I have been doing research on this for a while now and am having trouble finding exactly what I am looking for.

I am thinking of going into anthropology and am going to use this experience to help make my decision. As such, I do not want to teach in a big city, and I do not want to live in a dorm with other teachers. I want to live with a host family in a poor area, preferably rural.

I cannot afford to pay for the whole trip, so I need to find something that will pay me. I am not looking to make a profit - so long as I break even on living expenses while I am there, I'll be happy.

I am not picky about what country I go to. I would prefer something in Asia, but if that is not possible I am open to going elsewhere. I would like to teach for three to six months if possible.

Thanks to anyone who can give me some advice and point me in the right direction!

I've been wondering lately...
I feel that I KNOW it is correct to refer to incorrect usage (or use?) of words as 'poor grammar' -- even to the point that I am correcting people when they say 'bad grammar'. But I have no reason. I just feel that it's more correct.
This came about from a misunderstanding the other day. I told a friend of mine that I had a 'bad memory', and he became concerned. "What is it? Do you want to talk?" I was puzzled for a second, then realized what he meant. I explained that I meant 'poor memory' -- I have trouble remembering things.
But the same thing doesn't apply when you refer to grammar does it?

I know this is kind of obscure, but I need a Christian grammar nazi in the biggest way right now! Oh, and don't think I mean a Christian nazi. That's silly. I need someone who is slightly anal about grammar and loves Jesus for this question!!
Thanks!

I am a junior in high school who wants to go into the design field. However I don't really know if I want to go into advertising, marketing, or some other media. Is visual communications a good major since it is more general? Could I get a good job from that major with just a bachleors degree? Also does anyone know any good universities with this major in the midwest?

Hello. I graduated from college 2 years ago, and I'm currently paying my student loans. I'm planning to go to Law School full time next year, but I will need NEW Student Loans.
Will I have to continue paying for my OLD student loan as I'm doing now....or is there any way that I can freeze those payments until I finish Law School? Thanks.
