English Diction of a poem
Posted Thursday February 28 2008, 10:03 pm
I ’M nobody! Who are you?
Are you nobody, too?
Then there ’s a pair of us—don’t tell!
They ’d banish us, you know.
How dreary to be somebody! 5
How public, like a frog
To tell your name the livelong day
To an admiring bog!
The above is a poem by Emily Dickinson, and i'm having trouble figuring out the diction of it.
I have that it generally uses sad words, but i'm confused as to what diction is. Can anyone explain it to me please?
THanks so much!

School thinks I'm going out with a celebrity??
Posted Thursday February 28 2008, 9:14 pm
Alright, so a few months ago I met my favourite celebrities for the third time, and now we're sort of acquitances. Definitely not friends, but we're on first name basis and one of them is on my MySpace.
ANYWAY, as a joke I got one of the guys to pose with me to kiss me on the cheek, and then him to kiss me on the cheek in front of 10 journalists.
The journalists just laughed it off, knowing it was a joke. But my school...hm...
My locker got broken into not too long ago, and someone handed in my school diary to the office. It's covered in pictures of me and that celebrity, most of them are innocent (Just smiling and waving to the camera) there's another joke one of him hugging me like a pedo.

cereal box
Posted Tuesday February 26 2008, 2:17 pm
I have to make a cereal box for a school project.
the catch is, the cereal box has to have something to do with morality, conscience, church, Jesus, etc.
the name of the cereal has to sound like a regular cereal. for example: Captain Conscience, Church Charms
I can't use those because other kids in my class are using them so I need some ideas!
I also have to have a slogan and a jingle to go with it so if you have an idea please help me out!
Thanks to everyone who answers

Phylum Rotifera?
Posted Monday February 25 2008, 1:21 pm
This a question for any teachers or scientists out there.
I'm doing a small project on some phylums that my Zoology teacher assigned me. My professor is really helpful and posts links on our school web site to help us with research. Well, there weren't any links for the phylum Rotifera on there. I emailed her and she put up a few more links, but no matter where I look, I cannot find the CORRECT classes that make up the phylum Rotifera!
The web sites I've found all say different classes for that phylum and I don't know which ones are correct!
I figured I'd ask on here to see if anyone knew before I go to my professor for some more help.
Anything?
