today i just found out that my school wont be opened for the fall trimester from some dumb fucked up reason.. and that they will reopen in december. i only need 3 credits to graduate so i was only going to go to school from sept- dec and then be done. now, i have to find a new school to go. the school recommended a new school to us and i checked out its brochure, and its a christian school. well, ive been to a catholic highschool before, and im thinking, if im going to be going to a school of religion, i might as well go back there to the catholic school. well, i want to know whats the difference between christian and catholic.. and how are christian teachings different?

Christianity is the general branch of religion, and it includes Catholicism, along with Protestantism and Baptists and Methodists and suchlike. Catholicism includes believing in the saints; the sacraments, like confessing, taking the Eucharist (the bread thingy); and like all of Christian religions, the belief in Jesus.
A Catholic school would probably be taught, in part, by nuns or sisters. Catholic schools are usually quite strict and fairly small. In some, you might have a religion class in which they teach you about the faith, but I'm not really sure.
Hope this helps.

I lost my voice about a month ago when I went to a singing camp. I had basically overused my voice. Usually I am asked to sing at weddings and such, so my voice is important to me as a way to earn money and express myself. However, after my voice came back after losing it, it has changed. It almost seems for airy, or not as strong. I feel like I forgot how to sing in a way. This has never happened before. I can still sing, but it wasn't as good as it was. Any suggestions on how to build my voice back up to its full potential? (link)

I've seen this happen-- to a lesser degree-- at my chorus camp. The only thing for it seems to be to rest your voice, not shout at all, and drink tons of tea. Chamomile is okay, but lemon-- with honey-- is the best.
Wear a scarf if it's cold out or damp. I love wearing my scarf, and since I started wearing it, I get about half as many problems with my throat as I used to.
As for building back your voice, try doing some solfedge exercises. Doing a scale-- "do, do re do, do re mi re do," etc, and clapping on each 'do' works fairly well.
If none of this helps, you might want to see a doctor.
