What is your daily commute like?  What is the weirdest thing you've seen on that commute? 
Submitted by E. 

40 minutes drive each way .. not much time to look at things as I am busy driving.. the commute is okay during school holidays like now as there's not much traffic jams.. and better than the commute I used to make before I got married as I lived with my family then.. an 1h 15 mins drive each way..

What are your irrational fears? 
Submitted by Dan Culhane.  

1) Choking on a fish bone.. don't bring me to eat seafood ok.. I take a verryyyyyyy long time

2) Choking on something else....

3) Loved ones leaving me.. being alone in this world..

4) Heights.. a 1 year stint working with an internet service provider .. helping to install wireless antennas helped a bit in facing that fear..

5) Slimy bugs.. caterpillars.. worms.. ewwwww.. :(

6) Speaking in front of people.. talking to strangers..

7) Seeing violence.. whether people fighting or things.. :(

What experience or moment in your life have you learned the most from?

It must have been learning to not take crap from people anymore.. after being pushed & bullied from when I was a small kid in school.. I just decided that I wasn't going to give people the time of the day anymore. So, if people do aggravate or make me mad.. I just shut them out, make as though they don't exist or.. when I was studying, get even. I remember when I was doing my Diploma.. my results for the 1st test of my C programming class wasn't that good.. it was so-so.. and this one guy (big jerk until today) said.. "Haa.. that Azura can't do programming for anything.." needless to say, I got even in the 2nd test for C programming by getting 49.5 out of 50.. shutting the guy up and giving me great satisfaction that I accomplished something :)
