Can You Listen to Music While Reading A book?

zhaychel @zhaychel (610) • United Arab Emirates 10 Nov 08

My mom do this. She listens to classical music while reading her books. I can't help but be amazed on how my mother could grasp two activities all together. I asked her once if she still can concentrate the thought of the book...

jedd_opalla I do that all the time. I think my mind had gotten used to listening to music while doing almost anything. I study while listening to music, I do chores while listening. I even listen to music to fall asleep. I think that my mind had really adapted to having...

jedd_opalla I believe that everything happens for a reason. And I also believe that whatever we do, we will be repaid for it accordingly. As for beggars who ask for money and the likes, I had long given up on giving to them. because I have seen some that are careless....

jedd_opalla I put it most of the time inside my bag, because I think it's the safest place for it.. I get sort of clumsy sometimes, so I wouldn't risk it falling from my grip. I don't think I'd be comfortable with it hanging on my neck, so there is stays in my bag.

jedd_opalla I love poetry. I used to write poetry, but I stopped. I stopped. I like the works of Edgar Allan Poe, poetry or not. I like his style. Poetry gives me something to be fond of. It's like having a little secret all to yourself, and even if you lay it out in...

jedd_opalla Like in the movie, I wouldn't want to really destroy any of my memories, no matter how sad or disappointing those were. I want to enjoy every moment as it happens, and i wouldn't want to consider erasing them. There are times when I know it's better to just...

Why do people break rules? are rules meant for breaking?

mercuryman3a @mercuryman3a (2477) • India 11 Oct 08

Some people have scant regard for rules and some love to break rules as thoughthyget a thrill out of it. Iheard of a friend of mine who went to Singapore just to spit on the road, as spitting on the road is banned there and a fine...

jedd_opalla I once heard of a saying that said that unspoken words are better than imposed ones. I think there is a tendency for people to show that they have their freedom and thus acts with their blind justification of their freedom. There is always something that...

Why is Everyone Breaking Up?

Shar19 @Shar19 (8231) • United States 11 Oct 08

Is there something in the air that I don't know about? In the past few months I know of three couples who are breaking up/divorcing. This to me is very shocking. In all three of the situations someone was cheating. Why don't...

jedd_opalla As times change, people are more prone to distractions. And sometimes their decisions are not that logical when it comes to deciding on the important things. There is always the case that someone will be cheating because he/she thinks that he/she deserves...

jedd_opalla I believe in that, too. I believe that there is a reward or punishment for anything we do to or for others. There is always that possibility that what you do for others would be repaid equivalently. It's just a matter of time before we get the equivalent...

Sreekala @Sreekala (34312) • India 11 Oct 08

jedd_opalla We have those kinds of flavorings, too. As for me, when I cook, I put a little amount of MSG to add flavor to the food. Or sometimes the traditional salt-and-pepper combination. There are also times when I use fish sauce which is common here in our country, or...
