brigette1 It's amazing how far people will go to make a quick buck. You could probably Google the top 5 unhealthiest foods, but no, they want you to buy a book on it. Ridiculous.

I found this report quite shocking. What does this say about our society? Where your entire future is dependent on where you live and how much money your family has. Do these children not deserve the same quality of education as...

brigette1 I completely agree with you. It is ridiculous that she would even have to lie for her kids to get the education they deserve.

brigette1 Wow, 9 months seems so long from now! I can't even imagine what he'll be like when he's that age. I can't sleep during the day either really, which is what makes it really hard. I've read a lot but he's still not old enough to put him on a sleep schedule. Soon...

brigette1 Your positive words are just what I needed! Thank you so much:). I read a lot during my pregnancy about nursing, development, etc. I also pretty much lived in a bubble while I was pregnant-avoiding everything they say you should. I guess that's why it's...

brigette1 Sorry it's taken me so long to respond, duty calls! Anyway, the thing is, he'll fall asleep or pull away (both apply to nursing and bottle feeding), so I burp him and put him down to sleep. But he's screaming 5 minutes later! I try to offer him more before I...

Especially when you are very far from each other. Life is cruel sometimes, when you love someone but you need to go overseas for studies or work for how many years, long distance relationship should be considered at this time. but...

brigette1 I used to think love was all you needed to keep a relationship going. I was wrong. It takes work- a lot of it. Both people need to put in equal work, or it won't last. I personally don't believe long distance relationships can EVER work, based on my own...

The other night I was literally kept awake by the thought that what I was taught in science class about black and white was wrong. First let me explain what I mean... They taught us that a hypothesis needs to be proven over...

brigette1 First I'd like to say thank you for this post. I remember being taught these things, but as you said, I never gave it a second thought. It isn't until now, years down the road, that I'm questioning it because of your post. I just had my first baby and I'm...

I'm thinking of coloring my hair. I have dark brown hair and I'd love burgundy highlights. Except, from what I've heard they don't last too long. And I would do it at home, but they don't have the color I would like....

brigette1 I looove burgundy hair. I've dyed my hair pretty much every shade of dark red/burgundy. I've had it professionally done, but it can be expensive, and it doesn't last long. I have dark brown hair as well. In order to dye any or all of your hair burgundy you...

Do you have anyone you hate? If you do, have you ever said the words "I HATE YOU" to somebody in their face? Did it feel relieving or will you just feel guilty? How did it feel if you have, and if you haven't why haven't you?

brigette1 I know what you mean. I thought once we exchanged "I hate you"s that would be the closure I didn't know I needed. However, since he just wouldn't go away after that, it, rather HE, was like a festering sore. From a psychological (that's my major) point of...

brigette1 Yes, I have said "I Hate You" to someone's face-a couple actually. It's not something I'm proud of. Only once did I actuallly mean it. It's awful to admit, but it felt good. It was something I had been harboring for a long time. It was like a weight had been...

As you know, dressing is a need. Everyone of us have to wear clothes on to seem some like normal. But, what do you wear? I mean, we all have influences on what we wear. There are some people that wears according to the music they...

brigette1 I used to be a burlesque entertainer so my style is infulenced by the 1940s and 1950s pin up girls. I just had my baby, so it's just sweatpants and tshirts for now, but I'm looking forward to glamming it up again soon. I love pencil skirts and satin blouses....

I don't approach the subject of suicide lightly as my brother tried to take his own life some years ago. Fortunately, he was unsuccessful but I am acutely aware that some people succeed and I am trying to be as sensitive as I can...

brigette1 My best friend's father committed suicide when we were 11. He showed no signs of it in the weeks preceeding it. He shot himself in the head in the living room while his family slept. I think his doing it at home, while everyone was there, shows that he wasn't...
