In an era that tells us to keep rushing – from the time we are children – to reach the next milestone of life, it’s hard to keep our priorities straight. Mix in an overload of media, internet, competition, and pop culture, and it becomes almost impossible to hear yourself think. In order to properly prioritize your life, you need to take a step back and reassess where you are investing your time and energy. Alongside this, in my opinion, it becomes quite beneficial (necessary, in fact) to keep yourself accountable for every single decision you make. It doesn’t matter how... 

In in era that is over-saturated with media and communication, some may wonder if pursuing penpals is even worth the time anymore. Heck, with Facebook and satellite television around to provide us with on-demand entertainment, it hardly sounds so intriguing anymore to exchange conversation with a stranger from a far-away place. Or does it? Now more than ever, many people of all ages are turning back the clock on technology and looking for more down-to-earth methods of interaction. While it’s hardly possible to avoid the Internet these days between all the online banking, emailing, and what... 

ABC’s “Cougar Town” is a new show starring Courtney Cox, who plays a recently divorced woman who re-enters the dating scene that’s filled with younger men. The show takes place near Sarasota, Fla., and the title sequence opens with a sign that reads “Welcome to Cougar Town,” referring to a place where attractive, single older women date younger men. While the name of this television town is completely fictional, there are real towns where cougars live. In case you were wondering, here is a list of the top five cougar towns in the United States. 1. Austin, Texas About Austin: As a college... 

If only network TV would lead with this news: according to a University of Minnesota study, “hooking up” — casual sex with more than one partner — is NOT in itself damaging to one’s psychological health. Just like the “free love” generation before us, millennials figured this out long before the men in white coats arrived. For some, hooking up is a way to explore their sexuality without a relationship commitment. For others it’s a form of dating — a good relationship requires a good sexual relationship, so why not cut to the chase? But —... 

I am positive everyone of us have received that look from the opposite sex, or on the contrary, been looked right over. The tough part is to decide whether they are just playing hard-to-get, or if they just aren’t interested in you. The first thing you should make sure is that you actually like the person, not just really want to be pleasured to the full extent of your fantasy with them. If they don’t laugh and your poor attempts at jokes, it is most likely a waste of jokes that could go a lot further with someone else. Possibly even landing you in the sack with a person who’s... 

The majority of people in the world are arguably “nice”… but do they have what it takes to be a good friend? 1. Humility - Perhaps the most important thing to look for in a friend is their ability to say “I’m sorry” when they have wronged you. No friendship can survive over time without apologies when someone has been hurt. Without humility, relationships quickly turn into a pile of bitterness and competition. Along with apologies, it’s also important that your friend is willing to forgive you. 2. Generosity - Even the most humble of friends will start... 

1. Tattoos – No, there are no exceptions. Tattoos are one of those things that look hot on a small minority of drop-dead gorgeous movie stars like Angelina Jolie, but in real life, less than 1% of women can actually pull it off in any form. (Variations include girls that have watched way too many Evanescence music videos, girls that had an ex-boyfriend die in a surfing accident and have branded his name onto their wrist, hipster bitches, white trash skanks, wannabe porn stars, etc.) 2. Daddy Issues - This rears its head in all sorts of ways, so proceed with caution. Unfortunately, this is... 

So, I was thinking today… Why do people even bother with one word Txts. They are a waste of time for both parties…. Why would anyone send a one word txt and not bother carrying on the conversation? Is the beginning of a new type of communication? One where everyone can answer with telecommunication. No, I think the true answer lies with the people sending those horrible txts. I believe they want the responding party to ask a more provocative question/statement to catch them off guard and spice up there typical day, or they want you to leave them alone. But, ff they take the time to... 

Let’s face it: Valentine’s Day was designed for women. Since most guys could care less about mushy cards, candles, chocolates and flowers, women need to think a little differently when romancing their men. This Valentine’s Day, keep a few candles burning for yourself if you’d like, but if you really want him to feel the love and know that you appreciate him, here are some ways to turn your home into a guy-friendly romantic escape. Have a clean apartment and get a baby sitter While most guys could care less about candles and soft music, they do appreciate a clean house.  Pick up your things... 

For most of us, going away to college is probably the first time we are leaving home for an extended period of time. And this means saying goodbye, albeit temporarily, to places and people who formed an important part of our lives. Sometimes this involves breaking away from a high school sweetheart, a move that is synonymous with tears and promises to stay in touch and visit often no matter what. While we’ve heard it being said that absence makes the heart grow fonder, there’s also the fact that for some of us, when it’s out of sight, it’s out of mind. So if you’re going away to college... 

Textual Intercourse, a new book by Beob I’m certainly not one of these people who pushes their chest out and proudly says, “Oh I can’t be arsed with texting, if I’ve got something to say then I’ll just ring ‘em!”, as if they should receive some sort of medal for being so utterly, uncreative.  These people (usually men) have seriously missed the point if they think the only thing the text message is to be used for, is practical purposes.  These very people could really benefit from discovering the joys of putting thumb to keypad and getting those pent up feelings out in the open... 

Have you ever wondered how much of the things your man says are the real truth? It’s interesting that a lot of times, to keep a relationship working, men often feel that the best thing to do is lie. Strangely, women often know that what their man is telling them is a pure lie and yet they still prefer to hear it. So why do men lie? What are the reasons they feel the need to lie to their partners? 1. To make their woman happy. Let’s take an example. The majority of women are not happy with their bodies. What is a man suppose to answer when asked “how do I look?” We all know...
