Minesky Most of the time, the people who negatively reacts to this relationship is not the pair, but the family, friends and the religious group they are members in. Initial fear is caused by the concern that the other has no respect on certain practices that other...

Do you have Emergency Money?

Payout @payout (3794) • United States 14 Sep 11

I work in a bank and see many accounts that's my job. I'll have say some people are ready for trouble and others are just not ready at all but I know it depends on the situation. I always recommend a savings account or even a CD...

Minesky I feel the same way, working to pay bills. What I am trying to do now, is that during paydays, I really need to allocate even 5% of my money to another account, and try to forget about it. My problem right now, I can do the deposit, but later when I need...

. BLARING MUSIC OF THOSE JEEPNEYS and BUSES

rebel_woman06 @SIMPLYD (90721) • Philippines 13 Sep 11

It’s nice to ride a jeep or a bus where there is music.But when the music is so loud it is already annoying. I had the experience of riding one jeepney with a blaring music on the way to work, once. I was silent, but annoyed....

Minesky I think my mood will be based on the music he would be playing LOL But realistically speaking, music should not be too loud that it will lessen the sensitivity of the driver to his surroundings. It can actually cause accidents! Where I am living, not...

Minesky Clothes contribute a great deal on how a person looks. Remember, Kim Chiu portrayed a man in the series, if she had a boob job, that would be a problem indeed!!! LOL

Minesky I just came back, my last activity was December 2006. One thing that triggered me to come back is the consistent emails I still receive summarizing discussions from my interests, as well as the internet access is available! :)

Minesky Could it be that this situation is just a tip of the iceberg? We do not know exactly the grounds on why the grandmother will charge her daughter in law, but not her daughter on babysitting their children... I do agree that grandparents should not charge any...

Friend Damaged my Macbook

jadking @jadking (69) • Philippines 1 Aug 11

Hi! Recently, my friend accidentally spilled coffee on my macbook. Of course, since it's his fault, he'll have to pay for it. We both agreed on that. So, I took him to the macstore, and together, we surrendered my macbook to...

Minesky Seriously, a Macbook is a Macbook. Since he agreed to pay for it, he should already be expecting from you the bill for the repair. On his part, there is no other way for him to try to get out of this mess. To be polite or non bullying, I guess you can just...

Minesky Hi stephwrites! You know, I am quite curious on why the daughter made the decision on not to marry the baby's father. I see it quite brave on her part. The girl may have seen a quality of the guy that is obvious showing that he is not fit to be a father at...

Minesky Hi jimnemesis! I do agree with your statement, and that statement also has a downside, it can also be "To get the job, it's what you know. To stay in the job, it's who you know" There are some companies, wherein the work environment is more on how the...

Minesky Please do not help them by giving money to them. You can help by donating to charitable institutions that can help them. If you do not give money to them on the streets, hopefully they would stop staying there and go to the proper groups to help them....

Muelitz @Muelitz (1592) • Canada 17 May 09
