19/f
I'm taking a Japanese Culture class and I was told to come up with some questions to ask an international Japanese student about my topic. My topic is Japanese Cherry Blossom festivals. I have to come up with questions that the students would be able to understand and some research questions for myself to research. I have to write a 5 page double spaced paper due to these question's answers. I'm not asking for the answers to these questions, I'm asking for what questions I could possibly ask. Here's the format:
Research Questions: (general but critical/analytical questions for you to discuss in your paper)
Questions to Japanese partners: (need to be concrete and specific so that non-native speakers can handle them)
These are the ones I came up with so far:
1. What is the Japanese Cherry Blossom Festival?
2. When is the Japanese Cherry Blossom festival held?
3. What activities are in Japanese Cherry Blossom festival?
Please answer ASAP if you can think of questions quickly, I am terrible of thinking of any. :(

When was the first Japanese cherry blossom festival first started and why. Is there any symbolic symbolism for the festival. What traditions are used with the festival.

Homecomings round the corner, and i have yet to choose a dress! I have this floral one, thats white with green and blue flowers on it, that i like, but is it 'allowed' to wear a bright summery dress to homecoming? (link)
| |
I believe with home coming it is okay as long as it looks fancy. If it is a summer dress then it might be too casual for homecoming.

I've been taking birth control for 9 years. I came off the pill last month, just before u was due for my period. I am due for my period and haven't started yet, but am supposed to start the pill again. Do I wait til I get my period to start or do I just stry when I normally would had I gotten my period? (link)
| |
I would start right away. It takes about a week for birth control pills so clear out of the body system. as well it takes a week to get it fully active again if your planning to do it.

I think I'm getting a physical next week and I'm wondering if I can ask my doctor not to look in my mouth. I'm over 18, but my dad will probably want to go in to see the doctor with me. The problem is that I have scars in my mouth from a very stupid accident that I don't want my doctor or dad to know about. I've gotten care for it from my boyfriend's dad who is a doctor, so it's taken care of, but I'd be extremely ashamed for anybody to know about it. Can I call him and ask him not to look in my mouth? If so, will he ask any questions and how will I possibly answer them? (link)
| |
It is a good idea to inform your doctor about the incident incase it does becojme infected or worse in years later. Now your dad should not be in the room when you get a physical. it is against your rights. as well as the privatesy of the doctor patient, even if you are 18. 18 is the legal age. either way your doctor should know about it.

I'm 22 and I've been dating a guy(21) right at about 3 months now, and I fell head over heels for him early on. He was so great, and we had so much fun together! But about a month and a half in we started arguing all the time. Over the stupidest things. Sometimes though it was really serious stuff, like I had a very rough childhood and I still have a lot of emotional problems from it, and he would tell me how I should be over it by now and I was just letting myself go crazy. and he started getting super jealous when I've never given him a reason too. He even got mad at me and started an argument with me because when I pick something up off the floor I bend straight over and don't bend my knees. Told me I was "inviting guys to stare at my butt". Even when I tried to end some of these arguments he just wouldn't let it go! One of the fights we had got into was over a guy friend of mine I've had for almost 2 years, who just went through a bad break up with his gf of a year and a half, and we made plans to hang out since we hadn't saw each other in a while. My boyfriend flipped! Said if I loved him I wouldn't ever hang out with a guy alone. I told him from the beginning of the relationship that I was a tomboy growing up and had a TON of guy friends and he had acted fine with it. I finally had enough and ended it. He bawled like a baby and begged for another chance, swearing he would change. The thing is, is I had had a HUGE crush on my guy friend that I had made plans to hang out with almost 2 years ago when we first met. He's just the sweetest guy and was always so supportive and caring and we would webchat for hours almost every night. And he never made any kind of remark that he liked m and when he got into a relationship I just kinda let it go and moved on. We've started talking just as friends again, more since him and his gf broke up and I've hung out with him once, and the feelings are there again. And my ex, is doing EVERYTHING right to get me back and I do still really care about him, but I just don't feel the way i use to. I don't miss him when I go days without seeing him, and I honestly don't think we will work long term. and I know my guy friend has never made any kind of anything towards me about liking me, but I just can't get him out of my head. I don't know what to do. I know this is really long, and I'm really sorry. I just really need advice!! Do I try to make it work with my ex and see if the feelings will come back if he's changed, or do I move on and tell my friend I like him? Or do I just let my ex go, and stay friends with my friend unless he makes a move?? HELP! PLEASE!!!!:(

Because you don't have feelingss for your ex anymore you don't want to start dating him again in hopes that the feelings 'come back' because if they don't then you will be leading him on.. It sounds like your just over it. I would not go back to your ex. and i would wait a while before making a move with your guy friend. hang out with him more and see if he flirts back when you flirt. but yet you don't want to do it too soon. because a you don't want him to think he is the rebound. and you don't want him to actually be a rebound.

I am 19/f and I attend a medical college. As long as I've been in school, all my teachers have told us it is important to take a multi-vitamin everyday, especially of you don't get a lot of it in your diet. As I was in the store the other day trying to find a multi-vitamin the lady from the little clinic came over and asked if I needed help finding one. She said I shouldn't take ANY vitamins becaus if you don't think your deficient in anything, you could be over vitaminizing yourself. Which is bad. She also told me if I do start taking them, if I don't feel better in a week or so to stop taking them because my bones are still growing. So I am confused on if I should be taking vitamins or not. All it is is a multi vitamin. Are they fine to take? Or should I restrain? Thank you ! (link)
| |
A. This lady is a dumb ass idiot and does not know what she is talking about. it is very good for your body to take a multi-vitamin. the only way you can over does your vitamines is if you take alot of them at once. I take a multi vitamin, c, 2 d tablets a day. it is very healthy for your body. especially because your body is growing.

My baby is due in two weeks and i have to go back to work.. so i was wondering where can i find a great babysitter with experince..also i would love a background check (link)
| |
you can ask for references as well as a background check. as well you can have baby sitter interviews or practices? ask her vital questions bout what she/he would do in various situations. do they have any previous experience is very important. try lookingn on kijiji or fellow add sites. maybe putting an add into the newspaper?
|
Is it possible for me to lose 40 - 50 pounds by the end of December if I eat healthy and workout everyday?

I am a 24/F that has a fulfilling life with great family & friends, will have my degree soon and also work. I recently started dating a great guy. The problem is, I don't know how to navigate this. He's more of a "go with the flow" and as much as I would love to be that way, I'm a planner & sort of uptight. Thinking about it though, I'm not sure I'd even have the time/energy for a full-time boyfriend. It's getting intense since we are both very sexually attracted to each other. This excites me, but also scares me. I want him to respect me, but I'm also a realist & don't necessarily need to be in love to have sex. My body, mind & heart are at war here. I'm worried if I take it to the next level, he'll have everything he wants - a girl that he can have fun & have sex with no strings attached. Then again, I'll have that too! What should I do here? (link)
|
First off. When you say you don't have energy or time for a full time boyfriend.. get real! This is not a job! This is a life partner. Just because you have a boyfriend does not mean that you will be doing it as a job. You should be with sommeone because you like them. Not because it's a job. Don't give it to him right away., and respect comes with time. not right away. If you want to be with him you should be with himm.
No strings attached is for people that have no feelings. that don't like eachother but want the sex.
Sounds like you like this guy but you are scared to let someone in. I know what that's like, It can be scary. But If you don't let them in. you may be missing out on a great thing. And if you let them in, you may find something great and amazing.

I want to send fanmail to One Direction
The address is
Modest Management
The Matrix Complex
91 Peterborough Rd
London
SW6 3BU
I ship things on Ebay using Priority Mail Flat Rate envelopes and I thought I could just print out a shipping label and use that to mail the letter. But I can't figure out how. When I go to print on I can't find London or the UK on the list so that leads me to believe I can't use this envelope. So I would need to use a normal everyday envelope, right? Do I need any special stamps to ship this to London?
I don't mail ever and my dad has never mailed anything outside of the USA so we're both confused. (link)

well..there's this boy at my school who likes and he is really such a nice guy who deserves someone nice to like him back.How do i let him down easy,because he is really such a great person and friend!! (link)

No matter what you do, There is going to be hurt feelings. That is inevadable. But you do want to tell him sooner rather than later. It is very wrong to lead someone on when there is no feelings on your side. Just tell him that althought he likes you and he is a really really sweet guy. and anyone would be lucky to be with him. Your just not the one for him. explain that you guys are very good friends and you don't want to hurt that. but you just don't feel that way.
Good luck hon.

So, there's this guy at my university who ties a rope between two trees and does tricks on it. It's the coolest thing. I usually go have dinner and then I go outside to the courtyard where he does this and I sit on the DMZ with my roommate and watch him. Some people go up to him and ask if they can get on it and try it and he let's them, sometimes he lets girls get on and try it. Whenever somebody gets on it and messes up, he hops on it and does a cool trick to impress people, every time he does a trick, without fail, he looks up to me. I've watched him about 4 times, usually people just watch in passing but I think he likes that I sit and watch more than one time. My roommate thinks he thinks that I'm cute, that's why he looks at me after a trick or when he randomly just turns around at times when he's resting while his friends go on. I've noticed that he does look at me a lot but I've never thought much of it because he talks to every girl that watches him do tricks, he holds girls hands that go on it so he can help balance them, he asks girls that watch him if they wanna hang out. I guess what I'm asking is why he can talk to all the other girls and not me if he thinks I'm cute or if he even thinks I'm cute? Thanks. (link)
|
First off have you made any effort to talk to him? men are just as scared as girls to walk up and start a conversation believe it or not. Maybe he hasn't addressed you because he is unsure if there is any interest on your side of the bar. It is a two way street. I would suggest going up and talking to him. if you are gonna say.. about what.? maybe ask him how he started doing these tricks or how did you do that certain trick. that will break the ice of not talking and you might actually get a date in.
Good luck:)

21/f I have ADHD and have been off and on my meds. Well anyways I've had trouble keeping a job for as long as I remember. My first job i walked out on because I was really upset. Well I changed my attitude, and I learned to be better. And after that it was mostly because I was slow and employers would get upset with me, or It takes forever for me to learn something. Then they tell me it's not working out. I mean this has been going on for the last years and I just want to be able to keep a job. I am back on my medication, and I am going to work at a salon as a receptionist, and I am very scared. I start training tomorrow, and the manager said it's a lot of responsibility. I have to answer calls, book appointments, I am pretty much the mother of the salon, and I'd also have to fold towels, and I'll be knowing how much the hairstylists make. There will be another receptionist there who will be training me. And she said by Thursday I should be getting the hang of it. I am going to work on Tuesday, and then Thursdays from like 3-7, and half Saturdays from 8-1 pm. I usually take a notebook with me to write stuff down so i don't forget things, but I am still scared, what should I do? (link)

Every new job is scary, doesn't matter what it is. Yes you may have a learning disability. but that does not mean you are unable to work. it is normal that it takes time to learn things. it's a process of learning. I would say just take a deep breath. Relax. because you have got this! There may be alot of responsibility. but it takes time to learn everything. look at teachers and doctors. they didn't just jump right in, they learned how to do their jobs the important information before they got good at their jobs. you will do great hon, just take a deep breath, and remember you got this.

Im 14/f and my mom is going to put me on birth control pill. I didn't even ask, she just wants me too, and I was wondering what all it does and things. Thank you guys:D (link)

Birth Control is not only for helping prevent pregnancy ( I say helping because it DOES NOT always prevent it) as well as it regulates your periods.
BC pills:
Take a pill each day to prevent pregnancy
Safe, effective, and convenient
Easy to get with a prescription
Cost about $15–$50 each month
this website here has a whole bunch of information from what is birth control to the benifits of taking birthcontrol and what if i miss a pill. so def check it out:
http://www.plannedparenthood.org/health-topics/birth-control/birth-control-pill-4228.htm
Also you have to consider there are many types of birthcontrol. from the pill to a needle, to a patch you wear.
this website below gives you some information about choosing the right one for you:

Hope This Helps

My best friends birthday is in a week. He is turning 18. I wanted this gift to be the best one yet. I'm leaving for college next week too so all our friends are doing his birthday and my going away party.
I'm thinking of doing a gift basket type of thing. Like candy and a gift card but I have no clue what else. I have ideas but I'm almost broke. I can't spend a lot of money cause I'm gonna need as much as I can when I go.
So any cheap ideas? It would be much appreciated! Thanks! (link)
|
gift baskets are usually a girl thing.
But what about pre-orderinng black ops 2 and then getting a gift card so that he doesn't have to pay for it when the game is actually released. or you could do something from his fav band/artist.
Or buying him something for his guitar would be pretty steller!

I need help because I've been seriously contemplating suicide. Nobody but my boyfriend knows this. Many people on this website and my boyfriend told me to talk to somebody about it. However, I'm unsure on how to do this. I don't want to mention it to my parents, because, well, they're youth pastors and I feel as if they haven't known my situation lately and I tell them it's been going on for awhile, they'll think badly of themselves. Or if I told somebody close to me, they'll think my parents shouldn't be in a position to help other teens like me. But, I don't think it's all there fault they don't know, I hide it well. I don't know how to talk to someone i know about my cutting or suicidal thoughts. Please somebody help me! I am embarrassed by my situation and I don't want somebody to think badly of my family or myself. (link)
|
Althought your parents are both youth pastors, they still are your parents first. and because they do help people around your age with issues they face every single day. they may understand your situation more than you think they might. You definetly need to talk to someone you trust. and Your parents want nothing but to take care of you.
Yes it is very scary talking about your problems especially to your parents. Make sure you tell them and make it clear that it is truly not their faults. and any one who knows your family will not think badly of you at all. Sometimes these things happen. and we feel this way. I did go through a big depression stage my self. it is hardd. but it does get better.
step one is telling them. I'm depressed. I've had thougths of cutting and or suicide. . Go on to tell them how often you think of this. how it makes you feel. Why you think you feel this way.
Maybe even wriiting it in a letter and then talking to them might be easier for you.
Hope this helps

I got into a fight with my boyfriend. I really upset him by saying he doesn't love me. Truth is I don't even know why i said it. I was hurt. I thought he was ignoring me. He wasn't of course. I already admitted my wrong and apoligized. But he said i made him feel like a joke and he doesnt love me anymore, but he still really likes me. I need help, how can I fix this?
My heart is aching. This guy, he means the world to me. Im sorry for all the grammatical errors, its hard to see when your crying. Please help, I want my sweet and loving boyfriend back. (link)
|
First of all. you have to realize you majorly burned him. It is normal for him to be very upset about this issue.
Def hive him some space. you did say you were sorry. but that is something that is a cold thing tosay even in an upset moment.
You need to make it up to him. do everything you can to prove to him just how much you do still love him.
make him something
bake him something
buy him something
video something
just make sure it is truly from his heart. he will seee the effort u are putting in for him.
