Is it hard to get into a get into a good University of you didn't have good grades in 9th and 10th grade?

Hi, I'm going to the 11th grade. I only have two years left in school and I didn't do that well in my freshman & sophomore year in high school at all. I just got by just to be honest. I don't want that on my college resume. I want to have excellent ACT/SAT scores and have great grades for my upcoming junior & senior year of high school. I know that colleges look at your high school grades starting freshman year, but I'm not giving up. So my question is, if I get great grades,work really hard,get involved in some sort of an extra curricular activity,score well in on my ACT/SAT test(s), and rank top of my class, do you think I have a shot of getting into a good college such as USC, Berkley, or maybe even Vanderbilt University? I know that they are competitive colleges, but I want a full ride scholarship. Help please!! What should I do???

If you have yahoo fantasy football set to autopick can you watch draft and make pick during draft?

Should I kill myself?

Suicide is not a solution of problems. Don't think about it. If your girlfriend has left you may be there is someone better than her is waiting for you.Life is so big. But don't ruin it, enjoy it.

Im leading a guy on and feel bad and confused about it?

I think you're just retracting your feelings towards him because you told him how you felt, and you're scared of his sincere response. Don't be afraid to show your feelings if you know him really well. Just make sure he's not leading YOU on. And if he asks you out, ask for some time to think it out, assess your feelings, and then answer. Don't do what you don't want to do. I was in this kind of a relationship with a guy for two months. He is a great friend, and I thought at first that I was really interested, but I wasn't, and eventually, I was interested in another guy, and I had to break it off. Just use whatever you do as a life experience.

Im 16 pregnant and in foster care in CA is it true ALL visits must be supervised?

Well I was having abusive problems with my parent at home (whom didnt know I was pregnant) and was kicked out and taken in by the foster care system, after two months. My foster mother was very kind at first but quickly changed when my boyfriend came around and I had thoughts of going back home since my parent and I had fixed things and forgiven each other after she had therapy (which is still continuing at the moment). My foster mother is very controlling and she wants to be watching me and my boyfriend 24/7. She never lets me go out with my friends and says she has to meet everyone of them before they could get supervised visits. Shes always watching what Im doing and its been a bit creepy lately since shes been thinking shes my real mom. Shes been lying about a couple things and I really want to leave her or at least get some time away from her and be with the people I love.She says my boyfriend can only see me 6hours a day when the babys here and I dont think thats fair because he works so hard everyday except Sundays which she refuses to let me see him on Sundays and not even go to church with him which we always did. Im tired of being isolated and it just being her. Im very suffocated by her being around me all the time and trying to control how I think and what I do. I was wondering if anybody knows if all visits must be supervised 24/7? Ive talked to my social worker and she said she has to know who Im with but not always be around. Does anyone know how I can get out of this mess before my baby comes? I am 40 weeks pregnant.

I put too much pressure on myself?

I always get really upset if I don't do something well. If I mess up in softball I cry and get really upset worrying that if we lose, it will be my fault. I am a straight A student as well ranked, top of my class, but now i'm #2 and kind of upset. I got all A+ and i feel like all that hard work was for nothing and made me go down. I get really frustrated sometimes when i don't get something and break down. I pressure myself not to cry over the littlest things, but i end up breaking down anyways. I really do want to be top of my class, but how can i convince myself that it's okay to make mistakes and try not to cry over the littlest things?

What majors are these colleges good for?

You should be doing the opposite. You should see what you want to do and then see which colleges are good in those categories, not the other way around.

Why does it seem that no matter what I do I can't seem to please them?

My parents raised me up in a baptist religion and that's what I have believed my whole entire life. I am turning 17 soon and I feel like my life has done an 180. My parents built their dream home, but it's not the home that makes the family, it's the family that makes the home. Both my parents are manipulators and are being very cruel, mean, and ridiculous. Example: My OWN dad calls me fat and I won't amount to anything. Threatens to kick me out. I can't hang with my friends because of him and I know when I was younger he never gave a **** on what I do. He's never cared but now he likes to manipulate me and put me in a lousy position and it sucks. My mother is depressed and doesn't care. I just want to know is it me? Or them? Or God? I've tried to hold on with all grasp of Christ, but this has been going on for years and in the bible it says you will be rewarded for your good deeds. Now I know it isn't a huge reward but just give me a pat on the back so I know he's there. I really don't know what to do, think, or believe. I literally have no one to lean on and I am suffocating here. I am someone who ALWAYS puts others above themselves to make them feel better no matter how much **** I am going through myself. I try so hard for nothing, I don't know what to do! Help?

Do you think I have a chance at Upenn?

I want to be a nurse. I am in HOSA, I have a 3.8 Gpa, I'm hoping to get at least a 28- hopefully higher on the ACT ( wish me luck ;) ) I plan on taking all Health science course, I plan on taking all courses in Spanish, I really want to get a couple hundred hours of charity and volunteer work. I'm not in AP because my school no longer offers them because of no child left behind. I'm not great at math but I try my hardest, I am pretty good at any form of science and language. But like I said math is not my strong point... I am certain I can pull out one amazing recommendation. If you could give me a little guidance on what UPENN is looking for and things I should add or do please tell me. I want to do a early decision too. I played violin for 3 years and a class in piano in middle school but that doesn't sound very impressive. I'm also looking at vanderbilt and should I not get accepted to either, I'm almost positive I'll get into Pittsburgh. Do you think I have a chance? What can I do that will make me stand out a little more- I'm not a genius nor extremely gifted but I'm dedicated to my future career and feel a passion for health sciences. I hope to travel abroad at least once during my next 3 summers ( I am a freshman, so I have a lot of time to work and figure things out. I think its important to start thinking about this so I'm prepared. Any advice is appreciated ) please no " don't you know how much school costs?" Or " It's too early to think about this." Please only constructive advice...THANK YOU, YOUR ANSWERS ARE APPRECIATED ;)

I'd always go with the Law degree but that pretty much takes you down a few career paths. The PPE is more likely to keep options open as it is a diverse group of subjects

From the end of the Civil War to 1900 industrialization radically changed the United States. How did the industrialists like Cornelius Vanderbilt and Gustavus Swift help create that change, for good or for ill, and how did these changes affect the workers' lives?.

How do i deal with this clingy friend of mine?

i have this friend who seems to be overly immature (we're both 16) and is super clingy (unfortunately to me). she moved to my middle school in the 7th grade, she didnt have friends yet, so my close friend who happens to be a very sociable and bubbly person befriended her so she would get used to the new school.. for the following two years, we became the-three-musketeers sort of thing, always seen together everywhere & very close.. here's the thing, i'm more of an introvert, i prefer watching a movie at home on a saturday night rather than going out partying, while my other bestie who's the sociable one happens to be the exact opposite, being the life of any party and an easy person to talk to.. and the new girl at first was quiet (i guess thats typical for newcomers in any school) then gradually became louder in an annoying and immature way (eg, she would poke someone's *** as a way of greeting, constantly bothering someone particularty when they're busy if she's bored).. anyhoo, we get along well with each other in spite of our diverse ways.. i do realise that we make a unique combo of friends and i appreciate it a lot, actually, in thinking that most of the girls at the time were a bunch of sluts trying to get attention lol XD and we werent, we were always up to the randomest stuff..then last year, the sociable friend moved somewhere else cuz of some of her family stuff, which left me and her in our used to be trio.. and somehow after that, her inner annoyingness and immaturity came to live. she got freakin annoying. i can swear that everyone was hating her for that. one thing i loved about her was about her randomness cuz thats what we have in common, but too much often does she becomes overly immature cuz of that. the worst part is that she is super clingy to me, i undrstand cuz i was one of her first close friends in here.. she refuses to leave me alone, gets mad when i go out with other friends, even talk to other people for too long :/ i get that i might be her only super close friend, but i just cant stand the fact that she's suffocating me by clinging on to me literally 24/7!!! (on the phone, if not in school or elsewhere) i know how i am introvert, and i am trying to expand my social circle but with her being all over me i just cant, literally.sometimes i think of ditching her cuz i just cant stand her, but i cant cuz she doesnt have any other friends! ofcourse she does talk to people, but she never makes close friends with them.... i swear that i feel like punching her in the face sometimes cuz she even made fun of me and my ex calling each other 'dear', 'honey' and those stuff, i mean, she acts childish. she shares a lot of her secrets with me, most are her fantasies...but its so hard to share my secrets cuz shes not open, as u can see how she made fun of something so usual like my ex calling me 'honey'.. i have no idea how i should deal with this, i've tried making new friends for her to be friends with but they ended up becoming much too annoyed with her. i've thought of ditching her but i'd feel guilty.. i have to admit, these days, i get much too annoyed with her than happy being her friend.

Do I need the retake the writing test on the ACT when I retake the ACT?

I'm wanting to get into Vanderbilt. This was my first time taking the ACT and I made a 29 and an 8 on the writing portion. I'm going to retake the ACT to get in the 30's, but do I need to retake the writing test with it for Vanderbilt? I'm happy with the writing score, but I don't know if it is necessary to retake it or if I only have to take it once for Vanderbilt to accept it.

Want to talk, but I'm scared.?

I want to talk to my ex, we have hung out all weekend, and she cried to me one night when we were talking about stuff. I want to know where she stands, and want to keep talking about stuff, but I don't want to suffocate her. We have been broken up for 10 months, and have tried getting together once a few months ago, but I made her feel pressured. I want to know what I can do to make sure this time it works, I want to talk to her, but I don't want to make her feel pressured again, so I want to take it slow, but I don't know when she will message me. Can you guys give me some advice?

What are my chances of getting into an ivy/top school?

Don't worry about the PSAT, I got what you got and ended up getting a 2100 on the real SAT, and I got accepted to Penn's Wharton school. It looks like you've done A LOT of extracurricular stuff - which is awesome and is very important in the application process - but the MOST important thing is how you perform in your college prep (primarily AP) classes. Yes, you're on the right track by taking 10 APs, but you need to focus on putting forth all the effort you can in those classes. At the rate you're going, you have a good shot at many of the schools on your list, provided you keep it all up and you do well over the next 2 years. Good luck!

Why are my emotions so messed up?

I think I cry too much and am too sensitive for a 15 year old girl. For example, tonight I started balling over something little. Me and a friend are going to the city fair this week and we hadn't decided what time we wanted to go. Everyone involved said it didn't really matter. For some reason, I felt like it was my choice to decide even though it wasn't. When I asked my mom, she got annoyed and I started balling like almost suffocating myself. After going to my room and calming down, I felt the need to apologize and did which led to more crying. I've also almost gotten out if a moving car while crying over something stupid. I don't understand why this happens to me. Is it normal? Thanks.

I never touched the ropes though. why do I feel like I'm being told to do this stuff and why do I find myself almost giving in sometimes?

Really really weird dream need help interpreting it?

I had this dream a couple weaks ago, but it's still fresh in my memory. When I dreamt it, it was as though it was really happening. I had dreamt that I was at the bus stop and there was a man in a body bag. He was squirming and suffocating, trying to call for help, but was too weak to do so. We (everyone at the bus stop) all had gathered around and were wanting to open it for him, but were too afraid to do so. We were too afraid of what we would see. Then someone had called 9-11 and an ambulance came by. They opened it and as they were opening it, the man inside was saying: "Please amputate me." Which is strange, because his legs were chopped off and metals poles were put in their place. A note was left - and in that note, the man who had committed this act talked about how he, the man writing, was black and becuase he was black, he was born as the wretched of the earth and had no hope for money, that his existence was doomed from the beginning. The man in the body bag was someone who interviewed the black guy, but ultimately did not hire the black guy. So, the black guy was frustrated and did that to the guy in the body bag as an act of rebellion against God. Really really strange.

Barack Obama best president ever?

Ok first of all Barack is the first Black man. Second of all he went to Standford and got strait A's. He is the smartest president in the history of the America.

Most of us know he is a great president. But I want to know how well he ranks all time. Is he the best? Or is he like number 5?

Why do most girls seem to dislike Hispanic guys?

One, let me explain something to you. You are beautiful the way you are. Don't you ever let society or any female alter the way you feel about yourself. Maybe in some communities that may be the way girls like it, but in my predominantly African-American and Latino community you would be an ideal guy.I saw your pic, I would most definitely look at you if I saw you on the street. Me personally, I don't care about race, color, ethnicity, eye or hair color. But unfortunately everyone isn't like that. And you shouldn't let what other people think influence how you are. If you want to change the way you look, do it because that is what you want. Please stay the way you are, because a good girl is going to come along and like you for what you are. Beautiful. It's not that people don't like Latinos, because I could name 1,000 girls that would kill to be with you. It's just the media portraying a person that isn't even real.

University of choice is Stanford. Am I good enough? Help Please!!?

Going to a college doesn't help you getting into their law school, and you do not need to attend a top law school to be a divorce lawyer. That job often doesn't pay very well, so you're much better off at a state school where the program would be much cheaper - there are tons of out of work lawyers who can't pay off their student loan debt, and 7 years at Stanford would cost a ridiculous amount of money. Same for Columbia (Colombia is the country, Columbia is the university). Anyway, everyone applying to Stanford has the highest grades in the hardest classes and very high test scores, and they take less than 10% of applicants. Also, they want unweighted GPAs. Right now, you're not competitive for a top school.

Vanderbilt University: Will I get in?

18% acceptance rate? Wow I had no idea Vandy was that competitive. You should be fine. 3rd in whole class with plenty of extra-curriculars and sure your SATs could be a little better, but write a fabulous personal statement and do the interviews if they're offered.

Do you think I could get into Columbia University?

I'm about to be a senior. I know my grades are gonna be a whole lot better. Right now I have a 3.75 GPA. I'm a FCCLA officer, HOSA officer, Drum Major in Band. I'm in art club, Beta Club. I'm a volunteer at Vanderbilt children's hospital. I'm taking 2 out the 3 available AP classes at my school. I do some community service, and i take all honors classes. I'm in the top 15% percent of my class. I made a 26 on my act, but im hoping to make a thirty on it next time. What can I do to make myself more competitive. Its my dream school. Also, i did well on the psat. I think i'll do good on the Sat.

Marvel vs. Capcom 3 for Xbox 360 - how to get better at the game?

So I've been playing for a while on arcade and I feel like I'm pretty good. I've tried it on very hard and I got up to like the 4th battle. I recenty got Xbox Live and now that I'm playing against real people I suck so bad. :P I've done like 100 Xbox Live battles and I've literally only won 15 times. :( I was a 9th ranger then went down to fight then 9th ranger again and now I'm once again a fighter. They always pair me up with people I have no chance against though like 9th lords and judges or whatever.

By graduation, I will have been a member of the Spanish Honors Society for 2 years, and participated in both Track and Cross Country for 4 years. What would be my chances at getting into Wharton based on this?

Guy troubles: Why did he say this to me?

This guy that I like is named Nick and he supposedly likes me because he told my girl friend and his friends and told me im pretty and also told my friend he would ask me out over a month ago (never did). Yesterday in Social Studies class, my friend Mike was trying to taze me as a joke (he has a girlfriend.) I wasn't trying to flirt with him. Later on, Nick came up to me in front of his friend and goes, "Olivia why do you try? You show off in front of all of the guys it's like get out of the f*cking closet!". With a serious face. I just smirked, but then I stayed away from all the guys because I was so upset. Then, Nick was walking down the hallway with his friend and out loud said, "Hey you!" and noticed he was talking to me and said "I'm gonna sit on you with my butt cheeks and have you suffocate" and I just laughed. Then he said, "Ugh I hate this substitute" for a class we had. Then randomly he said, "Sooo...you and Mike?" I wanna tell Nick how I feel, but I feel like I blew it because I think he's mad at me. I was going to text him how I feel today, but what if he doesn't reply? What do I do?

Do you think I can get into Vanderbilt University or Boston College?

Some explain this for me. How can Djokavic automatically move up to rank 1 even if Nadal beats him on Sunday?

At the start of the tournament, Novak had 12,005 points and Nadal had 12,070 points. If Nadal wins Wimbledon, he will still have 12,070 points, but if he loses, his tally will go down. Novak was defending a semi final spot from last year so by making the finals he has gained a few hundred points already, so even if he loses in the final, he will have greater than 12,070 points and hence he will be #1 on Monday.

What university is better to go to?

Yeah, like said above, you cannot go wrong with either choice. Both of them are fantastic schools and you will get a great job from either of them. I would pick whichever one is cheaper for you and whichever school you think will suit your style the best. I would probably pick Georgetown because of it being in Washington D.C. and I like the religious affiliation with it also.

How to get ants out of a laptop keyboard?

So I was not being very smart and needed my computer outside to check something, and I set it in the grass for awhile. When I brought it back in I noticed some ants underneath, on my desk, or coming out of the key board. Altogether, I probably saw about 10 probably, but I was wondering how I could tell if there were more, if this is a big problem, and how to get rid of them! (For now I have the laptop turned off in plastic bags, hopefully that might suffocate them or something?)

What kind of schools would accept me?

I attend a small, rural high school (<50 students in my class). My GPA is a 3.9477 (on the 4 point scale, no weighted classes). I took the ACT for the first time and got a 29 (32 English, 27 Math, 28 Reading, 28 Science). I retook it, but have not yet gotten my scores. I will be a high school senior this fall, and will be dual-enrolling to a community college in my core subject areas. Assuming my GPA doesn't change next year, what kinds of universities will likely accept me? I have aspirations of attending Vanderbilt if I can get in.

Is it okay to transfer colleges twice?

I started at Florida Atlantic University, then transferred to Auburn for the sophomore year. I didn't feel comfortable there because of the redneck proximity, the remoteness of the campus, and the difficulty of the courses (it's ranked most difficult 16). I have two more years of college left, would it be common sense for me to transfer to another university (this is the last time) for the other two?

Confused about this odd situation with my dad?

Ok, I have an unusual problem with my dad. I'm a 19 year old guy, and my dad still treats me as if I were a little kid. I don't mean as in the way of over protection, but like he has babyish nicknames for me, makes silly faces and sounds and stares at me while doing them to the point where it's extremely awkward. I do have normal conversation with him (not too deep a relationship though), where he does talk normal. But unexpectedly, he'll start again talking to me as if I was a baby, and he stares at me in a way in which he expects me to giggle back like a toddler. If I make an annoyed face, he gets angry and thinks I don't love him, and says he loves to make jokes like that. I usually get really awkward around him when he does that and feel annoyed and suffocated. I try to make myself feel better by thinking at least he's not abusive or mean, usually gives me what I want (although he did used to have a bit of a temper, but never got violent). Although it's a relief to think that, I still can't help shake off those awkward annoyed feelings. How would you feel in this situation?

Rank these schools in terms of 1) difficulty to get into and 2) most prestigious 3) best social life?

A positive question! Also an issue that has been probed into for the last 168 years by many people. Some savvy people might even declare one ought to implement carefulness when asking a question similar to this.

What to do about a friend who's into you when you're waiting on someone else?

Its a very hard decision, i can tell. First you need to ask yourself this question: Who do you really prefer? You seem to not like the insecure-ness of the long distanced guy or the other one who seems to be forcing you into a relationship your not sure of yet. Maybe you should stay single for a bit to really learn about both of these people and to fully understand them.

Thinking about moving to Nashville in the future?

I currently live in Fl and once I get my Bachelors degree I want to go to Vanderbilt in Nashville. I just want to know what is Nashville like? Is it expensive because of the tourism? I'm a huge fan of country music and I was born and raised in the south so I'm sure I'll love it there I just want to know what to expect if I lived there? Thanks :)

Do you think that this plan could quite possibly work?

Now if you are starting to read this, and you are already planning to tell me about how this is immoral and that it will ruin my karma then i want you to go back to what you are doing before. because i already know that this is not a good thing to do and i know that it could give me terrible karma. So for all of you realistic people out there, here it is. So there is this kid that i am kind of friends with at school. More along the lines of that i hate him. he is the biggest jock at school and thinks that he can say anything, do anything, and screw anyone that he wants. Entitlement is earned in this world. And he does not come from the lineage or background that deserves this kind of entitlement. So while i do not like him, he thinks that we are friends because i come from a background where if you think that someone is ridiculous you just nod your head and smile. he continues to converse with me at school even though i basically ignore him. But it is nice to have him on my side because he is really worked out, while i could defend myself from people only by threatening them with getting their dad fired or throwing Gucci loafers at them. So throughout high school his presence in school has become nice even though nobody at my school would dare step up to me because my father basically pays all of their father's paychecks. So because it is senior year we are all applying to our schools of choice. Mostly everybody is applying to Vanderbilt, Rhodes, and other schools of that caliber. Well because of my hard work, family connections, and my family's recent donation to the new library fund of Yale, i was accepted there. yes, i said YALE! Great right? Well then this jock kid happens to steal my thunder and not only gets accepted to Princeton for football but also gets onto the All American Football team... not cool. Nobody steals a Potts family's thunder. WE have been around for generations ruling and conquering in the areas that we choose. So i am not about to let some low rent, juiced up, tanning, jock take my spot in the Ivy circuit. HE HAS NOT EVEN EARNED IT. He has only gotten into Princeton because of athletics. That is appalling. So therefore i will not let it happen. Even though he does not even go to a country club or any other social establishment taking him down will be a lot harder. So, what he has so foolishly told me in Physics class last week is that "If I get arrested from now until September, i cannot go to Princeton." He is so stupid. Why does he think that i do not have hidden agendas. He should know that if you are intruding into my life that you will not pay for it? I mean i was the only one going to an Ivy. But now i am one of two. that is not how my life was planned out to be. I am the best. So i have schemed to plant drugs into his locker. Simple and easy because my locker is situated right next to his. It is not like it will ruin his life because he will easily be accepted and also be able to walk onto the football team of any state school of his choice. He is blue collar and that is where he shall stay if i have anything to do with it. So do you think that me planting the drugs and then tipping off the school administration to trigger a drug search of the school over spring break could work? Once again do not give me a lesson on morals. i want your true opinion on this legitimacy. Of course i will be able to slip the drugs into the locker without anyone seeing because i know a sure way that will take too long to explain, so people seeing me is not a problem. Also with him being caught with drugs he will be arrested, but let off with only probation. i know this because half of my friends have been busted with coke and it is no big deal. and plus if anything worse were to happen i honestly would not care.

The Vanderbilt Curb Leadership Scholarship prerequisites say that the scholarship is awarded to only those in?

I used this site to search and compare different scholarships and got money to pay my college - careers.scienceontheweb.net

Can people remember the what happened before they were alive?

Yes i believe some can whether it is in dreams, memories or through hypnosis. I remember watching this documentaries of a small town where all these people could remember each other from past lives. I also believe that our most intense fear that we have is how we died in our past lives.

Depression that never seems to end.?

I don't know what to do with myself anymore. I am not exaggerating when I say that I feel sad almost every hour of everyday. I have lost all my inspiration. It makes me sad because I use to know myself so well, but now I am not even sure who I really am anymore. I feel lost, and constantly my mind is running thoughts and memories, It is like I cant control it anymore. Its overwhelming and controls my everyday life. My sleeping schedule is horrible..it changes, but not frequently. Because of my depression, I feel as if I can't sleep...I stay awake until what seriously feels as if I am passing out. It is very painful for me since my sciatic nerve is messed up, so it tends to act up more at night, as well as my restless leg syndrome and asthma. I work full time so it makes working a drag. The past 3 months/recently I believe I cry about 4 times a week waking up, at work and before bed. I thought that it might be from my ovarian cyst but I have had them for almost 6 years and have never dealt with depression as bad as this. Since I was a child, I have dealt with depression, but have never been diagnosed due to money issues. I do believe that the depression in my past had a lot to do with the environment I grew up in and the constant everyday battles I faced with dealing with my parents who where drug users, argued everyday and neglected me at least until the age of 13 when my parents made more money(my happiness was "bought") I also used to cut myself. I fought myself so many times to try and ignore the thoughts. When I tell my parents about this, they don't seem to take me seriously. My mother puts her friends before me, and my father is extremely obsessed with my mothers absences and how it effects his life, to the point to where my problems don't exist at all. I am 19 years old...I still live in this house and giving money to my parents is hard to do, especially trying to improve and take care of myself as well. Everyday I suffer because of my emotions. I feel so miserable and almost so much so to a point of insanity. I am scared because I started to notice that I talk to myself out loud and really don't notice it until I kinda catch myself I guess. Throughout the day I feel the urge to cry several times, but mostly I end up reaching a point of what feels like major anxiety. I can feel my chest tighten, and this horrible butterfly in my stomach sensation...but not the good kind. I get really dizzy and I get migraines at least a couple times a day. I am also very insecure because of all of this. When someone looks at me on the street I tend to think they are looking at me because there is something wrong about my appearance, not that they are "checking me out." And last year, two people I got very close too betrayed me and hurt me so badly that it has now caused me some serious social anxiety outside of work. I shake a lot and it almost takes anything negative to set me off emotionally... I can't let things go....when I am upset I stay that way over the issue for a very long time...to the point of constantly beating myself up mentally...of how stupid I am or pathetic. And when I cry, sometimes I cant stop... and at times causes me to have panic attacks. I cant be around people to long other wise I feel suffocated...like I need to be alone. The thoughts in my head wont shut up....and I cant handle it...I get to high levels of stress over this, to where I throw almost a child-like tantrum, but only in private. And even when I experience laughter and smile I still feel sadness within me...its like it is eating at my insides. It makes me feel sick and want to throw up. Also I do believe this is caused, not only from home life and personal, self loafing issues, but from my complicated love life. I met someone who I am now still involved with on and off romantically about 4 years ago. He lives about 8 hours from me though. He changed my life for the better at first but over time became verbally abusive. He tells me I am pathetic and stupid and a *****, etc. when he gets mad at me and tells me how everything is my fault, but then other times he is the sweetest guy in the world and very loving. I tried moving on once, went on a date with a friend...we ended up kissing once. I told him about it recently and he called me a cheater and that I should feel ashamed (even though we are not together now and weren't when I went on that date). Ever since I have felt incredibly guilty and more depressed then before. I think about ending it all sometimes. I feel worthless. And it makes me incredibly tense..I can't even clean my room...to the point of getting carpet beetles (I look like a hoarder)...I panic when people go in my room because my room is like a window to my soul, metaphorically. I don't like people seeing my pain. I have so much potential to be someone in this world...but I always feel depressed..like it will never end. Please, what should I do? Help me?

Why are people saying that Djokovic has 'sealed' the #1 ATP ranking?

With his win over Tsonga today, I heard the announcer say that he's sealed his #1 ATP ranking. While I understand that he was only 70 points behind Nadal, Nadal hasn't played against Murray. If Nadal wins, won't he remain #1 (because he gets the same number of points as Djokovic)?

What does it mean when a friend tells you this?

My friend and I were talkin about applying for colleges and she said. "Please go to Vanderbilt I'd be so lonely if you didn't go" she's been flirting a lot lately but she has a boyfriend. She knows I lik her though. Whenever I'd ask her if she liked me she'd just smile and change the subject. What does she mean by saying this

My boyfriend wants to be with me "All the time"...?

I have this issue with my boyfriend. He wants to be with me all the time. We even work in the same place so that makes it so tough for me that i feel suffocated most of the times. We are together at work almost 9 hrs a day and then he insists that we go gym together post that, making that almost 10 to 12 hrs a day together(including driving around). And he does not spare weekends either. He brings up sumthing or the other and insists on meeting during weekends too. He includes me in his work travel too even if it does not makes sense for me to be there. Apart from that he calls me about 5 times a day!! I understand he loves me a lot and i love him too, but this has been too much of him and am not able to handle it. I just tried telling him in a nice way without wanting to hurt his feelings, but I don think he's taken it too well. Now he is behaving too weird and purposely distant. How do i make him understand that I love him a lot but still i need my space, and that I will not run away if he stops clinging on to me the way he does now. Please help.

My crush made me feel horrible?

Yesterday in Social Studies class, my friend Mike was trying to taze me as a joke (he has a girlfriend.) I wasn't trying to flirt with him. Later on, Nick came up to me in front of his friend and goes, "Olivia why do you try? You show off in front of all of the guys it's like get out of the f*cking closet!". With a serious face. I just smirked, but then I stayed away from all the guys because I was so upset. Then, Nick was walking down the hallway with his friend and out loud said, "Hey you!" and noticed he was talking to me and said "I'm gonna sit on you with my butt cheeks and have you suffocate" and I just laughed. Then he said, "Ugh I hate this substitute" for a class we had. Then randomly he said, "Sooo...you and Mike?" I wanna tell Nick how I feel, but I feel like I blew it because I think he's mad at me. I was going to text him how I feel today, but what if he doesn't reply? What do I do?

What are my chances of getting into the following Universities?

To be honest, it is highly unlikely that you'll get into any of these schools, with the exception of Boston University. All of the other schools are BIG reaches for you. With all due respect, you really ought to refine your college list, or you may be without a place to go in the Fall, barring a huge increase in SAT scores or something of that nature. Maybe apply to your state university?

Whats wrong with my car?

Sounds like it might have a possible vacuum hose leak. Check your vacuum hoses by spraying something like wd-40 around areas where your vacuum lines are and listen for a slight increase in RPMs. If you find where the leak is, then you can fix your issue.

Do demons make people do things like this?

No. This man was cleary wicked and evil and did not need demons for his behaviour. I hope this low life gets the maximum sentence and he suffers for the rest of his miserable life. The girl's life has been horribly ruined by this monster.

Vienamese honorifics?

Can anyone list as many vietnamese honorifics as they know with thier uses? Like for ex. Chi (pronounced chee) - Older Sister : Used when talking to older females that are generally closer to you and not that much of a rank difference. Ex. Calling an older cousin "chi". (Sorry that might not be really correct since I havent spoken Vietnamese for a while, which is why I want to relearn it.) Thanks~

What is COLLEGE goin to be like? HELP Pleaz....?

mmmmmmmmmmm i feel like you burned your brain in HS i mean not burned but overburned your brain. you have to take it easier, but i think i have bad news for you, college is gonna be a pain in the *** but you're intelligent so may be no that much but still it's gonna be hard, dmm! i feel that i would like to help you more but that's the true, in fact i think that yuo should've done the opposite, you should've dedicate more to your college years than in HS. but i think a lot of people say the same thing that you know obiously college is harder than HS, but not always, personately that wastn my case, when i was in HS i was pretty much the whole day inside four walls, it was horrible, i honestly im extremly happy i got out of HS beacuse it feels like if you would've been in prision. and a lot of people would say the oppposite,, they might say that the hate college and want to go back to HS but i really don't, i just of course would like to have the friends and the moments i had in HS i mean that's unforgettable, the moments and the memories i have of course i would like to come back to those times but looking from the side of how HS was about the schedule and omg so many teachers and being there every ficking day it's unbelievable, so as you're reading this i think you kindda get the idea of how college is, as you mey notice, in college you're not in school the whole day so you will have time free but at the same time no very free cus of the homeworks and all that but any ways you can actually get a job and just take part time in college you can take two classes while you work, and you are gonna be good, is not that you wont have time, as long as you take a part time job as well, cuse if you start getting too much hours of work believeme you wont make it(proper experience) so it is good for you cus you get your own money, and i dont know, thatll be a good idea if you wanna have your own money to spend on hey i bet you have things you would like to buy, so im going off topic haha but if you are that kind of person that you feel like wasting time working then go full time in college and you will be working on the job you want cus let me tell you that you might not like the minimum jobs there are out there, and without college those are the jobs you are gonna get but it;s still a good money for you around 450 bucks for you per mounth, that also depends on the state you live in, but after all life is gonna give you an award for the work you've been doing. i hope you get a bf in college.

Do you think Ray Lewis is overrated currently?

He is one of the greatest linebackers to ever play in the NFL, but NFL players have him ranked as a top 10 player in the NFL currently. I definitely don't think he should be even close to that ranking, since he's pretty old now.

Anyone want a Black Ops 15th Prestige account?

Afraid of crowds? Help would be greatly appreciated :)?

This is a serious issue; a mix of claustrophobia (fear of small spaces) and agoraphobia (fear of people and crowds). If I were you, I would talk to a psychologist about this. It may not seem that big right now but some people become so unsocial and fearful that they commit suicide.

Final Prediction: who will be victorious between Wladimir Klitschko and David Haye?

Wladimir Klitschko will quit in his stool! He won't be able to handle Haye's speed and power. Haye won't be there when Klitschko throws his jabs because Haye will be moving around and he will counter Klitscho's jabs!

A question about a possible way someone can die?

Is it really possible, that if you have quick-drying cement poured on you and it covers you completely and it dries instantly that you can suffocate and die from it?

Rank these schools in terms of 1) difficulty to get into and 2) most prestigious. 3) best social life?

Harvard is the most prestigious, and the most difficult to get into, but has the worst social life. Everyone there is an elitist, and stives to be better than you. Competition is out of control, and unless your Jesus Christ, most people will never know your name. At Harvard, you are a number. Northwestern is the easiest to get into of that list, but is by no means a lesser school. Any college is what you make of it. Prestige is an elitest's mentality, and will get you no further than any other school. I go to Nichols College (ever heard of it?) and will be interning at Citibank this summer. There are many Harvard folks who do not have this oppurtunity.

Can sleeping with your baby make them well rounded?

All my life I've heard it's very dangerous and not a smart idea to sleep with your babies. Because 1 SIDS and you could roll over on the baby and suffocate them, and also when they get older it's harder to get them to sleep in their own room they will always wanna sleep with mommy and daddy. But my friend keeps telling me it makes them well rounded and better communicators in relationships... is that true?

Is Vanderbilt the only school in the SEC who hasn't been put on probation?

Yes they have. Believe it wasn't football thought. There aren't too many teams in any conference that have not been put on probation in one sport or another. It's not just the SEC. There are a lot of teams that have deserved it but haven't been caught yet. Their time will come believe me. RT

Do you like this song i written?

I like this piece because its a clear story line(personally, Im not into that kind of music, i like songs were it isnt that clear and u picture and imagne everything) and it sounds like a cool song thats either rap or in the hip hop genre. I dont know if you're looking for this song to sound like that. But in my head when I try to sing this it sounds like it. Its pretty good because it dosent repeat itself alot. So its unique.

Can you name this movie?

I saw this movie a long time ago, it was about a mom and her little girl. And the little girl was kidnapped by demons. A man and a women. And the tell her that there her parents. And tell her to do terrible things like burn an old man, and when they take her away from her mom, there at a train station. And the mother sees demons flying around. And when she goes to check on her friend sitting down, the friends head falls off and sounds hallow. Another part is when the mother tries to get her child back, the man suffocates her and puts her in a car driving on the wrong side. And she drives it were its gonna fall off a brige, but a man saves her. I think she reunites with her daughter. And the girl looked about 10 with blonde or maybe light brown hair. Sounds familiar to anyone?

At 57 years, how can I go on?

I was in a 23 year abusive marriage to an alcoholic. Soon after that, I fell deeply in love with an also divorced man who has so much family issues and baggage that he cannot give me the attention I crave. I feel suffocated and alone and I don't know where to turn. My friends are all married, I am literally the only single one of everyone I know. To make it worse, a co-worker made the comment that people who are married are better people than those who are not. I feel so out of place and I don't know how to fix things. I have attempted online dating but those men also have many issues or only want a bed partner. I feel like this part of my life has come to an end.

Need help answering a couple questions about the Banking Crisis/Civil War. Please help me. 10 points for answe?

From the end of the Civil War to 1900 industrialization radically changed the United States. How did the industrialists like Cornelius Vanderbilt and Gustavus Swift help create that change, for good or for ill, and how did these changes affect the workers' lives.? How did the workers' fight back and how did the farmers fight back with the Populist party.?

Can I raise my 2.4 GPA up higher in two years? PLEASE ANSWER.?

Okay. It's summer time obviously, and I'm going into my Junior year. My GPA is roughly around 2.4, maybe higher. I haven't seen it since school let out, but I know it's no lower than a 2.4. I want to go to Vanderbilt, and you need about a 3.7 to get in I think. Is there any way I can raise my GPA that high or close in two years? It's not that I'm stupid or won't do the work. I didn't do anything Sophomore year because I was depressed blah blah long story. When I do work, which I plan to because I am no longer depsressed, I get good grades. Please help me(: Thanks(:

I suffer with depression and my parents know but...?

if you are on medications and you're still suffering from depression your medicines are not working. you need to call your doctor and let him/her know this so that you dosages can be changed or your medicines can be changed. as for as your mother she may just be feeling guilty because she knows that she passed the gene for depression to you. you need to talk to your therapist about this also. let him/her know about your mothers responses to you so that they can try to help you out. a family conference might be in order. i know that my psychologist that i see will have a talk with my husband periodically (my son refuses to even meet him much less meet with him ) to talk about what is going on with me. that helps keep my husband supportive of my illnesses which include severe depression.

Adventure Quest Worlds 7/1 Update misunderstanding.?

I saw that in the design notes that they were going to make it harder to get Paladin Class and DoomKnight Class. However, they mentioned the Adventure Coin Class necromancer and the two ways to get them. They said that they would be providing that same thing to the two member classes. They said that the classes would be member, however, are they talking about Necromancer Class also? I mean i am almost Reputation Rank 10 but I would like to know how much time to exert before the new update?

Sleeping: when I'm about to wake up, I can't move any part of my body...?

its like this for everybody but it doesn't get to the point where you cannot roll yourself over and almost suffocate! you should see a doctor about this problem

Girls, how pathetic am I?

Your not a loser mate your just 17.. Most 17's are feeling it at that age.. Just work on things your good at and the rest will fall into place..

Afraid of crowds how should I get over this?

U are feeling acute insecurity, fear of failure, depression, frustration and no way to decide for ur future. Just dreaming of the given circumstances. Try to be busy in crowds is only way out

How can Vladimir Klitschko be on the p4p list ,not to mention #5?

"What if" does not exist, the fact is that he is almost 6 foot 7 and he is very dominant in his division. I do he deserves that spot, Marquez should not even be in that list. I really do not know if he can beat andre ward or b-hop.

Which college could I get into with my low GPA?

I feel like politely slapping you and telling you job well done through high school. Nice resume you have there! Don't be nervous because of a 3.9, apply wherever you want. a 3.9 will not bar you from ivy caliber schools despite popular belief. I myself had a 3.7 out of high school and got accepted to two ivy league caliber schools (duke and cornell). Again, job well done!

I couldn't breathe in my dream. what does this dream mean?

So I took a nap then in my dream I was in the same state that I was napping. All of a sudden in my dream I felt like someone kept touching me in my sleep or poking me to where I woke up(still dreaming) and all of a sudden I coudn't breathe. It felt like someone was trying to suffocate me. I couldn't move at all. Eventually I broke loose and I got up. I ran outside my house and I saw bags packed. I felt like something didn't want me in the house. Anyway, I heard a small whisteling sound then I finally woke up. It was such a nightmare. I'm so confused. What does this dream mean?

Wozniacki how is she able to remain number 1?

yeah i agree with you. kvitova is the nearest contender for a number one spot and sharapova is looking good as well.

How's the Nashville music scene and is it all country?

Nashville is nicknamed the "Music City", but what I'm wondering is if Nashville is predominantly all country, or is there other stuff too like jazz and stuff? I'm not a huge fan of country music, and since I'm thinking of applying to Vanderbilt next year, I have to make sure the music they play is not all country, because I will not enjoy myself as much if it is. The music I like is jazz, some rock, hip hop, and r&b, does Nashville have any of this in its music scene, or is it all country like I assume?

Best first date ideas?

Ok, so I'm young and my parents are really protective and me and my boyfriend wanna go out on a date soon. I can't really think of anything we could do. movies are out and i want something we can do without my parents suffocating us. We are really touchy feely like we like to hold hands and he likes to put his arms around me and I dont want us to have to be different jsut cause were with my parents. so any help is great

Is it better to spend my college fund on undergrad, or on graduate school?

I'm currently choosing between Dartmouth, Vanderbilt, and University of Florida for undergrad. I would really like to save myself and my parents a lot of money (as I've gotten a full scholarship to UF, but no aid elsewhere). Of course, Dartmouth and Vanderbilt are more "prestigious" schools, and I've heard that the name of your undergraduate school really helps with getting into a good graduate school. Yet, I feel that I would rather do well and really stand out at a school like UF rather than be an average student in a more renowned school. I loved UF's campus and its science and music programs and feel like I would be very happy going there. However, I've also been told that going to a university with a full scholarship can be a bad idea; that if I save up money for graduate school, it would be extremely difficult for me to get any financial aid such as work-study, etc. because I technically wouldn't be in any dire need of money. I've been told that even though I would become financially independent upon finishing undergrad and have very little income, that all my financial assets, such as the unspent savings from my college fund, would be analyzed when applying for aid and thus prevent me from getting grants, scholarships, etc. in grad school. But if I did well in school, would there be plenty of merit scholarships? Plus, I would really like to avoid having to pay off loans if I could. Any thoughts about any of this? I'm just confused from all the different opinions I've been getting about what to do with my money. I thought that saving money for undergraduate would be extremely helpful, but now I'm not sure... If you know people who have been through graduate school and know what it's like financially speaking, or just any advice at all would be helpful. I just want to get a wider perspective on this. Thank you!

Hi, I am currently going to be a sophomore next fall. I am very interested in attending Vanderbilt for college?

I know the SATs are a very important factor in college admissions. I interested in starting to prepare for them as early as possible. I was hoping there was a practice book that had daily lessons. I do not want to overwork myself. So is there a book that has 1 lesson per day? THANKS(:

Why not go to college first?

I realize that I can do it after, or both at the same time. But going to college first will make you an officer and I'm assuming the money i spend will be somehow given back to me after my service on top of the extra pay. The reason I ask is because most people do military first and it takes forever for them to rank up. For example 7 years to make Sargent in a common case. But then again how would the military be like if everybody went to college first. Would we have a military full of officers? Why not go to college first?

What are my chances of getting into Wake Forest University, Emory University, and Vanderbilt University?

You have a great background, and IB will really help you, but I would recommend retaking the SAT. That is a HUGE determininng factor of getting admitted (esp. at Emory and Wake). If you can boost that up I would say you have a fantastic shot of getting in.

Why would he say this about me?

Yesterday in Social Studies class, my friend Mike was trying to taze me as a joke (he has a girlfriend.) Also, my other guy friend named Dan lifted his shirt up and tried to put his shirt (with him still in it) and put it over my head. I just told him to stop and wasn't trying to flirt with them. Later on, Nick came up to me in front of his friend and goes, "Olivia why do you try? You show off in front of all of the guys it's like get out of the f*cking closet!". With a serious face. I just smirked, but then I stayed away from all the guys because I was so upset. Then, Nick was walking down the hallway with his friend and out loud said, "Hey you!" and noticed he was talking to me and said "I'm gonna sit on you with my butt cheeks and have you suffocate" and I just laughed. Then he said, "Ugh I hate this substitute" for a class we had. Then randomly he said, "Sooo...you and Mike?" I wanna tell Nick how I feel, but I feel like I blew it because I think he's mad at me. I was going to text him how I feel today, but what if he doesn't reply? What do I do?

Does Vanderbilt have a good law program?

US News ranks Vanderbilt 17th in the country for law. In the USA law is studied in graduate school.

Having problems with GF, called her my "EX" and now she is distant?

How can I get my mom to stop treating me like a child?

I am 18 years old now, but my mother keeps treating me like a 14 year old. She acts like I am irresponsible and can't do anything on my own. She gives me a bedtime, I'm not allowed on my own computer for a certain amount of time, and she gets mad at me for coming home at 11 after hanging out with friends when she herself gave me permission to be out that late. I'm always responsible, I obey everything she says, and I always let her where know where I am at all times. Despite all this, she still acts like I'm a problem child who never obeys her and isn't old enough to make his own decisions. I would love to move to get away from it all, but I'm not yet in a position where I can even afford it. I also have college tuition to worry about.I've tried reasoning with her, but she won't listen. She ignores everything I say. How can I convince her that I'm not a child and that she should stop suffocating me?

What rank is a 2.3 gpa going into my junior year of high school? Good? Bad? Average? Can I bring it up in time?

My unweight gpa freshman year was about 2.35, and 2.3 my sophmore year. I did volleyball and cheerleading, I've done about 24 hours of community service and I have a 20 on my last ACT. I'm going into my Junior year in high school. If I get all A's the next two years and improve my ACT, will I be in good standing for scholarships? I need a scholarship. Help please?

Can a u.s soldier join the British army?

Of coarse he would and because his American he'd have to get a green card there which he can obtain be marrying you are go threw the long process of becoming a citizen there if he was part of a commonwealth country like Canada he could just move there and join up and get a free citizen ship but his American and there is now way in hell he can transfer to there armed forces NO WAY IN HELL it's immposibke

Why did he say this to me?

I am a guy and I hate it when I see the girl I love talking or doing something with other boys. I think all boys are same. They get jealous very easily.

What's the best bargain hotel/motel to stay in while visiting Vanderbilt in Nashville?

I'm planning a visit to Vanderbilt University. I've never been before and need to save money. What's the best bargain hotel/motel nearby? (preferably walking distance to campus)

High school life..failing?

Perhaps you want to be more open to people. By this I mean not sticking to a particular group of people but speaking to almost everyone casually ignoring the way you feel about them and you will find that someone will automatically standout. That someone will one way or the other always want to talk to you and once you know him/her better you will find that close friend.

What are some bible verses I can start reading to help me with depression/self mutilation?

I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. My help cometh from the LORD, which made heaven and earth. He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber. Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep. The LORD is thy keeper: the LORD is thy shade upon thy right hand. The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night. The LORD shall preserve thee from all evil: he shall preserve thy soul. The LORD shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore.

Getting back together for the kids- Military?

I have an incredible friend who is torn right now. He left his 12 year marriage 5 years ago to be with another woman. (Not me, I am just his friend) but they broke up last year. He stayed very close with his 3 daughters aged now 8-13, and friendly now with his ex wife. (they never divorced due to military benefits) the issue is now, he is seriously considering reconciling with his ex wife, living together as a family for the sake of the girls- but not 'together' (he said that part of the marriage is dead and buried.) I want him to seek therapy- as does he, but due to his very senior ranking in the military it is not possible for him to seek therapy without it potentially tarnishing his record. He is suffering with doubt and confusion as he adores his daughters, and is concerned that him not living with them will damage them in the future, as well as the fact they do not have a Dad in their day to day life. The Mum has not re partnered, and is obviously open to the idea of reconciling 'for the kids'. Obviously I do not know the nitty gritty, but he is really struggling, and I am hoping someone out there can help, as he needs it. Even another voice and opinion, as he has no one to discuss this with, and has little experience with divorce etc. I have plenty of opinions on the matter, growing up as a child of divorce, as well as being divorced and having a grown child. Again, I am not vested in this situation, from a romantic viewpoint, he is my friend, I just want him to be happy, and I do not think he can see straight regarding the matter, and my personal opinion is that he could do more damage going back, having the girls have him, seeing a loveless marriage and him possibly leaving again> Thoughts, much appreciated, from all viewpoints. FYI- the girls are being beautifully raised, provided for etc and are very well adjusted, and he sees them as much as humanly possible- between missions etc.

Your mother needs to move now. You need your solo life back in order. KEEP THE DOG! (If you need help with expenses, get a roommate.)

If a girl gets beaten as a consequence of an indecent act, whose fault is it?

If a girl tries to force her vulva over a man's mouth and nostrils and she's suffocating him with it, and he bites it and hurts her badly, whose fault is it? Should he get in trouble for assault?? I know it's cruel to physically harm someone, but in this case, she provoked it, right?

Pregnant, depress and suicidal ( second pregnancy).?

This is actually odd enough..normal! My eldest sister went through the same thing! Go see your doctor as soon as possible though! With everything seeming to stress you out, it could cause a miscarriage. I'm no doctor, but I highly recommend you go see yours! He/She could describe you with a safe anti-depressant (My sister had got these described) which will/should help! Other then that, get SOMEONE you feel comfortable enough with and talk to them..keep a diary &write some stuff that you are thankful for and things that make you happy! I hope within time and medication these feelings WILL go away! You're are growing a human in you after all..you should feel powerful! I really hope the best &congrats!

Great first date ideas?

Ok, so I'm young and my parents are really protective and me and my boyfriend wanna go out on a date soon. I can't really think of anything we could do. movies are out and i want something we can do without my parents suffocating us. We are really touchy feely like we like to hold hands and he likes to put his arms around me and I dont want us to have to be different just cause were with my parents. so any help is great!!! I don't hate that my parents are protective. I just want to be able to have fun and make my parents happy at the same time. Trust me I appreciate the fact that my parents care. I don't mind if my parents are with us, i want them to like him, I just want us to have fun and if we do something where my parents can still watch us but not be right on top of us that would be great. BTW perverts will get reported!!!!

What college is the best for pre-med?

I am actually going to miami of ohio next year and i just went to their presentation a couple weeks ago. There statistics for students getting into medical school are very impressive. The average rate of acceptance for miami students in pre-med is like 68% percent, which is way above average. And with a student who has a 3.4 or higher gpa and does average on the MCAT, they have like a 94% rate of acceptance. I would visit the miami website do get more information, but they are very well known for having teachers that really care about the students and that seems like the best choice for someone who wants to go to med school.

Is my boyfriend suffocating me or just being sweet?

My boyfriend is 18, I'm almost 16. because of our age I expect dating to be simple and easy, but lately it's been the opposite. We've been bickering a lot and seem to get annoyed with eachother easily, but we always make up. But when we do, he uses words like "forever" and "in love", which seem a bit heavy after only 3 months. Last night we were talking about why we have relationship problems, and he got sick. He literally puked, and afterwards blamed stress from his dad, job, college..and our relationship. That was a huge guilt bomb, and I felt like I had to make up with him then. Today he found out that his new job isn't what he thought it was; he thought he would be working with computers but it turns out it's a hard labor position in a factory packaging fiberglass. When I told him it would be a bad idea to take it, he said me and our relationship are his motivation for doing it. I feel pressured, guilty, and slightly suffocated now. I can't tell if I'm overanalyzing or if he's crossed the line. Opinions?

Baby with flat area on head?

So I took my 4 month old to the doctor for her regular check up and he noticed the right side of her head in the back is kind of flat. She prefers to sleep facing to the right and I never thought anything of it until now. He said I need to have her sleep looking to the left. When she falls asleep I try to turn her head but I notice when I wake up to check on her she is back in her same old position. I won't let her sleep on her tummy at night due to SIDS and I am afraid to prop her on her side with a blanket wedged behind her for fear she may pull it over her head or turn into it and suffocate. The doctor informed me that if it doesn't improve within a month he wants to have her fitted with a cranial helmet that she will have to wear 23 hours a day. I don't want to put her through that. So does anyone have any suggestions? Has anyone else dealt with this same thing in their child?

What do I do about my crush's hurtful words?

Lol am I joe because that sounds EXACTLY like me 5 yrs ago. Ok quick lesson we guys act like that because we like u and our signs arent giggling or playing with hair, we have jealousy and random bouts of extreme immaturity that from the outside seem like being an a$$. Maybe he is just an absolute ahole but my money is on im right and trust me in a few years he will grow up. Keep me posted

Whats a painless way to commit suicide?

I mean people hurt themselves cuttin themselves and drowning/suffocating yourself seems like youd be really panicy. Taking pills seems like first youd have a lot of bodily failures before you actually die. Whats a painless way to do it... Not old age or natural causes

Due to the high cost of college nowadays, should parents save up a college fund before they have a child?

I'm an only child. My parents had me in their mid-thirties and were married for 4 years before I was born. I'm about to go to college in the fall, and my parents have $80,000 saved up for me. I keep watching those TV specials about college kids who rank up hundreds of thousands of dollars of debt and I'm becoming a little bit worried about their futures and their children's futures (and my children's futures). Since college is becoming more and more expensive, should parents (who didn't have their child by accident) save up a good portion of money for a college fund before the child is born?

Cornelius Vanderbilt question?

I need a list of good and bad things that he did. I know he wasn't the best guy... But what did he do?

Should I sacrifice my happiness?

I am already miserable and have been for four years now. Right now I am at summer school and having a great time. I applied for transfer at this school and I am loving it...but my parents want me to remain at my previous school. I felt like I was suffocating there and it seems they won't take no for an answer.

CHANCE ME FOR THESE SCHOOLS?

What is you schools max GPA? If it is 4.0 then your GPA is pretty good. If it is 5.0 then that definitely needs to go up. The SAT score definitely needs to go up if you want to get into Duke. You have a lot of extracurricular activities and community service, which definitely helps. Take as many AP courses as you can, colleges love those and you get some credit for them as well. If you can raise your SAT then you can definitely get into at least half of your top five.

Comparing the University of WA and Vanderbilt?

Dude honestly USC sounds pretty good. Surgeons are always needed in Los Angeles. Every school you got into is freaking expensive so i mean you gotta suck it up you'll be in debt either way hahahah. You go where you want.

I'm really confused about all of this?

I dont think anyone but you can decide that. Do you still think its inside you, or that it affects you in any way? Thoughts, feelings, memories, or strong emotions of the past.. Or even being totally disconnected and desensitised from what happened.. are all signs that it may still be affecting you. This doesnt mean it is, im just saying they are some signs. Other than that.. if you ever do need to go counselling, you can only go when you feel like you need it. If it affects you or disrupts your life.. otherwise going to counselling at this moment and time may prove to be pointless due to the fact that youve pulled yourself away from it.. mentally and physically. You dont know whether its affecting you or not. Thats what i think anyways.. but on a personal note, amazing.. you are really a strong person, an inspiration for many, and i wish you all the best in your life. Take care, be well and be safe.

How difficult will it be to get into college?

I have a 3.5 GPA, but I'm taking rigorous classes in my school's International Baccalaureate program. I'm involved in two different sports (varsity level) and I am captain of one of them. I also play a musical instrument and have won a few trophies. Oh.. and I've taken up two internships. I am currently a junior and still have a about half a year to go before turning in all my college applications and I was wondering if my GPA would considerably hurt my chances of getting into a considerably prestigious college or university (by considerably prestigious, I am talking of schools such as Boston College, Vanderbilt, Northwestern, etc.).

College Basketball Top 25 in 2011-2012 what do you think?

Duke should honestly be behind Kentucky. Duke is bringing in Austin Rivers, Quinn Cook, and Michael Gbinije, and another Plumlee brother (which could be a curse). PLUS the deep shooters we have now. Curry and Rivers will not need a year; these players are already close friends. K will make them find their rhythm quickly. Playing as a unit is essential for him. Plus Duke still has, arguably, the best back court in the nation. Even with the loss of Irving, Duke has an amazing chance of making the elite eight.

Applying to Vanderbilt?

I am considering applying to Vanderbilt University, possibly the Blair School of Music. I am curious if certain aspects of the application play a more prominent role in being accepted than others. For example, do they put more emphasis on test scores/GPA, the essay, extracurriculars, etc?

Is my ACT score good enough?

I just got my ACT scores back yesterday. My cumulative score was 29. In English, I got a 33; Math, 25; Science, 24; and Reading, 33. Is this okay? And are these scores, assuming I have a 3.75 GPA and am involved in Beta Club and extracirricular student organizations, enough to possibly put me towards Vanderbilt or Butler (Indiana)? Thanks for your time! I'm just not sure where to find the requirements.

What are my chances on Stanford, UCLA, USC, Cal Berkeley, or Vanderbilt with what I have?

You have a really good shot at all those schools! But getting into Stanford is really unpredictable. You are definately qualified to apply but remember...NO ONE who applies to Stanford has guranteed acceptance. It is as good as (if not better) than most Ivy league schools. Anyway, I believe Stanford is more known for medicine than engineering (I may be wrong). Also, If you apply to private schools, it is better to take BOTH the SAT and the ACT. Lastly, just remember to not get lazy during your senior year. GOOD LUCK :D

What counts toward the actual gpa in which colleges look at?

Semester averages, I'm quite sure, although each school is differnet in its policy (some don't look at freshman grades, etc) Go on vanderbilt's website and check it out

Forensic Psychology Info?

Since psychology grad schools are very competitive, don't count on getting into any particular school. But you will need to find a program in forensic psychology to work in the field. Keep in mind grad school can be very expensive, and forensic psychologists start out making about 40k a year with a PhD. Talk to your professors about this decision.

Could I get into Upenn?

My hope is to get into the university of Pennsylvania. I want to be a nurse. I am a freshman, and right now I'm just looking at schools that I like. I have been to UPENN. I loved it. By the time I apply I hope to have- 4.0-3.8 GPA, 28-32 on the ACT, 300-400 HOURS of volunteer/charity work, to be in HOSA ( I am currently in it), and in the Spanish club. I currently have a 3.8 and I'm honestly not happy with it but I have 3 weeks left of school and the classe I got a B in is far behind me. My school doesn't offer AP since the no child left behind, the only one they have left is Algebra which I'm not good at and the only thing that class would do for me is drop my gpa- however next year I really plan to work hard so I might be able to get an A. I know that by the time I apply I can het at least one really good recommendation from my health science class- which I will be taking all classes offered for and even a college course of medical terminology next year! I will also participate in an actual nursing home and help the people who live there. Hopefully I can get the intern class my senior year at a clinic. Do you think with those I could get in, I hope to do a ED to help my chances. I don't want to be asking my counselor for her to tell me its too late to try my senior year. What could I do or add to help my chances. I could join the band however I don't know a instrument other than a few years of violin. If you've been to UPENN what's your advice, if given the second chance would you return? I am also looking at vanderbilt and Pittsburgh university for nursing.

Karate (Shityo-Ryu Itosu Kai) Orange Belt Requirements?

Hey everyone, I'm going for a ranking soon and I was injuired for a bit so I had no time to re-practice what I already learned. I need to know the names of the katas I need to advance to an Orange Belt so I can watch videos and re-teach myself them. Also, I know there is one thing where an attacker attacks, and you're supposed to block. I'm not sure what this is called, if anyone can help clarify. Thank you.

Which SEC team (if any) will win the National Championship this year?

This is a year that I think it will be hard for the SEC to win it all for the 6th straight year. I think Florida is still kind of rebuilding at this point, and won't be a real contender. Kentucky, Vanderbilt, Tennessee, Mississippi, and Ole Miss just are not that good. I don't think South Carolina can do it, because they have never been consistent under Spurrier. Auburn won't be that good again after losing Newton and Fairley. Georgia in my opinion is the only team from the east that has a chance. They should be very much improved from last year. Alabama wouldn't seem like they will be good enough this year, but with these great recruiting classes Saban gets, he just replaces All Americans with All Americans. LSU has a chance to do it, just because they always have a solid defense, but I don't think that they will do anything great until they get rid of Miles. Last is Arkansas who lost Mallett, but returned pretty much everyone else. And the new quarterback, Tyler Wilson, definitely showed last year at Auburn that he can be a good quarterback. And with running back Knile Davis, who didn't become the main running back until 6 games into the season. In the last 7 games alone he ran for over 1,167 yards, and averaged 166.7 ypg.

Can hypothyroidism cause you to suffocate?

Well it is swelling of the thyroid do to the lack of thyroid hormone, mine is not nearly SEVERE, but my thyroid does seem to be swelled so much it is hard to breath. I know if it was to swell up so big it would be hard to breath.

Baby oil gets rid of mites on rats?

yeah wash the baby oil out, if he continous scratching like crazy and the scabs don't heal then they mites are still there. i guess continue this method until his skin heals and he isnt scratching too much. good luck

If we're bad at soccer, then why do we qualify for every single World Cup?

We just beat Panama 1-0 and finished runner's up and that was already a disappointment. But we always qualify for World Cups. Holland missed out on World Cups before. Russia misses out all the time. Uruguay missed out in 2006. Even England missed out in 1994 here. But we always qualify. Last time I checked we were better than teams like Guatemala and Jamaica. So we dominate our group, unlike those teams that seem to struggle. And not to forget, our FIFA ranking gets better every single time we qualify for the World Cup. We've been in the top 10 several times now.

Can a u.s soldier join the British army?

Of coarse he would and because his American he'd have to get a green card there which he can obtain be marrying you are go threw the long process of becoming a citizen there if he was part of a commonwealth country like Canada he could just move there and join up and get a free citizen ship but his American and there is now way in hell he can transfer to there armed forces NO WAY IN HELL it's immposibke

Playing Morrowind again, guild ranking issue?

I've gone back to morrowind cuz its more fun than oblivion. So I've been zipping right through the mages guild quests and they won't let me advance above magician. I'm level 30 something and all my skills meet the rank requirements, and all quests until this point are finished. Why won't they let me advance

Anyone surprised the "buisness friendly" southern states have higher rates of cancer?

People who are out in the sun more get skin cancer more. The north is so cold people cover themselves more. There is also a higher rate of cancer in minorities-particularly blacks. You may not like to admit it and it may be politically incorrect to say but many many of your complaints about the south are merely complaints about blacks. Mississippi for instance is more than a third black. Other southern states are not far behind. Up north they are around 5% or so, averaging the nation to around 12% overall. I'd ask that you think of that when you insult the demographics of the south but to do so you would have to be sensitive to your bigoted logic and that is not going to happen.

Is this right?, or should I tell the truth?

ok so i was cleaning the house and i accidently upset the bird cage and killed the bird that belonged to my little brother, in a moment of panic, i hid the dead bird in our old VCR, i figured it would be ok since no body really uses it, or so i thought, then my brother comes home with a video he rented, opens the vcr and well you can guess what happened. My family assumes that the bird escaped and got trapped in the VCR and suffocated. my brother is very upset and i can't look him in the eye. So am i off the hook or should i tell the truth?

Is my uncle considered "successful"?

As long as he spends/invests his money wisely, then it sounds like he is financially successful. However, that doesn't mean that he is successful in other areas such as family, friendship, morals, ethics, etc. My point is that money alone does not make a man.

Which is the ultimate hipster band?

I would have to say other because arcade fire is so big right now that hipsters don't even like them. Hipsters like what no one else likes because that's what makes them hipsters. Therefore (other) would be some unknown band that just is starting out.

What Is The name of This Book?

The book is about an african-american family husband and wife who do not get along and had cases of domestic violence. The husband cheated on his wife and is tired of his wife nagging him. She threatens to take the kids and he freaks. They drive to a park and begin arguing he grabs her by thethroat and suffocates her to death. Scared he carries her body to the trunk and drives off, looking for a place to bury her. I beilived the name of this book was called 'Over My Dead Body' or 'Over Her Dead Body' but i can't seem to find it anywhere. I heard it about about 3 years ago and haven't seen it since. I think it has both an african-american man and woman on the front cover standing in front of a car and park but I'm not sure. Please if you see anything like it or similar to it let me know. I believe its by an african-american writer as well. Thank-you in advance!

Should I email the admissions office of colleges I want to get into about application requirements?

No, first you should check their websites and see if your questions are answered there. Look under "admissions" -- it should tell you which courses are recommended or required and whether they require standardized test scores and which exams they prefer. Then look up the profile of their most recent freshman class -- it should tell you the racial/ethnic makeup of the class, their average SAT scores, and other relevant information. If you still have additional questions, then you can email the admissions office. Keep in mind that it takes more than just grades to get into these schools -- they'll want to see leadership in your extracurriculars, too.

How does the tennis ranking system work?

I don't follow tennis much but my mom does. So on ESPN tonight, it said that Djokovic would be the new #1 and Nadal would go down. I asked her about if Nadal beats Djokovic, shouldn't he be ranked higher? She couldn't explain it because she doesn't know how the system works. She also explained how Serena Williams just barely lost her #1 ranking despite being injured for a long time. I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction, so I have some general idea. It just doesn't make sense to me that Serena Williams isn't playing for so long, yet retains a high ranking.

Question regarding ties in whist (or bridge for that matter)?

In a game of whist, or bridge probably, as they are so similar, when, in the middle of play, there are no trump suite cards played during a trick, and two different suites with the same rank are played by different teams, who wins the trick? For example, say that clubs is trump. The winner of the last hand plays a queen of diamonds. The other two players play a five of spades and a six of diamonds respectively, as they do not have any diamonds. I decide to play a queen of spades, as I too do not have diamonds. Who would win the trick? Thank you.

My bestfriends boyfriend says he likes me :S?

I don't know what to do, I only see him as a friend and that's all I ever have been to him, I would never do anything like that to my bestfriend or anything. But last night he says he likes me in that way. I dont know what to do, he says he still loves my bestfriend. But I just don't know what to do or say to him. It feels like I'm being suffocated by boys I don't like, I'm to friendly and find it hard to turn someone down or say no, I don't lead them on I just become distant hoping they get the picture. Can someone please help me learn how to be a more stronger person when it comes to these things?

Nothing, ranking in tennis is so stupid!!!?

Rankings in tennis is so stupid!!!!..really..they are. It should not be based on what somebody did in the past or defending titles. In any other sport if you are the champion and if you defend your title you are still no1 or champion. For me been no 1 or 2 in Tennis or Collegue football is the same crap....in these sports rankings are not validated...so hope the peopel that set up ranking in Tennis learn....something value from this. That's why we see in champion chip games that the # 8 is playing againts # .... 9 for instance..which tranlate in: Rankings in sport like this (Tennis) means:....NOTHING. now, do not take me wrong..Nadal, Feder and Kjocovish..are very good players, and any of those can be # 1..but if the CHAMPION (Nadal) defeats the # 2 in the World..then is so NATURAL to say that NADAL will remain the NO 1....

Vanderbilt admissions?!?!?

Hi, I live in southern california, and am awaiting my admission decision from Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tennessee, which were mailed out wednesday. My mail has come already for Friday the 25th and still nothing. Should I be worried? I heard, USC for example, sent their acceptances priority from USPS so those who were admitted would get their letters sooner. Does this delay mean I have a higher chance of being denied admission??? Please help!!!

Why not go to college first?

I realize that I can do it after, or both at the same time. But going to college first will make you an officer and I'm assuming the money i spend will be somehow given back to me after my service on top of the extra pay. The reason I ask is because most people do military first and it takes forever for them to rank up. For example 7 years to make Sargent in a common case. But then again how would the military be like if everybody went to college first. Would we have a military full of officers? Why not go to college first?

What are my chances to get into one of these colleges?

not sure about the gpa or the sat, but you definitely need more extracurriculars to get into those schools, and you also need more challenging classes than what you have to get into those schools, especially NYU.

Need advice from current medical students or recent graduates!?

If that's what you want, go for it. And try to add some leadership or athletics to your impressive resume.

I have a bad smell in my nose and can taste it in my mouth.?

This smell feels like it is suffocating me. The smell smells like melting plastic and comes and goes. When it comes I often choke or cough. No one else around me smells what I smell. It is annoying and sometimes scary because I feel like I cannot breathe or cannot get away from the smell. I sometimes can taste it as well. It is horrible and would love to know what it is. Can anyone help?

What are the default permission nodes on a Minecraft Server?

I own a server, and Permissions Version 3. Things such as /kick and /ban are default non-plugin commands. I was wondering what their permission nodes are so I can remove certain ranks from using them. Thanks! (I hope I worded that right)

Chances of getting into these universities?

You won't start to know what universities you're eligible for really until your sophmore/junior year. By then you'd have more grades and would have taken the SAT or ACT. You have a 4.0 now but that could easily, and will, drop most likely by your junior year when you take all AP classes.

Where was Taylor Swift's "Story of Us" filmed?

It seems to me as if Vanderbilt University would be the obvious choice since it's so near to her penthouse, but does anyone know for sure?

My life feels like a Jerry Springer episode right now! helppppp?

Grow up--you didn't want her and you don't want your friend to have her either. Find a new friend and a new girlfriend, and don't allow yourself to get so tied up again--always keep some space for yourself.

Difficulty breathing, please help..?

Sorry about my previous vague answer. I don't know if it is at all possible for you, but considering it's your health that we're talking about here, you may need to seek a more arid climate. You have my email, so feel free to shoot me one. I'm pretty much an expert when it comes to living in 100% humidity at 108 degrees in the shade all day long and my allergies rip me a new one. I always wanted to move to Arizona for a more arid climate to get away from the pollens. It affects my breathing, too. Need to get where we can't cut the air with a knife. :P

Why whenever there is a raid on illegals working somewhere you have Americans lining up to do those same jobs?

I am a retired Police Officer on the Ca. Az. Mexico border. I am so tired of people thinking that all illegals from Mexico are farm workers and are picking fruit. Cesar Chavez's Farm Workers Union have not let illegals on farms for 30 or more years. Chavez did not like illegals and made no secret of it. You will find most illegals in restaurant, construction and auto body shops and companies like Swift. For the person above that believes only Conservatives want cheap labor, Swift is a far left liberal.

Am I unthankful? 10 points?

Basically, I am living a horrible life. I'm 16. I am NOT allowed to go ANYWHERE out without my parents. I have never hung out with any of my friends, I've never been to their houses, etc. I only go out with my mom like once every 3 weeks or so. I'm not even allowed to go outside and walk on my own. I've grown up with arguing parents and they're constantly fighting. I don't have ANYONE to talk to. I have friends but I'm not close with any. My dad's the root of the problem and plus, we don't really have a real relationship. I don't have cable or anything at home and I'm becoming depressed. I feel like I am stripped of life and I feel so suffocated and I can feel my head going numb. I tried to talk to my mom and she told me I'm being unthankful. I can't go to anyone for solace. My question is, am I really unthankful? Do I not possess the right to live life? I have never drank, smoked, had a boyfriend, had sex, etc. Aren't my parents being a bunch of unreasonable, imbecellic jerks?

What section do you get a lot of Thumbs up in for a best answer?

My goal is to try to reach level 7 by the end of next week. The strangest fact is the Language Questions can't seem to become any easier and I'm trying to find a topic I know so I can at least give good quality in an answer. That got me thinking as to how can I quickly rank up points without using the cheating method? I'm not receiving a lot of good thumbs up for my best answers or a lot of good possible feedback to help me improve. If my Starry Night has worked within the last month, I probably wouldn't have lost my Top Contributor badge there because everything I say on that forum is based off of knowledge from Starry Night. Since I can't find the disc, maybe it's time to start relying on something else? I also need to play more Pokemon video games since I seem to get knowledge from there to help me answer those Other Games and Recreations questions, but for now which sections reward multiple thumbs up for an answer? I think it tells me only up to 50 count and last time I won best answer, it was for a Japanese question and I won 12 points but for German questions I never seem to get anything and I explained my answers quite clearly using clear English and German. I am a part German speaker after all. When I get a newer source, I'm going to reinstate it and clear my mind of anything else.

Any games like gta 3 or san andreas?

Like the type of games when you start small but eventually become really poweful? Gta 3, you break out from prison and end up with body guards and a top rank mafia, and sa where you just end up having a large group of people follow you around??

Why is he acting like this all of a sudden?

Olivia there is only one thing I see in this your narration, Joe is jealous of Mike. He thinks that you and Mike are dating.

Why did he say this hurtful thing to me?

Looks like Jake is a green-eyed monster. He's jealous. He probably likes you, but doesn't know how to act mature. Forget about him. he needs to do some more growing up...

Is there some kind of meaning behind it or was it just a hug?

Any good first date ideas?

Ok, so I'm young and my parents are really protective and me and my boyfriend wanna go out on a date soon. I can't really think of anything we could do. movies are out and i want something we can do without my parents suffocating us. We are really touchy feely like we like to hold hands and he likes to put his arms around me and I dont want us to have to be different just cause were with my parents. so any help is great!!! I don't hate that my parents are protective. I just want to be able to have fun and make my parents happy at the same time. Trust me I appreciate the fact that my parents care. I don't mind if my parents are with us, i want them to like him, I just want us to have fun and if we do something where my parents can still watch us but not be right on top of us that would be great. BTW perverts will get spammed!!!!
