lvap0628 Eating balut is an acquired taste, I guess. Whenever I buy some, I always ask the vendor to give me "balut sa puti" which has a smaller chick inside still wrapped inside a white membrane. And what I do is I close my eyes whenever I get to the chick part, dip...

Do you eat with your Stomach or with your Eyes?

LightninStrike @LightninStrike (5915) • Saint Vincent And The Grenadines 7 May 08

I obviously feel hungry now and then as any other person, so when i feel like that i eat if it's possible. But there are times in which i feel compelled to eat something just because it looks so great that my brain knows it has to...

lvap0628 I'd say I eat with my nose. I don't rely on my eyes too much when eating because I might get disappointed (there's food that looks good but may taste blah). So for me "the nose knows." If it smells good, then it must be.

American Idol - who's going home 5/7/08

TheRealDawn @dawnald (85146) • Shingle Springs, California 7 May 08

Disagree with me if you want to, but Jason is way, way overdue for a trip home. He should have been long gone and either Carly or Michael Johns should still be there. No offense but if he doesn't go home tonight I'm going to come...

lvap0628 I totally agree with you Dawnald. I also think Jason should have been sent home weeks ago. There were better contestants than him. His "cuteness" can only go so far and I hope that America has better taste in music. If he doesn't go home this time, you can...

What's your favorite song from the carpenters?

waygamit @waygamit (20) • Philippines 20 Aug 07

Of all the songs from the carpenters, which you think is the best?

17 responses

lvap0628 It is difficult to think of a single song that would be considered the best Carpenters song. For me, it's a toss between Top of the World and Rainy Days and Mondays. And to me, Karen is such a great loss to the music industry because I cannot think of any...

lvap0628 I will try to answer as best as I can. 1. The baby is the piece of Voldemort's soul that resided in Harry when he became a Horcrux. 2. I think King's Cross was a sort of in-between worlds where Harry is not quite dead but Dumbledore can go there because...

lvap0628 There is an enchantment attached to Gryffindor's Sword. It always comes to the aid of a "true Gryffindor" who is bold and brave and daring. Neville showed all these qualities when he stood up to Voldemort. So it did not matter who had the sword, it will always...

lvap0628 I think Snape hated Harry more than he liked him. Harry looked so much like James that Snape couldn't get past that fact. The only thing that Harry reminded Snape of Lily was his green eyes "that were so like Lily Potter's." I think this is why Snape wanted to...
