Books are expensive! Any tips on how to fund or cut down on the cost of college text books? Just thought I'd ask. Kinda getting sick of spending so much on books, when tuition is expensive enough as it is. thanks.

daninuk Some of the tricks I've found over the years have really helped me cut down onm y textbook expenses. The first, and probably easiest, is to share a textbook with a classmate. It's not just a good way to cut your expense in half, but it's also a great way to...

Homework for students

holdingfast @holdingfast (117) • Philippines 19 Sep 10

Department of Education in the Philippines see the need to unload students of homework during weekends. Do you agree with this?

homework

students

daninuk I don't agree with the idea. I feel that homework is an integral part of the education process and it helps students retain information outside of class. I also feel that homework on a regular basis helps students develop better study skills. Whether an...

daninuk Actually, i'm still in college right now. As a student, I feel like I'm a combination of a number of different "student profiles". I want good grades, so i work hard and do what I need to do in order to get the marks I want. However, I'm also laid back to the...

daninuk We don't have a landline phone anymore. We got rid of it when we moved out of our house and started renting property. We considered getting a line initially, but we eventually decided that it would just be another unnecessary expense because my aunt and I both...

Do you love to wear skirts or pants?

iamdee @iamdee (158) • Philippines 18 Sep 10

I admit that I am quite conservative in wearing clothes. I am not really fond of wearing above the knee skirts. I prefer to use pants. I don't really feel comfortable wearing skirts. I only wear skirts when we go to church but...

daninuk I definitely prefer pants over skirts. I just feel more comfortable in a pair of jeans than I do in a flowy skirt. It's just that I don't have to worry about whether my skirt is too short or if I'm showing far too much skin. I don't think that wearing skirts...

hoarder

snowy @snowy22315 (182175) • United States 18 Sep 10

Hoarding is a form of OCD. It causes people to hang ounto possesions that are no longer useful and keeps their house cluttered, and unhealthy. I admit to having a minor hoarding issue myself, but I know people who have severe...

daninuk I personally don't know anyone who is a full-blown hoarder, but I know that they have shows on TV who have this issue. If anything, I think that the first step to getting over hoarding would be to admit that you are a hoarder and ask for help. You would also...

ruelandkim @ruelandkim (24) 17 Sep 10

daninuk I think that saving money is a good idea, but it probably requires more to become a millionaire. For one, you might also have to invest some of your money in order for it to grow at a proper rate. My family members have tried to save money for the length of...

Why lot's of girls love a married man?

careguarden @careguarden (5670) • Philippines 24 Aug 10

In my point of view, lot's of people love the married people even if they know that it is not right. What do you think about it?

life

love

relationship

daninuk I think it's a number of things. For one, the man has already shown that he is able to settle down into a family. Although technically, if a married man gets involved in an adulterous relationship, he obviously still has commitment issues that need to be taken...

As a wife, would you prefer to be working or just stay at home & be a housewife?

niceurdaneta @niceurdaneta (50) • Philippines 4 Sep 10

Some wives prefer to have their own career even though they are already married while others would prefer to stay at home and take care of the house and the kids. Which path would you like to take once you get married?

career

wife

daninuk I'm not a wife yet, so I can't say I can answer your question with the opinion of someone who is experienced with having to take care of a family. However, I do think about it sometimes. I'm fairly ambitious and I want to do a lot with my life, but at the same...

daninuk Although I myself am not a proponent of online dating, I can't totally put it down. I know what you mean by people not showing who they really are or depicting their true selves in their profiles. But part of me still thinks that there might be a possibility,...

which is braver thing to do?

pitsieriray @pitsieriray (130) • Philippines 17 Sep 10

i just want to know what is braver thing to do between 'leaving someone for you to love another' or 'letting go of someone for him or her to be with someone he or she love' i just want to know opinions. feel free to express it!...

daninuk I think that both actions require a great amount of bravery from a person. leaving the one you're with to be with somebody you truly love means that you have to get away from your comfort zone and venture into something that could be uncertain. It also means...

What would you do with a dress made of duct tape?

Heather Echola @GardenGerty (160949) • United States 15 Sep 10

Evidently duct tape was a category for fair entries at the state fair this year. There were pursed and pants, and even a dress made from duct tape. Not your old fashioned duct tape, mind you, but colorful stuff. I want to know...

daninuk I wouldn't wear it. If I see someone on the streets with a duct tape dress on, then props for them. But personally, I feel itchy just thinking about how uncomfortable such a dress might be. I can't help but imagine it sticking onto my skin, and then being...

Do you think that fame and fortune are important in life?

Pose123 @Pose123 (21635) • Canada 15 Sep 10

It has been said that those who achieve fame, fortune, position or power in life often find that something is still lacking. When we learn more about their lives, we find that only a few have weathered the storms of life as well...

daninuk I don't think fame and fortune are necessarily important in life, but a lot of people generally seek it in order to feel some type of fulfillment and satisfaction in their lives. For me, personally, fame is something that I generally don't concern myself with....

Do you like to leave a message to the answering machine?

youless @youless (112586) • Guangzhou, China 13 Sep 10

daninuk The only time I actually leave messages on answering machines is when I'm calling a landline phone. If I'm calling someone's cellphone, I pretty much expect them to call me back if they see that they got missed call from me. I do the same thing when I miss...

Cutie18f @Cutie18f (9546) • Philippines 14 Sep 10

daninuk I'll be honest and say that I find it hard to be punctual at times. I tend to overexert myself and spread my time out way too much, thinking that I can do certain things in a shorter amount of time than is actually possible. Of course, I realize that this...

Which do you prefer: English? or Math?

iamdee @iamdee (158) • Philippines 11 Sep 10

daninuk Personally, I prefer English over Math. It's not because I don't understand it. In fact, I'm actually pretty good at grasping numerical concepts when I apply myself on the task. However, reading and writing just strike me as so much more creative. I feel like...
