Personal Ads - an Online Guide

With Cyberspace, it's just letters on a screen. In the most literal way possible, you are only as good as your word. How you present yourself is who you are. If you are getting yourself ready to go to meet your future life's partner, you will likely be taking meticulous care with your presentation. You may be thinking and planning for weeks. Perhaps you are treating yourself to a makeover, spending money and paying attention to how you look, ina way you have not done in years. Maybe you buy several outfits and try them on over and over, trying to get a sense of what presents you the most favorably. Maybe you buy a gift or flowers to show your pleasure to your new love. You are fastidious, down to the last detail. This is exactly the attitude that you need to take in writing your profile. You want the best of you to show. You want to be sure that your buttons are buttoned and your hair is just so. You want to look *fine.* After all, finally seeing that special someone and those first few minutes of direct contact may be the most important few minutes of the rest of your life. With your Internet matchmaking profile, you have just a few minutes, maybe only a few seconds, to make your impression. And every second has to count. The Best Preparation Educate yourself - get online and start looking at what others are writing. Some sites allow you to look around, even to do searches for potential matches using gender, age and geographical location. A place to start might be Match.com, reviewed in the April issue of *eMAIL to eMATE.* Try some other sites, too, like Matchmaker.com reviewed below in this issue, and note the differences.

Popular One's Place in Society One's Place in SocietyAuthor: Colby MorrisonThe desire of pleasing is, of course, the basis of social connexion. Persons who enter society with the intention of producing an effect, and of being distinguished, however clever they may be, are never agreeable. They are always tiresome, and often ridiculous. Persons, who enter life with such pretensions, have no opportunity for improving themselves and profiting by experience. They are not in a proper state to observe: indeed, they look only for the effect which they produce, and with that they are not often gratified. They thrust themselves into all conversations, indulge in continual anecdotes, which are varied only by dull disquisitions, listen to others with impatience and heedlessness, and are angry that they seem to be attending to themselves.

News Top Ten Reasons to Homeschool Top Ten Reasons to HomeschoolAuthor: Julie ClarkAs I approach this topic, I realize how ridiculous it is to assume that I can write about "THE" Top 10 reasons to homeschool. One of the main reasons to homeschool your children is that you can be at the helm. You can do it for whatever reason you want in whatever way you want, so for me to assume that I could come up with the definitive top ten reasons seems kind of silly. My top 10 reasons are top ten for me. There are many homeschooling families I know whose reasons are vastly different from mine.
