It seems that those two comments come up quite often when discussions about free time are asked. I have always wondered just what it takes to be considered as "having a life." Does it mean involvement with activities, sports, work, and/or family, taking trips with family or friends, or just hanging out with movie nights or parties? Does loving to be home with family and doing nothing count as having a life?
How many friends does one need to have to avoid comments like "get some friends"? is having one good friend , good enough? Or does one need several wishy-washy friends?
What is the "under 20" view of having a life and friendship?

No Coca-cola zone
OK- I have officially been free of Coca-cola for 16 days. It was not easy to go cold turkey from my two-a-day (sometimes three) habit, but I did it. How do I feel? Exactly the same minus some stomach acid issues in the morning. Was it worth it? Yes. I honestly did not think that I could exist without my Coke, but I have learned that I am stronger that I thought. I still crave it, but researchers says that after 21 days, those craving centers in my brain will begin to shut down and I will crave Coke less each day. So what is next? Coffee- especially French Vanilla Cafe, which is a huge part of my daily routine. I have begun to drink herbal tea and hot cocoa, so hopefully the transition will not be too traumatic.
So are any of you ready to give up a vice?
