Personally I prefer Secondary School.Mainly because as a student you can develop more of a friendship relationship with your teachers apposed to being a Primary Student. In Secondary, your considored more mature, and the teachers pay you alot more respect. You have a voice that counts alot more. Primary, was just fun school learning the basics for me, Secondary is where I found my true passions, and developed these greater relationships with teachers. My friends and I also have a relationship based on more meanings than just because. The guys are more mature... or atleast getting there, and in my school, we all pretty much get along... that is from my position. Im sure if I were to be part of a different group of friends it would all be different.The homework is more challenging and sa is the work. As a students thats usually ahead of the rest of my class (not trying to brag) its much better for me, because I can discuss iwth my teachers ways that they can give me harder work. Whereas in Primary, I doubt the teachers would give you the harder work if your requested it. I most likely wouldn't have even bothered to ask. Lessons are funner in Secondary. We have more fun. Its not a straight forward, top to bottom type of lesson, we muck around, have some laughs while doing our work (or atleast some of us do ).So in the classroom its much better.Thats what I think anyway

Could I possible be the first to say, Welcome to Xisto Theresa from Chicago!

I hope you enjoy Trap and its services- Im sure you will. Be sure to make quality posts when your in the forums because spammers aren't liked around here

How are you finding the site so far? Need any help?

Well unlike a lot of you I make my signatures on sport so here is my latest one.

Looks great! Very creative
I like to make Manipulations with horses. I think that a horse can possess so many different emotions and moods, and they can make a picture from Wow to WOOZAH! What program do you use? You can take a look at my Manipulations [here]

Very nice work!!
I love horses myself, and the top one in the river is awesome and inspiring.
Keep it up!

Thank-You for commenting
Do you own horses? I have three, two of which I ride. At the moment Im working with a 15hh Quarter Horse named Mac. He's got a gorgeous blonde mane, and at the moment his summer coat which is a deep dark chocolate. Hes awesome to ride, he's got a great canter, and he's a fantastic jumper. I haven' jumped him heaps yet, only about 80cm, but my goal is to be jumping him 1.2m - which would be awesome and the highest I've ever jumped

Dont eat anything before you go to bed. Try not eating an hour before you plan on sleeping. If your stomach is digesting food it will cause to stay awake longer.

Excersise throughout the day. A morning or afternoon run will do you good, and help you sleep better.

Read a book or magazine before you sleep. This makes me sleepy.

If your stressed you might not sleep well. So try to rid yourself of any stress. Meditation would be a great way to relax yourself- if thats your thing.

Thats all I've got

I've realised this one today... infact about two minutes ago.I hate it when your part of a Virtual World where you make graphics for people. I hate it how everytime you login there are a million messages asking for your to 'Make me a Graphic' and to 'Sell me a Graphic' espcially when you have repeatedly refused their ridiculously low offer, and they constantly message you. I hate it double time when your are trying to learning new computing languages and trying to learn to create a website while also managing school work and worrying about next years school in a different city when you completely regret wanting to go and now want to remain where you are.I hate that

Wow! Congratulations to your daughter, and to you!I love weddings they are so much fun! So long as your daughter is happy Im sure it will be fine. If your still feeling a little worried sit her down and have a chat with her. Im not too sure where any wedding dress designs would be, perhaps search for some on Google that are in your area?Congratulations once again

Have you ever thought about why you like to eat chocolate so much? Most of us would answer "because it tastes so good" but there is much more to it than that. There are some studies that show what...

gmicheal I believe a link to where your complete post is from would be http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/

Im not a chocolate addict. But I do love it. Mostly my favourites are Mars Bars, Kit Kats, Twix and small amounts of actually chocolate. I tend to find it gets too 'full on' without waffer or some sort of biscuit inside the chocolate to even it up. But with chocolate flavoured i.lkshakes, ice-creams, hot chocolates etc. Im fine and they generally aren't too rich.

Congratultions! :)I enjoy Sudukos. They are pretty fun to do when you want somthing to do, but not do too much at the same time. My friend hates them. Shes really bad at them and ends up placing random numbers in random squares

So wat ya say?? Aint it the best RTS of all time??

We have the Age of Empires I CD, aswell as Age of Empires II CD. They are pretty fun to play. I like just messing around with it and building my little Completely Symetrical Villages (I have a Perfective Compulsion to make it perfect. If its not Ill bomb it and try again ) The second is much better than the first. The graphics are way better, theres more options and features and better game playing options.

Its nice, but a little too plain. Perhaps include some images or different transaction between the text eg. Fade, Type. Also try using more creative text, personally I like the look of 3-D Text so if you can get your hands on some with a soft different coloured outline to the inner colour, that could look cool.
Maybe include an actually image of a person searching around inside the Banner, randomly climbing up walls and opening doors etc. just to follow the story a little more?
Great idea

ipod touch or clasic what should i get.

I don't own either an iPod or an iPond Touch. But from what I've seen the iPod Touch is pretty impresive. iPod still has tones of groovey features, but I'd say the iPod Touch would have even better features, plus you have extra fun because its touch screen

Has anyone else been disapointed in this seasons shows?

Im a huge Heroes Fan, I absolutley love the show, and I can proudly say Im not dissapointed at the show. At all. Changes is inevitable. The show and the characters are going to change, and grown as they use there powers- but I dont think its making them worse. Try not to think of it as changing and losing the 'Wowism' the first series had think of it more as the show developing.

I have noticed the change, ltheres somthing different about the atmosphere in Heroes, but Im more or less excited about where its going to end up. If they kept this series the same as the last people would get bored and the show would go round in circles. It needs to change to go somewhere.

 

If it doesnt start getting better I will quit watching it and find something else to fill an hour of my Monday nights.

Don't you dare quit qatching Heroes! Sylar will be after you!

I haven't actually tried Pizza Huts Bacon and Macroni Cheese Running With Scissors because Im vegetarian. But I'll take your word on it

i never succeed making this sauce lump-free

I know! Getting the Cheese sauce lump free is the hardest part- thats why I get my mum to make it

This is one of my favourite meals. It tastes great, where you cook it right, and its simple to make once you know what your doing. With my mum making the Cheese Sauce, and me preparing the Ingredients it takes about 10 minutes to prepare (Possibly 15 including cooking the pasta) and only 10-20 minutes to cook.

 

You'll Need:

1 Cup Elbow Pasta (however if you have a big dish you may want to cook more)

1 Onion

60g Butter

1-2 Teaspoons Plain Flour

300ml Milk

1 Cup Grated Cheese

Nutmeg and Pepper

1/4 Cup Breadcrumbs

1/4 Grated Cheese (Pasmasen is a must for extra flavour!)

3 Teaspoons Chopped Chives (This isn't a must but it adds flavours. You can use Herbs out of the Jar)

Preheat over to about 180 Degrees C

Begin cooking the pasta in a saucepan. To make it cook quicker boil water in the kettle and fil the saucepan with it then place on hot plate.

While pasta is cooking chop the onion in to very very small pieces. If you make the pieces too big the onion taste will overpower, and its not too nice having a huge chunk of onion in your mouth. I suggest using a Food Processor to blend it nicely.

Heat Butter over medium heat in heavy-based pan.

Once heated add the onion and stir until the onion is soft. While onion is cooking prepare the cheese sauce in a seperate saucepan.

Cheese Sauce: Melt ~60g Butter in the saucepan over low heat.

Take off the heat and add flour.

Stir to a paste like texture. Mix until there are no lumps.

Very slowly add the milk stirring continuously.

Turn up heat to medium and return pan to hot plate and continue stirring until it thickens. It can take up to 10 minutes.

Once its thick, remove from heat and sprinkle in Nutmeg and Pepper (for taste) add cheese and gently stir through.

Continue cooking onion until it turns golden then add it to the Cheese Sauce. Stir the two together.

When the pasta is tender drain it and add Cheese Sauce and Onion to the Saucepan with the pasta. Mix them through.

Spray an over-proof dish with Olive Oil and pour the Macoroni into it.

With a small bowl mix bread crumbs, chives and cheese. Alot of breadcrumbs mean it will be nice and crunchy.

Sprinkle it onto the top wiof Macoroni.

Whack it in the oven and cook until it is golden and the cheese has melted. (10-20minutes)A larger cooking dish will take longer so think about the size of your dish.

Server nice and hot.

Its unbelieveably tasty!

Enjoy!

Wow! I didn't know that! I love the meanings for these three:

Horse - stamina, mobility, strengthPegasus - carrier of lightning
Unicorn - redemption, salvation

Remember to acknowledge your source

Ooh! That looks really yum! Though I'd have to replace the bacon with somthing else as Im vegetarian. Perhaps I could do a mixture of several types of cheese for the top layer?

Anyone have any interesting/delicious chocolate recipes to share?

One I saw recently in one of our recepie books that looked interesting and pretty yum was for Chocolate Fudge. Here is the recipe:

 

Ingredients:

450g Chocolate

400g Condensed milk

50g Butter

Line the base and sides of a square cake tin with foil or baking paper.

Chop the chocolate up into small pieces

Put the chocolate, condensed milk and butter into a medium saucepan and stir them over a low het. Continue until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth.

Pour the mixture into the cake tine and smooth the surface with a spatulay or flat-bladed knife

Put the tin in the refrigerator for 3-4 hours until the fudge is firm

Take out of tin and cut into piece.

Servers about 60 pieces (depending on how yu cut them)

What's your favorite food???

My favourite food would probably have to be this delicious Vegetarian Lasagne my mother makes. It has Sun Dried Tomatos, Tomato Paste, Cheese Sauce with Nutmeg, Lentals, Carrot, Zuchini, Onion and Garlic and it tastes great!! I also like Vegetarian Pizzas and Hot Donuts

Wow! The final product is impressive! Ill definately use this on my manipulations! Thank-You!

The Dictionary Meaning of Pet

noun 1 an animal that is tamed and treated with affection, kept for companionship or amusement.

My favourite pet would be a sheep. I live on a farm, and during lambing season often we find abandond lambs that are starving from hunger. So I'll take them in for a while, look after them until they are old enough to live on their own, and then return to the mob. Even though they are returned to the mob, they always remember you a little.

 

I'm a horse rider also so I'd considor them to be my favourite pet aswell. At first I wouldn't have thought of a hors as a pet, most likely becuase I though of them previously as friends moe than pets, but after I read the dictionary meaning I'd say they are also one of my favourite pets. I keep my horses because I love them, and because they are my companions.

 

Sorry to be different

Blondes

if you're talking about the blonds has of people that blond hair i think that's very steriotipical and thats messed up. the majority of blonds that i know ae not stupid or think the worlds of themselves. they are pretty anteligent and can hold a conversation like anybody else. as a mater a fact blonds are like every other person because there are some dumb brunnets or redheads or any kind person, so it's not right to think that just beacuse someone is blond that it means they're stupid, or errogant.

 

if you say blond as of those "people" that rely on their look to get what they want then that's a different thing. i think those people needs to get a hit of reality. they need to know that they need to work as hard as everybody else to get what they want.

I agree with etycto 100% on that one. Hes got it right!

 

To the poster I say: Get your head off the pavement and get over the stereotype of Blonde being Dumb. Its not the way anymore. Perhaps 20 years ago, but the times have changed. Im a natural blonde and I've been Ducts of my Year two years in a row. Im learning Maths advanced from my class. Isn't that clear enough for you that blonde are not idiots!

is it best to spend some money on something like Dreamweaver?

At the moment Im using KompoZer which is working great for me now. I can input my own coding andinstantly see how it looks. KompoZer is a WYSIWYG HTML Editor.

In what section are you reffering to? If you selecting a package I believe you select the 'I will update my nameservers on an existing domain Or I will register a new domain' and enter your domain.. if your up to that part. Check Here and see if it answers your question.

That is amazing. I don't understand how these huge vegetables and fruits are grown!
