I like spending time here, getting to kow more about the world around me. And what better way than to be here on Yahoo! (No I am not being paid to say that, but I just wanted to put that down)

  • Am I likely pregnant?

    I have been taking birth control at the exact same time for the past 2 weeks after my period and before that a week of antibiotics. (I finished taking my antibiotics before my period and after which started a new pack of pills). My BF and i did it without a condom but he did pull out. 6 days after that I ate Chick fil and I've been nauseous with abdominal pain/cramps, belching, flatulance, and minor headaches. I've been feeling this for 4 days now. Are these signs of a pregnancy? I feel that its too early to get pregnant after 6 days. or it could be food poisoning? I have been taking pregnancy tests and they have been coming out negative. i read online and pharmacists told me that false negatives are possible but i also know that the tests only detect a specific hormone and the birth control pills should affect it. My next period wouldn't start until the 31st so i still have a ways to go. But i feel better when i take peptobismol.

    SO i am really confused here. What do you guys think? Am I likely preggos? Should i just wait for my period to come?

  • Is it better to be labeled as a Graphic Designer, Visual Designer, or a Visual Communications Designer?

    I am a person who likes to do print and web-based projects. Including branding, visual identity, and research. But I am unsure as to what to label myself. Any ideas?

  • Need help making an about me paragraph for my portfolio?

    Here is what I have so far:

    "As an Illustrator and Visual Communications designer, I believe that even after receiving my Bachelor of Arts degree from California State University of Northridge, having an appetite for learning new skills is an important asset to have. Reading books, viewing tutorials listening to lectures, and connecting with other professionals about the design world feeds my curiosity and help sharpen my skills.

    In this constantly evolving industry, I keep myself open to new ideas and projects such as marketing materials, packaging, vector illustrations, visual identity, infographics, social media, and web design. While also helping those who want to achieve their business goals through effective branding, unique designs, and a helpful push in the right direction. "

    I don't know how to end it and I dont know if I started strong. I want to sound confident but also super friendly. Also, talking about myself is super difficult for me as I have low self-esteem. But what drives me is my goal to have a successful career in Graphic Design, or Visual Communicator.

  • How do I know that this is a legit company/job?

    So I was applying for a Graphic Design job through LinkedIn and I got accepted. But judging by the benefits and pay, it sounds way too good to be true. I mean I am a Graphic Designer with 2 years experience. I don't think I deserve this pay and job.

    The two people who emailed me do have LinkedIn Accounts but no profile pic. And on the footer of the first email, I got sent was a LinkedIn Security Footer for authentication. What scares me is that even on the company website there are warnings of recruitment fraud. For an interview, it was through Google Hangout in chat. Also, the job is fully working from home and they, the people who emailed me, will give me money to make an office from home.

    I don't know this is too good to be true. Maybe it's a confidence issue? What else can I do to make sure that this is legit???

  • Do you guys think a live action Yugioh movie would be possible to make?

    I'm talking about fantastic CGI, amazing sound effects, music, cast selection. It would be awesome if we had the beginning where yugi gets the millennium puzzle and meets Yami Yugi and so they both defeat Kiba and Peguasus-- okay okay im spazing out!

    So what do you think?

  • Should I make a PSA against smoking weed in public?

    Its for a graphic design class project. Lately, everyone s been smoking that smelly crap. It s really annoying and I have a 7 month old nephew so it bothers me that ppl smoke that whenever they want. Might as well let cigarette smokers do whatever, too.

  • My cat has been behaving very weak lately, what could it mean?

    She's about one and a half years old. She eat and drinks regularly, but when it comes to bending over or jumping to the window, or just walking in general she very slow. Unfortunately I don't have the money to take her to the vet, I hope its not too serious.

    Also, another one of my cats has gone missing for the past month, I assume its totally gone already. Could it be that she's mourning. Also, a neighbor got a new kitten, is that a reason?

  • Is it alright to use an image on google for a design project with a client?

    I need a good image of iced coffee but I have no where else to get one. I have no photoshop experience or a decent camera. Yes I have experience with Adobe Illustrator but should that be enough? Can I use images from the web, if so how?

    Would it be plagiarizing?

  • Is Adobe Illustrator a good program for drawing? Like freehand?

    Like not just for Graphic Design, and I m not talking about just using the pen tool either. Maybe the pencil? I don t know. I wanted to know for sure before spending $300 to own one myself.

    I would love to draw fantastic anime pieces. Do anime artists use this program?

  • When do I harden off my seedlings?

    I barely planted the seeds in a seed mix in a plastic covered dome. This is my second time doing this but my 1st time failed because I harden them off too early? I think it's was most likely because I left them under the sun with the cover on? Oops.

    Should I harden them off when their little stems are too white? Or when their 'real leaves' start to show up? If so how long do I have to wait before their 'real leaves' appear? Because the last time, I've waited too long and the seedling became too long and white.

    Any advice for a amateur gardener?

    One more thing. By hardening them do I transplant them first with potting soil or what?

  • Do I cover my alyssum seeds with the soil mix?

    So I was thinking that since they're are so small and that many other gardening books and people say that I should do so, maybe I should just leave th exposed. I will be covering the cell pack with a plastic wrap to they shouldn't be able to blow away.
