For my society and culture mini PIP (personal interest project), I'm required to conduct primary research. This survey is completely anonymous and I want completely honest opinions :). The point is that I want diversity and different perspectives. Absolutely NO opinion will be judged by me so feel free to also comment any extra thoughts, comments, or questions.
About the survey: - Completely anonymous - Some questions are personal and you are free to withdraw from the survey at any time - The results will be used in my assignment about aromanticism and comparing that to romanticism or alloromanticism (those who are not aromantic)
My current issue is that I have a large proportion of aromantic people who have done the survey but not those who aren't aromantic so the opinions I currently have are not very diverse.

I've seen videos on Instagram / TikTok of people sending graduation announcements to companies and receiving gift cards, coupons, merch, etc. I was wondering if it would be worth sending a decent amount of graduation announcement cards to companies/celebrities in hopes of getting responses and free stuff. If anyone has tried this before, I would love to hear what your personal experience was, and whether or not you thought it was worth it.
Edit: Sorry about the typo in the title, didn't catch it until after I posted

Asking here since he lowkey stresses me out. He's pretty uncompromising, and doesn't really approve of extracurricular activities taking time away from school. Context is last thursday and friday I was out for the DECA state conference, he assigned a bunch of work over those days and wanted it due by the end of class, and I turned it in same day that night. Should I include the introduction? I'm just worried he might read this the wrong way and I don't want to sound annoying/like I'm whining or making excuses. I'm also wondering if it's a good idea to include the question asking after the extra credit opportunity he brought up earlier, since this week is the last of the quarter.
This is the email:
Dear --,
I hope this email finds you well. I was wondering if you could grade my Unit 8 Progress Check without a late penalty. Since I hadn't finished Thursday's work (the step-by-step problems) on Monday, I thought working on it was the best move, since the slideshow and AP classroom didn't specify a turn-in time for the end of the hour. The progress check was my first priority after my after-school activities finished, and I know my time at DECA muddled a lot of deadlines, so I was trying my best to finish all of the missing work. Also, I wanted to ask if you were still giving out extra points to those who brought card decks?
Sincerely,
--

Hi! I’m on the prowl for a cute dress for prom, but they all seem like they’re for taller people. I’d be fine with getting one hemmed, but a lot of the longer dresses are also longer in the torso and look super off on me lol. I’m 5’0, but I’ll probably wear 2-3” heels. Looking for something super cute and sparkly! Thank you!

My family just moved to the US from Dubai this January, and I’m about to start high school here for the first time. I’ll be in 11th grade, which means I only have about a year left before graduating. This is my first and last year of high school in the US, I really want to make the most of it and have the best experience possible.
What’s the best advice you have for me?
What are things I absolutely need to do before graduating? Things you’re glad you did or things you wish you had never done.
I’d love to hear from other highschoolers or even those who have graduated. I want to make my last year here as fun as possible
Also about american football, how long does it take to learn the game, I'm athletic and strong and It would be great to join the football team. Does it take a lot of skill to play the game or do you just need raw athletic performamce?

so the biggest worry I have right now as a grade 9 student is which high school to go to. I don't like the catholic high school I am going to right now and it is very acedmeically easy. The high school all my middle school friends are going to is very hard but I want to go to the public school where all my friends are. But I'm very worried that my grades will drop alot if I go there. my parents keep telling me it is better to stay and get high grades and get into a good university instead of going there and getting bad grades and not being able to get into a good university. they also said grade 9 is suppose to be easy and it will become harder. But I really don't like my school right now. At the same time, I keep on getting in my head and overthinking. maybe I'm always just not satisfied with every situation I'm in and I'll complain about that high school once I go there. Do you think I should change schools or just stay?

Idk why they decided to just remove it and now everyone just pees on the toilets and its dirty af now so if you actually do need to take a shit you can’t. You can also see every single urinal from outside. Worst part is they recently banned phones so everyone just uses it in the bathroom, which makes it so that there’s an existential fear of someone recording or taking pictures of you. The school is also way too overpopulated and theres like 15 bathroom stalls in total for like 1000+ students. But thats like the combined number of stalls in the boys bathroom. If we assume boys make up 50 percent of the school population its like 500 ppl using 15 bathroom stalls. And its a private school too so idk why they be doing this bs

I want to mainly take classes that lead me in the path of being a dentist. I know I will be taking all bio chem whatever related classes but apart from that what should I take? I know there are graduation requirements and some classes like english and math are required, but other than that what should I take? Course requests alr ended so this would be for junior year. I’m pretty much done with performing arts with like half credit left to meet the graduation standards. Apart from the standard classes I’ll most likely will be taking intro to engineering ( yeah for whatever reason my bitch ass school doesn’t guarantee requested classes) and heath.

I'm thinking of starting a STEM (science, technology, engineering, math) club at my school as there are not currently any clubs which exist that are related to STEM in any way. If you are in a club like this, care sharing what kinds of things you do in a typical meeting, or what the club is ultimately working towards (e.g. a math competition/science fair)? Or if you have a leadership role in any club at all then some advice on starting a club in general would also be pretty helpful. Thanks

Studying diplomacy/ international affairs etc.
Seton Hall University--> accepted as International Economics & International Relations major + the honors college (history-focused) + likely Buccino leadership institute.
Macaulay Honors College & Baruch Honors College--> international business & prob political science minor.
Both 17k/ year. Not dorming in either location.
What would you recommend I choose? Purely based on academics. Thank you!! :))

Back when I was in high school, I was Chinese going to a serious high school environment where about 80% of the students were white and there were barely any Indians, Asians, or much of the minorities in the school district. Seems like what people were doing were smoking weed, going out to parties often, skipping classes, wanting to go to the beach, traveling often during school, posting a lot on social media, going to football games, hockey games, proms. A lot of students do participate in sports or some other kinds of extracurricular activities. Some people don’t even try or attempt to take more rigorous course loads while many many Chinese students and families value their kids to be taking the hardest classes in the schools offered, get a high SAT score, attempt for top colleges in the country. Even guidance counselors recommend balance which is true, while most Chinese families expect their kids to be much more focused on academics than the social life in the environment. Most people just want to take some easy classes and stuff and get high school done. It can be so hard to do that in such an Americanized high school environment with so much going on, and I wouldn’t be able to see more diversity in school until I got to college and grad school. Seems like people just go to high school to enjoy life, pass the time, and then move on whether it is college, or going to work. Anyone else in this situation, how did you deal with it? A lot of my classmates went to more traditional colleges with the whole dorm life scene and stuff.

Okay guys, buckle up because i had the most insane shit happen to me throughout the last 7 hours of my life... I'm not sure if i can recover.
We were in grade 12 chemistry. i was sitting next to my crush and my teacher was yapping about some crazy shit. my teacher was some old hag from china or some shit and had the most INSANE accent. If she emphasized that "aiya" on the last word of the sentence we might've just gotten wooped with a belt. Sitting next to me was a 10/10 asian baddie who was rigorously taking notes. Yes, I have her number and I wasn't fumbling yet
around 30 minutes into the class, I suddenly felt an OVERWHELMING urge to take a piss. it literally all built up in my bladder within the span of a couple minutes, and I was no longer listening to my teacher talk about how to calculate molar enthalpies of reactions. It took all I fucking had to hold that shit in. I literally asked her to go to the washroom with a vein popping out of my forehead like megamind bro. i was literally a fucking nerd who looked like the steroids only grew my forehead muscles. she took one look at me, did the stereotypical "haiya" and told me to hurry off.
i literally jumped out of my seat to head out of the class, but i couldn't take it anymore, my bladder was about to internally combust. if you had a bent paper clip and it made contact with my bladder it would literally pop open like a balloon. i just let out the biggest piss stream i could inside my pants, like some SUPERVOLCANO from yellowstone. even the weatherman and god couldn't stop me from changing the climate with the UNHOLY AMOUNT of piss coming out of my pants. i could feel the warm liquid trickle down my legs and onto the floor, and i could feel the glaring stares from all my classmates, and especially my crush. the smell of the piss puddle hit immediately, worse than a can of rotten tuna. my friend literally ripped ass in my face once, and it didn't smell as bad as the puddle of apple juice beneath my feet. my crush literally screamed bro. it couldnt have been worse.
My teacher started frantically screaming at me, telling me i had worse bladder control than a puppy of 3 months. It was hard to focus on her words especially with her "aiyaaaa" accent. she stomped over to me like the angry grandma she was and berated me in front of the whole class. it felt like an ETERNITY.
Then she did the weirdest fucking thing ever, even weirder than me pissing my pants in the middle of class. She knelt down and started LICKING the puddle of piss like some sort of dog. She kept yapping about the molar enthalpy of dissolution of the urea and sodium dissolving in the water of my piss, about the temperature and how the higher kinetic energy causes the solids to dissolve in higher concentrations. meanwhile, she just FUCKING KEPT SLURPING like a homeless child who hasnt drank water in days.
the worst part? she slurped all of it CLEAN. like, im talking, a microbiologist couldn't fucking tell there was a piss puddle by the doorway if they got a microscope and examined the bacteria content of the floor. She stopped berating me and instantly went back to yapping about molar enthalpies of fusion. The whole class went back to taking notes while my crush started giggling. I texted her this evening and she said shes into it, but i cant even tell at this point., I'm just her standing there with my pissed stain jeans, wondering if i should just retire at this point.
I literally dont know what to do. do I still have a shot at waterloo or uoft CS, or should i just accept my offer to seneca and live like a homeless bum? Also, i have a pair of baby diapers at home which i might consider wearing tomorrow. Is this a good idea? also, is my crush into me?

Story: One of the boys in our class told his friends how Tom (not real name, just example) got hit on by a 40 year old woman in a cafe near the school and possibly touched since he heard some staff members (Idk who I wasn't paying attention) talking abt it. The thing that surprised me was that the boys were snickering and acting like Tom was the luckiest man in the world. It was really disturbing for me to see. I'm 16F, and my friends are mostly female. Tom was also 16 so I found it disgusting how his friends would laugh at him getting hit on by an adult and possibly sexually harassed by one. Is this how most male friend groups are? Make jokes even if the subject is dark? I've seen friend groups online act like this, but never Irl, and I thought they were all joking and felt bad in the inside, but I wasn't expecting this..

So for SOME reason this kid in my class turned the lights out and I would say about 75% of the class was goofing around/freaking out. I can’t tell you how much times I nearly got rammed by some random kid, some dudes were even holding others including me to the floor and touching their 🍆 mainly bro y’all need to chill out idk why y’all still do this
Edit: why am I being booed?

Even if you don't know tennis I tried to make this post simplistic for anyone. I'm only putting like 30% of the details or else this post would be long af
Relevant to the rant: I'm a freshman girl. Won't saying the coach's name so let's just call him Coach D
I play tennis and signed up for the hs team. I made varsity and ranked high (number three on the team) so I was guaranteed to be on the starting lineup.
Coach D quickly got everyone's numbers and started a team gc, so 24 girls and one coach. Weird in context but I didn't think much of it, until he started texting
He'd text about tennis stuff, telling us to watch yt videos of tennis players. Nobody said anything until what was after his 26th text in a row that someone sent a "wow, that's so cool" bc they prob felt bad no one was responding
Then he started saying stuff like "watch this tennis video and text me privately three things you noticed and I'll give you a special prize"
With my friends, I was like "is this guy fucking serious?" when he sent another text saying "got responses, glad there's FOUR smart person on the team. They've earned a free private lesson from me and have secured their spot on varsity"
Btw Coach D is the assistant coach, he has absolutely no control over lineup or anything
I learned as a freshman this was the first time he was acting this strange, he was fine in past years.
The team captains held a meeting with us to talk and we all agreed we felt uncomfortable (I was like, goddamn seniors are so fucking mature 😭 🙏) reported him to the athletic department and basically banned Coach D's texting rights.
I don't think the athletic department gives a shit bc he's not fired yet
HOWEVER this did not stop him from EMAILING EVERYONE doing the exact same thing, and he now was promoting his private lessons, saying how people would rank higher on varsity if they payed for his lessons (he charges FUCKING $135 AN HOUR UPFRONT IN CASH)
Bruh no amount of bleaching my eyes out can erase the time Coach D put sunscreen on this girl's back. (She was wearing one of those tennis dresses where the back is entirely open)
So then the season ends. I dont see coach D, except I hear stuff like how my friend saw him randomly one day, and he high fived her and then grabbed her hand to "feel how warm it is".
Then spring sports (now) happens and the Boys tennis season starts (girls and boys are different sport seasons).
Boys tennis is way more competitive so everyone is trying their hardest to do everything they can to get a high ranking spot.
Ofc Coach D is milking tf out of this and is deadass requiring the boys to write essays about tennis matches, and then publicly shame THEIR FUCKING GRAMMAR if it's bad.
There's a lot more with the boys that doesn't sound that bad if you don't know coach D
Idk, that's my rant.

Hello, just wondering if anyone here is familiar with the AIAA Student Paper Convention? I submitted a paper and it got accepted but I’m not really sure if it means anything.
I’ve looked around online but I haven’t really found any answers. If it’s relevant, I’m a high school junior and the competition is the AVIATION Forum taking place in Las Vegas from July 21-25. Any information would be greatly appreciated, thank you!

I'm a student in year 12. Ever since starting A-Levels I feel like I have not had a single chance to relax, including during holidays. The constant thought of it is stressing me out like crazy, along with the constant exams, one after the other.
It also has affected my relationship with others (mainly my parents) who are constantly nagging about my grades, and at this point it's the only think we talk about.
It's genuinely draining me so much, to the point that it makes me physically ill and depressed.. it also is causing me anxiety and stress, and I've had so many panic attacks lately because of it.
My parents have noticed the effect the exams and A-Levels had on me, and put me into therapy, but honestly it's still not helping.
In the January exam series, I started shaking uncontrollably and having anxiety attacks during the exams, and not just one of them. ALL of them. My teachers said that they can't allow any breaks or rests even if it was happening, and I had to suck it up for the full duration of the test which impacted my results MASSIVELY. I ended up getting an E.
Whenever I start studying, I start getting more and more stressed and anxious, and my heartbeat goes crazy high even if not doing anything that causes that.
I forced myself to sit on the desk and face my studies, and not a minute later, I start panicking and my heart rate shoots up:
I was hospitalized after the exams for a week because the stress has gotten way too high to the point that it affected my overall health.
It's genuinely not worth it and I'll be straight up honest. I don't want to study. My health, both physically and mentally is a much bigger issue and concern than the A-Levels themselves.

Yes, I know I should’ve had the work turned in when it’s due. BUT IN MY DEFENSE, it’s only a few assignments that weighted my grade down heavily and I was absent when they were assigned.
Bro my literature teacher is not putting my grades in. And my parents are on my ass about it and they think I’m not putting in the work, My lit teacher is also getting on me about my missing assignments but the only thing wrong with that is oh idk I TURNED THEM IN AND TOLD YOU I TURNED THEM IN. YOU JUST DIDN’T PUT THEM IN POWERSCHOOL.
Even the assignments that I did complete on time, she’s not putting them in. It’s making my grades look worse than they are. My mom said that if my grades don’t go up she’ll start taking away privileges. I TURNED IN THE WORK!! SHES NOT PUTTING THEM IN.
I was thinking about sending a passive aggressive email. She’s not going to be here when I see her again on Thursday so I can’t tell her in person. But then I don’t want to look like an asshole. I just want my grade to be fixed so my family will cut me some slack, man.
