I beg to differ having just moved to Singapore from London where the take/twist on modern british has improved.

I completely agree with poodlek.

Medication has its place as treating the symtoms but ultimately the source of the problem needs to be dealt with,be it change in lifestyle, CBT etc., in order to halt of repeat epidsodes.

My shipping co suggested decanting all my DVDs from the boxes and take them as luggage when flying in. This was not to circumvent the authorities as you should declare them on arrival, but the shipping co said that customs checks the DVDs and charge $3 per hour. Dont know if they watch everything or...

HR dept swapped over the details of my degree and masters. They stated my degree with the dates of when I did my masters. By the sounds of it, given MOM sent an in-principle letter based on my degree when I have a masters, would be a good sign. Just dislike the idea of having to sign a declaration w...
