I just happened to be reading an article about the tragic shooting death of a pregnant woman by her fiance's 11-year-old son. The story in itself is horrible enough, but I was stunned when I read further into the article and found...

rychelle314 Worldwise, may I clarify, Is Brown the fiance of this pregnant woman and the owner of the gun? Secondly, did the boy actually shoot him on purpose? If the parents or guardians are the owner of the gun they I believe they ought to be responsible enough to...

rychelle314 I know what you're saying. I still like telling the people I love that I do nonetheless. It's freeing and it feels good. :)

Recently in the office, there was a direction (not official or declared publicly)from the higher ups not to hire women less than 5'2 in height. I'm petite and barely 5'. Also, the average height of women in this country is 4'11....

rychelle314 I have the exact sentiments! Although my position is already stable, nonetheless I still believe that this is simply foul and bang out of order. I did voiced out this concern but as I have almost expected, it was naught.

rychelle314 Despite the provisions in our Labor Code which clearly prohibits all forms of discrimination, unfortunately, some big companies do get away with it. Also, I indicated that this direction was never publicized. Hence, it's also quite possible that our...

I have an officemate who confessed to me that he's been sustaining an online relationship with this girl. He said he feels that they have both fallen in love with each other. HOWEVER, my officemate is married and his online...

rychelle314 Hmmm... I suppose. But it's a gamble really. There are probably just as much as dating online success stories as there are failed relationships... Although I've to agree that there are more who are just for a quick online w*** and are not really entertaining...

rychelle314 Of course. I don't think it's safe to divulge personal infos on the internet especially since there are just too many scammers online. I suppose it does depend on what you're doing, whom you're talking to, etc. etc.

My partner is more than 7000 miles away from me and I keep missing him. we're trying really hard to find a way to be together but there are just too many odds against us... immigration, my career, his business, our finances etc....

rychelle314 I guess that's one of the downside of being far away.. Although I'm fortunate that my partner has always been consistent. I'm looking forward to be with him earlier next year - hopefully! :) Thanks :)

rychelle314 It is embarrassing really but it's a fact of life I suppose. People swear, we get pissed off, we say and do a lot of stuffs we really shouldn't be doing. I don't want to encourage my daughter so I think right now, all I can do is guide her and let her...

rychelle314 Exactly. There are just too much extraneous variables to "filter." I reckon all we can really do is make them understand/realize which to take and which to just ignore. Thanks for the reply. :)

rychelle314 I know what you mean. A lot of people says I look better with my contacts rather than my old glasses, so even though it's a bit of a pain to remember lubricating them every now and then, I still use it most of the time. I still use my glasses though. But only...
