6 Tricks to Impress the New Girl Next Door Posted: 07 Dec 2013 03:02 AM PST Unless you are a movie star or the heartthrob for girls, impressing the new girl next door can be an uphill task. It's tough to gauge the likes and dislikes of a girl whom you have known for long, leave aside someone who has just arrived next door. Then, how should one move ahead? Approaching someone new and unknown is challenging, but there's lots of ways to get around. There's plenty of ways that can wow the girl next door. Out of the two thousand ways in which you might want to impress her, here are 6 tricks that have often worked well. Check them out as given below. 6. Impressive Introduction Greeting a new person with politeness and gratitude is the right way to begin. It's an asking task to go ahead and greet the newly arrived bombshell in your neighborhood, but it's all about making the hay when the sun shines. While she is still new to the surroundings and requires a helping hand, you can make a place for yourself in her heart. It just requires a few of your encouraging words and some help; rest fits in place itself. 5. Calling for Dinner There is nothing better than calling her up for a dinner to your house, provided she approves of you as a friend at the first place. If you get a friendly nod from her, treat her out on dinner at the nearest restaurant one with a romantic ambiance. Nothing could be better if you can also invite her to get her family for the dinner. 4. Poetry always works Most females have a keen sense for poetic words, no matter how distant from reality she is. It may not be difficult penning down some lines in her praise, and reciting them with certainty will make her feel even more special. In addition, beware of stealing famous quotes and poetic lines from her favorite romantic fiction series (maybe Mills and Boons) as this can be a big turn off for her once she realizes they've been copied. Girls love originality and this is what you should yearn for especially when trying to impress her. You can share your feelings while walking with her (of course her dog will be following you from behind) on a romantic windy evening. 3. Her Pet Must Be Your Concern from Day 1 Girls normally share a strong bond with their pets if they have one. If you show even a bit of concern for her little puppy, things can blossom out for the good in future. Girls generally represent varied kinds of likes and dislikes in comparison to guys and hence, must be treated differently. For them, their pets (be it dog or cat) are their life and if you can care for them, nothing is better. But, you must not look too synthetic and thespian in doing so. 2. Befriend Her Younger Brother Girls are very protective by nature and take good care of their family. Therefore, it's best considered to befriend the younger brother of the girl next door, if she has one. This is the easiest way to learn and track more details about her. But, it's important you don't express your secret motive to her brother, as even the slightest of to them can ruin all your chances, despite having the best intentions. 1. Gifts can do the Magic There is rarely a girl on this planet who doesn't like gifts. The fairer sex is penchant for gifts and hence, you must consider seriously if want to impress the girl next door. However, you must know what interests her the most and then decide the choice of your gift. But, you must not limit yourself to just chocolates – be more creative with gift ideas. It's advised that you accompany her for shopping and gift her with a nice dress and surprise at the end of the day. But, just make sure the dress fits her well and matches her taste.

7 Signs You Need to Visit Ophthalmologist Right Now Posted: 07 Dec 2013 02:44 AM PST Eyes are the most precious gifts of God to humans and hence, should be treasured with utmost care. It's only because of them that you can value the real beauty of nature and other splendid things around you. Due to various reasons, children and adults experience poor vision. The weakening of eye sight may be caused either due to anatomical changes, eye diseases or injury to the eye. Ignoring sudden changes in your eye sight can not only even cause difficulties in carrying out daily activities, but may also be signs of other bodily conditions. It is for this reason; you need to consult a doctor at the earliest and prevent further escalation of the problem. Here are 7 signs which suggest you need to visit ophthalmologist right now. 7. Blurred Vision People suffering from blurred vision find it difficult to look clearly at distant objects or signs. There can be several reasons for this, including nearsightedness (myopia) or farsightedness (hyperopia) as the top reasons for a blurry vision. It may also be caused due to astigmatism, which occurs due to an abnormality in the shape of the cornea. Therefore, you must visit your ophthalmologist at the earliest, before the problem gets any worse and affects your overall vision. 6. Difficulty in Making Distinction between Colors The other most concerning signal is difficulty in differentiating between colors either during day time or at night. This is also known as color blindness. The problem is generally reported in males. In females the disease is caused due to ocular disorders. And, if you struggle to differentiate between colors in faint light, it may be a sign of night blindness. In both cases, you must consult an ophthalmologist and optometrist to learn about the real cause. 5. Sudden Flashes of Light If you are struggling with sudden onset of flashes of light combined with black floating spots then visit an ophthalmologist at the earliest. The problem may indicate a chance of retinal detachment. The disorder can be rectified through surgery. The problem if not treated on time may cause severe consequences later. 4. Continual Redness in the Eyes Redness in the eyes may be seasonal or due to certain allergies. Most of the eye allergies subside on their own if you maintain eye hygiene. But, if your eyes remain itchy & puffy and keep draining out water, there is something to worry about. The persistent redness may be caused due to rupture of blood vessels in the eye region or infection known as pink eye or conjunctivitis. Viral and bacterial forms of pink eye are dangerous and must be cured on time. You must maintain high level of sanitation when suffering from such a disease. 3. Constant Pain in the Eyes Eye pain can be of various types – dull or sharp, internal or external, stabbing or throbbing. In case pain in your eyes doesn't subside with time, you must visit a doctor. It may be caused due to swelling of some inner part of your eyes. If you experience pain while rotating your eyeballs, visit to a doctor is a must. 2. Burning Sensation Eye burning can cause serious hardships if the problem persists for long.  There are various reasons which cause the problem including allergy, dryness, tiredness, vision stress (mostly caused due to spending long hours on computer) or combination of all the above mentioned reasons. If your daily life activities are being hampered due to the disorder, you must look to find a cure at the earliest. Eye burning can easily be treated with lubrication eye drops and taking rest. Doctors even advice to use cool and moist compresses. 1. Nausea & Headache If you are suffering from nausea and headache for a long time, Glaucoma maybe the disease that is troubling you. It is an acute medical illness, which needs prompt medical attention. In case you are up with persistent eye pain, nausea, vomiting, eye swelling, headaches, rainbow rings around the eyes and also suffering with an ambiguous sight then it's the right time to book an appointment with your ophthalmologist.
