  • How do I tell my friends I'm swtiching schools?

    I decided to switch schools a few weeks ago and I didn't tell my friends because my mom wanted to wait until I was registered. I didn't want to wait so long because I knew they would be upset because we had talked about having high school memories together and stuff. I'm getting registered tomorrow and I planned on telling them all tomorrow, but one of my friends called me today and said that she was going to a different school too. I felt a little relieved that I wouldn't be the only one leaving, so I told her that I was leaving too, but five minutes after we hung up another friend of mine called me and said that she heard I wasn't coming back. I was in complete shock that she knew already and I could barely speak. She sounded really upset and she quickly hung up. I texted her back to tell her not to tell anyone so they could hear it from me and she started asking me why because she thought we would spend high school together! She just seemed really upset because I didn't tell her sooner. So, my question is how should I tell all my friends that I won't be coming back to school? I was going to text them, because there are about ten people I was going to tell, but it seems too impersonal. Should I call every person? I don't even know if I'd have time. I just don't know what to do anymore. And I don't want them to be angry at me for telling them I was going, because I didn't even know until a few weeks ago!

  • Is this the correct answer for my math equation?

    On one of my tests in Algebra it said to simplify this problem: 6n^2 - 4m^2 - 2n^2 + 9m^2

    I'm not very good at this, so I got: 4n - 13m^4

    My teacher wrote this as the right answer: 4n^2 - 15m^2

    What I don't understand is how she got 15. Any explanation for this please?

  • Would it be "citing so-and-so"? Wording help?

    I'm writing something and I can't figure out how to word it. This girl is in a conversation with her dad and this is what I wrote the first time: "Dad, I'm not about to cite The Big Bang Theory." Is that the correct wording? I don't know if I'm having a brain fart or what, but I can't figure out if this is correct. If he begins saying something straight from the show like a famous line, then would it be citing? I think I'm confusing myself right now...

  • How many symphonies did Fanny Mendelssohn Hensel compose?

    I'm writing a compare and contrast essay for Fanny Mendelssohn Hensel and Ludwig van Beethoven. I have a fact on how many symphonies, string quartets, concertos, piano sonatas, sonatas for violin and piano and classical operas that Beethoven composed, so I wanted to put that in my essay along with how many Fanny wrote. Is there anything else that I could compare and contrast with Fanny and Bethoven besides: their both child prodigies, Bethoven's father taught him and encouraged concerts but Fanny's father didn't allow her to play in public, Fanny performed once in public, but Beethoven performed_____(another thing I couldn't find)

  • Thin, wrinkly skin under eyes?

    I've noticed that lately the skin under my eyes are very thin and stretchy. I pulled on the skin during class one day and everyone noticed and thought it was really weird. Also, when I smile, sometimes the skin under my eye(only my right eye) wrinkles and it keeps me from smiling normally because it just blocks my cheek, kind of. I'm not sure how to explain the wrinkling part, but it's just really thin and streches out farther than what I think is normal. Is it just like bags under my eyes? I want to know because I'm seeing a doctor tomorrow about something else, and I want to know if I should mention anything about my eyes.

  • Are there any websites to classify animals?

    I have to do a homework assignment and finish classifying a few animals. Our teacher said to look it up online, but it's really difficult to find the exact answers and I don't want them to be incorrect. Are there any websites that have a list of animals and their classification, or where you can search the classification of animals? I need to know the Kingdom(obviously, animalia) Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species of three different animals and I need to find another two animals and classify them.

  • What is the song at the end of "Found The Gown"?

    I'm not entirely sure which episode it is. But at the end there's a song that's fairly slow and soft, sung by a female, and the lyrics go "I can see that it's right in front of me" and then it goes "yea yea yea yea right in front of me" So you can probably tell why I can't find the song. There is like no lyrics! Does anyone know what song it was? My information probably doesn't help. The show is on TLC. That's about all I got.

    I'm doing a persuasive essay on how bowling is the best sport and I'm putting how it is particularly safe, but I read an article that about bowling and says "no one has ran down an alley and gotten injured from the machinery" is that true?

  • Girls only!! Please help!!?

    I'm thirteen, about to be fourteen, and I started my period in October two years ago. Luckily I have an irregular period, so it only comes once every two months. But sometimes it'll come for January but not February or March and come for April and May. And I never get any cramps. But I have a VERY heavy flow and it lasts for about 7-10 days. Sometimes when I walk around the mall for an hour I have to change my pad. I've never used a tampon before because it just scares me, but I'm tired of waking up and having my underwear soaked and having to change my sheets when I had TWO large pads. And whenever I walk around, I feel like I have crap in my pants. I want to try a tampon but I'm really scared people say it doesn't hurt, but it's uncomfortable, but I'm a huge baby! I have no idea what to do! Should I try one? And how do I even insert it? Would help me not feel like I'm going to leak? I have no clue!!

  • My other question got cut in half?

    My other question got cut and this is the other part: from the cookie jar. But I didn't eat it." I replied coldly.

    "I'm serious."

    "Nice to meet you Serious! I'm Tulia!"

    "Tulia, please just tell me the truth."

    "Okay. I hate people. People hate me. I have no 'friends'. No one wants to be my friend." I stood up, "I pick fights with innocent people. I hurt others. I'm standoffish." I began walking towards him, "I lie my way out of situations. I jeopardize the safety of others. I'm willing to hurt others physically or emotionally, with no remorse." I placed my hands on the chairs armrests, with my face inches from his, "Now. Would you like to know what I'm actually like?" I hissed. His eyes were emotionless as they stared into mine.

    "I think I already know." 

    What do you think? Should I continue? Should I scratch the prologue? All I really want to know is an idea for a title.

    Anything is great. Thanks!

  • Help with my story??! Title?!?

    So I wrote this prologue for a story idea I came up with, but I don't think it explains the plot very good. But what happens is a 14 year old girl becomes a Freshman in high school and she gets in a fight and gets kicked out. But she gets sent to a psychiatrist because everyone at the school thinks she has Anti Social Behaviour, but she's still in denial about it.

    Here's the prologue:(Should I even include it?) As I sat down in the chair, I looked around the room. Grey everywhere. Grey ceiling. Grey walls. Even white and grey photos on the wall. The only colorful thing in the room was my red leather chair and his blue leather chair. I brushed my hands over my skirt and realized I was still sitting up straight, back not touching the chair.

    Suddenly the grey door flung open and he entered the room, flipping through a clipboard. "Hello, Tulia. How are you?" He said, looking up only once when he said my name.

    "I was good. Until I saw your face." I replied, lowering my chin. He sat down in his chair and finally put the clipboard down.

    "Very funny. Tulia, do you know why you're here?" He questioned, crossing his legs.

    "Because everyone at school is plotting against me." I answered, brushing my hair behind my ear. He chuckled.

    "Oh no, Tulia. You're here because you have an issue we have to discuss." I hated the way he said the word "issue".

    "So why are you here?" I questioned, scooting a bit back in my chair.

    "I'm here, because you need help."

    "I don't need help." I snapped.

    "Yes-"

    "And I especially don't need your help."

    "Tulia. I understand your," He paused a moment to find the right word, "predicament. And it's a very rare predicament. But it needs to be settled in the right way." He continued.

    "Okay. What do I need to do, to settle my predicament?" I replied, pretending to care.

    "Well, first you have to tell me the truth. Then we can go from there." I nodded my head in understandment.

    "You want the truth?"

    "Yes. The more details, the better."

  • Help with my story?? Title?

    I have an idea for a story, but NO idea what to do for a title. Here's a little description for it:

    "He's nothing special. But to me, he's extraordinary."

    Most people suggest not to go on social websites looking for a relationship, but Mirabella never listened to those suggestions. She had just graduated high school and decided she needed some new friends. Eddy was excited that his daughter was ready to start college, or so he thought. Mirabella soon found a new friend online and supposedly fell in "love". Canceling her plans for college, pushing aside the warning signals, she was set on meeting the man of her dreams. But, just like everyone had informed her about, there was one important detail Christopher had left out.

    Please help me! This description may not be very well written, but I just splat it all out :) and tried to give as much information as I could, while still trying to make sense. Thank you!

  • HELP WITH MY STORY?? Please!!?

    I have so many titles, storylines, and characters running through my head and I finally(may have) found some that clicked!

    Title: Plaid, Passion, and Pistols

    Blurb to read: You would never think that anything bad could happen here. A private school. Year round. No summer trips. We all live in our dorms. In a small little nobody town. We can't even show our knee caps! But some horrifying things happened in Throod Appardee High School. Like the 'incident' between Fiona and Mr. Scott, which reoccurs every Friday. The protesting lead by two mysterious boys. And everything completely changed when I found my sister's body in Jim's locker. But that's not all the drama that happens in my world full of plaid.

    What do you think? I think it's okay. I may change it a little(lot). But so at does it sound good? Any suggestions for improvement would be greatly appreciated! Also it's going to be mainly a murder mystery with some twists and turns in there(if you couldn't tell)

    Anything is greatly appreciated!

    My Best Friend and I are going to Prom and we both have dates. Who are also Best Friends with each other. Her date refuses to wear a suit and my date is following right after him. I don't know what to do! Should I tell him to wear a suit, or slacks and a button up shirt with a tie? I would be embarrassed to ask his mom, so that's not an option. I want him to at least wear a tie that matches my dress, but he refuses to wear anything like that! What should I do? I feel that if I'm paying $200 for a dress he should at least rent a suit.
