Yeah, I bet his friends feel terrible. I don't see how they could let their friend drink that much! I read this story in a paper and it said his parents had to fly and claim their sons body and all this stuff.. how sad for them. They had no clue he was drinking this much and they asked students from his high school what type of person he was and they all said he was really focus on his school work and was in the band. I guess people can really change in college.

I'm taking an education class and the book said our students perform the lowest in math and science in the world and I think have the most teenage births.



Edit:
Well maybe not the world since there are a lot of 3rd world countries, but like compared to other top countries :)

I have two friends that came back from Iraq and want to reenlist so I'm assuming for them they didn't think it was that bad and give them an anxiety disorder. I wonder why it affects certain people and not others..?

Here are some reasons for it..


1. Depression


2. Anemia


3. Rheumatoid Arthritis


4. Diabetes


5. Thyroid Disease


If you are having a sleeping problem I would go to your doctor and get it checked out. Don't just rely on sleeping pills and avoid maybe a serious problem. I think the reason why I don't sleep is because of stress and depression.

to lorein's post..yeah I could see why the producer would be mad because their goal is for the audience to feel like they were in that time period. I'm not sure though that if smoking is taken away they can't feel the same way.

• Don't forget the past; utilize it. Acknowledge that you will move beyond any painful experiences and focus on future relationship success.
   It's very common to overly romanticize the good parts of a relationship, convincing yourself that maybe the bad parts weren't so bad after all, maybe you could live with them. Or that maybe if your ex could know just how you feel, s/he wouldn't want to break up after all. Don't play this game with yourself. Accept the situation and move on. 
    Even if you and your ex have decided to stay friends, take a complete break from each other immediately after the breakup. That means no seeing each other, no phone calls, no e-mails, no Instant Messaging, and most importantly, no sex - not necessarily as a permanent measure (except where sex is concerned), but until you feel that you can converse with him/her like a normal person, without an ulterior motive (and yes, wanting to get back together counts as an ulterior motive).


This part really speaks to me..Very good advice. Thanks I needed to hear (well read) that!!

In the state of California they are issuing ID cards to legal marijuana users. 70% of counties are using these and it will help identify who can use it and who shouldn't be arrested for having it. Do other states issue these as well?
