If you’re going to share your place with someone, what gender would you prefer?

iskayz @iskayz (5420) • Philippines 17 Sep 09

If you happen to live alone, would it be ok for you to share your home with someone? Say a friend, a relative or even a sibling? Me, I would prefer sharing my home with a woman. Not because I am a woman myself but I don’t like my...

cbakin20 I'd definitely like to share my house with a woman, and most definitely not a family member. While I was growing up, my parents and my sister were always on my back for not keeping a clean and organized room, but I just had it organized in my own way! They...

levite @levite (1062) • Philippines 17 Sep 09

Have you heard about aspartame and sucralose? They are ingredients in making artificial sweeteners, diet softdrinks and energy drinks with no sugar added. They are alternatives to sugar. But are they safe to our health? According...

artificial sweeteners

cbakin20 I think that these artificial sweeteners are not good for you at all. I have never thought that this fake sure is a good idea and this is just more proof that I was right. Eating fake food can't be good for you at all, and I don't think it can be good...

Would you still use your PC/Laptop even if you don't have Internet?

Redhornet117 @Redhornet117 (1248) • Philippines 17 Sep 09

Me, I probably won't. I have a computer at work and I use it for making and printing reports and that's almost 95% of my usage for it. I use my laptop at home for internet related matters. Without the internet, I'd probably won't...

cbakin20 I would definitely still use my laptop, although it wouldn't be nearly as fun. I do a lot of stuff on the internet when I'm using my laptop. I do have a few games that I play offline, but those aren't nearly as common as the games I play online and the other...

cbakin20 That's really sad, especially if they hadn't seen each other for a year. I feel kinda bad for her, because he really should have remembered to at least give her a hug. There's nothing wrong with that and it's a really important little thing that he can do. At...

How can one save money successfully?

aixshaonline @aixshaonline (600) • Philippines 15 Sep 09

No matter how hard I try, I just can't seem to save enough money. Every time I do save something, it quickly disappears. I just can't help but think that money seems to seep through my fingers like water! I know that I'm not the...

cbakin20 I usually am pretty good at saving money. I have managed to keep most of the money that I've made of the past year and only buy a few things that weren't absolutely necessary. I have found, though, that saving money usually takes a lot of self control. There...

resssaaa @resssaaa (445) • Philippines 15 Sep 09

cbakin20 Well, I'm sure they won't have too much trouble moving on. They're probably old enough to be starting to move away from the books anyway. It's almost like they're growing out of them, but I don't think anyone can truly grow out of the Harry Potter books. But...

cbakin20 The English on MyLot is not the best to study from. There are too many people who only know a little bit of English or use online translators in order to post. I try my hardest to use correct grammar and punctuation, but even that is not a given for most...

cbakin20 I would not want to leave this era. It is too much fun sitting on my computer and just relaxing. So I wouldn't want to go back to an older era. I would think about possibly going into the future, but even then I probably wouldn't. In the future there are going...

cbakin20 They are obviously not trying to keep you from washing, they just want to find a way to tell you about dirty shower heads. This is more of a warning to keep your shower head clean and take regular showers, if anything. All the bacterial will get washed away if...

cbakin20 I have not noticed that liars always get found out. Actually, I've found that it is quite the opposite. Liars often don't get found out and they are the most prosperous because they are not scared to do anything. When they do get found out, they are masters of...

cbakin20 I don't think it has actually changed too much. Even traditionally, there wasn't much of a relationship during the day. It was always work during the day, and then have time for the relationship stuff at night. That is still the way it should be now. Some...

cbakin20 Yeah, I haven't ever had any trouble sleeping. I can sleep just about anywhere, as long as I'm not too cold. That's the one thing that keeps me from sleeping. But I am not even very picky about that. I can sleep fine if I have a sweatshirt and long pants on,...

H1N1 School Frenzy

j00nior @j00nior (182) • Canada 14 Sep 09

I live in Canada and my University is paranoid over the H1N1 Influenza virus scare, are your schools afraid of the swine flu as well? We even have a little check box that asks us if we believe we have, or have come in contact with...

cbakin20 I can't say that I've ever woken up for longer than to just go to the bathroom in the middle of the night. I never have any trouble sleeping, I just stay up way too late in the first place and I'm too tired to waste any time sleeping! I really need a lot of...
