Do you make sign of peace when having photos?

Shavkat @Shavkat (141969) • Philippines 27 Jan 13

I've noticed in Korean TV series, most the actors used to have sign of peace in front of the camera. I am not sure, if they are making peace to the world. When I traveled n China and Hong Kong, some of the locals do the same...

sunshinesophie Before I made this sign when taken photos by someone, but as I get older, I find it silly. But in China, as far as I know, it stands for victory rather than peace. And peopel who make this sign say " ye" ( similar as the word cheers) when they are taken photos...

sunshinesophie Oh my god! It is so horrible! I am wondering who did that! I can not imagine how disgusting the smell was. And I am so sorry for those innocent cats. I hope they can be sent to the animal rescue station and they can stay safe and sound.

sunshinesophie Dear LMB, I am so sorry to hear. Sometimes I feel so. I always think that it is unfair to me when one trouble comes after one another. But life is not easy for all of us. And we can't evade and resist the life-death law of nature. What we can do is just don't...

sunshinesophie It is hard to tell if he is irresponsible or not,but I can be sure that he is still not mature enough. He pays more attention to paying than taking care of the baby. But try not to fight with him. It is not good for you. You will be sad after a fight but...

sunshinesophie It reminds me of a sorrowful memory. I used to take a bath in the rain and also had a heavy cry at the same time. I could not tell between the rain and tears. But I suggest we'd better not do that.It is easy to catch a cold.

sunshinesophie In China,if people who love jackfruit,they will eat it as one kind of fruit directly. But it can be made as a kind of soup as well.Stewing the jackfruit together with the chicken is really wonderful. But honestly I don't like jackfruit.I am afraid of the...

Jump into Conclusion = Jealousy over Petty Things

Shavkat @Shavkat (141969) • Philippines 21 Jan 13

It is a natural to get jealous, but not to the extent of overdoing it. For some people, a simple concern turns into a big deal. If your partner does not say anything about your concern, you will feel so frustrated. In some point,...
