School uniforms?

scarywhitegirl @scarywhitegirl (2766) • United States 9 Jul 07

When you went to school, were you required to wear a uniform, or could you wear what you wanted? Do you think that the trend towards schools requiring uniforms for their students is a good thing or a bad thing? I'm...

LCecelia When I lived in Jamaica like you I too attended a Catholic school and we were required to wear uniforms. And as far as I can remember, it went all the up to high school. Back then our uniforms were custom made as we didn't have mass production and as each...

LCecelia I've had auctions where I didn't specify local pick up but got inauiries from buyers who wanted to know if they could pick up. I was always agreeable, however I made the pick up location away from my home. Understandably a love seat is a very large item to...

Can Online Friends be real Friends?

34momma @34momma (13882) • United States 14 Mar 08

I was on Yuwie a while ago sending a comment to someone. My crazy co-work is at my desk and he asked me this question: Is that your online friend or a real life friend? So that got me to thinking, can people you meet online be...

LCecelia I agree, online friends CAN be like "flesh" friends, you know like "God with skin on?" I think especially if you find someone who has common interests and you both take the time to cultivate the friendship by sharing more personal things. Intimacy doesn't just...

Advertisement in Mylot?

Andy Liu Zn @andyliuzn (1029) • Guangzhou, China 24 Feb 08

Do we earn money by clicking the advertisement in mylot? If so, how much we could earn by each click? If not, do you still click it? And what do you think the advertisements are for? Will you help mylot to clike the...

LCecelia I think indirectly we do earn from Mylot's advertising revenue. If you think about it, the advertisers pay Mylot a fee to "rent" their space and Mylot in turn uses part of those fees to pay us for contributing on the site. As far as the advertisers, they are...

LCecelia I'm tired of those too, especially the ones that say that if you love Jesus forward it on if not delete it. I ignore those now because Jesus knows who loves Him and who doesn't. I think your sister-in-law may send them on not necessarily that she believes...

Sergeantrom @sergeantrom (5721) • United States 22 Mar 08

LCecelia Religion/Church is NOT about money. It's about GOD. The type of religion/Church one chooses is/should be based on God...where you think that God wants you to worship, not about the size of your bank account. Most times one goes to a Church because...

How do you deal with telemarketers?

BlueStarMom1 @BlueStarMom1 (931) • United States 24 Oct 07

One of my biggest pet peeves is telemarketers. They drive me nuts when they call while I am busy or they interrupt my dinner. I especially hate it when they call on Sunday mornings. I used to just hang up. But then I decided to...

Is there a nice way to tell them to turn it down

HomeFlower @HomeFlower (987) • Canada 24 Oct 07

Our neighbors like to play their music loud. It doesn't bother me most of the time but they do this daily and sometimes the base gets on my nerves. We've been neighbors for almost 3 years and this just started this summer with...

LCecelia Well that has happened and I've asked them nicely to turn it down, especially the timee I was not feeling very well. Another time I was living somewhere else and I wasn't friendly with them so I just called the police.

LCecelia I'm not a biological parent but I "played" one for a while. Long story. :-) The main thing here is consistency. Set up rules and consequences and follow through with them! With that said, I don't know what your situation is but I believe that you would...

Are you affected by increased fuel costs?

soulsister_16 @soulsister_16 (738) • Switzerland 2 Oct 07

LCecelia I would say a definite "Yes!" I don't drive as much and I combine trips. If I only drive to and from work and do my errands in between the two destinations a tank of gas lasts me 2 weeks. However if I make a trip to visit my brothers, just one trip will...

LCecelia I was born in Jamaica. I moved to the States in 1974. I agree with you, mostly the bad things have been reported about Jamaica. I agree with you too about the people. I still have distant relatives living there. My last trip back home though was in 1992...

Do you think it is appropriate to have a mid-night snack??

braveheart07 @braveheart07 (2601) • Philippines 29 Sep 07

LCecelia I agree, it is not good to eat in the middle of the night especially if it is a large meal and she goes right back to sleep. When I was younger I heard it told that it was not good to eat and then lie down. You should sit up at least 30 minutes after...
