If you're American, I NEED your help!

I'm from the UK in my 3rd year of University studying Broadcasting and Journalism. I was at a total loss for what I want to do with my life so decided that I should get some experience related to my degree that incorporates some form of travelling too.So, my question to you is, can you give me the names of any good/big radio stations over in the states?!I like music, especially rock so if there is...

How do you reference?! I'm afraid of failing if I don't learn soon!

The one and only thing I actually HATE about Uni is that they expect me to know how to reference. Straight off. There's no questions about whether we know, nor do they encourage you to come to them if you're unsure about.I had never even come across referencing until I came to Uni. And yet, they just assume that everyone knows how to do it. And I've tried to follow what they do, what I've...

Life would be easier without emotions sometimes

I get annoyed at myself for getting annoyed at my boyfriend.It's a frustrating circle. I only get annoyed at him because he's purposely winding me up. And because I'm away at Uni and I miss him, loads. I'm only an hour away but when you've got lectures and he's got work, it's hard to see each other often. Not forgetting we have been virtually inseparable since we met really.We both decided my...

my crumbling life? maybe ... or maybe not?

In the last two months I've lost my uncle, been diagnosed with depression caused by grief and had my boyfriend break up with me.Do you know what I realised, just now?We try so hard to be strong and hold on when we're going to fall but really realising you can't hold on to something anymore takes strength too.I hit my lowest point yesterday and I couldn't find a way to pull myself out, even talking...

When life knocks you down, do something that you can't get rid of.

I'm ready to get my second tattoo.It's going to be a tribute to my uncle who died in March after a 4 year battle with various cancers.My first one is of the breast cancer ribbon, in memory of my gran who died when I was 3. After I got that done in Feb I vowed I'd never get another tattoo and since my uncle died I've been toying with the idea of a new one.Last week my boyfriend broke up with me...

I'm happy. I'm angered. I use 'I' too much. And breathe ...

After neglecting my mibba for too long, I've come to the conclusion that I should have an emotional vent; both good and bad.I guess I should start with the tail end of 2010 which was rather good. It started terribly. Honestly, I had a horrible 6 months and I couldn't seem to find a silver lining to that cloud. But ...I had the best holiday with my fam & the extendeds too, in France.I got a job...

Never. Been. More. Impressed. For serious!

If you're an Avenged fan, you will be gob smacked at this! If you like music, you'll like this. If you want to be impressed beyond all comprehension, you will like this!Papa Gates just posted this video in a status on Facebook. Jimmy has been re born. I am not kidding.For the purpose of filling the word count, I will say now that this is the cutest and most incredible thing I have ever seen! I...

My humble request; profile re-vamp +& comment swap

The title says it all really.My profile bores me and I really don't know how to format it to make it all original, personal and individual so if you can do that sort of thing, I need you! Please! I haven't changed how my profile looks since I joined mibba. That feels like a very long time ago.And also, I'd like to do a comment swap with you. I started one last night on my story Misused, Mistakes....

If you're American, I need your help! +& YIKES!

So explain to me briefly how the American school system works please. I know you have freshmen, juniors, seniors etc. But I don't get what 'order' they go in. And seeing as I've got one story line that does rely on a basic knowledge of the grades and workings of the school system, it'd be helpful to know. Thank you!I'm old! And I don't want to be!Okay, maybe not old, but I'm almost at the age I...

Needles - Brain vs Body & Questions & Chuckles

So I got half way up my left ear pierced yesturday. I love it! But that's not the point. I don't mind needles. I've had enough jabs and piercings to not be scared or uncomfortable but my god I nearly passed out! I think it was the hot weather and adrenaline that caused it ...It felt like when I had my blood test around easter time. That mother was bruised for 3 weeks! LOLAnyway, what do you do...

So, you Avenged fans ...

I have a few questions for you;1) Are you going to see them?! If so, when/ where?! And if not, WHY?!2) Favourite track on Nightmare? Mine is Victim I think ...3) Is it Jonny singing on Victim? You know, the backing 'ooh' 'ahhh' type stuff? Their Ustream interview mentioned it but I foolishly didn't listen carefully enough at that point.4) Does anyone know the PR address for them?! I MUST have an...

Choices ...

I'm not a very decisive person, and the more I think about decisions, the more I question them. So after announcing to my parents I was gonna get my tragus pierced, I'm now contemplating getting a different piercing ... but I don't know what.A conch?Third on the lobes?Half way?Belly?Or stick with the tragus?I really dont know. They're all ones I want in time but I've got a bit of cash to treat...

what the actual hell?!

So you really like this person right, but they tell you they want to be friends. You're gutted, and that person feels horrible and guilty and appauled that they've hurt you so badly and it makes their life hard having to drift away from you even though you agreed to still be friends. Then you get a girlfriend.Thanks. Prick.I have spent the last three weeks feeling sick to my stomach and close to...

So I'll never forget the turn of the decade (:

What was good about 2009?-My year 11 form. No different to year 10, so still totally rad (:-Owning in Netball exam despite injury.-The official last legal day I HAD to be in school. Sad, but awesome.-Finishing exams and the 6th form taster day (despite getting sunburnt).-Buying myself some Nike Morgan 6.0's. Best £50 I have ever spent, seriously.-Prom and the after party!-The annual charity...

How many drummers do you know that use 3 kick drums?

Thank you so much 2009. I've had an awesome year up until now.So far we've had Micael Jackson, Steven Gately and Patrick Swayze taken from us. And now Jimmy Sullivan. If there was one band I have loved like I've never loved anything before, it was Avenged Sevenfold and I never got a chance to see them live. It just won't be the same.He may be gone but his amazing drumming will live on in legendary...

Siblings ¬_¬

ARGH! My sister is the biggest most excruciatingly annoying person in the world! No exaggeration. She's in the shower banging the god damn shower head cos it wont stop dripping! THE HELL?! What is so wrong with leaving it for just a second and, I don't know ... ASKING FOR HELP?! And then when she doesnt get help as soon as she feels she needs it - and doesnt ask for it - she's suddenly a freaking...

Last night I lost my YM@6 live virginity (: I know the net is a BIG place, but did anyone else go see YM@6 last night in Leam?!I have to say - and not only because I was right at the front - it was the best gig I've been to, seriously. They all just commanded such a presence on stage and were so funny. I rediscovered why I love them so much last night.I met Max and Josh *dies* and OMG they are so...

NICE

I am so happy I could cry.=']NICE (not overly sure what it actually stands for) have finally granted the cancer drug, Sutent, onto my counties health service. That means that my cousin stands a chance of living even longer.He got kidney cancer and was given 1 year to live; that was in March 2007.He went on the Wolverhampton PCT drug trial, to prove it is worth the money to supply it. He would have...
