I love the looks I get from people when I tell them I didn't have a T.V. in my room at college all last year. I've gotten more work done, and could actually hear myself think. It was fabulous. I know the girls I'll be sharing an apartment with next year will want one in the living room, but I...

I absolutely love rum, but it seems like the only well known cocktails are tropical drinks, and when I'm in a bar, bamboo umbrellas seem a little inappropriate...:rolleyes: Can someone tell me some well known rum cocktails that I could order without feeling silly?

I think I'm going to try the cider while I'm there. Thanks everyone!

Thanks everyone! I think I figured out a way to narrow things down a little. This whole thing started because my friend is taking me to this pub in July and I want to order the right thing. Look at this list and tell me which you think would be the best choice for me...

I'm glad I found this thread because I was just about to start one just like it. I really honestly can't stand beer, but I think it's because I've only had the cheap stuff at other people's houses. I'm going out to a pub in a few weeks and all I want is a beer that doesn't taste like feet. haha...

Two of my favorite movies off all time are consistently questioned with a response of "Huh?": "The Purple Rose of Cairo" and "American Graffiti" Two very different movies, but each unique and adorable in their own way.

I have very fair skin as well, and I have trouble finding powder that isn't too powdery. I used to use the Sephora brand powder, but it got to be too expensive. My mom introduced my to L'Oreal True Match powder and I love it. I use "Porcelain" (W1), but you could also try "Classic Ivory" (N2)...

That picture is a little outdated. My hair is halfway down my back now. I've only tried curling it once at this length, and it worked well with a curling iron, but unfortunately, I got caught in a pop up thunderstorm and that was then end of that hairdo! :( I'm thinking of cutting it, but I...

Thanks James! How did you know I was a rum kinda girl? haha Sounds fantastic!

Sewing Machines Well, you ladies have inspired me to start making my own dresses. Thank you!! You all have made such beautiful pieces! What kind of sewing machines do you use? I need to know what to ask for for Christmas!

When I saw this, I almost had an accident! haha

Well, if I'm ever in Southern California, I'll check it out! :)

What most men don't understand is that women would rather see them in a well-tailored suit instead of their birthday suit! ;)

I watched "It Happened One Night" on TCM a few nights ago. I had always heard about it but I had never seen it before. It was fantastic! I expected it to be cute, but I was surprised at the number of times I laughed out loud. Gable and Colbert are magnificent together. I can definitely see what...
