Hello, I'm 16 years old and identify myself as Christian. My dads a Muslim and my mum is Christian, I was given a free choice however and after a very very short trip in Islam. I stuck with Christianity. Despite that, I never have felt a 'connection' with my religion. I'm one of those people who are old fashioned, religion is hugely important for me but I just don't feel it. I pray but even when I do, it feels like something I have to do, not want to do. Half the time I stop halfway. I tried reading the Bible but I'm so busy these days. What do I do? I come from a Christian/Muslim/Atheist family, so theres a lot of diverse thoughts. I believe in God but I'm not sure if Christianity is for me, I am drawn to Buddhism. The peace and direction of it, yet I do believe in God. I'm struggling to find an identity.

Hello people, I've just started a job, decent wage and as it stands, I've earned £16 so far, and next will bring in £40. I'm also working tomorrow, now, I'm 16 so no bills thank God and no priorities.

I've noticed my Iphone 4S is really starting to fail, and with college next month, I need a new one. I decided a Nokia Lumia 520, cheap, nice and suits my plain needs :) I already have a great contract so it'll have to be a unlocked model. Roughly £80.

I'm just debating whether to spend what will probably be all my first salary on a mobile, or buy other stuff. I'm kinda geeky, so I want stupid things like the LoTR bookset, some vans, converse and other things like that. I know that either way, I'll get what I want, but I'm not sure whether to buy the phone first. I get paid bi-weekly, so I could always get my other stuff later, no biggie there. This is the only expensive thing I want, the other stuff is like books and DVDS, and since I get paid bi-weekly, its possible that next weeks salary, will be added with the nexts week one into one whole payment. So it could be more!

Ugh, how do I pick?!

Hello guys, I just got a job and my shifts have been updated, as I'm 16, its not much work. Next Monday, its 10:30-15:00, and it is also that on friday.

I earn £5.05 an hour, I know it sounds silly but, I like to plan my finances ahead. How much will I earn per day?

Also, theres a request more work option, and there are several shifts available, do you think I should apply for some? I've just joined and I don't mind working but I'm not sure what management thinks. I did 11:00-14:00 today, and my boss told me to start at 11:00 tomorrow. I'd like at least one or two more days a week, so 3/4 days. Thanks.

This is just something I'm wondering. If I catch a plane to London at 21:00 (San Diego time), what time (London time) would I arrive in England? With the time difference. Ten points. Thanks.

Lets say I leave on Saturday night.

Hello, I'm starting college in September and I plan on studying;

English Literature

History

Economics

Business (BTEC)

The plan is to work towards Accountancy, I've looked at the training schemes, and most only require THREE GCSEs! Thats it! But I am still looking to complete A-Levels. I was thinking maths but thankfully, it isn't required.

Hello. I've just finished my last GCSE exams and whilst I intend to enjoy summer! I need to think about careers. I first considered working in film, as a director or cinematographer but I realise its incredibly unrealistic to really 'break' into it. I also considered teaching history, as I am great at it and love the subject or accounting. I love maths, but I'm terrible at it, I can do multiplications, division, fractions, but I struggle at other things like expanding, the things they put into GCSEs. I expect to get high grades at GCSE, and whilst I hope to 'pass' maths, with a C. I'm still awful at it. I'd love to do accounting though, I'm mature with money, and I can see myself doing. Really people, how important is maths in it? I can do maths, but not the maths which we don't even use! I love the idea of accounting and the chartered courses only require 3 GCSE passes! I've already got them. I plan on doing A-Levels (English, History, Photography and Film Studies) but most people are either saying; Maths is important, do maths A-Levels, and others are saying it isn't even needed!

Please help!

Hey. I leave school on June 13th an since its finally over, I plan to enjoy my 3 month holiday :D

I live in London so I've already got plans but I also want to gain muscle/weight and stick with a sport. I live like two minutes away from Victoria Park (Bow) and I want to try archery. The problem is the cost, whilst I can save up for a bow, I wonder where can I actually use it legally and most clubs are too expensive. I really want to get into it though, has interested me since I was a kid and its something I want to at least try.

I'll probably make one at home before :D

So what can I do?

Recently, I've been looking into communism and I've got several questions.

1: Why is communism hated so much?

2: Why are communists targeted? And why were they in the past? E.g, McCarthyism and The Red Scare?

3: Whats the modern view on Communism?

4: How 'big' is the following?

5: What if I decided to be a communist?

Thanks. This isn't a troll, its genuine.

I've been searching for a good camera and I've found this one. I know its 'old' in terms of technology but how would it fare for A-Level useage and personal? I need a camera because whilst I could borrow one, I'd love to have one I can claim as my own and I am also willing to save for it.

So I'm not chasing the most fanciest one off the market and this one is within my price range and sounds great. If I get it, it'll be this one:

What else will I need for it?

Thanks!

I'm writing a trilogy based on the idea of sin. A character has sinned and didn't pay, therefore someone else must. I want three words to do with the process of reaching salvation, e.g, repetence, redemption

10 points! Urgent!

Theres a girl I like. As in, *Really* like. I've been trying to get close to her in the past four/five months and I even got her a valentines card. Over the february schoolbreak it kinda broke down a little and it wasn't until last week that we started talking again. There was some admissions and apologies and we looked to be going good. She even texted me that night. Come sunday, I hadn't heard from her again but I just decided to brush it off. So theres this guy who came to me in PE one day and joked how, as her 'cousin', he didn't want any hanky panky and how he saw the card. I joked along.

The other day, we were outside and he called my name, he was holding her in a incredibly sexual way and grinding against her. I just turned away, what the hell was going on? Next thing he took my planner and ripped the bindings out. So the other day I asked her friend who he was and she revealed they were dating. Huge shock. But by now, I was past caring, hell, there are still feelings but why waste my time? Today, I did some afterschool history and he was there with her. They were all coupled up, I didn't care. On the walk home though, he said to her 'Say goodbye to your boyfriend' twice and she did. I simply said 'You're too inconsistant' and walked away. Why would he do that? First claim to be her cousin, then just swoop in despite my efforts and now mock me? Its the mocking which hurt because, I do care for her but it seems like its a huge joke to them both. I didn't even engage.

Since moving to London, I've really realised my heritage is unique. Jamaican and Turkish! I've met several turkish people and I think its time I learn it. I'm studying French GCSE right now but I want to know Turkish as its my heritage. Where do I start? My dad is always busy and lives across the river whilst I don't know anyone who could dedicate their time. After my GCSE'S, Where do you suggest i start?

School is nearly over and I plan on getting a camera after. I want to work in film and photography also interests me, I might study it at A-Level. I have an Iphone 4S And Ipod Touch 4th gen which can be used. I do also have a camera, Sony Cybershot DSC-W310 12.1M but when images are taken lines appear and still remain when I upload them. I just want a really good camera to take great photos, I wouldn't mind a pricey one. As I can start saving now, I'll get it around July. For my birthday so it doesn't matter how big. One I can use to go out in the city and take great pictures with. Thanks! And what accessories will I need?

Thanks!

I'm 15 and have just started writing my screenplays, all original ideas. So far I've written a 4-5 page short, and I'm in the process of finishing another project, this one is a feature. Also, I've got one more idea I'm developing and two others. What should I use as my portfolio? I'm considering writing a speculation script and TV bible but I'm not sure on these.

If the spec script literally anything I want to adapt into a screenplay? Just as an example? And the TV stuff? I'm not sure where to start there. Thanks! 10 Points.

I just finished watching the Great Gatsby and to my genuine shock, its pretty fantastic however, I can't help but notice that there are so many traits of Mr Gatsby which I also have.

We both are generous without wanting anything, despite the fact that his parties were designed to get someones attention, he never asked for anything from his guests. He also loves Daisy and will do his best to swoon her, even though she doesn't deserve his love. I'm going through something like that, people also say I'm mysterious yet charming like Gatsby. It shocked me, normally I'll say things like 'Damn, wish I had Tony Starks tech' but this is something where I actually see the link. My question? I don't even know. You tell me.

Long story here. I feel like, in life, I may be too kind and selfless. I'm 15, moved to London last year and have just settled. At first I was depressed at school but now I'm back to my charming and outgoing self.

Yet I keep my kindness.

Here's some examples:

1: Whenever something is needed at home, I'll volunteer whilst others will moan

2: The other day, me and a friend were waiting for the bus and a guy asked if it was frequent. I said yeah and he went to the shop, the bus pulled up so I ran to the shop and made sure he got on the bus.

3: I give up many lunch lessons helping a thai boy do english work

4: If I get money, I'll tend to spend most of it on crap or others

5: I got £80 from trade-ins the other day and I won't stop till the guy who offered to do it for me will take some reward

6: A girl I like, I got her a valentines card and chocolates.

7: Oeople always says I'm kind

8: In history, I'll always help some guys who aren't even like me and one even said I'm a kind

I've had this since 2010 and have just dug it out again. Whilst the camera is awesome there's a problem. When pictures are taken, lines will appear, clear lines across the image. The box is long gone and I don't think a repair is possible. I had to send it for a repair before because my brother dropped it and I really want to use it. The video works well but pictures will always come out as being filled with lines. I can still take pictures but where's the fun in that?
