Another week ends, and the temperature is rising. I was walking to work and notice how visually spectacular the green and lush grass growing from the dark damp winter top soil. How beautiful is the fresh spring grass, it just makes you want to pull up alongside a park bench and watch the word go by. However not all of us have the luxury of slouching back to gaze into the blue skies of Sydney. So I hope everyone is enjoying the current blogs of late and I do thank you for reading these blog.
I have noticed that my blogs are usually aimed at the male audience but tonight my blog is a gift to all the ladies to enjoy if your out there reading it.

Firstly, I apologise if guys keep asking you out, coming around with polished cars and asking you out on dates to a remote location. But, I give credit where credit is due and say good on you for saying yes to that first date. Now here are some tips to guarantee to help you protect your heart and find the perfect man who you will spend the rest of your days with, a man who will make you laugh so hard you'll cry and at the same time your abs will get a working, so you'll have a flat stomach simply by just enjoying life.

Rule 1, Be wise, protect your heart.
Always, always be yourself, be clear and concise of what you want from a man. If you dont' know what you want Let Truong tell you. Firstly, he has to have a job or some sort of career path happening for him. If that being running alongside the garbage bin at 4am, or a sheep and grain farmer from country Victoria. If he has a job and can pay for a date from start to finish you can be assure he can provide you with a cave, kitchen, and maybe a clawfoot bath tub made of cast iron I know for a fact every womans dream is to have a Kitchen with all the Miele appliances complete with granite benchtops and a colonial style bathroom with an cast iron bath tub.
So on that first date remember to ask all these questions straight away, don't be fooled with all the sweet talking, because even if he is a mute and has a job you know he can provide a C>K>B. Oh if you are wondering, "I am only in uni or school can I go out on dates?" Well if your date has met these criterias ofcourse you can so long as he has met the criteria. IE Job, C>K>B.


Rule 2 Be prudent, beware of sweet talking.
So over the winter men have been reading the According to Truong blog and now he is confident with his ability to woo and court, using similes, blended with a hint of wit and toasted together with in offensive humour. BEEP BEEP BEEP, these are the warning bells, the only major fault, (warning!!!they may have other faults) in a woman is her inability to graciously avoid flattery. I have heard from various women "FLATTERY only gets you so far" So if your heart is not protected from flattery, wear a blouse close to the neckline so this will help direct his gaze towards your eyes. If he is looking at you as a women and not an object your date will go smoothly.


Rule 3. Have high standards.
It is good to expect more from men, because they are not the sharpest tool in God's shed when it comes to understanding their opposite and equal women. So if you expect your man to buy dinner, and dress in nice clothes once in a while then he will generally do it. However you the woman must have expectations. Go home write a list and see what a man can do to meet those expectations. The key to high expectations is to have high ones, and be surprised that they are being marked off. Secondly, don't expect all your expectations to be filled straight away because you'll be freaked out how much the guy knows about you and you'll be turned off. It takes a whole life time to work out what you expect because a woman's mind is base on emotions so please use your superior intellect and expect the un-expected, high expectations. In summary, have high stadards so you'll get treated as a Princess.


Rule 4. Have fun finally.
Courtship is fun, it is meant to make you laugh, it is meant to be an enjoyable time, so it's best and wise to be doing things on dates rather than sitting their aimlessly. So always expect the man to have a plan, that includes activities then some down time, and then end it. If you request to be dropped home earlier, it will make the second date a much more pleasant experience. If you have gone out on a second date and it isn't fun, can that man.
So you're probably wondering, "I am a girl and there a few men asking me out at the same time, what should I do?" Well my personal opinion is that if 5 guys ask you out, then be clear with all your suitors that you have a few dates planned and many suitors waiting. So you're looking for friendship first. Don't get caught up with just one guy. Of of those 5 guys one will shine through! Yes you are worth every single ounce of frustration that guy is going through.

Well there you have it, some simple and proven facts to aid you in your courtship. Ladies go out and enjoy being beautiful, young, happy, and be admired because with out you the world wouldn't be the same. Gosh this week has gone so quickly and work has allowed everyone to home early so I am taking my beloved LG out to dinner can't wait.(Hope your happy that you got a mention hehehehe)

What to do in Sydney this weekend, if your into Asian culture, then you are aware that Mid-Autumn festival is occurring in most Asian cultures these upcoming weeks. It is a good opportunity to explore the cultures and their individual cuisine. A great place to go this week is Cabramatta, catch the train, bring 50 dollars and enjoy it all. Smell, taste, see and feel what Cabramatta has to offer. Oh and Chris, David and Anthony my work mates, thanks for helping me to work you guys.

Deo Gratias.

The pick up series according to Truong. Broadcast three

Dear readers, I apologise for not broadcasting over the last few weeks. But I have a valid excuse for it. I broke my leg and the thing is, I needed surgery so now I am bionic with upgraded titanium parts. I just want to thank everyone for helping me out. So I would like to welcome you all to another week of According to Truong. For this week special I would like to talk about communication.

So over the past months you' have been reading my blog and acted upon it. That's wonderful news, congratulations you have a beautiful girlfriend now, Hold on a minute, the girl is way out of your league so your punching way above your weight. Your becoming complacent and your confidence has gone through the roof. Your a average guy so you think you can always do better. Let me just stop you right there, you'll break a leg and realise you can't walk away from what matters most in a relationship.
Apologising, I know men aren't very good at talking and resolving issues so I will guide you through the whole process where your beloved will feel special and you'll get a whole lot of loving when the process of all over.
Lets go through a typical scenario here, your day is going fine the sun is shining, your car is polished and your all ready to take your lady out. But hang on, your quarrelling, over some or all of the evils of a relationship, IE jealousy, mistrust, and anger. Since your the man, you put on your deep and powerful voice and bark at your girlfriend. Spilling out a whole bean stalk of hurtful green, blue, and purple beans. Now your a real Jack. Gee that felt good, but was it good for your relationship? Are these magic beans which will help your relationship grow, or will it lead you to the jealousy bearded giant, or the anger troll, and the distrustful leprechaun.

You might say, sure we argue all the time but a relationship is about love and understanding you can't go out with someone who you argue with. I know men have a relative scale when it comes to anger but if your an extreme case you seriously need to work on how you manage this, if not I am sorry to say this, your only friend will be the lonely man on the moon. And you only get to see this man a few times a year. Lets try to avoid that hey.

Rule No 1.
Its has happen what do i do Truong? Firstly, no matter what apologise as soon as possible, don't leave it more than 3 days before you swallow your pride because women don't like to wait a long time. They will hate it if you don't realise your mistake quickly. So time is of importance here.

Rule No 2.
No matter what they say, a gift to say your sorry is extremely important depending on the severity of the mistake. Lets say, it was a small mistake and you apologise quickly less than 24hours, flowers will be adequate, but if it has taken you over 3 days, it will have to cost you flowers, chocolates, perfume, plus an expensive dinner probably in a ethnic restaurant maybe. So it's best to realise your mistake and show remorse.

Rule No 3.
You must sit down and be prepared to listen to everything she has to say, and agree with them all. This is going to take at least 2 hours so don't drink or eat before hand because you don't want to be going to the bathroom in this time. You need to realise she's going to explode in words from the bottom of her soul and you need to say yes to everything.

The final rule, No 4.
Always make a resolution and stick with it. You need to understand that a girl wants to be assure you have learnt something from your major argument and make reparations for it not to occur again. For example you need to work out a way to control your temper and go through the steps with her to insure that it won't happen again.

Phew, yup wipe that sweat from your brow because communication is very difficult between a man and a woman but if you can communicate properly you will be able to keep that relationship on the right tracks and will be able to sail through the most rough seas that are out to swallow you up.
But the old man always thought of her as feminine and as something that gave or withheld great favors, and if she did wild or wicked things it was because she could not help them. The moon affects her as it does a woman, he thought. The Old Man and the Sea


So you might be asking what I have been doing over the last few weeks. Well I have had so much time to reflect on life. The most important lesson I have learnt from this period is how to listen to the advice of others. Secondly, life is short but you must not rush important things especially marriage. Marriage must not be rush because planning a wedding is a big task but remember it's not a business contract but a contract of love. To me love is getting a nice hot meal once in a while, or a going out for a nice drive, and some kissing time. But the deep side of love is knowing someone out there is thinking of you, is worried about you and wants to be with you.

That's enough sensitive talk for one blog session lets see what is on offer this weekend in Sydney.
At the moment, winter is ending and spring is just about to be blossom. Therefore, a man must know there will be 4 seasons in one day. If you are keen on doing an outdoor pursuit do so in the morning when the wind will be calm. Maybe a trip to the various outdoor markets in Sydney and breakfast. I do feel like a nice bacon and egg roll this week. If your going to sleep in, then be prepared for a unpredictable weather so go for a nice drive up the coast to Newcastle.
If a drive is not for you, how about watching our favourite action heroes of the 1990's in the movie the Expendables. But if it's the girls turn to choose a movie, I am sorry to say this but you better head to One of the Dendy cinemas, most likely the one at Circular Quay. Sorry guys you just have to go.



Finally, I would like to thank you everyone for your patience and waiting for this blog, I hope you all have a great weekend.
Deo Gratias.
