spring break
Posted Tuesday March 23 2010, 5:55 pm
17/f
hi, so me and 4 of my friends are going to daytona beach, florida for spring break. we're going to be staying in a house with one of the girls families but we have a car and the beach is within walking distance. obviously we're gonna go to the beach a lot, go out to eat, etc. but i was wondering if anyone can think of anything else we can do there because 7 days going to the beach everyday is bound to get boring. we were thinking: jetskiing, parasailing, snorkeling.. any other ideas? or anyone from the area know anything fun to do?
Thanks! <3

Video sound on iPhone
Posted Tuesday March 23 2010, 5:39 pm
I have an iPhone 3GS and I want to know if there is a way to play the sound from my videos when I am not in the iPod app? Like for example if I am watching a movie and I wanted to continue to hear the movie when I push the home button, as it does when you are playing music. Is it possible to do this?

new clothes
Posted Tuesday March 23 2010, 12:56 pm
I'm an athletic 120lbs.
I want some new stuff for summer. My style is a mix of casual with boho accessories (leather and woven bracelets, long necklaces, belts).
Example: hollister/abercrombie/ Am.Eagle skinny jeans, graphic tee (usually some sort of artsy print), two leather bracelets, 3 rings, a long necklace (my favorite is one that has a boat wheel, an anchor, and a whistle), and converses (of various colors).
I don't do florals...ever. Or bows, ribbons or lace, or orange.
I'm also looking for a bag, like a small hobo. Not a big one, I'm not all that wide and i could hide behind my last hobo bag.

Why do people eat a lot of fish & seafood during Lent?
Posted Monday March 22 2010, 11:11 pm
I have seen a lot of commercials recently with fish this and fish that. I know McDonald's had a special on their filet-o-fish sandwiches and meals and Wendy's had a new fish sandwich they introduced. A lot of places here started having fish specials on certain days of the week. Why is this a common practice? I don't understand what eating fish has to do with Lent?

Why are yellow colored vehicles not popular?
Posted Monday March 22 2010, 11:05 pm
Why do people hardly ever buy new bright-yellow cars? In my graphic arts design class we were discussing how yellow on black has the biggest contrast or whatever. So, I got to thinking...why do people NOT like bright yellow cars? It sounds like they'd look the best agains the black asphalt road...
I guess my question is about your personal preference. Do you like the bright yellow cars? Why or why not? THANKS!

Writing dialogue
Posted Monday March 22 2010, 3:41 pm
Hello everyone.
I have a question about writing dialogue in fiction. What I can't seem to find on the net are the rules for how to show that two people are communicating with each other in writing.
Say your two characters are chatting via an instant messenger. Is it treated like normal dialogue? Also, what sort of tag would one use... would it be "he said" or "he wrote" or something totally different?
Any help would be much appreciated :)

Watched a movie with U.S. Army in it...what does Alpha mean?
Posted Monday March 22 2010, 2:43 am
I went to the theatre and watch the Green Zone movie last week with my boyfriend. In the movie, they started to panic and call off some information to each other about what they were after. During it, they kept saying things like Alpha Bravo and Zooloo (or zulu or zuloo or HOWEVER you would spell it). Are these army slang for location or something? I couldn't figure out what or who might be Alpha or something so...what did it mean? If it's army talk for something then can somebody tell me more army words just for future reference? THANKSSS

Why is green beer green?
Posted Monday March 22 2010, 2:34 am
I know this is probably the dumbest question ever but on St. Patrick's Day everybody drinks GREEN colored beer. Most people actually seem to call it green beer but I don't know the particular brand it might be. Anyway, my real question is actually WHY is it green? Other than this certain green beer served on St. Patrick's Day I've never seen a green colored alcoholic beverage. Is it just a brand of beer that adds green food coloring to their drink? Insight, please?

Why should I take a guy when I go car shopping?
Posted Monday March 22 2010, 2:08 am
I am going to go buy my first car with the money I've been saving up and my dad insists that I take him with me for a "better" deal. I kept telling him that they're going to give me a fair deal just like they give everybody else REGARDLESS OF GENDER and that I can go alone if I want to. He keeps saying how the salesman will see I'm a woman and will shoot the price up and that I won't know what to look for under the hood or during the test drive. I think I will know if something doesn't sound right or doesn't work though.
Why should I take a man along to a car dealership anyway? I just don't get his point. I think he's making too big of a deal out of this? I don't think they're going to say, "Hey! It's a ...

What are some legit coupon sites?
Posted Monday March 22 2010, 1:57 am
I started clipping coupons from the sunday papers and find myself really enjoying the savings. My problem is now that I've started to look online for them I'm finding a lot of fake coupons. I took one that I printed off of the computer last week to the grocery store and the cashier said it wasn't a real coupon because of a fake address on it and that the store itself couldn't even redeem it for what it claims to be worth. It made sense to me and, since then, I've found a lot of people saying how many online coupons are fakes.
I don't want to take fake copies of coupons into the stores and go through that embarrassment again. Anybody know some REAL internet coupon sites I can get coupons from for the grocery store?

Are unicorns based on mythology or were they real at some point?
Posted Monday March 22 2010, 1:45 am
I know mythic creatures like mermaids, dragons, and centaurs were never real and were based on old tales and mythology. I even heard that mermaids were, in reality, manatees or sea-cows.
What I'm curious about is if UNICORNS are actually real? I mean, it doesn't sound too out-of-the-ordinary to me. Lots of creatues have horns on their heads and there are many creatures with skull deformaties. I was even thinking that unicorns might have just been a mutation of the horse that people eventually killed to extinction.
Unicorns: Real?

Is there a third Twilight movie?
Posted Monday March 22 2010, 1:34 am
My friend said she went to the movies over the weekend and saw the preview to the newest upcoming Twilight movie. I haven't read the books or anything (my mom won't let me) so I don't know if the "series" has been finished but is there a third movie coming out based on the books by Stephenie Meyer? When would it be showing? And where can I see the trailer or preview to the newest Twilight movie?

Is it possible for a black person to naturally have blue eyes?
Posted Monday March 22 2010, 1:25 am
I was talking with a teacher of mine about genetics and she said that true African descendants always have brown eyes. I told her that I've seen many African-Americans with blue eyes though! She suggested that both of the person's parents were not black (like one was black and the other was white/caucasian) if the eyes were any other color than brown. She also said that contacts change the eye color and that may be why I've noticed "so many" dark-skinned people with light colored eyes (and, yes, I know about contacts...just saying her point).
So, is it really possible for a dark person to have blue eyes or some other light colored eyes (like green)?

getting respect back
Posted Sunday March 21 2010, 1:37 pm
How do I get the respect someone had for me back? I've been hooking up with this guy for about five months now, and first three months were good, but then all of a sudden he began treating me like shit, and in front of other people too. It has been getting better the past month, but I need to learn how to stand up for myself. I can't stop hooking up with him.

Both sides of a situation..
Posted Sunday March 21 2010, 1:43 am
You see, I always see both sides of a situation. Which makes having an opinion hard in some cases because I do understand why someone would think both ways. Is this a good thing or bad? What do you think?
