So, all the respondents were girls who visited Discovery Girls magazine website? Not exactly representative. I remember that when I was younger, I would go on magazine websites more when I was unhappy and wanted advice, be it on boys, friends, or looking cooler. (By the way, I *loved* DG when I was little.) So, it…

Making one place safer often helps to make the other, surrounding areas safer. Tulane students have the most control over the area where they live. They want their school to use it's *private force* to make the Tulane campus *and surrounding area* safer for both students and residents. Yes, there are starving…

I remember reading one study on placebo effects, I think it was part of a Slate/Washington Post long article about placebo. It basically found that people who were given placebo acupuncture (needles placed in different locations than the "medicinal" ones) actually reported more and longer lasting health benefits than…

Did you not wear ballroom shoes for dance? Mine are about two inches, I think. No higher than that.

You're not alone. However, do I get to use the excuse of going to a super rural college and being cut off from civilization?

Aaand I'm in this club too. Sigh.

Ooh, I want to see these terrible graphics! Where are they?

I don't know. I think a shared language, shared culture (not necessarily the same, but at least enough to understand one another), and shared values would be important for finding a soul mate. That narrows down the pool considerably. Plus, maybe being drawn to the same cities, same spots to hang around, etc. would…

Look, I'm not at all torn up about this. I think Paterno was a shitty person. That doesn't change the fact that his *family* is feeling real pain right now. It doesn't seem right to make fun of their prayers and their pain.

Yes, Paterno did a shitty thing, and I don't like him at all. Still, making fun of his family's prayers at his deathbed? Not a very sensitive thing to say.

So, I very recently realized that when people talk about hipsters in Williamsburg, they're *not* talking about Historical Williamsburg. They're talking about a place in New York. Goodbye, fun images of hipsters hanging out with historical reenactment people..

That is so so so amazing! You give me hope for my dreams :). Congratulations!

Maybe? Winter break was fantastic and wonderful, and made me want to be with him forever. But, I don't know if I can do long distance like this. Not being able to see each other makes me feel so disconnected. But the thought of never being with him again makes me miserable.

Wait. I just see some pretty fruit. Maybe dyed grapefruit? What is racist about this?

The Amityville Horror. The more recent one. Ohmygoodness, I could not stop screaming during that movie. Could not sleep the rest of the night. Or, really, the rest of the week. I was nine maybe? Terrifying experience.

So, I've realized I'm rethinking my long distance relationship. We've been together for 10 months, and long distance since we both started college this year.

I've never used DevaCurl, so I can't help you on that, but can you try mixing your two shampoos together? I've done that before with dandruff shampoo+look nice shampoo, and it worked well.

I'm no expert by any means, but muscle building should help! Muscle burns calories faster than fat, so a muscular person at the same weight as a not-muscular person would be able to eat more/lose more weight by eating the same amount. Remember, though, that muscle weighs more than fat. You may even start to put on a…
