about

Long story short, I'm from Los Angeles, went to an amazing school, left the US and moved to the Middle East. I've been backpacking around Europe and the Middle East on and off since August 2013.


Would you like to converse? Here's my Forum




Quite frankly, I'm sarcastic way more than I should be. Read a few of my answers, and you'll see that I am not totally mean to anyone.

Type correctly or go home. Yes, that is an ultimatum.

15/f. Sophomore.

I took the PSAT about a week ago. There was only critical thinking/reading, math, and I'm not sure what the other section was called, but it was like grammer and choosing the right word. Are these the only subjects on the SAT? What about science? History?

On the math test, there was multiple choice, and then there was fill in. It was if you missed any math that wasn't multiple choice, it wouldn't count agaist you. How can it not count? What's the point of it?

One last question. What's a good score to get? A bad one? How many is it out of?

Any answers appreciated.
Thanks!!

Critical Reading, Math, and something about Writing Skills were the three subjects.

Grammar, by the way. ;]

Science and History are covered on the ACT, but not the SAT.

The reason that they count things against you is to offset random guessing. If you guessed on them all, got 1/5 right, you would get a zero on the test proving that you know nothing. Since you can't just choose a letter, they don't penalize you for guessing.

Each section is out of 800; good scores are usually 650 or so and up. Bad is less than like 500.

I'm looking for information about the Roxy theatre on Sunset Blvd. in West Hollywood, CA.

I've searched all over the internet, and these questions are probably only answerable by those who have been to the Roxy.

For concerts, is admission all ages?

Because of the bar upstairs, must you be 21 to get in?

Is there an interior lobby?

During concerts, do they sell refreshments? If so, where?

Any other information you can give me about the layout and such about the Roxy would be greatly appreciated.

I am looking for this information, in particular, for research on the Jonas Brothers Concert there on July 31, 2007.

It depends on the show. A lot of bands make it 21 plus just so they don't have to deal with the whole alcohol thing.

I don't know anything else, though. Sorry.

How would you classify hydrogen? Give at least one reason.

Besides the fact that Google will be more than happy to tell you, this is not a homework help site.

Plus, that's a really easy question that you should know the answer to anyway.

13/F

People are always insulting me and my friends about watching Naruto, Bleach etc... They say its a baby show. First off, it is not. There's porn in it, for God's SAKE!!!!!!!!! What do I tell peopel who tease me and my friends? I tried to ignore it, but now it's just pissing me off. I'm obsessed with anime. So are my friends, we shouldn't be judged should we?!

p.s if you're the matt guy who keeps insulting me on this thing, don't you dare leave any advice, cuz you're making me mad. See? I finally posted a question about your anime cruelty! You should be surprised I ain't got ninjas on yo ass!!!! ^/_\^
p.p.s not a threat, it's a joke, pth! ^/_\^

If you're concerned about how people you don't even know judge you, you have other issues at hand.

If that's what makes you happy, then let it continue to make you happy.

Just as you have every right to talk about how much you love anime, other people have every right to talk about how much they hate anime.

Knowing Matt, your feelings probably aren't his primary concern. Also knowing Matt, he doesn't really try to offend people. Okay, maybe he does. But nothing he says is usually ever OFFENSIVE. Don't take anything he says as seriously as you already have.

So I'm extremely liberal, but can any one give me a website that shows views that liberals have. Such as pro-abortions, etc. Also, I'm really into saving the environment, so anything like that.
Thankss =]

If you're liberal, shouldn't you know what you stand for?

You could google this next time...

I have A.P Euro, and for the first marking period, there's a large chance I will get a C on my report card for that class. Will it affect my GPA DRAMATICALLY? I have a 3.8999 etc.
I'm a sophomore and really worried. lol

It will count like a B in any other class, so no, it shouldn't.

i was just wondering what colour are girls nipples?

i mean i know black girls are black,but asians/latins and whites are from brown to red to pink,why is that? or do the nipple colour gets darker as they grow older?

It does have to do with the same pigmentation as skin and hair. Melanin, I believe.

The color doesn't necessarily change as girls age, though it can.

do ur boobs hurt when u have breast cancer becouse my nipples hurt!...

I would assume so, but chances are that if you're young enough to type like the way you do, you'res still growing, and that does hurt.

If it's been bothering you for awhile, schedule an appointment with a doctor.

Im a junior in highschool and I want a college that balances fun with studies and I want to become a doctor but i dont want to do pre-med, probably something with social sciences. I want a challenge but also good parties on the weekends and stuff. My current GPA (before entering junior year) is 3.9. So if you or anyone you know goes to one of these schools could you give me some personal info and feedback about it? Also, feel free to suggest any more based on my likes. thanks!

Brandeis Univeristy
Bucknell University
Carnegie Mellon University
Clark University
Colgate University
Columbia University
Dartmouth University
Lehigh University
Miami University (of Ohio)
Northeastern University

Thanks Again!

I have lived on the Brandeis campus..it's wonderful. But, I'm Jewish, so I love all Jewish schools.

UCSB is beautiful. Everyone there is really nice and friendly, and the campus is really cute. They are remodeling right now, so it'll be spiffy when you get there. :]

Do all girls like chocolate. And if they do do the like Dark or Milk better?

Absolutely not. I HATE chocolate, and when given chocolate, I IMMMEDIATELY give it to someone else. I hate the thought of it, the look of it, everything about it.

Yucky.

I have a few math problems I forgot how to do. If you only know how to do one of them that's fine. Thanks in advance.

1. What does this mean? "What is the slope of the linear equation 5y-10x=-15" How do you figure it out?

2. If x = 2a - b2, how do you figure out what "a" equals?

3. How do you figure out what the slope of the linear equation 5y-10x=-15 is?

1. The slope of a line is the angle at which it "goes," for lack of a better term.

I will do a similar problem for you: 2y-4x=-6

First, you need to get it into slope-intercept form...y=mx + b.

Add 4x to both sides. 2y= 4x-6
Divide by 2. y= 2x-3

Now, you have the problem in slope-intercept form. Since your questions 1 and 3 are asking the same thing, this should satisfy them both. Here goes:

The "m" value (In the case of y= 2x-3, this is 2.) is the slope. The "b" value (In this case, the -3.) is where the graph crosses the vertical axis.




As for question number 2, you need to isolate a. I assume that by b2 you meant b squared. From now on, write b squared like this: b^2.

were the nazis racist or like is there a word for like religionist? b/c jewish isnt a race. so im confused.

Yes, they were racist, but also anti-Semitic. They disliked Jews, but only just more than half of those persecuted were Jews.

You are right; Jewish is NOT a race. I am Jewish be faith, and by nothing else. My ancestry is Russian, Polish, and a liiiiiittle German, as is the same for most other Jews whose ancestors were Jewish. Israel is a country, and Israeli also is not a race. Middle Eastern best describes people of Israeli descent, many of whom are NOT Jewish.

There's not really ONE word for "religionist" it kinda just depends on which religion you're talking about.

I'm sorry if this is kinda long.
I've been going out with my bf for about 6/7 months now, and he was a virgin before and I wasn't. About two months into it we had sex, mainly initiated by me, and it's like he can't get enough of it! I just basically played up to it at first. About a month ago we had just had sex and I told him I loved him because I did. He went quiet for like a few minutes and then he said that he would wait until he truly meant it to say it to me, blah blah blah. This hurt me but as he was only being mature I just accepted it. Ever since then he never gives me any compliments that isn't to do with me being sexy or being good at something sexual etc, he although he does hang out with me if sex isn't involved I clearly get the vibe that he's not having much fun and if there is ever a possibility for something like that we WILL do it. I'm beginning to feel like I'm being used. He's also going to college soon and the idea befoer was that we'd keep it longdistance and now I'm not so sure. The thing is, I do genuinely love him, and I'm wondering if I'm just being oversensitive cos he didn't tell me he loved me - he's got a reputation as being this really nice and decent guy, and it's not like he pressured me into sex to start with! It would really upset me if I had to split up with him! There's this other guy I've been chatting to a lot recently who's really nice to me and I think he likes me for the right reasons as well - I would NEVER cheat on my bf but it's opening up my eyes to what's out there. As you see I need some help :( Thank you! .xoxo

I really think that he's using you for sex. If he didn't love you, then why would he have had sex with you in the first place?

I think that you guys should break up, and that you should pursue the other relationship with the guy who opened your eyes a little wider.

im taking photography class son.. do you think they would ask us to buy a camera? good cameras are expensive, right? and how about those black and white cameras? what are some good cameras out there? and price?

In the case of film, a REBEL made by Canon is about all you can get. It runs between $80 and$120.

I like this guy and he likes me. We hang out a lot with other friends and stuff and we flirt too. I want to go out with him but I don't know if he really likes me. What should I do? I want to give him a hug goodnight when we go in for the night but I don't know if he would hug back or what. So please help I really don't know what to do.

Everybody loves hugs.

Well, most people do if it's a hug with someone they aren't repulsed by.

Just let it play out, and flirt a little bit.

You don't mention whether you're looking for film or digital. They do mandate that students buy a camera more often than not.

Please add more information ad send me an email to let me know you've done so.

whats the difference between using these words:
ese, esto, esa, esta, aquel, aquello b/c they all mean like "this" or "that"?

This (Someting you're really close to. For example, the computer you're on.): Este, Esta PLURALS: Estos, Estas
^ THIS ^ ^ THESE ^

Por ejemplo: Estas cosas son verdes. (These things are green.)

This and these both have Ts. That and those don't.

That (Something you're physically close to, but not really close enough to touch. If you were in a computer lab, the computer next to you.): Ese, Esa PLURALS: Esos, Esas
^THAT^ ^THOSE^

Por ejemplo: Estas cosas que están en mis manos son verdes, pero esos libros en tu escritorio son rojos. (These things in my hands are green, but those books on your desk are red.)

That one over there (Something across a room. You could use it to describe something on the opposite end of a street or school.): Aquel, Aquella PLURALS: Aquellos, Aquellas
^That one over there^ ^Those over there^

Por ejemplo: Aquel edificio, a través de la calle, es azul. (That building over there, across the street, is blue.)

Se cercioran de sus adjetivos y sustantivos convenir. (Make sure your adjectives and nouns agree.)

¡Buena suerte con tu español!
