Pride and Prejudice - Jane Austen I'm trying to incorporate some more classics into my reading list!

Not as much as I'd like to! During the week, I mainly read while I'm commuting, and sometimes a bit before bed. I'd say an hour total, if I'm lucky.

It depends what I'm reading, but lately I'm all about the e-reader. I spend a lot of time on the subway, and it's just easier to carry my kobo. However, I agree that some types of books (reference books, cook books) aren't really meant for e-format. I still love "real" books, but for...

Right now, I'm really loving Murdoch Mysteries. It's a detective show set in the 1890's in Toronto.

I've stopped caring so much about what others think of me, and I can truly be myself. I know myself a lot better, and have learned from past experiences. Also, I'm stronger in my faith, and not so worried about everything!

Haha! I completely agree!

Unfortunately I've attended many funerals in the past few years, the hardest one of course was my dad's. I never want to go to funerals, like others have said, I'm very sensitive and cry easily, and then I get embarassed. I had to speak at my dad's funeral, which was hard, but I really wanted...

It's very common in the area I live, and within my own family circle to date/marry outside your race. Nobody here really blinks an eye. I have absolutely no issue with it.

I'm so sorry to hear about your brother. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Grief has many stages, and what you're going through right now is pretty normal. Just allow yourself to feel a range of emotions, from anger to sadness to numbness. Everyone is different and...

I'm so sorry to hear of the loss of your mom. I can't think of anything comforting to tell you, except that I know exactly how you feel. My dad passed away about a year and a half ago from cancer. Just like you, I watched my parent die. Some days are harder than others, and I still have...

They did that on Canadian Idol last season. I thought it really added to the show and made it more interesting. When does AI start up again?

I highly recommend this book for women "If Singleness is a Gift, What's the Return Policy?" http://www.amazon.ca/Singleness-Gift-Whats-Return-Policy/dp/0785263292/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1196123413&sr=8-1

Toronto - born and raised.

I'm completely addicted to this show! As much as I love Helio (he seems like such a sweet man), I would love to see a woman win this season!

I love Body Pump too!!! I attend at the Goodlife Fitness clubs, they use the Les Mills classes. Body Pump is a great class, it targets all your muscle groups, and I've really seen results. Highly recommended!

I have a schedule: Monday - cardio (elliptical machine for 30 mins) Tuesday - weight lifting class Wednesday - yoga/pilates class Thursday - swimming class Friday - cardio (elliptical machine for 30 mins) If I miss a day I don't stress it, I just go as often as I can during the week.

Yup, the Weight Watchers system is all about teaching healthy eating habits and portion control. It doesn't advertise a quick fix, and you (typically) only lose 1 or 2 lbs per week, which is what is considered healthy for long term weight loss. I can't speak for any other popular method, as...

I like Clinique Happy. I have a small sample of it and just might invest in a bottle. I wear perfume very rarely so it lasts a long time for me.

I don't know if I can pick one thing! Every day I feel blessed that I have a job that I like, co-workers with whom I get along, family and friends who love me, and a paycheque adequate enough to support myself. I'm also thankful that I'm getting vacation next week!

I never crawled as a baby, and didn't walk until 18 months. My parents never worried about it, and there doesn't seem to be anything "wrong" with me! The reading comment is interesting, I've never heard that before (and as a non-crawler, I learned to read before kindergarten).
