ballerina18 I've always heard that carrots are very healthy for the eyes. Carrots are not a fruit, but it's still supposed to be good for you. ;) I've also heard that bluberries, apricots, and cantaloupe are good for the eyes. Other than that.. I'm not sure.

All else fail

sethalex @sethalex (153) • Philippines 12 Jan 12

What do you do when you're feeling that the world is against you, when all else are not falling what is planned, when you feel like you have done your best but still it doesn't work? Is it enough to end it all?

ballerina18 Hi sethalex. I've totally been there before. I understand how you are feeling. When the world gets me down, the best thing that helps me is to think about people suffering in other parts of the world. In particular, I read stories of the suffering in...

ballerina18 Personally, I do not believe in making 'new years resolutions'. I prefer, rather, to make goals for the year. I have a few goals for 2012. My first goal is to start working out at least 3 times a week. I want to lose weight, but more than that I want to get in...

ballerina18 Personally, I have never gotten the hang of text messaging. I am so bad at texting! Haha! So, I can honeslty say that I am not a text messaging addict. I have friends who text all the time though who say that it is very addicting.

Are you fond of horoscopes?

jadoixa @jadoixa (1166) • Philippines 12 Jan 12

Today, i turned on the TV and tuned it to this morning show and I saw a segment of their show that tells about these horoscopes. I used to be fond of it when I was younger and kind of believe it's true or would be true but...

ballerina18 I pretty much think horoscopes are a load of BS. Whenever I have read horoscopes in the paper, more than one description from different birthdates could be applicable to my personality. Yeah, basically I think horoscopes are a waste of time ;-)

Do you negotiate?

sarahruthbeth22 @sarahruthbeth22 (43143) • United States 12 Jan 12

I do not. If I see the price of an item and it is too high, I just assume it isn't for me and I walk away.Why put a price that is too high Just to get people to negotiate? If I got the seller to agree to a lower price I would feel...

ballerina18 I think there are appropriate places and times to negotiate. For example, when purchasing a new car the buyer has an opportunity to negotiate a price. I think it simply depends on the item one is purchasing.

what are your first steps towards financial freedom?

tinker_bel @tinker_bel (297) • Philippines 10 Jan 12

hi everyone, i was just reading this article about financial freedom and i am really convince that we must all strive to be financially stable. however the big question is how and where to start :(

ballerina18 I think it is wise to learn how to save while still young. If you are currently employed and are financially able to put 10-15% of your monthly paycheck into a savings account then do so! If you use credit cards it is important to know how to use them wisely....

Teaching kids 'home' skills

GreenMoo @GreenMoo (11833) 10 Jan 12
