Most Popular Cell Phones

polofield32 @polofield32 (346) • Philippines 18 Jan 08

I have always been fond of mobile phones. Everytime I go to the mall, I make sure to pay a visit to the different cellphone shops. Not that I buy everytime I go to the mall. It's just that they fascinate me very much. Based on my...

IcyCucky I think I have the same obsession as you. I like to look at the new model and colors that offered. I don't buy them. I just want to see them. Although right now, my heart is set on T-Mobile new Shadow. I have the RAZ V3, and it is very good so far. I hardly...

Stomach Flu

angelface23 @angelface23 (2494) • United States 17 Jan 08

So I got the freaking stomach flu that is going around. It started on Sunday night. I went to work and ate the salad I brought. Then I started to not feel good a little later. I manned up about it for a few hours but it didn't go...

IcyCucky The best thing for stomach flu, is drinking some ginger tea. If you don't have ginger tea, you could use some fresh ginger cooks in a cup of water. Bring it to a boil, then lets it cool off before drinking. It helps to get that nauseated feeling out of your...

IcyCucky Christmas is my favorite time of the year. (No, not the presents part of the holiday, because we have limited that down to the ground a few years ago.) I like the feelings of being in such a holy time, the spirit, and even the hustle of life. Plus, we get to...

Coralie Raia Darsey-Malloy @Perspectives (7131) • Canada 28 Nov 07

As Christmas draws near for David and I it will be the third one without my Mom. She was central to our family celebrations and kept them up even after my father died in 1998. During this time of year I find myself thinking about...

IcyCucky This Christmas marks the 20th years of my father's dead. It's still hard to go through for my family since he was the pillar of our lives. Although it is sad, we are counting our blessing anyway for being able to get together at this time of the year. My...

IcyCucky I write when I can't sleep, and if I have writer block, I would read until some thing hits me. Usually, my eyes got heavy after about 30 minutes into the reading. If I feel really really out of energy, I watch TV, and just let my body rest. What do you do when...

Series downward spiral?

groove789 @groove789 (48) • United States 6 Nov 07

IcyCucky Ok, here is my two cents: I am loosing interest in watching this show too. It was horrible so far. I don't like Lexi character because she annoys me with how she's constantly after Meredith and seems like almost begging to exist. C'mon, be your own person!...

IcyCucky I hate throwing food away too. So to ease my guilty conscience, I usually keep them in the refrigerator for 2-3 days, and then throw out if I didn't eat it before the time allowed. Like you, the foods often got pushed all the way in the back of the fridge,...

IcyCucky It must had been an exciting night to meet those writers, not to mention talking to them. I had a chance to meet one of the authors in Michigan before. She write picture books for children, and I got to talk to her too. It was a thrill for me to hear the...

IcyCucky I want to share your frustrations because I had read a few posts from you, and felt the same way about a certain people. Although I have not experienced the same thing, but those people bother me just as the same. Some have very lame humor, and some have no...

IcyCucky This is sad! He is unlike other celebrities, who treat their dogs so lavishing with expensive things. All the animals should be removed from his home, and he should never be allowed to have any pet at all. If he doesn't love them or care for them, he should...

How Often Do You Rate Articles on Helium.com?

sumimasen @sumimasen (644) • United States 5 Jun 07

I usually spend about an hour writing an article and then 15 minutes rating an article. If you don't rate articles, then you don't get your articles rated. I think they back-log all the rating so that the more you rate, the...

IcyCucky I rate once in a while, I think about every other day, until the subject bored me, then I stop. I believe rating has something to do with earning your pennies too. I haven't been on Helium this last month because the kids went back to school and I just got...

peavey @peavey (16936) • United States 15 Sep 07

Do you knit more when the weather is cool or cold? I find it hard to really get going when it's hot, but when it starts to cool off in the fall, I start getting all these ideas I want to make!

IcyCucky Yes, I do. Something about cool air that make me want to knit. It is fun to do. I am like you, ideas flow into my head easier. I like to make hats, scarves, and mittens. I found it very relaxing. I bring it every where with me, at the soccer field, practices,...

Are daughters or sons easier to raise?

clamarco808 @clamarco808 (312) • United States 13 Sep 07

I come from a family of 5 children. I have 4 children of my own now, 2 boys & 2 girls. I seriously believe that the boys are way easier than the girls. It's not because of the whole thing with girls being more expensive. I just...

IcyCucky I think so too, boys are easier to raise. They are less moody and easily let things go than girl. I have 2 sons and one daughter. At one point in the girls' life, especially in teenager years, they are just simply nasty with their personality, but they do calm...
