Everyone I know thinks I'm a girly, self involved, boy crazed, dumb, 'pretty' girl. It bugs me, but it's sorta my fault. I get honors at school, everyone thinks I'm failing, I love reading comic books and actual books of course I love Stephen King, Stieg Larsson, Jane Austen, and gaming out, drawing watching Star Trek, Dr.Who, Battlestar Galactica, I watch Firefly even though it didn't make it very far :p, When I'm out of highschool [I'm in grade 9] I want to be an engineer for a university.
I have nothing in common with any of my 'friends', I think I'm going to start a fresh slate as me in a new school next semester, I don't know if it's a good idea, but I think I need to show who I am. What would you do? :) Thank-You.|||**** everyone. live your life the way you want. you seem like a great person. keep reading stephen king|||What I would do is come clean to my friends. Tell them who the real me is. If they're real friends they'll accept you for you. If they don't or if you don't want to hang out with them anymore, make new friends with people who have the same interests as you.|||You should never be a shame of who you are.Be your self and let your friend no that you are smart.If they have a problem with that. then they was never your friend and the first place.|||Not everyone's thinking that way. I'm sure your classmates know, and that means, your friends should know too.
No one really talks about grade sin hgih school, just college..|||That's because children are lacking in knowledge and are cruel.
Adults love children so never feel alone.

What would be a written analysis to my poem? please refer to poetic devices..?
I am lonesome of plenty
Small limbs of a broken tree
Always looking to the ones above
For conduction,strength and safety.
One little limb trying
To keep the others from breaking away
Who will fall?
And who will stay?
Now I stand by myself
Looking at the earth through the rain
And I see the broken branches I knew
stray about me in pain.
We always found the way to hide the hurtful mistakes with some super sticker.
And some how ultimately the glue could hold no more.
There are these who have taken an axe
To the root of our very basis
And who have passed this demolition
Down to each recent generation.
If I could pick this axe
I would throw it deep into the lake
Never to come back again
To injure the generations that follow me.
How am I going to care for myself?
I can't even say, 'I've still got my healthiness!'
For too many years, I would sit lonely and weep.
Please Lord I need to know just, how am I?
I am one of many
But I know my life is different
And I know I can't turn back.
But alone I will go
And plant the new seeds
Where a beautiful tree will grow.
i wrote this poem to the book "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" from Stieg Larsson..it should represent the feelings and different phases from Harriet Vanger..and the Vanger Clan in general
what would be a written analysis to my poem?
Thanks in advance

Is the new Millennium movie too disturbing for a 14 year old?
I've read the Millennium trilogy (Stieg Larsson) and I thoroughly enjoyed them, so I'm considering watching the film adaption of it, but is it too disturbing for a 14 year old?
The books (Dragon Tattoo) made me feel a bit queasy at certain scenes, but they didn't bother me too much.
Last time I watched 'The Lovely Bones' I couldn't go to sleep for 4 weeks so...if the violence in the Girl With the Dragon Tattoo movie goes beyond
it, I'll pass.|||If the new David Fincher adaptation is as graphic as the one that was done in Swedish by Niels Arden Oplev I would think that it would be too disturbing for a 14 year old. The Swedish one had a couple of graphic rape scenes, a not so graphic sexual assault scene and a sex scene and a lot of nudity and language. I am used to seeing a lot of disturbing material, but that one was one of the most disturbing things I had ever seen in a movie. I do not know if the American version by Fincher will be as blatant with the rape scenes since I haven't seen it but you might not want to watch it since I think it will definately be more graphic than The Lovely Bones.

I have no idea what this book is!?
Okay, I do have to thank "Cabin fever" for their suggestion of Ink Exchange by Melissa Marr and "Soup" for their suggestion of 'The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo' by Stieg Larsson. Neither book is it though.
Here is the book again: The cover there is this girl...And she has this like dragon fly or something tattooed on her back. The book is about a guy who's a writer and he meets this girl and its like...A horrorish story. The cover looks more drawn and the girls face is faceing the towards you. The whole back as a tatoo I think and she looks more dirtyish. I'll keep updateing to let you guys know what books its not.|||Here's a list of possible answers...
Don't Die, Dragonfly - Linda Joy Singleton
The Black Tattoo - Sam Enthoven
Tattoo - Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Fate - Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Radiant Shadows - Melissa Marr|||What is your question?

The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo English Movie?
Does anyone know if there are plans to make a movie in English about the book, The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson?
I know there's a Swedish version but i'm after and English version|||No, but Hollywood is definitely interested. There reportedly has been discussions with whoever owns the rights in Sweden about doing an American adaptation. George Clooney, Johnny Depp, and Brad Pitt are all said to be interested in playing Blomqvist.|||Guys the girl with dragon tattoo is real hot....check her blog at http://noomirapace.blogspot.com/

Millenium Series... Not printed properly ?
Hi everyone...
I've been reading the millenium series by Stieg Larsson ( the girl who played with fire to be exact) and just bought this book from Chapters Indigo in Canada and threw the bill in the trash, never thinking I'd get this problem...
Heres the deal... I was reading the book and I'm at 100 pages from the end and all the action is starting... I finish one page only to realize the next page doesn't follow the previous... There's 50 pages missing, and it seems like when they printed the book they put in the last chapters twice!
I don't have the bill and the book is now obviously worn ( paperback)... Do you think the bookstore will exchange it anyway??|||The issue isn't going to be that the book is worn - it is clearly not fit for the purpose for which it was sold and never was.
The problem is going to be whether you can convince the book store you bought it from them, and without the receipt that is going to be very difficult. I don't suppose you paid for the book with anything that is traceable, ie credit or debit card? If you did, then the fact that a transaction took place can be traced, (even if it cannot be tied to this particular book) which may make them more sympathetic.
My feeling is that you might have to chalk this one up to experience. Next time keep the bill (I use it as a bookmark) until you have read the book.
Best wishes

How to play subtitles on xbox while watching movies from USB.?
have the Stieg Larsson's Dragon Tattoo Trilogy and I have put it on my USB. Its simpler to watch this way, no having to swap dvds, take out games, or need to take care of the DVD.
The DVD and my file on the USB include, Swedish audio track, English audio track and English subtitles.
I can get it to play on the xbox however, it automatically chooses the English dubs and won't let me switch.
VLC: I can choose any format I want. Only in Swedish, Swedish with English subs, English, and English with subtitles.
Windows media player / center: Only plays English dubbed.
Xbox 360 4gb Only plays English dubbed.|||If your Windows media play will only play the English version then the same will apply for the Xbox as that is what it uses to run video/audio media. It's a long shot, but if you wanted to try it you could go into the file you have the movie stored under and find the audio tracks, delete the ones you don't want and see if that will force it to play a certain one. I'm not familiar with the movie, but if it is foreign, and not made for American disc players the codes won't read the same thus limiting your options.
