My milk at my workplace, right on my desk 

There are times when I am too busy, too sleepy, too tired, too weary to prepare dinner. There are even times when my fragile heart gets  smashed and picking the pieces up means I have to just cry silently, without any energy to get up and prepare dinner. Yes, there are nights when I just go to bed without getting a decent meal. And because of these reasons, I always keep at least three Tetra-Pak of Bear Brand sterilized full cream milk in my room. I would just consume one before I go to bed, and its nutrients are more than enough to power me up until the following morning, when I feel fresh and renewed, ready to face the day.

I like this because it’s neither too sweet nor too creamy. There are some that are flavored, but I prefer this natural milk taste and smell.

One thing I noticed about this milk is that, about 2 minutes after I take my first sip, I get drowsy. It helps me feel so relaxed.

I don’t recommend going to bed without eating any nutritious meal, but if or when, due to many reasons you inevitably skip a meal, make sure to drink Bear Brand sterilized so that your body won’t get deprived of the nutrients it needs while you recuperate.

Eating Coffee (Whaattt?!)

By -Elizabeth D. Andres

  Coffee Picture 1 Coffee Picture 2 I eat coffee. You read it right. I EAT coffee beans the way you eat your popcorn. I also eat ground coffee. I eat all types of coffee grinds. I would like to state first that I don’t own a percolator (I have one but it’s 15 hours away by bus and this is another story. Hahaha). I just boil ground coffee in a small pot (the pot you use when you go camping), and pour it to my coffee cup while straining it at the same time. March 2020, the lockdown due to Covid 19 was implemented. At that time, I was still adjusting to the “new normal” and, amidst the confusion and uncertainties, even the most basic task felt like an enormous duty.   One day I got too lazy to even look for my metal coffee strainer, so I just poured the freshly brewed coffee into my cup, with all the unstrained coffee grounds which I ate, of course. I instantly liked the bitter taste of the coarsely ground coffee and its creamy aftertaste. Soon, I was eating one half tub of ground coffe

Le Minerale

No doubt—all drinking water brands in the market ARE GOOD. We have distilled, purified, and mineral  water, to name only a few. I honestly do not know the difference among those, or maybe because I did not care to know. It was enough for me to know that all of those drinking water out there on the shelves are safe, FDA-approved, and healthy. In January 2020, due to my constant eating of coffee beans, the insides of hell spewed out from my stomach. The bitter fluid or whatever-it-was that I was vomiting out  was maybe a dragon’s poop, for it tasted worse than hell. After taking Kremil-S and eating some soup, finally, I felt better. And then, my sister and her husband arrived, and they gave me Le Minerale. I grew up in a very remote countryside, and I experimented with anything that fascinated me. I know the taste of rainwater, river water, water from the puddle, water from the deep well, and water from the artesian well. The moment I drank Le Minerale, I knew it was mountain water

Quite, Pretty, Rather, Fairly + Adjective

By -Elizabeth D. Andres

To inquire about my classes, or for a trial lesson, email me at acewld@gmail.com   Some students of English as a Second Language sometimes struggle with adverbs and adjectives . Here are the four most frequently used adverbs that are usually followed by adjectives.  The words quite , pretty , rather , and fairly function as adverbs when they are placed before an adjective . They express to which extent something is.   Take a look a the following examples: It’s quite hot today. It’s pretty hot today. It’s rather hot today. It’s fairly hot today. Quite hot , pretty hot , rather hot , and fairly hot all mean “not very hot, but a little hotter than usual.”   A very important note: In SPOKEN ENGLISH, Quite can mean Completely IF you put much stress and emphasis in the accent when you pronounce it. If you want to use QUITE as an adverb which means completely, you can use it with the following adjectives, arranged alphabetically. quite amazing= completely ama
