jdex_143 @jdex_143 (1093) • Philippines 27 Jul 11

I just thought of this when suddenly I felt guilty of not being a good daughter to my parents. :( I can easily say I love you to my boyfriend but not to my mother, personally. I don't why I just don't have the heart to say...

csrthacker I tell my parents I love them nearly every day. We have always been a family that is very free with our affection. At every parting, we hug and say "I love you." I know there are many families who aren't as vocal about their feelings, but I don't think they...

csrthacker I adore the taste of mangos. They are so lovely and sweet. I even like the slight suggestion of pine near the peel. There is only one drawback, in my opinion -- the slipperiness makes them hard to slice. Wonderful fruit overall.

can internet replace the books in the lib?

flagella08 @flagella08 (5065) • Philippines 19 Mar 10

i believe that we can't replace printed books since they are the hard copies and we can always check on them anytime we want. the internet offers almost everything that we need to know but there are still limitations especially...

csrthacker I agree that printed books in libraries can not be replaced. The experience of reading a book -- of turning the the pages, smelling the binding glue, placing book marks, etc -- is something that can not be duplicated by the internet or a reader for e-books....

csrthacker I really love to see people smiling. It makes me feel happy, even if I am in a sour mood. Where I live (in the central Appalachian region of the U.S.), it is considered rude to not smile or speak or nod when someone makes eye contact. I've been to other parts...

csrthacker I am very sorry for your situation. It is very hard to be in a relationship with someone who has to be away from you so much. The most important thing you can do is to let him know how you feel. Tell him how much it hurts you that he seems to always choose...

csrthacker As much as I always hope for my own success, I feel happy whenever my friends succeed. I don't think there is a finite amount of success in the world to be distributed. My friends' successes in no way prevent or take away from my own. I know that the people I...

Are You A Fast Eater Or A Slow Eater?

cyrus123 @cyrus123 (6363) • United States 23 May 09

I have always been a slow eater, myself. I just never could eat fast. My parents never had any problem with me being a slow eater. They always told me it was the best way to eat. You don't get choked for one thing. You also don't...

csrthacker For me, it depends a lot on what else is going on when I sit down to eat. If I am rushed, angry or just really hungry...I tend to eat too fast. But, in a relaxed environment, I like to take plenty of time to savor the meal. I do agree that eating slowly is...

csrthacker It often depends on what reading material I have available to me in any given week. If I get a new book series, I'll probably spend any where from 6 to 14 hrs daily reading that week. Otherwise, probably only 6 hours or so for the entire week. I tend to make...

csrthacker Thanks for the Mother's Day wishes. Mother's day was pretty boring for my family. My mother was out of town. My kids made me cards and got me a potted plant, but mostly we did yard work.
