Do you prefer reading the book or watching the movie?

romartinez03 @romartinez03 (94) • Philippines 12 Jul 10

I just thought of this discussion because of the blockbuster movie Twilight Saga. Before it became a blockbuster movie, it was a best seller novel book by Stephanie Meyer. Same goes with the Harry Potter Series. I am not into...

txddawn39 I choose books every time! I prefer my imagination coloring the story instead of someone in Hollywood. I've noticed that reading is becoming a thing of the past, something that isn't very popular after the Generation X group (my generation). It's a shame...

txddawn39 Happiness, or lack of it, is not caused or affected by how much or what you have. Wealthy people are just as unhappy (as a group) as poor people. They commit suicide just as regularly. This proves that happiness can't be bought or owned. I met a man I...

txddawn39 Try to spend the last moments with my son or best friends. Make things right between me & God. Since I couldn't do anything about it, I would just sit back and enjoy the ride! I live 90 miles from the coast, so maybe I'd fix me a pitcher of drinks (suicide...

txddawn39 Like everyone else, I have certain things that scare the crap out of me. If any of it is in a movie, I can't watch it without nightmares no matter what time of the day I watch it. Any movie/show with torture causes flasbacks for me, so I avoid them. Zombie...

txddawn39 I stay away from little bottles of water, purchasing them when I have no other choice. I recycle by filling my own bottles with water. There is a place around the corner which sells it for 15 cents a gallon. About 3 times a year, I throw out those bottles and...

txddawn39 I live in a US town on the border of Mexico, and I only drink the tap water on an emergency basis. As far as water quality is concerned, I might as well be living in Mexico. I use it for dishwashing, bathing, & cleaning, but NEVER drinking. When I brush my...

txddawn39 I say I love you to my family and friends every day. As I end a phone call or text message, I always say, "Love you!" My grandmother (who recently passed) started all of us in the family on this habit. Now, I'm grateful because those words were the last I said...

txddawn39 As a counselor, I can tell you that she will probably be devastated for a time. While I can't give you any professional advice, I agree with some here that it is actually better that he is showing his true colors now, instead of waiting until the wedding, the...

txddawn39 I don't have any idea how to fix a computer. I'm lucky that my son is computer savvy and getting a degree in computer science in Dec. If I had an unremoveable virus, he would find me another computer. This just recently happened by the way.

txddawn39 This is true not only of sugary sodas but diet sodas as well. the phosphate in the carbonated water leaches calcium from your bones. I probably won't give them up completely, but I am trying to cut down. They also can cause regular abdominal bloating, as is...

txddawn39 Yes, there are many movies I have watched so many times I can't even say how often I've watched them. Movies that have personal meaning for me are to be collected and savored regularly. My top 5: Equilibrium, The Fifth Element, Houseguest, Little Nicky, Tales...

Do you look your age?

bluemoonpavilion @bluemoonpavilion (4658) • Singapore 7 Jul 10

txddawn39 I look at least 15 years younger than I am. Family heredity - glowing skin & fewer wrinkles - is a huge part of that. My mother & grandmother look 20 years younger as well. Starting at puberty (age 11), I looked very mature for my age and could pass for 18 by...
