Recently I've been considering becoming a writer. Well, at least as a personal hobby. I am not at the point of deciding whether or not I want to pursue it as career.. But, I have become interested as of lately in writing stories, poems, reviews, anything really. Now, I have never been much of a writer - mainly because I have never been really motivated in school or anything until now - but I wrote an essay for one of my courses and my professor found it so good that he wants to submit it to the Dean of the English department. So, this sparked an interest in me for something I have never considered before. And now I find myself dying to express my thoughts into words. With that being said, what can I do to improve my writing besides simply practicing it? Perfect practice makes perfect, as I see it. What are the fundamental elements I can study? I mainly want to concentrate on advanced style and structure of poetry and essays. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

I graduated high school in 2006 and went to DeVry University in Georgia. I planned on getting a degree from there, but it turned out to be a horrible school and a complete waste of time and money.

Everything my parents saved up for me to go to college was used up trying to pay for DeVry. Now, I applied to a four year school and got accepted, along with all of my redits from DeVry. I can go there in Fall 2007 if I continue with the registration.

However, my dad is complaining about money and wanting me to go to community college since it's wiser financially. I have a friend in Daytona Beach who offered me to come room with him in an apartment and go to Daytona Beach Community College. If I do that, I've got to arrange to have my college transcripts sent and apply.

I really want the social life of a university. Community college can't give me that. But I'll be in debt until I'm 70 if I do 4 years at a university. So what's the better option?

Why are so many people obsessed with watching television? To many people it is means escape from their daily lives, but they do not realize is that television can have many different effects on them. People think that by watching television they can solve their problem in thirty minutes or a one-hour, but what do not realize is that cannot solve their problem in thirty minutes or a one-hour time slot. In addition, a person will not have the experience necessary to succeed in the business world because they did spend a lot time with people. In addition, a person can come more involve with watching television than they are with their academic studies. Watching too much television is one of the major problems in the world today, which has effects on person social, mental, and physical abilities.

The bottom left-hand corner of the parallelogram has a measure of 120 degrees. So, using A=base*height, I got that the area of the parallelogram is 100 square roots of 3 square units. Was this correct? The left side of the parallelogram is 10 units long and the base is 20 units long. Also, if the botoom left-hand corner were ninety degrees, then the paralleogram would be a rectangle and area would be 200 square units, correct? Your help is greatly appreciated.

Using these words...please make 5, 6, and 7+ words.
Please just use these letters, however many times it appears up here. Please do not use...example: "a" two times if there is only a in here...just an example. Most best will get 10 points.

Thanks.
If you can, organize them...but NOT necessary!

Which is the accepted usage?

I've heard both. Someone I know says "bad rep" as in "bad reputation," but I'm not sure how the expression is really used. If it is "a bad rap," what does the word "rap" mean in this usage?
