Granted I am only a student but I made a similar move by quitting my internship and an Office Space like software company and finding a part time job and doing freelance work on the side. I couldn't be happier.

So, it would be better to play a sport of some sort on the weekend? Like some soccer or roller hockey? I am not a huge fan of running.

What I would really like to find is some pick up soccer or roller hockey on the weekends then. I really don't particularly feel like I need to run and I would rather play a sport to condition. I did a lot of 5x5 stuff back in high school w

Couldn't agree more with this. I have been having tremendous results from doing the Bill Star 5x5 program (bench, squat, dead lift, incline, barbell rows) in a shot amount of time. I would like to incorporate some cardio into to this for h

I play a lot of golf. It is a really good break for me because it just feels really old school. I don't even bring my cell phone and it is technology free.

I go to a Big 10 school and I can honestly say that I need to spend less than 10 hours a week outside of regular class to make 3.0 or better. Maybe I am just a fast learner and granted my major is Information Sciences and Technology (I sho

This is correct. It would definitely take years. Think about that there is only one hole in this well. It is much smaller than wells in places like Texas and Middle East which are drilled via many holes for a few years.

I don't think Americans really need to do anything personally. I think the primary issue is the lack of public transportation here in America. We need leadership on this from the top so that we can catch up to the rest of the world. You

That was/is the hardest part of quitting smoking (I still smoke very rarely) for me. I just really enjoy stepping outside for a smoke be it from work or at a crowded party. Its just something I like to do I just wish I could find somethin

I completely agree as a bimodal sleeper myself. If I sleep over 7 hours in one session I feel terrible, much worse even than if I would have only gotten 5 hours of sleep that night. I usually sleep 5 hours a night and take 2 and half hour

Agreed. I am so tired of this notion that software (and other things too) need to be free and supported by ads. What the hell is wrong with with just paying for something so that you don't have to get bombarded by psychological warfare de

I have it from a pretty quality source, i.e. my girl friends father who is high up in a rival oil company that none of the things they are doing right now have any real shot at working. They are just stall tactics until they get relief well
