thanx sacrilege but how do you use it? You leave it in and it takes out the oil?

First of all, like many already said I sleep face up even though I end up having a restless night. Also, the first night I coat myself until I look like a clown and eventually it wears off. I put on layers and layers of everything. Also when putting in and taking out contacts, try not to hold open your eye so your mascara, eye liner and eye shadow don’t mess up. When drinking water or eating soup try to keep your lips from getting wet or oily because it will come right off. That’s what I do and anyways, by the third day of yom tov nobody expects you to look too great. For all those who asked about the hair, don’t touch it too much and put in baby powder every night to keep it from getting oily.

cell phones are like most other technological devices-they can be used in a good way or in a bad way. I just had an argument with someone about the internet too. The internet can be horrible and addicting but it can be used by the right people, in the right times. Same with cell phones. Use it at the right times, for the right purposes, and your fine. Why are people saying cell phones are bad when there are HUGE advantages to having a phone with you at all times. No reason to say its bad for the people who use it properly. And for the ones who don’t-learn some self control. Do dieters only keep the amount of food they’re allowed to eat in the house? NO! Same story with cell phones. You can have a cell phone-please use it wisely.

Whoever said that women dress 4 each other is 100% correct! As a by girl all i care about is what other girls and women think. I couldn’t care less what the boys and men think-they probably don’t know whats “in” anyhow. I don’t know-im not in shidduchim but i imagine that its a bit different at that stage and once ur married.

I heard from my rav that on a regular 3 day yom tov its mutar to take a shower if ur uncomfortable but on r”h not because we’re being judged so its not a good idea to look for hetairim.

Kesiva vchasima tova to everyone! Good yom tov!

My tops are Yaakov Shwekey, Baruch Levine, Dovid Gabay and mbc and ybc. There are many other great ones but these are my favorites.

Y.S.G.F.K.-I sure hope you knew that I wasn’t serious about that!

aries2756-I think I still don’t understand you. I asked why we’re blaming the girls and you answered to remind us why we have to cry and fast on tisha b’av. Is that not correct?

I totally don’t get this. Why are we yelling at the girls? They are allowed to live a life! There’s a lot more to protect yourself from on the internet than from simply seeing girls in the street talking. What about all the untznius ladies walking around practically without clothing? That doesn’t give the men a nesayon? Why are we blaming the girls?

Wew! Finally I’m posting again! I really am still active but unfortunately for two painful weeks I didn’t have any internet access:(!

Thanx BP Totty for ur sympathy!:)

I think that firstly, in the times of the holocaust, etc. people instilled in their children the love for torah and yiddishkeit much more than now. Also, then there was no such thing as movies and such outside influences.

Actually my thing said 8 hours before!!

When I was new to cr I told my friend that I finally made my username after being an observer for a while. My friend went on and looked around for a new username and discovered me. Another two people since then have figured me out because of my posts.

no problem-I guess I’m just scared some1 will figure me out.

hie and shteiging-that’s why I don’t share so much info!:)

I’m in h.s. now and when I was in fourth grade a teacher, principal, and another student (along with all the people involved) wronged me terribly and I haven’t forgiven any of them. Every rosh hashana I debate what to do. The student said I did something and the teacher and principal believed them even though it didn’t make an ounce of sense and it was totally not true. My parents had a meeting with the staff and parent of the child before I was allowed back to school and because I was so mad at them I calculated that I lost some school time which totalled to be $22 that the school “owed” me. I think that much I got passed but I’m working on the rest. Poor chinuch disicions can be very devastating. It’s many years and these people aren’t forgiven. I’ve been told to send a letter to the people but I haven’t gathered the courage to do so.

Wolfishmusings-I learned that every middah has to be used to a certain degree besides for anger. Anger should never ever be used.

mosherose-in previous generations they didn’t have all the sophisticated medication that we have now. It’s not a mesorah so why do you take medicine when your sick?

in the catskills but I won’t say which.

who are you to judge if meatballs and spaghetti is a good enough meal for shabbos? If it’s considered a special meal for him then it is! Maybe not in your home but not everyone’s homes are yours!!!

Just as a proof to what sofdavarhakolnishma said that it’s more chamur once someone’s married-hilchos yichud is d’oraisa for married and d’rabanan for unmarried.

I think the waiters sometimes work harder than the counselors and it’s very important to tip them. They’re the ones who get up early to set the table for breakfast and stay late after supper to clean up. Not only that but during the meal every five minutes they’re getting up to serve you. In the camp that I go to counselors are practically expected to laze around in bed all day.
