  • My friend is scared for me. It scares me that I've gotten to this point. Long but please read. Help?

    Friends - 7 hours ago

    Additional Details

    I'm depressed, I've been cutting, I hate my self, and I want to die well more of kill myself. I was in one-on-one therapy for a week but I cut myself again and had to go to the ER and they sent me to the Insitute of Living for the night and was there all last Tuesday and had one-on-one therapy on Wednesday. They set me up with group therapy. Yesturday, I had to go in the morning for like don't know how to put this into words but like introduction pretty much. I then had a horrible day at school included with crying a lot a lunch because I'm pretty sure I'm going to have to quit swim team and band (I'm a section leader in band and I worked hard for my position) and my best friend Alex comes over to sit and he says, 'Am I the only one not depressed here' I looked up and told him to shut up and he comes over to my side of the table and hugs me and talks to me about it, trying to make me feel better. So then on the bus, I get a text from my ex friend saying 'I Heard wat happened and i just wanted 2 say im srry' and I asked her who told her and she said Alex and when I asked Alex why he told her he said 'I told nikki cuz im scared for u... I dont want u to get even more messed up... And im bad at talking ppl out of stuff... Nikkis good at it... Terrance says hi.' And it just really freaked me out because a bunch of people are worried about me and I'm used to that but he's my best friend and he's SCARED for me. And this morning going to encore I passed him in the hallway and he asked if I was okay and I turned and shook my head no and he came up and hugged me and I just don't know what to do he's just so close to me that it hurts. And last week we had a friend in the Insitute of Living because she was planning suicide, so I'm pretty sure he also doesn't want me to end up at that point. But, he doesn't know that I know how I would kill my self I only talked about that this morning with Justin. And I haven't told Alex how hard it is just to get through the days now, and I just find everything so pointless, and that I'm just sick of being around. He does know that I wanted to switch schools. And I'm just so scared in myself because I've gotten to the point that he's scared for me. And I just don't know what to do.
  • Should I give this guy a chance or is he just playing me?

    I met this guy through a friend. He lives in a different state and we email back and forth on facebook. It was his turn to email me but he never emailed me back. Before then, we email each other frequently like every three days. Two weeks go by without an email. He ended up 'liking' what I said on my facebook status a few weeks after I never heard from him. So I assumed he still wants to communicate with me so I emailed him again. Its been one week and then I hear from him again. It wouldn't matter but he updates his facebook through his phone and doesn't email me back when I clearly want a response from him. I enjoy getting emails from him. He recently emailed me back and said he was busy with work. He ended up asking me if I'm dating anyone. I told him that I was not dating anyone. Its been one week and he updates his facebook but doesn't email me back on facebook. I mention to him that there were pics of me and some American Idol contestants on tour on my facebook. I got a pic with one singer that I have a crush on and he's cute too. Do you think he got jealous? Why would he ask me if I'm dating anyone and stop communicating with me at the same time? Do you think he is dating anyone and wanted me to ask him if he is dating anyone?

    Family - 9 hours ago

    Additional Details

    my father died. I am his only kid Im 27. my grandmother took a life insurance policy out on my father. I was never told the details. The arrangements was no funeral parlor 2 days after he died we went to the family church and had mass then went straight to the cemetery. I am unsure of how to find out if I was lied to. or if my grandmother was the one to end up with what ever the life insurance paid off. I have heard that she may have been the primary beneficiary as long as she survived his dying. and I would then be the secondary, only being beneficiary if my grandmother was deceased when he died. can someone put this in perspective for me please?

Fall '09: Interior trends

Posted Tue, Oct 06, 2009
POST A COMMENT »

Yet again, we have said good-bye to the warm summer days and are slowly getting used to the adjustments that have begun to arrive! The great news about the unpleasant cold weather is that changes are always exciting in the world of design. The fall colors for this season are invigorating and exciting. Pantone's Color forecast for 2009 shows us that the colors for this Fall have a wide combinations of neutrals and bights to revitalize our senses on those cold and unpleasant days! The combinations of "Iron" a deep gray with "Warm Olive", a lemongrass-type hue, are sure to be a rejuvenating combination! While the "majolica blue", a deep navy blue and "Warm yellow", a buttery cream tone, bring us back to basics with classical shades.Pantene color forecast 2009

When it comes to home accessories and finishing touches, we are finding some returning trends along with a lot of new ones for this Fall:

 

Chair1) The ECO look: is still very prominent, being inspired by nature's changing colors and the natural outdoors. Everything from natural woods, branches and twigs are all an essential component of decorating for fall.

2) Rustic Glamour: antique finds, unique cabinets and mirrored furniture are all impressive accents for any room in your home. Choosing a special niche for a unique find always makes it feel and appear distinctive.

3) Lace and vintage textiles: From bedding to table cloths, lace, ruching, and delicate flowers have made a strong comeback. Antique whites, natural cottons, and linens are a sure way to keep the rooms in your home feeling refreshed.

4) Desert Inspired: From the depth of the sand dunes in Africa and the Middle East, we are inspired by Camel tones (derived from Pantone's "Warm Yellow"). Everything from pillows, decorative vases, rusted metals to deep beige rugs. These are all hot items with welcoming shades for home interiors this Fall.

5) The beloved throw: It was once that we used to buy beautiful scarves to adorn ourselves, now we have beautiful throws to decorate our spaces with. Whether it is for a bed, a living space or a sun-room. Look for a beautiful throw that will be sure to bring some color, pattern and needed attention to your room.
