Should I drive my vehicle with 72000 miles on a 1400 mile round trip?

With the Hollidays upon us there comes the expectation of winter. And with that winter vacations… where’s your go to for winter getaways. Do you prefer getting away to the warm wether and sunny beaches

Or somewhere cold and mountainous.

Was continuing through the too-large pile of books next to my bed when I marked a page. Yes, I confess, I'm a dog-earer. I actually like bookmarks as things, just not using them. What do you do?

For extra credit, here's a neat article about the history of dog earing: https://www.dw.com/en/world-book-day-history-of-the-dog-ear-bookmark/a-57311160

• Mauritius (island on the coast)
• The Seychelles
• South Africa
• Nigeria

I realized the commute experience for those living on/near campus and those farther away differ completely. While a student on campus can wake up a mere 10-30min before class and still make it on time, for me to get to morning class on time, I need to wake up 2.5h before class. Most especially because I have to plan around buses which come every 40-60 minutes and only during some hours of the day, which means I wake up early & sleep-deprived and still arrive 30-60min before class, as taking the next bus would mean I'd be late to class or miss it entirely (if a later bus is non-existent).

Thus, compared to many of my classmates who spend ~10-30minutes/day on commute (walking) each day, I spend ~2.5h/day (walking, car/bus, metro) on my commute and the time lost due to waiting for the next mode of transport is ~0.5h/day and arriving earlier than my class is another ~0.5h/day.

Thus, based on comparisons with classmates:
Students residing on/near campus : ~0.5h/day from home to first lecture, last lecture to home
Me, as a commuter: ~3.5h/day from home to first lecture, last lecture to home

And so, assessing overall, (depending on my mode of transportation) on my longest day, I leave my house at 7:20am or 7:40am and arrive home at 9pm; on my shortest days, I leave my house at 7:20am and arrive home at 5:10pm.
Meaning on my longest day I spend 13h20min away from home and on my shortest days I spend 9h50min away from home.

But I wonder, is it my experience which is generally abnormal or is it theirs (classmates living near/on campus)?

So, how much time do you spend on commute?

I prefer it closed. because that's how it gets better. Also, if I'm a passenger, a light-free environment is always better for sleeping.

And by "requiring", I mean if authorities are actually enforcing it

Your good friend Richard just got back from his vacation to a place that he knows you'd like to visit, so he emailed you some pictures of his vacation.

Is it okay for you to refer to these as Dick pics?

Not sure but this winter i want to go to spas for a few days in another city in my own country. I hope it will. I'm not planning to take a ski holiday anyway I don't like it too expensive.
