I'm really thankful for my grandma on my mom's side. She raised 9 kids (1 passed away as a child), was a migrant worker, and had a hand in raising all of her grandchildren in some way, even me and I lived 5 hours away. My grandma doesn't question me about when I'm going to get married and have kids 'cause she knows…

Yeah I find cat's personalities to vary a lot more than a dog's, and that's why I prefer dogs than cats in general. I think having a cat made me be open to cats more, but dogs are still more of my kind of pet. I'm considering whether or not to get a cat or a dog when I move for grad school: cat's are more low key and…

I admit I was a Certified Cat Hater for a long time and it all started when I was a kid in my apartment and I thought it was a good idea to pick up the cat that kept roaming around outside and bring it inside (and no one was around to stop me). I held him/her for a while and then it went crazy and scratched the shit…

Just voted. Good luck and thanks for the work you do!

I don't like the idea that if you don't like certain things then you're negative or a "hater". If you know what you like and don't like and you are generally an optimistic/realistic person, then why can't you express the fact that you don't like something? You don't have to walk around not expressing your feelings or…

That sucks since Chobani is the only yogurt I really eat nowadays but really, I don't care much for yogurt. The strawberry and banana Chobani is one of the only yogurt things I can stand.

In response to your other comment, I appreciate that they are offering me some kind of hope but at the same time, after 9 months I'm kinda blah about the whole situation. I have to keep in mind people mean well so I am just over here nodding my head...

Hmm should I do this, or get up off my ass and exercise and eat right? Can I do both? Now if anyone asks, I'll just tell them I didn't have "thin" bacteria. I simply got the "fat" bacteria, so I'm just gonna blame that. ;)

Robin Thicke, I'm sure you are capable of love and that love being reciprocated, but you are still kinda scummy.

"I’ve dated girls like this before, and it always drove me nearly mad. And the funny thing is that one man’s tricky girl doesn’t necessarily make her another man’s. Someone else might date Jessie and not see ANY of this. A tricky girl is situational, and circumstantial. It depends on all parties involved. I’m not…

Cute song but I like "The Way" better from her even though it's played out at this point. This song will probably grow on me though.

So the therapist/school counselor thinks it's a teaching moment? For who? A kid can go home and remind the parent so many times but if the parent doesn't give a shit then the kid is going to starve? I realize he said they wouldn't REALLY allow the child to starve but he sounds really out of touch with reality here.…

I'm sorry for your loss. I have never been much into alcohol and I think one reason that always deters me is that alcoholism runs in my family and I had an uncle that died 7 years ago from something related to him drinking so much. Not to mention it's an expensive habit when you don't have a job.

I'm a weirdo 'cause I hardly ever drink so I figure I won't get breast cancer but I'll probably get heart disease (plus it runs in my family). ;)

Even wine? But I thought drinking wine decreased my risk of heart disease or something. So wine= no heart disease, but I'll probably get breast cancer... Cool.

Half of the dates I went on (and some I had successfully moved on to more dates) were guys I messaged first. I just haven't had any luck and I think it's best for me to try at another time in my life when I'm not in a weird transitioning period. Good to know that some people are getting engaged and married through the…

I gotta look that up it sounds familiar.

I really wished Smash could have been saved but I am not sure what exactly it was that made it so blah.I guess the script was not that great and some of the acting was kinda funky...I still like a lot of the songs and singing though. Except I didn't like a lot of the songs from the other musical they started focusing…

Bad ass Latina of the day <3 R.I.P.

Austin is good for dating if you are a White yuppie or hipster/hippie and that's about it I think. I'm sure if I had been actively seeking White men and I was thin I would be going on dates with a lot of these guys but eh, to be honest I just don't want to fake being attracted to a lot of White guys. I think part of…
