My favorite thing to do in my free time is write fiction/sci-fi/paranormal. Oh, I also love the game Fable. Anyways I'm a Scorpio, addicted to the Maine, in love with traveling, a really fast driver, in love with H.P. Lovecraft, and generally a weirdo. That's about it :)

  • How do you say "Life is too short" in Spanish?

    So far I've been told it's "La vida es demasiado corta" but I want to make sure it's correct. I'm not exceptional at Spanish.

  • anyone know of stores that carry dresses like this?

    http://www.amazon.com/Cold-Shoulder-Sweater-Dress-...

    the cold shoulder part is what I'm really concerned about. and the fact that it's long sleeve is great. the only bad thing is the price. I've looked around online and i've only found variations with short sleeves and big batwing sleeves. Any ideas?

  • 1999 pontiac grand am. rpms going up in park?

    I own a 1999 grand am. a few weeks ago I noticed a problem that has only gotten worse. When turning the car on it may act normally, or it may be in the 1.5-2 rpms right away, with the engine sounding very loud. The car drives ok when it acts up like this. The only problem is that it feel like it has a ton of energy. Like if I let up on the break even a little bit it'll just fly forward. After driving the car like this, if you put it in park the rpms will shoot up to the 2-3 range. The car doesn't always act this way, and will sometimes even go back to normal on its own mid-drive. If I can think of any more details I'll add them, but this covers most problems. I'm not good with cars AT ALL, so any help is appreciated. (oh, I guess normally my car was actually very quiet, and if I remember correctly usually didn't go above 1rpm when first starting, or in park)

  • poem about how people let the Nazi's rise to power?

    I'm looking for a poem I remember hearing in class once.

    It's obviously about Nazi Germany and the rise to power. It was first person, and I remember something along the lines of:

    "When the Nazi's came for the Jews I did nothing." etc. etc. etc. until he talks about having nobody left to do anything when the Nazi's came for him.

    Something along those lines at least.

    Anyone know it?

  • Opinions on the name Hawkin?

    I met an adorable little boy yesterday, named Hawkin.

    Since he's the only person I've ever known to have this name, and it was completely unexpected, I'm unsure of my thoughts on it.

    So, first impressions? thoughts/opinions?

  • the name Kyler for a boy?

    I know someone who wants to name their baby boy Kyler.

    Personally, I hate it. Not that I'm a big fan of Tyler either, but this however, seems way too feminine. It's too trendy sounding. Definitely not something I could picture on a grown man. Not that I would name a girl this either. I think I just dislike the name in general.

    thoughts/feelings on this?

    I want to know if I'm the only one with objections to it...

  • question about my debit/credit card in turkey?

    I went to inform my bank that I would be in turkey for a few days this upcoming summer, so that they would let charges go through. The teller then informed me that my card wouldn't work anywhere in Turkey at all, but the other places I'm traveling are fine. She didn't explain why however, just said something about security reasons. So it this just my banks preference, or is this something that happens frequently? I have no idea about the economic/ political/ financial status in Turkey so I'm at a loss.

  • Where would you rather go: Italy or France?

    These are options for my senior year, and just like everyone else I'd love to go to both places, but that isn't very realistic.

    France would be awesome, and I'd be going with about 40 other kids

    Italy would also be awesome, but we might not go to Rome (I'm not sure why, since I feel like as long as we're there we might as well go) and I'd be going with about 10-15 other kids.

    Which would you rather choose based off of those options?

    recommend me something? I'm at a loss.

  • I can ever look forward to Mother/Earthbound on DS?

    well... can I? In English by the way. I've tried my hand at games in other languages and fail miserably.

    I'm looking primarily for DS, information on other consoles would be cool as well though.

  • I'm sorry to have to ask, and I'm sure most of you will find this really simple...?

    but I'm just no good at Physics. It's my worst subject. SO I need help.

    the problem starts like this:

    1.) your car is sliding as you try to stop. Normal force on the car is 4300N. Coefficient of Friction (Greek letter 'mew' thing which isn't on my keyboard) is 0.012. What is the friction force?

    Well, I think I figured it out right to be 51.6N? I THINK. I took 4300x0.012. using the equation F=ma

    SOOOOOOO assuming that I did that right, we can go to the second part of the question:

    2.) What is the acceleration of the car? (Use F=ma and find the mass of the car first)

    So I basically just blank out every time I look at this problem. My teacher always stresses how mass isn't the same as weight, so it wouldn't be 4300N... and I then have no idea where to start.

    Please help?

  • The color of you characters hair?

    So, I was just wondering this today.

    This is for those of you who have created a lot of characters be it main characters or smaller, less important characters.

    Which hair color usually shows up on them?

    blonde, brunette, redhead, gray, dirty blond, strawberry, black, white, etc.?

    The color that shows up the most, is that the color you find most appealing? Is it your hair color? Do you want it to be your hair color? Do all of your male characters have the same color hair? Do all the females? Is this the color you find most attractive on the preferred gender?

    I'm extremely curious.

    As for my characters however, It usually just comes to me when I hear a name. (A name being the inspiration for a character... it's weird how my brain works sorry)

    I do love redheads though :)

  • Isaac Asimov's stories?

    I've been searching, but haven't really found anything to what I'm looking for. So I'm wondering if anyone knows of a book containing the "best" of Asimov's work?

    I guess a compilation of most, or at least the most well known stories would work.

    Any ideas/recommendations?

  • I'm doing a little project, and I need to know your feelings on these names?

    So, I like the name Ash, but I feel it needs a more formal connection.

    For the project, it has to give off a ... nature feeling. Like something that belongs outdoors.

    SO ...

    Asher, or Ashton?

    Purely which one sounds more like the description, not based on if you personally like them.

    I guess if you don't like them you should recommend something better.

    Oh, and here's a little background on the names, if that's important to your decision.

  • The Great Gatsby OR Catcher In the Rye?

    I have to read one, but which one?

    Books like these aren't usually my cup of tea, so I don't have very much experience with either of them. I just want to know if you've read both, or just one. Your reactions to the book(s). and then which you think would be better to read.
