  • Me, a 17 year old driving - insurance questions?

    I need to learn to drive before February because I have ROP classes I want to take. Problem is that the class is a huge time commitment;

    4 days a week, 2 hours a day, for 18 weeks. It's about a 30 minute drive for me to get there and I don't really have anybody to take me.

    I've talked to my mom about driving myself there and she is of course not really on board with it, she keeps going on about insurance will cost a lot because I'm a teen. And if I get pulled over with no insurance I'll get in trouble. Fine. (btw that <--- is all based on a chance IF I even get pulled over or get in an accident)

    But I talked to my cousin (we both live in California and he was 17 when he got it too) about it and I asked him how is he affording the expensive insurance. Then he says something about the insurance is when you buy a car.... WHAT?

    I'm not buying a car, I will just use one we already have and its of course already insured. So what gives. I just need to get to school for my ROP classes and I'm a senior now and my parents know I'm incredibly responsible and quite mature for my own good.

    Do any of you guys actually know how much the insurance even costs?

  • What is the wage for a 17 year old in SoCal?

    In job applications I've read "what wage/salary do you expect: $_____ per ____"

    I don't really have confidence to negotiate my pay, and since I'm still living with my parents for now, this money is extra for things I just want. So in a sense, this money isn't a necessity for now (but hell, money is money) until I'm actually in college. So what is good number to put,I asked my mom if I should put $9/hr and she said ABSOLUTELY NOT.

  • Questions about dorms in college.?

    -Did you check in and out every time you left and entered the building

    -We're buildings separate from women's and men's or just seperate floors

    -Was there a curfew

    -What were if any, strict rules while living in the dorms

    -Consequences if you break them

    -Could you have your boyfriend/girlfriend sleep over. If so for how many nights

    -What did it look like when you walked in the building

    -What did the restrooms look like. Was it communal

    -did you pay to live in your dorms, if so how much did you pay

    -Needed a key/card to get in the building. Was this an time only situation?

    Ex: needed a key/card to get in at all times or did you only need it after a specific time like after 7pm

    These questions may seem odd but I'm writing a story and I can't just fabricate the way because it may seem really off, but I'm not in college yet so I don't really know it yet.

    And can you give 1 name for a guy and 1 for a girl.

    Thank you for your time! :)

  • Aquarium cycling stalled?

    I'm cycling my aquarium with just fish food and no fish. In the beginning everything was great ammonia spiked, then nitrite. But it's been a few days and nitrite is 5.0 and nitrate is 5.0 as well. And it's been like this for a few days- nearing a week and the results have been the same. What happened, is this normal? And when nitrite spiked the ammonia went down, but not to 0ppm. It's in lingo between 0-.50ppm. HELP ME, I don't understand what happened. It's filtered and heated to 84. I did stop adding fish food when things started rolling, could this be a problem? Am I continually supposed to put fish food until the cycling is done?

  • How to upgrade to a larger aquarium?

    I currently have a 15 gallon column with some decor but no substrate. And I made a tiny upgrade to a 20 gallon long, it s all I could afford with out buying new items like a filter, heater, etc. This 15 gallon is cycling after an ick infestation killed my fish. Checked my parameters today and ammonia is .25 nitrite 5.0 and nitrate 5.0 (this is mid-cycle but I think it s almost done?). All the stuff I got for the 20 gallon was free but used including a fluval U2 (except filter media is new). So when I m done cycling how do I move all the stuff from the 15 gallon to the 20 without messing up and having to cycle AGAIN, I seriously do not want to cycle it again. I will be using the aqueon 10 (the one that is cycling with it) and adding the fluval as well with it. So 2 filters. Will adding another filter screw it all up??? Oh and this all a fish less cycle so I have no fish and won t be getting any until the 20 is done and ready.

  • Is my fish tank safe now to use?

    About a month ago my fish had ich and they all died despite my treatments. So after that I let the tank run for a few days but I cranked up the heater and my thermometer says it was 90 degrees inside. Then I soaked my filter, thermometer, heater in white vinegar (if you have an aqueon filter don t do this because it messed up some green part of my filter on the intake, but I m still using it) and I let the tank to dry outside to dry for like 4-5 days as well as my ornaments. Then I rinsed everything and scrubbed the tank thouroughly. I have my tank running again with everything inside and I m in the processing of cycling it. But is my tank now safe to use?? It s an aqueon 15 column tank.

  • Dogs paw pad cracks and comes off?

    My dogs paw pads have recently started to crack and fall off. On one of her toes (not the entire paw) the whole pad has come off. She licks it a lot. A few weeks ago she had a similar problem except in between her toes it was red, peeling, and swollen. We were given HexaChlor-K wipes for that, should we continue using it for the pads. She now has a sore inbetween her toes. Or should I go to the vet.

  • I had at most 20 hooded orioles come to my feeder yesterday (I put it up the day before yesterday), and today I haven't seen one visit.?

    I bought a hummingbird feeder on 6/10/15 and put it up the same day. On the first day no birds came to it (which is what I expected anyway). The day after 6/11/15 I had at most 20 hooded orioles and a few hummers come, I was shocked to see so many. And today 6/12/15, I've seen a few hummers but not a single hooded oriole visit. What happened, did I do something wrong?

    Its on the same spot as yesterday where many came, in the middle of my backyard on the grass, hanging on a double shepherd hook.

    I purchased this feeder:

  • Best time to get Vitamin D from the sun?

    I've had very low Vitamin D this year because my activities are always done indoors. Really the only time I'm outside for quite a bit is when I'm walking my dog.

    I live in Southern California, so what time would be ideal to go out and walk my dog? Please help, I've developed a skin condition from low Vitamin D. I've taken blood test that revealed it. Out of 30 mine was 5 for VD.

    And thank you for reading this.

  • I have to get my blood drawn tomorrow and I'm really scared?

    So tomorrow I'm getting my blood drawn. Is there anything I can do so I don't get dizzy, nauseous, or faint. I'm going to Quest Diagnostics can I request a thin needle? And if I can, which needle? I'm so scared of needles, how long is it going to take to get my blood drawn?

    I'm getting a blood test not donating. Any guesses on how much blood they will take??
