jhovee629 Garlic is very good for your health. In fact I have seen some garlic supplements being sold in a store one day. It is said to have all those effects. My aunt once took it chopped fresh everyday to lower her cholesterol level, and it worked very well. :)

give, receive, gain, lose

bokal2703 @bokal2703 (802) • Philippines 14 Aug 10

In giving, you do not have less, but in giving, you gain more...a friend of mine told me that I have this attitude of giving things to the point that nothing will be left for me. He said it's okay to give but not to the extent of...

jhovee629 I agree that giving is better than receiving. Though, I do agree with your friend in the context that if the thing you are giving away is really important for you and your family it might not really be practical. If you are not suffering in the process then it...

'things i love friday'

koditza @koditza (235) • Germany 14 Aug 10

Hey guys, I was surfing today the Internet and i noticed that many bloggers have these posts with the title 'things I love Friday'. And my question is - why? Is there some kind of blogging ritual? :D

blog

jhovee629 I am guessing that this is because Friday is the last day of the week especially for working people. They might be looking forward to the weekend where they can rest and not think about work stuff. So maybe blogging is their outlet. Im just guessing :p

jhovee629 This is a hard one, but if I really have to choose I will choose a boring life. Since when you are bored you have a lot of time to burn and thus do things that won't be stressful yet enjoyable :)

jhovee629 I agree that it sucks to have someone studying when you want to go out during a holiday (given that exams are not near in any manner). Everyone needs to have some time to relax and enjoy life. Although i haven't had the urge to go and slap anyone haha :)

jhovee629 I think it has to do with the view of society on things. We always believe that girls are well "feminine". In a sense that since they are that way, they need to be protected and sheltered. Girls should be protected since in a "male-dominated" society girls...

jhovee629 I love to watch TV or movies and I like it even more when I have something to munch on as well. :p I think it is because I feel more relaxed when I watch and eat something at the same time. :)

jhovee629 Pasta does not need to be washed afterwards, based on what I heard, washing pasta will remove all of the nutrients (not sure if this is true). You can wash it though is it will be used in a cold dish, like pasta salad. If you really need to wash it, just toss...
