Clearing Doubts On Apartment Living
A reader asked me if I know of any resource site that could give him the low down on moving to an apartment and how to make a smooth transition from living in a house to living in an apartment. I think I know what he means when he said that he is rather afraid of the surprises that will be in store when he makes the change.
While some people may not think that it is such a big deal moving to an apartment, I can tell you that it is not easy. For one, you will have only so much space and people who are already used to living in a house will notice the lack of space.
This reader also said he has no idea what to do with his pet dog so I think he needs to do as much research as possible to make sure that he is able to cope with a new home in an apartment.
I told him about ApartmentGuide.com which I believe is able to answer all the questions he has about moving to and living in an apartment and clear whatever doubts he may have.
The Department of Education Stafford Loan
The other day, I had the opportunity to chat with my friend regarding student loans. You see, he has been complaining that he is bogged down by such loans and that repayment is taking a toll on his financial health.
As for me, my only point of discontentment comes from the fact that I wished knew about college loans earlier so that I don’t have to drop out from college.
I checked out the department of education Stafford loan just now and compare to the loans that my friends took out that come with a high interest rate, Stafford college loan is a government guaranteed student loan that has very low interest rates.
I bet many people do not know that there are two types of Stafford college loans. One is subsidized and the other is unsubsidized. Subsidized in this context means that the government pays interest on the loan until the borrower graduates from college and then he takes over the repayment. On the other hand, unsubsidized loan means that one has to start paying the interest on the loan as soon as the loan is approved.
In any case, I believe it is of utmost important to make sure one compares all the different student loans first.
Solution To Drug & Alcohol Addiction
I have a few friends who are heavy drinkers. While I think that they definitely have an addiction problem to alcohol and should enroll into a alcohol rehab program, they do not admit it. I think they are living in denial and should get a counseling to determine if they require professional help in kicking the habit.
Now, these friends are different from a distant relative of mine. This uncle readily admitted that he is an alcoholic. He was proactive in getting help and joined a detoxification program to be free from the disease of addiction and to reclaim his life.
After seeing what a difference the correct rehabilitation program could do to an individual, I believe that every person who is suffering from an addiction should be helped to see that he DOES have a problem but luckily, the solution is just right in front of their eyes.
I came across the website of The Watershed and the place looks like somewhere worth going for rehabilitation. Although the grounds of The Watershed look luxurious, I have been told that the programs are priced competitively because they believe in helping addicts. Not only does The Watershed offer a solution, they offer it at a very affordable price too. I believe more people should be made aware of the services of The Watershed so that more drug and alcohol abusers will benefit from their programs.
Taylor Swift Country Star Extraordinaire
Just now as I was surfing Idol Me, I saw a link out to Taylor Swift. Hmm I have never heard of him/her but luckily there’s her biography that I could read. Well, it is no wonder that I have never heard of her before. She is a country singer! And I am a rock lover. My sister lives in Tennessee so I am going to ask her if she has seen Taylor Swift perform yet.
Reading the biography of Taylor Swift, I am surprised that she is only sixteen years old and already has two hit singles. I am so very impressed that she has held her own in singing contests and performing in public places at a young age. When I compare myself with her, I think that when I was her age, I was still hiding behind my father’s legs! I am still shy now and will never have the guts to sing in a public place. I can’t even sing in private to save my life!
According to her biography, her debut album was released in 2006 which means she was only fifteen at that time. Have I already mentioned that I am thoroughly impressed by her?
I am all the more blown away watching the music video of Taylor Swift’s Teardrops on my Guitar. What can I say, she is so talented!! I am her new fan! I will be checking out Taylor swift mp3 and music videos on the internet right after this. I am sure there will be tons of good stuff, if only I have known to look for them earlier!
I am not sure though, if her record is even in Malaysia yet or maybe I would have to order it through the record store or purchase it online. It is going to be more expensive but I am sure her music is worth every penny!
Catering To Aging Eyes
A couple of my readers asked me why do I spend so much time on the internet and yet do not make good use of my time. They feel that I am being unproductive and wasting time surfing the internet, chatting and blogging. Well, what can I say?
They told me that since I spend so much time on the internet, I could at least make use of it trading online, on one of the auction marketplaces. Well, that idea did not come up to me at all until now.
With that idea in mind, I surfed around the internet looking for a good product tat I am comfortable with and am sure that they are in demand. I saw a company selling Wholesale Reading Glasses and I think it is a good source for me to start my little venture.
With so many people living longer thanks to better quality of life, Wholesale Readers are what I feel I should get to cater to this group of people with aging eyes.
I think I need to do further research on this before committing money on my project!
Goji For Good Health
I received an email from my sister that she has not been well recently. Well, being all alone in USA is not easy. I have however, heard of many health benefits of the Goji Berries and wondered if she has tried them before. A few of my friends have been drinking Goji Juice daily and they tell me that they feel so energetic and I think it is because of the high levels of antioxidants in the berries. I believe Gogi berries have the highest level of antioxidants compared to other fruits.
Also, I have read up on Goji berries in various articles. According tor research, people who eat Goji berries or drink its juice daily live longer in general and rarely suffer from common modern life ailments like high blood pressure and diabetes and even prevent serious illnesses like heart diseases and cancer.
Since Goji berry is this good, I would rather add it to my diet than suffer from all sorts of sickness later down the road in life. My friends have told me that the juice is sweet and very tasty to drink. I think I will get some for myself as well and convince my sister that the Goji is always better than taking medicine!
