I'm writing a prologue for a story I'm writing, and in the prologue an old man tells his son a story. The story is crucial to the rest of the story, so it has to be told, but I'm not sure how I'm supposed to write the story within the story. Do I just use quotation marks around it and tell the story or is there a proper format for a scene like this?

Any help would be appreciated.

For the past 7 or 8 months I've liked this guy. At first I thought that it was a passing feeling (like when you meet an attractive person and you think you like them, but you really don't) and that it would go away soon, but it didn't. In fact, as time went on, I realized that I only liked him more and more. Some nights I would cry over him. Simply seeing him would brighten my day so much. A week before his graduation, I cried every night because I didn't want him to go, and I couldn't stop. I know this sounds so lame and pathetic, but it's the truth.

After graduation I thought that I would never see him again and thought that I could get over it. It was hard, because I kept thinking about him and sometimes I would feel like I couldn't breathe when I thought about him (nothing dangerous, but it hasn't ever happened to me). But after a while, I convinced myself that I wouldn't see him. Then I saw him one day, and was so upset that I ran away and cried. And after seeing him a couple more times, my friend started gushing about how she saw him too, and I started crying again. I couldn't stop myself, and it hurt so much. I know it sounds stupid and I'm sorry, but I just don't know.

I've liked people before, but I've never cried over them; much less to the extent I've cried over this guy. It's like I can't stop liking him and when I try to stop...It just doesn't work. I've tried so many times and I just can't. Is crying normal? Thanks.

What does умribedma mean? I'm trying to translate something from something either Russian or Ukrainian to English, and I can't figure it out (I don't speak russian...) can someone tell me??? A russian co-worker of mine wrote it and I don't know what it means.

I'm doing an English presentation, complete with a visual aid. I'm planning to do a powerpoint. We can present on anything we want, as long as it's appropriate. As I'm in high school, I would like to do something that is an interest to my peers. Preferably something funny. I know that one of my classmates is going to do 'How to be a Tumblr Girl' and I want to do something that is like that although not exactly like that.

I'm interested in English, art, games, and mostly the internet. Any suggestions for what I can do for a presentation? I don't really want to do food as I've done it many times before and don't want to buy things for this presentation if I can help it. Thanks!

Today I found out about one of my classmate's past. They didn't tell me. No one told me. I figured it out. And I have proof.

I didn't want to find out like this. I don't know if I ever really wanted to find out, but I did. And now I'm not sure what to do about it. I'm so shocked I can hardly even breathe. I'm so sad that I'm dangerously close to crying. And I don't know how to act around them tomorrow. I don't talk to them at all, but it's a person who my friends love to talk about (adoringly, of course.), and if I don't gushed about them with my friends, then they're going to know that something's up. I don't know what to do. I'm afraid I'm going to go mad. What do I do?

I'm making a YouTube channel, but I don't know what to name it.

A bit about myself:

My name is Luna. I'm a high school student. I'm Asian, if it helps.

I like anime (but I'm not an otaku), I like to write, fangirl, read, and draw.

This Channel is probably going to be vlogs more than anything. Maybe some of those comedy things. And you know, not-so-normal teenage girl things.

I like to joke around that I'm queen and whatnot, so I make a lot of royalty jokes. I was wondering if that would be something to incorporate? It doesn't have to though.

I'm thinking about starting a YouTube channel, but I don't know what to make videos about. I was thinking about doing vlogs and rants for my channel, but I don't know what to do for my first video. I want to make it interesting, but I don't know what to do for my video. Any suggestions?

Two years ago, I tried writing a story with a bunch of my friends in it. I soon quit that story, but I picked it up again in an attempt to rewrite it. This version was far different. This version is much darker and has a solid plot line. However, this story is related to most of the other stories I'm writing. Let's call this story A. For example, some of the characters from my other stories appear Story A and characters from Story A appear in my other stories (as cameos, but they're important as they influence the main character's life) In short, I don't know which to publish first. Should I publish the story that interrelates all the stories first (Story A) Or should I publish one of my other stories first? Which would make the most sense? And why?

Alright, so I'd say that I like this guy. He's a senior, and exactly three months from now, I'll never see him again. I tried in October to forget about him, so I ignored him for about a week. I tried again in December, and then I tried again in January and February, but I just can't. My friends always talk about him. I see him at school. And when I try to avoid him, I always find myself mentally timing myself so that I'll bump into him on the way to class, or wishing that I'd bump into him by accident somewhere. I can't ignore him, and I find myself thinking about him a lot. Even on weekends, I kind of miss him, so I look forward to school on Mondays and dread Fridays.

Even when this other guy told me that he likes me, the first thing I thought of was the senior I like. It's really sad, because this guy who likes me is one of my friends and a really nice guy. the senior I like is an ***. Not in the worst way, but he's very very sarcastic and can be kinda mean. I used to like nice guys, but now...I can't. It's just him.

How do I give up on his guy?

Alright, so came up with this idea a little under two years ago, and I published it once before, trudging into it aimlessly. However, I stopped about twelve chapters in, as I realized I had no read plot. Since then, I've reworked the story into something totally different. Same characters, just a very different, more in-depth plot.

This story originally took place at a school in Japan. Why? Because I put my friends here at the time, and I was a stupid middle schooler who thought that putting my story in Japan would be cool. Now I'm questioning whether I want to keep it in Japan. I'm reluctant to move it, since a lot of the character's names are Japanese, and It's not like I can change it because their my friends OCs and some of the characters are just too dear to me to change. Half of my other characters have non-Japanese (English) names. So I made it into a Japanese-American school located in Japan.

However, I'm actually going to re-publish this online, so I'm not sure if I want to keep it in Japan. Most stories take place in America or England or whatever. Not Japan. I'm debating whether I should move it, but then it'll sound weird with all the Japanese kids who are main characters.

Also, I'm really not too sure about the generic American schooling system even though I do live in America. I live in Hawaii, and we're kind of different from the Mainlanders with our schools, in my opinion.

Sorry for the long description, but I really need help? Should I keep it in Japan, or move it to America?

I know that duck is Ahiru in Japanese, but I'm not sure if it's Katakana or Hiragana. My mother says it's hiragana because it's a Japanese word, but when I looked it up it was spelled in Katakana. But isn't Ahiru a Japanese word? Can someone help please? Preferably explain why it is what it is?

I was at Martial Arts a couple days ago, and someone twisted my wrist the wrong way, so now it's hurting. At first, thought it would be a mild twist and it would go away in a day or so, but then my hand started swelling. My right thumb is now significantly larger than my other thumb, and my fingers are all red. It's hard to close my hands, but I can kind of close them. I've been wearing an Ace bandage, but even when I take it off for several hours and I've my hand and wrist, my hand is still puffy. My wrist is normal sized through. I've sprained this same wrist before, though I don't remember my hand swelling like this. What's up with my hand/wrist?

I'm doing a National History Day project, and I'm trying to research for it, so I was looking up the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and I was wondering if it covered discrimination against homosexual people because it seems to only mention discrimination against: race, color, religion, sex, or national origin.

If you could help it would be much appreciated, thank you! :)

So, a few days ago, I met this group of guys who were visiting for a competition that I was helping out with. It was a weekend event, and I spent a lot of time with them, just talking and hanging out. Anyway, so long story short, I became pretty good friends (given that had only met them they day before) with two of them, and I managed to get their numbers. Normally, I'm rather reserved around guys, but these guys are different. I had ease talking to them, and I managed to ask them for their numbers under the excuse 'I'll never see them again.'

In the end, since I was helping out with the competition one of the guys asked me what I was doing after the competition. I told him that I didn't know, and he told me that I should go with him to the mall afterwards. I told him that I didn't know if I could, and asked why, and he said "It would be boring without you guys."

After that, they said goodbye and I hugged them. Then they left. I want to text them, but I mean, I can't really start a conversation with them for no reason. It's just kind of hard for me...and I don't think they're the type to message me first. I was initially not going to talk to them in general, but I find myself missing them (One in particular) and wishing I could talk to them again. It's really only been like, two days since I saw them, but it's starting to irritate me how I'm being all dopey and stuff, so I really want to do something about it.

I know that most people don't get why I'm so obsessed over people I met only a few days ago, but it's different. I can't explain it. It was like we connected, and I've only known them for a little bit and they're already pretty important to me, which is why I really want to text them, but I don't know how to do it without sounding super annoying. Any suggestions on how to text a guy without it making me seem annoying or needy or whatever it is?

So, I want to talk to his guy when I have the chance, but I don't know how to get his attention. I don't want to see desperate, and I just wanted to casually ease into a conversation with him. There's a fair going on next week, so I wanted to know if he knew about it. However, I don't know how to approach him and get his attention, as I'm really short, and he's super tall. Needless to say, I'm not particularly in his line of vision...I just want to naturally/casually talk to him so that I don't creep him out. Help? How do I get his attention, and what do I talk about? Tips?

I'm doing a history essay that requires us to talk about four famous peace activists, two from the past, and two current ones. I mainly need current ones peace activists though. Please help! List me some current peace activists.

There's a guy at my school who recently tranferred to my school at the way from Europe. His first language is Russian, but he's fluent in English. Normally, if there's a new person, I'll go and try to make friends with them. However, there are two thing that I don't know how to do. 1.) Talk to boys (unless they're my guys friends who I've known for years) 2.) I've never talked to a foreign exchange student.

I don't think the whole "foreign" thin is a problem, but I don't know how to talk to boys. The only period I have this student in my class is second period, and then we go to Lunch. I don't sit near him, as he sits in the back, and I sit in the front, so I can't exactly talk to him during class.

He seems pretty nice though, and seems to have a sense of humor, though he tends to be quiet during class and keep to himself unless someone else talks to him first. He seems to hang around with only one friend (who is also from Europe) when I see him at school. Sometimes kids in my class poke a bit of fun at him, but he doesn't seem to react, though I know it probably hurts just a bit. I can't imagine someone not feeling anything after being dissed like that, I suppose.

I don't know what to talk to him about, but I just wanna be friends with him, so I want to find something to talk with him about.

Or at least tips on how to talk to guys, and actually be interested in having a conversation with you.

I asked my friend, who is also and international student, and she told me to befriend him because he probably feels insecure being in a country he doesn't know, and with no native friends, as she puts it, which only motivates me more to talk to him.

I don't really stalk him, but I see him around school quite a bit during lunch, so yeah.

Any serious help would be much appreciated. Thank you!

I'm writing a action/adventure/romance story and have the beginning and end all planned out, but I need to plan out the middle. It's a sort of princess story, as strange as it may sound. The girl is a dreamer but rarely smiles because of her dark childhood. She's not the happiest, and hates herself. The boy hates his father because he is power hungry, isn't exactly close to his mother, but loves his little sister more than life itself. Because he loved his little sister, he can be compassionate and kind to others, though most of the time he's serious. I can't disclose too much information because I don't want others to copy my ideas (Even though I'm sure many people wouldn't). Their romance is more of a subplot than the main storyline, but I need them to bond and stuff. I don't have many ideas of how they can do that. The boy is a suitor to the girl, but he rarely sees her when she's dressed up as a princess because she mostly hangs out in the woods dressed like a boy. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you! <3
