Autumn Pumpkins

I'm 15, about 5'3 and 115 lbs. I'm at a healthy weight, but I definetely feel that I could get more toned. I'm somewhat fluffy. My problem is that I haven't really excersized in sooo long that I get winded after like 30 seconds of any physical activity. So my question is, how can I work out for longer/slowly get myself back into shape. Also, I'm not a part of any gym and I don't have a set of weights/a treadmill. So I'll need excercises where these things won't be needed.

Here's the thing, this summer I was hoping to visit my cousins in another state. However.my mom wants me to participate I this three week summer program where they they teach you about our native language (Farsi) the basics about reading, writing, etc. The only thing is, this program is right In the middle of summer, and I really realllllllly what to go see my cousins instead of doing this. I asked my mom if I could skip the program and just visit my family but she won't let me. She says if I don't do the program I can't go. But if I do the program I'll only be able to visit for 2 weeks at most! The main problem is that there are certain events that I want to go to with my cousins, but all of those events take place during the program! (They wanted me to stay for a month to a month and a half) how can I convince her to change her mind?

I'm home alone! My family went out to go see a house but I stayed behind to study fit a test I have tomorrow. It's been a couple of hours and they haven't gottne back yet. I don't have a cell phone and ou house phone isn't working. I have no way of reaching them and I'm really scared...I'm 15 btw.

It's funny how things can change throughout the years

People die, friends lie, you cry.

And how one thing can have such an impact, how one person can leave

such an impression.

How most friendships fail, because most friends bail.

And this has been a long time coming especially when you left me for

the Prettier and more popular crew. But why, I never knew.

What happened to my BFF? What happened to besties for life? It feels

like you went at my heart with a knife.

You weren't there, when I needed you the most. I was there. Through

thick and thin I was there. When my biggest conflict came, you were

busy discussing the quality of your 'hair.'

But I won't hold any grudges we had a Good couple years, I just hope

my next Friend won't leave me for a newer trend. And good times, we'll

know how to spend.

And when these cool kids hang you out to dry, I won't be there to

comfort you when you cry. We could try to reminesce but nothing will

ever be the same since... Since you left, flat out bailed and stuck

our friendship right out in the gutter. Our closeness has sailed, way

down. These conversations are stuttered. When we see each other, our

smiles won't flutter, because our relationship now is a complete

clutter.

I've had juvenile diabetes since I was 8. I'm 14 now and I manage myself very well and all. But one thing that bothers me now, that I didn't pay attention to when I was younger, is other peoples reactions to me testing my blood sugar/taking shots. I have an insulin pump, so I don't take shots anymore, but one time my pump broke and I had to be on shots for a few days until i got a new one. So at school, during lunch I was just sitting at my table, minding my own business. I took out a syring filled with insulin. My friend sees this and kinda freaks out and like moves further and further away from me. Which caught like 3 other friends attention, and they all saw me take my shot. I don't care that they saw me, what I hated was that they didn't HAVE to look at me take it, but they still did. Even though they all couldn't stand the sight of needles. They were like "is it over yet? Is it over yet?" Like, you don't have to ******** look at it! And stop being such a friggen scaredy cat! Im the one taking the shot, not you! Why are you flipping out? Also I hate it when people ask me if it hirts when I test my blood sugar/ take a shot.No, it doesn't, Im used to it, I've been doing this for 6 years...I also hate it when people ask me what my insulin pump is because then I have to explain the entire concept of diabetes, the difference between type one and type two, the pancreas, insulin, etc. And 95 percent of the time so still don't understand what I'm talking about, so why waste my time.I also hate how people say stuff like, "Oh yea my (insert name of family member) has that too. He/she has to take pills." They say this almost right after i finish explaining to them, in detail, what diabetes is. I'm sorry i keep going on and on, but this has been kept inside for 6 years and it's time to vent! lol. One time, during lunch when I was taking my insulin shot (before starting the pump) and my friend saw me and asked me if I had to do that every day. I explained to her that I had to do this everytime I ate carbs. Then she said, "I feel sooo bad for you." It's funny, because I was feeling absolutley fine up until she said that. BUT the thing that bothers me more than ANYTHING is when people stare at you taking insulin/testing blood sugar, and you catch them staring and they continue to stare! As if it's not rude/impolite to stare just because someone is diabetic.

The truth is, I don't feel that different from all the other kids. I feel completely normal, but with better eating habits and nutritional knowledge than most of them. And i think of that as a good thing. It's just that when they alienate me/make me feel different that upsets me. And I know they don't mean to, and that I should just get over it becuase I'll probably be dealing with this my whole life, but even after 6 years, this still upsets me more than I'd ever life to admit...

I'm 14 years old, 5"2, 110 lbs. and i wanna lose ten pounds. i definitely have extra fat hanging all over, in some places more than others, and i just wan to lose it all. I've been researching for a few days and decided that a diet of 1200 calories daily and daily excercise that burns 600 calories would get me at my weight lose goal in the limited amount of time I have to lose this weight. However, I have learned that if you don't consume enough calories and burn too many calories your body will go into starvation mode and slow down your metabolism. I've calculated that my body burns 1500 calories just by living. with a 1200 calorie diet, this will give me and extra 300 cals being burned. this plus 600 calories lost during excercise will give me a total of 900 calories burned in a day, leaving my body with 300 calories. Is this enough or will it drive my body to starvation mode? And don't worry about what I'm eating, it's all healthy and I'm getting in all my servings of calcium/fiber/fruits/veggies/proteins/al… that other good stuff. So even if this is too much to be burning in one day, I'll just keep my diet at the same pace and reduce my excercise. That sound right? Also I take multivitamins and drink 64 oz of water. And i've cut out all junk foods

please help me! I have a geography test tomorrow, and I forgot to bring my map home to study, the test is on physical locations, so I can't find a decent map anywhere online. The test is second period. I have p.e first period, but tomorrow we're not even gonna dress out because we're just gonna watch a video. I need to fake an injury, not to serious, but one that'll get me sent to the health office for second period so I can miss the test. My teacher will let me make it up. I usually get good grades on tests, and have all A's, this is just a one time thing. Geography tests are easy for me, but I really screwed up this time. How can I fake an injury between first and second period and get sent to the nurse's office? I need help!

History Chap I Group Test

Assigned-Mon. 09/15/08,

due-Mon. 09/22/08

1st century auxiliary cavalryman and infantryman

In/with your groups:

Roleplay- You are a team of Archaeologists and historians working at a dig site in N. England (the ancient lands of the Celtic Carvetti tribe). It has been known/accepted for many years that the Romans built and used a major road that ran through your site. What isn’t as well known or agreed upon by historians is who used this road. Your biggest competitor (the team from Oxford) has just released a paper that puts forth the belief that Northern British (Christian) pilgrims and merchants used this rout exclusively as a safe rout to the old city of London. They further hypothesize that this section of Britain was relatively free of civil strife and tribal warfare during this period (200 A.D.) of Roman Rule.

GOAL: Your Job is to prove or dispute their claim based upon the sources/artifacts that have been found on your dig and dated to this period [the ones that I have presented and explained to you]. Don’t share your ideas with other teams. Answer/complete the following with your team…

A. Make a chart- How do your sources support or dispute the Oxford theory?

B. TASK I- Categorize (make a chart) the sources ( each one) as-

1. written

2. non written

3. primary

4.secondary

5. physical evidence/material culture

Remember- The items/sources may fit in to more than one category and you need to explain why it is that type of source.

C. TASK II- Make sure you include a brief explanation of why these fit each category. Remember your colleagues at Oxford don’t really want to believe your evidence so you must be thorough and convincing with your argument.

D. TASK III- After you have categorized each article/artifact/source, give a detailed written and if possible visual description (at least a paragraph) of each to present with your finished work. Remember to use your best descriptive writing skills. Below are some pictures, diagrams, etc. to remind you of the items that will be available for viewing/study in class. {Remember they are not always the objects themselves but similar objects.} Use your class time productively and wisely.

TASK IV – Choose one of the following.

Ask yourselves- Do you, as a team, have enough strong evidence (below) to write a supporting article or will you present and support a different theory of the usage and history of this section of Roman road at 200A.D.? Why or why not? Be specific.

E. If you feel that there isn’t enough evidence (in the sources/artifacts/etc.) Explain using the evidence you have examined why/how it doesn’t relate in any way to the theory of the Oxford team and the question at hand. Convince me!

OR

F. If you feel that there is evidence for a different view of what was going on there and then, present your view and back it up with the evidence you have found. Convince me!

OR

G. If you feel that your evidence supports the Oxford view restate their view and use your findings to support their theory. Convince me!

All findings are due completed and ready to turn in by the beginning of class on Mon.,09/22/07.

I drink way to much soda, and I'm trying to quit. I'm just really concerned about my growth, because I'm still a little kid, and , lately, I feel way shorter than I used to be. At the nd of last year, I was a good inch taller than one of my friends, but now she's actually taller than me!! So I tried Canada Dry ginger ale instead, but I was just wondering, could this still stunt my growth? oh and more info on how ginger ale is bad for me would be appreciated thanx!!!!!!
