ok...well....i really like this guy...and we've been talking alot on aim lately...and he told me that he wasn't going to the winter ball (which is next week)...but tonight i found ou that he asked someone over the weekend (the 2nd person he asked) and when i found out i asked him what was new....he is the sweetest person i've ever met, he gives me Godly advice, he seems like he has it all together...and he doesn't want a girlfriend in high school, but i REALLY like him, he is so nice and it really seems like he cares...but he told my friends that we're just friends, kind of like just classmates, and that we're not too close...i wasn't thinking he was going to ask me, but what does this mean, does it mean that he doesn't like me at all (were not that close) i feel like weve gotten to know each other pretty well, but what should i do, i really have no idea! please help me with what i should do =*(
Omg...please answer?
believe it or not but you don't know each other pretty well. you're looking at the public personality of someone. see there's two sides of people: public and private. sure you see him everyday but the fact is you don't know him as well as you think. it's carma. "we're just friends" is slang for "i like you but i'm not ready to give in". don't persue him. just let him cave in.
Reply:He's not into you... Otherwise he would of asked you... Sorry
Reply:you should not even worry about it you will find some one more special i hope maybe in time to go to the ball with and its his loss anyway
Reply:y not start off by telling him what u juz told us all........and asking him to the ball with you....
Reply:well sadly, right now he doesnt like you, thats obvious
just try to be better friends with him, dont try to make a more than friends relationship right now, just get to be his buddy
Reply:If he said you're just friends and he asked someone else to the dance, there's your answer. Don't take it too personally, there's always going to be someone you like that doesn't like you back, it's part of being young and single. You'll feel differently when you find someone new to like.
Reply:It sounds like he pretty much told how it is. He likes you but only as a friend. %26amp; as hard as it may seem, you are going to have to accept that. I remember what it is like to like someone so much just to be called friend, but a guy that gives godly advice, is worth keeping in your life, even if it is just as friends. Broken hearts heal, %26amp; keep your chin up, you never know when %26amp; if his feelings will change for the better.
Reply:There's nothing you can do really..........The dude just sees you as his friend. What more do you want to be explained? He said that you are his friend.........like classmate.........you are not close.
Stop being so flustered. You might get hurt. Try to find someone is more than willing to go with you and that you like. You will have more fun. Don't settle for this dude.........honey, you will get hurt.
Reply:Sounds like he really cherishes your FRIENDSHIP, and that's all it is to him.
Reply:Wait till you turn 17 to date.
Reply:You are all over the place with that question. The guy says he isn't going to the dance but has asked 2 people? He doesn't want a girlfriend but you're worried whether or not he likes you? Major indications: He tells your friends that you're just friends and he hasn't asked you to the winter ball. Find a guy who isn't so confusing. Know who you are and what you want, then find a guy you like who knows who he is and wants you. Dating shouldn't be so complicated. Good luck.
Reply:I think that he thinks that your just friends and that when he said that you weren't that close he meant that you weren't dating.
Reply:right now.. he just want to be your friend..
nothing else.. nothing more..
what should you do? absolutely nothing..
you can still be arround as his friend..
or else you can risk ur friendship..
Reply:Next week, you'll like some other guy, like, REALLY, a lot, and this current sweetie pie will fade quickly into the abyss that is your 16-yr-old memory. I'm 34, and when I was 16, I was this guy you're talking about -- man, am I soooo glad I never had an "official" girlfriend in high school. This was the advice I gave my now 24-yr-old sister when she was in high school -- play the field. That doesn't mean have sex with a cast of characters -- it just means don't sweat not being asked to the Winter Ball. Next month, there's another dance.

Some things are so precious its so very hard to say until anothers judgement means a bitter parting day, and now through winters icy chill it's you my darling i think of still, though ice and snow conspire to chill your warmth and love they never will and just as the spring will dawn anew, with sweet spring flowers struggling through, I'll bid this place no fond adue to take my rightful placed to be with you. Is this a famous poem, have you heard of it and what is the meaning of it? Who's judgement do you think it refers to?

What do you think?
We must live through the dreary winter
If we would value the spring;
And the woods must be cold and silent
Before the robins sing.
The flowers must be buried in darkness
Before they can bud and bloom,
And the sweetest, warmest sunshine
Comes after the storm and gloom.
What do you think is a life message from this poem?
Do you know the meaning of this poem?
What do you think?
Life message: For anything in this life to be good, we must all go through hard times to appreciate the good times. If life were all rosey and cheery and spring time all year round, we wouldn't know it was good, and it would simply be mundane and plain and boring. But when we go through a hard time, a wintery time in our life, when we finally come out, we appreciate the smallest joys of spring.
Reply:For achieving happiness, and appreciate life we must also experience, and deal with the struggles of life.
Reply:Pain is inevitable.
Suffering is optional.
Reply:Accepting life defines accepting death, death means darkness,calamity,tests,and even death itself.Apparently, these are the things an individual undergoes in life which makes him emotionally and mentally strong but most importantly makes and molded him as a human.True happiness resides behind life's tormoils, it depends to a person's prerogative if he will take risk to face and successfully surpass it and feel the worth of life, than suffering from the regret for not doing it or worst not even trying. The message that this poem wants to convey is that sucess and triumph in life is sweeter when you have tasted the sourness of sorrow and sacrifice..........................johnn...
Reply:In order to appreciate or even notice one "thing", you must see the other side.........how do you know youre happy, if you have never been sad.......how great does pride feel, but only if you have felt shame......

HELP! Shakespeare poem...?
TO me, fair Friend, you never can be old,
For as you were when first your eye I eyed
Such seems your beauty still. Three winters' cold
Have from the forests shook three summers' pride;
Three beauteous springs to yellow autumn turn'd 5
In process of the seasons have I seen,
Three April perfumes in three hot Junes burn'd,
Since first I saw you fresh, which yet are green.
Ah! yet doth beauty, like a dial-hand,
Steal from his figure, and no pace perceived; 10
So your sweet hue, which methinks still doth stand,
Hath motion, and mine eye may be deceived:
For fear of which, hear this, thou age unbred,—
Ere you were born, was beauty's summer dead.
"For fear of which, hear this, thou age unbred"
I have asked this questinon many times now, but I keep getting different explainations on what this line means.
So who is he talking to?
Unbred? not born yet? is yhis what it means? is so, then who?
English is not my mother tounge.
HELP! Shakespeare poem...?
I believe he is saying that he believes that his friend is still as beautiful as he was when he first saw him three years ago (li 1 - 8); however, he recognizes that beauty may fade without him ever noticing (li 9 - 12). So, "for fear of which" (meaning, he's afraid it might be true that he can't tell that his friend is in fact aging), he addresses those to come - those whose ages have not yet been bred, or concieved - and says that before they are ever born, beauty has failed, i.e. that his friend was most beautiful and they will never get to see it.
Reply:It's Sonnet 104 by Shakespeare. He's not talking to anyone in particular, but to people of the future in general. These are people who haven't been "bred" yet, and therefore don't yet exist.
The link below has a "translation" of the sonnet into contemporary English. Hope that helps!

Why the sudden weight gain in a foreign country??
Before moving to this new country I was 5'2'' and normally between 115-120 lbs. I ate what I wanted, but was running 4-5 times a week...nothing drastic, just outside or on a treadmill until I got tired. I just moved to a new country where it is cold, and underdeveloped and now have no gym and little opportunity for physcial activity (though I try with my workout dvd's,) I am a vegetarian and eat really healthy here (when it is available, sometimes I find myself eating only apples for my fruit intake because it's all I can find!), but am still gaining weight! I've cut back on my calories, and I cut out sweets. Still, no luck...I can't explain it! Any ideas? I think I'll be fine once it warms up and I can run again, but until then I need advice, there are still a good 3 months of winter left here, and I don't want to get so far gone that it takes me a year to slim back down! Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Why the sudden weight gain in a foreign country??
Its this change of environment. Are you sleeping well. That does affect your weight. Also some fruits are too high in sugar. Well I know I cant take more than 1 apple a day. Your fibre intake too might be low.
Get a lot more vegetable and see what happens. Its difficult, I know.
Reply:maybe it's the temperature. Cold temperature makes it hard to sweat a lot. How bout more water?

How does one choose a quality beer that tastes good?
I went to the grocery store tonight and looked at all the different beers they had to choose from. I'm not talking about the general beers that most know of. I am referring to the high quality beers from all different parts of the world. It was very difficult for me to decide on one beer out of all the different ones. It's sort of like choosing a fine wine I suppose. What are the main differences between gourmet beers to look for? I like the less thick, lighter, sweeter beers, not the heavy stout bitter ones. Does anyone have any reccommendations on how to choose a good beer? Tonight I took a gamble and went with Heavy Seas' "Winter Storm" ale. It's a bit strong for my tastes, but it has a nice kick. Any help would be appreciated.
How does one choose a quality beer that tastes good?
I used to spend an hour picking out a beer, I completely understand where you are coming from.
What I used to do:
1. Stand in the aisle look like an idiot
2. Finally just ask myself what type of beer I was in the mood for.
3. Pick beer from above category at random.
What I do know:
1. Stand in the beer aisle look like an idiot.
2. Whip out my blackberry and cruise over to http://beeradvocate.com
3. Read reviews and look at ratings.
PS. I used to love going to the Winking Lizard when I lived in Cleveland. They just got a mention on http://www.whysoserious.com/ the Dark Knight/Joker web page. And I personally have tried to limit my trips to ratebeer.com as of late. I've done several side by side comparisons between BA and RB.. I've found that RB has become too snobby as of late.
Reply:beeradvocate.com is a good website to look at. Also try ratebeer.com, people from all over the world come to this site to rate beers, you can find any beer on there and many different descriptions of the beer. It will also have a rating, anywhere from 1 percentile to 100 percentile. The funny thing is, the most well known beers (Budweiser, Miller, Coors) have the worst rating. People actually call them "Drain Pours", as in pour it down the drain and don't drink it.

The best way to choose a quality beer that tastes good is to learn more about beer and drink more beer. Find a brewery or brew pub, preferably one that offers tours. Take the tour, listen to the information they give you and ask questions. After the tour taste a variety of their beers and ask more questions. Also, tours tend to be very inexpensive ($3-$5) or free.
Then, find another brewery or brew pub and do it again*. And again. Practice makes perfect.
Attend a local beer festival. http://www.beerfestivals.org/ Sample everything and ask the brewery reps questions.
Finally, find a good liquor store with a knowledgeable staff that likes beer.
*I have found this is very easy in Milwaukee, WI and Denver/Fort Collins, CO. Your mileage may vary.
Reply:It sounds like you would probably enjoy a hefenweizen. Its a little sweeter with a himt of lemon or orange. You would probably want to stay away from lagers, porters, IPAs, stouts, etc. I sometimes enjoy hefenweizens (I'm not really into sweet beers), but I stay away from German Hefenweizens because they tend to taste like bologna. If you like sweet, you can also go for a Belgium beer, which is sweet but still has a strong beer flavor. You can also go for a belgium Lambic. Usually these beers are very sour, but often have sugar added. Try Lindemans Lambic which is sweet, sour, crisp, and fruity. It is still a beer. not a wine cooler.

I am on a diet. Is it okay to eat honey?
I am on a diet and have cut out all sweets, sugar. Is it okay to eat honey? Does it metabolize into fat? I know it is 70 calories per tablespoon, and each has 15 grams of sugars, and I know bears eat honey to get fat for winter... but is it bad to consume a lot of honey when on a diet? By the way, the honey I have is raw, uncooked and unstrained, right from the hive.
I am on a diet. Is it okay to eat honey?
The sugar in honey metabolizes the same as sugar from any other source. It is no better or worse to use honey as a sweetener than to use sugar. The processing (or lack thereof) is immaterial.

There is no denying this poem needs serious help!...?
Carried away
On the winds of time
To dance
With the song of the swallow
On the words of forever.
To glide
As shimmering moonlight
On the black waters
Of memory
And whisper through air
As the sweet perfume
That clings
To the bud of a rose.
Wrapping the senses in radiant beauty
To be left to struggle
`Gainst blackened thorns
When it fades
At winters gate.
Ensnared for life
In the piercing grasp
While all around
Dance echoes
Of lost love.
A cry of pain rebounding
In the valley
A wolfs lament
To the ailing orb of loss.
A shadow stretches on
Past all deceasing
And sings the song
That never shall be sung.
The rhythm needs help. I tried to do that myself and failed. And the end... If anyone has a sugestion on that, PLEASE SHARE! Regarding the poem itself, comment and tell me what it needs to make it bearable. It might have potential, but if you cannot help me with it, it will not. Blech.
Thanks.
There is no denying this poem needs serious help!...?
This is actually quite nice. It does not need serious help, just a little fine tuning. When you write in free verse, it is probably best to avoid using archaic terms, like `Gainst. Against would do as well and blend better with your style.
You should add an apostrophe to wolfs.
Read this poem aloud. Without punctuation, it is difficult to read this aloud because there are no natural places to break. This appears to be two very long sentences. Try breaking it up, creating sentences that convey complete thoughts, and allowing the reader to grasp those thoughts separately.
You have a little work to do on this, but not much. Preserve as much of your original as possible during your rewriting process.
Well done, so far. I would like to see your changes.
Reply:Don't change it. Rhyme or not, it's extremely good. It flows well, and the description is very very good. But when it says "Wrapping the senses in radiant beauty," I find it would be a tad better if it were a few words in a phrase. Such as:
Wrapping the senses
In radian beauty
I find that would work better than it all together. Keep writing, i enjoyed this piece. :]
Reply:I'm denying it.
Fine tuning and serious help are a world apart, darling O head. Listen to the people and their suggestions. Because I agree with them to the ends of the earth and beyond.
Reply:Poetry is art. Let it be.

Is my poem okay or is it just another cliche love poem?
The scarlet winds of springtime
breathes life into these frozen wings of winter.
Oh, how these once icy tears
used to weep through my eyes!
But now I know no sorrow;
all my troubles melt away.
For into your open arms of warmth,
a smile says, I'll stay.
Hey, butterfly. Butterfly, flutter by
and draw a rainbow for these gracious skies.
No troubled cloud is able to cry
for you, butterfly.
So fly with me through the summer and the fall
when those lazy leaves can day-dream
while our two souls soar on the trickling breeze
through the troughs and trees.
And all our thoughtless troubles
will be a thousand miles away.
And i'll be able to open my wings and fly
with your sweetest smiles that say,
Hey, butterfly. Butterfly, flutter by
and draw a rainbow for these gracious skies.
My troubled clouds won't cry a touch of rain
for you fly with so much love, little butterfly.
Is my poem okay or is it just another cliche love poem?
The only part I found to be overly cliche is the second stanza. I like the sort of refrain of the poem. I particularly like the line, "Hey butterfly. Butterfly, flutter by." I just find it really neat.

Erin and the Reaper
It was a cold winters night. Erin had just finished writing her fan-fiction. It was thundering and lightning.The power went out then Erin got scared so she ran upstairs to her room.
"Mom!" she yelled, "Can you bring me a flashlight?!" Erin lay down on her bed trying to make herself tired.
Erin's mom opened the door, "Here you go sweet heart." she walked over to Erin. "Ya know," Erin knew she was going to say something about her childhood, "When I was you age... I wrote books too. My first one-hundred page was titled The Wretched. It was about--"
"Can I just go to sleep please?" Erin interrupted.
"Sorry." Erin's mom said in a disappointed voice. She walked out of the room with a slouch and closed the door.
~~~
An hour later Erin had just gotten to sleep when she felt a breeze that woke her up. She opened her eyes. Above her was a floating man in a robe that looked rotted. He moved very majestically but she couldn't see his face.
"Who are you?" Erin whispered. She was too terrified to speak.
"I..." he said in a low, scratchy voice that made Erin cringe, "I am the Grim Reaper!"
Erin rolled out her bed and onto the floor. She looked out of the window and Charles (her boyfriend) was outside with a rock. He threw it and it hit the Grim Reaper in the head. "Jump out!" Charles yelled.
She jumped just before the Grim Reaper got up. Erin landed on Charles but they quickly got up and started running.
"We have to get to the Brothers Grimm building." Charles said.
"I've never heard of it in my life." Erin grabbed Charles's hand and they were in front of the building. "I don't remember that being there." Erin said
Do you like this little part of my book?
I think that the beginning needs more detail.
Give us some describing words about her surroundings.
Is she in her parent's room?
Is she in the den?
Living room?
Hotel lobby?
Toilet room of a Trucker's stop?
We have no way of knowing.
Instead of "she ran upstairs to her room." You could say somehting like "bounded upstairs" or "shot through the dark"
I would just suggest to being more descriptive.
Reply:Well overall its an interesting concept. but your writng has room to be improved i give it a six because lines like my boyfriend charles hit him in the head with a rock, and erin got scared, aren't very interesting or descriptive what are the chances charles will be there? Or hit the grim reaper with a rock. Brothers grimm building??
i am a writer. so here an excerpt from my first chapter a really long one.
CHAPTER ONE - TRAINING
“Listen now, my apprentice, you must relax. Listen,”
Where I sat was familiar, a dimly lit, cold, empty space. A pungent smell wavered in the room, making the inside of my nose burn. The walls had clearly been carved out many years ago, considering the crumbling stone and damp mossy feel. The vibe exerting itself was depressing and I sat quietly, patiently in the center of the chamber.
“You must learn, my apprentice, pain. There is no pain here, but you must learn,” Elder Pluyuut spoke in a soft and soothing voice. In his attempt to calm and prepare me it had only made me more apprehensive. He circled my chair watching my odd reactions. Every word he spoke stabbed at me.
Complaining the whole time.
My pained self conscience continued telling me to run, run while I still could. This isn’t meant for you, it whispered in my ear, just as gently as Elder Pluyuut whispered around me. Run, Lea, you still can it taunted me.
Maybe it wasn’t meant for me, but the Elders believed it was. The Elders were always right, which is why there was an abundance of respect for them. Elder Pluyuut quieted down momentarily, letting me breathe.
“Lea, my dearest, are you ready?” He was standing behind me, out of my view. The straight, wooden chair had my slender wrists sealed to it tightly, along with my neck. I tensed up at the words, are you ready? I was not ready, I would never be ready. Ready for what? I had a second of sensibility, and looked at the possibility I was freaking out over nothing. It was merely a second though, gone in a flash.
I had a sword above my head, the promise I made to the clan, to the elders. At the sound of no the rope would be cut, a sure death. A promise broken.
But was death worse the pain I might endure?
“Lea, I said are you ready?” impatience lined his sensitive tone.
“No, I’m not, “I whispered, inaudible. My skin crawled with the thought of what was to come; I bit down on my lip, hard. I had to keep myself from screaming out in fear. Elder Pluyuut glided back into view on my right side. I shot a glance over at him trying desperately to figure out what he was thinking. Panic was caked visibly in my expression. His hard face scanned the floor, as if the words he was looking for were scattered on the stone. As his dried lips parted I held my breath.
“Congratulations, my novice,” Elder Pluyuut nodded slowly, shutting his charcoal eyes, “you have no need for my teaching today.” I looked back at him, no need? My mouth dropped open. Relieved and astonished, I started to cry, but I had no reason to be blubbering. Crying was for those who had been hurt, and I’d been nothing more than threatened with pain. I was in perfect health. I should save my tears for someone who needed them, someone who deserved them. Yet, with every drop the pressure was lifted off my shoulders.
I brushed the tears off of my rosy cheeks. My throat was sore from keeping it all in so long; with one last yelp I was finished.
My deep blue eyes lingered in his, questioning. Elder Pluyuut winced quickly and sighed, the face of my mentor was overly scarred, even compared to Jaela. He looked up again from the dark floor. I searched his exterior for his thoughts again, a futile attempt.
He could hide his emotions perfectly, a skill that must be helpful. A skill I wished I had.
“Leandra, I have tried to teach you to accept and endure pain.”
“But,” He looked away again, shaking his head, obviously dumbfounded by whatever I’d done now, “You caused yourself pain. You have taught yourself Lea, to accept it and I’ve taught you all that I could. You will surely figure out the rest of it. One more week Lea, no more, no less. I cannot train you any further. There’s only one question. Are you ready?” He turned around to face me, eyes suddenly glistening red.
“Are you ready yet?” Jaela whined from the kitchen. I sat up abruptly in my bed, my breathing uneven. I sighed, happy to be awake, and wiped the sweat off my creased brow. I looked around, my same bland, wooden walls were in place, my bed was creaking as usual and I still had my locket slung around my neck. It was a memory, just a dream.
I flipped my feet onto the floor.
Reply:i'd say.. around a five?
i don't want to be too harsh especially since my writing sucks, but it seems a lot like you got some of it off goosebumps, or r l stine books. maybe that's just a coincedence, and i think it's good, but it could be better, like the writing part, not the plot.
when you're done writing the whole thing, read over it, because chance are, by the time you're done the book, your writing will have improved and you'll look over the first parts and think how weak it is compared to your newer writing style.
my writing is crap, though i try :(
here's a little excerpt:
The only memory Yale Campbell could recall from her childhood, was eating dirt when she was four. It was a dare from Nate Winchester, and she never backed down on a dare. After several mouthfuls of dirt, her stomach gave way and she began puking it all up. Nate held her hair back so she wouldn’t get vomit all over it and gave her his only juice box. He apologized for making her do that, but she didn’t mind. She’d done it because her best friend asked her to and she’d do anything for him.
if i was harsh, sorry, but i hope my criticism helps out.
just be a little more descriptive and use a lot of variations for commonly used words like said.
Reply:Err... I'd give it a six.
You could have used more description, it sound similar to the Grim adventures of Billy and Mandy. Expand your vocabulary a bit. The beginning, the most important part, wasn't interesting. You should include more drama.
Here's a bit edit:
An hour later Erin had just gotten to sleep when she felt a breeze that woke her up. She looked at the window and saw it closed. she tucked into her bed. She heard a sound, nothing was moving. Erin hesitantly looked up, she saw an floating object of some sort.
After a moment she realized it was someone in a black robe- like the villains she saw in the movies, she tried to see his face. She couldn't, the man looked down as if he was wearing a sinister smile.
Erin got out of her bed and held her lamp steady. "Who-" Erin gulped, she was shaking harshly. "Who are you?" she asked in a frightened voice. The man floated majestically, all that Erin could hear was an omnious laugh,

She jumped just before the Grim Reaper got up. Erin landed on Charles but they quickly got up and started running.
"We have to get to the Brothers Grimm building." Charles said.
"I've never heard of it in my life." Erin grabbed Charles's hand and they were in front of the building. "I don't remember that being there." Erin said
Do you like this little part of my book?
I think that the beginning needs more detail.
Give us some describing words about her surroundings.
Is she in her parent's room?
Is she in the den?
Living room?
Hotel lobby?
Toilet room of a Trucker's stop?
We have no way of knowing.
Instead of "she ran upstairs to her room." You could say somehting like "bounded upstairs" or "shot through the dark"
I would just suggest to being more descriptive.
Reply:Well overall its an interesting concept. but your writng has room to be improved i give it a six because lines like my boyfriend charles hit him in the head with a rock, and erin got scared, aren't very interesting or descriptive what are the chances charles will be there? Or hit the grim reaper with a rock. Brothers grimm building??
i am a writer. so here an excerpt from my first chapter a really long one.
CHAPTER ONE - TRAINING
“Listen now, my apprentice, you must relax. Listen,”
Where I sat was familiar, a dimly lit, cold, empty space. A pungent smell wavered in the room, making the inside of my nose burn. The walls had clearly been carved out many years ago, considering the crumbling stone and damp mossy feel. The vibe exerting itself was depressing and I sat quietly, patiently in the center of the chamber.
“You must learn, my apprentice, pain. There is no pain here, but you must learn,” Elder Pluyuut spoke in a soft and soothing voice. In his attempt to calm and prepare me it had only made me more apprehensive. He circled my chair watching my odd reactions. Every word he spoke stabbed at me.
Complaining the whole time.
My pained self conscience continued telling me to run, run while I still could. This isn’t meant for you, it whispered in my ear, just as gently as Elder Pluyuut whispered around me. Run, Lea, you still can it taunted me.
Maybe it wasn’t meant for me, but the Elders believed it was. The Elders were always right, which is why there was an abundance of respect for them. Elder Pluyuut quieted down momentarily, letting me breathe.
“Lea, my dearest, are you ready?” He was standing behind me, out of my view. The straight, wooden chair had my slender wrists sealed to it tightly, along with my neck. I tensed up at the words, are you ready? I was not ready, I would never be ready. Ready for what? I had a second of sensibility, and looked at the possibility I was freaking out over nothing. It was merely a second though, gone in a flash.
I had a sword above my head, the promise I made to the clan, to the elders. At the sound of no the rope would be cut, a sure death. A promise broken.
But was death worse the pain I might endure?
“Lea, I said are you ready?” impatience lined his sensitive tone.
“No, I’m not, “I whispered, inaudible. My skin crawled with the thought of what was to come; I bit down on my lip, hard. I had to keep myself from screaming out in fear. Elder Pluyuut glided back into view on my right side. I shot a glance over at him trying desperately to figure out what he was thinking. Panic was caked visibly in my expression. His hard face scanned the floor, as if the words he was looking for were scattered on the stone. As his dried lips parted I held my breath.
“Congratulations, my novice,” Elder Pluyuut nodded slowly, shutting his charcoal eyes, “you have no need for my teaching today.” I looked back at him, no need? My mouth dropped open. Relieved and astonished, I started to cry, but I had no reason to be blubbering. Crying was for those who had been hurt, and I’d been nothing more than threatened with pain. I was in perfect health. I should save my tears for someone who needed them, someone who deserved them. Yet, with every drop the pressure was lifted off my shoulders.
I brushed the tears off of my rosy cheeks. My throat was sore from keeping it all in so long; with one last yelp I was finished.
My deep blue eyes lingered in his, questioning. Elder Pluyuut winced quickly and sighed, the face of my mentor was overly scarred, even compared to Jaela. He looked up again from the dark floor. I searched his exterior for his thoughts again, a futile attempt.
He could hide his emotions perfectly, a skill that must be helpful. A skill I wished I had.
“Leandra, I have tried to teach you to accept and endure pain.”
“But,” He looked away again, shaking his head, obviously dumbfounded by whatever I’d done now, “You caused yourself pain. You have taught yourself Lea, to accept it and I’ve taught you all that I could. You will surely figure out the rest of it. One more week Lea, no more, no less. I cannot train you any further. There’s only one question. Are you ready?” He turned around to face me, eyes suddenly glistening red.
“Are you ready yet?” Jaela whined from the kitchen. I sat up abruptly in my bed, my breathing uneven. I sighed, happy to be awake, and wiped the sweat off my creased brow. I looked around, my same bland, wooden walls were in place, my bed was creaking as usual and I still had my locket slung around my neck. It was a memory, just a dream.
I flipped my feet onto the floor.
Reply:i'd say.. around a five?
i don't want to be too harsh especially since my writing sucks, but it seems a lot like you got some of it off goosebumps, or r l stine books. maybe that's just a coincedence, and i think it's good, but it could be better, like the writing part, not the plot.
when you're done writing the whole thing, read over it, because chance are, by the time you're done the book, your writing will have improved and you'll look over the first parts and think how weak it is compared to your newer writing style.
my writing is crap, though i try :(
here's a little excerpt:
The only memory Yale Campbell could recall from her childhood, was eating dirt when she was four. It was a dare from Nate Winchester, and she never backed down on a dare. After several mouthfuls of dirt, her stomach gave way and she began puking it all up. Nate held her hair back so she wouldn’t get vomit all over it and gave her his only juice box. He apologized for making her do that, but she didn’t mind. She’d done it because her best friend asked her to and she’d do anything for him.
if i was harsh, sorry, but i hope my criticism helps out.
just be a little more descriptive and use a lot of variations for commonly used words like said.
Reply:Err... I'd give it a six.
You could have used more description, it sound similar to the Grim adventures of Billy and Mandy. Expand your vocabulary a bit. The beginning, the most important part, wasn't interesting. You should include more drama.
Here's a bit edit:
An hour later Erin had just gotten to sleep when she felt a breeze that woke her up. She looked at the window and saw it closed. she tucked into her bed. She heard a sound, nothing was moving. Erin hesitantly looked up, she saw an floating object of some sort.
After a moment she realized it was someone in a black robe- like the villains she saw in the movies, she tried to see his face. She couldn't, the man looked down as if he was wearing a sinister smile.
Erin got out of her bed and held her lamp steady. "Who-" Erin gulped, she was shaking harshly. "Who are you?" she asked in a frightened voice. The man floated majestically, all that Erin could hear was an omnious laugh,

Losing Belly Fat?
So I'm 18 years old, and gained a bit of a belly from Winter and sitting in the house.
Spring/Summer/Fall I'm very active, and I usually lose it off. However, I'm trying to get a 6 pack.
So for the past month or so I've been running a mile, doing a mild workout for about 20 minutes, then drinking a protein shake. I've been gaining muscle and I've lost quite a bit of belly fat and some off my waistline.
I eat healthy, drink a lot of water, and I don't eat sweets/junk or drink pop.
I am trying to lose it a bit faster. What would you recommend? Running more?
Losing Belly Fat?
When we want to get rid of body fat, there is no way to specifically burn fat from one part of the body. Doing situps won't burn the fat that is covering your abs and doing tricep extensions won't get rid of the fat that is covering your triceps. The only thing you can do is lose weight all around and eventually the problem area will also improve. The way to burn fat is through a calorie restricted diet in conjunction with an exercise routine that will burn calories. Activities that burn calories include running, biking, swimming and other high intensity activities.
Guide to Reducing Body Fat - http://straighthealth.com/pages/guides/r...
Reply:Dairy, eggs, corn, peanuts, and yeast if you take these foods away for 7 days you will lose weight automatically.
Consume fewer calories than are needed to maintain the body’s weight at the normal level of activity.
Consume the number of calories needed to maintain the body’s weight but increase activity.
Consume fewer calories and increase activity. Calories measure the fuel value, or heat energy, provided by food for body functions. In order to lose one pound, a person must consume 3,500 fewer calories.
Reply:Everyone thinks that high intense exercises help burn body fat. This can be true if you enjoy working out 5 hrs+ a day. Other than that i recommend you get on that tredmill set the MPH at 3.0 and set the incline around 7.5-8.0. you want to get your heart rate around 130 for about 30-40 mins a day. this is the specific "Fat Burning Zone". You will notice a significant difference if you do this for a peroid of time

I'm really worried!!! HELP?
I think I might be pregnant. When did everyone else start experiencing symptoms of pregnancy? I started feeling "different" 7 days after I had unprotected sex on February 10 (last day of my last period). I got a dull headache a week after sex in the back of my head, that still hasn't gone away. Now I have nausea but no vomiting, dizziness, low back pain, pressure/tugging feeling in lower abdomen, some abdominal cramping, very tired, craving sweets when I used to crave salts, not being able to be around certain smells and foods that I used to love, moodiness/irritability, memory problems, and I'm having sinus infection symptoms as well but I usually only get sinus infections after a week or so of having really bad allergies and I haven't had bad allergies all winter. Is it too early to be feeling all of these symptoms ?? How likely is it for me to get pregnant on the last day of my period?? When should a home pregnancy test show positive if I'm really pregnant?
I'm really worried!!! HELP?
It is a bit early to be feeling some of these symptoms. I'm in that horrible waiting game. If you had unprotected sex during your ovulation, 11-16 days after your period, then there is a high chance. Since it was the last day of your period, you have a smaller chance of being pregnant. I have nausea, cramping, and very sore breasts. I have had my period since I had sex, so that made me feel a bit better.
If you are pregnant, wait until 3 days after your missed period. You will deffinantly be producing enough HCG to show up positive on a test.
Reply:it does sound like you are freaking yourself out here...you ovulate on or around the 14th day of your cycle, but remember...sperm can live inside you for up to 4 or 5 days after sex. there is no sure-fire way to know untill you take a test, but try not to stress until you know for sure. you can take a early -response test 5 days before your expected period date, but those are not always very accurate. they are measuring the hcg level (pregnancy hormone) in your body, and the earlier it is, the lower the hormone level, so i would wait till you actually miss your period to take a DECICIVE test. you would hate to take it too early and have a false negative or positive. gl.
Reply:Typically you ovulate on around the 14th-16th day of your cycle (day 1 is the day you start your period) It is possible, but that is the norm, and you can only get prego when u are ovulating. You could take a test now, just get the Early Response ones...it has been 17 days since you had sex.
Reply:IT MAY BE TO SOON FOR A HOME TEST BUT YOU CAN TRY AN EPT TEST OVER THE COUNTER .THEY ARE THE BEST.IF IT SHOWS NEGATIVE YOU NEED TO SEE A DOCTOR.SOMETHING SERIOUS MAY BE WRONG.I DON'T MEAN TO SCARE YOU .
Reply:i am really sorry for your situation. sorry i am a guy so i cant help you
Reply:Wait until you date of your period if you period has not come yet them take a test...but those are some pregnancy symptoms....but symptoms usually come 2 weeks after you've concived.....
Reply:7 days would be the earliest you'd really feel any symptoms, so it's possible. You could get pregnant on the last day of your period, it just depends on when you ovulated that cycle. If you're starting to have symptoms, you could take a test. If it's negative, give it at least a week before re-testing.
Reply:Take a home pregnancy test. There is no time during your cycle when you are exempt from getting pregnant, and even on the last day of your period, it is very possible. You are describing classic symptoms of pregnancy, but you could also be over-analyzing things and making yourself believe you are experiencing them. You may want to wait until you miss a period before taking a home test. If you're really concerned, see a doctor.
Reply:Sometimes when you are worried about being pregnant, you become extra paranoid that every symptom you have is pointing towards you being pregnant. It's the same concept as if you want a red car, then all of a sudden you start noticing all these red cars. It's just a mind thing. Although I have heard of women *knowing* they were pregnant before they found out.
I would take a test in a few weeks, and then another a week after that (you can take one more a week later just to be extra sure). If they all show up negative, you can breath a little easier.
Reply:take a test 5 days before and after ur next period, or when u expect it. dont forget the second one
Reply:you normally wont show any signs for about a month. your just freaking yourself out. and a test will show about 5 days before your first missed period

Can anyone tell me where to find a large styrofoam box in Kansas?
Here's the deal. My next door neighbors have a cat that is the sweetest thing this side of sugar. However, he's a terrible owner and should not have this cat. He keeps her outside regardless of the weather (and in case you are unaware, it gets really cold and snowy here in the winter and rainy in the spring).
I bought a plastic tote box and cut a hole in it and made a little bed to put inside so at least the poor kitty is out of the elements. However, when it's rainy or the wind is blowing hard with the snow, the inside gets wet.
I have a new design idea, but it would be much easier with a styrofoam box vs hard plastic. Problem? Can't find a stinking styrofoam box.
Any ideas? I've scoured the net already.
Thanks ahead of time!

Youre such a nice person!
I'm doing the same thing as you are, but I haven't had to look for styrofoam yet because we had lots of extra styrofoam insulation just sitting around our basement. I'v made 2 shelters already and am having people put them in their back yards. I live in Canada and I can guarantee you it gets WAY colder here than in Kansas! :) but I think you have a heart of gold.
I'v heard that you can get styrofoam at electronics stores (they wrap tv's in them) and possibly appliance stores (there they wrap fridges in them. But there are tons of ideas for outdoor cat shelters that you can find online.

Reply:I wounder if you could make one out of a litterbox with a lid?
Reply:We have one of the plastic totes too and the outdoor cats use it. Turn the opening away from the wind direction and make sure the box is sheltered next to a bush, this really reduces the amount of moisture that gets inside.
Styrofoam won't last--if you have ANY squirrels in the area they'll be dismantling it as soon as they find it.
If you need a warmer inside, put a box that's just a tad smaller than the inside of the tote, cut a hole in it to match up with the hole in the tote, and stuff folded newspapers under it and around three sides. This reflects heat back. We also put a piece of foam rubber in the bottom of the cardboard box and fold the two towels over it. The cats find this perfect.
Reply:im not sure where, but if you made some sort of house with a door like a doggy door. I have a cat, and we made a house out of wood and covered the wood with carpet. i dont think that styrofoam would work anyways: it can blow away, it wont keep the cat warm and the cat might rip it apart
Reply:don't use styrofoam, if kitty chews on it, she could choke. try something in the pet store, they usually have tons of different things. if you can't do that, try placing the box so that the opening is near a building, not too close. that way the wind will not get around and blow rain in. hard to stop snow tho, because of accumulation. you could cut the hole higher up if you have another box to spare.
Reply:haha.. no one lives in kansas. and plus.. wouldn't toto the dog scare your kitty away?
Reply:Id say your best bet is to but a styrofoam picnic basket thing. You might be able to find one at Homedepot or some where liek that!
Good luck !! :)
Reply:Try going to a UPS store, they might have some.
Or abandon that idea, and get the cat a small doghouse. If you face it away from the wind, and put a warm bed in there, the cat could come and go and stay warm. I'm aware that the wind changes, but there is usually a pretty general direction, or maybe face it towards your house (with space inbetween for the cat to crawl in) so the house blocks most of the wind. Keep it out there, because this will help him in the rain, and this has been a terribly unpredictable winter.
I would just like to say Kansas rules! Lived here my whole life, and while I would like to maybe live in another state when I'm older, my loyalty will always lie here.

Reply:don't use styrofoam, if kitty chews on it, she could choke. try something in the pet store, they usually have tons of different things. if you can't do that, try placing the box so that the opening is near a building, not too close. that way the wind will not get around and blow rain in. hard to stop snow tho, because of accumulation. you could cut the hole higher up if you have another box to spare.
Reply:haha.. no one lives in kansas. and plus.. wouldn't toto the dog scare your kitty away?
Reply:Id say your best bet is to but a styrofoam picnic basket thing. You might be able to find one at Homedepot or some where liek that!
Good luck !! :)
Reply:Try going to a UPS store, they might have some.
Or abandon that idea, and get the cat a small doghouse. If you face it away from the wind, and put a warm bed in there, the cat could come and go and stay warm. I'm aware that the wind changes, but there is usually a pretty general direction, or maybe face it towards your house (with space inbetween for the cat to crawl in) so the house blocks most of the wind. Keep it out there, because this will help him in the rain, and this has been a terribly unpredictable winter.
I would just like to say Kansas rules! Lived here my whole life, and while I would like to maybe live in another state when I'm older, my loyalty will always lie here.
Weight loss advice please...I'm desperate!!!?
Hello
I'm 22, girl, 5'10 and 165lbs, and its all in my thighs and stomach. I don't want to be thin, just a flat stomach.
I'm extremely athletic, snowboarded most of the winter, and at the gym 5-6 times a week for at least an hour, i do both cardio and weights. I kickbox, do a lot of eliptical (can't run cuz i had a leg injury), lots of crunches (reverse, sides), push ups are always a must. I've tried changing up my excerise to make sure my body is not used to it. I feel awesome, and i'm in great shape, i just don't look it.
I've changed my eating habits completely, small meals often, no soda, no chips. I do eat sweets but in moderation, i barely drink. I've done calorie calculations and i'm usually around 1300-1500 calories per day.
Does anyone have any advice for me please? I've been really active for 2 years and haven't even lost a pound. I know if i lost the weight i'd maintain it, is there a diet that i could try or something?
Thanks everyone.

The only think I can suggest is trying to do Interval training when you are doing cardio... you burn 9 times more fat than moderate cardio. Or it could be that you are at your ideal weight and can't lose anymore. If you are really desperate, you should get a check up from a doctor so (s)he can tell you if you need to lose weight
Good luck and congrats on the hard work
Reply:this may seem stupid but it works. welll for a flat stomach suck in your abs and hold and lean forward.

How is my poem from 1-10?
and maybe even leave a comment, if u want.
The scarlet winds of springtime
breathes life into these frozen wings of winter.
Oh, how these once icy tears
used to weep through my eyes!
But now I know no sorrow;
all my troubles melt away.
For into your open arms of warmth,
a smile says, I'll stay.
Hey, butterfly. Butterfly, flutter by
and draw a rainbow for these gracious skies.
No troubled cloud is able to cry
for you, butterfly.
So fly with me through the summer and the fall
when those lazy leaves can day-dream
while our two souls soar on the trickling breeze
through the troughs and trees.
And all our thoughtless troubles
will be a thousand miles away.
And i'll be able to open my wings and fly
with your sweetest smiles that say,
Hey, butterfly. Butterfly, flutter by
and draw a rainbow for these gracious skies.
My troubled clouds won't cry a touch of rain
for you fly with so much love, little butterfly.

It sounds like you just got a whole heap of nice words, and picked any way possible to jam them all into the one poem. Instead of writing out of inspiration and meaning, its more about the words. But you've got the patterning of writing a poem right. All you need is true motivation for the words you choose.

Wenchy female cat--what do I do?
Long story short, a then best friend dumped her 2 cats on me last year (Reesie and Zeppelin). I have a cat of my own (mini-me) who I love to death. He is the sweetest cat ever! Anyway, when I moved in with my boyfriend and his dog, the one female cat (who is not spayed) started turning really mean to my cat. It's gotten to the point that all through the winter, he wouldn't come inside at all. I tried to set him inside, and he would just rip through the house, back out the dog door.
I finally figured out that Reesie (cat that was dumped on me) refuses to share "her" house with him. I tried to take Reesie to the shelter, as she is just downright mean, but they were all full. It's now to the point where mini-me has scratches all over him from getting in fights with raccoons, etc (I assume this is it since we live in the country), and there's nothing I can do to stop this! How can I get Reesie to be nice and get Mini-me to stay inside?
Wenchy female cat--what do I do?
spay spay spay---this will calm the aggression down a bit. All animals act differently in new situations...it could be the stress of moving that has the cats acting up. Start with the spaying though---and while the cat is gone--try to bring the other inside...comfort him and show him that everything is okay. If the female still acts up---keep checking your local no-kill shelters...she may be so stressed that she can't acclimate and needs to be in a one cat family.
Reply:I agree with Casey........SPAY that cat!
Why you didn't have her spayed as soon as she was "dumped" on you, is a mystery. Females are very territorial, and an "unspayed" (intact) female is the WORST!
Do what you have to, to be able to bring your "mini-me" back into the house. He's gonna get himself killed. BTW...you didn't say if he's neutered. I assume he is, or you'd have kittens (with Reesie) by now!
Good luck.............
Reply:get her spayed
Reply:Most of this will disappear if all cats are fixed!!!
Reply:Saw the problem straight away
SHE IS NOT SPAYED !!
Get her done and she should calm down abit.
Reply:what i think u shoud do with ressie is that u shoud put her in a cage (diescent sized) and give her food and u shoud get mini-me by going outsside to comfort her and give her food and pick her up and see what happens
