What animal do you find as the best pet to have?

mnk202 @mnk202 (338) • United States 31 Aug 09

I have had a few pets. The pet that I have found is the best is a dog. I think it is very true that a dog is a man's best friend. Especially when you raise them with alot of love and care and teach them how to love and care. They...

celestemichelle I love dogs, but since I live in an apartment I have a cat now. He's about a year old now and I love him. He cuddles with me for just a little bit in the evenings. Likes to play some, and the rest of the time just does silly things that make me laugh. I've...

Watching Films Where The Main Actors and Actresses Have Died

Brian @wolfie34 (26770) • United Kingdom 30 Aug 09

Do you ever find it eerie or weird watching a film and you know that the main actors or actresses or both in some cases are actually dead? Or do you not even think about it when watching an old film, or even a film where an...

celestemichelle It doesn't bother me in old movies, or if it was an older actor. What really gets me is when actors die during the filming, or before the release, like Heath Ledger or Brandon Lee (from The Crow). Then I get kind of sad seeing their movies. I also get sad when...

Going places barefoot

luckygirly @luckygirly (9) • United States 22 May 09

Over the past few years I've noticed how sandals and flip flops got popular, especial with the younger crowd (I would say late teens early 20's). Now since the weather has gotten warmer I'm seeing quite a few people in that age...

celestemichelle I'm always barefoot at home or in my yard, or when I go to check the mail. I've even done short hikes barefoot before, especially the ones along creeks with a lot of river rocks. I'm just more comfortable without shoes. I'm still not up for walking in stores...

Travelogues are intereting to read

cudamani @cudamani (996) • India 21 May 09

I find the travelogues are very interesting books to read because they present to us the very experience of the traveler and his or her exploits during the travel. If the travelogues are very well written we should find ourselves...

celestemichelle I've read several books about living a year in a foreign country. I enjoy them, and think they'd be helpful to read before traveling. Sometimes it's also interesting to read old travelogues about places to see how much the place, and opinions of it has...

Students coming very late to the school should be punished

cudamani @cudamani (996) • India 19 May 09

I feel that students who come late to the school should be punished by the teachers by giving them imposition or so. If they do that they will not repeat the mistake again and when they go to college also they will be punctual to...

celestemichelle Young kids have to rely on their parents to get them to school on time and it's sad to have to punish them when they have no control over when they get to school. My high school gave lunch detentions for showing up to any class late, and that worked...

celestemichelle I've always preferred dogs because they're friendlier and easier to train. But since we live in an apartment we got a cat named Loki. He's almost a year old now, and he's been a lot of fun. He's very active and playful, and will follow me around the house but...

bunnyhoover @bunnyhoover (406) • United States 13 May 09

seriously they are. try a 7 layer burrito with potatoes added and you will know. aside from the high sodium it's all fairly healthy and my goodness they are soooooo inexpensive. Science bless Taco Bell. What's your favorite?

celestemichelle The 7 layer burrito was my favorite in college. Cheap, good, and fast. Also, it was easy for my vegetarian friends to eat there since you can just substitute beans for meat on any of the meals. I don't eat Taco bell every often now, since there isn't one close...

celestemichelle I agree with you. I'm just not really into it. The films are alright, and I'll watch one if it's on TV, but that's about it. I avoided reading the books by telling everyone that I intended to read them in French, since they would be at an easy enough level to...
