Why did Sasuke want to destroy Konoha?
Why did he change his mind and join Konoha?

Sasuke wanted to destroy Konoha to get revenge for what happened to Itachi.

Sasuke hasn't necessarily joined Konoha. All we know is that he doesn't want his brother's sacrifice to be for naught.

I'm jealous. What do you do when you get jealous? >.>

It depends on what I'm jealous of. Envy isn't something I feel often, so I'm not really sure what I do. As for you, just concentrate on the good things that are going on in your life.

Do you agree with capital punishment?

Yes, I do. However, I'm not strongly in favor of it. Basically, I'm fine with executing violent criminals, but I understand why we don't need to, and I'm okay with it if we don't.

do you think your pretty good looking?

No, I'm very average looking. I'm not ugly, I'm just not particularly handsome.

Are pandas endangered?

Yes, while panda numbers have increased somewhat in the past few years, they are still considered to be endangered.

Do you pray?

No, I don't. As an atheist, I don't have anything to pray to.

 

[Ciao]

Have you ever used creatine?

Have you ever used creatine?

No, I'm not into body building.

 

[Ciao]

No, I'm not into body building.

Aw, why not?

EDIT: You do use it occasionally when your body makes it!

 

[saaaaaadpanda]

Aw, why not?

EDIT: You do use it occasionally when your body makes it!

Because I'm comfortable with my body...

Yes, that is certainly true.

 

[Ciao]

I studied about 2 hours today and Ive got a hang of what I have to test over on Tuesday. I sometimes pull a blank when I have tests. Whats the best way to avoid this?

The best way to memorize something is by repetition. You need to review the material over a greater span of time than two days before the exam. Also, it helps to see the material in different formats. Try reading, working sample problems, doing flash cards, and anything else you can think of.

Your thoughts on Barack Obama.

Why did you put like 6 a in your name?

Is the saying "there are no stupid questions" true?

 

[Voltron]

have you ever tried hacking video games?

Your thoughts on Honey Boo Boo

I think it's sad that people find that entertaining, and it's shameful that the "stars" of the show act the way they do. However, it's inconsequential in the grand scheme of things, and it will be ignored and forgotten in the near future.

Your thoughts on Barack Obama.

I think he is well intentioned, and I agree with some of the things he has done. However, he hasn't lived up to what was expected of him. Regardless, it's very difficult to judge how good a president is while they're in office. We'll have to wait a decade or more after he's out of office until we can see the real impact his policies have had.

Why did you put like 6 a in your name?

Well, in the South Park episode from which I derive my name, Sexual Harassment Panda elongates the pronunciation of "sad" when he says that something makes him a sad panda. My spelling is supposed to indicate that pronunciation. The specific number of a's is just because it looked good.

Is the saying "there are no stupid questions" true?

It's not an issue of truth so much as opinion. I think there are some stupid questions, but it isn't stupid to ask questions when you don't know something and cannot figure it out yourself with the resources available to you.

have you ever tried hacking video games?

No, I haven't.

Here are some nice questions. :heh:

• Are you proud of your current status in life?
• Did you ever get depressed?
• Which one do you prefer: Coffee or Thee
• What was your very first reaction when you noticed your thread (the old JFK) was gone (deleted) ?
• Do you believe that when friends leave, they will eventually come back later?
• How can you help someone to stop smoking (weed) ?
• How can you advise someone to do her/his best in high-school/college?


And the last question: about myself. >_<

- Due my visits and addiction on NarutoBase I missed a lot of stuff in class by not focusing.
My grades are pathetically low and I haven't toid my parents about it nor am I planning to. In fact I told them they were great and there was nothing to worry about.
My teacher and I talked today and he said (, I quote his words): "I'm afraid you can't participate with the exams this year."
In other words: I have to do a year over. :/

But that's only if I not succeed. I still (or that's what I think and told him) can held my grades up again.
By making them over since our education rule says we can make the tests twice.

I know this a stupid question and this has nothing to do with you, but do you think I can do this?
That I can succeed? >_<

I already became less active as before on the base, but didn't change anything at all.
I made my English test a week ago and I'm shocked about the result and jealous about the other results. :/

I also don't feel like studying.. How can I change that? 'Cause I need to.

Thank you for your time! ^_^

EDITED:

I don't think that was actually a final question, after reading what I wrote. xD
I asked too much questions. :x

Damn, I aplogize. ​

Yes, I'm proud of my academic achievements and where I'm going in life. I'll be the first member of my family to get a PhD, which is kind of a big deal.

Yes, but never for very long.

I assume you meant "tea", not the "thee". I prefer tea, but I also prefer "thee" because I don't like coffee.

I felt sadness, and shortly after I felt relieved. The month I had off was a nice break.

I feel that they can and often do. However, I know fr experience that they sometimes do not.

You need to provide alternative means for whatever they are trying to accomplish by smoking. It also helps to provide positive stimuli when they don't smoke as well as negative stimuli when they do. Basically figure out what's going to work for operant conditioning of the individual in question.

Most people are capable of doing well in school. The thing that prevents it is a lack of motivation. People need to find a reason to care about school, which will motivate them to do well. For me, I like the sense of achievement, I enjoy learning new things for the sake of learning, and I know I need to do well to attain my desired career. Another person will likely have completely diffent motivators.

Well, to be honest it seems like you're in a pretty rough spot. If you try hard enough you can probably scrape by, but I don't know you well enough to know your academic prowess. Just try your hardest and stay off the base until your tests are done.

As to getting up the motivation to study, you should already have it. You don't want to repeat a year of school, and you don't want to disappoint your parents. You can try to make your studying more fun by doing it in different places (like the library, the park, or a coffee shop), creating mini rewards (like candy), and varying the kind of studying you do (flash cards, reading, problems, etc.).

Hope that helps, and best of luck to you!
