Goodbye My Long Hair: Why?!?

Shavkat @Shavkat (140375) • Philippines 26 May 17

"Can men wear long hair?" Well, I do. Now, I don't. I decided to have a clean haircut today. I can't bear the heat in Manila. I had such a long hair iaiming the trendy look way back in 1970s. When I was a toddler, I had a portrait...

mikalf It really depends how you do the upkeep of the hair. There are some men with long hair who looks so dirty with it because they don't take care of the long hair. So I'd rather they just cut the hair then.

mikalf I don't really exercise in the gym. What I do is I like walking a lot. So instead of taking a cab or driving, if I can manage walking to the place that I need to go...I go and choose walking. I find going to the gym boring and uninteresting. I know some people...

Do you always wear the seat belt?

The Invisible Man @TheInvisibleMan (17597) 24 May 17

Wearing your seat belt is such a simple act, isn't it? Sometimes I wonder why so many people forget to use it? So many traffic accidents could be prevented with this attitude. Do you always wear yours?

21 responses •

mikalf Yes. Even when I was a child, I'd automatically wear it. I didn't know then that it was for safety but I just did. So it has already become a habit for me, to put on the seatbelt as soon as I get in the car. My parents don't like putting them on though....

Our electric bill doubled this month

aubrey @averygirl72 (38526) • Philippines 24 May 17

I didn't expect that using aircon is really that expensive. We've been using our air conditioner every night and sometimes at noontime. Our electric bill is usually 1,500 pesos but now it reach 3,200 pesos. I thought about 500...

mikalf I understand it's summer time now in the Philippines so it is a must for the air conditioner. If you have the timer with your air conditioner, I usually turn it to the number of hours that I think I would need. So it will automatically turn off when I am...

Are you content with your life? Are you happy?

AbbyGreenhill @AbbyGreenhill (45494) • United States 20 May 17

There was a time I would have said 'no' to those questions, but that was many years ago when I was in a relationship that probably would have been considered abuse. Not physical, but verbal and emotional. Back in those days I...

Have you ever bit your own tongue?

The Invisible Man @TheInvisibleMan (17597) 19 May 17

This must be the one of the most annoying "pain" in the world, isn't it? Always causes a small and uncomfortable shock and it's impossible not to make an ugly face when that happens. Has your tongue ever suffered from it?...

The Horse @TheHorse (224785) • Walnut Creek, California 17 May 17

Have we become dependent on Google?

mikalf I've done it once. But the things said were very vague so I don't really know if anything came out of it. Maybe I just went to the wrong person? Or it could also be that I was not able to take note of all the things that were said.
