Panda Bear or Polar Bear? (T-Thunks#1)


1. Someone knocks at your door. You answer it. It's a kid from the local school selling candy bars for a fundraiser. Do you buy one? Because it's a kid ... maybe if it wouldn't look like a scam.

2. The end of the world is tomorrow and you are out of milk - do you go buy some? Yes of course maybe I'll buy lots of it.

3. Have you ever picked up the phone and called someone that you hadn't talked to in years? My uncle and aunt in the US.

4. Whats on your computer desktop background? Niagara falls, my husband took that photo.

5. What was the very first movie you saw in a movie theater? Lol! That was Evil Dead with my family... and yeah at that time it scared the hell out of me. I don't know if it would have the same effect now.

6. If you had to take a 10th grade science test, do you think you would pass? At my brain age now ... "No" but give me time to review maybe I'll pass.

7. Describe heaven. It's a place of peace and no worries.

8. Has a place that you lived ever been infested with some sort of insect or rodent? Yeah when I was in my college years the place where I was sharing rent with my cousins in the city was termite infested ... it's freaky you can go paranoid thinking on your sleep it would go inside your ears. You can hear their little buzzing coz mostly all our furnitures are wood.

9. When you were a youngin', did you hide in the clothes racks at department stores? No.

10. Is there anything in your vehicle that is broken? Well no ... maybe if it sort of happened my husband would fix it immediately.

11. What is something in your house that people would be surprise to find? Maybe it's my neighboring friend's cat "Portia". I don't own a cat so people get surprised seeing Portia. Portia knows our house and sometimes knocks on the door for a visit.

12. Do you agree with the death penalty? Yes if proven guilty 101%.

13. Whats your favorite type of bear? Panda bear they are the cutest and I love them but I also want to see Polar bears.

14. Where was the last place you went? In Niagara Falls last weekend.

15. What if that person knocking at your door earlier was an adult selling candy bars... would you buy one? Oh! That's why I said if it's a kid ... I don't know honestly I don't just go open doors. Maybe no. It would be weird if adults sell candy bars.

Dragonball Evolution not a hit in movies?


You're probably a kid living in Asia in the 90's era if you know Dragonball Z. Too popular that from the time my brother was a kid till he goes to senior high school I can still see reruns of it in TV. I am happy seeing some news last year that it was produced into a movie and will be showing this year. And yeah was shown this April though haven't seen it in the moviehouse. I was scanning some reviews of it in rottentomatoes.com and found out critics gave it a very low rating 13% on the tomatometer. Was it the low technicalities or production cost? But I guess I'll still watch it one of these days ... I wan't to see the version in film.

I am a certified summer person

The week is still like "today raining, tomorrow sunny" ... but I am so happy it's summer still ... I have to seize it before winter comes again. I came from a tropical country and it's really smoking hot there in summer.

And for this coming week and so, I would be even happier (Yey!), If we pushed through on going out of town I'll post the pictures here and share it with you.

I am a Summer Person!

You are energetic, outgoing, and active. You love to be out and about... hanging out with friends or getting things done. Summer is the perfect time for you to be as hyper as you want to be. In fact, during the rest of the year you feel half-asleep!
