  • I hate my life, what should I do?

    I don't like my life, I have parents who don't care - they smoke in the house considering I have Athsma and a bad cough, I have 3 sisters and only like 1 of those, I get bullied t school and only had 1 or 3 friends, I have a low self-asteem, I am not very clever (Maths and ICT) are the only thing I am clever at. I have a lisp (when I say things it's just embarrasses me), two teachers embarrassed me and I have dandruff in my hair, and an itchy scrotum. The only things I actually enjoy about life is playing on the computer or playing with my best friend (which doesn't happen anymore) because we dont see each other often, meaning I am on the computer too much. I have a dodgy sleep pattern (stay awake most nights), always late to school, and I always get the blame for things.

    What should I do ?

  • Don't feel any good :(.....?

    Hi guys, I am not feeling very well as it says as the title

    My head is spinning and giving me a headache, I have stomach chest pains, my left leg is hurting too. I am coughing yellow mucus every 2 minutes, I did have a cold 2 days ago and a blocked noise, so I made a shower and the steam cleaned it up (now my noise is crusty and hurts when I pick it) - the cold is when this started happening.

    I don't smoke but my mum does.

    I want to go to the doctors in the morning (7 hours away) and try to fix it.

    I usually sleep late and drink fizzy fluids or tea, milk but barely any water.

    If anyone can help I will gladly appreciate it.

    Thanks I feel like I want to kill myself.

  • How can I convince my mum to get a certain internet provider?

    Mum is getting some internet soon, but I want her to get the certain one which is Virgin Media, because it can download a 5GB Movie in 7 minutes, and a whole album in 5 seconds, and seeing as I download hundreds of stuff, I need this. At the moment it would take about a week to download a 5GB Movie, it is supported where I am and it only costs £35-£45

    Is there any way to convince her it is good and perfect?

  • How should I partition my Hard Drive?

    Well I want to partition my hard drive, here are my plans, but I do not know if this will work

    1 partition for games, applications (exe) - Adobe Master Collection, Steam, etc, etc. My C Partition for Windows 7 and another partition for Windows XP

    So 3 partitions so I can open all my Applications/Files from any operating system

    But I want to know if this will work and will it affect my PC performance, and also how much should I give each partition and how do you install a game?

  • Adobe CS5 Master Collection?

    I was planning to install this on my HP Mini 110-3000, and I would wonder if it would slow me down when it is not running

    And if I remove it from startup, and I have done a lot of tweaks to speed it up, I do not know however it will slow me down, I do not care about screen size or nothing like that, and if I would NEED 2GB Ram I would be willing

    Thanks, Joe
