Do you usually get travel-sick?

Polang @tkonlinevn (6462) • Vietnam 8 Nov 10

I usually get travel-sick. So I can't travel by bus, car or plan accept I must use. I love to see many places in my country and over the world. But every time I think I must go in car or plan, I feel tired!

How adventurous are you in ordering food?

thebassdude @thebassdude (342) • Philippines 31 Oct 10

Whenever I eat out in restaurants, I tend to order the same stuff every time. It's very seldom that I go out of my way and try out the other offerings. Partly because I want to be sure that I'll enjoy what I ordered, and also...

do you believe in that? I think it is quite true.. because during meals not only do you eat but you also bond with each other and talk about anything else..it keeps you closer. That is why as much as possible I see to it that my...

charylady yes i do believe that bonding at mealtimes is very important. it has now become a luxury since many parents are often too busy with work and can no longer find the time to come home for meals. both parents and children are missing out on the opportunity to get...

What are your ways of getting slim?

santosmarichris @santosmarichris (1849) • Philippines 16 Oct 10

Here's mine: 1. Take off pork and beef in your diet. 2. More fruits and vegetables. 3. Snack only on fruits and sandwiches. 4. Stay away from sweets. Here's what I have read recently: 1. Buy a New Bra. The goal is to...

charylady yes we tend to accumulate too many clothes and it's a good idea to go through your closet or drawers periodically and "dispose" of some of them. you'd be surprised that you really do not use all of the clothes you have. that being said, it's really hard to...

What about a 16 yr old girl falling in love with a 60 yr old man? Is that love?

bingskee @bingskee (5234) • Philippines 10 Sep 10

Do not tell me you haven't hear of such affair? There are girls who falls in love with mature men. As to what reason, I really do not know. Actually, I wonder if one can call it love? Is it true that age does not matter in...

charylady it could be that the partied involved have found what each was looking for. there are many kinds of love and it could be hard to really define the kind of love that might exist between two people.

House Wife Skills, Do you Think it is Important for Girls to Still Learn These?

Aurone @Aurone (4755) • United States 22 Jul 10
