Pasig City

I was half-awaked on the couch when my sibling got a call. He then offered it to my mother. Anyhow it worked out that the call was for me, and my mother *with a thin tone of fervor from her voice gave me the telephone and whispered "for you, from a US based organization".

The woman whom I conversed with let me know that she got my telephone number from my past school. (Why they're doling out our information?) And blah…  a great deal of talking really. Her voice was excessively delicate; she was talking unremittingly as though she was perusing a script. The words that stood out just enough to be noticed were US based organization, 8-12 hrs work time acquiring 15,000-20,000, be in brilliant cool clothing, the time of gathering will be 6:30 pm tom at the said venue and "knowing you're an expert, we know you won't wipe out at last of your arrangement" – those things…  extremely infectious in reality.

I did a few explores on the web and discovered comparable stories dated 2 years prior. "Nuskin, Synergy One Global" is the name of the said organization. Some gave inspirational viewpoints, telling everybody the organization helped them as it were. Furthermore many individuals additionally gave their negative inputs.

You can read the strings here and here.

I chose to blacklist the gathering I was saved into. The extent that I can recollect that, its similar to extortion issues of "Legacy". Few of my school companions were a piece of it; they welcomed me to go to one of their gatherings, in the wake of listening to cloth to-wealth testimonials from group pioneers you wouldn't be astounded in the event that you said "yes" to them and be a piece of their legacy forever gather. It's a business of immediate offering, and the more you captivate individuals to join the gathering, the more you addition cash. It is recognizably known as systems administration. Well for me, on the off chance that it worked for some individuals, then great! Hazard = joining the cash yet in the event that it wouldn't, there is the potential misfortune.

By any methods, I'm not prejudging it. It's likewise an open door. Anyhow think before you captivate with these things.

Popcorn



Popcorn, also known as popping corn, is a type of corn that expands from the kernel and puffs up when heated. Corn is able to pop because, like amaranth grain, sorghum, quinoa and millet, its kernels have a hard moisture-sealed hull and a dense starchy interior. This allows pressure to build inside the kernel until explosive “pop” results. Some strains of corn are now cultivated specifically as popping corns. 

There are many techniques for popping corn. Commercial large-scale popcorn machines were invented by Charles Cretors in the late 19th century. Many types of small-scale home methods for popping corn also exist, along with prepackaged popcorn. Depending on how it is prepared and cooked, some consider it to be a health food while others caution against it for a variety of reasons. Popcorn can also have non-food applications, ranging from holiday decorations to packaging materials.

My neighbor has a shotgun mouth


I don’t mean to be mean but if you are in my situation you would probably agree that sometimes being mean is a result of irritable senses. She’s kind to me. I have no problem with that except for her mouth. The normal tone of her voice is 3x louder than a normal speaking voice, so when she speaks it’s as good as shouting effortlessly. One day, she was talking with her friend outside. Their house is in front of ours but they were talking somewhere meters away from our house. Imagine I heard all the gossips they were talking about. Argh.

Oh well, I guess it takes a lot of sensitivity to lower one’s voice especially when one already get used to it or when he/she didn’t know it at all.

So, will I take the risk of telling her about it? Ahhmm.. I don’t think I can.

Anyway, a neighborhood isn’t complete with stories like this. Her mouth indeed is a living shot gun.

Savannah Sparrow

The Savannah Sparrow (Passerculus sandwichensis) is a small American sparrow. It is the only widely accepted member of the genus Passerculus. Recent comparison of mtDNA NADH dehydrogenase subunit 2 and 3 sequences indicates that the Ipswich Sparrow, formerly usually considered a good species (as Passerculus princeps), is a well-marked subspecies of the Savannah Sparrow, whereas the southwestern subspecies should be recognized as distinct species Large-billed Sparrow (Passerculus rostratus) .
