1 AnswerHalloween1 decade agoHOW CAN I BECOME A CITIZEN OF THE UK?
I'm 19, no longer a student, and single w/ no family whatsoever tied to the UK in any way. I want to move over there and just do whatever work I can find. Nothing in particular. Just live a normal life over there like I would here in the States. I have friends over there I've met on the Internet (all of whom I've confirmed are real through Skype, Facebook, tumblr, etc) and I want to save up, buy my ticket, and just stay w/ them for a month at a time or so and just look for a place to work (again, nothing that needs a specialty degree or anything, just average work) and then look for a small flat to apartment/flat to live in. Is it possible to gain just a normal work visa?

4 AnswersRock and Pop1 decade agoWHAT DO I DO IF MY FEELINGS CHANGED?
Okay so I was "talking" to my now-gf for a few weeks beginning in the middle of January. Up until we made it official I loved talking to her, loved seeing her on Skype (she lives two hours away), and REALLY loved seeing her on the weekends and spending as much time as possible w/ her. Well the weekend just before this past one (the weekend before Valentine's weekend) we decided to make it official and everything. Now I've begun to have feelings of apprehension and kind of have a longing to be single again... Truth be told I haven't been truly single for a year and a half. I went from a year and a half long relationship RIGHT into another one that lasted a few weeks and before THAT one was even over I was talking to my now gf. I know.....sh*tty way to go about things. PLEASE don't bash me for that I feel bad enough about it. Point being, I haven't been single for a while, I've always been wrapped around someones finger. Theeeeeennnnnnn we slept together after our Valentine's date... =/ Just afterward we were talking about it and other stuff and at some point she almost let slip "I love you." She stopped herself by changing it to "I love yo-......your body..." or something along those lines. I knew exactly what she was going to say though. A few weeks ago I told her I could see myself falling in love with her, but I didn't know she'd be dropping it on me THAT soon. And now that I look back...I really don't know if I could feel that strongly about her when it comes right down to it... :( I really f*cking hate myself for this though... I just want to know how I could maybe let her down a lil' easily, in light of recent events (i.e. sleeping together). I promise to God, Allah, Buddha, and any other diety you want me to swear to that I didn't use her as a booty call.

My paper is on "Three Principles of the People" by Sun Yat-sen and how these principles can be used for State Organization. I really just need to know how to start it.

1 AnswerHomework Help1 decade agoHOW DO I DANCE IN A NIGHTCLUB?
I'm a 18 year old white male, bear in mind.
I plan on going w/ some friends of mine to a local club sometime...but I've never ever been to one before. Granted I did go to two proms, but even then, I felt like an idiot dancing.
Hence my problem. I don't know how to dance. Does anyone have any advice as to how guys should dance to rap/R&B in a club w/o looking like a TOTAL @ss. lol. I don't want any ridiculous breakdancing tips...just some simple dance moves (or whatever you call them).
If you could post any decent "instructional" videos or whatever that'd be cool too. :) Thanks a lot!
4 AnswersDancing1 decade agoWHAT MADE YOUR DAY GREAT TODAY?
Basically I had the best day ever apart from having to go to work at 7 am until 3 this afternoon, but the girl I'm talking to came into town today from the city where she goes to school and we had an amazing date tonight and I just want to know if anyone else had a day as good as mine and why!?!? :D
8 AnswersPolls & Surveys1 decade agoDON'T YOU THINK THE PRICE OF THIS TICKET IS A LIL' OUTRAGEOUS?
Okay, so I'm ALL for people paying their "debts to society" for any law they may break. However, don't you think f*cking $228 is a lil' MUCh for "failing to stop at a redlight?" And it's not like I even freakin' just ran the motherf*cker! I stopped. Sat there. I was talking to my girlfriend. I looked both ways. Then pulled out. No one was coming. Nothing. Not a F*CKING single person/cat/bug was hurt in the process. And the funniest thing is...I didn't even know I did it. I was paying no attention to the light. Just paying attention to what my gf was saying and to the fact that no one was coming towards me for miles in either direction. Now I would've been FINE w/ maybe $150 or so? But really?! $228 motherf*cking dollars!??! Isn't that a lil' too much?!
Now don't get me wrong people. I'm not saying I DIDN'T do it. I'm sure I did. Otherwise I wouldn't be staring at this stupid carbon copy of my ticket. But don't you think that's a lil' pricey given the circumstances? Esp. the day after freaking Christmas?
1 AnswerOther - Cars & Transportation1 decade agoWhat can I buy my VERY new girlfriend for Christmas?
I'm 18 and she's 17 so it's not like we're a "serious" couple, but I wanted to get her something small and slightly inexpensive just to be "in the spirit of Christmas." :) What are some suggestions. She dresses w/ like a combo of hippie and American Eagle. lol. She likes metal and rock music. etc. I just need small ideas that most girls would like pretty much no matter what. thanks!
7 AnswersChristmas1 decade agoWHAT DO YOU THINK OF THIS TATTOO?
http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=3626423&id=5...
I'm a huge Coheed & Cambria fan, so that explains the dragonfly and the quote is from my ABSOLUTE favorite song by them. I know it's a bad idea to get a band logo, but their music has helped me through some sh*t in the past and the quote is an overall spirit-lifter. :D Tell me what you think.
I designed it myself, btw.
9 AnswersTattoos1 decade agoGIRLS HELP A GUY OUT: IS IT SO WRONG TO MOVE ON?
My ex and I have been broken up since summer, but we vowed to stay friends. It worked, for a season. We eventually became friends w/ benefits and it was really wearing on both of us emotionally. So we stopped all that bullcrap. Well we were doing good for a while and we slipped up and it happened again. All of that doesn't matter though. What I need you to know is that we fought...CONSTANTLY...all after we broke up. I grew weary of it, tried to break it off, and she freaked and made me feel like complete and utter sh*t b/c she "has a lot going on right now and doesn't have many ppl to rely on." She used that about 2-3 times since we broke up. Basically I wasn't allowed to go anywhere w/ girls (even though I did) and when I did, and told her about it (which was most of the time mind you) she STILL freaked out at me. I have a lot of friends that are girls, and she HATED that. (Bear in mind we're still broken up).
Okay...so we haven't talked much this past week due to school being a b*tch and just everything was stressful in that area. Well last night she started talking about drifting and whatnot, and I basically told her that it was bound to happen at some point and stuff and it just escalated into this HUGE argument about why we should just drift and our friendship end on decent terms instead of me just meeting a girl, going on a date or two, and she finding out about it and our friendship ends on horrible terms. I've told her I have options available to me (girl-wise) and that if I just decide to pursue one, she's going to hate me.
Honestly, I just want to move past everything. I feel like I can't really live w/ her in my life. Am I wrong for this? Is it so wrong to move on w/ my life?

2 AnswersTVs1 decade agoCAN THE PLAYER HOLDING THE FOOTBALL GET A PENALTY FOR "FACEMASKING"?
I was watching the Florida State Univ. at Univ. of Florida game and Tebow had the ball, but he also facemasked an FSU player for a good amount of yardage (still holding the ball mind you) and never got a penalty for it. Was it just overlooked? Or can the person WITH the ball get away with facemasking an opponent?
I'm a UF fan, btw. So I don't really care what you have to say about the call, or lack thereof. I just want to know if the player w/ the ball can get away w/ things other players can't. So please don't come on here bashing me for liking Tebow, b/c I'm not a fan of him anyway. lol. Just answer the question at hand.
7 AnswersFootball (American)1 decade agoWHY ARE MY GUMS DOING THIS?
Okay so today I felt a sore spot right at the meeting point of my first two premolars on the top-left side of my mouth. When I look at it, it looks like there's a canker sore there. Is that even possible? Then about 10 minutes ago, I looked at my mouth in a mirror and saw ANOTHER one, only this time, its on my bottom gums, near the front. It's not touching my teeth at all.
I had one like the first one mentioned come up about 3 weeks ago, but it was gone after, like, a week and a half, maybe? About the normal life span of a canker sore.
But can someone tell me what's going on w/ my mouth, what these are caused from, and how I can make them go away and prevent them?
