I got the Samsung Note 3 last April and I really cannot stand it anymore. I want to go back to the iphone, but I don’t have an upgrade until late 2016. So, I wanted to look into cheaper options for either an iPhone 5s or 5c. However, buying it full price is not an option right now.

I was looking into either buying it off of Ebay or Amazon, or going to a store and trading in my current phone and paying the difference.

Does anyone have experience with either of these buying options? Or have a better option? I just don’t want to get ripped off.

Thank you!

A few weeks ago I got acrylic tips put on for the first time. Right now they look like a french manicure, but when I go back I wanted to get a color put on instead of having a french manicure. So my question is, will I have to get a full set put on, or will they be able to paint them a different color and fill them?

Thank you!

I received the IDs and everything but my question is how legit are they? In your experience, how well has your ID worked when you tried to use it?

Earlier today I was fighting with my sister and she got really angry and punched me in the head. Immediately after she punched me I saw a white flash. Then for a little bit I wasnt feeling myself.. I dont really know how to explaIn it but I just felt weird.. Or like my vision was weird. My mom gave me a Tylenol and now my stomach hurts a little bit. I feel like I may be talking myself into it though. Could this possibly be a concussion?

For the past two months or so I've noticed that right when I wake up in the morning, I feel like I haven't been breathing. I feel like I have to catch my breath, and my heart is beating kind of fast. This morning was probably the worst its ever been. I woke up and I just wasn't breathing, so I kind of had to gasp for air. It kinda feels like I've been holding my breath in my sleep. It has never woken me up during the middle of the night, but it happens every morning when I wake up. Any ideas of what this could be?

Ok, I'm seventeen, and I have a sister who is fifteen, going on sixteen. We do not get along, at all. We never have. My mom has always said it will get better as you get older, but it never has. But honestly, its not my fault! My sister is a psycho. She gets in these fits of rage and just goes off. Like tonight for example, I didn't drive her to her friends house because I had to study for a test, and she became so enraged she started to beat me up. She starts yelling for no reason at all, and when she does its over the dumbest, most unimportant things, like if I'm wearing her shoes or something. She is so greedy, and never shares anything. But then she expects me to drive her to her friends houses and the mall and stuff. When she doesn't get her way she yells at me and says stuff like how I'll never get anywhere in life and how I cry over everything. Then she'll call me fat or a b*tch, c*nt, or things like that. I've had it with her. Every time I tell my parents she does this stuff they kind of brush it off and say like "well.. I'll talk to her." or "what do you want me to do about it?" My friends see it too, but my parents completely ignore it! I can't take it anymore. I've asked my parents if I can move in with my grandparents, but they think that I'm being ridiculous. So what am I suppose to do?! Or how can I convince my parents to see that my sister is just a straight up mean person?!

My moms birthday is coming up, and I was planning on getting her a book because shes always saying she needs a new book to read. In the past shes read books like:

The Last Lecture by Randy Pausch

The Time Traveller's Wife by Audrey Niffenegger

Her Fearful Symmetry by Audrey Niffenegger

Thats pretty much all I can remember. I've tried to get her to read Harry Potter but she said she "doesn't have the attention span" for those books. So if anyone has any suggestions about what you think she would enjoy it would be greatly appreciated..

Ok, so I'm going to be a junior in high school and this week we had volleyball tryouts. I've been playing on the JV team for the past two years, and I had no problem with that since all my friends were also on it and thats usually how it works (freshman and sophomores are on JV). But this year, most of the juniors including my good friends got pulled up to varsity. I'll admit it, it really hurts. I feel I'm decent enough to be on Varsity. Plus, I feel really embarrassed that I'm a junior on a JV team. So anyway, I'm stuck on JV with a bunch of freshman who have never played before and a few other juniors who aren't very good.. (The few sophomores who play got pulled up to Varsity.) So, is it even worth my time to play? I do not want to play in college, nor am I tall or good enough to. I play travel, but its not really a serious team. Some people on the team are caddy b*tches and I don't even want to deal with them, which would be one reason to quit. Plus we practice every day which is such a big commitment, and I really need to focus on my grades this year. But on the other hand, I don't want to let down the JV coach, because hes a nice guy. Plus volleyball has been such a big part of my life since I was in 5th grade and I don't know if its time to give it up.. Being put on the JV team has made me realize that volleyball just isn't really my thing and maybe its time to find something I'm really good at.

So, what are you opinions on this? Also, what are some ways to help me decide what to choose? Thank you!!

Ok, so I saw the midnight premiere of the movie... Which was awesome btw.. But now that Harry Potter is over for good, I feel empty. Like all today I've felt seriously depressed about it. I see that everyone is writing like "Its the end of my childhood" blahblah and it just makes me so sad! I read all the books and saw all the movies, and I was never a huge Harry Potter nerd, but I always did really like it.. But I guess it just hit me now how much of an impact it had on my childhood..

So does anyone else feel extremely depressed that Harry Potter is over?

Plants from New York state were selectively bred with plants from the state of Texas. These new plants thrived in Arkansas - what characteristic of the offspring plants caused them to thrive in their new home?

a. Having all of the characteristics of both parent plants.

b. Having some of the genetic material from each parent plant.

c. Having inherited the ability to thrive in all climates.

d. Having inherited both northern and southern climate genes.

Ok well this might sound a little weird so bear with me..

Recently I've had to do workouts for the upcoming lacrosse season, so its been a lot of sprints. However, we do this one drill in particular which makes me, like, catch a cold? We're on a basketball court and we'll have to run to one side of the gym to the other. Kind of like a suicide. But anyways, this drill is pretty difficult, and it takes about 10-15 minutes to do. Afterwards, I start to get a headache, I think its my sinuses. Then I'll sneeze like 20 times in a row.. Then the rest of the day I'll have cold symptoms. Like sore throat, runny nose and sneezy. Its so weird! This happens every time we do this drill!

Any ideas what it could be?

Ok, theres this guy who goes to my school and I think hes really cute. The thing is, I have no classes with him and hes not in my grade, hes a year ahead of me. We're friends on facebook.. and thats pretty much it. How can I start talking to him without seeming creepy? Like if I were to IM him on facebook what would I say? Or how else can I start talking to him?

Btw, I never see him in the hallways so just like starting a conversation is out.

I was planning on buying tickets to see the midnight showing of Harry Potter this week, but most of the shows are sold out. However, some of the theaters have tickets available for the digital projection screening. Should I buy tickets to this, or would it be a ripoff? What is digital projection, and how is it different from a traditional movie projector?

Are there any myths about Hades besides the one about him capturing Persephone? I'm doing a project for school and I need a story about him! Thanks

Are Charlie Sheen & Emilio Estevez brothers or just half brothers? I know that they have the same dad and that Charlie adopted his fathers stage name.. But I'm just curious if their full or half.

Recently, my friend and I noticed that our Asian friend takes advantage of us alot. (My friend and I are both white.) Our Asian friend constantly needs rides everywhere because her parents never drive her, thus they never give us rides either. And last year we took my Asian friend on vacation and she didn't offer to pay for anything. When I confronted she simply said "I have no money." So we always have to give her rides places and she never returns the favor, and she never paid me back for any money she ever borrowed! Quiet frankly, me and my other friend are disgusted. We have no idea what to do or what to say to her. Help please?

(I were saying she was Asian because we thought that might be part of the problem, not that theres anything wrong with Asians but that they just have a different culture then we do.)

I have a project for english for the novel East of Eden by John Steinbeck. Can someone help me with these 3 important things?

-Can someone please tell me the classification of the novel? (e.g. realistic, naturalistic, historical)

- I also need 3 important quotes from the book, one from the beginning, middle and end. These quotes have to explain the beginning, middle, and end of the novel and why the quote was chosen. I also need their page number

-I also need to know the theme of the novel.

Thank you so much!!!

I wanted to add my high school's network on facebook, but it didn't let me because it said I didn't select a valid year. It only provided 2009-2012. So my question is, when will the high school networks add "2013?"
