princessbride12 says "Great service-Never had a problem." about US Cellular

princessbride12 — Thu, 17 Apr 2008 20:33:02 GMT

I have been with US Cellular for 5 years-ever since I first got a cell phone.
I have only had a problem with them once-something with my bill was off after
I renewed my contract. But that was quickly fixed by the friendly employee who
signed us up. I hardly ever have dropped calls and I never have static.
The price is reasonable with the family plan, too. I won't switch as long as
their service remains as good as it is now.
The only thing I don't like is that their chioces of cell phones is limited. I don't like
flip phones, so I usually only have 1 option.

princessbride12 says "The only mousse I like!!" about Garnier Fructis Style Volume Inject Mousse Ultra Strong Pack of 2 6.8 oz

princessbride12 — Sat, 12 Apr 2008 03:08:05 GMT

I never really liked using mousse until I used this product. It does not leave my hair sticky or stiff. No other mousse has done this for me. It is light and gives my hair great volume. ...

princessbride12 says "Great downtown Chicago hotel." about Hotel Sax Chicago - Chicago, IL

princessbride12 — Wed, 20 Feb 2008 04:03:38 GMT

I stayed at the Hotel Sax for a romantic weekend. It is a beautiful, modern hotel. The bathrooms in the rooms are huge! There were some nice touches, like jazz music playing in our room when we first arrived. There are 3 mini bars in the room, which I thought was excessive. And they are the kind where if you touch them, you get charged. Location is perfect-walking distance to Michigan Ave. shopping, theatre district, Millennium Park, etc. I got a discounted rate for this trip, but usually this is a pretty expensive hotel. If you're willing to pay for it, you will enjoy the hotel.

princessbride12 says "I love this movie." about Atonement

princessbride12 — Wed, 20 Feb 2008 03:57:50 GMT

This is just a great movie. I read the book first, and the movie is very true to the book. Of course, some things have to be left out, but I was very happy with how they made the film. Everything is beautiful to look at, and the dialogue is wonderful. I don't love the ending, so I only gave it 4 stars. A must see!!

princessbride12 says "I love this site!!" about The Daily Plate

princessbride12 — Sat, 22 Dec 2007 18:45:07 GMT

This is a great site for anyone trying to get control of what they eat. I am not overweight, but I was curious to see actually how many calories I was eating on an everyday basis. Put in your height, weight, and how much weight you're trying to lose (or gain), and The Daily Plate calculates how many calories you should be eating. Then you add the foods you eat by searching for them. For almost every food, the calories and nutritional information is already on the site. This site also calculates how much sodium, protein, carbs, sugars, etc you are eating every day. It is very easy to use and so helpful!...

princessbride12 says "A perfect retreat." about Camelback Inn, A JW Marriott Resort & Spa, Scottsdale - Scottsdale, AZ

princessbride12 — Sat, 22 Dec 2007 18:39:53 GMT

I normally wouldn't be able to afford this hotel, but I am a travel agent and was able to get a great rate. My mom and I spent a long weekend here. What a gorgeous place!! This is not a hotel. Nothing is more than 2 stories high. The property is spread out, and the room are actually bungalows with their own outdoor sitting area. It is so relaxing to walk around here. The staff was so wonderful. So friendly and helpful. We visited the spa on 2 days, and all the treatments were world-class. The pool area in the spa is beautiful, and again, the staff was excellent. Just sit down on a padded lounge chair, and within minutes you have a glass of ice water and a menu of healthy food, if you are hungry. The whole experience was amazing. Worth the price you would normally pay....

princessbride12 says "Very emotional" about A Thousand Splendid Suns

princessbride12 — Fri, 23 Nov 2007 20:26:22 GMT

This is just a great book. I liked it more than the Kite Runner, maybe because it was about women. This book really takes you outside of your comfort zone. To think of the horrors these women went through, and that it happened as recently as the 1990's, is just mind-blowing. The fact that they weren't even allowed to go out in public without a male or hold a job. This book really makes you realize that we are all pretty much the same, but the varous environments that we live in make us seem very different. A must read.

princessbride12 says "Great comfortable running shoes." about Adidas - Microbounce +LT

princessbride12 — Tue, 21 Aug 2007 18:43:22 GMT

I just bought these shoes for running. I did a lot of research before hand, and these seemed to be the best suited for my feet. They are good for people w/ high arches and neutral feet. They are very comfortable and really give you some bounce in your step. I added gel insoles because I have very narrow feet and they slid around a little bit. ...
