I don't like this nickname.

I simply don't.

RE: Love Songs

RE: What is your favorite type of music?

Hmmmm....

This is also a difficult question...

Dance?

RE: What is your least favorite type of music?

It's hard to vote... I don't really dislike any type of music...

RE: Say Anything

Maybe you should and then I'll tell you the scary story about my friend's parents (including hairy legs)...

Exercising / Workout

Thanks all!

My toe still hurts, so I have an excuse not to start practicing , but this thread will be my reminder to begin once I fully recover!

RE: One Word Only

Idea

RE: Say Anything

Old things are used, overused, misused and abused , but new things are so far away in time...

What to do in the meantime?

Exercising / Workout

I like train rides, too. It's nice to sit in the train and just watch nature passing by...

Language and Personality

Now I understand the reason behind your success with women. It's Vlach magic.

RE: Everybody discriminates.......

I have a friend who got married right after we finished high school and has two grow-up daughters. A couple of years ago (we were around 40) we talked on the phone, she complained about this and that and then told me: "After all, we lived our life. It's all over for us. Now our children should live."

I didn't know what to say...

Exercising / Workout

I bet it was a nice journey.

I would use railcars, too.

Language and Personality

I also perceive myself a little differently depending on the language I use.

Of course, we don't change our personality, but maybe different languages emphasize different parts of our personality.

I don't like myself when I use English.

Exercising / Workout

This looks sooooooooooo hard!

Exercising / Workout

Mercedes takes exercising very seriously - I would only be an annoying distraction!

Exercising / Workout

It's not that I have some special pain, it's more that I'm all stiff and inflexible and feel like I'm 90 years old.

Yoga is great, but one needs discipline and motivation and I lack that when exercising is concerned.

I found some Bollywood dancing exercises (2-3 minutes each) on Youtube. They look a lot like dancing, so I might try some when my toe recovers (it's still blue, not so swollen any more, though).

RE: Current Thoughts (Cont)~~

What about Miwagi? I haven't seen him for a while...

Exercising / Workout

2intrigued and MsContessa, thanks.

I think I will start with longer walks and some short dancing videos I found on Youtube (2-3minutes each). I hope I will be able to maintain self-discipline and motivation. Knowing myself, it will be hard.

Language and Personality

This is a thread for all of us who speak at least one foreign language.

Do you have a feeling that your personality or - at least - the way you express your personality - changes depending on the language you speak?

I noticed that I'm much more direct and straightforward when talking/writing in English than in my mother tongue. I write on this forum and another one in my native language and I can see the difference in the way I express my thoughts and the way I write. I'm much less direct and much "softer" when writing in my own language. Then, when I talk/write in Japanese, I become even less direct and even more gentle.

It's not only about the style - it's as if the differences of those languages (and the culture they come from) make me feel and behave a little differently.

Does this make sense to anyone?

Did anyone else notice this?

Exercising / Workout

I'm not sure if there's a class in my town...

I did it and - only spent time chatting in the gym instead of exercising. Actually, I enjoyed chatting with people in the gym much more than exercising and there was always some lazy woman like me, so... wasted money! I even went for a run with a friend and we would run for 100-200m, then walk for 500m and - went for a coffee.

People who really want and like to exercise don't take me seriously and don't want my company for exercising and those who are like me are useless.

I first have to discipline myself somehow. It's interesting that I can discipline myself when many things are concerned, apart from exercising. I don't know why I dislike it so much.

RE: Current Thoughts (Cont)~~

I thought that it might remove him from forums, but he would probably post both here and there.

RE: Current Thoughts (Cont)~~

Maybe someone should tell him about the blogs.

His posts are more appropriate for blogs than threads...

Exercising / Workout

That's what many people say. The most important thing is to make it a habit.

I don't know why I dislike exercising so much. I think I'd rather do anything else. Whenever I make a plan to start exercising, everything else (including cleaning) starts to look appealing.

I like dancing and always enjoyed it. When I was younger and went out in the evening much more - I could dance all night long. I thought Zumba could be fun, but it wasn't.

I'll have to search for something else...

Thanks for your reply, all.

Limun included.

RE: Current Thoughts (Cont)~~

Can you change a thread name?


At least I always put a profile photo on my new nickname and everyone knows it's me!

RE: Current Thoughts (Cont)~~

I noticed it, too. If Harbal finally got banned - that means that he achieved his goal on the forums and can move to other battlefields.


That's true. I really cannot understand them.
