2346479956?profile=originalHave you heard of NaNoWriMo? This is the short form for National Novel Writing Month. Every November, at least 300,000 people try to write the first draft of a novel in just 30 days. To complete this personal challenge, NaNoWrimo participants have to write 50,000 words between November 1-30. 

I've always wondered what it would be like to write a novel so quickly. My first novel took me ten years to outline, draft, revise (a million times), polish, edit, and publish! This year, since I'm feeling a

COCONUT PALM! TREE OF LIFE!

The coconut palm, Cocos nucifera, belongs to the family Arecaceae or some people call it the Palmae family. Actually, the fruit of this superlative palm is botanically defined as a drupe that consists of three outer most layers such as: exo-carp, meso-carp and endo-carp respectively. In the case of coconut (actually, the word “nut” is a mis-terminology in this case), the endo-carp is a hard shell. Most of the higher plants could basically be divided into three sections such as: the root system,

TEA! A MIRACLE PLANT!

The tea plant is not a bush in nature, but a medium size tree.

Today, tea is a commercial plantation that is distributed in many parts in the globe.

Before you speak!

 

*Do you take these steps before speaking?

*How many of the people you know consider these steps before speaking?

Emptiness

“As a rule, man is a fool, When it's hot, he wants it cool; When it's cool, he wants it hot, Always wanting what is not…” As what the poem signifies, human by nature has infinite desires, that when once fail to acquire, will cause him great torment of a feeling of enmity and loss; in short Emptiness.  What is Emptiness?

There are not many keys on my keychain.  It says that my way of life is simple. There aren't many doors or locks I need to open, and it also shows that I like my bag lightweight, so I usually leave the keys I don't in use at home.  

One of the keys is my steel horse (motorbike) key, which tells that I need it to go to work every day. It's a good partner that is always ready for me no matter how the weather is, taking me to the places I need to be. I really appreciate it.   

The other two keys, a p
