Your Husband, Wife, Significant other or your Children

meandmy3 @meandmy3 (2227) • United States 10 May 09

Which comes first in your life. I know this is a touchy topic and many may not agree with me on this but I think that your spouse should come first by placing your spouse first you are in fact doing you are ensuring your childrens...

jewl1126 Kudos to you! I, too, believe that the spouse should be number one on the priority list of the choices given. If you don't have a strong relationship with your spouse, what do your children have to look up to or feel secure in? Unfortunately, it seems life...

"veggie" or murderer?

megumiart @megumiart (3771) • United States 8 May 09

If you were a vampire, would you be "vegeterian" like the Cullens, or would you drink human blood? I think I'd go for humans, but not in a reckless way. I'd keep track of news and crimes and hunt for bad, menace-to-society...

jewl1126 "Vegetarian" for me. Probably for the same reason as the Cullens. It would be the least monstrous choice. Of course, as others have brought up, if I were in a situation with a criminal involved, the criminal will have to be taken down.

shayde12 @shayde12 (21) • Fiji 10 May 09

jewl1126 I think the casting for the Twilight crew is absolutely right on target. I can't imagine seeing any of the sequels with other actors/actresses playing the original parts. The new cast members for the Volturi coven are pretty interesting, although I am...

Who's story is your favorite?

megumiart @megumiart (3771) • United States 8 May 09

Through out the series, there are a couple telling of how some characters got to be who they are. For example Rosalie and Jasper telling Bella their human lives in Eclipse, and the Quileute's legends, and Carlisle's past inthe...

jewl1126 Wow, hard to pick a favorite, but let's try. All of their personal stories are so interesting, and it adds a nice flavor to the story to know the circumstances that brought them into the vampire life. I think I would have to agree with you on the Rosalie...

How do you spend your SUNDAY(s)?

laydee @laydee (12798) • Philippines 10 May 09

I mean, I think most of us work on Mondays, so Sunday being the last day of the weekend break, what do you usually do with it? Do you often go out with family/friends? Or would you rather stay home? My family and I usually...

jewl1126 I was a power seller for a couple of months, but just didn't have the time to keep it up. I guess the best answer I can give you is to keep listing items that are on the hot selling list on ebay, if possible. Timing seems to be the key to selling successfully...

Would you put your parents in the nursing home or would you tend them at home?

laydee @laydee (12798) • Philippines 10 May 09

Which would you do when the time comes? Similarly, if your time comes where would you rather be? At a nursing home or at your son/daughter's home? Personally, I'd rather my parents be at my home. I would hire a nurse for them...

jewl1126 In an ideal world, keeping my parents at home would be easy. However, their medical conditions call for 24/7 care that I and my siblings cannot offer. We all have to have jobs to keep our own immediate families taken care of and aren't qualified to help them...

jewl1126 I think it depends on the man. If he is more concerned with the way he looks to others, then he would probably go for the beautiful woman. But, if you have a man who is sincerely looking for a soulmate, then character would win him over most definitely. As you...

Greenhill @Greenhill (178) • United States 9 May 09

Do you own a particular movie that you still enjoy watching over and over again?

jewl1126 @jewl1126 (102) • United States 7 May 09

Right now, with my daughters, it is Twilight. But, my personal favorite to watch over and over again is The Notebook and Second Hand Lions...two totally different movies, but still great watches nonetheless.
