Is this just an urban myth, or could you live if you were swallowed up whole? If you can, how long would you last, and would there be a chance of getting out alive, say, by excretion?

I am mailing in all my applications to colleges right now and I have no idea how many stamps I am supposed to put on every envelope. I am mailing them all inside the US, but do I need more than one stamp because it's a larger envelope?

I have this mindset... where its like, I feel like I have to be good in the eyes of everyone. As a result I'm pretty shy. I worry what other people think about me. I just moved to college, been here a week and haven't really made any friends. Some acquaintances, people I smile at or talk a little with in the elevator, but everyone else is walking to class with their new friends, going out at night. And I'm just trying to make myself feel busy.. alone. It sucks. At home it wasn't like this, I had friends and had a good time.

How can I overcome my shyness? How can I overcome my fear that people will judge me? How can I just open up and have fun? My roommates aren't really the kind of guy's I'd hang out with, but one of them offered for me to hang out with him and I just rejected him. i don't know why. I just don't want all of college to be like this. It's only a week in and I'm already having second thoughts - about going back to community college at home or something.

Here is the gist of it....I drove my car into some bushes, and I was trying to hit the breaks...I couldn't. All of a sudden I am watching the car go over a ledge. I "know" it's me in there. There is blood and a newspaper article that says I am dead. I am watching all of this. I fake faint, the people who are looking at the paper try to get me up.....I woke up. It was crazy! DOES THIS COUNT AS "DYING IN MY SLEEP= DEATH SOON IN REAL LIFE." I don't believe in that stuff, but I am just curious. ;) What do you think?

I would like to go into health care, or some type of a career in health, or something to do with writting books ,or reading or something. My sophomore year in highschool i took an immense interest in massage therapy, and my senior year i did a project on massage therapy in order to graduate, the mentor i had, for the project, turned me away from those idea's of becomming a massage therapist, because of the way she commented on my responsiblility in my project.
I am scared that i will not find a career, and will not be able to support my family when the time comes to have one. I want to have a successful life, but i do not have the money to pay for a college career, I understand that there are scholarships and grants, but i just need help in finding something i will be happy in doing. I understand that a lot of people change jobs over the years, and that most will not be happy with their first career choice, but i just need some help, maybe websites or a place that could help.
