  • Prom ideas? (missing actual prom)?

    It's my senior year and our schools prom happens to fall on the same weekend as my robotics team international competition. I wasn't able to attend last year either. I'm really upset because I have always wanted to go to prom.

    All the upperclassmen on my robotics team are having a "makeup prom" the weekend after our competition/actual prom. Any ideas on what we could do activity wise. We are all going to dress up and go out to dinner but we don't know what to do after that.

  • Would the phrase "She had had her momentary flowering" be a polysyndeton?

    Polysyndeton is a literary technique in which conjunctions (e.g. and, but, or) are used repeatedly in quick succession, often with no commas, even when the conjunctions could be removed.

    I'm confused on whether this phrase would be a polysyndeton or one of the other options: ambiguity, paradox, simile or periodic structure.

  • Can I bleach or dye this ottoman?

    I bought this ottoman from target a few years ago to match my room but now it doesn't. I still love the piece and don't want to get rid of it but it clashes with my room. Target doesn't sell the ottoman anymore but Walmart has one similar

    How would I go about dyeing this fabric? I am wanting either a white, off white, yellow or green color.

    Could I use a fabric paint? Please any ideas help.

  • What were the pros & cons of the New Right (Ronald Reagan)?

    I was gone this day in class and it is very confusing to me. What was good about the New Right and what was bad about it?

    Was it necessary for the era even though not everyone liked it?

    Even a simple summary of what it was would be really helpful

  • Can't stop crying over a friend leaving for college?

    I just met him this year but he has made my life so much better. Another friend and I always plan him surprises and the three of us have bonded so much over the year. He is about to graduate and the 2 of us aren't.

    Yesterday was our last competition we would ever compete at together and it became really emotional towards the end. I knew I would cry, and I expected my other friend to cry too. But the two of us were sobbing. He tried to ignore us because he didn't want to start crying as well. But on the bus ride back after my 5th time sobbing in 3hrs he came of and sat next to me sobbing and we both just talked about how great this year had been.

    Ever since then I can't stop crying. I know I will be able to see him and talk to him again next year. I honestly don't know why I can't stop crying.

  • How does this series converge?

    Σ n!/(2n)!

    n=0

    I'm using the ratio test and I simplified it to

    lim | (n+1)(2n!)/(2(n+1))! |

    n-> ∞

    but now I'm stuck and I don't know how to prove it any further

  • What to do with a ton of pictures? Gift Ideas?

    One of my really good guy friend's birthday is in a few weeks and I have collected a ton of pictures of him from snapchat and just random pictures I've taken.

    They are all pictures of him making stupid faces and I want to make a collage or some kind of gift to give him but I don't know how to do it.

    I've thought about a picture frame with a collage of all the pictures, but is that too weird because they are all of him. I don't know what he would do with it.

    He is very nerdy/geeky if that helps.

  • Ideas for "Makeup Prom" activities?

    So a bunch of my friends and I are going to be missing our schools prom because of a robotics competition and we want to plan a makeup prom.

    We get all dresses up, take pictures, go out to dinner….then what?

  • Iron on transfers for t-shirts?

    My friend and I are making a ton of t-shirts with different designs on them for my other friends and I'm trying to find the best brand to use for this. I want them to last as long as possible. Can anyone give me some brands or advice I could use?

    I've been researching around a ton but I really can't tell what brand is going to be the best. I really don't want to spend more than $40 total for these transfers but I need quite a few.

    Most of the t-shirt will just be white font onto black t shirt/ black font onto white t-shirt

  • I'm going to miss prom :(?

    I have been dreaming about prom since I was little and constantly am looking at prom dresses online and in stores. I love getting dressed up and wearing something that you can only wear to an event like prom.

    I joined my schools Robotics team and love it but the international competition, the peak of the season, is the same weekend as prom. I want to go to the competition because my team has worked so hard to get there and I don't want to miss out. But I also want to go to my schools prom…

    There is a chance I can drive back a day early and make it back just in time for prom but most of my friends are on the Robotics team and so I would be alone at prom. Sure I could find a group of acquaintance but I know prom will only be fun if I go with my friends.

    I'm really torn because prom is really important to me. I just don't know what to do. I thought about throwing a make up prom, all my friends dress up and get together and act like we are going to prom, but I feel like no one will want to do that. They aren't as into getting dresses up and renting a limo like I am.

    I just need advice, tips, ideas. This has really been depressing me lately. I see other people at my school getting asked, showing each other their dresses, planning their night and it just makes me so upset about the whole situation.
