cubbiefan28 I like to keep my books on a bookshelf that my Mom built for me. My dream is to havea home with a room that I could convert into a library. I love re-reading books so having a place to put my books is always helpful.

Do you have a journal?

med889 @med889 (5940) 30 Apr 09

Do you got a journal in which you write your whole day stuffs in it? I used to have one when I was in college but now I got so many friends and many activities that I don't feel the need to keep one. Do you still write in your...

cubbiefan28 I kept a journal during middle school. I wrote in it EVERY day. The mundane details of my life...who I hung out with, what I did that day, what subjects I liked and disliked. It is so much fun to go back and read the entries. They make me laugh and make me...

Do you know or love or care for someone with Alzheimer's?

debrakcarey @debrakcarey (19887) • United States 29 Jun 09

I have spent the last twenty years working in nursing homes. I've helped friends and family take care of loved ones with Alzheimer's at home. I've read the 36 Hour Day, a book dedicated to the caregivers of those with this type of...

have you ever cut class before?

orevro @orevro (715) • Philippines 27 Jun 09

I once did it when i was in high school. i tried it but i can't say that it's cutting classes since i asked permission for my dad to skip the class and he said yes since it's for a project due that week..

cubbiefan28 I don't cut class. At my high school there are very strict rules about cutting classes. I would end up being at school all day Saturday if I cut class!

What's your car's scent?

incredibleDNA @incredibleDNA (1742) • Philippines 30 Jun 09

I don't like my car to be scented with car perfumes. Rather, I use my cologne or perfume inside the car as it really smells hot! How about you myLotter, what's your car scent?

cubbiefan28 I recently spilled a bottle of Windex in my car so it smells a bit like musty Windex at the moment. I am a runner so the smelly running shoes sometimes stink up my car, too! Febreeze is ALWAYS in my car :)

Purses

cubbiefan28 @cubbiefan28 (36) • United States 30 Jun 09

Name one thing in your purse that you think no one else carries with them. Something unique, odd, different, funny, weird. Anything! For me it would have to be an emergency first aid kit. I love to be prepared! haha

cubbiefan28 I love the "always be prepared" attitude. It's small things like sewing kits and first aid kits that can really come in handy!

Writing papers

LeavaoDe @LeavaoDe (349) • United States 29 Jun 09

cubbiefan28 I don't really enjoy writing about myself. While it can be easier because it is (obviously :)) familiar, it can be challenging because you don't want to sound conceited, dishonest, etc. I definitely prefer research papers.

Does anyone like stories with unhappy endings? And if so, why?

andy77e @andy77e (5156) • United States 30 Jun 09

I happen to enjoy a good story. Always have. Something with neat plot line. But I have to admit, I'm a sucker for a happy ending. I want the bad guy to get mashed, the hardworking guy to open his business or get the promotion, the...

cubbiefan28 I actually like books and movies that don't always have a happy ending. I want something that is real. Something that would actually happen. Something with substance. Don't get me wrong, I'm a sucker for a good love story or a happily ever after story. But I...

cubbiefan28 I like to read in a comfortable chair at my house but it is often tempting to fall asleep when I'm at home! I typically go to the local library or Barnes and Noble to read. If it is a nice day I'll head over to a park to read. I can read basically anywhere....

Rereading books

LeavaoDe @LeavaoDe (349) • United States 29 Jun 09

Have you read "The Time Traveler's Wife"?

baddying @baddying (88) • China 1 Aug 08

Has anyone read this novel? What do you think about the novel? Is it good? I have read about thirty pages of it and start to feel boring, though its structure as well as the story is unique. How do you feel about it?

cubbiefan28 I loved "The Time Traveler's Wife". It is one of my favorite books. With all of the typical romantic books out there, this one definitely caught my attention because of the unique take on love. I can't wait to see the movie.

watching tv before going to bed

mkrishna22 @mkrishna22 (465) • India 30 Jun 09

television is another thing which has invaded our lives. it has become a habit to watch tv just before going to bed. even though you know that it is of not much use, it has become inevitable.

cubbiefan28 I prefer reading before I go to bed. I am bombarded by TVs, computers, cell phones, and other electronic devices all day so I enjoy "going back to the basics" and reading a good book.
