Having more things added to the 'to do list' that still aren't done...

or the relative length of a day for example as we simply live more units of time......(when we are very little a day takes up a larger % of our total life...as we age, an individual day is a smaller % of our life)

I've been dancing my whole life so I have that down, but I can't do back handsprings or anything like that. I'm going to be a freshman and the cheer and dance team are combined and I think cheer would be fun, do you think I'd have to have experience in cheer to make the team. Any advice on what I should do now or with the tryouts?

For example, I have Green relatives who were Greenfarbs in Poland. Not knowing this, assuming statements in family are corrected, I would probably have assumed they are English. Sometimes records may not be sufficient to soundly deduce a different origin from the common one.

I know Syd Barrett wrote a book called "The History of Art," but does anybody know if it was ever published and where I can purchase it?

I'm looking for a book that deals with political development in early America. Specifically from the formation of the U.S. Consititution through Jeffersonian politics and the formation of the two-party system.
What book(s) would be the most appropriate? I'm not looking for a "history of the U.S." type book as I already have plenty of those. I'm looking for abook SPECIFICALLY about Early U.S. Politics. Please help.

The Sun Shall Rise Again by Saint John

Pressed against your lips I remember
For tomorrow always seemed outstretched
"Die in arms tranquil" you once rested in me--
You shimmered alongside angels with such ease...

For I believed in something more than myself,
Forever never seemed long enough.
As you lied with your heart intwined with mine,
Questions answered why one would live...
For on days like these, it's easy to believe
That with you, I knew--
The sun shall rise again...

The streets once paved with ounces of gold
Each step we took, each promise told
Leading us closer to a destined light
Whispers bonded with all of our might--
We were one...

'Till a harsh wind blew of tears undue
I'd fight the wave of a life unpaved
To know the truth that pushes me away from you
Into a life of sin--
Please my darling, hear me when....I say
The sun shall rise again...

The truth:
well everyone seems to define god as a all powerfull alll knowing entity that is perfect. So yea and even if he was not perfect then that still means he would be all knowing and all powerful. My point is not what is god but what are his qualities that make would make it contridict itself.

I am having an argument with a friend about this, and while I know that it is traditional in the Christian religion for God to be both omnipotent and omnibenevolent (hence the problem of evil), I need trustworthy resources to show my friend that he is incorrect in stating that Christians do not traditionally believe this doctrine.

I have been thinking about the story for a long time. It is about the main character (a girl) who undergoes self acceptance and discovery when she falls in love for the first time. She dates the guy then goes to two others before coming back to the main one. I hadn't really given thought to if she should be a virgin BEFORE she meets him. It is important b/c she is innocent/alone beforehand, but I don't want her to be too pure.

I like "old" kind of books (like, not books based in the 90's or 2000's) and I also like mystery genre so I'll actually keep reading it. Oh and for length, about 200 pages or so. Thanks!

I saw a little girl and her brother with their grandma at an ice cream place soooo happy licking their ice cream cones. I wish I could be like that.

I'm only 19, so I know that I'm still very young as well, but I really miss being just a little kid right now. With no worries or problems.
