Just hoping for a few pieces of advice concerning the often overlooked things when moving into your first apartment. I have lived in an apartment before, but I was added onto the lease, so everything was already there and set up. I'm moving tomorrow, and I just know there are a few things that I'm going to slap myself for forgetting about, so I thought I'd ask for advice. To clarify...

Coming from my old apartment which was furnished by a friend, I only really have a coffee maker :/ So, I need to stock my new kitchen, and I'm looking for some help. 1) Where is a good place to get my housewares? 2) What do I need to get? So, I made a short list of the things I think I'll need; I don't know if I actually need ...

I've got a bit of a pickle on my hands. I've been in the market for an appartment for awhile, and I finally found one and signed the lease. It's a decent place, 2 bedroom, 1 bath, and I'm rooming with one of my good friends. My main concern is, I have no idea how to furnish it :O My last place was already furnished by my roomate, so this will be my first time furnishing an apartment. ...

It's actually so awesome to be able to open up TL and immediately know what the most important things in starcraft at this moment are. It's so much easier to keep up with everything and know what's going on without having to dig around. It's so...

I can't seem to win right now. Im on a huge losing streak for like a week. I can't seem to do anything right. To make matters worse, I think I've played only 5ish standard games out of the last like 80 games :( I know it's part of the game, and I don't like complaining about it, but it just seems I can't find a standard game for the life of me. I've gotten a ton of proy 2...

Not anything out of control, but fairly long bangs, covering the ears; not shoulder length or anything. Sadly, I have a problem. Whenever I wear my hair long, if I take a shower in the morning, by lunchtime my hair explodes. What starts out as something like this Ends up like this: Perhaps that's a hyperbole, but you can see what I'm getting at. I...

What does this word mean to you? Is it the stoic athletic machine on your Wheaties box? Perhaps the Olympian astride the winner's podium? The dictionary would tell us that a champion is simply the person who takes first place in a competition, however, the word champion means something different to me. For me, a champion is someone who has a goal of being great and puts his heart and...

I decided to check to see what it was, I figured it was probably someone stopping by to visit. I look outside and some people are stopped outside my driveway and they drive off. I figured they might have it a deer or something (or maybe the neighbors dog) and drove off so they didn't have to deal with it. I went outside to see if there was ...

While I can't deny that as a group we are capable of some amazing things (sending players to events, donating thousands upon thousands of dollars to charities, etc), lately I have been experiencing some frustrations with the community. 1) The first and biggest frustration I have is that in ...

I've watched a few Korean players reps that have all their hatches set to different hotkeys and the rallies are naturally ...

I'm really enjoying some to most of what I'm hearing, but sometimes I'll hear something and just really not like it and I can't explain why. To be honest I can't explain why I like the EDM I do like either. It's a weird situation for me because I can't really identify with what I like and seek that. When I'm listenin...

In the last year or two my musical tastes have really been adapting from my old standby's of Social Distortion, Against Me!, Rise Against, Black Flag, Dead Kennedy's, Bad Religion, etc into a more eclectic taste. While I still thoroughly enjoy that style of music, I have really become an avid fan of soft music. Perhaps that's not the best way to describe it, but from the upbeat ho...

The games were heartbreaking to watch, as I didn't feel Tyler played up to his potential, but what rea...

Upsets abound, and the games have been fantastic. I throughly enjoyed all the matches, but after watching IdrA vs CrunCher, I couldn't help but to be depressed. IdrA has always been the zerg to look up to in the west if you played a macro style, even if he isn't necess...

So I set about doing some hyping of some of my favorite players for TSL3 to start. Long shot prediction here, but I'm gunning for a Tyler v IdrA final, the rematch of a lifetime(as chill might put it)! NonY's been looking scary good lately and I think there's a good shot at IdrA making it if he can pull ... Thu, 17 Mar 2011 00:24:58 +0900 http://www.teamliquid.net/blogs/viewblog.php?topic_id=201842
