I have tried trimming the ends of my hair cause I couldn't stand the split ends. I was successful cause it turned out good and I trimmed it evenly. Later today I need to do some trimming again. I just really don't want to go to...

BraveNewDawn The only hair I can manage to trim myself is my ear hair using a pair of tweezers! I get my girlfriend to cut my hair now since I cannot afford to get it cut as I cannot see the back of my head easily. I notice there is a single handheld hair trimmer...

BraveNewDawn Instead of a shower, wash in the sink/bowl with a flannel. A dual flush toilet system where you can flush less if you just pee saves a bit, otherwise a cup and a sink work well too :-) (But do remember the waste pipes will tend to get clogged over time with...

BraveNewDawn I also do not leave the tap running. I worked out that my girlfriend uses 3 times the water I do just because she leaves taps running when I do not! Having once lived in a caravan, where it was a long walk to pick up a barrel of water, you soon learn to...

My mom and dad met when they were in college. It was the late 70's. Mom was a poor lass from the barrios and dad was a spoiled rich brat from the city. Classic story in the sense that most romantic movies almost always have a poor...

BraveNewDawn As my mum has remarried several times, I've got several stories to tell: One was a friend of someone her father worked with. Another she met at a railway station after her car broke down and he came to her rescue. And the last she met in a shop.

BraveNewDawn I find asking in online forums works really well, as you can get a great wealth of advice and experience, and if anyone says anything really wrong, everyone else jumps out of the woodwork to correct them! Live online chat is about my favourite, as you can...

When I was younger I didn't mind filling in application forms or submitting my CV because there wasn't loads of information to go on them. Now, if I leave something out, employers think I've been unemployed longer than I actually...

BraveNewDawn I notice in the UK that they often request a library related qualification to be employed in them nowdays.

BraveNewDawn I cannot wait to be self-employed again, it seems nowdays the only way to get yourself an income! So far though, all my business plans are at such an early phase, that none of them are bringing in any money. I think in the UK we could really do with the...

BraveNewDawn I reckon me telling the truth about myself probably hasn't helped me get a job, as often it seems employers want so much from a candiate, that unless you are like superman with a thousand years experience in everything, you are just not suitable. Having...

I don't understand why it seems almost all the elders can wake up so early. Such as they will wake up at about 3 or 4 am naturally. But they tend to go to sleep earlier at night, such as around 9 pm. I think it is not necessary to...

BraveNewDawn It wouldn't surprise me if it is because they spent so many years getting up early for work, that they just automatically get up at that time even if they do not need to. I find that is happening to me, even though my last 9 to 5 job was 6 years ago, I...
