  • Need help with a girl, this is my last resort?

    Ok so this is a very weird situation. There's a girl I like but I'm too awkward to spark conversations. It's weird because I'm very out going in the class we have together, I'm the class clown and I've actually talked to her a few times before. She laughs at all the idiotic jokes and blatantly stupid things I say but I just get to nervous to approach her. My best friend hates her because she doesn't let him cheat off her tests. This may seem minor but the last time I almost had a girlfriend he helped set me up. I'm a senior, she's a junior but I've never had a real relationship in high school. I'm apparently more popular (but I feel like a loser half the time) and I feel that's made her uncomfortable the few times we've talked. I've seen her look at me in class before and but I'm not good at picking up signals girls give off. I've had girls "like" me in the past year or two but I either didn't like them or I wasn't comfortable talking to them. I think this girl is different because I've talked to her before but I just never seem able to muster up the courage to just go talk to her. Does anyone have any advice they could give or have any clue how I can solve this ongoing issue I've had?

  • Help choosing what colleges to apply to please?

    Hi I'm a senior and I was wondering what kind of schools you think I could get into. Here's my credentials

    White, Male

    GPA: 3.81 (W) 3.57 (UW)

    SAT: 670 M 630 W 630 CR

    Class Decile Rank: 2/10 (I'm anywhere from top 11%-20% my school does not specify, but we're top 15 in PA) of 286 students

    Honors: 9 honors classes over first 3 years

    AP: AP Chemistry (senior year) AP Gov (senior year) and AP Euro (junior year, 3 on the exam)

    Senior year schedule: AP Gov, CHS Physics (through the pitt), reading writing workshop, british liteature, contemporary nonfiction, team sports (gym), calculus, AP Chemistry

    Leadership: Assistant Coach for Moon Area Baseball, Treasurer of Robotics club, Cub scouts assistant den leader

    Volunteer: Concession stand worker for Moon Band, scoreboard operator for moon football, baseball assistant coach

    Extracurricular Activities: 4 years of inline hockey, 2 years philosophy club, 1 year robotics club, 1 year world cultures club, 2 years salesperson at sheetz

    So far I've been accepted to Pitt, applied to Penn State (I asked an admissions officer during my visit and they said it would be an absolute shock if I was denied) and I've been kinda unsure after that. I've been contemplating NYU but I feel my GPA is too low. Are there any schools, preferably in the Northeastern United States, that I should consider? I'm looking for a big school that is as high ranked as possible. My intended major is finance and I may also consider law school down the road.

  • Which stick and curve should I get?

    I'm getting a stick at Dick's tomorrow (most likely). I know I'm getting and 85 flex but I'm torn between the Bauer APX2, Reebok RibCore and Easton V9. I was leaning toward the APX2 since Bauer has a great record with stick's but I wouldn't know what curve to get. I'm 6'0 off skates, a power forward/playmaker and generally take snappers and wristers with a few slapshots mixed in. Any help?

  • Thinking of joining PC Master Race but...?

    I know nothing about computers. Basically I want a laptop that can run games on high settings at as close to 60 fps as possible. Does anyone know a good model to look into.

    I would mainly use it for gaming but would also use it for school stuff occasionally if that factors in at all

  • Xbox One or PS4 please help!?

    Fanboys, now is your chance, I hae enough money for either and I can't decide which I want. On one hand, PS4 has Infamous Second Son, Killzone Shadow Fall (which looks decent), Destiny timed DLC exclusivity and any subsequent Last of Us or Uncharted game. On the other hand, Xbox has Gears of War, Halo, Titanfall and CoD, Battlefield and The Division timed DLC exclusivity. If you can't tell my main factor is games but media does interest me. I use mainly Netflix, HBO GO and anything I can watch hockey on (f**k you ESPN) so if either or both has all 3 that's a huge plus. Basically, which should I get and why?

  • Why don't colleges use weighted GPA's?

    I was looking at the collegeboard website today and saw that most colleges, including the three I want to go to (Pitt, Penn State, Ohio State) use a 4.0 scale, which don't take honors and AP into consideration. Why is it fair that my GPA is lower if I got two B's in AP classes as compared to someone who took all regular classes and got one or no B's? Can someone explain this to me!

  • With the rumors swiriling about Fallout 4...?

    I was just wondering if anyone had any opinions on what they should do to make the perfect fallout. Here's my opinion:

    1. YOU HAVE TO BE ABLE TO CONTINUE AFTER BEATING THE GAME

    If I beat one more Fallout game where it ends after you beat it, I quit. This is a given and I'm pretty sure every fan wants this

    2. Needs an interesting region.

    Although the DC Wasteland was marvelous, the Mojave Wasteland bored the hell out of me. I never felt the urge to explore because everything looked and felt the same. I think they need a big, interesting region and I had a few ideas:

    -New York City- Lots of landmarks and I think it would be fun to explore the city and see all the cool places (Central Park Crater anyone) and there's lots of room for interesting factions (a faction that lives on Broadway and sings everything would be hilarious) and crazy religions (Atlas statue worshipped as a God?).

    -New England- Although I've heard rumors about Boston, I don't think that there is enough up there for this to not feel like an extension of Point Lookout

    - Florida- How awesome would it be tow walk around the remains of Disney World and Universal (This game would be GOTY just for having Mickey Mouse armor). Also, as Oasis in Fallout 3 showed, this game can look really good, and the Nukes dropped long enough before that not EVERYTHING has to look like a destroyed pile of trash and Florida's landscape would look stunning

    -Northwestern America- exploring the lush forests of Washington and the great Urban environments of Seattle and LA would be sweet, plus it would be cool to revisit the roots of Fallout's original games

    3. Add more songs to the Radio Stations

    I love the music in Fallout more than anyone I know, but I should be able to have one sitting without hearing Johnny Guitar and Big Iron five times each. Don't change the genre but add some variety

    4.Mix the choice of New Vegas with the Storytelling of Fallout 3

    My favorite part of New Vegas was you could play the game ten times and never do the same exact thing. However, the story was weak to say the least. I would want to choose who I side with while also being engaged in a great story. If anyone can pull that off, it's Bethesda

    5. Lastly, (and most importantly), DO NOT MAKE AN MMO

    What I love about Bethesda games in general is it's MY world and it's different than anyone else's. I don't want to share and have other people there. Otherwise your decisions don't mean anything. If I want to blow up Megaton I'll do it, if I want to send some crazy ghoul lunatics into space then I will, but don't put me in an uninteractive environment like World of Warcraft and say everything is okay. I want my decisions to be mine and yours to be yours.

    Just my opinions but leave feedback in the answers and thanks for sticking through this monster question

  • Should I switch my preorder?

    A little while back preordered BF4. After the the Beta I was underimpressed to say the least. Now today I played CoD MW2 for the first time in years and forgot how fun it was, especially Search and Destroy. Do you guys think I should switch my preorder from BF4 to CoD Ghosts just for Search and Destroy or should I leave it and hope for the best?
