Leaders who messed up?
Hey, so I'm writing an essay and I need a couple more examples. I'm trying to prove individualism is bad so I need individualists who messed up. ie Hitler-do I need to explain?, Steve Jobs made technology demand increase, etc.
AND JUST SO WE'RE CLEAR THIS IS A MOCK ESSAY, I don't agree with most of my opinions, I just need quick leaders who did something that can be seen as bad. Thanks!
2 AnswersOther - Society & Culture7 years agoPopular Expressions? (Bilingual people please help!)?
So I am looking for popular expressions- not translated one, the actual real, commonly used expressions- in other languages that mean, in simplest ways, "Whatever".
For example:
Latin- "Que Sera, Sera" which means "Whatever will be, will be".
Spanish- "Eso sí que es" which means "It is what it is".
French- "C'est la vie" which means "That's life".
I've been looking for German, Italian, Chinese, etc expressions but nothings coming up, so (again, without translating) I was wondering if there are any fluent speakers in pretty much any language who would know?
Thank you so much!
4 AnswersLanguages7 years agoWhat do I need to pass?
So while I feel stupid having to ask a math question about my math exam...
If I am getting a 60% in Math and the final exam is worth 40% of my grade, and I need at the very least a 50% to pass the class, what is the lowest I can get on the exam and still pass? AKA as long as I get 45%+ on the exam, I will pass.
Thanks, Jes!
2 AnswersStandards & Testing7 years agoWhat Monologue should I do?
So I am going in to an audition for a character who is a young mom (late teenager 16-19) and she's struggling to raise this new born baby while on an abusive relationship. I need to prepare a monologue that is no more than three minutes, so my question is, what sort of monologue do you think I should do, or exactly which monologue do you think I should do.
I dont know much about the play, so I don't want a dark one, or in turn, comedic. I want something that Will hopefully cover my bases. Thanks.
2 AnswersPerforming Arts8 years agoQuick! I need the worst music on the planet!?
Okkkaaaay. So my friend's family invited me camping and it will be a five hour road trip so I asked if I could prink music so I need some of the worst, most annoying, completely absurd music there is.
They are not a hard core Christian family or whatever but a song is all swears for 5 hours I will not be impressed. Thanks.
5 AnswersLyrics8 years agoHow do I manage my hair?
I have really think hair, so thick that a week ago I was able to cute out an inch thick and I can't even tell. I like having thick hair but it's so bushy that It never just lies flat. By the time it's reached the last few inches of my hair it's this poofy mess of hair. Brushing doesn't help and neither did the conditioner I got marketed to controlling bushy hair.
I can straighten it and that helps but I have so much hair that it takes forever, so my question is, besides the regular ol' "oh just cut the ends frequently" or whatever, what can I do to have my hair looking a lot less wild?
Basically think about the hair in shampoo commercials. They manage to have a ton of hair without any problems like me.
Thanks

5 AnswersBaby Names8 years agoHow do I dress to myself?
I know that there are certain styles that work depending on your body type, hair colour, eyes etc so I want to know what is normally aimed for me.
- I have brown hair that reaches my chest. The bangs are straight accross. I have really thick hair. I can literally braid my hair into 8 braids that are about 2 or 3 cm's in diameter each.
-My eyes are blue and from a quick internet search I'd say around almond shape to thin almond shape. I dunno.
-My ears are peirces with two bottom peircings on both ears and my ears are really tiny.
-I am 5'2 and about 115 pounds and am 16.
-My body type is pretty average. I'm not small or large, like I said pretty average in body type.
So I'm not sure what would be good or what would work for me but thats that. Thanks

2 AnswersFashion & Accessories8 years agoA song for beginners?
I've been doing musical theatre for years and I love acting but when It comes down to it, Idance and singing just aren't my strong suit.
I have a mandatory audition coming up and i need to get a song that is more than just twinkle twinkle little star, but also doesn't need me to be an opera singer.
So the question is, what song will do for me?
The show is a rewrite of Saturday Night Fever.

16 AnswersWomen's Health8 years agoHow do you re seal a chip bag perfectly?
A tradition of mine is to go out to my dads house every spring break, and I always pull april fools day pranks. The beauty of this is that I almost always leave the day of April Fools so I set them all up around midnight and leave a few hours later to go back to my moms house in another province.
Every year I do the exact same pranks as last year, and I add one.
This year I'm thinking of taking a used bags of chips and filling it with something else, but that would require needing to reseal the bag. If there's one thing my dad and step mom always have, is chips. So it would be perfect, but I need to know how to reseal it to make it look like it had never been opened.
Thanks!

I am looking for something for my character to always be saying, she's a teenage girl and It doesn't need to be anything extrordanair.
If you recall friends, Chandler would always say "could I BE anymore..." Because thats just the way he talks, so basically, if anyone has anything like a catchphrase or just something she repeats often, that would be great, thanks!
