There is a very special teacher of mine, who I have been pretty close with for about 3 years. Not in a sexual way or anything, but she has helped me so much, talked to me when I needed it, and I know she cares. Even if it's only her job to do so. Last year I wrote her a card expressing how much she helped me, and how much I appreciated it, and she teared up (as did I, I was going through a very tough time, and she was one of the only people to help me get through it). Christmas is coming up, and I wrote her another card. I basically said that I appreciate everything she has done (and, I'm gradding this year) and that she helped me when I needed it the most, I could never thank her enough and that she's a very important person to me, and might always be!

I said some other things to, but I just want to know if that's weird? I mean, should I just say "Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays" and leave out the whole "thank you so much" stuff?? Do you think that's "unprofessional"?

I'm a University student and it's my first year. I decided to move out and go to a good University awa from home. All it is trouble. Ever since I came here, I've put so much effort and time into everything I do. I'm in an engineering program, and yes that's what I want to do. But I'm stupid. I'm a retard honestly. Sicen Dec 1 till the 17 everyday I'm in the classroom from 10am till 2am day in and day out studying for exams. My exams are over but I feel like I'm going to fail some and I may need to repeat. I'm an idiot and I'm a disgrace. If I repeat the whole year I disgrace myself. My parents loose respec of me, my bro and sis well never look upto me anymore. They all think how wonderful I'm on my own and working really hard. And honestly, it hurts. I've worked so hard sacrificed food,money, friends EVERYTHING just for engineering. Not only that, I never slept in my residence, insead I sleep in liraries and classrooms because I'm too busy studying. And now, all that effort, is waste

I go to the local community college, and have procrastinated until nearly the last minute, but I was wondering what is usually the minimum amount of students that have to be enrolled in a class for them not to cancel it? The maximum amount of students in a class is 35.

I want to be a translator. I go to college searches, put in linguistics, but what I want is not coming up.

I want to learn Spanish, Russian, Arabic, Japanese, French, and Italian.Aleast three of those, preferably the first three.

What am I looking for, what college could help me? Would I have to go to different colleges?

If you have any referneces on colleges you think will help me, that would be great. On the East Coast of the US is my preference, but I would be willing to go out west if I had to find the perfect college.

My application is under review by Texas A&M, and I know I will be accepted because of automatic admissions. I guess I'm just impatient because this will symbolize the begining of the end of high school.
