Arts & Humanities - 12 July 2007

I have recently started writing a story. It's very short- but I write for at least ten minutes every(usually to only crank out a paragraph!) and I have a question. When two people are talking, do you press "tab" on every line or only put a few spaces? I look at books for references and it looks like they only put a few spaces. I've not been pressing 'tab' or even putting spaces when my characters are talking..I just sort of leave it. Like I said, I'm young and have just started writing- so it'll take me a while to learn the rope.

Thanks,
Isa

You Were the One


You were the one that was always by my side
You were the one that was there after every fight
You were the one that helped me decide
You were the one that made everything all right

You were the one that called me baby
You were the one that that will always know me
You were the one who said maybe
You were the one who tried to show me

You were the one who said all those things
You were the one who would count the hours
You were the one who thought you were king
You were the one who would stop and smell the flowers

Your still the one Who does that stuff
Your still the one who is as gentle as a dove
Your still the one who thinks that he's tough
Your still the one who with all my heart I love

I feel so grim and blank and grey-
I cannot tell my heart to stay.
I want to try but feel so cold-
My younger thoughts are feeling old.

I've cried a hundred-thousand tears
And mourned for all our future years.
I do not want to get up again-
I'm tired of wondering where you've been.

My trust is gone and I'm so done.
You always think your're having fun.
You open up a putrid sore-
And every time I bleed some more.

My plans and dreams are down the drain.
I cannot take another pain.
I'm counting down- I'm going slow.
I have nowhere I want to go.

I know there's hope somewhere in time.
Maybe I'll find it as I rhyme.
Until I do I'll play the game
And guess that you will do the same.

why are you competing with everyone, and in the process..generating a dog eat dog world?
youre so serious, you want to compete with your friends on who can have the more exotic holiday destination..or who can own the more prestigious car..or who can be more knowledgeable about art!

the americans among you seem to have been brainwashed with the philosophy that "he who dies with the most possessions wins"!

haven't you watched citizen kane?...!!

I'm a young novelist, age 14, I'm working on 28 novels of mine. I really hope that one of my novels will be made into a movie, or I will be interviewed on tv for one at least. I;'m wondering what might have to be done, or what the chances are of having these things happen to me.

My best friend is an amazing dancer. The thing is at 5'10 she ways 335lbs and her weight has really affected her confidence, she never comes out with us anymore she just hides at home all the time. When she hits the dance floor she blows everyone away..she is soo talented. She told me she really wants to start taking professional dance classes not only to impove her talent but to lose weight. I told her it was a wonderful idea but she feels she's too fat to do this. Please..any opinions will help. Will a Profesional dance class accept her as she is?

It's intriguing to see what colors, smells, tastes and feelings are associated with emotions.

From some things I have read it leaned definitely in that direction. Either that or was just a greedy, megolomaniac.

I’m very excited to return to Broadway this fall in the new Mel Brooks musical Young Frankenstein.

The first Broadway show I ever saw was the original production of “Chicago" with Gwen Verdon and Chita Rivera (1975).

The first musical that I had a role in that had a major impact on me was "Petra" in "A Little Night Music" my freshman year at Northwestern. I had never really acted before, and a girl in the cast (a sophomore) suggested that I "make friends" with my character. It has worked for me ever since!

I am a photographer and want to start doing sports photography but need to know if I go to a local school sporting event. Can I legally photograph the teams playing, and solicit my buisness cards with an event password to a secure site (password protected), and having them online without a contract beacause and if its public ground, can I be punished by the law?

Thanks in advance.
