I had an odd experience in 7th grade. I was living in Mexico at the time, but I knew English better than anyone would over there because I had lived in the US since I was in 3rd grade. In the English class, which bored me, I used...

rhilanthos I've experienced this during the time I was in a government-sponsored school here in the Philippines. I had to endure 4 years of my high-school life with the same english teacher who pronounces "pen" as "pin". You could see how much I loath her when she...

rhilanthos Have you tried to ask your partner/husband for help? It may be a small matter of trying to relax and getting a break from the daily stresses of life. Do not ever treat your children with disrespect like that, it can affect how they behave when they grow up....

Secrets...Do you wish to keep them?

kritipen @kritipen (4082) • United States 18 Jan 07

For me keeping secrets are a big burden. I have to ultimately share them with someone or the other. I cannot keep them for too long..... either mine or others. Secrets make you always think about them and somehow one can never...

mango_tart55 @mango_tart55 (26) • Philippines 18 Jan 07

it is a full time job loving someone, you give yourself, the whole you, and yet sometimes they fail to reciprocate the love you show to them. it is sometimes unfair to the other party because there is no assurance that your love...

rhilanthos Do not sacrifice everything for the name of love Jen. Give time for yourself and what you love to do. Do not expect to much when loving since many men (take it from me) are sometimes tempted hence when you experience a heartbreak, it won't be painful. I see...

rhilanthos I agree with you but that is just one habit to stop being sick all the time. Some other factors that affect a person's ability to get diseases are diet, genetics, lifestyle and psychoemotional attitude. Yep, you heard me right. Have you heard of getting a...
