I always feel that it's nice to help other people as much as we can. We'll never know if that little good deed that we had done can mean so much to other people.
Me and my friend were at the mall a while ago, and there was a woman with her grandmother trying to get onto the escalator. The grandmother had a staff on her left hand and was having a trouble trying to hold onto her granddaughter, resulting to her granddaughter getting on the escalator first and leaving her on the platform. I tried helping her and when we reached the bottom, she already had thanked me more than once.
It was just a good feeling being able to help someone, even just for something as simple as that. So why not try to do a simple good deed once in a while? Because in the end of the day, even if you feel like nothing's going right for you, one smile from a stranger or from someone you know can change your "bad" day to a "good" day. It may sound selfish, but when you don't think of the "rewards" while helping the person, I think that's good enough.

Ever wonder where to put away your old school books?
There was a book drive by Nuffnang and Ms. Joy Mendiola for the benefit of Nagkaisang Nayon Elementary School. As much as I wanted to donate some of my old school books, Taguig area is way too far from where I live so I have no way of getting there. Hopefully, there were alot of donations for the drive. It's always a better option to donate the books to the kids rather than wait for another "Ondoy" or "Pedring" to come by and destroy them books. =p

Here's the post at Nuffnang about this drive: read
Are there any book drives that you know? Share? =]
From my previous post, you would know that a friend and I joined the Grand Bazaar at the Elements Tent, Centris. Sadly, compared to the other conventions/bazaars I've been to, this was so far not the best advertised one.
It's quite disappointing really, since the organizers didn't do well with keeping stuff in order. For example, during the first day when leaving the venue, I had to bring home some of the items I'm selling since it's hard to leave it there for the night.
