I have always been sickly ever since I was young. My mom says that when I was born, there wasn’t a month that I didn’t have to spend at the hospital. This was because I had asthma ever since I was born. I had asthma attacks from the simplest things such as dirt and fur; this was also the reason why I wasn’t able to keep a pet.

Even when I grew up I still had weak lungs, though it was considerably better than back when I was younger. My asthma attacks were less frequent and were less severe, although I still had them every once in a while. What we did was that we made sure that there are no allergens and dust particles in the home so that I can live a relatively normal life. However, when I was to go to college, a dilemma came in. The school was a bit far from home so I had to look for an apartment near it. My parents were scared that I might not be able to control my asthma attacks since it is no longer a controlled environment. It is a good thing that we discovered the beauty of Hepa Air Cleaners. With this in my apartment room, the air was sure to be clean and dust free. Now I go to college and haven’t had a major asthma attack as of yet.

I was born in to a family of cooks. Our family really loves cooking and eating good food that is why even while I was still young, I had a lot of experience working in the kitchen. Apparently nobody in the family actually took up culinary arts, and nobody even worked at a restaurant or even a fast food joint! But surprisingly, they all were good cooks, from my grandparents, to my aunts and uncles and even my parents. I guess this is a case of what you call that it runs in the family.

Therefore it was really not surprising that I chose to take up a culinary course, although I am the very first in the family to do so. Here I learned most of the skills that my parents have taught me throughout the years but at a better and more scientific approach. I am proud to say that I think my culinary skills have leveled up exponentially. One thing that I discovered in school is the automatic pepper grinder. With this, I no longer have to crush the peppers manually and it can save me a lot of time, not to mention, the result is a finer and evenly crushed pepper. I bought one at home so that my parents can also use this product and they were all amazed by its efficiency. Now all of them says that going to culinary school was really a big improvement and told me to buy more gadgets and tools that I see in the classroom.

I one of those do it yourself guys and I just enjoy using my power tools for almost any task. Let’s face it, guys enjoy doing these jobs. The feel of using my power tools to drill through wood or cut through it really makes me ecstatic. With these I have already been able to make my own cabinet, desk, and 2 chairs. But what’s really needed to complete this ensemble would have to be pneumatic tools.

Pneumatic tools, as the name implies, requires compressed air for it to function. Hammers, air brush, paint gun, and polisher are among the few equipment that requires compressed gas to work. First of all I need to buy a tank of compressed air. Then I need to buy some air hose connectors which will connect the tool to the compressed air tank.

After a few months of searching and deciding my garage now looks like a mini workshop complete with heavy duty equipment that will surely make my DIY projects better and faster. I can now do more complicated projects and finish it even faster. Now the next thing to do would be to convince my wife to allow me to buy more materials.

Next week will be my best friend’s wedding and up till now I still have no idea what to give her and her new husband. I’ve thought about the standard things to give like new home appliances but I just feel that it won’t be as striking as I want it to be. You see, we’ve been childhood friends for a long time so I really want to give her something special.

As I was reminiscing, I remembered an incident back when we were 11 years old wherein we sneaked around her house to look for ghosts. And while we were ghost hunting she accidentally tripped and knock me over. We were so scared because we thought it was a ghost’s doing so we ran around the place screaming. Her parents woke up afterwards and got angry at us for making such a ruckus. Then her mom said that we even broke their Paragon Fine Bone China. We both looked at each other because we both knew that we didn’t break anything. We got so scared afterwards that we never did that again.

With that memory in mind, I think I now know what I’ll give her for her wedding. Not only will she be able to use it but it will also remind her of our friendship and all the mess that we’ve been through.

I’m a big fan of cooking and eating good food. I am very meticulous when it comes to the food that I prepare that is why my counter space is filled with tons of appliances that I use when I cook. Unfortunately, since I got my new job, I’ve had almost no time to prepare food; I have been eating fast food and instant microwavable food since then. And to tell you the truth, I’ve grown tired of eating those foods; not to mention my body is starting to feel its detrimental effects: I’ve already gained 20 lbs and it hasn’t been 3 months yet!

That is why I decided to buy the best convection oven I can grab in the market. I’ve read about these things once in a magazine. It uses the circulating hot air inside to cook food evenly and at a faster rate than the conventional oven. After buying and trying it out, I was amazed by how good the food tasted. I’ve already cooked chicken, pork, and lamb chops in it and it was done in no time. The taste was also very good and it was soft and moist. Now, hopefully I can start cooking my meals again and shed off the 20 lbs I gained.

Pamela teased as “Peculiar Pam” back in high school. She was always wearing black and violet clothes with pink tights. Peculiar Pam also carried with her a pink flat iron though she can’t use it at school. She also wears huge plastic flowers in her hair and multiple wide belts. She was a queer one as her classmates would refer to her.

Ten years later and Peculiar Pam has seriously evolved from a weird and ugly duckling to an elegant and beautiful swan. Pamela is now a fashion stylist and has styled numerous celebrities like Tennis Royalties Serena and Venus Williams, Courtney Cox-Arquette and Jennifer Love Hewitt to name a few.

Pamela’s taste had influenced a lot of people in the society, making her one of the most sought after fashion stylist today. Pamela has conquered many hurdles and challenges before getting where she is now. And it has all made her stronger. If she had succumbed to regularity back in high school, she wouldn’t know her true potential and her talent in style.

If she would meet any of her high school classmates, she would literally fight the urge to laugh in their faces. But instead, she would gladly give them a makeover.

Yesterday, I went to accompany my Dad to the hardware store and the mall. He needs to buy a few items and I volunteered to drive him. I am quite fascinated about how my Dad shops. He is meticulous yet practical. He is frugal yet brand conscious. There are a lot of things I could learn from my Dad and it is a good thing that I accompanied him to do errands.

At the hardware store, he looked at hammers, axes and knives. We even surveyed a few portable generators for sale. Dad was looking for a few light bulbs and door knobs. He wanted to replace those from our house but is not in a hurry since all of them are still in great working condition. He just wants to know how much are the ones that he likes so he can set a realistic budget.

My Dad likes to look at a lot of things especially those new products that just came out of the market. He doesn’t want to be left out of the technology or development of anything hardware. It was fun being with my dad for a day. I did learn a lot from him and I hope to be as sensible as he is.

Melanie was called the “Rich Girl” in high school. She was not pleased with this nickname even though she really belonged to a rich family back in Texas. Her family owns a huge ranch with cows and horses and all those animals.

A rich girl trying to step out of his family’s shadow, Melanie decided to go to college in a California. I was one of the lucky ones who get to know the real Melanie. She was really kind, intelligent and sporty. She is fond of adventure and was the mechanical bull riding champ for three years in a row. Melanie was a real go-getter. She never used her family’s background or money to get where she is now.

During one of those holidays, Melanie invited a few of us to their ranch in Texas. We were really excited and raring to go. As soon as we arrived, we were awed by their huge house. There were magnificent horses in corrals and huge bulls too.

Texas was warm, but that didn’t stop Melanie’s parents from installing several outdoor fire places. We had a really great time at Melanie’s home in Texas. Her family were really accommodating. Plus, we learned how to ride horses.

I was staring at our kitchen light in between bites. It was midnight and I couldn’t sleep. So, I got up and made myself a cold turkey sandwich. I also drank ice cold orange juice since I was not in the mood for anything hot.

It has been two nights in a row. Why can’t I sleep early? I had been tossing and turning in bed since 9:30 in the evening. This sleeping difficulty maybe caused by my current addiction to coffee. Lately, I have been consuming 5 tall lattes in the afternoon. That does not count the additional 3 more I drink in the morning.

Maybe it’s because of my job as well. Lately, I have been so stressed and pressured when meeting almost impossible deadlines. My non-existent social life is no help either. Most of my friends are busy as well and I could bear going out alone.

As I chewed my turkey sandwich, I thought about all the great times I had during college. When everything was hectic yet laid back. I got to party all the time I want but also making sure that I passed all my classes. Where have the good times gone? Maybe I’m just getting old.

I don’t usually have friends visiting my house. For me, it is a hassle. I hate cleaning up and tidying my apartment. I don’t even have a proper storage for shoes. They are just there… on the floor.

Okay, I admit I am a slob. But I also don’t go to the grocery frequently. What would I serve my visitors? Half of a rotting apple? Maybe a half-empty box of cereals?

My friends have been constantly pestering me about when they’ll get the chance to hang out in my apartment. Over and over, I made up excuses that my light have gone out or that I had no water or I got kicked out of my apartment. But since they are my friends, they know better and this rally hurt their feelings.

Tonight, I have finally invited my friends over. I spent the entire Saturday cleaning the apartment and getting decent furniture. My old couch practically had black holes that would swallow anyone who sits down on it. The finished look of my apartment was totally unexpected. I finally lived in a proper home not a pigsty.

A few six packs of beers, large pepperoni pizza and cheetos later, my friends’ finally got a full glimpse of my apartment.
