What's in your name?

chrissa808 @chrissa808 (284) • Philippines 22 Jul 09

Admit it or not, our name is one of the priceless possessions we have, something we truly call our own. Ever counted how many times you googled your name to see how many in this world share the same name like you? I had countless...

emskoneko My real name is Elysse and it was given to me at birth because I had my dad's baby face. Since his name is Luis, I was named Elysse since it sounds similar. I think that story of your name is really beautiful. Even though I wasn't named for the name's meaning,...

Do you like reading? Who's your favorite author? Fiction or Non fiction?

dloveli @dloveli (4366) • United States 23 Jul 09

I just finished one of the new Danielle Steel books called "Rogue". It was a really good book. Simple, refreshing reading. It was about a couple that had 3 children, busy careers and a divorce. In the end it brings family...

emskoneko I've read some of the Harry Potter Series but fell out of it when it became too much teenage drama. I have also read A Child Called It and I really loved it. It really gives readers a glimpse into a sad childhood. I love reading but I don't read as much as...

emskoneko My nickname is Lissete but my real name is Elysse. It's supposed to sound similar to my dad's name, Luis. I like the sound of name because there is no harsh vowel or consonant. It's very smooth and a bit childish to me. :]

100% PINOY: Strong Family Ties, Bad or Good?

dzeiel091383 @dzeiel091383 (49) • Philippines 23 Jul 09

Filipinos have strong family ties. They want their family to be as close as the closest they can get. In other countries, one you reach 18 or so, it's kind of a shame if you still live with your parents, while here in a the...

emskoneko The law system we have is so complicated but I think there's a good reason why it's not as simple as put every law breaker to death. I can't see why a toddle who didn't know better should be put to death if they find a gun in the street and shoots someone. And...

emskoneko Although I hate being caught in the rain without an umbrella, I usually don't bring one unless the weather report says it will rain. I don't like constantly holding an umbrella in my hands or in my bag, especially if I have a lot of school books.

emskoneko I enjoy his films but I wouldn't call myself a Tim Burton fan. My favorite Burton film is Edward Scissorhands. I'm really interested in the Alice film because I love all the characters and the fantasy setting. I really hope he doesn't let the viewers down. :]

emskoneko Me too! I like responding more because I find it more interesting to find the discussions and read other users' responses. Plus, I'm not so creative anymore when it comes to making my own discussions. I just came back to mylot a few days ago so I'm rusty.

emskoneko I usually keep receipts for the more expensive purchases. My mom taught me to do this in case something like your situation happenes. If you have a folder, shoe box, or an envelope you can keep them there so they won't create a mess around your house. :]

emskoneko I like to listen to music when I surf the internet. I also use it to help me fall asleep and to wake me up in the morning. For instance, I like to listen to my ipod once I get up. It helps me feel less drowsy and more energized.
