Lately people haven't been rating the answers you leave to their questions nor do they leave feedback if they even bother to rate it.

Is this just me or is this happening to all of you ?

Because I've answered about 20 questions and onnly got rated on about 5.

Thanks !

no need to woory
ive answered like 300 questions and gotten only like 110 ratings.

you are right, some people really don't bother
they should because then we can see that our effort in taking the time to answer the question is being appriciated, plus it makes me feel good.

some people don't bother cause they're lazy. or maybe they don't need the advice anymore.

but it is nice to get ratings, i admit it :)
youll get more, that's why i make sure to always give ratings and feedback!

okay so 15f...i play volleyball, and i have flat feet. So its never really effected me, just that recently like in the arch of my foot, when i get up to walk or lean on the floor on my knees, at random moments like my foot hurts there. It feels like a sharp pain, like my bone is stretching my skin and gonna pop out or something (but not that that servere)Its my right foot. Here is the location: on your right foot, go to the left side of your right foot where the ancle bone is. Go all the way down to where you get to the bottom of your foot. It feels normal afterwards though.

you insoles
my dad had pain and he went to a doctor and got them costom made, he says they help sooo much (but you don't have to get them costom made, go to like a drugstore and find the right size)

Can anyone think of a country song that can say all of the following:

I'm sorry that you love me unrequietedly, and now that you are off at war, I want you to know that you're in my prayers, and I never want to lose you as a friend

?

i know its by Dixie Chicks
ohhh its Travelin' Soldier, i just looked it up, lol

So, I have the hardest time swallowing pills. It's weird, I use to be able to. But for some reason now I just can't do it. I know it's all in my head and I think I'll choke or something. Any advice?

cut the pill in half, if its smaller you will have a easier time swollowing it
also have some water with it
if those don't work then swollow the pill with food, like while your eating

good luck

ok, so there was this girl that went to my school who had cancer for the part 3 years. She was the nicest person i have ever met in my life, and always had something nice to say. She was fun and so much fun to be around. Recently (1-14-08)after going into remission 3 times, she passed away. I'm not saying that i was like best friends with this girl, because i wasn't, but i did know her. We sat together in Chemistry and always talked, and were even going to be lab partners before her cancer came back. I'm having a really hard time dealing with this loss. I just can't handle that this great person is gone and i'm never going to see her again. I cry really easily and everytime someone really bring up her death in school, or there is an announcement made about her, or they show a powerpoint on her life, i start to cry. I went to her viewing today, and just completely broke down. it was just hard to see this person who was so full of life and fun just lying there dead.
I was really just wondering if anyone could give me some advice to help me cope with this loss or anything like that. Thanks

i am so sorry. i know you feel. ive lost some family member and its sad.

i don't know if you are religious or not but let me say this. sometimes God gives us these situations to remind us that life is short and that it can end anytime and you can't expect it.

my advice would be to become someone like her. to become nice and kind. become a fun person to be with. the reason im saying this is because, think of how much you miss her and how she made a normal day a happier one. become a nice, knid person so that one day when you die, you have people behind you thinking of how nice you were.
(im not trying to make you more sad, honestly).

your saddness will pass and there will be random times that you will remmeber her, but thats life.

everything will be okay. take a deep breath and smile :)

=D thank you! I think that's the way it shown because she told us the way is shown in our agendas too and it's exactly like that.

Do you mind just doing one for thsi site for me? Just so i can ge tthe idea and do it for 20 other sites? =.=

http://www.skimarmot.com/about_jasper.html

Oh and last question: When you write the several informations, is it sepereated by lines (enter) or do you jsut put a period and space liek the example i wrote on my other question?

Thanks!

no prob
here it is
"About Jasper." Ski Mount Basin: Canadian Rockies Ski Resort. Marmot Basin Ski Hill. 18 Jan 2008 .

here is the cite i use to do my citations for me
http://citationmachine.net/index.php?reqstyleid=1&reqsrcid=14&mode=form&more=
or go on google and type in "son of citation machine" very good cite

so what you do is
-your paper has to be double spaced
-"hanging" like when you go to Microsoft Word, then "Format", "Paragraph" indentations and click "hanging".
that should do it
if you are still confuesed go to google and type in lik "MLA formatting"

im glad i could help!!!

so ive been going to a private school my entire life, ever since i was 3. and its been the same school too. ive also known the kids in my grade for about 11 years and weve gotten really close. but this school only goes up to 8th grade. last year was my last year at that school and graduating it was the saddest thing ever. ive never cried so much. so this year, [in september] i switched over to a public highschool, which is completely different by the way. only two of my friends from my old school came with me, but there not in any of my classes. so i had to learn the hard way and make completely new friends from scratch. it also sucks because these kids have known eachother since middle school and they already have their own groups. well the first month of school i thought id fit it in good and make a lot of new friends, but i thought wrong. its been about 5 months now and so far ive gotten 2 close friends, and about 5 friends i just talk to but were not close..and there not really the coolest of the bunch..[there not losers, but idk.] and sure i have those people i smile at in the hall, but thats nothing. i hardly talk to them. its just been really hard for me and i dont think anyone seems to understand. in all of my classes ive got one person to talk to, but still..there not my friends, really..only some of them. its complicated but sometimes i get embarssed when people see me talking to those people, since im new i dont want to be put into the loser catagory. and u know i dont think im a loser. this may sound conceited a little..but i should be talking to people that are better than that..you know. its hard to explain really but right now life is just ughh im not that happy with it right now. i havent been in a good mood for a really long time. i cant remember the last time..somethings wrong with me why arent i able to make more friends as easily as all of my other old school friends? all of them have their own group now..im litterly the only one. it really upsets me. i hope you understand how i feel

i have moved a lot! the longest ive ever lived in a place was three years and that was only once! the other times i moved like after two years. anyways, i know how to make friends! i kinda have to when i go to a new school.
i know its hard but here's what i did
-i smiled at everyone (at the right moments)
-i helped random people when they needed help (in class, hallway, liberary, this way people get to know you)
-starta conversation about something, anything (like "hey, what movie theaters are the best here?" or "which do you like better? subway or quiznos") random things to "break the ice"
-ask your "kinda friends" to the movies or some place like the football game or the school play (if no one invites you, invite them, they might be shy too)
that's what i did and i made friends really quick
also friendship develops over time
you are lucky that you had friends for such a long time, but its also good because you are getting a new experience
also try being a little more outgoing! be nice and smile and people will start to notice you and like you!

I'm getting pretty bored with my haircolor as it is now, so I was wanting to color my hair.
But I'm wondering what you guys would think would be a nice hair color for myself?


Here's a picture, so you can decide from it:
http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s165/xx_tickle_me_emo_xx/Picture315.jpg

Thank youu. :]

maybe a light brown
dark brown with light brown highlights
you could also put in brown highlights with your current hair color
also i think that you shouldn't dye your hair black, that would really look bad

I read some stuff and researched on how to write a bibliography for SITES but i don't get it =/. Why do you have to list so much? In my school, we made a chart: list the date that we found the site and write the url.

But on the site that i found, it says:
-
Website
Lynch, Tim. "DSN Trials and Tribble-ations Review." Psi Phi: Bradley's
Science Fiction Club. 1996. Bradley University. 8 Oct. 1997 .
-

What's the stuff at the top line? What if i site i found isn't really professional and had nothing but a tiny bit of information that i used?

Can anyone set an example of a bibliography using this site for me or tell me about it in a more better detail? Thanky uo so much!
http://www.skimarmot.com/about_jasper.html

okay, there are many different ways to do a bibliography
a common way is called MLA. thats what the example is
it a professional way to cite where you found information, they use it in college and so lots of high schools are having kids do it that way so they can get used to it.

for it there is a specific format where you name the author of the site, the name of the cite, the name of the web page, when it was revised, when you acsessed it, and the URL (its a lot. you can lot's of sites that help you and even some that do it for you when you provide certain info

ask your teacher for english which way she prefers, if your school does it using charts thats fine but its also good to be fimiliar with MLA.

hope you got it, i know it moght be confusing

i got water in my vx9800. it wont turn off. it says 'charge complete' and the buttons flicker. what can i do.

ok well i was just cleaning my bathroom and well i accidently sprayed my razor with the spray and just rinsed it off and didnt think much of it until a few minutes later when i decided to take a bath and shave my downstairs and my legs and well now i have bad irritation and what do i do to get rid of it :(

iput lotion on is there anything else???

ouch, that was a mistake

wash your legs with water only first, then with soap
since chemical was on the razor, if it gets bad you might have to go to a doctor) also make sure that you don't have any cuts because if you do, then i would recommend you going to a doctorimmediatly!

if you wash it off, it should be fine, but be precaucious! and becareful not to do it again.

I have to walk in heels by the 8th of February. I have no clue how!!! Once I tried and I twisted my ankle. help???

i hate heels myslf and i have a hard time walking too
what i did was i started low, 1/2 inch heel, get comfotable with them and work up to it. wear heels that are not to thin first, develop your balance
over time you will get better

i'm really exasperated with my style and want to try something new.

i love kate nash's style, and lily allen's.
unfortunately i can't wear dresses to school because i play the cello, but what would be some ways to dress up my style with them as inspirations?

thanks!

try wearing those long beaded necklaces with a cute shirt
put on a bracelet and earings
you can also wear a dress with like leggings/tights (the ones that come to your calves).
or a tank top w/ a shirt underneith(sp?)

Alright, so basically my style in clothes sucks. I just wear jeans and sweatshirts all of the time. I really want to change my style into a more fashionable trend I guess. I'm not the kind of person who wears the hollister short skirts and uggs kind of person either so please don't reccomend any kind of those clothes that are skanky. How can I ease into a new style with out just changing really quick, so people don't think that i'm crazy. Also, what are some really good outfits and stuff? Pictures would be nice too! I'm a sophomore in high school (16). Again, I really don't like the preppy, uggs stlye, but not really the grungy types of clothes either. thanks!

that's me
im a sweatshirt, tee shirt, jeans kind of girl
what i do sometime is wear button down shirts and wear a sparkly top. i do this on random days just so people don't think that i only have tee-shirts and jeans. also sometimes i wear like a short sleeved shirt w/ a long sleeved shiirt underneath. also try getting some zipper sweaters so that people can see youo tee shirt (that way it doesn't look like you wear the same thing everyday)

but honestly, i don't really care about trends and don't care what people think i look like
alot of kids in my school are like this! you're not alone, lol.
