Between sad and happy

gengeni @gengeni (3308) • Indonesia 19 Feb 11

Why when we are angry, depressed, and sad, could be so many words, curses, which smoothly out of our mouths? But when we're happy, no words we can express.

jessmartian interesting question... that i don't really have an answer for. just more proof! I know when I am angry and depressed I can write much more (and better) poetry than when I'm happy. I guess we want to sit back and enjoy the happy moments and not waste the...

What's the best part of being a student?

adnileb @adnileb (5287) • Philippines 19 Feb 11

Being a student has lots of adventure. From cramming for quizzes, "cheating" during exams, cutting classes, friends night out, group discussions/projects and a lot more. My best part? It's when I get my monthly allowance....

jessmartian The best part for me is probably the independence. Though that's partially the worst part also. I can do what I want, when I want to do it. And all the while I'm learning to manage my time, money, and relationships. There really aren't any solid commitments...

jessmartian I don't really know. Once we have something I guess it's just in our nature to continue to want things. I mean, we get bored with what we have, and working towards new things gives us things to work towards and look forward to. So, I guess in a way it's just...

Spinach

jahernandezrivas @jahernandezrivas (11288) • United States 5 Feb 11

I did buy some cans of Spinach on my shopping trip when the cans were on sell, they were included, so I figured I have not had Spinach in over 3 years and it is a change from, corn, peas, green beans, and other veggies, so I...

jessmartian I think they pretty much answered your question about the vitamins, but yeah, spinach is definitely one of the healthiest vegetables. That pretty much goes for any brightly colored vegetable, especially if they're fresh, though. Sure, canned ones still have...

Can you be best friend with the opposite gender?

biby89 @biby89 (215) • Serbia And Montenegro 4 Feb 11

I must say I personally don't have best friend that is a male, so that could mean that I don't believe you can have it. True friendship. What do you guys think? And do you have that kinda friend? How to make that kind of...

jessmartian Yeah, of course it's possible. It's just rare. When you're such good friends with someone of the opposite sx, there's going to be some kind of sxual tension, typically, but not always. I've even heard that you should end up marrying your best friend... I don't...

Does your mood affect they way you reply to discussions on mylot?

SunnyBuddy @SunnyBuddy (443) • India 4 Feb 11

Our mood affects the way we speak to others. We speak differently in different moods... We might speak softly and politely when we are in a good mood and in a harsh and strong manner when we are tired or irritated by...

jessmartian Yeah, I guess it does. If I'm in a lazy mood I typically won't respond to things unless they're specific questions. If it's something that I know I'd have to type a lot to, then I don't really want to respond. I've noticed when I'm in a good mood with nothing...

liquorice @liquorice (3887) 31 Jan 11

Fantasy Series

creolemoe @creolemoe (68) • United States 27 Jan 11

I just finished the Ender's Game series and I really loved it. I would highly recommend it! Anyway, I'm looking for a new series to start, so I'd love to hear about some other people's favorites and opinions!

jessmartian I've read the Odd series by Dean Kootz, that's pretty good. It's four books, beginning with Odd Thomas. It's about a guy who can see dead people, but it gets so much more complicated than that. He basically uses his gift/curse to solve crimes, or rather, to...

jessmartian I love chrome. It's by far my favorite out of every browser I've tried. Highly recommend it! There are a few things that it doesn't work for (mostly things like Blackboard or school-related external windows) but for the most part it works. I have it set so it...

Dying instantly or prolonged death..

sammy14 @sammy14 (834) • Philippines 3 Feb 11

jessmartian I don't really know. I mean, we can't really say what we'd prefer because we have nothing to compare it to. None of us have died before. I've had dreams about death, actually, and myself dying... and when I think about it, I kind of hope there's a painless...

Who here thinks Meditation brings out your pure, positive, and peaceful self?

meditated1 @meditated1 (238) • United States 31 Jan 11

I really love to find a meditative state in anything I do. When you can just breathe slowly and release your external thoughts so as to allow for your true inner voice to direct yourself to your true pure and positive inner being....

jessmartian Yes! I just wish I meditated more often. I know that it can clear your mind and help you think and be, and just be so healthy for you... but it's like exercise. Just one of those things you keep putting off- but when you start it and make a habit out of it, it...

Ditching the Recipe Cards

cbchops @cbchops (61) • United States 31 Jan 11

In the last few weeks I've been "experimenting" in the kitchen. Honestly, I've surprised myself. I've challenged myself to ditch the recipe cards for at least one meal a week. For this meal I just "wing it." I check out the food...

jessmartian I've been a fan of cooking since I can remember. I used to follow recipes (not very strictly) but typically when I'm cooking I do it because I get an idea of ingredients to use. I'm constantly "winging it" in the kitchen, trying new things, seeing what...

jessmartian Vitacost.com is a great place to buy vitamins, and practically ANY health or beauty product. They sell tons of natural, and even organic products, and their prices are AMAZING. When I say amazing, I mean it. Like, an average of about 75% off what you'd...

Why should we be shunned if we love someone who does not love us?

dayangsumbi2010 @dayangsumbi2010 (1724) • Indonesia 30 Jan 11

Having people close to us know if we love him and he does not love us, we must be shunned. Why? And we love him, not hate.

jessmartian I have trouble defining it as love if he doesn't feel the same way towards you. So in that respect everyone else "shunning" you may be due to the fact that they see that you are gIving more to the relationship and that is unfair to you. They just want the best...

Was it ever love if it didn't last?

jessmartian @jessmartian (111) • United States 24 Jan 11

I've battled with this question for a while and have my own thoughts on it... but what about yours? Do you think it's possible to HAVE loved someone, but don't now? Or was it ever really "true" love, if it isn't forever? Can...

jessmartian Yeah those questions make sense. I think love is really about strength and the different types of it there can be.

jessmartian Living on the east coast, I find they usually add it up over night and I'll make anywhere from a couple cents to almost 20 cents a day depending on how much I post. And I really don't have to post that much to make a decent amount of money. You have to get to...

Should parents continue to finance their children after the children are 18?

jessmartian As an 18 year old, I need the financial aid of my mother. I would prefer it if it were different, though. I would be totally comfortable with having a job where I made my own money, through college, and took out all the loans in my name. However, the FAFSA...
