  • I need you to make up a word?

    I'm writing a screenplay for Script Frenzy. I have a character, Kai, who is really fun loving and bright and optimistic and she makes up a word to describe preschool aged children (she wants to be a preschool teacher). Then later Mark my protagonist uses this word to describe her.

    The word means:

    -fun

    -beautiful

    -bright

    -confident

    -bubbly

    -enthusiastic

    any ideas are welcome! Thanks!

  • Traveling by plane from Baku, Azerbaijan to DC! advice?

    My poor cat is going to move to Washington DC with us. Which means a 5 hour flight to Frankfurt, a 4 hour lay over there, then a 8 hour flight to Washington DC where we will have temporary housing that allows cats. It's an extremely stressful trip but this is the only way to get her there. We decided since I have such a good bond with her and Baku has so many stray cats she'll be better off with us.

    -I have a soft carrier that she likes and is approved by the airline

    -should I bring food/water/kitty litter? How can she go to the bathroom?

    -Should I giver her catnip/toys in her carrier?

    -Should I buy a harness and leash train her? What type of harness is best?

    -Any tips for preparing her/keeping her calm in the plane?

    Thank!

  • Please help me with this Geometry question?

    so there are a series of triangles that are an englargement of the previous triangle by a scale factor of 1.5. The area of the first triangle is 40. Which triangle will have an area greater than 15000?

    The areas go: 40, 90, 202.5, 455.625. How do I find the triangle with an area greater than 15000 without guessing and checking?

    Thanks :)

  • I'm Beauty in our highschool production and I'm super nervous about kissing beast :S?

    So I'm 14 and beast is 17 but he's not exactly attractive... I literally learned the guy's name at auditions, so we're not exactly close. My friends haven't exactly been encouraging with all the teasing.

    I've only ever kissed one guy before and I'm super nervous about kissing beast on stage, in front of everyone. Any tips? How do I get over the awkwardness? When ever we go over the scene our director hasn't had us kiss. She just says kiss and we go on. Should we practice before the dress rehearsal?

    It's just a peck on the lips but idk I can't get over it :/

  • Some questions about leasing a horse in London?

    Hello all,

    I posted a question like 10 mins ago about riding in London. (i'm moving there this summer) I'm really interested in leasing a horse. I'm a fairly experience rider and would love to ride 3-4 times a week but can't afford lessons. How do you find horses for lease around London? Do you usually have barn chores too when you lease a horse? About how much should a 3 day a week lease cost? Any advice for finding a horse to lease/working out a lease? Thanks!

  • Affordable horse back riding in London?

    Hello all,

    I'm moving to London this summer and am looking into riding. I take lessons and ride for fun now in Azerbaijan. What's the best way to ride a lot without breaking the bank in London? I can't go very far out of the city since I can't drive so ideally I'd like to take the bus/metro to the stable. How can I organize lessons? Is it a good idea to lease a horse? How does that usually work in London? I'd be able to put a couple hours a day at the stable. I'd like to ride 5 times a week or so but could probably do barn chores everyday. What do you recomend?

    btw I'm 15 years old and an intermediate rider. I like dressage and show jumping but I don't show much and just like riding for fun

  • The canary's leg is red like you can see the veins help?

    I'm pet sitting my friends canary and last night before putting her to bed I noticed her leg looked a little darker than usual this morning it is definatly red. You can see the veins really dark and the whole leg is darker than usual. her nails on that leg are shorter than they used to be, so I think they broke somehow. Why is her leg red? What should I do if anything? (She's acting completely normal though. Eating, drinking, bathing as usual chirping and hopping around like normal.)

    Thanks! I don't know a whole lot about canaries but my friend doesn't get back for a couple more weeks and I don't know what to do.

  • How to motivate a stubborn 10 y/o stallion?

    Hello,

    I ride a gorgeous 10 y/o chestnut Karabahk stallion. I'm struggling with him and was hoping someone with experience with stubborn stallions could help. I listed his vices and my struggles 1-8 so if you could advise on any please do thx!

    1. He pops his inside shoulder out and moves to the side while fussing with his head and not listening

    2. He won't walk after I mount (I nudge, then kick, then kick harder, and usually have to kick and smack him with a crop just to get him to walk)

    3. His trot gets really lazy (No amount of leg seems to perk him up)

    4. He shakes his head and slows down when I try to circle him

    5. He dodges around jumps at the last minute

    6. He stops directly after a jump

    7. When I ask for a canter he shoots out and goes super fast and out of control

    8. When a mare's around he rears and can be pretty feisty (no duh)

    I love him but he's a real fighter. Any advice is welcome thanks!

    -I don't find him physically attractive, at all.

  • Can I have this bangs style?

    I really like this bangs style: http://www.imageandstylenews.com/wp-content/upload...

    Right now my bangs are cut pretty much straight across. i wear them as side bangs usually. (they're about 5-6inches long)

    Can they be cut into this style? Can I just blow-dry straighten them into this kind of side sweep?

    Thanks!

    p.s. What other cute mid-length bangs styles do you like?

  • Straightening tips and advice?

    I straighten my whole hair like twice a year and my bangs like 4x. This summer i want to buy a straightener and start straightening my bangs almost everyday. (I have thick curly hair and my bangs NEVER behave curly but look awesome straightened)

    What straightener should I buy? Any tips for straightening bangs? How can I minimize damage to my hair? Is 6x a week way too much to straighten my bangs? My mom kind of disapproves but if I buy it with the cash i make working this summer she's ok with it if I don't harm my hair.

  • My cat was poisoned!?

    Ok. So my indoor/outdoor cat is sick. She's been throwing up and has had diarrhea for 4 days now. The vet gave her some shots and said we had to give her water, salted chicken broth, and yogurt for the next few days. Trouble is, my usual food obsessed cat won't eat or drink anything! I got some syringes and tried to feed her but several chewed up syringes a huge mess later, she still hasn't gotten much. How do you get a cat to eat it? Any other advice for me and my kitty is appreciated too. I think it's from our stupid compounds pesticides (she ate a bird recently which might have bee poisoned) She's gotten better (more active, stronger, getting into trouble again) and she's stopped throwing up etc. but she also hasn't eaten much. help!

  • Information on Meredith Manor?

    I'm looking into going to Meredith Manor when i graduate from High School. To satisfy my parents I'd probably get a Bachelor of Arts with the University of West Virgina/Meredith Manor agreement thing. Has anyone done that program? How was it? Any opinions on the riding master programs?

    I've heared lots of crap about how bad the campus is but right now where I ride, we don't have a riding arena, we jump logs and branches and your lucky to find a stall with a functioning door never the less a nice paint job. Living in an old bus sounds awsome. The facilities honestly don't matter half as much as the horses, instructors, and atmosphere of the school.

    Thanks for any info you can offer!
