Arts & Humanities - 26 July 2007

I have a whole month off and i have absolutely nothing to do as I saved my whole salary.
I love fiction and get bored with a book that can't keep me hooked from page 1.
I hate this horor and thriller stuff. And im not a fan of reading the harry potter books.

Hi i recently posted a question about what to do if my family doesn't want to help me start with my dreams of becoming an actor. I am a sophmore in highschool and its great it all but i really want to start acting, going to auditon, start acting classes, and so i was thinking of homeschool. I'm hesitant to approach my parents because i know the answer will be NO! and they will just laugh like they did when i said i wanted to act.

My parents are typical asian parents and only think that being a doctor is good. They dont understand anything i want, and i am tired of sitting in my room doing nothing because of them. I feel like i have no support system and will never learn anything or make it into the entertainment business. They won't even let me take acting classes or go to interviews. I just don't know what to do anymore, i feel like i should give it up but i'm not gunna. Someone please give me advice on how to approach them and get this into their heads please. thnx

I do not recall seeing much repeated video of events during the day, and days following President Kennedy's assasination as well as Jack Ruby killing Lee Harvey Oswald. I recall more straight coverage. Am I correct that there was little or no repeated showings of events, such as Ruby killing Oswald, unlike the repeated showing of tragic events over and over now a days....such as Sept. 11th.

Just seems like people are finishing Harry Potter in a ridiculous amount of time and I'm dragging on some non fictions. I wonder if there is any explanation for this phenomenon. Okay let's just pretend to we have one person reading two books, same size, one non fiction, the other fiction. I think the person will finish the fiction much faster... why?

OK. So, Voldemort cast the Avada Kedavra spell at Harry, so he HAD to die. That was the only way that part of Voldemort's soul in him could go away! So, why did he have the chance to come back to life? I mean, if he just fainted or whatever and had a "dream," couldn't part of Voldemort's soul still be attached to him?

I thought that Egyptians at this time would have sat atop of Gold and been catered on, but it sounds like they lived a somewhat carefree lifestyle, almost like the Greeks. Did they live a less-lush life than what is implied?

I really want to start acting/modeling (even though I'm short) but I don't want to run into any scam talent agencies. I just came from a scout agency, but I guess I didn't have the personality that they were looking for...So what should you do if you REALLY want to get into the industry?

I for one would defintely would want immortality. Reason: I want to learn everything there is about the world and the Universe. I would travel to distant stars finding answers to everything in life. If it is possible can come someone tell me how? This is a serious question. Wouldn't you want immortality?
