Off-Topic / Parents Won't Pay for College
« on: August 04, 2011, 04:32:00 pm »Message ID: 396619
So, my mom isn't paying for college and told the rest of the family that if any of them tried to help me, they'll basically be shunned by her. So, any idea on how I can make enough money for school?

Debate & Discuss / Debates & Religions
« on: July 22, 2011, 07:22:38 pm »Message ID: 389372
So, I noticed a trend here: whenever there's an argument, there's always someone somewhere that masks his/her standpoint behind a religious belief even though the topic isn't even relevant to that of religions. Why do people do this? It's unnecessary, and it makes people think that believers are shoving religions down their throats. It's probably why many nonbelievers have this... animosity against believers.

FusionCash / Cashout

How long can you keep the money in your account without cashing out? Will FusionCash take down any of the amounts you've earned after a certain time lapse?

Off-Topic / Men's Demands Can Sometimes... Ugh
« on: July 22, 2011, 02:26:13 pm »Message ID: 389242
A Chinese woman whose boyfriend insisted she wore her make-up like actress Jessica Alba is now planning the drastic step of changing her entire face to look like the Hollywood star.
Desperate to win back her obsessed boyfriend, who had insisted she wore a blonde wig and copy Miss Alba in every way, the 21-year-old woman is prepared to spend a fortune on the very physical make-over.
Chinese surgeons say that changing the woman's face so she ends up looking like the Fantastic Four star can be done, but it will be extremely expensive.

Desperate: Xiaoqing, 21, is preparing to undergo cosmetic surgery to look like actress Jessica Alba. She is currently a brunette (left) but wears a wig her ex-boyfriend bought her to look like Alba (right)
However they have revealed that the woman is well off and that 'money is no object as long as the end result is to turn herself into a Jessica lookalike'.
Identifying herself only as Xiaoqing, the woman told the Shanghai Daily that her 28-year-old ex-boyfriend was so obsessed with Miss Alba that he hung photos of her on the walls of his home and carried her image on his mobile phone.
'He was always telling me to do my make-up like Jessica does, even when I'm asleep,' she said.
'At Christmas time he gave me a blonde wig to wear and asked me to keep it on all the time.'


But it was that wig that was to bring about the end of their relationship.
As she walked around Shanghai wearing the wig and Miss Alba-style eye-catching make-up she noticed people staring at her and laughing. She was so upset by the public's reaction that she tore off the wig and her false eyelashes and threw them to the ground.
Reverting to her Chinese looks, her boyfriend wanted no more of her.
Now Xiaoqing has said she wants him back - and is ready to change her appearance so that she will look like Miss Alba forever.
'I love him very much,' she said of her former lover. 'That's why I always followed his opinions. I don't want to lose him.'
Liu Qi, an official at the Shanghai Time Plastic Surgery Hospital, said Xiaoqing would need eyebrow lifting, eyelid reshaping and nose reconstruction to look like Miss Alba.
'There's no worry about the expense and it is technically practicable,' said Liu.
'But the face-lift is irreversible and we hope that she would take it seriously.'
Although surgeons at the hospital said they believed money was no object, Xiaoqing told the newspaper that finding enough money for the operations would be difficult - which was why she had gone public in the hope of getting help from a plastic surgery hospital.
Doctors at the Shanghai Hospital say they will help her, but won't go ahead with the operation in a hurry.
'We want to make sure she is prepared for the risks she might face in surgery and for life afterwards, including people's attitude towards her,' said a doctor.
But Xiaoqing insists she has made her decision and is ready to go ahead with the operation.
'I'm not only doing it for my ex-boyfriend but for myself,' she said. 'I am a psychologically weak person. I want to do something to challenge myself and build a strong personality through it.'


This is absolutely horrible. A lot of men gaze into magazines and stare at these obviously airbrushed women and fantasize about them. That's normal, but it's wrong when they want their partners to be JUST LIKE those overly-dramatized women. Before commenting, PLEASE read the article first.

And in case any of the readers is wondering, in the Asian culture, it's kind of a shame to have make up on and blonde hair in public unless they have a celebrity status. It's just... a culture thing.

Payments / Question

I'm waiting until I've earned about $200 on Fusion Cash before cashing out. Is that possible? Would Fusion Cash make me have to cash out around $25 every time?

So, my fellow Harvard mates told me that there's an orientation today at 6:30 PM, but I've never been to one. What should I wear and bring? I'm so excited and nervous at the same time.
