I was 15. My first camera was an Olympus OM-10. I "graduated" to an OM-1. Let's just say that was over 30 years ago and leave it at that!
I always dreamed of shooting on Nikon. eBay came to the rescue last year when I scraped together to build my vintage collection. I now shoot on a Nikon F2, FA, and F4.
In the digital world I shoot on the semi-pro Olympus E-PL5. A sweet little mirrorless four-thirds gem.
Within the professional realm, I make a living as an ISO / Computer Crimes Forensics Investigator for the State of New York. I work in East Flatbush, Brooklyn.
I reside with my lovely wife Maggie out on Long Island together with our cat Myszka, who is bilingual in English and Polish (Maggie wants to add Japanese to her repertoire)...

Former presidential candidate and retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson made a somewhat shocking statement Friday when he told The Daily Beast that he wished Donald Trump would stop calling his Democratic rival a "bigot."
"I don't generally get into the name-calling thing," Carson said via a phone interview. "I kind of left that behind in the third grade. I certainly don't encourage it because the issues that we're facing are incredibly important — for us and for the future generations."
Calling Hillary Clinton a bigot has been a new method of attack for Trump, who has used the phrase very liberally this past week. Even during a CNN interview with Anderson Cooper, the GOP nominee stood by his words despite pressure from the host to retract.
Advertisement - story continues below
"She is a bigot," Trump told Cooper. "She is selling them [African-Americans] down the tubes because she's not doing anything for those communities. She talks a good game. But she doesn't do anything."
Carson is currently serving as adviser to Trump, so it's unclear whether or not the Republican nominee will take his advice. But Carson believes calling people bigots is "what people do who don't have anything to talk about."
TRENDING: AOC Says She's Taking Action To Stop Trump's National Emergency Declaration
Clinton has engaged in the same behavior, choosing to trade insults regularly with Trump.
At a rally Thursday in Reno, Nev., she subtly tried to pin her Republican opponent as giving a voice to white supremacists and legitimizing fringe conspiracy theorists.
Advertisement - story continues below
For the most part, Carson seems to be detached from the mudslinging, always appearing calm and contemplative during interviews. However, the former neurosurgeon does agree with Trump's premise that Democrats take the black vote for granted.
"The important thing is that he has started the process," Carson asserted. "As you know, the Republican party has been relatively missing in action when it comes to reaching out to minority communities in recent decades. I think particularly in the African-American community, a large number of people recognize that the Democrats have not done diddly-squat for them. But they don't feel that they have any other place to go."
Carson is confident Trump will be able to steadily gain confidence in the black community and maybe find a new home within the Republican party.
"This is something that he's going to focus on," Carson said. "Now that people understand that, as he goes into the communities, I think their interests will be piqued."
Trump shows no signs of slowing down his attacks on Clinton in an attempt to win the black vote. Friday he released an Instagram video showing Clinton in 1996 referring to African-American criminals as "super predators." He followed up that post with a tweet sending a similar message.

How quickly people forget that Crooked Hillary called African-American youth "SUPER PREDATORS" – Has she apologized?
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 26, 2016
Expect that line of rhetoric to continue when Trump makes a visit to Detroit — Carson's hometown — Sept. 3.

The Advantages of Online Advertising
Research indicates that forcing advertising on uninterested people is a waste of time and money. Features like DVR and other on-demand programming are becoming more popular, enabling consumers to skip advertisers' messages.
This puts businesses in a bind: how can we advertise if no one is paying attention to commercials or print ads?
Businesses need to go where the customers are -- and with nearly 71% of the US population online, the Internet is the place to be.
In many ways, the movement from traditional advertising is great for businesses. Here are three distinct advantages that make it worth the effort.
Search-specific ads
Much like Netflix, online advertising is on-demand. A user who searches with the phrase San Antonio orthopedic surgery is going to see ads for orthopedic surgeons, and not for petting zoos or pharmaceuticals.
When advertising online, businesses have more control over where an ad is placed and who sees it. Those who see your ads are interested in your business, and are interested in it right now. This saves your business money and improves your ROI because you're not presenting to thousands who have no interest in your product.
Instead of casting a wide net, programs like Google AdWords allow businesses to target only their desired market, which leads to higher-quality leads and customers.
Pay for clicks, not impressions
A business owner who advertises in the paper pays for that space, even if the paper doesn't sell.
With online, or Pay-per-Click, advertising, PPC, an ad can appear an unlimited number of times in a day, and the advertiser will pay only for those who actually click on the ad. If a particular ad receives no clicks, the owner will not be charged a penny.
As a bonus, those who do click on the ads are people who are already interested in the promoted product or service. By allowing advertisers to target a specific customer base, PPC helps marketers improve their ROI, because those who see and click on your ads are more likely to become customers.
Tracking site visitors
While Pay-per-Click and AdWords allow advertisers to target ideal markets while keeping costs low, they also put crucial information about those ads and customers at the advertisers' fingertips.
Perhaps a certain ad has a high rate of clicks; tracking programs allow the advertiser to track ads' bounce rates, or the percentages of people who came to the site and then promptly left. Metrics can be deceiving: a high click rate may sound good, but a high bounce rate is an indicator that a website's visitors are not finding the content for which they are looking.
By looking at the metrics on impressions, click-through rates, bounce rates, and other numbers, an advertiser has the opportunity to improve their landing pages, as well as their ads and keywords.
PPC allows an advertiser to discover information about the people who are clicking on ads. A tracking program can pinpoint the geographical location of visitors and what keywords they used to find you, as well as how long they remained on the site and which pages they visited.
Final thoughts
Google AdWords is compatible with any website, and can give site owners insight into their visitors' minds. These programs can also give business owners ideas on how to optimize ads, keywords, and content, which leads to more visits, conversions, and customers.
Online advertising allows advertisers to target their ideal market, often at a lower cost than traditional advertising. Combined with the ability to reach those who are already interested in a given product or service and its superior track-ability, it's no wonder that online advertising has left its traditional counterpart struggling to measure up.

The 111th United States Open Golf Championship will take place next week at Congressional Country Club in Bethesda, Md., just outside of Washington, D.C.
It's a relatively easy drive of about three hours for those from the area who have tickets — or are hoping to score tickets on location. For avid golf fans, it would be well worth the trip.
I had the privilege of covering the U.S. Open when it was played at Oakmont Country Club in 2007, and there's just something special about being there in person to view such a grand event.
If you can't make it next week, and attending a U.S. Open is still on your bucket list, you won't have to wait long for another opportunity. The Olympic Club in San Francisco will host next year's championship, but it will return to Pennsylvania in 2013 at Merion Golf Club in Ardmore, then Oakmont again in 2016.
The defending champion is Graeme McDowell of Northern Ireland, who won last year's event at Pebble Beach.
In news that broke earlier this week, Tiger Woods pulled out of the tournament because of lingering issues with his left leg, leaving him uncertain how soon he can resume his pursuit of Jack Nicklaus' record for major titles.
It will be the first time Woods has missed the U.S. Open since 1994, when he had just graduated high school.
As we prepare for the U.S. Open, here are some interesting things you might not know about the "Blue" course that will host the event:
— Congressional was founded in 1924 with four presidents listed as founding members. They were Woodrow Wilson, William Howard Taft, Warren Harding, and Calvin Coolidge. Dwight Eisenhower, Gerald Ford, and Herbert Hoover were also members of the club. Many members of Congress have also joined over the years. Congressional was originally intended to be a meeting place for politicians and businessmen that was informal.
— Membership fees for the club reportedly start at $150,000. In addition, the waiting list is up to eight years.
— This will be the third U.S. Open at Congressional. The first was in 1964, won by Ken Venturi. It also hosted in 1997, when Ernie Els raised the trophy. The 1976 PGA Championship — won by Dave Stockton — was also held there.
— Since 2007, Woods has hosted his annual tournament at Congressional. That event is the AT&T National, which is held over the Fourth of July weekend. In 2010 and 2011, the event was moved to Aronimink Golf Club near Philadelphia to accommodate the U.S. Open. However, it will return to Congressional in 2012 to continue there. Woods won the event in 2009.
— In 1997, the course ended on a par-3 18th hole. But in 2006, it was redesigned to move that hole to No. 10. Now, the U.S. Open will conclude on a par-4 that plays over 500 yards. That could lead to some big drama when the event wraps up. The course is traditionally known for its rolling terrain, tree-lined fairways and wide challenging greens. Water hazards also come into play.
Local team places
first at Pitt outing
Dr. F.R. "Skeets" Ellis, Derek Ellis, Glenn Miller, Nick Sanner, Dennis Sprock and Matt Zatko bested a field of 180 golfers at the 18th annual Beaver-Moon Chapter of the Panther Club Golf Outing on June 3.
The team posted a score of 17-under par at The Club at Shadow Lakes in Aliquippa, a par 72 layout that plays to 6,265 yards. The event was played in teams of sixsomes.
The featured speaker at the banquet following golf was Todd Graham the new head football coach at the University of Pittsburgh.

Alright, quite an obvious one, I guess.
Cause one of my ex-girlfriends having a pretty huge on on her face, that is.
Couldn't but notice, seeing her the first time. Though the texture of the skin was hardly altered, just the colour, still was very unusual.
But after she'd reassured me it didn't hurt, soon became more normal her having one than everybody else not. Already liked the colours, the shape, and how she wore it.
Though she told me later of some boyfriends always urging her to apply make-up before going out and about.
For the life of me, absolutely never could dig that.
Till some years later, when my then girlfriend started going on about me putting on a cap whenever we'd go out or others would visit, that is.

While being on an assignment for tomorrow appointment, I suddenly remember tomorrow is December 23rd on the Lunar Calendar and I forgot writing "Sớ Táo quân". (L-))
Táo quân have origins of eastern countries, includes 3 gods: Thần Đất (Earth God), Thần Nhà (House God) and Thần bếp núc (Kitchen God). However, Táo quân is tentatively called as Kitchen God. Besides, "Sớ Táo quân" is a household letter which is believed to be sent to Jade Emperor God through the Kitchen God on the every twenty third day of the twelfth lunar month. In this letter, people will write about their family's activities over the past year and wish for happiness as well as luck for the next year. They hope that thank to the Jade Emperor God, their wishes will come true.
I have been given this mission - writing "Sớ Táo quân" – since I was at grade 10. I love it, don't know why :)). At this time every year, I write all my wishes down on the Letter avidly. I'm not superstitious, maybe I just want to review the old year, show my love to my family and find motivation for the new year. This year, the Letter is not a handwritten letter any more, it s a typewritten, so the Kitchen God can read it easily (:D). And here is my "Sớ Táo quân" for this year ^^. How about yours? (;))
Hope Speak: You want to do something that people recognize like us. You want to create something that lasts generations; that is remembered for hundreds of years. You desire to inspire someone to see life as it really is, a gift and a pleasure, being to be grateful for. When you write for us means you write to change the world.

Hey guys/gals!! I have a Cobray M11-9mm gun here that I have been thinking about selling. I have no idea what the value is of it. Ten million, Twenty million??? I figured since most of us enjoy guns as well - maybe someone would have a value. Thanks for your help!!!

Hey Mikey , Its been a few years since I did the gunshow circut and bought these sorts of toys ( mini14, H&K M93 ) but given big brothers distinct interest in making sure getting these things is next to impossible cause were all gonna turn into rabid criminals soon as we get em' your looking at the better side of a thousand bucks ( i paid $900 for my H&K ten years ago ) .

I did a quick websearch and prices seem to run from $300 to $500 for the gun. 30 rounds magazines are going for $30.00. You'll probably get more for it at a gunshow, or from a private sale (assuming this is legal in Wisconsin). Allan makes a good point about avalability. Lack of supply always increases the price.

It looks like there is a lot of wiggle room between both of these posts. I was thinking it would be around a grand in value since they are not making them anymore - but I just was not sure.

I am a BACP Counsellor also trained as a neurobiologically informed trauma therapist.
I'm a member of TAG (Trauma & Abuse Group), qualified to Degree level with extensive experience of working in a variety of different settings, volunteering in the public and private sector along side my private practice addressing a wide breadth of emotional concerns.
Last year I was on the clinical team of one of the world leading trauma experts; Janina Fisher. In one of her private trauma clinics treating some of the most challenging presentations of trauma. So I bring with me to my private practice some the most up to date treatment applications for complex trauma, PTSD, Disassociation, borderline and similar diagnoses.
I have taken Janina's valuable training and experience to the homeless in Swindon and am currently writing a trauma resolution program for Threshold homeless Shelter in Swindon and am clinical lead for the delivery of this program. All my private practice session fees are fundamental in funding this homeless project.
which explains how trauma can impact us.
In my experience counselling has helped clients, presenting with all sorts of difficulties, such as: emotional overwhelm, hopelessness, shame, worthlessness, lack of memories, mistrust, anxiety, panic attacks, stress, depression, chronic pain, irritability, loss of interest, decreased concentration, insomnia, alcohol, addiction, lack of self care or confidence, disordered eating, comfort eating, legacy of abuse or neglect, self destructive behaviour, parenting and relationship issues. Along side clients who come because they want to make sense of a life event such as problems related to affairs, betrayal, separation and divorce, abusive relationship, bereavement and loss of long term relationships.
For example... a client may report feeling a loss of interest in things, in life, in relationships. Sometimes this is a subtle way of our emotional well being telling us that we have had a tough time digesting when something really important and meaningful was taken away from us. We cope with the loss by not getting too attached to anything again in the future. The logic being if we are not too attached we don't get hurt when or if it is taken away from us. There tends to be an underlying message hidden within the symptoms clients present. So a good place to start in counselling is to explain what isn't working in life at the minute.
Sometimes clients report sudden, intense and lasting 'moments' of emotional overwhelm which after the 'moment' has past seems out of proportion to the situation. This is very common in unresolved trauma. But often clients are too scared to bring it to counselling and instead battle with 'if I could just keep it under control, do better, stop over reacting or similar...' again this is all very common when there is an underlying situation that has not been resolved properly and you'd be surprised just how it can be unravelled. I also often here clients report feeling like they are a fraud, carrying a sense of I am going to get found out, like they are not good enough and it is only a matter of time before people will discover it. This again is a symptom of trauma. Also see:
Take a look at the additional images uploaded for further symptoms of this.
Counselling is a talking therapy which helps clients understand that the symptoms (whatever they may be e.g. emotional overwhelm, hopelessness, shame, worthlessness, lack of memories, mistrust, anxiety, panic attacks, stress, depression, chronic pain, irritability, loss of interest, decreased concentration, insomnia, alcohol, addiction, lack of self care or confidence, disordered eating, comfort eating, self destructive behaviour). When a client can understand the symptoms it is easier to see what the symptoms is telling them and for us to work on restoring emotional well being, improve low self-esteem, unravel things like anger management, rage, bereavement, phobias and post natal depression etc. By providing a unique perspective it can assist in evaluating and changing how life is being experienced. This can improve relationships, how we communicate with our children, family issues and help us digest affairs and betrayals, separation and divorce.
Counselling is one of those therapies which really requires the professional to hold a great deal of integrity, so that clients stand a good chance of being able to open up and share their difficulties. In order to prove our integrity to clients we do a great deal of training with other more experienced professionals and take a lot of personal counselling ourselves to ensure your sessions remain completely uncontaminated from anything other than what your bring.
My approach combines Person-Centred and Psychodynamic theories providing clients with options of short term or open ended therapy. I am trained and experienced in dealing with all of the mentioned symptoms. One of the areas I don't have training in and therefore I do not work with clients who's main presenting symptom falls within sexual addiction or dysfunction, however there are many therapists trained specifically in this area.
I do work a lot with clients who appear to get a sudden, intense and long lasting, (as in the feeling that linger and impact their day sometimes week) so like a sudden high impact of emotional overwhelm. These clients when triggered often report feeling like there is something seriously wrong with them, like this just is not normal... this is often a very common symptom of a previous trauma (trauma can mean anything which scares us, so from a car accident to growing up with a scarey parent). I use a very effective approach under the direction of Janina Fisher, PhD who is recognised in our field for the understanding and treatment of the legacy of trauma: attachment failure, neglect, physical or sexual abuse in childhood, sexual assault, medical trauma, and domestic or community violence.
Everyone deserves to be heard and I believe from client feedback I can offer clients empathy, acceptance, understanding and place where they feel safe and capable of change. I believe with the right support you will find the resources you need to feel like your own expert in what you need to find your potential and continue self growth through what is a self empowering counselling relationship.
I can be found on the BACP's Register of Counsellors & Psychotherapists, certificate number 054329. This register was accredited under a Parliamentary Scheme in 2013 to protect clients and support best practice. So you'll find I work ethically and I am a trusted pair of hands for clients.
Counselling is an opportunity to unravel; thoughts which maybe tie us up in knots, decisions which could make us go round in circles and change habits which might make us cringe to the core. Counselling can also be a life sustaining therapy for the emotionally bruised.
Some clients know their limitations, spot trouble ahead or want to make changes and know they need to seek help to achieve this. Whilst at the other end of the spectrum others are right at their wits end before they get in touch. There is no right or wrong time to start counselling, you will be welcome whenever to choose to get in touch...day or night and I usually respond promptly to text messages and emails (although they are delivered when the phone syncs).
These are some of the Certificates and Qualifications I have obtained which support my work:
Practical Brain-Focused Strategies for working with Depression 2017 (new research on natural antidepressants) with Elisha Goldstein
Brain Science, Neurobiologically Informed Neuroplasticity 2016 with Dan Seigel, Rich Hanson, Kelly McGonigal, Norman Doldge, Stephen Porges, Pat Ogden

You can pay as you go or swap to monthly and back again depending on whatever suits your budget at the time. I see people normally weekly but also once the relationship is established some clients prefer fortnightly.
Fees are very reasonable and are priced to cover insurances, advertising, supervision and professional memberships etc. I work because love helping people. The rest of my private practice fees supports the delivery of a significant trauma resolution program being gifted to organisations who can not offer such services.
As a guide I charge £43 pay as you go and £37.50 if paid in advance monthly for all daytime slots slots. Evening slots can be offered at £43 per hour if paid 24 hours in advance. But please see my website for the most up to date rates and offers... or text me.
I do offer couples counselling at £55 per session.
Ever felt like there is something inside your head holding you back?
Maybe a little more self control, to stop you showing your frustrations, your anger, your rage...
Maybe a little more self constraint, to help you act more appropriately, stop you showing your true feelings which are getting you into trouble...
Maybe a little more confidence or self esteem to be able to tell people how your feel, get your own needs met...
Maybe a little more self discipline, to help you maintain better boundaries with people, stop them from making your feel invisible, help you to say no when you need to...
My experience tells me many clients come having grown up pleasing or butting against their parents, their teachers, their friends and peers. They leave school and work hard to please their bosses to get a promotion, get a long term partner and work hard to please them and eventually they wake up exhausted from pleasing or butting against everyone else and find they need to start working on pleasing themselves without feeling like they it comes with a high price tag attached. A lot of these clients will have lost sight or the presence of a significant care figure during their own development and now have fundamental needs not being met in the right ways. Such as:
When our needs are not met in an appropriate way defenses to start popping up all over the place. Sometime we may notice a bit of anxiety before our defences kick in sometime it may not be in our awareness at all. Defences are behaviour which do not really fit with who we are. Behaviour which maybe gets us into trouble but on the surface stops us from getting hurt which is why unconsciously we do it. Such as:
The fact is no amount of trying will find the person we really are behind all the defenses if we are rubbing alongside things which unconsciously threaten our own or make us feel like we are going to get hurt. Nobody encourages us to love and please ourselves this is something we are lucky enough to just get or we need help finding a balance that works for us. A great place for clients to start is looking at their physical health and you can start today by looking at some of the basic gifts we can offer ourselves...
If not I wonder why not? How can we feel emotionally balanced if physically we are neglecting ourselves. On a first initial session when clients are not really sure where to start or what to share this can be a good place to start.
Nobody wants to admit they are struggling... we might ask the opinion of others to try and gage if we are OK. But at the point that uncertainty enters it becomes very difficult to understand who is right in any situation. Relationships start to become strained as we feel less heard and understood. Sometimes we get a sense that things are not OK but this means we stop rubbing shoulders with others as it emphasis how different we feel. We struggle on, trying to over compensate until we become exhausted with trying and we are unable to cover all the cracks.
It can feel very scarey coming to counselling but in my experience nobody has yet regretted facing that fear, being able to look it square in the eye and work out that fear alone is no long going to limit the responses and options available.
I'm waiting for you to get in touch so you can decide if we can make this journey together. I'm just a text message away...
