Are there any words in the English language, except gypsy, that have no vowels?

When I tell people I am an English major, I get the same question, "what are you going to do with that?" I want to write, maybe write a novel or something, but I know I'll need something else to be my way of making money continually. So what can I do with an English degree???

Instead of using "it" and "that" euphemisms why don't we call "that" what "it" is, coital gymnastics.?

It's a word joke even a bluenose would snicker at.

School put me in the alternate program, since I've always had bad attendance. It was ok at first, but now I can't stand sitting alone in a cubical with a book and paper all day. It's so isolating, and boring. I've talked alot at lengths to the teachers, and they won't do anything.

I have a learning disablity, and untreated ADD and the school does nothing to help with that. They know I have it. I've been trying to get them to put me on half days, but my dad won't agree to it. I've already missed all the days i'm allowed to miss (on contract with the school) and I haven't gone to school in 5 days. So I'm 5 days over the limit.

I want to drop schoo so badly. If I already don't get kicked out when I go back tomorrow. I have enough credits to get a secondary school certificate, and I know eventually I will go back and finish, or get my GED. I just got promoted to manager at work, steady job and I'm almost 18.

How do I convince my dad that that this is a good idea?

A boat leaves a dock at 2:00pm and travels due south at a speed of 20 km/h Another boat has been heading due east at 15 km/h and reaches the same dock at 3:00pm. At what time were the 2 boats closest together?




I have no idea how to start this problem. Any help would be great. Thanks.

Hi,

I'm a college student and I'm getting ready to go out on my first field observation for my secondary education certification. Thinking about all the things that I'm going to learn, I wanted to pose a question to all of the teachers out there. Is there something that you know now that if you had been told or discovered earlier, that would have made the transition from student to teacher easier? Basically I'm looking for tips and advice from teachers.
