America's #1 People Search

For me, a good mentor shows a desire and a willingness to give up time to help others, maintains a positive outlook, yet is able to be realistic and have a strong interest in their own growth and self-development.

I have a teacher and she really made a difference in my life. She is the reason why I was successful with my career now. Her name is Mrs. Erlinda Juan. She was once my high school teacher in Science. She taught me of good morals and right conducts aside from teaching me Science subject. She always encourages me to study well and be good to others.

I am now a professional engineer in a semiconductor company in my country and I have lost contact with her. I am just thankful when my friend asks me to visit MyLife website and search for my lost mentor. Now I have some time chatting with her in my free time.

Fruit Salad

We all know that there are many different fruits to choose from, thus the possibilities really are endless when it comes to putting together a fruit salad.

I like fruit salad aside from macaroni salad. Fruit salad is a great way for kids to get vitamins and nutrients they need. I let my daughter to choose which varieties she would like to see join forces in their bowl, then I top with a dollop of yogurt and nuts and/or granola for a little protein.

Here’s a recipe for my favorite fruit salad:

INGREDIENTS:
1 pint fresh strawberries, sliced
1 pound seedless green grapes, halved
3 bananas, peeled and sliced
1 (8 ounce) container strawberry yogurt

DIRECTIONS

1. In a large bowl, toss together strawberries, grapes, bananas, and strawberry yogurt. Serve immediately.
