QOTW #40

Wednesday, November 19, 2008

I’ve joined the QOTW since the beginning c/o Mommy Yen. And now I’m back to this weekly meme. Join us if you want, just don’t forget to leave your comments here (as well as in other participants), and link it from Yen’s blog. 

1. What measures have you taken to cut back expenses?

* I’ve always tried my best to stay away from the malls and from ebay but sometimes I end up buying something. *

2. Have you ever bought a book and used the receipt as a bookmark?

* Not yet, I guess. But I have used a scratched paper as a bookmark. *

3. Can you recall any traumatic, embarrassing or troubling events as a child that you still remember vividly? If so, care to share?

* I got lost in a flea market. A man asked me to come with him assuring me that he will help me find my mom. Gladly, we saw my mom shouting and looking for me. *

4. What is the strangest question you have ever been asked at a job interview?

* Are you willing to work on shifts and with mostly guys? *

5. Does it make you uncomfortable if a woman is breastfeeding her baby in public?

* Depending on the place. I saw a mother breastfeeding her baby inside the jeep. Mukhang di na sya nahihiya because she immediately lift her shirt (she’s not even wearing a maternity bra) and fed her baby. IMO, she could have covered her nipples while feeding her baby. *

6. Do you know anyone who has an unpredictable temper? Who?

* Yes, my classmate before in college. One day she’s good the other day she’s not. Ans when you ask her what’s her problem, she’d just walk out on you. lol. *

7. What did you have to learn “the hard way”?

* That life is really unfair at times. *

8. Have you ever been dishonest about the origin of a bruise?

* No. *

9. Have you ever gotten any kind of envelope in the mail without the senders return address? Did you found out who it was from?

* No. *

10. It’s our 40th QOTW. I am giving away something. Can you tell me why should I give it to you? It’s just a little something to spice up this little Meme!

* Yay, it’s the 40th na pala! You should give this lil something to me because I never won any contest yet. lol. Just kidding. Well, I’m a bit down lately and I need that to cheer me up! *

WW #3

 I simply find this picture romantic and at the same time, dramatic. The sun had just sunk low and its light added an art up above the skies and on the water’s surface. I took this photo in Boracay a few months back.
