i think everyone feels the winter blues a bit but i thought you might like to know to what extent...
a survey found that winter leaves people feeling demotivated, deprived of sleep and irritable;
-Half of Britons suffer from "winter depression" between September and March
-48% of those surveyed believe they suffer from seasonal affective disorder (SAD)
-18% of people eat more than usual to cheer themselves up
-16% find it difficult to sleep
-15% believe winter depression makes them argumentative
-January and February are the most likely months for people to suffer from winter depression, followed by December and November.
there is the mentallity behind the winter blues but there's also a scientific reason;
Lack of sunlight reduces the amount of serotonin we produce - which is a hormone that makes us feel happy, sort of like a endorphin
like any kind of blues though the winter blues can be fought and here's 10 ways to get rid of them;
1. try to get as much sunlight as possible during the day
2. eat lots of oranges and try wearing water proof clothing to avoids coughs and colds
3. remember the good things about winter- winter holidays, snow, january sales ect
4. it's common to want more sleep in the winter so have a long bath and a early night
5. try and do as many things as possible that release endorphins and other happy chemicals - exercise, eat some chocolate or have a nice night in with your loved one ;)
6. make sure your warm and cosy by always wearing layers, adding a extra blanket on your bed or even simply just have some nice hot coco
7. Try and spend as much time as possible with your friends or family come rain or snow, remember they probably have the same blues as you
8. Some holiday cheer or some brandy to warm your cockles may be nice in the winter but if your feeling down try and avoid the alcohol also alcohol actually restricts the blood flow and so your more likley to feel even colder
9. Eat a good breakfast and high enery foods so you won't feel as slugish or lethargic
10. most importantly remember spring is just around the corner!

Travelling to different countries in Asia this year with my girlfriend and I’m considering if I should just book with a travel agency rather than making arrangements on my own. We’re both thinking about going to Singapore, Vietnam, Malaysia, Thailand, and Cambodia. I’ve seen Multiple city singles tours packages which are rather affordable. It already includes flight tickets, a 4-star accommodation for the whole trip, city tour in each country, and all-day meals. Should I just get this kind of package?
- I've been keeping The Fable Spot completely updated on the latest news on Fable 2
- There is a new user by the name of "Hulu" (his/her username is even in a fancy green font)
- The video player which he/she posts his/her videos from is also called "Hulu"
- This user has been reposting my videos with only two keywords ("ign" and "hulu")and the video player is only viewable to those who live in America
This has been happening on quite a few other spots, but I feel kind of awkward about complaining to Dave about it because (judging from Hulu's fancy username font) Hulu has probably got some agreement with Fanpop. None the less I am cheesed of at Hulu reposting my videos which he/she could see were already there if he/she move their eyes down about three inches.
Could do with some help as to what to do next.
Life
Life is a gift
A rare one
I got to live every second
Since the time you are born
You got to live it not to waste it
This is the only one you have
There’s no re-born or re-incarnation
If you don’t know how to behave
Life is short
So live it good
Whatever is your mood
Don’t be shy have some fun
So your life will shine
As brighter as the sun
