Yes I massacred the numerous wild reeds (talahib) in our backyard because they tend to attract snakes and vipers which are not very reassuring. I used our Black and Decker Alligator chainsaw for those thick shrubs, bushes and reeds that have stems as big as my calves. I like the style and design since it makes me feel that I am in a sci fi movie and using a high tech gadget to fight the villains in the form of weeds. I am by nature a gardener and I do not like weedy and untidy garden in our backyard. Of course, I only use the best tools there is since what I want when buying a tool is its longevity, durability and usefulness. My garden tools are all exclusively branded by Black and Decker, the only brand that I choose. Aside from our garden tools, we also have hardware tools and machine tools with the same brand. So if you want to massacre the verge on your garden, choose black and Decker, and I promise you, it wouldn’t be a horror story to begin with. Read the rest

I have never been fond of mathematics and numbers… they give me headaches. To tell you the truth, I almost cheated in my Algebra Class in High School just to pass the exam, which unfortunately asked the question of X. Weird isn’t it. We were required to compute for hours and scribble on our scratch pads just to find that stupid X. Golly, I hate those equations. But if there is one branch of science and math that I love most, it would be chemistry. Though I hate the equations but nevertheless I love mixing formulas and chemicals during our experiments in High School and College. All those nauseating odors and hand burning chemicals were just parts and parcel of the bliss of chemistry. Read the rest

I’m off to a good start today. I had a wheat breakfast and many fibrous fruits.

So what is the sudden inspiration to do the unthinkable? I know I know, some of you might even wondering “who” is the girl behind my effort to lose ponds. Well… Read the rest
