sourgrapes77 @sourgrapes77 (95) • Philippines 19 Feb 07

I'm thinking about being single about the rest of my life. And i want to ask if being single is ok? I know we have friends and stuffs that would make us busy and occupied. But what's in it for us, singles, at the end of the day...

house or condo: which do you prefer to settle?

pink_passion @pink_passion (279) • Philippines 24 Jan 07

i'd rather settle in a house coz you really feel that it's yours. you don't to share parking spaces, stairs or elevators. during calaminities you can easily run out of the house without bumping in to your neighbors in the condo.

meeshee1 I think it's a matter of taste. Condos have LOTS less maintenance, and no yardwork. Plus you know your neighbors' homes will alwyas look nice since everything has to look uniform. I do agree that condos can be too close for comfort. I think I'm going to buy...

Should we stay or should we go?

writerightmom @writerightmom (148) • United States 27 Jan 07

My husband and I have been going nuts for the past 5 or so months. We bought our first home in March of '05 and ever since we moved in, it's been one nightmare after the other. First, the plumbing overflowed during the first three...

meeshee1 I am so sorry this is happening to you. I really hope things work out. sometimes a short sale with the bank is easier than dealing with foreclosure. In the meantime you guys can always rent in the other state or live in a hotel until you find something else,...

Did you go to a mortage company? An construction/lender company?

OnfireforJesus @OnfireforJesus (500) • United States 12 Jan 07

So where do you start? How do you know who to turn to? What to ask? What are the best interest rates? If you can help by answering some of these questions, it would be greatly appreciated!

meeshee1 The first thing you should always do is pull your FICO scores. That's number one. You should always know your score before talking to a lender so you have more negotiating power and you know where you stand. Be ready to have paperwork there like you W2s, tax...

meeshee1 Yep! I would definitely buy a house, then fill it with all nice furniture and decorate it MY way! Then I'd give my parents some money, and then I would go on a nice vacation. I'd put the rest in a high yield savings account and let it accumulate interest.. :)

cats are so nice and friendly

smuggeridge @smuggeridge (2148) 16 Jan 07

Children of Men, 1984, V For Vendetta?

gimpmedia @gimpmedia (23) • United States 16 Jan 07

Interesting seeing images in each film that mirror main points of liberal outrage in America. Children of Men was emotionally jarring in a completely necessary way. I recommend it to EVERYONE and think viewers from both sides...

meeshee1 Exactly. It was definitely emotional, definitely a ride, and it went by fast. It felt like 5 minutes to me, because it sucked me into the story so fast. Clive Owen should win an award for his role in this film. It was filmed beautifully with an intelligent...

avantpopartist @avantpopartist (13) • United States 30 Dec 06

Well, with 2006 coming to a close, I would like to review the year in movies. Thanks to the activities of the Bush administration, 2005's trend of politically minded fare continued into this year. 2006 saw the release of not one,...

ER doctors who are downright rude

slanderson52 @slanderson52 (542) • United States 10 Jan 07

I live in a small town with only 1 hospital. Several weeks ago I took my sister-in-law, who was in a manic episode, to the hospital because she would not go with anyone else. She was seeing a doctor but had not yet been told she...

Has anyone tried any Paid Survey Sites?

mskim2u2004 @mskim2u2004 (355) • United States 7 Jan 07

I've tried about two paid survey sites. They were no good. Most that say you get paid to complete surveys only offer you opportunities to win prizes. I want to make money! Has anyone tried a Paid Survey Site that really pays...

meeshee1 I do surveys online here and there. Theyre good for helping give you a little bit of extra spending money, but I wouldn't bank on them to make a living. Just be sure the ones you do join are legitimate so you are not giving of your time for nothing.
