  • Charles Dickens quote help?

    “Heaven knows we need never be ashamed of our tears, for they are rain upon the blinding dust of earth, overlying out hard hearts. I was better after I had cried than before, -more sorry, more aware of my own ingratitude, more gentle.”

    What does this really mean? Thanks in advance! Best answer goes to whoever explains it well and thoroughly.

  • Tips on improving this poem?

    Please help me come up with a creative title and any tips, comments, likes/dislikes, constructive criticism would be appreciated. I'm in 7th grade and this is an assignment we had to do.

    Born into a world of prejudice and hate,

    I struggled to find my place.

    When it was skin color and gender that determined your fate,

    I wished they’d look beyond my race.

    At home I didn’t belong,

    My dad never understood.

    I tried to stay strong,

    But I didn’t know if I could.

    One day I decided,

    That it was time to leave Dad’s home.

    My life he hadn’t guided,

    Through the streets I’d have to roam.

    Now I was homeless,

    But I called my mother.

    I was a mess,

    But needed love from another.

    Soon I was on my way,

    To my mother’s house I’d go.

    I’d be there to stay,

    The thought just made me glow

    As soon as I got there,

    I was greeted with warmth and love.

    I knew that she would care,

    And this family I’d be a part of.

    Some extra money I wanted to make,

    To show my appreciation.

    This was the lesson of give and take.

    But in choice there was limitation.

    The conductor of a train, I wanted to be,

    For black women it’d never been done.

    I asked my mom and she seemed to agree.

    It would be hard, but worth it if I won.

    I went to the office to apply,

    The lady said she couldn’t see me today.

    Inside I knew this was a lie,

    But to get this job, I’d find a way.

    The next day I was back once more,

    Paperwork she stacked in my hand,

    A better result than I’d had before,

    I was happier than I’d planned.

    Finally, the job was mine,

    My dream had come true.

    I knew that this was sign,

    If a white person could do it, I would do it too.

    I was set up to lead a difficult life,

    The life that came with the color of my skin.

    Along this road came challenges and strife.

    But I knew I could overcome them all and win.

  • High school options, what do I do next?

    I don't know what high school to go to...

    1. I go to a very good public school. Should I continue classes there? Benefits are that I can stay with my friends, but also get a very good education.

    2. Should I attend a private school? They are expensive, but if they really are a great choice, do able. They can definately be an option.

    3. Should I attend regular classes at my high school and then go to an art academy for dance, art, and creative writing? That will be hard work, but I can do it, but would it be helpful in life/college?

    4. I can attend a technical school for medical technology, which will help with becoming an orthodontist. Is that a good choice?

    5. There is always homeschooling, and i can go at my own pace, but i dont know if this is what a good college is looking for?

    6. Should I pay to see someone with my mom and we can decide what I need to do to get into the best college, and what the best choice is?

    Thanks in advance!

  • Where can I buy good quality cheer sneakers?

    Well, I've outgrown my old ones, and they're getting ripped up now. Additionally, my little sister is starting cheer leading this year and will also need cheer sneakers. Where can I buy them? I live in CT and would prefer not to order, it would be nice to try them on first. Sizes would be around 9 in a kids size and 7.5 in womens. Just white sneakers do not work btw. Thank you in advance!!!
