Can anyone read my character sketch.. to see if it's okay..?
I'm starting to think that it is all over the place..
=.=;;

So read.. and opinions?

Laurie is a character of a manipulative demeanor, a mastery of deception, and a character in which undergoes a differentiating individuality change. As an astounding character of five years of age, he possessed a solid grasp of manipulative situations, in which an example lies in his trickery of maintaining a double identity. The complex deception originated on Laurie’s first and foremost day of kindergarten, as described in the context, he was no-longer the angel faced, corduroy adorning Laurie, but rather, a character of juvenile maturity in his parents’ perspective. Nonetheless, he was of an obvious increased intensity of insolence, his raucous shouting, and the consistently developing estranged relationship from his parents. Mentioned faintly in the context, the forthcoming aspects of Laurie’s personality degradation was unapparent to his parents, they in utter oblivion at the drastic change persona, but rather fixated on ‘Charles’, the ever-so-believable, static character.

I am doing a project in my history class where you must name your own country and describe how you will rule it. I chose to name the country "Robinland" named after myself and it will be a dictatorship where I am the supreme dictator and will kill anyone that opposes me. It has to be like an actual country so I want to know how dictatorship countries make money and work so I can explain it to my class how my country will work and any ideas and suggestions to add to my country will be appreciated like how my military and civiians and economy will work in "Robinland".

So my mom and I have decided that she wants to try homeschooling me. We are going to the school board office to get the paper in the next few days and fill it out, then send it to the state board of education. What were not sure not about though is the whole curriculum (spelling) thing. Like where to get it and who to get it from? Also, when my mother sends in the paper to the state people can they decline the paper. Like say no that mom cannot homeschool me. Because I have a bad attendance problem and my mom said that she thinks they may decline it because of that. But i mean i thought that maybe that would be a good reason to homeschool a child. I'm not a bad child, I make average grades such as B's and C's. But I am failing Geometry because my teacher doesnt answer any of my questions. But i have never been in trouble at school. I just have a lot of absences. Thanks for all the help.

I go to a community college right now and I fill out the FAFSA and they cover my full tuition and my books and they even give me a real good amount of money back every semester and I can do whatever with that. They also gave me $4,000 for work study. But when I transfer to a 4 year college in which I will have to live on-campus, will they pay for my housing too or at least pay a part of it?
Actually... in a four year school would they pay my entire tuition and for my books and give me work - study too? or they will give me like a portion of the money and make me make a loan to pay the rest?

I am trying to develop simple, no pressure learning activities for my just turned 4 year old. She knows all her capital letters and about half of the small ones, can count to 20 and knows all her shapes and colors. She won't color much beyond a scrible and can't write or trace. We have been doing tracing activities by holding our hand over her hand and "helping her." She does get easily frustrated. We only do school about 90 minutes a day (1st year homeschooling to prepare for the plunge into Kindergarten) and that includes story time, music, art and a 15 minute recess all of which she really seems to enjoy, so we really only have her at the desk working for about 15-20 minutes a day with paper. Her only real delays are language (she rarely talks more than 2 and 3 word phrases) and writing. She refuses to use scissors but does use the gluestick. I would love suggestions that would promote learning without going over her head or trying to make her do something she isn't ready to do.
