She just got her GED? Didn't her parents claim she graduated from high school in Texas?

I was the same way in high school and college, and I need my sleep so I never got less than 8 hours. For example, in college I had 4 jobs, worked in a research lab, ran a volunteer program, was the president of 2 clubs, and took a full load every semester.*

Mmm, with those pretty teeth! *fans self*

Wasn't sexy-ass Mekhi Phifer in that?

Same. Our tour guide mentioned that even though the glass is very sturdy, people rarely choose to walk on it.

Yeah, I'm the same height and my current boyfriend is pushing it at 5'11". Now I think 6' or higher is too tall for me!

My BF and I are the same way—a year long distance, nearly a year living in the same city, and now we're at 13ish months living together. We have everything loosely planned out (he's even agreed to my "our marriage year has to be 2014 because it's an even number and I was supposed to be born on the 14th" craziness).…

I agree. Beyonce lacks credibility, which is why people care so much.

I believe that information came from his teammates, some of whom expressed disbelief at how serious his relationship was. I doubt any women will come forward because sex violates NDs code of conduct, and women tend to receive harsher punishments. (Alum here.)

Well employers are supposed to make up the tip shortfall, but it's hard to make that happen. Tips fluctuate from month to month, so I bet employers set the expectation that things will "even out" over the course of the year and fire people who consistently receive low tips, leaving them little recourse to claim the…

When I used to curl my hair, I would start at the scalp and clamp a section of hair with the opening of the iron facing out. Then, holding the iron horizontally, I'd rotate my hand away from my head until all of the hair was wrapped in the iron, hold for three seconds and release. you can pull the iron down gently and…

Disclaimer: My boyfriend and I are great roommates and have never had a space-sharing-related fight, so I don't know if shacked-up bliss is a function of how we live together or our personalities. But, I would suggest figuring out, and then having a conversation about, your deal breakers. Does it bother you to always…

This isn't true everywhere, though. In California, where I live, servers make minimum wage. I still tip as I would otherwise, but I think knowing that several large states pay minimum wage and tips desensitizes people to the "$2.13/hour" statistic.

I'm an ND alum (my best friend used to tutor him), and I don't think he was "in on it" in the sense that he made up LK, but I do think he learned the truth and consciously decided to use his advantage. All of the half-truths now, IMO, are to get around the fact that his sympathetic Heisman story blew up in his face.…

I think the OP (correct me if I'm wrong) wasn't saying people don't use Facebook for others, but that people who complain* aren't aware that they are low on that "others" list. People who are friends with lots of family members probably care more about those people seeing their baby pics than they care about boring…

I'm also a teacher, and I'd add that some students go home and tell their parents a multitude of stories, and the parents get mad without ever asking, "Did you tell your teacher?" A mom got mad at a student "bully" in my class last week, and when we asked her what happened, the bullying was the equivalent of "He…

Right? I'm a teacher, and one of my students did something way worse just last week while at Gym, and we had a reasonable conversation with her and her parents about boundaries, plus recommendation for counseling. This is just beyond the pale.

The Grace series is great. It's about a smart, bookish black girl named Grace. I believe "Amazing Grace" is the first one in the series. Also "Stories Julian Tells" is funny.
