CUCG 2013/2014 GRADUATION VIDEO

Graduation Day is the climax of a dream.A parental dream that began when a child is born, And their hope come true it would seem, A triumph held after periods of forlorn, A feeling of pride and euphoria years awayFor a daughter or son - Graduation Day.

It is a peak of success for the graduate, Not only for the graduate but parents too.A joyful event after many years they had to wait, Realizing the glorious thrill of a dream come true, A genuine smile accompanied by a deep sigh, Often a handkerchief in hand as the class goes by.

Graduation is a deserving, hard earned goalWith mortarboard and gown as foretold, A gratifying service of the mind and soulIn a simple and beautiful sheepskin toldThat the graduate fulfilled the educational rule. At last, for the mother and father, a dream come true.Graduation Day!

1) Understand Who A Gentle Man is:

A gentleman isn't just someone who can dresses to kill, or controls the things around him and has the ladies at his disposal.
No! a gentleman as the name implies, is a man who is gentle in everything, his walking, his talking, dressing, and most if all gentle on the ladies.

2) Dress like a gentleman

 A gentle man dressing is simple, classy and is very fashionable. Ladies are tired of seeing guys rocking their denim pants with big shirts and huge chains on the neck like dogs (no offense) but ladies want to see those guys dressed on some nice sleek pants, good suspenders, nice belts, good watches and lots more.

3) Be Generous With Compliments

Ladies love compliments, say beautiful things to make them smile, make a little body contact whilst making a compliment, stare right into their eyes whilst complimenting and make sure she blushes before you stop.

4) Know the VALUE OF A WOMAN

Women are like glass cups and men have slippery hands. Women are beautiful, fragile, loving, sweet, but confused, naive, hurt and sometimes desperate.
A woman can make you and break you, she can make u feel dead or make u feel alive.
Knowing the value of a woman makes u know how to handle her.

5) Treat Your Lady Like A Queen

Buy her gifts, give her roses, massage her feet after she has had a long day, buy her perfumes, call her sweet names, let the whole world know she is your woman and stand for her.


 6) Be Intelligent

Being intelligent is very important because you need to be very calculative and know how to handle people and situations and still be gentle at the same time.

7) Be helpful and generous

Try to be very helpful and effective when you need to and also try to be as generous as you can, generous people are loved by many and God blesses generous people.

8) Stay humble

Less bragging, let whatever it is speak for itself. Be real and be yourself, do not try to feel like you are all the 'shit'. People get irritated by that.

9) Be a good cook

Well it's been noticed on many different occasions by different people that men who cook, know how to take good care of their ladies. Many ladies love men that can prepare a good meal.

10) Stay fit

Good physical, mental and psychological exercises are good for the body and mind, and gives you a clearer mind to think critically and dynamically

Selena Gomez Secretly Spent Time In Rehab

Actress/Singer Selena Gomez secretly completed a two weeks stay in rehab last month.
The singer checked in to Arizona's Dawn at the Meadows facility for an undisclosed reason, though her rep confirmed it was "not for substance abuse." This was revealed on Wednesday (February 5).

 On the same day the reports surfaced, one of the singer's BFFs weighed in with some words of support.

"Weakness is living in denial," Demi Lovato wrote on Wednesday without naming names. "Only the strongest people ask for help."

Gomez was reportedly not treated for a drugs and alcohol issue. A spokesperson for the singer explained, "Selena voluntarily spent time at Meadows but not for substance abuse."

A source told E! News that Gomez decided to get some help after pictures of her riding segways with former boyfriend Justin Bieber just after the new year.

"The last straw was seeing them on the Segways," the unnamed source told E! "She needed to work on her emotional life. She needed to learn tools on how to deal with Justin and letting go of that relationship ... This is the first time she's ever taken the time to deal with issues, to deal with herself, with a therapist."

Popular Rapper DMX To Fight George Zimmerman

Its official, DMX who was selected out of 15, 000 applicants and Zimmerman will battle it out in the boxing ring after the rapper was announced as Zimmerman’s opponent for his upcoming celebrity boxing match. 

CNN reports that Zimmerman and Dark Man X are set to fight each other in a boxing match put together by Celebrity Boxing impresario Damon Feldman. Zimmerman recently claimed a desire to get into boxing, claiming that he’d be willing to fight anyone (“even black people”). Of the many, many offers Feldman got for that fight, he ended up settling on DMX, who was maybe the most intimidating rapper in the world in 1998.

Read more from TMZ:

As we first reported, DMX promised to massacre Zimmerman in the ring if he got the chance. To be exact, he said, “I am going to beat the living f**k out him … I am breaking every rule in boxing to make sure I f**k him right up.” He then said he’d literally piss on George’s face.

Zimmerman might actually have a chance though — as we reported, he’s been training pretty hard for months … oh yeah, and he’s only 30 years old. DMX is 43.

According to TMZ, the boxing match will be 3 rounds, with the date, time, and location being announced at a news conference next Wednesday.

Start placing your bets now guys...who will you be backing...hahaaha

$25 Million Estate to Paul Walker's Daughter

In Paul Walker’s will, he assigned his entire estate to his 15-year-old daughter, Meadow who moved to California to stay with him two years ago. The late actor, had assets worth $25 million, including a $10 million home, according to Walker's will, which was filed in Santa Barbara, California, on Jan. 28.

Walker is said to have prepared the document in 2001, the same year that "The Fast and the Furious" was released. Because he had already saved some money from his work in teen movies like "Varsity Blues" and "She's All That."

Walker appointed his father, also named Paul, to manage his affairs, and his mother, Cheryl, to serve as the guardian of his daughter, whom he shared with ex-girlfriend Rebecca McBrain.

RIP Paul....
