Free Online Classes

villageanne @villageanne (8553) • United States 14 Feb 07

I love online classes. It is an opportunity to gain knowledge any time of the day or night. I am a firm believer in gaining all the knowledge that I can. The fact that these classes are free is an added bonus. Currently,...

braceface I am a sucker for free online classes, when I was unemployed, I used my free time learning stuff online, like making webpages, I took up only the basics of writing codes, it was fun learning all those. Now I dont have the time anymore so, too bad.

The most important step to frugal living.

happythoughts @happythoughts (4109) • United States 14 Feb 07

I think that the best advice to embrace frugal living is to be thankful. If you are happy with what you have you will not feel like you need more. My Grandma grew up in a house half the size of mine and she loved every minute...

braceface Frugal living is a lifestyle, I grew up that way, I saw how my mom managed our house and us kids, I thought it was normal that she would ration everything. But she did it without making us kids feel that we're missing out on anything. We were happy and we...

Could You Use A Bunk Bed?

villageanne @villageanne (8553) • United States 16 Feb 07

I remember when I was a child at home, we had a bunk bed in the boys bed room for them to sleep in. It was a great way to have a bed in a small space. When our children got old enough, we purchased a bunk bed for our two...

braceface That's so funny, I have the same experience, only difference is, our bunk bed is still here, I no longer share it with my brother, so I moved to the lower bunk (convenient in case you need to pee at night), the upper bunk, I use it for storage. I don't hate it...

braceface Wow, among those four, I would have to say it's a tie between Lost and Prisonbreak. These two shows really got me hooked to the tube. But all these shows are under different categories(drama, suspence, sitcom, cartoon), so It's fair to say that those mentioned...

Is being "single" such a bad thing?

browneyedgiri68 @browneyedgiri68 (104) • United States 14 Feb 07

Is there something wrong with being single and enjoying it? It seems that there is alot of emphasis on being a "couple" all the time. Especially on Valentine's Day. Are single people just bitter people who have given up on finding...

braceface Insecurity is definitely one of the reasons why people stay in bad relationships, and as for being single, it's not such a bad thing... that's IF you look at the bright side. You can spend more time with friends, no one to pick fights with, more time to post...

braceface I do have a skincare regimen, but it's mainly just washing my face at night with Cetaphil. I have sensitive skin so I don't use just any product on my skin, I've also tried using Olay Total Effects and I also got that itchy feeling, so I stopped using it.

How old were you when you got your license?

chromecowgirl37 @chromecowgirl37 (283) • United States 11 Feb 07

braceface It's not a big deal where I came from. I got my license when I was 23. It's just not the norm here in Manila to let teenagers drive. Parents feel they're not mature enough to handle that responsibility.

What do you think of people with teeth braces?

Why am I watching this show?

jbrowsin66 @jbrowsin66 (1321) • United States 7 Feb 07

Are the auditions so far worthy of TELEVISION? C'mon, I love music and watching watching great singers compete, but this is just a waste of air time.

braceface It's not a waste of air time, if it is then Fox would have not bothered airing seasons 2-5. I think it's hilarious! and it helps discover some hidden talents in America. The auditions that they've so far shown, is the first round so it's no surpise that a...

Paula Abdul

brandi_girl_16 @brandi_girl_16 (624) • United States 8 Feb 07
