Lead Your Retirement Years With The Perfect Pension Plan
You are born a child, carefree and happy. Then you become an adult with a bucket of responsibilities to carry around. Soon you become old. Then again you are carefree and happy, it’s almost like you get to live your childhood again. They say retirement is wonderful since you can do nothing and no one can reprimand you for that either.

My Adventures as a Pizza Delivery Driver
During the time that I have been delivering pizzas, I have acquired many regular customers. When I first started delivering pizzas, I worked the evening shift and now, since the first of this year, I was put on the day shift. Several of the customers would ask for me to deliver their food to them, when they called the store and placed their order. Although now that I am on the day shift at work, I now have the same thing going on as I did working the evening shift and more regular customers, which is wonderful.

The Price of Education and Teaching: Part V
I knew I'd get in touch with my former high school teacher, and I was anxiously looking forward to it. It was always great talking to her because she was always positive and encouraging; she had more faith in me than I did, and she always asked to keep in touch. I don't even remember spending time with my siblings, especially since they lived with different relatives, and now different cities as well.

Love to Cook, Hate to Eat
Let me start off by saying I love food, cooking, and everything in between. I'm passionate about where my ingredients come from, the farmers who grow or raise my products, and I'm borderline obsessed with keeping up with the newest creations and innovations in the culinary world. I just don't normally like eating. Contradictory, I know, but bear with me.

Funlearn
I was reading about the importance of people having fun recently — hence the title. Well, yes, it may be obvious, people work better, learn better, live better when they have fun. So when and why have we then lost the habit of including fun in our work life (or academic life, for that matter) without feeling guilty about it, as if having fun correlated with work or learning is equal to actually not working and not learning?

My Adventures as a Pizza Delivery Driver
If you have ever been robbed of anything before, it is one of the worst feelings in the world. Having said that, my story begins. First of all, let me give you a brief description of what kind of car I deliver pizzas in. My car came from an automotive auction, and the only key that I have ever had to the car is the ignition key. No door key, no trunk key. The right front fender is bent all out of whack and is held on with a zip tie. Also, there is no front grill on my car. Oh, by the way, the car is a Honda.
