As a level 1 (100level) student, if you have the finance, I strongly recommend you start ICAN as soon as possible. It will really help you. Forget about this May diet/exam and work towards November diet.

Mind you, once you get to your third year but yet to start, it is better you wait till you graduate as it may not be wise again to start from the first stage ICAN. So the earlier the better.
pls how much is it going to cost?

Education / You Want To Be Liked? Follow These 12 Habits Of Extremely Likable People. by nanyya5000(f): 10:02am On Feb 13, 2015
I did some digging to uncover the key behaviours that emotionally intelligent people engage in that make them so likeable. Here are 12 of the best. If you want to be similar, practice these habits:

1. Ask questions

The biggest mistake people make when it comes to listening is they’re so focused on what they’re going to say next or how what the other person is saying is going to affect them that they fail to hear what’s being said. The words come through loud and clear, but the meaning is lost.

A simple way to avoid this is to ask a lot of questions. People like to know you’re listening, and something as simple as a clarification question shows that not only are you listening, you also care about what they’re saying. You’ll be surprised how much respect and appreciation you gain just by asking questions.

2. Put Away Your Phone



Nothing will turn someone off to you like a mid-conversation text message or even a quick glance at your phone. When you commit to a conversation, focus all of your energy on the conversation. You will find that conversations are more enjoyable and effective when you immerse yourself in them.

3. Be Genuine



Being genuine and honest is essential to being likeable. No one likes a fake. People gravitate toward those who are genuine because they know they can trust them. It is difficult to like someone when you don’t know who they really are and how they really feel.

4. Don’t Pass Judgement



If you want to be likeable you must be open-minded. Being open-minded makes you approachable and interesting to others. No one wants to have a conversation with someone who has already formed an opinion and is not willing to listen.

5. Don’t Be An Attention Seeker



People are averse to those who are desperate for attention. You don’t need to develop a big, extroverted personality to be likeable. Simply being friendly and considerate is all you need to win people over. When you speak in a friendly, confident, and concise manner, you will notice that people are much more attentive and persuadable than if you try to show them you’re important. People catch on to your attitude quickly and are more attracted to the right attitude than what—or how many people—you know.

6. Be Consistent





Few things make you more unlikeable than when you’re all over the place. When people approach you, they like to know whom they’re dealing with and what sort of response they can expect. To be consistent you must be reliable, and you must ensure that even when your mood goes up and down it doesn’t affect how you treat other people.

7. Use Positive Body Language



Becoming aware of your gestures, expressions, and tone of voice (and making certain they’re positive) will draw people to you like ants to a picnic. Using an enthusiastic tone, uncrossing your arms, maintaining eye contact, and leaning towards the person who’s speaking are all forms of positive body language that high-EQ people use to draw others in. Positive body language can make all the difference in a conversation.

8. Leave A Strong First Impression



Research shows most people decide whether or not they like you within the first seven seconds of meeting you. They then spend the rest of the conversation internally justifying their initial reaction. This may sound terrifying, but by knowing this you can take advantage of it to make huge gains in your likeability. First impressions are tied intimately to positive body language. Strong posture, a firm handshake, smiling, and opening your shoulders to the person you are talking to will help ensure that your first impression is a good one.

9. Greet People By Their Name



Your name is an essential part of your identity, and it feels terrific when people use it. Likeable people make certain they use others’ names every time they see them. You shouldn’t use someone’s name only when you greet him. Research shows that people feel validated when the person they’re speaking with refers to them by name during a conversation.

If you’re great with faces but have trouble with names, have some fun with it and make remembering people’s names a brain exercise. When you meet someone, don’t be afraid to ask her name a second time if you forget it right after you hear it. You’ll need to keep her name handy if you’re going to remember it the next time you see her.

10. Smile!



People naturally (and unconsciously) mirror the body language of the person they’re talking to. If you want people to like you, smile at them during a conversation and they will unconsciously return the favor and feel good as a result.

11. Know When To Open Up



Be careful to avoid sharing personal problems and confessions too quickly, as this will get you labeled a complainer. Likeable people let the other person guide when it’s the right time for them to open up.

12. Balance Work Passion With Fun



People gravitate toward those who are passionate. That said, it’s easy for passionate people to come across as too serious or uninterested because they tend to get absorbed in their work. Likeable people balance their passion with the ability to have fun. At work they are serious, yet friendly. They still get things done because they are socially effective in short amounts of time and they capitalize on valuable social moments. They minimize small talk and gossip and instead focus on having meaningful interactions with their coworkers. They remember what you said to them yesterday or last week, which shows that you’re just as important to them as their work.

Remember

My grandfather had an old saying “not everyone wears brown boots”. This refers to the fact that not everyone likes the same thing. Even if 99 people out of 100 find you very likeable, there will still be one that doesn't. Move on.

Romance / 13 Worst Gifts You Can Give Her On Valentine's Day. by nanyya5000(f): 10:36am On Feb 09, 2015
For most guys, Valentine's Day is the most fake and meaningless holiday on the calendar, but for girls, it's a much different story. Even if your girlfriend says she doesn't care about what you do for her on Valentine's Day doesn't mean you're off the hook. This is because all of her friends will tell her later in the week how good their boyfriends were to them, and if your girlfriend has nothing positive to say, then she'll have something to knock you about. If however, you come through on Valentine's Day and swoop her off her feet, you'll definitely earn some bonus points. Part of swooping her off her feet on Valentine's Day involves buying her a great gift. If you're researching the perfect gift for your girlfriend, make sure you don't get her any of the following.

1. Cash
There's nothing more impersonal than giving cash as a gift. Cash is just the least thoughtful gift you can get for someone else and for Valentine's Day, it's even less thoughtful. If you've dated a girl long enough to call her your girlfriend, you should know what will push her buttons and make her happy. If the best idea you can think of is cash, you better do some more brainstorming.

2. Clothing That Doesn't Fit Her Body Or Style
This is a big one for several different reasons. If you buy something too big, she might get the impression that you think she is fat, which is the last thing you ever want to do. If you buy something too small, she might feel fat because she doesn't fit. Again, this will just bring you headaches. The next reason why you should avoid buying her clothes is that she might feel obligated to wear something she hates, just because you bought it for her. The best thing to do would be to avoid buying her clothing altogether and think of something else.




3. Cheap Perfume
Much like buying her clothing she doesn't like, if you buy her perfume she doesn't like, she might feel obligated to use it. Choosing scents is a very personal decision that you should leave to her.

4. Fake Jewelry Or Fake Flowers
If you're going to get a girl jewelry or flowers, make sure it's the real thing. It might cost a bit more, but buying a knock off might be more of an insult than buying nothing at all. Your girlfriend might equate the quality of the things you buy her to the quality of the love you have for her. The logic is that if a guy really loves a girl, he'll be more than willing to part with his money to make her happy. If you cheap out on anything, she might get the impression that she's not worth the cost of the real thing.

5. A Gag Gift
Girls take Valentine's Day much more seriously than guys do. If you buy your girlfriend something like a blowup doll or rubber chicken, she'll freak. Even if she has a sense of humor and understands your intentions, she might still be upset because you didn't take things as seriously as you should have.




6. Porn Adult Toys
The problem with buying porn or adult toys for your girlfriend on Valentine's Day is that gifts like these scream s3x. Valentine's Day is a day you should set aside for romance and love. Sure you can knock boots later at night, but during the day everything mushy and romantic should be on the top of your list.

7. Kitchen Appliances, Cleaning Equipment
If you get her a kitchen appliance or cleaning equipment, it's like asking her to do chores for you. And nothing is less romantic than a new mop or toaster. So no matter how good the deals are at Sears, opt to buy something more personal and romantic.




8. A Re-gift
Giving your girlfriend a re-gift is just about as bad as giving her cash. This is an especially bad idea because you probably don't have anything too romantic to give her as a re-gift. Maybe you received a coffee maker for Christmas that you're not too thrilled about. Would your girlfriend swoon on Valentine's Day after receiving a box of chocolates and a coffee maker? Probably not. If you have a gift lying around that you don't want, dump it off on eBay instead of on your girlfriend.

9. Anything Sent Via Email, Facebook, Or MySpace
Technology is great, but anything you send her via email, Facebook, or MySpace will not do anything to impress your girlfriend. What is she going to tell her mother? That she received an eBox of chocolates from you? Even if your girlfriend is a complete tech geek, she won't get a kick out of something you only spent a few mouse clicks on.

10. Anything Over 250$
The one exception to this rule is if you want to propose to your girlfriend on Valentine's Day, which would require a trip to the jewelry store that could easily cost more than 250$. Other than that, you shouldn't buy your girlfriend anything too expensive. This is especially true if you've only been dating your girlfriend for a short while. Here are a few reasons why you shouldn't buy her anything too expensive.

She might take advantage of you in the future
She might feel uncomfortable if she got you a much less expensive gift
She might feel your feelings for her are overwhelmingly strong
She might feel you want something from her after giving such a nice gift
You'll be out a lot of money
So don't be a chump and find something meaningful for her without breaking the bank. You'll be much better off if you do.

11. Gym Membership, Weight Loss Pills, Girdle
Anything that even remotely implies a girl is fat is a terrible gift for many reasons. The first reason is that most girls, no matter how skinny, have some insecurities about their weight. If you buy your girlfriend something like a gym membership, weight loss pills, or a girdle, her insecurities will only grow in enormity. And when your girlfriend has issues insecurities, who do you think she's going to turn to? You! In addition to making your girlfriend feel more insecure, buying her something that might imply she is fat would flat out insult her. It's just too much trouble to bear.

12. Dinner At A Horrible Restaurant
When girls think about Valentine's Day, their heads fill with images of flowers, chocolate, and dinner by candle light. One surefire way to shatter her little fantasy is to take her to a cut rate restaurant or fast food joint. If you take your girlfriend out to dinner, make sure you take her to a special place, and to put a little extra effort into it. Make reservations, familiarize yourself with the menu ahead of time, and dress nicely when you take her out. Doing these extra little things will make a big difference.

13. Nothing
This is by far the worst thing in the world you can get for your girlfriend. If you do absolutely nothing for her on Valentine's Day, she'll be crushed. If you've been in a struggling relationship, and do this, a breakup might be in your near future. Even if things are going well, failing to come up with anything on Valentine's Day is a killer.


You can thank me later!

Happy Valentine's day in advance!
