cheesytola Thanks for your response. I was very very spoilt and lucky because my parents paid for my surgery, otherwise I would never have been able to afford it. I had the lasek which is slightly cheaper but takes a little longer to recover from. Hang in there and I...

I've seen some really great, some average and some downright strange usernames so far on myLot, and I'm dying to know the stories behind your choice. For me, I found "Malyck" when i was trying to find a suitable name on the net...

cheesytola Mine is a nickname I acquired at work about 8 years ago. I always used to have cheese sandwiches every day for dinner, so people started calling me "Cheesy" then somehow it was lengthened to "Cheesytola". I cant seem to shake it off now and you can find me...

I am really picky when it comes to naming my kitties. I don't like people names, nor do I go for names like blacky, snowball, fluffy... etc. I admit, I have settled for a name I wasn't happy with due to lack of creativity, but I...

My daughter just bought a HP lap top for school, and she said that her batery lasts only about 2 hours. I was surprised. I thought that it should lasts at least half a day or so. Then I talk to other people, and they said the same...

cheesytola Yes about two hours is normal for a laptop battery as I have discovered in the last few days. I went wireless about six months ago, but usually end up sat at the table next to the hub with the power plugged in. This week I haven't been able to do that as we...

For me it was a personal choice I made at the tender age of 15 and just never changed my mind about it- even now at 32. When I was a teen most of my teen friends were either pregnant or had a child or two already- so going to...

cheesytola I am 39 now and I fully respect your decision not to have kids. Bear in mind you are not too old to change your mind, but I always used to see people with kids. A night out is a military operation, finding babysitters etc. I am far too selfish and I admit it...

cheesytola The new single is awesome and the video is great as well. I have a major crush on Dave Grohl so I may be biased but I love the music as well. Looking forward to the new album guys.

cheesytola Mike Reid was a true star and a born entertainer. I was so sad to hear about his death. Eastenders was great when he was in it "You Pilchard" and the best Eastenders ever was when he turned up on Pat's doorstep wearing nothing but a bow tie. He will be sadly...

cheesytola Ah yes Gary's so sweet, she would eat him up for breakfast and spit him out ha ha! I don't think Dawn is the one for Gary she needs someone who is going to tell her what to do and be masterful with her Gary's too nice to do that. Gary should try his luck...

I LUV U2. They're wicked. What do u think is their best ever song. I luv 'Elevation'. Plz replyy coz my total earnings is at $0.00 at the moment and i only made an account about an hour ago.

cheesytola U2's best song for me is "One". I love it because its so raw and beautiful and yet simple. Bono's voice is just starting to mature properly and sounds perfect. I also like "Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own" because it's partly about Bono's dad and...

I don't miss at all, Tim's piano do all the work and it's fantastic. Richard is one hell of a drummer as well, and well, I guess I don't need to say about Tom's voice!

cheesytola No need for guitars when you have talent like they have. They make the pianos/synths sound like whatever they want, and Tom's voice just adds to the greatness. I went to see them earlier this year in Sheffield, UK and they were awesome. I liked their music...

cheesytola Those people who shunned you are not fit to call themselves friends or family. You chose your husband because you love him - what color his skin is has no bearing whatsoever on this. Your REAL friends and family will see how happy you are and be glad for you,...
