One of my friends just had her doctor recommend that she gets a flu shot. However, I've heard that flu shots aren't all that they're cracked up to be, and they even include toxic stuff! Are they safe? Or are they really bad?

Sometimes it takes me so long to catch my breathe. I can't even breathe under the covers. When I walk up the stairs or run I seem to have a really hard time getting my breath back.

Ok, for my science project, I got everything done, but on the research section, I'm not sure what to write. My project is about certain genres of songs will change the heartbeat and blood pressure, and I would like to learn more about this. All I have is that it does change your heartbeat and blood pressure and that classical music soothes your heart. Any help please?
[Sorry if the wording is all..messed up. I'm not so well when it comes to describing things]

These past days it has been cold here in California.

I do have a job dealing with papers and documents, filing and all that. But I usually never have contact in the back of the hand. usually if i get cut, it's in the fingers and papercuts in the nail entrances .

The back of my hand is really dry and looks red like if i got burned. But i didn't get burned. so could it have been the cold weather?
