hi =) well today I went shopping in some market & found out that too many Chinese ppl sell stuff there ( I'm Egyptian, live in Egypt & always get extremely exceited around any tourist -lol- & find an urge to ask him/ her what she thinks of Egypt & why she came here & if she'd like to do it again,..)
So you can guess what happened to me when I found all these Chinesies out there, I had to talk to at least one!! LOL
so I walked up to one salesgirl (this is the first time ever I get the courage to talk to a foreigner for no obvious reason lol)
... & the conversation went:
"hey, are these made in China?" ( about the stuff she's selling)
"yes" -in arabic!!
"oooo, and you're Chinese? "
*a smile & nodd*
"& you live here?"
"I love it!"
"wow! you live here aaand you love it! ..well enjoy your stay and I'm glad to meet you, thanks"
lol now I know this is real poor, can anyone help me fix this?!
how do I start a conv. with someone like her?
=) ty
p.s: I'm serious 'bout this lol

This sounds kinda strange, but one day a pregnant woman went to the Oracle and asked what gender her baby would be. The Oracle answered, "Girl no boy." Do you think this means the baby would be a girl or a boy?
(Don't write an answer about how you can't tell without proper punctuation and grammar, I know that. This is just for fun to see who thinks what gender the baby would be)

I have to answer 4 questions in this essay, which are:
1.) How would you characterize the style of parenting under which you were raised?

2.)What specific behavioral effects of your upbringing can you identify in yourself?

3.)How about your parents' upbringing? How would they, or you, characterize the style of parenting used by their parents.

4.)Now think carefully about who you might have been had you been raised by other parents. Prepare 3 brief descriptions of how you might have developed, one for each of the remaining styles of parenting.


OKAY... I know most of them.. well actually all, are answers you guys would ahve no idea about because you do not know me or my parents.. but How in the hell am I supposed to write a 1000 word essay on those simple questions. I don't even know how to elaborate on some of them without getting completely off topic!!! HEEELPPP!

I'm on a road to poverty, Hot on the heels of success,
My heart is feeling empty, My mind so full of stress,
So goes the life of a poet, A construction worker laid off,
Every door leading to a regular job, leaves me in the cold with a cough.
All my acquaintances say I should build for myself,
Relying on me before seeking another,
Caught between a rock and a hard place,
How Lonely it is,Oh Brother!
In life we all need someone,
No regrets, No games, No Lies,
Getting discouraged plants tears, In the most un-crying eyes!
Family can be there for you, in times you feel you'll fail,
Or maybe you feel you have nobody, and that depression will prevail?
Reckless abandon pacifies, But true Love takes it's time,
Lost is He who looks in the wrong places, haste his only crime!
Only when I feel that way again, will I feel I need that chance,
Very anxious to stand before, My love..our first dance.
Eating my words is fattening, but low in cholesterol,
I'm walking while learnin 2crawl

Throughout my teenage years I had recurring dreams of being molested as a child. I had a few dreams where I was being molested by my grandfather and I would always wake up feeling feeling wierd and awful. I also had a dream where I was having sex with my father (I can't even tell you how awful I felt when I woke up from that dream). And there is one other dream I can specifically remember where I was being chased by some "faceless" unknown molester.

The strange thing is that I don't have any conscious memory of anything like that happening to me, and I really don't think that any relatives did anything like that to me. But I can say that growing up I always felt "very damaged" in some way, and even today I feel very uncomfortable around children, like a fear deep down that people are going to think I'm trying to harm their child.

I can also say that all my life growing up I've always felt like a very angry person.

Any insight is appreciated.

I had this dream that one of my guy friends at work wanted to have sex with me?!? He's one of my good friends and I don't even think of him that way. He's not really attractive to me. I really like him as a friend because he's about the only guy at work who hasn't hit on me. But in my dream I said yes! He's also married and I'm engaged. But in the dream he kept saying he wasn't really married. But before we "did it" I woke up. I'm confused. Because I don't feel about him in that manner at all. What does this mean??

Now I know there are always exceptions but listen. We always need to buy something to make us happy. Weather its that huge SUV that gets 10 miles per gallon or that huge house that costs a fortune in money and resources to heat and cool. We always have to go to the mall and buy new clothes because we "need" them and our old clothes don't make us happy anymore. I am not like this and I'm tired of being around people who are. When will this end? Probably never since our economy is based on the suffering of others. Just think about it. Will it ever stop?

As a teen I had clarivoient abilities. I woud have dreams of events weeks prior to them happening...Kind of like deja vu. After moving out of my parents house and in with my now husband, the abilities just dissipated. Every now and then I have the dreams but they are far and few between. Is there a why I can regain them or harnis them in some way or is there a way I can lear how to use them? I really would like it back and maybe stronger than before.
