beamsey @beamsey (425) • Philippines 13 May 09

What do you guys think of Jodi Picoult's books? I have read quite a few of her books and I found them captivating. It was hard for me to put her books down. Please share your thoughts. :)

socitycourty The genre is called domestic fiction. I think her books are great. I just finished her new one, "Handle with Care". I think she's a really good writer who gets to your heart!

socitycourty Are they fixed? If not they should be. Otherwise you will end up with kittens that are hard to find homes for. Sometimes it could just be play fighting though. Mine do this and sometimes even growl and hiss, and then later on they're cuddling together.

If you live for a thousand years....

asherem2 @asherem2 (257) • Thailand 13 May 09

Since the ancient times, people had always been seeking the so-called, "Elixir of Life," or the "Fountain of Youth." The reason behind is that; they would like to stay young and arrest ageing. Even now, lots of ads and forum...

socitycourty I would not like to live for a thousand years. Definitely not. You see too many bad things in a short life, why make it longer? People die so that there is room for new people being born. The earth is already overpopulated anyway. Just my .02

Is There A God

kuttamack @kuttamack (6) • United States 12 May 09

socitycourty I personally don't believe that there is a "God". There is too much unexplained evil and pain to be attributed to free will. This is all blamed on "Satan." It is said that Satan is a coping mechanism for monotheists. I believe this is true.

socitycourty My all time favorite book is The Stand by Stephen King. I've read every single book by him and I think they're all great. But that's the one I would read over and over. I also like to read Jodi Picoult, she's pretty popular right now.

Are you FOND of CRAMMING?

tracydee @tracydee (172) • Philippines 12 May 09

As a student, yes I am fond of cramming in my projects and exams. I just can't help it because it seems that my mind works better whenever I am under pressure. But then, educators discourage this kind of habit. I've been trying to...

socitycourty I would spend the day with my cats and bird, and my whole family. I would eat everything I liked and watch all the movies I love. Then I would say goodnight to each and every person and tell them that I loved them. And of course tell my husband too.

socitycourty It truly is a vicious circle. I have a dental phobia and I think my parents did too, because they hardly ever took us. My dad now goes regularly but my mom won't. I am always in a panic attack when I even get a cleaning.
