The Neighborhood

They said, no man is an island, and no man stands alone. That is why we need to have neighbors. During my childhood, I lived in a rural place where the neighborhood knew each other. That time, the place was not yet been developed. We used fire-woods for cooking and we have to fetch water from the common spring. The life was simple yet memorable. When my mother prepared food and we didn't have match to start a fire, we just simply asked fire from the neighborhood and vice versa. As time gone by, progress moved fast and people changed. Now, you can no longer rely on your neighbors. You cannot even trust them. This is the sad reality. Sometimes, they are the once who pulls you down or push you to the pit of destruction. I don't know what's going on with them. I don't know if the progress has something to do with the changes of the neighborhood.

The Magic of Oil Price High

Commotions happen every time the oil price increases. Commuters grumble due to the higher fare that goes along with the increases of oil price. Some businessmen take advantage of the situation. Government leaders are cautious to their speeches. Everyone, everything is affected especially in the business sector. Transportation is the only means of bringing and carrying the people's needs, starting from the basic commodities up to the luxuries. The oil price high brings magic. And, when this magic has been spilled, lots of people loss their jobs and many companies will close because they cannot meet the demands of their employees. During the increase, everything increases too. Ordinary citizens who are receiving a minimum wage will suffer under the spill of oil price high.

My Workaholic Brother

As of now, we are living in a house of my father. Downstairs is where my brother's engraving shop. When we went home last night, it was around twelve midnight. As we entered inside the house, my brother was still working. His assistance was engraving while he was polishing the nameplates. At dawn, I still heard the sounds of the grinder. When I woke up this morning, he's still working even until I left to work. That is how dedicated he is to his work even if his earnings does not compensate his efforts. Seldom he relaxes. It seems that quiting does not exist in his mind. He never stop finding ways to prove his theory. If ever he's hired in a certain company, surely he will be a good asset because he is a workaholic.

The Sting of Stonefish

I like to spend most of my leisure time in the seashore. Though being there is not just for enjoyment but it is also a good place where we could get food. One day, my friend and I went there gathering shells for the dinner. Aside from collecting shells, we were also catching fish. As we were there, we're very noisy catching and chasing fish. Doing such thing, we used to bare foot. During that time, we were laughing out loud while chasing the fish until my friend stepped on something. It's a stone fish yet we did not recognize it because it looked like a stone. A matter of seconds, the sting scattered up to her thigh. Her foot swelled and she could hardly walk. The following day, the pain subsided. From then on, I no longer step on the seashore without clearing it.

Long Table

Have you seen a long table? Is your long table coming soon or it is already over? Maybe some are waiting for their second time. Well, whether it is your first or the second long table, surely when it is approaching it is full of stress and tension. Why? Because I am not referring to a physical table, not a senate table nor King Arthur's table but it refers to a wedding banquet. Two years ago we had our long table and this month we are celebrating our second year wedding anniversary. Everything is still fresh. I could not imagine how did I take the pressures, the stress and the tension. For the audience, it is exciting, but for the couple to be wedded, long table is a lot of pressure.

Branded

I know some people who are fond of collecting branded things. For them using and wearing things with signatures, gives them a sense of pride. It increases themselves esteem. Sometimes I disregard with their opinions but somehow, they also have a point. The way people look at your lifestyle depends on the brand and cost of the things you are using and wearing. There are also people who don't care for the branded one. For them, branded or without brand doesn't matter at all as long as you know how to carry it by yourself.

Significance of Dream

I used to dream that I can fly. In my dream, I need to stay in a higher place that serves as spring board where I could start flying. It was an exhausting dream of mine because I have to keep on kicking my feet and waving my arms like bird just to keep me going, otherwise, I will fall into the ground. If witches were chasing after me, then my dreams ended up into nightmares. I did not give meaning to any of my dreams before nor gave them importance. Until such time that I dreamed of something bad which I could not recall when I woke up, yet, made me uneasy. Week passed, untoward incident happened. At first, I told myself that it was just a coincidence, but it did not only happen once, in fact, it happened many times. Though I did not give importance to my dreams, but I admit that some of my dreams somehow warned me of unpleasant event that will happen to me and to the people that I care. These things made me ponder if dreams really convey message. Maybe yes just like the story in the Bible "Joseph the Dreamer".

Multiple Intelligences

Nobody is dull and everyone is intelligent. Those were the things my teacher used to tell us. When she saw my eyebrows met, she knew that there's something behind these meetings of eyebrows. She understood right away what was the question hidden at the back of my mind. So she started to explain and said, each one is unique, even identical twins differ from each other. They may be similar in profile yet, each twin is individually different from the other. Their intellect are not the same too. Thus, everyone excels in different ways. Anybody can be very good in numbers but cannot express himself verbally. Some may not good in academic but are good at other aspects. Intelligence does not focus only in Cognitive domain but also in Affective domain and Psycho motor domain as well. Some people hate mathematics especially figures yet, they can dance and sing very well. That's why my teacher said, everyone is intelligent because each one excels in a certain skill.

My Favorite Dishes

I am a type of person who is not attracted to meat. Though meat is good, but I don't prefer to eat it. Maybe because it as how my folks raised me. I have a food preference. I am a vegetarian person. My stomach always craves with vegetables. I also love seafood. That is one reason why I like to be in the seashore. We used to cook seafood combined with vegetables. When other people saw me eating vegetables laughed at me. They said I have a goat blood. They didn't know that aside from being delicious, compared with meat, they are more affordable and nutritious..

Why many people like to maximize the volume of their music?

This was the question that pondered in my mind. Why my neighbors don't like to lower the volume of their music? It's very noisy in the neighborhood. If you try to tell them, you ended up the bad one. Many times I overreacted to the situation especially when I wanted to have some rest, but my spouse stopped me told me, "just enjoy the noise". Maybe they wanted us to share with their music or maybe they wanted to be known for having the loudest sound system in the place. I didn't know which of the two supposition was correct. But my brother replied, neither of them. He said, they're doing such thing because they couldn't find stillness in their hearts.

Accessory Made Of Seashells

We can find treasure in the sea water. Aside from that, sea is also one source food and accessories. Lots of useful things can be found in the sea and even just in the seashore. Many beautiful accessories are made of seashells. Seashell has multi purpose, it serves as dish while the empty seashell can be used as accessories or even house decor. Lampshades, chandelier, buckles, earrings, necklace, bracelets made of seashell are beautiful. When you meet people in the city especially women, you can see most of their accessories are made of seashell and they look glamorous and fascinated.

Curiosity

Canube the Curious is strolling at the carnival one day. He notices a large crowd gathering around a show at the far end. He decides to find out who the clever performer is and see what he or she is doing to attract such a big crowd. To his dismay, however, he cannot see over people's heads. He shoves and elbows himself through the thick crowd but fails to reach the front. Finally, a clever idea comes to him. He starts shouting at the top of his voice, "Make way! I am the father of the performer!" When the crowd hears this, they move to one side to give way to Canube the Curious. "Make way! I am the father of the performer!" he shouts again. Upon reaching the front, Canube is embarrassed to see that the clever performer is a monkey juggling a number of balls.
