Ok so me and my boyfriend (now fiance') seem to keep getting stuff thrown at us. He has a past..planned to never get married played his life away and now turned his life around. He is an ex marine now preacher who also has a good job bringing in good money every week. I will be finishing college soon and we are planning to get married when I do. We're in love he's the ONE and our families LOVE eachother. Sounds perfect right? Well he's in debt..bad, had his name changed by an adoption process but wants his real name back before we get married, has no insurance or tags because he lost his liscense to a DUI when he was in the service and now has to wait a year to get it back...my question is just for some advice. I am a huge planner and worrier and this man means the WORLD to me...I'm just not sure what to do. I want more than anything to be his wife and to have a family once I get settled into my future job after graduation. Is it possible for this to all work out or are we just holding onto a dream that is impossible.I guess it just kind of threw a wrench into my "perfect planning"haha but, It is absolutely worth EVERYTHING to me so not being with him is not an option. Anyone know what we should do?

I am an extremely spiritual person. I have always felt very inuitive.My mom even swears by this. However I have always been a little skeptic even though I do quite often feel very very "different". I have been told that I am an "empath" before and I truly can't be in a crowded room sometimes because I get overwhelmed with other's emotions. When I was a child my parents say that I would always be looking at things they could not see,was almost startlingly imaginative,and I was also very aware of other people even as a baby. I have even had experiences with talking to my brother (who we lost to an accident),according to my parents, even though I was so young that I do not really remember. Lately, I feel that this awareness of the spiritual world has been getting more and more developed. I have had a few astral projection experiences as well as very easily can become hypnotized and see worlds and things that I have never seen prior. My great grandmother and grandmother both have the gift of prophetic dreams and I definitely feel like I may have inherited that. I have what most people will call de'ja'vu so often that it's almsot annoying! Recently, I tried using a ouija board. We began noticing that the board was extremely active when I was using it with someone and when I wasn't it seemed to halt. I felt like I had a sort of mediator role in the experience and am just curious if any of this means anything? Is it possible that I have some abilities that I am not completely using. If so, is there any way that I could expand them and develop them more? I have just grown very curious.Thank you!

I am a sophmore in college working toward a major in Nursing. However, I have become very unsure about my career choice. For one, I am an extremely artistic person and the long study hours and sciences have left me without the capability to enjoy any of the things I once loved. Every person I talk to keeps telling me how nursing is the only real job that I should be trying to get a degree in. Don't get me wrong, I love people and especially love children and adore anatomy and physiology. I enjoy the idea of helping people as well as learning the things needed to help them in life or death situations. I just feel lost. I feel as if there is something more or something that could combine all of my talents that I have been blessed with more than nursing could. The college I attend does not offer much so it could result in a transfer. I am just asking for opinions and options for someone like myself who is a bit unsure. I will be applying for the school of nursing this coming summer and do not want to have wasted all of these hours and credits if I do not love it. Thank you so much to anyone who as suggestions or input!

I am a nursing major and know that it is what I want to do. I love the idea of helping people and pushing myself in a responsible direction. However, I have an extreme passion for theatre and have done it my whole life. When I decided on a nursing major, I gave up theatre for my studies, but I am feeling extremely incomplete without it. My question is, is it possible to get a degree in nursing and then get my masters in theatre and acting ? Any suggestions and help is much appreciated!

I am beginning to write a novel in which the grim reaper is the love interest. It will be a paranormal romance between a human girl and death himself. The plot so far is that she will be in some sort of accident and meet him but part of the twist is that she is only in a coma so she can't stay unless she chooses death (at first they don't know that) I am also going to incorporate all hallow's eve somehow and I'm just...stuck! I need some plot ideas and I DEFINATELY want some kind of huge twist that will leave the readers saying "WOW, I didn't see that coming". I have thought about maybe having it be the reincarnations of Hade's and Persephone or something but I don't want to be too cliche'. I am open to ANY suggestions or ideas!!! Please and thank you :)

Ok this is the yr. I need to be figuring out what I want to do with my life and I'm SOOOO lost. I know that's natural but here's the thing. I'm 100% going to college and definately wanting to be married and have kids in my life. I LOVE theatre but I know that it wouldn't make for a good living foundation:/. I'm a super hard worker and a good ppl. and kid person. I would also like to somehow feel like I was helping people or working for my Lord and Savior. I'm super creative and I never give up. I have a good tolerance for everything but math and death or surgical type jobs. Any ideas of possible majors or jobs I should consider???I'm willing to do technical schools 2yr. programs 4 year Universities or 5 yrs for a masters if need be. Please and thank you! <3

Ok my left rib has had a small lump that has been in pain for now going on 3 months. I have seen a doctor 3 times and had an ultra sound, CT scan, and chest X-ray and the doctor's pretty much looked at me and said "I can't see why anything is wrong there is NOTHING there". Well now new symptoms have developed that I am not sure if are related. So I went BACK to the doctor and had blood work done all of which came up NEGATIVE!!!! I'm so lost....the pain is always there even without physical activity and the lump is easily felt with pressure which causes more pain. Here are my symptoms all of which may not be related.....:

-rib pain +lump

-swollen (only one on same side as rib lump) lymph nodes

-dizziness

-weight loss

-headache

-FATIGUE!

btw I have experiended NO trauma to my ribs it just showed up.

So anyone have ANY idea what this could be or what step I should take next??????????...PLEASE THANK YOU!!!!

Ok I have had this place under my left rib that has felt weird for about a month now. It feels squishy and painful when I touch it and it feels like it is either on my very bottom rib or just under it. When I work out with my team and do crunches it feels like my rib is stabbing into the area...I have rather large ribs and this hurts quite a bit. Finaly after a month today I have been able to semi-ignore it unless it just flairs up but today after countless crunches i touched it cause the area is swollen and cried it hurt worse than EVER....anyone know what on earth this could be!!!!!????? I'm starting to think a doctor visit is necessary but I am curious if anyone has any suggestions on what it could be in case it's not too serious andI can leave the doctor out of it????? THANX!!!!! :D

I have the lead in the play and it means the WORLD to me but my parents want me in volleyball and i have been on the team for 5 years. I just CANT give one or the other up so i NEED alternate solutions....another problem is the play will be over the last week of august but that means I will miss volleyball practice a bit on those first weeks and my parents are DYING for me to be on varsity this year..........WHAT DO I DO!!!!!!??????PLEASE HELP THANKS

ok,I have a short athletic build but I have all my life been on the chubby side. I'm sick of being the big one or the "big boned" one! I have tried countless ways to lose weight and I just CAN'T it just seems to fluctuate between the same numbers no matter what I do. I have been to several dietitions, had my metabolism and thyroid checked, and even done studies to see if things were just off but to no avail. No diets are helping and except for with a stomache bug I haven't been able to lose more than 8 pounds over months of dieting and I just wonder what I should do. I'm involved in sports and athletic programs so it's not an excersise issue. And please don't tell me I'm fine the way I am I would really like to lose some and be an average weight. I just want for once in my life someone to ask the question "How much weight have you lost? you look great". ANY SUGGESTION??? THANKS.

Ok I am in a play and I need to find a way to make a dress very cinderella looking. Its a light lavender silk gown and i'm putting crinilin(dont know if thats right way to spell it lol)under it to make it look POOFY.But I need something make it look more royal and fairytale like. Does anyone have any tips on how to add sparkles...splashes of color...netting...designs...anything to make it stand out more beautifully on stage but hopefully inexpensively???? THANKS :D

My granny gets these really bad "leg cramps" but she won't go to the doctor and it REALLY worries me. I seriously don't think they r just leg cramps b/c she ends up crying and literally on the floor and there's been NOTHING we can do about it. They just stop when they want to and eventually leave all together and then pop up randomly a week or even months later. I don't understand but does anyone know what this could be or if there really are leg cramps this bad and random? Anything that will help it?its pretty scary to watch and know there's no way to help.....

ok so I have unlimited texting and mms but i was just wondering. Can ur cell phone companies check what u are writing or sending and furthermore would it ever cause a problem if they were nosey and did decide to check and found something they didnt like. My cell is not under my name so it makes me even more worried. So can companies like AT&T check your messages or pics u send or get u in trouble with them? thanx. and please don't be perverted it's not like that.

Ok so our musical this year is going to be Beauty and the Beast and I ALWAYS am totally prepared for an auditon but this time I don't have the slightest idea on song choice or monologue. I don't want to be too obviously disney or anything else and I'm definately not sure what monologue would be remotely close. I have a range and I can sing a little alto, mezzo, and mostly saprano 1 so if anyone has any ideas I would appreciate some good audition SONG advice and if you know of a monologue or have an experience with this musical I would appreciate the answer also :)

ok so I have a birthday coming up and I need some help. I would LOVE to do a murder mystery but I might end up either rewriting a script or writing my own for my guests. I would really like to do a DISNEY type theme.(or a vampire type theme since it will be around holloween)so....i want something to kinda revolve around that. such as my friends and us dressing as disney characters or ect...

If anyone has any plot ideas that would help me or suggestions please answer this question. I dont know how to do it but I can picture it in my head. I just need a plot line type idea. THANKS

Could I be a disney face character? If so which one??? I've been looking at this job for some time. I love to act and I adore kids.

Im 5'4 and I wear a size 8 in dress thanks!

heres a little more of an idea

Ok so Bye Bye Birdie auditions for our high school's musical are coming up. Im a freshman but i have GREAT experience in theatre. BUT there's a bunch who do. Being young...I think i could pull off Kim nicely but I dont know how I'll compare. I've had 6 leading roles before but never in this school. IS THERE ANY HOPE? Should I even bother (im trying out no matter what) or just go on and admit to myslef that I'll be in chorus? ALSO ANY SONG SUGGESTIONS FOR AUDITIONS ARE WELCOMED!!!! THANK YOU
