The reason I joined YA is because I want to study how people can be different from each other. I also like to help people. I'll try my best to help them specially when the concern's about family, mental psychology or spirituality. I usually go to these categories. My motive in joining this is to help. I also ask questions but that was before. I don't ask often right now. I don't really care about the points much, I care about how I help people. I'll try my best to help you and to share Jesus' love that he's given me.
Will someone please tell me what happened in the 1986 student movement in France?

3 AnswersLanguages10 years agoplease critique this?
'Paper is patient' says Anne Frank. So I express all of my joys and perils by writing. At least paper wouldn't have the ability to disagree or think oddly about how you feel. Every ink that drops will just be absorbed and recorded.
The most comforting part about writing in a piece of paper is that it will never reply back, people will reply back but not this one. It doesn't blurt out the right things to say but at least it shuts up, unlike some people who think they're the most unfortunate people on earth then give advices by sharing how worse their situations are compared to yours. In reality,their 'advice' just made you feel worse.
Which would be better: A friend that tries to sympathize (empathize, even) with your problems even though it seems that they don't really understand what you're going through or the one who's just willing to stay by your side, mouth sealed and prepared to listen. The latter is paper, the company that people tend to judge as a 'shoulder to lean on.' BOW.
* please help me make this piece better. thanks

1 AnswerMathematics1 decade agoWho can help me prove these theorems?
Sorry if I've almost filled the question box for this category but I just badly need the answers. I'
m not really good in proving and I'm not confident with my answers. Anyway, I have actually answered this but I want to compare results. 5 stars for the best answer.
Theorem (1): -b/a = -(b/a) = b/-a and -b/-a - b/a
Theorem (2) b/a + d/c = (b*c + a*d)/a*c
Thank you thank you thank you!!
1 AnswerMathematics1 decade agoProve these theorems?
Theorem (1): If b/a = d/a, then b = d, and of b/a = d/c; then b*c = a*d
Theorem (2): If b/a is not equal to 0, then 1/(b/a) = a/b
Theorem (3): If b/a is not equal to 0, then (d/c)/(bla) = (d*a)/(c*b)

1 AnswerHomework Help1 decade agoI just want to ask if I should still continue this story. Please critic.?
It was a bright afternoon that Tuesday. The sun shone its splendor to the place of the solemn souls, Dachau. The Reich must have been a little thoughtful since the concentration camp, made especially for Jews, was slightly huge, but too bad it cannot support nearly ten thousands of people living in every corner of it these days. The sun did shine brightly and it was supposed to give joy to the little kids this summer but it just brought toils and frustrations to the citizens of Germany since it signals another day of mischievous attacks, piles of errands, and ceaseless bombings.
This day is very significant to the Gestapo, especially to Herr Alfred Keller. This day is IT. He can publicly prove to everyone how much he loves his dear country, Germany.
Herr Alfred Keller was staring blankly at the prisoners, neatly arranged in rows and columns. His bearing was as usually outstanding and remarkable. A Colonel of the SS should have the appropriate posture since in his very self, he bears the name of Adolf Hitler. In fact, everyone who joined the Nazis should be proud of themselves inclucing that the name of Hitler has marked a huge impact in their lives, and they will always bear it even if they die.
“Colonel Keller,” one of the soldiers called. Herr Alfred, distracted from his search, paid a quick attention, facing the soldier sternly. Aware that the colonel asked for his response, the soldier handed a gun to Alfred. Alfred firmly grasped the gun, trying to hide his trembling.
The scene was awful. Chosen people were forced to line up from left to right in front of the piteous rows and columns of other prisoners. They were instructed to get down, facing the floor. On the end of the line was Margaret Bauer, too numb because of fear of pain and of death.
“Sir!” the soldier saluted to Colonel Keller. Alfred knew the meaning of the signal; he was tasked to kill everyone in the newly coordinated row; even Margaret. Alfred was trying hard not show any sympathy to the prisoners even though he was dying to take Margaret away from this brutal place. If he shows a sign of pity, it will not just be Margaret’s life at stake but also his.
“Alf..” Colonel Klein called as he patted his friend’s back. Out of his deep thoughts, Alfred tried to respond as normally as he does but at the back of his head, he did not know exactly what his next step should be. “Go pull the trigger.. make your mother country proud!” the Colonel continued letting out a huge grin. Alfred tried to hide his anxiousness as possible but seeing his lovely Margaret lying helplessly in the floor made his heart break a thousand of times.
He walked towards the first person then pulled the trigger slowly. BANG! A shot directly in the head. That was one down. BANG! and another. As he was nearing to Margaret, his heart beat like a drum. He wished he could freeze the time or better yet, turn back time to reverse all the events leading to this terrible scene but he has to face the reality. It was easy killing the unfamiliar people in the line. He had killed many of them since the start of the war but this time, as he neared Margaret, it was as if he was pointing his gun to his head. As he shoots one person, that means he should shoot another, and so, pretty soon the turn of Margaret. He had always thought that killing his loved one will be the last thing he could do so what makes him get closer to Margaret inch by inch? BANG! That was the ninth bullet. And finally..
It was finally her turn to taste the single ammunition that will eventually take her precious life. She laid there motionless. She did not even utter a word like some of them did. She did not tremble with fear and pity instead she was like a dying plant waiting for its final hour. Alfred knew that she was completely aware of what will happen next. It will be her death, her plausible death for the Nazis and her piteous death to the Jews. Finally, Alfred pointed the mouth of the gun to Margaret’s head. He was trembling, now it slightly shows. “Just say a word.. ‘sorry’ perhaps or ‘please’..” he thought “..Something that will make me stop from this insolence.” In his mind, he was begging Margaret. He knew of how useless his begging was since Margaret cannot even hear it. He wished she could read his mind, and maybe try to find her way out even though there was a slim chance of getting away. In that way, at least he will feel her consciousness and so prevent from pulling the trigger right on his hand. He continued trembling, not even minding that the soldiers were controlling their patience. “Alfred! For the country!” Klein said interrupting Alfred’s train of thoughts.
‘For the country..’ those words played over and over in his head ‘For the country… For the country..’
Will he pull the trigger?

2 AnswersPhysics1 decade agohi!! Please judge my poem...?
Hi! I'm really an amateur in making poems...
This poem I made is supposed for our literature class.
I really need your help.. I'm not sure is this poem is lovely or if it has errors. I badly need your help.. You have my thanks in advance...
A poem by a luckless friend
The secrecy in her heart
I cannot understand
Is she broken apart?
Can contentment give her a hand?
Acting as innocent as possible
That is her devilish scheme
She tries to be so lovable
When I thought we were a team
The man I lay my eyes on
The man she always gets
By her hypnotizing coquettes, she thought she have won
She didn't know it's her soul she bets
When I thought she was a sheep
She turned out to be a fox
Her bootless pretense are deep
Yet she tries to hide it in a box
That box brings shiver
That box is cold
Her attitude will never leave her
And stay in her heart until she grows old
Why do I have a friend like her
She, who enjoys to steal the interests of mine?
She snatches every man by her blinding power
and she'll never realize she've crossed the line
If you want to.. please try to edit it...
The first lines seems fine but as the poem stretches to the end.. it becomes unpleasant.. maybe it's because of the hatred I have to this person... but anyway.. please... by all means... try to help me.. you have my thanks!!
8 AnswersPoetry1 decade agoHello.. about a poem i can't quite understand?
Hi, I do understand this a bit but I need to know others understanding about this poem.. Please kindly answer. It would be greatly appreciated.
I am a female of the new times,
Which means I really haven't any clue.
Men may carry over some belongings,
But women will be altogether new.
Each of us will have to be a sculptor
Carving madly every stage of life.
Our models must be pure imagination
Dancing in the winds of daily strife.
I'm sure there will be much I will regret:
Freedom offers vast fields for mistakes.
But I will spend my time among the mountains
Bathing in the shock of icy lakes.
I know that I don't know what I will be,
And find that total ignorance inviting.
May many of my sisters come with me!
The journey will be painful and exciting.
7 AnswersPoetry1 decade agoAttitude problems within myself?
Hi! I'm 16 and I really need help. These days, I don't usually ask question, I usually answer but I really need help.
I'm a Senior student and soon to be graduating. I really like to change my attitude. I know God knitted me this way but I still want to change because I think this attitude I have isn't really right. Here's a list of my personality:
~ I'm loud. I think I'm hungry for attention.
~ I always kid people around. I think sometimes, I hurt their feelings.
~ I always laugh really loud.
~ I like to communicate with everybody but sometimes I just become very noisy.
When I was a sophomore student, I don't really act this way. I'm not really that loud. I'm only loud when I'm with my friends. But when I'm in the room, I keep myself together. I don't try t grab atterntion, I don't yell in the class all the time. All I care about are my grades. I am loud only when I'm with my closest friends. And I was trying this personality test. I tried it when I was a sophie and I found out I'm an introvert but when I tried it when I was a junior, I found out I become an extrovert. I really want to keep things myself. I don't wanna be an attention grabber because my friend just told me I am one.
Please help me and please make your answer sensible. I really need it. I don't wanna end my year with these bad traits. I actually want to be quiet and conservative. I wanna be appreciated by just being myself and not being noisy around. I don't wanna grab attention anymore. I only like a little attention. Attention from those who love me will do. I don't care if my attitude transformation will be sudden, I just wanna change, that's all. Thank you for answering.
