How important is taking a break for you?

viju0410 @viju0410 (2286) • India 3 Mar 12

Hi, We all are so much involved in our day to day work and at times we feel monotonous. Agreed, weekends can be relaxed ones but then we have to be ready for the next week. Recently I got a great chance to be off from...

jessmess After school and work, I find very little time to take a break. My weeks are nonstop and there's almost no free time. Any day that I have off to just relax is a gift and I try to make the most of it. Sometimes I just want to be lazy and stay inside, and others...

jessmess The night before, don't eat anything too heavy. Stick with pastas- it has plenty of carbohydrates. Drink plenty of water. Eat something filling like a banana a few hours before. I've ran cross country for 4 years, so 5k's are pretty easy now if you know how to...

Am I right or wrong?

wongchoiyee @wongchoiyee (7413) • Malaysia 3 Mar 12

Yesterday I was driving mom to buy incense, there I parked my car and suddenly a 4-wheel car park in front of me and when he reversed his car he nearly hit me, and I pressed honk. He gets out of his car and said "Did I hit your...

jessmess If the guy made a mistake, then you have every right to point it out. People on the roads don't pay attention to what they are doing, and this is a hazard to others. If someone does this to me, I am going to honk. That way maybe you can jolt them to pay...

Women with their lipstick and makeups??

cyclopz @cyclopz (251) • Sydney, Australia 11 Feb 12

This are for all the women and ladies out there but feedbacks from men are also very welcome. I have observed that most women really like to put on makeups and lipsticks. Is being natrual not enough? Sometimes i appreciate women...

jessmess I personally do not like makeup. I will wear it when I'm going somewhere, but not much at all. It comes off quickly and smears. You constantly have to make sure it is on and it's also extra money that could be used elsewhere.

How can Valentine Day be celebrated in Long Distance Relationship?

Lucas818 @Lucas818 (377) 11 Feb 12

Hi mylotters, The V day is just around the corner; I have this question pop up in my mind: "how can it be celebrated for a couple who having long distance relationship?" Do you think it's kinda sad? What I mean long distance...

jessmess In today's age, technology comes in hand. You can video chat on Valentine's Day. You could send a special letter. I think the letter would mean more because it's hand written and takes more effort. You see their effort with the stroke of the pen. Long distance...

The housework doesn't care who does it, neither do I, so y don't they help?

sharone74 @sharone74 (4837) • United States 11 Feb 12

Men invariably like toleave all the household chores to the wife or girlfriend. Even when you work just as hard as they do and bring home a paycheck, they still assume that you want or need to wash the dishes, and the laundry, and...

jessmess My dad was also like that. So is my boyfriend. If they want the house to stay clean, then they need to put in some effort too. Get a job or something to occupy your time, that way you have an excuse not to do the housework, then let them complain about it...

Have you experienced problems recently with Facebook chat?.

lakerfanster @lakerfanster (2577) 3 Feb 12

I am often on Facebook chat typing away to my friends and it is usually working pretty well but I have been experiencing problems with it recently, not being able to view the chat box or seeing the names of my friends online but...

jessmess It has been doing this to me, also. Try logging out and logging back in. That sometimes fixes the problem. I believe it is due to this new chat format. Sometimes it will show friends on there that are not online. I wish they would return to the old format....

Valentines day more for women?

courtknee525 @courtknee525 (3742) • United States 29 Jan 12

I'm not saying that this is true, but Ive noticed that valentines day seems to focus mainly on the girl in a relationship. The guy buys her gifts and then usually takes her on a date somewhere and treats her really nice. And...

jessmess Just take your girl out and make her feel special. It's just a day to show that person how much they mean to you, so stop hating on the day.

Finished the Hunger Games!

courtknee525 @courtknee525 (3742) • United States 25 Jan 12

The book got so good last night that I ended up staying awake until 1 so I could finish it. I fell in love with this book right from the beginning and these past few days I started reading it a lot. I was kind of disappointed at...

jessmess I have been craving these books, but I don't have the cash to spend on them and they are not in the library! I'm going insane to find them! Haha, I want to read it before I see the movie. Movies always mess up the story in some way or another, so I'd like to...

Star Wars 3D

desertrose16 @desertrose16 (600) • United States 29 Jan 12

I saw a trailer for Star Wars Episode 1 coming on February 10th in 3D. I love Star Wars. All 6 movies. They were re-released with extra footage, the first 3 movies. Now, to make more money, one Star Wars movie will be released...

jessmess I fell in love with the first Star Wars movies. They were original and good humored. The new episodes are too "hollywoodized". The 3-d versions are just going to make it worse. Sorry, but I am going to stick with episodes 4-6 as they are.

The pleasures of reading.

Pose123 @Pose123 (21635) • Canada 29 Jan 12

There are few activities as comforting, relaxing, and healthy as perusing the pages of a good piece of fiction or nonfiction. Curling up with a book and a cup of tea is one of the simplest ways we can remove ourselves from the...

jessmess It's like you read my mind. In my busy life, it is hard to find the free time and read a book that I want to. I have tried to get comfortable and read my textbooks for class, but I get bored and resort to making myself stay awake and picking out a different...

jessmess I like holding the book in my hand and flipping the pages. I might be able to adjust to only reading on the computer, but until we are completely devoid of paper books, I will prefer to read them from books.

Cosmetic Tatoo

ladym33 @ladym33 (10979) • United States 29 Jan 12

I know a couple of ladies who just had eye liner and lip liner permanently tatooed on to their faces, one of them also had eye brows tatooed on. Is this something you would ever consider doing? If you are a man how would you feel...

jessmess I'm sorry, but I do not find that attractive on anyone, man or woman. A little tatoo is one thing, but permanently tatooed makeup? No thank you!
