I bet that some of you misses my tidbits article right?! I know some of you do and I sometimes do miss writing some tidbits article because they allows me to discuss or share my opinions on more than one topics and not just one topic alone which can be very boring on some days but nonetheless I have decided that I have kept all of you waiting for too long for a new tidbits article so here it is once again. First before I get into it, I want to apologize for having all of you waiting forever for a new tidbits article from me and a few reasons that I haven’t written a tidbits article for a very while. I have been very busy with many things such as the fact that it is summer so many of you know that summer usually is when everybody goes out doing some activities and enjoy their summer around with their family or friends somewhere on vacations as most usually do but for me I have been almost too busy to do anything that I would like or usually do. From the beginning of the summer I started seeing an ex of mine whom I loved for several years since we both were pre-teenagers which that means younger than the age of twelve (12), over a decade later we both started seeing each others but there were obstacles that gets in the way and sadly my wish of having her back in my life didn’t happen as she have disappeared which she did few times every few years when I tried to get her back. In the beginning of the summer, she have started visiting here where we’d hang out together with some of her children which I had fun knowing them and I thought that everything goes smooth but then as the summer is coming to an end it seems that either that I have lost her or losing her because she have stopped talking to me for some reason that I am unknown of.
No, I am alright and thank you for asking! It’s saddening but nothing I can do about that though. Anyway in case if you don’t know what tidbits article is all about, the definition of tidbit(s) is a bit of everything and than just one thing alone so tidbits article is where I will discuss and share some of my opinions or thoughts on different topics instead of just one. Keep in mind that tidbit is a bit of everything so that means more than just one topic and that intend to make it a long reading for an article so I hope that’s ok with you.
Tidbits 8/5/2016
For tidbits, here are a few of topics that I will be discussing, sharing my opinions or thoughts and maybe analyze some of the things if some topics pops up in my head that I need to analyze so since I haven’t written tidbits article in a very long I hope that you will enjoy this one. I have written a few tidbits article on here so if you are interested in reading more tidbit articles you can do so by doing a search at the top of the website on here by typing “tidbits” in the search field and from there it should show you list of few tidbits with specific dates that I wrote the tidbits.I am sure that some of you in your mind questions how can Deaf or Hard of Hearing be able to have a relationship with anyone because some of the Deaf and Hard of Hearing individuals can only communicate using their native language which is American Sign Language. Several people would remind or tell you that the most important key in the relationship, to have a healthy relationship and such is communication. Sure other keys would be trust along with communication but I believe that communication is probably the most important out of all other words that some of the people have given you advice for your relationship or your future relationship because miscommunication can end a relationship with a bad taste. I understand that it’s one of several odd questions that the people has for anyone who is Deaf or Hard of Hearing and their relationship especially if they are in relationship with somebody who isn’t Deaf or Hard of Hearing which we call them hearie aka hearing.
Deaf or Hard of Hearing and Relationship
As far as the Deaf or Hard of Hearing relationship with somebody else who isn’t Deaf or Hard of Hearing is almost no different from a relationship with both of the people who’s able to hear except different way of communication in the relationship such as the use of American Sign Language, writing papers, using smartphone or tablets to exchange words and others. Of course it’s common sense that the person who’s isn’t Deaf or Hard of Hearing would have to learn American Sign Language which Deaf or Hard of Hearing individuals would be more than happy to teach as learning the basics don’t take any longer than a week or two especially finger-spelling and finger-spelling is a start in learning more complex of American Sign Language. Nonetheless it would still be no different from the people who’s able to hear in a relationship except that the Deaf or Hard of Hearing would have to teach that person American Sign Language and in doing so often helps each others to have more feelings for each others because learning American Sign Language would make it more bonding for each others.
My advice for if you are a hearing person and you have an interest in someone who is Deaf or Hard of Hearing is be willing to learn their language which is American Sign Language but again not every Deaf or Hard of Hearing individuals know American Sign Language or any sign languages as some of them were raised orally where they would rely on lips reading more than anything and the significant others would have to be more patient to get used to hear that person’s voice to get used to it so to understand how that Deaf or Hard of Hearing speaks better down the road. So approach her or him who’s Deaf or Hard of Hearing as if you approach someone who can hear except make sure that you have a notepad or cell phone ready to exchange words with each others using your notepad or smartphone until that person teaches you sign language which you will start with finger-spelling before you begin to learn the complexity of sign languages.
Here is an excellent video by Rikki Poynter on how to interact with Deaf or Hard of Hearing people who that somewhat applies to the relationship with a person who happens to be Deaf or Hard of Hearing hence the communication.
Sennheiser HD598
Last weekend I have decided to buy a new headphone as my old headphone, Beats Pro by Dre because the right cups pad started to come off and near to be completely off as it’s about a quarter of the pad that’s still clamped inside the speaker so it was the time for me to find another headphone. I have had Beats Studio by Dre a couple or three years ago, the expendable thing snapped so it became unusable so I had no choice but to buy a new headphone about little over a year ago and I bought Beats Pro by Dre. Now just about a month ago the cups pad started to peeling off its cup so it tells me that it is about time to get another headphone, I did searched for a way to fix that by searching for a new cushion or pad whichever you prefer to call it for the Beats Pro by Dre but I couldn’t find the right one and that leaves me no choice but to get a new one. As I have been with Beats by Dre for a few years since I have bought two headphones from that company or from that person calls Dre (I know he’s musician) so as I realized that both headphones did not really last much long so I decided that it was the time to go with a different brand but if I am to do so that it must be a competitor or another top brand so I came across Sennheiser which is made in Germany I believe. So I had done research on different headphones by Sennheiser, I have come across three or four headphones by them that interests me so while doing some deep thinking of which one I should pick and narrowed it down to two which were the HD598 or the Urbanite which is a model that competes Beats by Dre headphones with same purpose. I did more research, carefully along with reading several reviews for two of these and I came to decide that I feel more interest in the HD598 because of the specifics that they offer in the HD598 although I am definitely holding the Urbanite on the side as I am planning on to buy Sennheiser Urbanite soon as it will be become my traveling or a mobile headphone so that I can baby the HD598 one better because the HD598 is or were the top line of all headphones although that is no longer the case now as they now have HD800 which looks to be amazing but very expensive as it costs over a thousand dollars while the HD598 costs around $150 so you get why I went with the HD598 one.
Nonetheless, Sennheiser HD598 is extraordinary and very light over-ear headphone I have ever owned. I am not going to deny that it easily beats the Beats Pro because it’s amazing when it comes to feeling the sounds (bass) but as been using Sennheiser’s HD598 for a few days of the week since I have bought has become my favorite headphone but I won’t say as easy in deciding that. Only what Sennheiser won me over is that the audio itself coming from the headphone is probably as accurate as I have ever heard, more than any Beats headphones I have owned and the Beats by Dre is more for the bass. Sennheiser has the both worlds of the audio and bass but Beats by Dre has the bass with acceptable audio sounds itself. If you want a good bass but a-okay audio sounds then that is Beats for you but if you want both worlds of the bass and unbelievable audio sounds itself then that is Sennheiser for you.
Democrat and Republican
I think that people misunderstood both political parties such as Democrat and Republican. Now republican is all about serving for the business while democrat is all about serving for the people so keep that in mind when you go to your voting place to vote for one of the presidential candidates. I am simply shocked to see how many people are misled to think that comparing between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton. I am baffled because I don’t think that you have done your research more carefully on both of the presidential candidates, you don’t just do research on one presidential candidates because that just don’t works that way as you should do research on both of the presidential candidates so that way you can understand and get to know both of them better to make a better judgement of yours when it comes to voting who you want to become the next president of the United States. Please note that I am not expert in politics as I am just one among some of you who does the research on both of the presidential candidates to try to decide which one I should be voting for and try to keep up with the politic news as often as I can so to keep update on what is going on with both of the presidential candidates.
To my understanding, Donald Trump have done far worse than Hillary Clinton. Sure, Hillary Clinton have done something that she shouldn’t have done in the first place but what’s important is that she admits them herself while every words that Donald Trump have spoken is all nothing but lies. I don’t actually think that Donald Trump have ever said anything that is true, while Hillary Clinton have said some of the truth herself and know the facts more than Donald Trump ever will know. Every topics that Donald Trump have spoken is inaccurate and some of the things that Hillary Clinton have spoken true so the question is do we want a president who have no knowledge while Hillary Clinton does? Seriously do your homework and it’s no wonder that Donald Trump is starting to lose very badly which I am sure that you aren’t aware of that as if you are one among some of these who don’t keep up with both presidential candidates.
Seriously, please keep up with the news and do your research on both presidential candidates. That is one of many reasons that search engines like Google exists so that you can do some research and know both presidential candidates better before deciding who you want to vote for.

Pokémon Go
If you don’t know this then you definitely have lived under a rock for too long. Pokémon Go is a game app that have skyrocketed higher than the sky itself as it have become the most downloaded app on iTunes which is like Android’s Google Play for Apple iOS devices. It is an amazing game, a game that actually have your children or even yourself as adult to get out of the house more often because you have to do so to search for some Pokemon and more fun things such as eggs or fighting with other players at the Pokémon’s Gym in some cities. I have played this game since a few days after the Pokémon Go app have been launched to the mobile’s world after it caught my attention when I saw it at number one in top gross list on iTunes which it got me curious and decided to downloaded the game to give it a try. At the first I wasn’t going to download the Pokémon Go because I was somewhat skeptical about it, I almost figured that it would just be these apps that becomes a flop but I surely was wrong as it continued being the number one app and still is to this day. So after trying it out for a few days, walking around searching for some Pokémon then capture them by throwing the Pokémon balls on the top of Pokemon’s head hoping that it’s been captured because sometimes it would escape then disappears especially if some of these Pokemon who have high numbers in strength and went to a few of Pokemon Shops to receive free stuff such as more Pokémon, eggs or others at every five minutes.
It’s addictive game, so be warned if you are thinking about to give Pokémon Go a try and if you are the beginner who want to have some lucky then I have a cheat for you to help you to have a fighting chance against other players at the gyms. Try to find as many as Eeevees you can then transfer the low strength ones to your trainer in return more candies for higher strength Eeevee so you can power them up to strength them. When you have over 200 or higher, the higher the better strength of Eeevees then there is three different types of Eevees that you can transform by renaming your eevees to evolve.
- Sparky for Jolteon
- Rainer for Vaporeon
- Pyro for Flareon
Vaporeon is strongest one of these three, although there are two more where it is said that during the day you can get Espeon which is physic and night-time for Umbreon which is Dark. But the problem is that no one have figured out the secrets to them both evolution of Eeevee yet, if you want strongest Eeevee then go for Vaporeon, strong then go for Flareon and Jolteon is the weakest evolution of Eeevee. As for Espeon or Umbreon, that is unknown as I haven’t done research on this yet but in my quick research it was said that getting Espeon or Umbreon is somewhat rare so you might not get one of them or you might end up be lucky to get one of them but it is known that if you want Espeon then evolve during daytime but if you want Umbreon then evolve during the nighttime.
If you haven’t downloaded the Pokémon Go app and played it then I suggest that you go ahead to download it to give it a try! Here is both versions for both operating systems.
Teen Wolf
What a show! I am so shocked to find out that it’s somewhat old TV shows, I wasn’t aware of that TV shows until I discovered Teen Wolf on Amazon Prime and decided to give it a try to see if it is any interesting which it ended up to be so interesting to the point that I have watched all the seasons within’ two weeks as there are six seasons for Teen Wolf on Amazon Prime. It is about a boy teenager who gotten bite by one alpha wolf in the forest and was injured by it as you know in most of the movies or TV shows that if you aren’t going to get killed by them that you would end up becoming one of them in the next day. So that boy named Scott who was bitten by an alpha wolf became beta wolf and well I am not going to spoil this so I just recommend that you watch this TV shows because it’s very awesome TV shows although it’s unbelievable that I have never heard of the TV shows until a few years later. I am saddened to hear that the sixth seasons is the final, however there are some rumors that they are going to renew it for the seventh seasons which is something that I really hope that they will do so because Teen Wolf is a few of the TV shows that definitely deserves a renewal for another season.
If you haven’t watched Teen Wolf, I suggest that you do so by watching it on Amazon Prime. Unfortunately Teen Wolf isn’t on any other streaming services such as Netflix or Hulu as I have all three streaming services so it is safe to say that it is only available on Amazon Prime but good news is that there are Teen Wolf seasons DVD that you can buy if you are interested in buying them which I still will recommend even that they are on DVD because it will worth the money although it’s cheaper on Amazon Prime as it costs $99 a year for Amazon Prime subscription along with other perks such as free 2-days shipping every orders you make, free services such as books and a few more.
Summer Is Ending
It is saddening that the summer is coming to an end as the month August is when the students, staffs and teachers usually go back to school. I hope that all of you had a blast as it was great while it lasts although I didn’t do much such as go four wheeling, which I did so only a couple of times but I still plan on to ride more as I am just waiting for the weather to cool down because I am not a heat person and I think I am somewhat glad that I graduated back in 2005. Did any one of you have a blast in the summer? If you did then please leave a comment below and if you have any photos or videos that you would like to share with me of your summer then please share the link to it such as Flickr, Instagram or Facebook.
Over To You
I am sorry to say this but I must end this as it’s getting late for me here. I had planned on to write three or four more topics in this article but as they says the timing is everything so I will have to hold on to three or four of these topics and add more topics for the next tidbits article! Who knows it may be tomorrow or on Sunday?! That depends on if I am busy or being able to find some time to do so unless I have heard of something else that I have to share my opinions about something with you or giving a review on something if I got something this weekend which I doubt that I would. Anyway I truly appreciate you all for your patience in waiting for my next tidbits article, I know I haven’t written one in a very long time and I am somewhat aware that this article probably isn’t much of interesting article as it was in my head until I typed in here. But please feel free to leave a comment below here and if you have any idea on what topics I should write in my next tidbits article then please let me know by leaving a comment below here in the comments section!
