when you are watching a promotional or travel video about a certain country and there is something that looks like subtitles saying for example :"if you are interested in finding out more about X then check out www........ or www........" this sentence is moving from the right to the left as you are watching...

does anyone knows what this is called??

thanks!!!!

I have been looking for a white light bulb for weeks!! and I bought so many bulbs from tesco and I had to return them because they turned out to be yellow! where can I find a white bulb or at least a place where sellers are sure about their products?

I live at university accommodation and I can't stand yellow light !!

thanks in advance!

and by seafood I mean something like shrimps that is not frozen. and where can I find good quality and fresh fish?

I'm packing and I will be in Manchester in few days!

I come from a hot country and I'm not sure about what to bring ! I know there is central heating and all but I heard it rains all the time there...

I took two coats and lights jackets...

I wonder if I will need sandals or it's just boots?

what do you wear indoors? do I need to bring summer clothes?

any recommendations will be very appreciated !!

P.S. I'm staying for a long time in MA.

Thanks in advance :)

I'm moving to study and live in Manchester. I'd like to know where I can find and buy hearing aid batteries.

That would be great if anyone can tell me how much as well (battery number 10/yellow/ smallest ones)

Thanks in advance. :)

I'm moving to UK to study in Manchester! I'm so excited and I would like to be well prepared.

Would anyone please tell me any useful tips/advice as to what people are like (example: cultural differences I should expect), best places to go to and meet new interesting people, best places to eat , best shopping malls! what is the weather like? what type of clothes should I bring?

Thanks in advance! :)

I love this quote! When it crossed my eyes for the first time, I felt how deep it is and it made a perfect sense for me. It has changed many things in me, in the way I act and deal with many things.

What do you think?

Is hiding the truth from someone you care about like lying at them?

Nowadays , there are so many news and events... one day people are so concerned about a natural disaster or a war in a certain place. the other day , they are interested in the latest fashion or a sport event...

"who cares! I'm living my life and it is all that matters now..."

I'm just wondering how worse this world can be ...

My professor is a great teacher !! he is so supportive and so kind! He helped me a LOT during my four years at university and I don't know how to thank him!! any ideas?

Are there rules as to who deserves to be given a second chance?

what makes life really worth living it in the end? regardless of religion and anything that is beyond the human being himself.

any insights I'm a little bit depressed these days...

I'm seeing a guy that I know for about 3 years. He is not a bad guy though he has some flaws. I know about his history with girls when we were simple friends. Now, we are seeing each other seriously and I don't know if I can trust him. I tried over the years to change his habit of knowing many "girls" and being kind to all of them. he thinks it's ok to be 'kind' with all girls. He is afraid of commitment and I wanted to change that in him. A man his age should be mature and responsible.

My question is even if I succeed in changing him for the better do you think he will remain faithful to me if things get serious? do you think it is possible for him to abandon this habit?

Let me give a simple example: the word umbrella. It serves a function as any object used by man. But when you rip the cloth off the umbrella , is the umbrella still an umbrella?

now what about abstract concepts in life such as love: once someone says : "I don't love you anymore". Was that even love in the first place ?

we keep using the same words for things that can stop functioning or corresponding to its definition...it's confusing..

what do you think?

I was having a conversation in which some people expressed their 'fear of freedom' and their interest of 'security'. When I prefer to rebel on things that I do not agree with and see as limiting my freedom , some other people just take them for granted and accept them.

what do you guys think?

still wondering...

is hell just a symbol? a metaphor maybe?

well, I dunno sometimes it's really astonishing to find people eager and willing to do the things that are classified as "sins" or what are "banned" by religions or society! why when doing them secretly is such a delectation? Can the norms and the rules be really used by politics and religions as a type of enslavement? but at the same time, what if there are no rules, doesn't it lead to chaoes?

what if we just get used to the "new requirements" of life? of our needs (of course they develop over time)? doesn't it become normal and everybody just do whatever he or she wants without fear or in secret?

is it even possible?

this is a quote I really like!! I would like to see whether share the same thoughts as me or not!

so what does this means to you???

I was thinking about this when trying to sleep and I couldn't close my eyes! I'm preparing myself to sleep so I close my eyes, then what?
