Whos in Florida or has been there? In case any of you either lives in Florida or has been to Florida Beaches, can any of you tell me which ones are the prettiest? Tell me about the beaches you've been to, their characteristics (e.g. color of sand, color of water, are there lots of plants (which) or specific animals (e.g. turtles? :D) and in which season you've been to them or which season is the best to be at the beaches there I've heard it's rather hot and I'd like to go to there in late summer/fall. Is it rainy during fall? In general I'm looking for a pretty location to go to for 1-2 weeks, I need great weather and such for it. Anything else you can suggest for a nice little vacation? :3 Preferably with water nearby. [b]Edit[/b]: in case

Your choice of apps After hearing about LINE from a friend (which is like WhatsApp but free incl. Voice and Video Call) I'd like to know what Apps you guys use mostly for communication. Not just the actual messenger apps but also what others you have to make it a fun experience for you! Same friend also suggested me SwiftKey. Best. Thing. Ever. Will be worth the 4$ for me honestly (though I've heard that that's horribly expensive comparably but I don't even mind honestly) What other apps do you use (e.g. to track your period? xD there's crazy stuff out there) and how much did they cost? Do you even use them frequently or is your phone just full of them and you don't even get to use half of them? (Also, is there a good cheap/free GPS App tha

Experience with Smartphones and Plans? Assuming most of you own a smartphone... I've started to look for the best way to get a smartphone here in America. Basically I need a phone that mostly will be used to go online (used for e.g. whatsapp) but then again I assume that having unlimited calls/texting (at least within US, doesn't really need to be international) is a big plus too.. I'm not familiar with the service providers (carriers?) in US (specifically NC). Who offers the best deal? (smartphone + plan) And who offers best connectivity? (It's not really useful if it's cheap but you can't connect to the internet most of the time..) What do you have and how much do you pay/does it cost (case given it's not you having to pay for it)?

Online Stores for Electronics in Usa I've been searching for a Sony Xperia Z all over the place and I wouldn't mind getting a used one IF it has warranty. Now, if I were in Germany I'd know where to look, there's a very awesome site that sells used electronics with 1 year warranty but then again the cheapest I've found was for 480$. Looked around on Ebay.com, found one in nearly mint condition with a tiny blemish on screen for 400$ (+optional warranty for 60$), so much for that. Still a lot of money though and my Fiance doesn't like the idea at all so I can't buy it. Do you guys know any sites or places that sell used electronics with warranty? I'd think I could find cheaper things out there but I have no experience with what USA offers :/

Experiences with your PSPampPSN So I recently I won an auction for a PSP on ebay (I hope it'll arrive soon :/) and it's the PSP 3004 (so 3000 series but German) I've been looking for games for it and got myself Lumines for 3 Euros and FF Dissidia for 4,50 Euros so far (I'm a cheap ass so I'm only looking for auctions atm :P) Now there are games I want that are seemingly only available in the Playstation Network Store (well basically only FFVII) but since I'll be taking my PSP to America I wanted to know if any of you know if I can just make a PSN account in America and get games there. I know that American UMD Movies are not playable on a German PSP (but are UMD Games? Oo I never really read about that) but i don't mind that. I just gotta d

Severe Case in your family? Has anyone experienced a family member suffering from something big? (Cancer, Stroke, Heart Attack, ...) Or have you even went through something like this yourself? How did the cases go? (recovery success, recovery duration - or did it end fatal?) How old was the person? Share your experiences here! And if you're in the middle of going through something like that (yourself or with a family member) then I do wish you the very best and I'm sorry about your situation! :(

Lingerie What do you guys think? So I haven't properly went for lingerie shopping in America yet and I wouldn't quite know where to get any (I've only walked past Victoria's secret but my Fiance and I couldn't go in there cause his mom and brother were around ; A ; dammit!) I'd love to go there someday but not by myself. Now, I'd want him to go with me of course (to tell me what he likes.. and other reasons ;D LOL) but he thinks it could be awkward being the only guy there. Is it true that only women are in lingerie shops? Do guys not go there with their women at all? Guys: If you have a girlfriend/fiancee/wife, have you went lingerie shopping with her before? Where were you? How was it? Girls: Have you went to one of these stores with your

your worst enemy or what makes you sick? I don't know why it is but i've noticed even more recently that I'm hardly able to eat anything unhealthy. Somehow my body's become sensitive (or I'm just more aware of it), for example when I eat something sweet like a muffin it doesn't take long until my body starts to feel sick/"poisoned"/"contaminated". How is it with you? Are there any foods that make you feel sick? Any foods that actually make you feel healthier? Also, how is your eating routine (how often do you eat and how big are your meals)? When do you stop eating? (when you feel full or when you're not hungry anymore?) Yesterday I ate 2 sandwiches (white bread) and a muffin :/ I had thought after not eating for a while

How is your skin? Any tips? Hello Basil. I've found a new hobby which is: Nose strips. For some reason it's really fun but I'm not sure if it helped improve my skin actually. [b]How is your skin? Do you have any black heads/wide pores?[/b] A friend of mine has a limited area on her cheek that looks 100% flawless but she also has tiny blackheads spread all over her nose. [b]Do any of you have flawless nose skin?[/b] [b]If yes, how'd you manage to do that?[/b] [b]Have you been able to get rid of black heads completely before? How?[/b] I'm considering getting my skin cleaned by a professional.

German with Nashi, lesson 1 Personal pronounPresent Tense ~Personal Pronouns~ Singular ich - I du - you er/sie/es - he/she/it Plural wir - we ihr - you sie - they Verbs in present tense Verbs in German end with -en or -n. Examples are "spiel[b]en[/b]" (to play), "lauf[b]en[/b]" (to walk), ... to be able to use verbs with personal pronouns you will have to find the root of the word. For this you only have to take away -en or -n. to apply it to a personal pronoun you will have to add it to a "forumla" which is as follows: ich [root][b]e[/b] du [root][b]st[/b] er/sie/es [root][b]t[/b] wir [root][b]en[/b] ihr [root][b]t[/b] sie [root][b]en[/b] Example "spielen" spielen -en -> root = spiel ich [spiel]e

Oh, you, Asia help Recently I've been getting more motivated to learn japanese. I noticed I've picked up single words over the years (maybe a dozen :P) that I notice when listening to songs or reading romaji. Now, Last time I tried to learn Japanese I started off with learning Hiragana/Katakana. I managed to recall them all plus 10 kanji but when it came down to learn grammar and all (and I only had a book for it) I got bored quickly. I forgot most of it by now of course (it's probably been far over 6 years by now) Do any of you have experience learning japanese - or any kind of asian language, really? I'm not so sure on how to strategically approach it. What to learn first? Vocabulary? Writing? Grammar? And when it's about the vocabulary d
