5000ml It would be very odd for me if I was afraid of black cats, as our cat is completely black except for a few stray white hairs. She's very beautiful to look at, very lean and elegant. In some countries black cats give good luck as well!

5000ml No, we turn off all the lights when we go out, including the christmas tree lights. I'm scared of it causing a fire and most of all, I'm trying to keep down our electricity bill and leaving the lights on when no-one is home is just a frivolous waste of money....

5000ml I normally wait with medicine, the only thing I'll take for a cold would be paracetamol for the headache and sore throat I always get. I combine this with hot tea with honey. Anything else doesn't help anyway, I can't avoid getting the cold once I've felt the...

Touching LOVE STORY you've ever watched?

rianhid36 @rianhid36 (78) • Indonesia 11 Dec 11

5000ml I thought Moulin Rouge and Amélie were the most touching love stories I've seen so far. Moulin Rouge of course not having much of a happy ending, but Amélie ends well.

5000ml I wouldn't call them lucky, having a baby isn't vacation ;) It's very hard work, especially the first couple of weeks and if they're only allowed a month off it's not much compared to the maternity leave most countries can offer (at least two months).

Where does your hate for 'the sense of entitlement' come from?

bounce58 @bounce58 (17385) • Canada 20 Nov 11

I think this discussion is just my way to rationalize my hate. And justify why I hate people that have this sense. I've been reminded again today that there are just people around me who still think they are the 'center of the...

5000ml I feel hate is too strong a word, but I do dislike people who feel entitled when they don't. This is because I regard everyone as equal, no-one is better or worse than me and so everyone deserves the same. The people who regard themselves as the center of the...

Do you like sweets or salty and savoury

tessa9 @tessa9 (1085) • Philippines 16 Nov 11

I like baking a lot. I bake at least three times a week. I don't have anyone to eat what I bake though I just bake like 5 cookies at a time. The thing that is weird for me is I actually like salty things better. I will gladly...

5000ml My immediate preference will always be salty and savoury although sometimes I will crave something sweet. I however don't have a sweet tooth and probably eat much less chocolate than the average person! I try not to indulge in too many very salty foods as this...

5000ml I think drinking water at all times is very good for your health. I think in the morning it might be good because you have fasted throughout the night and the extra water helps get rid of any built up toxins.

5000ml Take care with cinnamon, you don't want to take too much of it as it can cause uterine stimulation so take it with moderation. Secondly, you started off quite thin like me (52 kg) and I was told it's normal that small women like us gain quite a lot of weight....
