    When you drive through the national highway in Ilocos province particularly in Ilocos Norte and Ilocos Sur, you can find vendors selling dragon fruits along the national roads waving the fruits to the […]

    • Love doing it, the feeling of picking that fruit without even care pricking with its thorns.

    • Dragon fruit as far as I know is a very nutritious food.It is anti cancer fruit.It is also very expensive fruit,Though I haven’t tasted this fruit, somehow, I long to buy and taste this fruit. This is a rare fruit in our city. I only saw this kind one time.It was sold by a farm owner of dragon fruit.That time was the supposed best time for me to buy, but that was a Sunday and I was about to attend the mass. When i went out after the mass was over, gone was the big truck selling dragon fruits.

    • Really? I’ve never been heared about dragon fruits but i hope one day i can go to ilocos all the way from manila and see the hystorical place in Vigan. I think Vigan is one of Philippines’ most beautiful
      cities, as it showcases the Spanish heritage of
      the country.

    • This reminds of my first time eating this fruit. It was added on a fruit shake that I bought in our school. It kinda tasted like watermelon while the seeds were like nuts.

    • Really dragon fruit is one of the best and sweet fruit in Pataya and along with it is most useful for heath. I gives many benefits to human health. As…
      Dragon Fruit Cholesterol
      Keeping a heart healthy low cholesterol diet? Don’t worry about your cholesterol Dragon fruit cholesterol is not an issue. Dragon fruit is both low in cholesterol and has little to no unhealthy cholesterol producing fats (certain fats which are metabolized to cholesterol contribute to increased cholesterol levels more than even cholesterol itself in food sources of cholesterol).

      Dragon Fruit Vitamin C
      The amount of vitamin C in dragon fruit is high, and because the dragon fruit is a natural fruit providing you with a rich balance of nutrients coming along with the vitamin C, you absorb the Vitamin C in dragon fruit efficiently when you eat dragon fruit as part of your fruit healthy diet.

      Dragon Fruit Antioxidants
      Eat dragon fruit as a good natural source of anti-oxidants which help to prevent the dangers of free radicals which can cause cancer and other undesirable health detriments.The number, quantity, and variety of antioxidants in real foods like dragon fruit is completely unmatched by any food supplement or pills – even those claiming to have ‘antioxidant’ health benefits.

      Nothing compares to the rich array of nutrients and antioxidants in a real natural food like the dragon fruit. Forget about junk foods and processed foods, as they are poison not foods! Even though a supplement claiming to offer a high amount of antioxidant benefits may sound good, the fact is that foods like dragon fruit have literally thousands of varieties of antioxidant substances and the supplement likely will contain only one (e.g. vitamin E supplements).

      Taking a single megadose of a single antioxidant compound may in fact cause harm or be toxic! Stick with dragon fruit antioxidant sources and other fresh fruits and vegetables and avoid trying to take a shortcut through a pill.

      Dragon fruit nutritional benefits also include the levels of dragon fruit antioxidants – the antioxidants in dragon fruit are numerous and varied.

    Beware of robbers and theft this rainy season, they are everywhere chancing the heavy rains to climb the rooftop and walk like a cat that their feet cannot be felt by the owners of the house they are […]

    • That is true, many criminals do their dirty jobs during the height of heavy rain. so they won’t be notice.

    • Even if sunny or rainy theres a lot of criminals roaming out there like a lion looking for someone to devour. We should always check our house before going to sleep if all doors are tightly closed and we should be extra careful to trust a virtual stranger knocking at home. You could also installed a cctv camera to monitor the surrounding around your house if there is a intruder coming in. Always call the police for help.

    • Good thing we have a dog in our house. She’ll bark if someone comes in. Keeping a guard dog can go a long way, considering that they can help protect your house at times of need.

    • Rainy days ar3 very tricky for many people. In our country sometimes people dread sleeping at night for feet of being attacked when it is raining coz that’s when thugs take advantage of the situation. But nowadays it is not as rampant as it used to be before. We have all kinds of security measures that have been out in place to avoid thuggery, but all in all thugs will always be thugs if they want to steal that will steal it’s only God who watches over us.

    • You say right in rainy season most of the criminal roam in the street and roads to make robbery in the stores and shops because nobody come out their homes in the rainy season. But is it not the fault of rain but our society if full of criminals.

      As we see in Saudi Arabia there is no robbery in rainy season or out of rainy season because in Saudi Arabia laws are most strict for any crime. If anyone is caught making theft or any other crime his anon hanged among the public. You can watch videos on U Tube how to cut off the head of the criminals among the mass.

      That is why in European countries there is no hard punishment for the criminals who make theft. That is why criminal and culprits are at large in making thefts easily because they know they will be released after some years.

      It is the fault of political parties that do not make strict laws for criminal and culprits. In Saudi Arabia if becomes any robbery and does not find the police the Saudi Government pays the damages anon to the victims.

    peachpurple wrote a new post, Is Doing Homework a Waste Of Time 9 years ago

    The answer is NO, doing homework is NOT a waste of time.

    My […]

    • Doing homework is not a waste of time but is saves human future. Keep in mind homework improves human sitting power is the root of knowledge. those who can sit may gain knowledge of all type. Those who cannot sit may not improve knowledge is a law of nature.

      It is a concrete fact that intelligence cannot make the deficiency of hardworking and homeworking while hard working can complete the deficiency of intelligence.

      Homework does not mean a lot of work beyond the children age is a wrong concept it is just to make money and to impress the parents. The motto of the school owner is through schooling just to make money and nothing else.

    • In my opinion homework is very important. parents should see that their children do their homework regularly. If parents donot give importance to it, their children wont show interest in it. what I want to emphasize is that the progress of a student is based upon the triangle, that is the student, the teacher and the parents.

    • Homework is a waste of time. It takes the enjoyment out of school and it takes up teacher time. Students need more free time for other activities such as sports, homework takes it away from spending time with family and friends.

      Students need more free time for other activities. Education isn’t the only important activity in everyone’s life. We all need some time to ourselves to prevent stress or blow off from some steam. It can damage family relationships and stresses parents out as well as their children. School takes up a lot of time that children can be using to do something more productive.

    • It takes the enjoyment out of school. We would enjoy school more if we didn’t have any homework. When we only get homework occcassionally we will consider that piece more important. Especially if we get too much homework it can take the enjoyment out of learning. No matter how engaging the teacher is in class , homework will almost certainly be stressful , boring and tiring. We know that there is no direct link between how much homework is set and grades.

      Some people believe that homework isn’t a waste of time. You have to try your best to do the homework that’s given to you. Millions of people work for themselves or work from home. The main aim of education is to prepare us for the rest of their lives. Homework is teaching us a key skill that we will need in the future . When we do homework we are learning on our own.

    • School is like breakfast and lunch to the brain and home work is like dinner being served to the brain. As our memories are unable to retain everything being told or explained in the class. We have to come home and recap what has been taught. Homework is ideally given for this purpose. So that it is like a reconfirmation for you that you remember what you understood in your class well.

      If homework is given in excess or is given just to make them something ten times. Then it becomes a bore for the students as it turns out to be mechanical and it would also stress the minds of the students. But we find that majority of the students are lazy and are into things other than studies and hence do not find the time or are not interested in doing the homework. When we get a package we have to take a whole package and we cannot pick and choose. Same is the case with studies as it is a package and homework is part of the package.

    • Very interesting and helpful tips about how to pass the employment interview. Uphold the the good work. Keep on posting relative topics which is beneficial for all.

    • such things are good to know. I remember I had about 3 job interviews that I failed and I got out so disappointed of it. it’s true at the same time that I didn’t go too well prepaired

    • I remember three things that had worked me well when I applied for a job for the first time. my potential, my willingness and my openness to accept the unexpected. Since it was the first time for me to look for a job, I was, of course nervous. I didn’t know what to do in case my prospective employer thru their manager would interview me. I just prepared myself with a prayerful attitude that God knows what is best for me.

      It was my turned to get inside the manager’s office of the bank. What should I tell the manager of my experience since I just graduated from my commerce course, except for the apprenticeship I have had with the cooperating bank of the college which I studied. I handed in my letter of application to the manager. He took a short glimpse of it and put it down on his table. I thought why he didn’t read it a bit. He asked me the first question: “Why should the bank hire you?” With confidence, I rehearsed what I had learned from my bank apprenticeship. When I was done I looked straight to his eye.

      He asked the second question: “Are you married?” I answered him straight yes. No explanation. No elaboration. Then he threw a follow-up question: “Would you do if you are working when your wife gets sick and you’ve an important job to finish? Whom would you prefer to do?” I firmly replied that I would have to attend to my wife who is sick. My wife is my priority for she’s sick. She’s the reason why I should work.

      Third and last question: “What should you do when the company fire you?” I would accept it. I know that the company where I am working knows what is best. Therefore, if I deserve it or not, I have to accept me. I know there is still God who finds what is best for me. The manager stood up, shook my hands. He told me to start on Monday for I was hired.

    • Thanks for sharing, although I might not need these advice for the time being. Anyway, they are really useful for those school leavers, fresh graduates.
      According to my observation and experience, attitude is every thing. There are many newbie whom have bad working habits and attitudes.

      Take an example, they won’t call up and inform the human resource department if they are sick on a particular day, only when the human resource folks called them up only they will tell and request for a medical leave. It is really terrible.

    • All the above tips ar3 good for anyone who is planning to go for an interview. Many people oftenly assume or don’t take interviews as serious business. You would find others going here in tight fitting clothes, or maybe wear something revealing, and this can be very devastating for the person being interviewed. Others may think when you wear revealing clothes you will get favor from the but boss but that doesn’t work at all it instead works against you. Always be straight with your answers dont beat about the bush, say it like it is. Always wait to be asked to sit down don’t badge into the office and take a seat wait until you are asked to sit down. Actually it’s really all about ettiqute that’s all.

    • For me, one of the easiest way to release stress is laughter. Not only it is good for your health and body but it also relieve all the physical tension and stress in your daily lives, leaving your muscle relaxes in a certain period of time. It is easy, effective, natural, enjoyable to laugh. Worry Less. Be positive. Don’t cling on a negative side. Have a grateful life with full of laughter.

    • These are very good tips. I try to do something in the quiet almost every day, like coloring or my paint by number. Or I might play a little background music, because music destresses me, too. As for dark chocolate, I love that so I’ll treat myself anytime!

    • Everyone has his/ her own stress. We might have a wrong perception that only those working people facing stress which from their work. For those not working, might face the stress from the other aspects of life, like house maker might not have enough time to fetch children to school, cook, and her/his own leisure time.
      Thus, how to handle stress is really important to make a happier life. To me, a cup of coffee is a must to make up my day. Hehe!
      On the other hand, exercise is very important to kick away the stress.

    • Also, go to sleep. It doesn’t matter how soon your deadline is; you will slow down if you’re too sleepy. People usually forgo sleep in order to get more time, which is good when the deadline is tomorrow morning. But a good rest will go a long way. There are even psychological research studies on sleep and napping wherein their conclusions show that people have increased memory and spatial abilities.

    • Firstly, let’s debunk one myth: stress is not necessarily a ‘bad’ thing. Without this brilliant ability to feel stress, humankind wouldn’t have survived. Our cavemen ancestors, for example, used the onset of stress to alert them to a potential danger, such as a sabre-toothed tiger.

      Stress is primarily a physical response. When stressed, the body thinks it is under attack and switches to ‘fight or flight’ mode, releasing a complex mix of hormones and chemicals such as adrenaline, cortisol and norepinephrine to prepare the body for physical action. This causes a number of reactions, from blood being diverted to muscles to shutting down unnecessary bodily functions such as digestion.

    • Part of me gets happy when the weather reports that there is a hurricane. I’m happy for the rain or the water. But I get very happy if it by the time it reaches landfall it has died down enough not to do any real damage.

    • La Nina is a phenomenon which waters in the equatorial regions of the Pacific Ocean are unseasonably cool. The cooler waters affect the atmosphere above the ocean, causing significant changes in climate, though usually not as significant as the changes that occur during an El Niño. As a result of heavy rain clouds and trade winds it may effect into any form of calamities like heavy rain fall, flash flood, and landslide. We must be responsible to take care of mother nature and used our natural resource in a very convenient way without destroying its value.

    peachpurple wrote a new post, Dilemma of Stay At Home Mom 9 years ago

    I often used to think about it.

    Did I made the right or wrong decision to resign from my full-time job with a decent monthly salary to a Stay at Home Mom for good?

    In our modern techno society, most women ( […]

    • “A wise woman builds her home.” Whatever is included in that process, i.e. building your home … be is deciding to stay at home, working a job outside the home, etc. … if you goal is to build your home and have a wonderful family life, your heart is in the right place. For most women, if their heart is in the right place, their family knows that and will help them make a happy home. Do what works for you and your family. Don’t let other people tell you what you’re supposed to do IN YOUR HOUSE. Because if you follow their advice and your home life gets damaged, they’re not going to offer any help fixing it back! They’ll walk off and leave you with the mess that they helped create!

    • A stay at home mum has too many things to think about and also take care of. Many women opt to work because the work of a work at home mum is quite hard it’s not as easy as it may sound of seem. Taking care of children is the hardest job ever that women have to face whether they are working other jobs or not. It entails so much the waking up early, doing laundry cooking an the like. Many women would like to take the time to stay home and take care of their children for free that their children may not fall into temptation of misbehave. I may agree to the idea of staying home but at times a woman just needs her freedom sometimes and not depend her husband for everything. That’s why some of them just want to have a job of their own.

    • As I have said in my many articles that woman means construction and man means destruction. All women must build their homes for their children as you see that a male sparrow builds home first before choosing the female sparrow I saw in The National Geographic Channel. Looking at the scene I wondered really how the male sparrow trapped a female sparrow and after mating the male flew in search of fod.

      And that child needs his own house. He has his own needs that are not personal. Or professional. And these needs become priority because he/she is too small to build his/her own house. We pull more blocks from our various houses. Relationships change. Career goals change. Our personal house falls to the side.

      I have had a hard time finding my own little house… The one I started with. The one I have always told others to maintain. The one that belonged SOLELY to me. The one that had nothing to do with my marriage, career, children…

      I thought of all the women — all the mothers, who some days find themselves resenting the other houses… and all of the bricks they had to pull from their own roofs to build new, structurally sound homes for spouses, and jobs and children
