    How can I break this cycle of laziness?

    I live at home and I go to college 20 minutes away... I feel complacent and not challenged, so I just stay home all the time because it's easy...

    Why don't aircraft manufacturers design planes to float?

    Poll: Would you be afraid to live in a death penalty state, even if you committed no

    crime? See, I would be since people are sometimes wrongfully convicted. I could be connected to some situation by a thin thread... and the consequence is horrible... It's a risk unto itself, and I find places that still have the death penalty to be somewhat barbaric... To tell the truth, I'm...

    How hard would it be for a bio major to get a job in business compared to someone...

    ...who majored in business? For ex. I want to study biology and philosophy in hopes of becoming either a doctor or lawyer... but what if I either fail or don't want to do either, after all? What if I want to go into, say, finance or something??? Just how hard would it be for me to get jobs in...
