Summer is almost over, but sun burn is here to stay! Whether it be on the beach, or when you're commuting, the lack of sunblock will leave you overly burnt like your cheeks (and err whole body) is excessively blushing.

Easy Peasy Guide to Not Getting Mugged

The road is full of unpredictable people. Sometimes you meet pleasant ones who smile at you if you stare at them too long (though I find this awkward and just plain freaky), other times it's a thief who wants your goodies. I don't have a car so I've got no choice but to learn literal street smarts to go home with complete belongings after a day's exploration.

For the Love of Humanity!




I once saw a documentary on the service team giving extra ingredients to food and drinks. At the store's backroom, one gargled and spit on coffee, the other rubbed their unclean hands on food before serving it to an angry customer, with a smile on their face. Ah revenge is sweet!

This show was in the US but I'm pretty sure it happens around the world.  I personally know someone who does something similar when the customer is extremely rude. The unlucky guy could be you for all I know. 



Whenever I eat out and the service is painfully slow (the kind where 2 coats of paint will dry on the wall mmm fun stuff), I politely ask for a followup. Deep down I want to flip the table with my flimsy arms and yell my complaint. Still it's never a good idea to risk getting sabotaged food.

Everyone has bad days which sometimes results to poor service. Maybe they're undermanned, their boss is a tough cookie, their dog died, or they're just really exhausted


Unless you have something urgent after your meal, like your lover told you to meet under the bridge at exactly 7PM if you still love him (oh soap operas!) be considerate, wait and enjoy the company of your friends at the table.

So for the love of humanity, let us lessen chances of revenge, getting bad karma, or whatever you want to call it. Be nice to everyone. Love bunnies rainbows and unicorns.
