Having a Healthy Breakfast

seriousnuts @seriousnuts (508) • Philippines 27 Nov 12

I just remembered a Japanese show I've seen months ago. It's about the Japanese placing importance on breakfast. The mother in the family usually wakes up very early in the morning to prepare a heavy breakfast for the family. The...

Becoming an Adult

seriousnuts @seriousnuts (508) • Philippines 16 Sep 12

When I graduated fresh out of college, I was faced with the fear of becoming an adult. I felt like Peter Pan who doesn't want to grow up. I was so afraid of the new responsibilities that I had to face. Little by little, I learned...

I believe that for two people to be compatible with one another, one of the most important factors they should agree upon is about money matters. I've seen my parents argue for so many times due to disagreements on where to allot...

When life becomes a routine

seriousnuts @seriousnuts (508) • Philippines 3 Sep 12

Sometimes in life, there comes a time when everything becomes so stagnant. You wake up, go to work, go home, sleep, and the cycle repeats. Nothing new happens. It may in fact get so depressing when you feel your life becomes very...

Strangers who are gentlemen

seriousnuts @seriousnuts (508) • Philippines 31 Aug 12

There are some men who deserve our appreciation. These are men who treat women as ladies. I appreciate men who would wait for you to pass first before entering a narrow walkway. If they happen to meet a woman along the narrow...

Despicable Behavior

seriousnuts @seriousnuts (508) • Philippines 28 Aug 12

Many people love to gossip. We know it's bad, and the worst thing to gossip about are people's secrets. Our neighbor's maid found a diary in her owner's house and read it. As if intruding wasn't despicable enough, she even went to...

Interests and Identity

seriousnuts @seriousnuts (508) • Philippines 6 Jul 12

My sis told me that Japanese people don't get offended when you insult their interests in music, movies, etc. because they put their likes/dislikes apart from their identity. I remembered that in high school, while I was still...

An Observation in the Mall

seriousnuts @seriousnuts (508) • Philippines 28 Nov 11

I recently noticed this as my sister pointed this out to me: When we go to the mall, dressing simple, the salespeople would just leave us alone while we go about our business. That didn't bother me at all. In fact, I prefer it...
