Save The Planet? I.D.E.A | Comments Off
It's a good question. Why are we saving the planet? To save ourselves! The planet just sounds like a better way to make our effort sounds more glorifying.

Faith I.D.E.A | Comments Off
Particularly in God or gods, is a personal experience. If a group of people experienced "something" that make them feel warm and loved, and they believe in a religion, they are simply gathering with people who also received this warm and fuzzy feeling. But this feeling or warm, fuzziness, is not man-made. Human action can only act as the medium, but whether other people will receive the belief or not, is totally up to them. If they never receive the warm and loving feeling, they do not hold the same experience as religious people, and thus will require further evidence. For ...

Overrated I.D.E.A | Comments Off
When something / someone is "overrated", it's a view from the commentator's personal view, and it shouldn't mean anything to people who don't hold the same view. It's just personal opinion, because one can deem even the most trivial thing as "overrated". It's that simple.

When it comes to sleep, quality is way more important than quantity.

What To Do On Long Drive? I.D.E.A | Comments Off
For drivers? Personally, I try to make the drive fun by driving like a pro-racer. Not the speed, but the way to manage corners. You know what they say: "get in the turn early, and get out late". When you only have 1 lane to work with, it takes concentration and skills. Try it out next time when you go on a long drive.

Garage Sale For The Win I.D.E.A | Comments Off
Bad choices and things breaking down lead to items beginning to accumulate in the house. Thanks to the culture that nurtures private sales, garage sale or flee market (in Europe) are pretty popular among western countries. So as I begin organizing a garage sale attempting to get rid of some of the old items that we no longer use or need, I begin to really appreciate the culture. Garage sale for the win!

Why GSM? I.D.E.A | Comments Off
T-Mo & ATT use GSM, and Verizon uses CDMA. Different communication technology, so is the application and ubiquity. For me, knowing that GSM is used at more places worldwide, choosing GSM over CDMA is a fairly easy decision. See, many places in Europe and Asia all use GSM technology, so people who use GSM phones can simply bring their "unlocked" phones to another country, get a SIM card there and talk away. But it doesn't stop there. As mentioned before, GSM uses SIM card. What's good about this is, if your phone died or you want to change the phone you use, simply ...

Problem Solving I.D.E.A | Comments Off
Got a problem? Try go to the source. An old idom goes, "the bull must be taken by the horns". While it sounds better in Chinese, the meaning stays the same: eliminate the source, eliminate the problem. It's definitely harder, but the result is well worth it. But what about those times when the source of the problem is unknown or simply unreachable? Well, go as far as you can toward the source. The higher you choke, the more control you have. While it doesn't eliminate the problem, at least now you have more control than before.

Credit Card = A Necessity I.D.E.A | Comments Off
Whether you like it or not, credit cards are a necessity if you live in the U.S. Why? Because a lot of the purchases are based on your "credit scores", and without a good credit score, you are barred from many available services. The most recent event that happened to me is the application for new cell phones & services. First, they check the credit scores and determine whether you are "trusted" enough to apply for their standard services. Turns out, I was ineligible because I don't have a credit score (not to mention a good one!), due to the fact ...
