jsumbing I only did it once and that was back when I was still part of our operations (agent) just so I can go to an out of town pool party (Pansol) with some friends...I'm on the mid-shift that time so I thought my absences wouldn't really affect our staffing. There...

Fate/Zero

secretbear @secretbear (19448) • Philippines 3 Dec 11

Anyone here watching this anime? I just started watching and I got a bit interested. The plot is not new, the lines are repetitive, sometimes the story is confusing, but how the story would end interests me a lot. Fate/Zero is...

Do you get scared in flights?

crazyabs69 @crazyabs69 (185) • India 12 Sep 11

I will be traveling for the first time in flight. Do you get scared while taking off or while landing? Or not scared at all. Even when traveling for 1st time?

secretbear @secretbear (19448) • Philippines 11 Sep 11

I'm going to be on a field work again tomorrow and we'll be going to one of our project sites which require us to travel by boat. I like riding a boat especially in the morning because of the cold wind in the sea and riding a...

At the office: How many times do you wash your coffee mug?

secretbear @secretbear (19448) • Philippines 7 Sep 11

I have my own coffee mug at the office. I think most of us who work in an office have their own. I only wash my mug at the end of the day. For the whole day I'm using it, I will only wash it in the afternoon before...
