Other - Society & Culture - 4 January 2007

In school today we went to the library to work on a project and I was there first and I was working at the computers. Two kids I know were coming in to work on the computers and I overheard them mention that I was there. One of the kids then went to the farthest computer away from where I was sitting, (where they usually sit anyway) and the other kid said, "no its not worth it, it's a bad computer" that kid then sat at the computer next to me, the other kid at the other kid then said "oh now you're just trying to look cool" I don't know what else they could have been talking about except sitting next to me. And it's wierd because they're usually really civil and respectful, at least to me. But I was right there. I don't see why I would be so horrible to sit next to. I don't talk at all, but I'm nice to people, I honestly wouldn't understand what would be the difference between sitting next to me or nothing at all. I don't know because I really try to not draw attention to myself.

I have a hard time talking to my freinds and they get really bored and leave probably because I don't know what to say and I stay quiet for a while. Then they are quiet to me. I am not a hyper person but I wish I can make a better conversation and have the right questions to ask, how to not stay slient, bring enthusiasm, be positive, entertain the person, what to talk about, etc... Usually they talk to me and then I am boring and then they think am always boring. Because I am usually hyper, I don't act hyper, because the first time I meet someone knew I cannot be hyper (like I usually am), but I am shy. Sorry for the run on sentences... (*-*) ahhhhh! please help me... :)

What is the proper professional-massage etiquete (first-timer here)? Do you have to take all your clothes off? Do they try & chat with you like your dental hygenist or hairstylist? If so, can you tell them to be quiet? Do you tip, if so how much? Are men better or are women better?

Why am I one of the few people that realizes that life is slavery if you make below a certain amount? Not to mention, being bombarded by consumerism, you feel that you have to buy the newest fashions, care what movie stars think, and stay "in style." Everything is made so cheap nowadays, and people are nothing more than drones. Houses and cars are slapped together, worth a fraction of what they sell for, and yet people continue to buy way more than they can afford. The average person is in so much debt today, and yet they continue to consume garbage at a ridiculous pace. I am wondering how long capitalism can continue at this pace before it is crushed under its own weight, and the poor pick up rifles and just take what they need to survive. People need to wake up.

I am an American. I love my country and realize this question may raise some eyebrows, but I was wondering....
When the tsunami hit, Americans all over broke out their wallets to give aid, when Katrina hit, we did it again, when 9/11 happened, we all watched in awestruck horror until the buildings collapsed and then continued watching, tears and pain, and gave time and money to the cause. We raised our voices as one for justice at the government.
Now, almost four years later from 9/11, almost two years for Katrina and how many still give? How many give no matter if there is a catastrophe or not? Or are we only awakened from our day to day lives when something tragic happens and catches our attention?

So, I pose the question. Are we too self centered? Thinking only of what we want and need from one day to the next, without a second thought for our fellow men, women and children around us. Never thinking about anyone else's needs other than our own.
Unless there is tragedy.

I'm set to graduate next year and I'm looking for options - I'd like benefits, and I've heard of a few agencies that offer them.. I know that agency pays better, but - the shifts aren't guarenteed and, unless I'm contracted, there is little job security and stability - It'll be like being hired at a new place every 3 nights!! but the money is a major draw - what advantages/disadvantages are there to Staff nursing versus agency nursing.. I'm from New Jersey, BTW
