Why do they use the word 'green' in the phrase 'green-eyed monster'?
I already understand that the phrase is used to describe jealousy... But...
What is the significance of the colour? What does it mean/symbolise?
Many thanks for any answers :)

Thank you for any input :)
At the moment my hair is the blonde colour (with like the tiniest amount regrowth). So the change to red will be fairly easy.
5 AnswersHair9 years agothings going wrong when internet shopping? help?
I purchased a dress from Asos (Marketplace) and it came int the mail yesterday.
BUT it's the wrong dress!!
I intend on either getting a refund or sending it back and getting the proper dress.
Am I liable to ask for an Express post when they exchange the dress and deliver it back?? (this is only because I have my formal in less than two weeks and there would be no point in getting the new dress shipped back if it doesn't get delivered in time)
Or, if I get the dress refunded can I ask them to pay for the dress to be shipped back to them?
It is there fault afterall, and I don't want to be spending money on their mistake.
Thank for any help. I really don't know how to go about problems with it comes to Internet shopping.
1 AnswerYahoo Shopping10 years agoShould I switch schools? Dilemma...?
At my current school (which is selective), there is honestly nothing wrong with it. I have friends and the grade I'm with is close with great parties and we're all very tight niche.
But, I recently my application for a 'better selective high school' got accepted.
If you don't know what that is. This just means that the school has a better education system.
A part of me really wants to go to the other high school- I get all subjects I want for years 11 and 12, as well as being able to do 13 units.
Yet, at my current school I had to sacrifice some subjects and pick up ones I didn't want to do. AND I only get to do 12 units. Which would leave me in a sticky situation come HSC time.
I won't drone on too much.
But, education wise the other school is better.
Social wise I'm not sure... And, that is the problem...
How can I be sure I'm not making the biggest mistake of my life just changing schools :|?
What would you do if you were in my situation?
Sorry, this is a bit long.
But, thank you for answering.

1 AnswerFast Food1 decade agoI have no personal qualities to show in my school application? D: help?
I'm apply to change schools and one of the factors of the application is 'What experiences and achievements in leadership and community service have you had?'
Honestly, I have none.
But, that does not mean I have no leadership, it is just that I don't go forward for things like school captain. How can I show I have these qualities, but without the flashy badge?
