  • Is it weird for me to be totally consumed and obsessed with Anthropology at such a young age?

    I am 16 and I love it. :) Its what I want to do for the rest of my life and I read college textbooks everyday about it and various cultures. Am I crazy?

    By the way also, im a straight A student, have an office job, and volunteer at 3 places. (after school program, food drive, and my local theater.)

    I'm not a troll, I just wonder what people think. :)

  • My mother is angry with me no matter what I do, help?

    My mother is angry with me no matter what I do, help?

    So, about 2 years ago my parents split up and we moved away, my mom met her current boyfriend whom we live with about 8 months ago. Hes probably the most wonderful guy ever. My father on the other hand not so much. Ive been having nightmares and daydreams about him on and off for about 2 years. Its getting to the point where I cannot function. I am behind in school, I can't sleep, I can't even think straight. Sometimes i become so angry and yell. I cant help but wonder if this isn't related to my mom being angry at me. With her I could say one wrong thing and she blows up and yells to the point where im on the floor in a ball crying. Then, she yells at me to stop crying and if i don't she tells me how worthless i am. I know shes under a lot of stress because she cant get a job and my dad isn't paying up but i am pretty sure this isn't okay. I'm trying so hard to be her perfect child. I do all my chores before being told, under normal circumstances I am a straight A student, I have a job, I volunteer, and I'm always going out of my way for her.

    I am sixteen by the way. I have taken a responsibility role because I thought she could use less stress. So I look at my step brother and help with everything. Only my stepfather even thanks me.

    Whenever I try talking to her she acts sympathetic and will be nice for about an hour but if im not doing chores or homework after the hour she yells again. i do think she is bipolar as well. She was diagnosed as a teen but denys it now.

  • History Chart about Confucianism?

    Hi, I have to write a chart about what a Confucian leader would think about different aspects of our society and I'm getting confused. Questions I have to answer are about government, religion, relationships, being a good person, society, etc. I have to answer what he would think, what he would change, how he would suggest change, etc, etc. I completely understand the concept and why I have to do it but my knowledge of history is more African and Indian. I'm know very little about China. Maybe if you have good websites or can give me a couple hints? Thanks!

  • Does he sound real or fake? Please help!?

    Okay, so I made a "myyearbook.com" account trying to find people near where I'm moving too. I started talking to only guys because I get along with them better. Then, I started talking to Micah. I contacted him and added him as a friend. I started IMing him being my hyper, crazy self and he did the same. We started becoming closer as friends and then he said he thinks I'm cute and I thought he was too so were like okay we like each other. So, then we both started flirting with each other and decided we should meet. I told my mom everything and she said its fine we will do this in public with her there. Then it got a little weird.... He started saying he loves me. At first I thought it was kind of funny then I thought he could be fake. Then somehow we got into talking about weddings and he was like I want to marry you when were older. I was like WOAH THERE. Then I explained hes going to fast and he should stop it. Then, the other weird part is that we have everything in common and I made sure I asked him what his favorite thing was first then answer my own and it was the same almost every time- I'm like wow. He has pictures on his profile of himself and I asked him for more and he put more up in different clothes too. He has a video on youtube doing butterfly knife tricks and he looks real. I think so, and hope so. He sounds like a great guy but do you think hes fake? I will always take the proper safety precautions.

    P.S. >> Link to his video>>> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c8vlsg48ofM

    Thank you!!! (By the way, I'm 15, he is too as far as I know.)(Is there a way to tell if hes real??? A certain question to ask him?)

  • Can I get some help here??????????????????

    Alright, yes I am putting this in the wrong section, I'm sorry but nobody will answer in the other ones. PLEASE HELP>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

    Okay, this is kind of complicated. I want a murder/ horror party with cool decor like a chalk outline, yellow police tape, evidence markers, cobwebs, black balloons, and red streamers. I am thinking dollar store for that. Then I was thinking, colorful candies, popcorn, and soda for snacking and drinks. I have no clue about dinner, maybe Pizza but what else would work? For dessert I am thinking vanilla ice cream with red strawberry syrup and I was going to take gummy bears and cut their heads off and get gummy sharks so it looks like shark attacks. I am getting horror movies but which ones? Nothing rated R, I have conservative friends. I have the games clue, and apples to apples. My mom has a horror sounding tape with screams and such, what can I do with that? Any other fun terrifying ideas? In the morning were going to eat healthy because my friends will be sick of junk food. Ha ha. I am thinking eggs and fruit and juice. Oh, and my friends are Christian, church going, conservative like i said so what do you think will be the reaction off parents and is this okay? If anybody got to scared I'd change it up. I do want to go hair and nails and all too and chill, so anyways... Help? THANK YOU!

    P.S. I asked before and forgot to say its for my 15th birthday so no baby stuff and I am NOT having cake. Just icecream with extras. Oh, and lattes.

  • I need money asap!!!! HAVE LIMITED OPTIONS!?

    Okay, her is the deal. I am 14 going on 15 this month, I want my best friend to come visit for a long weekend and she lives 6 hours away (driving distance). My mom has agreed to it but her mom is hesitant because their short on money and probably can't afford to do this. It costs us about $100 to do it because we'd meet at a half way point. So, the thing is I could just be like yeah, I understand maybe when you get some cash but I am moving halfway across the country next month and won't have a chance to see her for a long time. Since I love this girl so much I decided I should raise the money for them. We would be getting her the 13th if it works out. So as you can tell I have almost 0 options. I can't ask for a loan, I can't babysit or do yard work or anything of the sort because I live in the country side and can't get a ride and besides that nobodies hiring. So, the question is how can I get the cash? Please help me. I think I'd just die if I couldn't see her. The only way my moms affording this is because I am not get a birthday present... Which is fine if I can see my friend.
