blinky- i tried to sniff out as many of you as I could while I was there….didn’t get very far!
November 8, 2010 8:24 pm at 8:24 pm in reply to: Should There Be An Indication For Gender Under Peoples Names? #711992cokeMemberblinky- thanks for sticking up for me! For all you know, WIY, a guy asked me something and I turned red because I was so embarrassed that a guy spoke to me….LOL
November 8, 2010 7:33 pm at 7:33 pm in reply to: Should There Be An Indication For Gender Under Peoples Names? #711991cokeMemberWIY- I DO NOT talk to boys ever ever ever….I happened to have been at a “concert” for some special children yesterday where Avraham Fried came and sang for them and I was there along with a bunch of “chassidishe” guys who also came to sing and dance (and just hang out). Just asking if you are one of those guys….or anyone else that is here was at that party….
November 8, 2010 5:59 pm at 5:59 pm in reply to: Should There Be An Indication For Gender Under Peoples Names? #711986cokeMemberWIY- do you live in BP? I was in BP yesterday and I met a bunch of guys and all I kept thinking that I have no doubt that one of them was a poster here who I “spoke” to a million times but would never know about! One guy even said to me that I look so familiar and I was thinking “maybe you know me from the coffee room but otherwise I never saw you in my life!”
November 5, 2010 4:36 pm at 4:36 pm in reply to: Shidduchim, What do boys look for in a girl? #712711cokeMemberWIY- thanks for the encouragement! As far as looks go, I am definitely not ugly but I am not one of those girls who a guy would pass and say wow she is stunning! But who cares I just need my husband to think I am pretty and yes with the right makeup I do manage to look “good” every time I leave my house….
As far as money is concerned, I am not from a wealthy family but my parents are planning on supporting and they are able to baruch hashem!
As far as being chilled, I do try my best and I succeed many times but not to the extent that I consider myself a chilled person. If you would know how many times I held my tongue and don’t say things to my siblings because I know that my kids and husband don’t want someone to always tell them to pick up the toys, go daven shachris, clean up his bed….etc.
cokeMemberDon’t parents want their daughters to save some of their money that they are making when they are single for when they get married? Especially if the guy is learning….
November 5, 2010 2:24 pm at 2:24 pm in reply to: Shidduchim, What do boys look for in a girl? #712703cokeMemberIt sounds like if a girl does not have an easy-going and chilled personality, she is doomed and no one is going to want to marry her. If that is the case, I feel very bad for myself! I am not the very chilled type….it does not come naturally to me and although it is something that I work very hard on I have not completely changed as that is nearly impossible.
Also, in regard to the discussion about Yichus- I think we see the exact opposite from the Avos. Although they did marry the children on ovdai avodah zora, Yitzchok was careful when sending Eliezer to find a wife that she NOT be from the “low” end of society and she should be from any nation except Cenani….(I have no idea how to spell this….sorry)
So please explain what you mean when you say that guys out there only want chilled girls. If I work on my middos and try my best to be easy going does that mean it’s still not enough? And no I am not pretty or rich so for sure no one is going to want me????
cokeMemberI guess no one would know who I am because I do not live in BP or work in an office there or anything else….Oh well! I am gonna be there on Sun so maybe if i spot BPT or Sac or blinky I will finally be able to be part of “the in crowd”….
cokeMemberhashemsprincess and I are very good friends and she spotted me in one second! after my first post she called me up to double check that i am “coke”….. BPT- where are you taking BP Mommy and the kids this week?
cokeMemberi do not get texts on my cell so if you sent me something then you are just going to have to call me if you think you know who i am! but i highly doubt you know me!
cokeMemberso right-do i know who you are? do you know me? that would be cute:)
cokeMemberI highly doubt anyone can figure me out- except for one friend who called me after my first post and figured out who I was. I would tell you who she is but have to ask her first. Then you guys can tell me if we are similar and fit into the same category! I highly doubt anyone else knows who I am (i have some friends who know my usename but they never go online so they wouldn’t know!)
cokeMemberthere is an amazing book out there on emunah and bitachon called “the garden of emunah” by rabbi arush. try it- it changed the way i thought about everything in life.
cokeMemberWhat changed from when you were in high school until now?
cokeMemberwhich “guy” asked a question? more like girl……please don’t confuse that again
cokeMemberSac- I always thought that I was the only one like that! Thanks for making me feel normal again!
November 2, 2010 6:21 pm at 6:21 pm in reply to: Molesters: Why Do Some In Our Community Cover For Them? #711796cokeMemberaries- i am not from New York and have not heard about that story….but it sounds really scary! what happened?
cokeMemberwhat is it about? what type of person is he- meaning am i going to be hearing from a MO rabbi or a chassidishe rebbe type?
cokeMemberBPT- you mean you have big boys? i thought you had younger children…..
cokeMemberAnyone out there every heard of it? guess not….
cokeMemberwhere do you live? camp? school? etc….
cokeMemberyes- i do believe that i know or at least heard of most girls my age.
cokeMemberblinky- are you hiding something? what is that “uh oh’ all about? that i know most girls my age?
cokeMemberyou are both right! LOL Blinky- are you part of that age bracket? then i for sure know you because i know most girls my age
cokeMemberBPT- you should try Monsey- we have pretty good food here too!
cokeMemberBPT- I thought BP Mommy was busy with her own website somewhere else….. Imamother or something like that.
cokeMemberjust curious what age bracket you think I belong to? about?
November 1, 2010 2:58 pm at 2:58 pm in reply to: NY-LA via Coach Bus, only one seat left on each #785717cokeMemberBPT- you are very original that you even thought of this one! I like this idea but not the same-gender part of it! I want to be on the bus with you and and doc…. I think that one will have a combination of the best food and the most entertainment. Keep me posted about when we are leaving. I just need a few days notice so I can let my boss know!
cokeMemberThank you everyone for your advice and encouragement. By today I am feeling fine and hope fully things will stay this way until next month:) I was told that I can take fish oil by a health food store guy but I am a little scared to try it- it makes me nauseous just to think about it! I think I’m going to try it next time.
Sac- i am not sure how you would know how old I am.
cokeMembersof- DEPENDS WHAT YOU ARE TAKING IT FOR! TRUST ME YOU CAN’T TAKE PEPTO BISMOL FOR THIS!
cokeMemberSac- no it’s a cake. It is not frozen. I call it fluff bars…..
cokeMembernow I really have to meet you! You are for sure one of my friends….where are you from?
cokeMemberyes- i have a recipe for a heaven cake that has a chocolate cake on the bottom and then a thin layer of marshmallow fluff and then a heaven chocolate rice krispies crunch- tastes like cliks.
cokeMemberSac- I know tell me about it! LOL I think we are more similar than I would have ever guessed. Let’s see what BPT has to say- do we fall into the same category?
October 29, 2010 4:25 pm at 4:25 pm in reply to: NY-LA via Coach Bus, only one seat left on each #785700cokeMemberBPT- put me on any bus that you wish, but count me in! I would chose the bus that you and Dr. Pepper are on!
cokeMemberSac- been there done that! there is nothing to do besides get marrie and have kids!
cokeMemberSacrilege- WOW! You are the first person who is target and on the ball here! LOL Yes I know they have that, but nothing works and they just make me more nauseuous. For now I think that Advil is the best on the market. Trust me, I tried everything including the real perscription stuff but nothing works for everything- either it works for stomach cramps or for nausea or for other issues! 🙂 thanks
cokeMemberI think if you knew what she did for me you would realize how this is just a tiny way to show her that I care about her and want to be nice! She is one of those extra-special friends.
cokeMemberNo! she is a regular normal girl who comes from a very normal and regular home but her mother works full time and does not get a chance to make potato kugel. Last night when I made mine I thought that it would mean a lot to her to taste the real thing-not the fake stuff from a take-out! How can you compare? So yes I made her the kugel but she didn’t want to eat it because she can’t eat so many carbs or her mother will start telling her she is getting fat. I will get the recipe and give it to you some other time.
cokeMemberThank you everyone. It is starting to kick in, but no I have no headache just stomach cramps and nauseous! I think that you are not supposed to drink caffeine when you are taking advil because it usually just makes things worse for me. I also found that if I took the advil with food it worked better than without. It was worth to wait a little longer and take with food than to just take it quickly when i woke up.
cokeMemberanyone alive out there? I am in agony and took 3 advil…..can i take more?
cokeMemberhashemsprincess- cute that you ask! I just made potato kugel for a friend of mine. This would be really funny if I know who you are and if I am related to BPT too as suggested earlier.
cokeMemberSqueak- go right ahead…..I am waiting and this is the perfect place to start- after all it is just General Shmooze!
cokeMemberBPT- I can not believe you that you are not Chassidish at all. I am sure that even if I never saw you, I have seen a million of the same type. I still believe that you are heimish…..or have that stuff in your blood. If not, then your friends are probably close to that…..Do you wear a shtreimel on shab? That is a good way to start figuring this out.
cokeMemberWIY- I think he is! I am actually positive that he is! I think if I met him I would know it’s him in a second.
cokeMemberShimmel- what makes you say that? I have no way of knowing until he sums me up, if he can even figure me out!
cokeMemberleave it to BPT to know that stuff!
cokeMemberWhy would you want to hear the way I “break down” myself and my friends?
cokeMemberi plead the fifth!
cokeMemberI like the fact that no one knows who I am (except that BPT can more or less figure out who I am and which category I fit into). It’s also something to do when your boss walks out! LOL
