Top 10 Myths about Introverts
suzywire:
Myth #1 – Introverts don’t like to talk. This is not true. Introverts just don’t talk unless they have something to say. They hate small talk. Get an introvert talking about something they are interested in, and they won’t shut up for days.
Myth #2 – Introverts are shy. Shyness has nothing to do with being an Introvert. Introverts are not necessarily afraid of people. What they need...

Higher Education: Is it really the next bubble? →
metheliving:
Education is a bubble in a classic sense. To call something a bubble, it must be overpriced and there must be an intense belief in it. Housing was a classic bubble, as were tech stocks in the ’90s, because they were both very overvalued, but there was an incredibly widespread belief that almost could not be questioned — you had to own a house in 2005, and you had to be in an...

Seems that I can’t install EOS Utility on my laptop. How the hell am I suppose to download Picture styles for our camera if I don’t have EOS Utility. Lameeee.
It’s a connectivity setting in your camera’s menu that you need to change. Then you can just copy/paste without having the utility.

a day in the life.
stefhu:
I’ve been having long, hellish days.. that surprisingly make me feel exhausted, but whole.
It starts at 7 in the morning, forcing my body out of bed as my clouded brain contemplates the different excuses I could use to skip work. Fortunately a cup of hot coffee usually chases these thoughts away.

The world is at my feet and it’s no wonder Your eyes speak to me, they tell me be calm They tell me be strong Swimming out so deep, now I can’t breathe And it’s exactly where I belong Cause it feels like the ride of a lifetime And nothing is gonna save us now Let the waves come crashing down.
