Social Science - 3 June 2007

About 6 years ago I got an A grade for my A-level maths. However in one of the modules I took in a program (on my casio calculator) to use in an exam, and this was strictly forbiden.

When I created the program I was so chuffed at that achievement that I just wanted to test it out!

One thing I know for sure is that had I not taken the program in I am 100% sure I would have got an A grade anyway. BUT I still feel guitly!

Since then I have got a Maths BSc butI still feel guitly because of this A-level thing, I feel as though my BSc is not genuine since I only got onto it cos of my tainted A-level.

So the question begs Why do I still feel guilty about it?!!! And please this is not trivial- it really is eating up at me to the point where Im depressed.

I am thinking about calling the A-level board so that I can renounce my grade, as I see this as being the only way of removing the guilt that I have

And I have stopped applying for Jobs as I feel my qualifacations are false.

An anthroplogical question; Is it customary for Dutch men to have coitus or oral sex with they're brothers or sisters Daughters? I know that some patralineal tribes in Africa do especially those in eastern africa and I just wondered if this was an accepted norm in the Netherlands or are they just very family oriented? I ask for two reasons one because Im an anthropology major and 2nd because I have a pen pal there who sees his neice often?????If any one knows let me know? unless he is just a caring guy?

Every night there is a man in my dreams who has extraordinary power. He realizes I am dreaming and has even confronted that. He's evil, I feel it when he hurts me. This has been going on for atleast three years.

In my dream Im nailed to a wall in my house by my bf and all of my xbfs are in a line with knives and they all take a turn at stabing me... my x from grade skl was even there. I kinda pass out or somthing and when I come to Im underwater in a stream or somthing and there are feary like things all around me and I see one that is a baby so I go to it and hold it for a while until it turns into some kind of evil fish thing and tries to kill me. My bf saves me and he's in army cloths and he pulls me out of the water and carries me into a forest where I grow wings and fly away. Then Im in the clouds and Im just sitting on one crying b/c Im alone and he shows up again and this time he looks like an angel or somthing b/c hes wearing a toga and he has wings and takes my hand and I wake up.

Its really wierd and makes noooo sense what-so-ever! Its also freaking me out b/c normaly my dreams mean somthing so if someone could tell me what it means that would be gr8 thx!

So, if I play angry and violent hip-hop music in my house all day long, will it affect me (and/or my family) in any way?

I tend to dream every single night, that is to say I remember them. However my dreams are always of a violent nature. I am always attacking someone, always strangers. I can feel the anger pulsating through me so intensely during my dreams. For example I had a dream similar to the film 28 Days Later and it was actually scary how violently I was killing 'the infected'. If I’m not hacking someone to death I’m usually having a fierce argument threatening and cursing them.

I’m not a violent person, I’ve never been involved in a fight and I always avoid confrontations, I always bottle up my emotions. Why do I dream like this then?

Serious answers please.

I had this weird dream, but it all seemed to make sense. I'm not a very religoius person, so I was surprised to have something like this happen.
I was dead, and I was at what seemed to be the gates of Heaven. There where many people in a line, waiting to be "judged." They way that God judged where you would end up was this: He would wet a peice of paper with water and than He would hold it over a torch. what ever amount of the water than turned to blood represented how much you have sinned in your life.
It was my turn. A lot of the water turned to blood. I was worried. Then He said that I would go and have ten more days of Life to make it right.
This dream is really bothering me. Can someone help?

If it possible. I have noticed that I am not happy unless intake caffeine in some way or another. Now its gotten to the point where I need 2 cups of coffee to feel happy. Im worried it will get worse, but when I go a week without it, I get migraines. Should I just live with this, or should I try to become un-addicted? If so, how?

why were slavic/baltic people,non christian,africans,native americans etc etc etc called uncivilised? or barbaric people?

Even people in rural france are still called uncivilised by the parisians? and across the world.

Why is rural/pastoral life considered uncivil?

lately i make a lot of nightmare. I see a girl (that i don't know and have never seen) falling from a window of my flat with a baby in her arms. Well, once a woman tried to kill me by throwing me away from a window but it wasn't in the same flat...
I also have dreams such as a walk with my lately dead grandfather and a dead cat i had. and i dream about calling a boy who was in class with me when i was a child and most people laughed at hom because he was fat (not me because i was already a "strange thing" since i was a twin).
What do these three dreams that happen really often mean???

I live at my grandfather's house during the summer (I'm in college). I normally don't see my mom (I was taken by CYS because she was deemed mentally unfit due to bipolar disorder), but I saw her outside. I asked her to come inside, but she got angry. She said I am taking advantage of my pap (I cook, clean, and care for him, especially since he has to have cataract surgery soon), and she feels it's immoral/unfair that my fiance from New Jersey stays sometimes (he sleeps in the guest room). She says my grandfather never allow this for anyone else. My pap has never seemed to have a problem with me. Anyway, my mom got really angry, and she told me that when I was younger she took my to a psychologist, and the psychologist said I had a personality disorder where I use people and that is what I am doing with my pap. Does a disorder like this exist or is my mother just angry and venting? I don't think I'm using my pap, and I don't think there's anything wrong with me. What's up???
