For a speech I have to give in English I have to compare John Green to another 21 century person, any ideas??

So my friend has a history of dating douche bags. Every time she meets one I get this bad feeling in the pit of my stomach and I try warning her. She never follows my advice and ends up getting her heart broken and crying to me about it. She and a really good guy friend of ours have been flirting for a while and I encouraged them because they would be great together, but then she met her current boyfriend Chris. Now Chris has never done anything bad to her, but he is really rude to me and after a few weeks of knowing him I thoroughly hate him. I've tried warning her that he is just like all the other guys and that she would be wayyy better with our good friend, but she just keeps getting mad at me and telling me to get over it. He's always around and I honestly don't know if I can still hang out with her while she's dating him. I also dont think that I will be able to be sympathetic when she tries crying to me when he breaks up with her.

So I have been friends with this girl (Lets call her Maggie) since middle school. She is really funny and just a really cool person to be around. Throughout the years we have developed a really strong friend group and we were all very close. But about a year ago, Maggie started to get really obsessed with this website called tumblr. Slowly it has destroyed her relationship with all the girls in our group. I am literally her only friend now, because of this she clings to me. The only thing she talks about is tumblr and eventually it started to get on my nerves too. So for the past few months I have pretended nothing was wrong and tried to not hang out with her after school. I've tried to talk to her about it and every time I do, she gets mad and lashes out at me.She is literally on it 24/7. So today we were sitting at a table in the lunch room during our open hour and she was really upset because tumblr wasn't working on her computer and she started freaking out at me (She was already really upset about her phone breaking) and I calmly told her that I didn't want to be around her when she was this angry and that maybe instead of going on tumblr, she could talk to me or do some of the homework (that she never does anymore). Then I got up and went to the library, which is where I am now, and honestly I am so done with her. She is ruining her life, and has no friends anymore. I dont want her to be alone, but I cant handle her anymore.

Okay, so today at school I was talking to a friend about my niece named Missy. We were working on a science project and my partner was a very popular girl, also named Missy. Anyway, my partner went to the sink to get some more hot water and I started telling my friend about how I really hated my nieces name when she was first born and when she asked me what her name was, I told her it was Missy. My partner turned around and gave me the look of death, then put down the bottle really hard and stormed over to her friend (Who is my neighbor and already dislikes me) and started talking to him. I could see them looking over at me. I feel really stupid and sorry about what happened, before this we had a pretty good relationship. I kind of just pretended that it didn't happen, and we finished our project. I'm afraid that she is going to tell a bunch of people and make it out to them that I'm a bad person or something. Everybody loves her, so I am sure that if she told them they would easily believe her.

I realize that this really doesn't seem like a huge issue, but I tend to work myself up a lot and right now I am really really worked up.

the problem is: Ted deposited money in an account 5 years ago that paid 5% interest compounded monthly. If the account is worth $3000 today, how much did he deposit?

if you could help with the entire problem that would be great =D but if not, I just really need help understanding what 'n' stands for in this equation, thank you!

So, my boyfriend and I have been going out for about five months and I cannot stand his best friend. MY boyfriend is really really attractive and put together and knows what he wants his life to be like after high school, he gets good grades and is really funny and charismatic and I love him. He has this best friend who was the reason we got together in the first place (I was partners with him for a science project) and he was super cool at first and we were pretty good friends, but then his girlfriend broke up with him and he changed. He started getting really crude and pervy and is always hitting on me when my boyfriend isn't around. He started slacking off in school and he always smells like cigarettes. I have no clue what to do or how to tell my boyfriend that he makes me uncomfortable because they have been friends forever and are like brothers and im afraid he might get mad and choose him over me. any suggestions?

So, I am 15 years old and my friend was invited to her coworkers halloween party who is 18, A few days ago she asked me and another friend if we wanted to go, and we said yeah. It just came to my mind that there might be drinking/smoking there... I havent asked my mom if I can go yet because she's super overprotective and if I told her I was going to a party she would insist on calling the hosts parents. So my question is, should I tell her im going to a party, say im sleeping over at a friends house? I really wouldn't be lying because I would be sleeping over at her house, I would just leave out the party thing. and I really want to go to that party. I have never given my parents any reason not to trust me and she wouldn't call my friends mom because I sleepover there all the time...

Also if I go, should I drink/smoke? I have never been to a 'real' party before and I dont know if my friends will (But I have a feeling they will) and Im not sure what I would do if put in that situation

So, my friend just got back from a retreat at our church and she sent me a text saying "why weren't you there?" about an hour ago, but I was asleep and so about 20 minutes ago I texted her back saying"if your talking about the retreat, I didn't go because my sister had her first wedding dress fitting and i really wanted to be there" (which is the truth) and then i asked her if she had fun. I don't remember ever telling her I was going, I only really remember talking to a few of our mutual friends about how I wasn't sure if I was going and I told as few different friends that I wasn't going. And I didn't even know she went until I got to church this morning and she wasn't there, but she still hasn't texted me back and I'm worried shes mad...

So... I'm a Sophomore in HS so obviously I still live at home, and I cant stand my mom. I feel like I give my mom all the love in the world (I give her hugs and tell her I love her) and I expect the same back, but whenever I do that she ignores me. I will try talking to her and she will be on Facebook or texting or something and all I will want her to do is talk to me, but she wont respond.

I am currently trying to be accepted into a program where I will leave high school next year and the state will pay for two years of college for me. but I have to have a 3.5 GPAvand right now I have exactly a 3.5 GPA. The only problem is I am probably going to get either a C,D, or an F in Algebra 2. I feel like im drowning. I have been talking to my parents about getting me a tutor since school started and my dad promised me that my mom would call today because I have a test on Thursday and I want her to help me study, I came home from school and asked my mom if she had done it and she said no. I asked her when she would do it and she said that she would do it when she felt like it. The teachers leave school at 4:30, and I told her that and she still hasn't called.

I really hate saying that I hate my mom, but I really do. I have had depression since 7th grade and it kind of comes and goes (its seasonal) and I think that she is a leading contributor because she doesn't give me the love and attention I feel every child needs. I have talked to my siblings (who are all adults) and they said that it was like that for all of them, and once you move out it gets better. I dont think I can wait that long... and I feel like if something doesn't change im just not going to come home

Any advice???

So, I am 16 years old and I need to lose around 75 pounds and I was wondering how l much I could lose over the summer if I ate a 190 calorie shake for breakfast and a weight watchers meal for lunch and a healthy, lean and green dinner and also went to the gym for an hour at least four times a week

So over the weekend my family went to a hotel with some family friends of ours. I don't necessarily hang out with the kids very often, but we usually get along. This time though, a new boy, about a year younger than me came along,his name was Chase. So when he got there Case and Jake (one of the family friends) started kind of ignoring me and the other girls, later in the day though, I was left alone with just Chase and (I think) we really hit it off. a few hours later Jake came back in and we were all talking and then they started to get pretty inappropriate, like, they were talking about masturbation and porn (this only came in short infrequent bursts though) and at first I was just thinking that it was them being teenage boys, so after it got REALLY inappropriate I left. So, I was just laying in bed thinking about how I really did like Chase (When we were a lone he was very funny and smart and kind) but then I realized that maybe I was annoying him and he wanted me gone, but didn't want to ask me to leave (I was in his hotel room) and told Jake and they decided to scare me off by being inappropriate... Do you think he liked me and was just acting like that because Jake was there or do you think he was trying to scare me off?

A little over a mounth ago I cut myself for the first time. They aren't very deep cuts and I really regret doing it. In may I am going to be going on a trip to Ireland and I would really like for my scars to be wait her gone or healed enough that they can be easily covered by makeup... Will neosporin do that?

So I am writing a book that takes place at Columbia University. I am only a sophomore so I don't know much about dorm rooms. Should I use a real name of a dorm? and if I do, do I have to go with what the correct information says? My main thing is that I want my main character to share a room and I am super confused as to what a single and double room is. All the dorms have more single rooms than double rooms so i'm really confused as to what to do...

I have some month old scars on my stomach from a really bad skiing accident, it is really embarrassing and my boyfriend wants me to go with him and his family to Hawaii next mounth, so I will have to be wearing a bathing suit. I don't want him or his family or anyone else staring. I hear that Aloe Vera helps with scars but the only kind I can find is Aloe Vera ocean potion and I was wondering if it was the same stuff, and if it even works, and if it matters the brand name and how quickly it will help heal scars? Thank you!!!

So... I have been really depressed for about 3 years now and I cut myself last week. It was stupid and opened my eyes to how my life really isn't that bad, but I have 6 cuts on my arm now and I really need them to go away. In the meantime it is winter and I live in Minnesota so I can get away with wearing long sleeves for a while, also I have been drawing on my scars to cover them up they have gone away some but I really want them gone now so if you know anything..

I just bought seasons 1 & 2 and love it! but I have been reading into the other seasons and some pretty weird things go on. I would love to watch it but are the other seasons as good as the first ones... better maybe? And also, since season six is currently airing, do you think I should watch that now or wait till it comes out on DVD?

So, I'm mixed (my mom us white and my dad is black) and my skin is darker. I have been noticing that I have light spots on my arms, chest, stomach, and legs. I have been trying to convince my mom to make an appointment for a doctor, but she hasn't. I am out of town visiting a friend, and I have noticed that they are multiplying and it is really scaring me... And I would love to know what you think.

I have just watched the movie and loved it. I have always heard that the book is better than the movie and I am going to be going on a trip on Saturday and need a book for the flight... But I don't want to get it if it's bad.

Thank you!
