I am in my first year of college and honestly...I really hate it. My best friend is even down here with me and still...it's not fun. I'm thinking I made a mistake and I should have stayed closer to home and saved money. If I went home (my college is 3 hours away) I could save so much money, get a job, still attend a good 4 year university and I feel like I'd be so much happier. I just don't think I should be paying this much money to be afraid of walking off campus (yeah, crime rate is kind of high, my roommate got mugged) and I don't even have a major. I feel like I'm in over my head and don't get me wrong, I really want to love it here like everyone else. I've heard dorm life isn't for everyone and I hate having drunk girls run down the hall every night. I like to have a good time too, but frat parties aren't my thing. Parties in general aren't either. I am looking into other clubs but I still feel iffy about the city in general. Maybe it's just not the place for me?

I just read an article about the sex on campus of Duk eUniveristy in light of that scandal they had with the lax players and while I knew lots of people on the campus of the school I went to, had a good time, and accomplished some personal and professional goals at my school, being 3 years out of college and single for all that time, I kind of feel......I don't know inadequate?

Im working a job that pays the bills but isn't what I went to college for, and I only been with one person. Meanwhile all they talked about in the article was how superficial and successful people there were.

Ladies, is a guy a failure in life if he wasn't a manwhore in collwege? Let's say I had my moments in that dept. like everyone else, but the fact that I haven't had as many one night stands makes me feel like I missed out?
Is it common to feel this way if you didn't go to a D-1 college?
Did I miss out? In the midst of good times, I've had plenty of drama too there....Is it common to have drama there?

Seems that dress codes are slowly becoming a thing of the past. Good riddance, as far as I'm concerned! I remember pantyhose being a requirment for ladies at my first job. I could never understand how putting your legs in sausage-like casings makes one work better. Where do you stand on the issue?

Are you telling me that as soon as human dies that is it. No more living. Nothing at all. So what we are experience now is because we are alive, and after we die there is nothing else, we won't experience nothing.

Don't you think we are going to be alive again some other way. There has to be some other way. Life just can't just end at death.

Sept. 29 is the first anniversary of the day that a true hero selflessly gave his life to save the lives of his comrades.

Micheal A. Mansoor a member of Navy Seals was awarded the Silver Star in May 2006 when he and another team member pulled a fellow SEAL to safety while bullets ricocheted off the ground in Ramadi, Iraq.

Then on Sept. 29, 2006, Mikey and four of his fellow soldiers were manning a rooftop structure being used as a sniper hideout. Mikey was near the doorway when a grenade thrown by an Iraqi insurgent hit him in the chest and then bounced to the floor without exploding. In a motion as natural as breathing, Mikey jumped on the grenade and shielded his comrades from the blast. ''He never took his eye off the grenade, his only movement was downward toward it,'' said a lieutenant who was injured in the blast. ''He undoubtedly saved mine and the other SEALs' lives and we owe him.'' Mikey gave his life for those around him in an act of unbelievable self sacrifice.

Found a spacious apartment in not the best neighborhood (not that this is a factor...just tossing it in here) Landlord requires 1st month's rent, last months rent, and a security deposit of the same amount. This will be the second place I live in since I moved out of my parents house 4 years ago. Is this legal. Amount totals well over 3k. Your insight is greatly appreciated.

How to Believe in God
Six Easy Steps

1. First, you must want to believe in God.

2. Next, understand that believing in God in the absence of evidence is especially noble.

3. Then, realize that the human ability to believe in God in the absence of evidence might itself constitute evidence for the existence of God.

4. Now consider any need for further evidence (both in yourself and in others) to be a form of temptation, spiritually unhealthy, or a corruption of the intellect.

5. Refer to steps 2-4 as acts of “faith.”

6. Return to 2.
