Who's addicted to ebay?

natromana @natromana (44) • Malta 3 Feb 09

I am definetly addicted. You can find practically anything you need. And the fact that you can take a chance and bid is great for people (like me) who don't have alot of extra money to spend. What do you think?

ebay

lacroix707 Im totally addicted. Its where I pretty much get every photography supply (and more) that I need. Plus, nothing beats the prices. Seriously. I also like the thrill of bidding. :-)

lacroix707 I donate them. I never ask for anything in exchange, I mean, that's not the point of giving. I do give clothes to my cousins but I rarely do since they can afford new stuff anyway. The needy deserve and need it more than my cousins do. :-)

What are your most comfortable pairs of shoes?

frogfrizz @frogfrizz (2) • Philippines 7 Jul 09

I'm not the fancy-shoe type of gal; I just love my running shoes for just about anything because they're just so damned comfortable! Mine are a pair of 2-year old Adidas running shoes that have taken me from the one end of my city...

lacroix707 I love my flat oxfords because they are incredibly comfy and are slightly more unique than your typical ballet flats. I also have a pair of oxfords which I adore as they're so well cushioned. However, nothing beats the comfort that my trusty chucks provide. I...

lacroix707 I have, actually. I even found a few dresses that my grandmum used to wear when she was younger. I love the nostalgia in vintage clothing. In fact, the majority of my clothes are vintage. I just love vintage shopping. :-)

Beauty is Ageless

jsitko @jsitko (1169) • United States 24 Jul 09

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Is this just a saying to make us feel better? What is beauty to you? Do you feel that you will be less beautiful when you get older? I do not think that people lose their beauty. Just...

lacroix707 I believe that beauty does lie in the eye of the beholder. I mean, we all have different ideas of what is beautiful and as such the standard varies for every person. As for beauty comes from within, I believe in it too. Most people that I find beautiful may...

lacroix707 I do write short stories. Longer ones are a bit of a problem for me. I get lost in thought. You're right, if you have one too many ideas, it'd be hard to focus on one and write about it. But it never hurt anyone to try, right? :-)

gracepets @gracepets (79) • Philippines 24 Jul 09

lacroix707 I lost my grandfather a few years ago and I guess that's got to be one of the most heart breaking losses I ever had. There were regrets, of course. But you know, the pain goes away sooner than you think. You'll always have their memory to keep you company and...

Foreign Films

timelord50 @timelord50 (170) • United States 23 Jul 09

I have watched many foreign language films and find most easy to understand and follow. Recently a friend was talking about films that are dubbed in different languages and how different it makes the film appear. Translations tend...

lacroix707 I like French films but they would've to be subbed in English. There are slight differences when it comes to translation but not so much that it alters your whole perception of the film. Well, that is, unless the translation is really really bad. :-)

How do you cope with addiction?

laydee @laydee (12798) • Philippines 23 Jul 09

lacroix707 I try to stay away far from it as possible. I mean, it would be hard since you're addicted but the more you do it then the easier it would become. Maybe find a different and more productive hobby for yourself? ;-)

lacroix707 I usually download albums to sample them. However, I always buy hard copies because I like collecting stuff. Especially if its an artist I really like and they're releasing stuff on vinyl, I'll definitely pick one up. :-)

lacroix707 I only demand the same amount of respect as I give them. You should let your friends know how you feel. The thing is, if you keep quiet and not say anything at all then they might think that you're fine with it and they'll just go on doing it. :-)
