When I was a child, I loved to watch a cartoon series, Tarzan. It’s a story of a young boy who grew up in the jungle but I guess we all know who Tarzan is. Anyway, I particularly enjoyed the character of Tantor, an elephant who is a scared cat, well elephant in that case. He was always afraid of small and even big things and rarely does something that is out of his comfort zone. In one episode, Tantor had a severe eczema and he was religiously reaching to a higher ground because he believes that when he is suffering from it, a bad thing will happen. Later, there was an earthquake followed by a tsunami and his eczema was right, a bad thing was to happen. He was relieved to know that no one was hurt. I wonder if this thing happens to real life elephants. If it does, then that would be cool.

Oftentimes, when we have nothing else to do, I and my housemates end up talking with each other and pondering on some life questions. Just this lunch break, we were talking about marriage and how does it feel to be married. We were speculating on a lot of things how married people adjust themselves when living together or how are they able to deal with a lot of marital problems or if my friend will be able to deal with such problems accordingly. We usually have this some sort of intellectual discussion as a past time but once we get back on track of our busy life, our discussion ends. I think this is the reason why a lot of great minds lived long before the advent of modernization. Because man do not have anything else to do but to sit, ponder and analyze life.

LAN Gaming and SleepPosted by Vince in Fun and Entertainment, Health, Hobbies and Interest, tags: sleeping pillsLately, we have become sleep-deprived beings living together under a common roof. We usually end up sleeping at the wee hours of the night or even till dawn at around four. This is because we were hooked on playing a LAN game. After every game, we would always scream for another round until we realize that it was past our bedtime that is why we usually have a hard time sleeping. This is the reason why one of our concerned housemates gave us sleep-pills to aid us in our sleep and alleviate our agony of not being able to sleep. It helped a lot and now we can continue our nightly routine of playing the LAN game. Cheers!

Some Clean FunPosted by Vince in Health, Personal, tags: blackheads, blackheads removalWe always had a clean bad joke around the house. Whenever someone gets a serious case of blackheads, we tend to laugh at our housemate and make them realize that it is bad to have plenty of it. So, whenever I get some, I always do things that can lead to getting rid of blackheads so that my face would be free from it and I free from my housemates teases. These helped us a lot in maintaining cleanliness on our faces and develop our attitude of taking criticisms. It is fun, healthy and makes me feel I am one with the housemates. I was invited to a baby shower several weeks ago by my high school friend. Her baby was very cute and healthy and was an entertainment icon. Her baby was so jolly that she never failed to put a smile on all the visitors. I approached my friend and asked her how was she able to bore a child like her. She told me that she was taking the best prenatal vitamins that her pediatrician gave her. It helped her on her pregnancy and gave good results for her baby. The party was over by midnight but we stayed together with some of our other friends to drink and celebrate. It was a baby shower and a mini reunion at the same time. I miss them so much now. As mentioned in my previous blog entries, I am living with my housemates. We share everything: the laughs, the tears, the moments of bliss, and the moments of loneliness. We also share expenses. Right now, we are refraining from using electronic devices because of our electric bill. It’s been sky rocketing for almost three months now. To save a lot needs utmost cooperation of all the housemates. So, we have a new rule now, lights are turned off when the sun is up and this rule starts now. Last night, we were so bored that we started stretching out ourselves and doing some gymnastics stuff. We tried sit-and-reach routine and even some kicking stuff. They were all teasing me because of my very low reach and low kick. They told me that I should start on some ab workouts so that I could lose my belly fat and hopefully be able to improve my reach and kick. They even told me that they would join me in my exercise to put some pressure on me. I wish they thought of this method long time ago! |
