How does my poem sound? opinions needed? Go away, Oh mother dear, Look not upon my face, For life has touched me in a way That's brought on you disgrace. I struggle not to be this way, Try harder than you know. But truly when a girl walks by My heart does flutter so. The words that you've not spoken, The words you've yet to say Will kill the parts so deep within That know that I am gay.

I own a 95 Buick Lesabre and it makes a rattling sound all the time (Mechanics opinions preferred)? I have had the tensioner pulley assembly and tensioner replaced but it still makes a rattling sound. I have heard the same sound on 2 other GM vehicles that are similar to my Lesabre. Any ideas as to what the cause is?

How does it sound? Opinions please? It's the introduction for my essay on my history as a learner. My teacher wants it concise but does it sound too boring? Tips are appreciated. Thanks. I began my journey ashore. I was on the outside seeing waves of ideas, wonders, experiences, and discoveries surge past me. I did not stay on the exterior for long; however, soon I submerged into these waves. I became soaked with knowledge, inspiration, fear, anticipation, and much more. From this, I have learned to follow my own tide.

I'm thinking of investing in farmland in South Dakota. I wonder if this is a sound investment. Opinions? The land is not great in South Dakota and prices per acre are high and going up. I know I should have done this a while back. But, to me, it seems more stable and sound to own land more than other investments right now. Crops here are corn and soybeans. Those who are familiar with ag situations, please answer. Thanks so much!

How does this name sound? Opinions please!? Isabelle Aoife Bowen Aoife is pronounced Ee-fuh, sort of like "Eva." The name is for a Welsh-Irish character of mine.

This is going to sound terrible, but I just want opinions please? My boyfriend of 5 years is from a rough background, some people would say they are 'chavs', he is also only very basic intelligence. I on the other hand am from quite a posh background, have been to university etc. I am gently and sensitive, he is tough and thick skinned. You could say we are a very unlikely couple. Ive heard people say that such relationships dont work in the longer term, but we are still together after five years, what are you guys thoughts on relationships like this?

Is it really that big of a deal? should i just do it to make him happy? would you do it? has anyone done it? what he wants to do is for him to just be laying on the couch and for me to just come casually sit on him.

Should the music (sound) ordinance be dropped? Need OPINIONS from all ages for a research paper!? I want to know if you think the Sound or Music Ordinance from Vehicles should be dropped or revised. Currently, most ordinances are 20 pascals which is equivalent to 120 decibels. I am doing a Research/persuasive essay on to topic and want opinions for all mature ages about it. Please submit your feedback. It is greatly appreciated.

How does this sound as an endorsement of skepticism as an approach to life that says all our opinions should? be open to revision but a rejection of skepticism as a view that says we can't know anything, that everything is in doubt? "Prejudices are things that one unavoidably has. But one should not cling to them as a man clinging to a cliff. There is no abyss below."

Where does this quote come from? #49 A Sound person has fewer opinions and attends more...? ...closely the opinions of others. (More of the quote) He admires what he approves and can admire what he does not approve of as well. He can discover the untruth within the truth and the truth within the untruth.

how does this poem sound? (opinions please)? oki wrote this poem... when i was obsessing over something. I want to further understand my feelings so could anyone tell me what they think of my poem symmetrization and opinions wanted: OBSESSION I don' want to hear Because if I hear I will listen And if i listen I will wonder And if I wonder I will think And if I think I will worry And if i worry.....I'll never stop.

This is going to sound ridiculous, but i need your opinions? First, I do not want to be pregnant at this time, I am in my 20s, but just cant right now, here it goes: *I have no real symptoms of pregnancy (off and on breast pain, i feel like my lower abdomen is sticking out,) *I have had FIVE periods and no sexual activity in the past 5 months *I took an Equate brand HPT at 11-12 weeks (negative) *I chart my cervical mucus to know when I'm most fertile, and the mucus correlates with my periods *I would be 20 weeks right now, and I am a size 0 or 2 I know it seems unlikely I am pregnant, but for some reason I am TERRIFIED that I am. I can't go to a doctor (financial) and I am just at a point in my life where I could never handle this. Also, the sexual expirience this would be from was unwanted, but I was drunk so I guess its my own fault, but ejaculation took place outside of me and the way I remember it there was no penetration AT ALL, but I just really dont remember. Do you guys think its likely that I am pregnant? What can I do?

How does this sound? Opinions? Offer some thoughts, and bear with me, please read this as much it interests you, if you get bored and must force yourself to read it after the first few paragraphs please don't and tell me so I can add some spice to it to draw you in more. She was a girl not but twelve years of age. She was placid but warm; her crest shone through the clouds. She held brilliance and green upon her eyes, yet slid from light itself. Hair a fierce red that retreated in the evenings to a deep brown, and a nose that turned neither up nor down. Etched rough across the soft skin of her cheek, sewn to her physicality at birth, was the family insignia. The meaning was clear to few including herself. Her birthplace, the town of Paradise, was a town she would live in, a town she would rot in, a town she would die in. But Paradise was hopeful, a recluse to some and to others the want of it to be so. The road wound through stalks of green, and rows of sage colored trees. The light shimmered off the wheat and as the wind blew turned it into a sea stained with golden shadows. She knew not where her house was, only that she was there. That she would always be there, against the stark and stale air of the attic where she spent her days pouring over a stupor of hot thought mingled with sweat and tears. Her pencil brushed over the paper, scribbling nonsense lines, nothing but curves of the wrist. She did it when no thoughts came to her, when she was stuck in turn. “Peaceful breaths of death grew quit, drawn behind the shadows As the suns understanding stood quietly behind clouds of red stained blood.” She set her arm down and read over her work. It was calm with tone of death, just the way she always wrote. Each word resting upon no less than the entirety. It was in the attic she could escape normal life. Where she could hide from the world, but more importantly where she could escape the burden of war. Dust swam lazily in streams of light that came through small cracks. Once more she was left to scribble, striped light before the paper. Minutes turned to hours, and hours gave to darkness as the noon came and the clouds grew thick over Paradise. Left in the dark she feel to sleep. The pencil lay dead beside the paper, her auburn hair strewn over it’s words. She had written no more, but knew there was more to come. that's the first little page or so, Thoughts, ideas, opinions, reccomendations, anything would be helpful, thanks. and please don't try to steal/plageurise any of this. Just saying it may not be good, but in the hands of someone who is talented you could easily take this idea and warp it to your own, please don't.

how does this sound , opinions pls , thank u xx? ok the plot so far . the main character has been in a plane crash , she has found some survivors , one being a mother but her baby has died . so this is the ending to my chapter 2 , please be honest. We decided to rest up, we were exhausted. We found a canopy of trees and decided this would be the best place. Within five minutes or so Laura, Lisa and Mark had closed their eyes.As I lay my head down on the soft grass, the panicked screams and cries were still ringing in my ears, I would not be sleeping tonight.Suddenly a new sound was taking hold of my ears; a lullaby, Hush Little Baby.Mary was rocking backwards and forwards as if trying to soothe Harry to sleep, he was already sleeping and would never wake.I felt something wet trickle down the front of my face.The angelic voice kept singing and i could feel my eyes getting heavy, i forced them to open.I did not want to see the images of today that lay behind them.My eyes felt almost lead like, as the singing continued to soothe the pain my ears felt.They closed again and this time i could not force them open.

How does my singing voice sound? (opinions of long-time singers and anybody else would be much appreciated!)? Here's me singing "Believe in Me" by Demi Lovato" : Here's the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Z1VyCv5LmQ I know it's not that great, but I'd like your feedback on it, like what I'd need to work on and stuff...like my pitch or something...but I haven't taken any voice lessons at all, so that's one of the main reasons why I suck...And if you noticed, I changed the pitch down like 2 keys so it's fit for my range--alto... But please tell me what you think! Like if I have potential or not, or if I should just stop singing, since I'm not getting enough comments on YouTube since I don't get a lot of viewers so it would help greatly! I also need the opinions of people who have been singing for a while...!

Anyone use profile amps...How do they sound?Opinions? Im going to switch from a hifonics brutus 1606 to a profile ap2000 so i can run the speakers at 4 ohm bridged.....will this sound better than how they do now? they are wired @ 1ohm now. With the profile it is 960x1 RMS @ 4 ohm bridged, so my 10" L7's will get 480 each. SOund like a good idea? i have 2 10" 4ohm dvc, they are wired to 1 ohm, and get plenty of power, but they just dont sound good. Ive been told that a 1 ohm signal is "dirty" and Im curious to know if they will sound better at 4 ohm. dont get me wrong they slam, but it just doesnt sound as clean as it should

What are your politically incorrect (but still non-racist) opinions on how different Asian languages sound? You can say what you don't like here without being called a racist.

I'm emailing hubby, how does this sound? Need opinions please!! :)? It's regarding his level of affection. He wrote me an email and in it he said he's horny and is "hoping to take care of that tonight" with his "super sexy hot lady." Normally I'm 100% wanting it, more often than he does even. But I thought I'd take the opportunity to bring up the affection thing.... tell me how you think this sounds. Nice or bitchy? Gentle or naggy? What else could I say? Thanks for your opinions. :) "If you wanna get your **** on tonight, baby, ya might consider stepping up the romance a wee notch. I'm still a little bummed that the majority of the time if I don't initiate affection, it doesn't happen. I know that's not always the case but I've tested it a few times lately and I don't wanna feel like I'm giving more than I'm getting. I know I could fix that by giving less but to me it's effortless and it's just who I am. I'm NOT saying you're like this but I'm leery of being with someone who's only affectionate when they want sex. That's how my ex was (to an extreme) and I felt sad, unloved and used all the time." I might add that he had a ten-year marriage before me and he frequently mentions his ex and we're always talking about mistakes in the past and how we're working to fix them. Bringing up an ex isn't a big issue with us, it's par for the course. PERFECT advice, "A Canadian." This is what I wrote instead... "So my sweetie's horny, hm? Well, you're gonna have to seduce me, babe. You know, the old-fashioned way. Romancing your woman. MAYBE you'll get some. ;)" I love your idea of making it a chase for him again. I've been wondering about a way to do that. You'll get B.A. whenever I can do it here in a while.

Should I make an effort to lose weight... do I sound too fat? Guys and girl opinions please? I'm about 5"1 and 133lbs.

how does this sound? opinions only plz ;)? “Should we go over?” said Sally quietly. “I don’t know,” said Marc. “Perhaps we should,” said Jessica. “We have to get Lucas back, that’s the whole reason we were sent to battle, to get him back.” “Oh I do hope he’s alright,” said Sally peering down into his cold face. “How has this happened!” raged a voice from the other side. “How have you done this?” “Who’s that?” whispered Jessica looking around the grounds nervously. “You’ve gone too far,” said the voice again. “It’s about time you were taught a lesson once and for all, now it’s time you taste my blood and see how long you survive from that.” They were all puzzled by the voice and kept close together when they heard the voice growing closer. The deep tones seemed to be howling all around them and they could sense another force around them but they could see nothing but the lonely grounds. “Oh,” said Sally backing up. “Oh, it can’t be.” “Oh yes it is,” said the voice and then Marc and Jessica finally caught a close up image of the creature that was speaking. He was creeping up towards them looking much larger and much more fearsome then before. It was Argyle, the one they all feared and loathed the most. From the rage bursting from his eyes, they could tell he was furious about something. He stopped and glared at them for a moment and walked over towards Hissero. He pressed his hand above his chest and then Sergon’s and then his hand began trembling uncontrollably. “You killed my son!” he said raising his claws. “Now you’ll pay, and same with this bloody valley. You’ll never see your home again, taste my fury.” “No,” cried Sally pressing her face against Jessica’s side. “No, leave us alone.” “Leave the children alone Argyle,” demanded a bold voice from behind. Sally slowly looked ahead and almost bursted out crying with joy when she saw four familiar faces coming forward. The Four Gods had arrived and they too, seemed just as furious with Argyle but it was a far different type of fury.

how does this sound, opinions please? i'm having my 13th birthday party with my 2 best friends. our theme is Hollywood, and we live in LA. we're planning on having an extremely exclusive, elite, glamorous bash. we are going to have a pre-party about 3 weeks before the party at one of our houses. this will be a pool party, just the normal with food ect. here we will hand out balloons that read "POP ME!" as the guests walk out the door at the end of the party. inside of the balloons will be our real party invitation, which is why you need to pop the balloon. (to get the invitation out.) at the real party, we're renting out a big space and having things that have to do with hollywood like a DJ, Rock Band (by Guitar Hero), henna tattoos, a red carpet, things like that. would you enjoy this? what would make it better? we're wealthy so money isn't a problem. any ideas would be appreciated. ew, i'm so over the comments about me being a rich snob. puh-leeze, keep it to yourself.

How does my intro sound?? Opinions? It's an essay on interpreting a quote about diversity Dr. Seuss coined the quote “Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don’t matter and those who matter don’t mind.” Prior to an interpretation, I’ll have to mention that oftentimes, people hold back from expressing themselves out of a fear of rejection by society. Some might not agree with our ideas, standards, ways of thinking -- and others might force their own beliefs upon us. The message that the quote is trying to give off is that we should not let a fear of unacceptance hold us back from being our true selves; and that we as a society should be open to the ideas of others, no matter the culture or race.

What Do You Think Of My Music Trust Me It Is not Cheaply Record OR anything It Has Good Sound Need Opinions.? www.myspace.com/purplecitypquon

Reschooling sound board - opinions please!? Hi everyone Got an OTTB, brief history - came off the track after winning a lot of money and was put in a university program. They couldn't jump him because of suspensory issues and he wouldn't calm down enough to be a lesson horse so he was given to a charity. He had a few weeks of natural horsemanship training and then I picked him up. He's pretty chilled out and we get along great. He's ridden in a D ring snaffle, that's it. Here's my question - he's obviously very one sided due to his days of running on left handed tracks and hates being lunged the other way (I make him anyway). He walks out well, bends around the legs, trotting isn't too bad but does has spurts of speed. He will relax at times and drop his head and get into a nice frame however transitions are appalling and cantering is rough with head throwing etc - very unbalanced. I'm taking it back down to the basics and am thinking of several ways to work him. Should I work on his one sided problem and get the walk and trot down to perfection, nice halts and smooth transitions etc before attempting canter work? Also do you think lunging with side reins would be of benefit. I don't want to change bits or add martingales etc and I want him to relax and go on a fairly loose rein with the end result being nice smooth paces, good transitions and balance. Any opinions or ideas. Should also mention that I ride him 5 days per week and after being ridden, he's turned out for about 5 hours per day. Cheers Lisa

I need opinions. I was thinking about the name Jackson Lee Shufelt for our 2nd son. How does that name sound?

How much better will different CD Player/Head Unit make the speakers sound? My old car had a JVC KD-G510 Head Unit that was powering 4 5x7 polk dbs and I had 2 10 inch Kicker subs with an Audiobahn amp and I liked the way it sounded. I had everything installed in my new car except the polks were switched to Polk MOMO 5 1/4s in the front doors and Polk MOMO 6x9s in the rear deck. After it was installed the JVC was causing problems, so i replaced it with a Sony CDX-GT400, which again is powering the speakers and I don't plan on buying an amp for them anytime soon. Anyway, after listening to everything with the new Sony, it sounds alot worse than my old system did (highs are terrible, bass isn't as deep and so on) especially with rock. I've changed all the settings and can't get it to sound right so I'm thinking of taking it back for a Pioneer DEH-4800MP. Will this new unit make the difference I'm looking for? Is it worth the trouble or will switching these decks not affect the sound significantly? Any opinions? Thanks I bought the JVC at Circuit City last year and had it reinstalled in the new car but it wasn't working right so I took it back and they covered the warranty by letting me pick a new one of similar price. I got the Sony because only JVC and Sony have front aux inputs but I'm not happy with it at all. I went back today and was going to get the Pioneer instead but they didnt have an opening today so I figured I would see what people thought on here before I decide for sure because I don't want to keep wasting my time trying to get this finished. Thanks for the help

Does my story sound okay? I need opinions on how it is and what I can change.? Day One The steady sound of fingernails drumming on a desk echoed throughout the school lobby. A young girl about the age of seventeen tapped her foot softly as she waited in line. Her waist-length light brown hair was covered up by a cameo green military hat that was tilted a little to the side. She wore a pink airbrushed shirt with a cherry blossom in the bottom right corner, and a pair of dark denim jeans. She pulled her Ipod headphones out of her ears as her turn came up. The secretary smiled brightly, “Hello, you must be new here.” She stated as she handed the girl a small piece of paper. The girl nodded and looked at the paper. She read the paper carefully and then exited the lobby. As she walked through the hallways of her new school a strong sense of fear washed over her,”What if this doesn’t work out? What if I stand out to much?” she thought to herself with a strong sigh. A young boy about the same age as her looked up from his book just before he ran into the young girl. The boy jumped up and looked around. He stretched his hand out to help the girl up, “Are you okay?” he asked with a small smile, “I am so sorry”. The girl nodded, “Its cool.” She said as she helped him pick up his books. The boy looked over at her, “My name is Zac” he said with a somewhat shaky voice. The girl nodded, “My name is Katherine.” Zac had dark brown spiky hair and emerald green eyes. He was wearing a white collared long sleeved-shirt and a pair of black jeans. He smiled at Katherine, “So are you new here?” he asked as he walked over to his locker. Katherine nodded, “I just moved here a few days ago.” Zac brushed some of his hair out of his eyes and looked over at Katherine, “Well Katherine I would like to be the first to welcome you to Certhill High School.” He stated with a bow. Katherine chuckled, “…You can call me Kat.” She said as she walked away. After she had left Zac leaned against the locker and smiled, “Kat” he repeated softly. A few weeks later Katherine walked into the lunch room. She grabbed a tray and looked at the strange substance that the school called food. She grimaced and then put her tray up, “I guess I am not eating today.” She said with a smirk. Kat looked around at all of the different kinds of people that scrambled around the school cafeteria. You had so many stereotypes. There were jocks, cheerleaders, geeks, goths, and people like her and Zac, who were considered normal or average. “Normal…a word that is definitely not in my life dictionary” she thought to herself. Kat sighed softly and the started to walk out of the lunch room. She made her way into the gym and saw more people. The cheerleaders were practicing and a few other girls were playing volleyball. One of the cheerleaders sat by the volleyball net criticizing the volleyball players. The cheerleaders went back to their spots and started giggling and pointing at the girls playing volleyball. Kat walked pass the cheerleaders and before she could reach the bleachers one of the cheerleaders called her over, “You’re new here aren’t you? Usually I am pretty good at remembering faces.” She sated with a perky giggle. Kat nodded, “Yeah, today is my first day.” She said trying to smile. The cheerleader twirled her strawberry blonde silky hair around her index finger, “My name is Melanie. I am the head cheerleader here at Certhill high.” She said with her same peppy voice. Kat nodded, “What an achievement.” She answered with an annoyed tone. Melanie raised an eyebrow, “Excuse me? I consider that and achievement.” She said with a hand roughly placed on her hip. Kat smirked, “Oh please, don’t seem so offended. I just saw you antagonizing those girls.” She said pointing to the volleyball players. Melanie glared at Kat, “The reason I can do that is because I am better than them.” She hissed. Kat chuckled, “What makes you so much better, your “cheerleading” skills? Please doing a few flips is not that hard.” She said with a look of frustration on her face. Melanie smirked, “If it is so easy I would like to see you do a back flip…on the floor without using the mini trampoline.” She said showing her to the long blue matt. Kat nodded and walked to the beginning of the matt. She placed her hat on the floor and turned around, “This is a piece of cake compared to some of the other things I have done.” She thought to herself. Kat groaned as she saw a crowd gathering in the gym. She took a breath and did back flips down the entire matt, and then ending in a front handspring. She picked up her hat, “Anything else?” she asked with a smirk. Melanie frowned, “That is no big deal. It is not like I can’t do that.” She said with a small smile. One of the other cheerleaders leaned close to her, “Mel you can’t do that.” She whispered. “Shut up!!” Melanie yelled as she walked out of the gym. Zac walked out of the crowd, “So we have a new cheerleader I presume?” he asked with a smirk. Kat shook her head, “No way am I getting g myself into something like that.” She chuckled. Zac nodded, “So how did you like the food?” he asked as the walked over to Kat’s locker. She looked up at him before opening it, “It was the best darn food I have ever tasted.” She answered sarcastically. Kat’s stomach growled and Zac chuckled, “I guess that says it all.” He remarked with a smile. Zac turned towards the door, “Well, I guess I will see you Monday.” He said looking back. Kat nodded, “Guess so.” She said as Zac exited the school. Kat leaned against her locker and smiled, “This wasn’t such a bad first day.” She thought to herself .

What are your opinions about getting a sweet and lovely sound from the violin? What do you consider

When I hear a person when they express opinions on topics, they sound like the whole world thinks the same? From my personal experience, when I talk to my friends or people, their tone of voices make it seem TO ME as though they generalize their opinions to make it seem as though the whole world thinks the same as them and making it sound like a fact when opinions have no right or wrong answer. They sound like I need to follow along with them or I am not cool. A fact to tell you is that when people express opinions, they use adjectives. Also, I think that when people ask a question and a person thinks it is ridiculous, they always say "You should know that by now." Even though it might seem ridiculous, it is mean and obnoxious to say that out loud, or any time someone says the phrase '"You should" to a person in my opinion. Yet another thing I am annoyed at is how scientists seem to come up with facts that disprove some beliefs of the Catholic religion, like the Big Bang theory. How can they disprove that? That is impossible because since you cannot disprove God, you cannot disprove anything God did, any Catholic belief or any religious belief. I say it is all opinion, and since it is opinion, it will remain mystery. Nothing can correct the fact that an opinion cannot be correct or incorrect. Also, when someone says the words "I believe" or "I believe in," that makes whatever that person said into an opinion. You can see that I can go on forever about this, right?

Does this sound okay?. Opinions please? I just want to know if it sounds ok.... It's really short. Thanks Chapter 1: My normality Everyone says the good and best thing about turning twenty-one is that you can drink liquor (legally) whenever and however you like without getting hassled by the liquor store cashier or bartender at a club. And it’s crucial to have your identification card; because without it, you’re pretty much screwed. And what’s even more humiliating, is that your begging for that eighty percent proof Tito’s Vodka bottle on the shelf behind the cashier's desk like your life depended on it. But me. I'm hardly a drinker. When I turned twenty-one last month it was just another boring day.

Does this sound depression...Opinions please? I haven't officially be diagnosed with anything, although my regular doctor says I am depressed (after speaking with me for 5 mins). I have me first psychiatrist appointment, although I have been seeing a therapist. Basically, I have suicidal thoughts all the time. When they become too extreme (like last night), I usually take a bunch pills (sleeping or otherwise), to go to sleep...whatever happens happens. I have some issues going on in my life that are making me miserable. Most people do not know what is going on because I do not show it. I do smile, laugh at times. However, generally, my mood is pretty mellow. What do you think?

haha this will sound silly-opinions? So every time I go into the pregnancy section on y!a i get really jealous of the women on there. I've made a firm decision: no kids until i'm married, at least 27, and financially secure. But I always look at the pictures and the questions and it really makes me want kids of my own :) This also seems to happen when I see mother's around my age with little kids, or just little kids and babies in general; I look at them and can't help but think "I want one of you." I'll obviously wait..but still; anybody else get this?

Does this sound too weird for an e-mail to my boss? I work on campus and I need to e-mail my boss because I have had a migraine all day and probably won't feel well enough to go to work tomorrow. Does this sound okay? Any opinions? I haven't been feeling very well at all tonight and I am not sure that I will make it in to work tomorrow. I'm sorry for any inconvenience.

Which is a better sound system in your opinion? A: Having total surround sound, 5.1, 6.1 or otherwise OR B: X-rocker chair :) personally, I'm all for x-rocker, but of course it couldn't achieve the sounds that surround could, in a movie for example. There is much less wiring to deal with, its great for a computer, and it's very comfortable. Take care of it, and it will last a long time.

Does this sound like a pregnancy?? just want some opinions? Alright so last month in february I messed up my birth control so I decided to stop taking it and just start a fresh back after I had my period. I stopped the old pack a few days before my period pill week. I was supposed to get my period around the 15th of this month but I never got it. So after being about three days late I decided that I would just take the new pack hoping to get my cycle back on track. Soo I am now three weeks late and I dont know what is up. Im thinking that it could jsut be my cycle messed up from going on and off the pill but im not sure. A week or so before my period was due I had light bleeding on and off but with no cramps. Im not sure if i have had any real symptoms of pregnancy because of the birth control besides being really bloated and somewhat more tired, but im still worried. About a week before my period was due i got a physical and they took my blood but it came up negative to pregnancy.. can a blood test show up that soon?? Has anyone ever gotten a false negative with blood work? Im taking a test tomorrow morning but i just wanted some opinions i know its sounds confusing but still any replies would be appreciated :)
