I'll be going to Costa Rica soon and will stay there for two weeks. What can you tell me about the food, people, security there? I heard that it is rainy season right now, is that true?
Also, I'm thinking about skydiving there but is it safe to skydive in a developing country? Thank you!!!I'm going to Costa Rica!!! Any advice on how to have the best time there?
Its nice if you can go to some beaches and you can get some surf lessons really cheap too from local people at beaches and its nice if you can check out a volcano and the cloud forest and just have fun. Below are some links that can help you do some research for planning your trip and the food here for breakfast its pretty simple but really good rice with black beans with eggs and coffee, really good and lunch and dinner is similar to other Latin foods but not spicy. The people are really nice most people here are catholic or Christians so they are pretty nice, they listen to all types of music. The part that is a little dangerous to walk alone at night is the capitol San Jose the city you don't want to walk alone in some parts of the city at night but in general its a very safe country, millions of visitors come every year and have a great time. Its a democratic country like the states and there is no military no wars no guerrillas so its a very safe place.

Unfortunately yes it is rainy season but is doesn't mean you can't have a great time. Try to do most of your activities in the morning there is less chance of rain. For example if your going to Arenal the best time to see the volcano this time of the year is early morning 6ish. On the golden coast, Guanacaste, it usually doesn't rain on the beach till well in the afternoon.And if your planning on driving take extra precautions the roads aren't like the ones here in the States.
Food is simple but good. Typical breakfast includes Pinto (rice and beans) and fried eggs.... sounds weird but its good. Costa Rica offers some of the best coffee so don't miss out and I love there natural juices... try something new like Cas, Mora or Maracuya. The Caribbean side offers a lot of tasty flavorful food even there rice and beans has a twist to it with coconut flavor and spice.
Most people are great, but remember there is a little of everything in every country. But for the most part their Pura Vida! (which means pure life, very common phrase) Depends on where you go you might find that they lack service.... I don't think they've got the costumer service part down yet.
I always feel safe in Costa Rica. But I always steer clear of downtown San Jose, especially at night. Just take the normal precaution you would take in any place.... try not to look so touristy either.
Ummm I don't know anything about the skydiving but I haven't heard of any accidents yet.
Hope you have fun and enjoy the trip!

I have sinus congestion and I have to sing in 3 hours... Any advice how to clear things up?
i agree.....steam inhalation. worked a treat for me.I have sinus congestion and I have to sing in 3 hours... Any advice how to clear things up?
Use Eucalyptus Oil in steam inhalation. Breath and inhale the aromatic flavor herbs into your lung of the oil. Mix the oil in a hot temperature water and inhale the vapor of the steam. Do it every morning and before sleep until the congestion is relief. :). You can try it before you sing 3 hours early. :).

How do you know if you are going crazy or if your depression is bad enough to seek medical advice?
First, and foremost, if you think you need help you probably do...or at least you should check it out. If the symptoms you are expressing are interfering with your daily living you probably do need help. However, don't call yourself crazy, that has a negative connotation and starts you down a wrong road from the beginning making it more difficult to begin the healing process. Thinking positive from the start is important, especially when facing depression.
You can talk to your primary care doctor if you have one -- s/he can help sort through the feelings with you and, if it is a simple case of depression, s/he can prescribe a medication, recommend a therapist or both to help you out. If you are on a campus -- go to the campus health center -- they usually have a mental health center -- and usually those records are kept separate from your general medical records. Or you could go to the local county/city mental health center or call them and ask for the intake office and set up an appointment for a screening.
Some of the major warning signs would be 5 or more of the following every day: depressed mood most of the day; marked loss of interest in most of the day's activities; sleeping to much or too little; not eating or overeating; losing -- when not dieting or gaining 5% of body weight in a month; psychomotor agitation or retardation -- i.e. restlessness or listlessness not moving around; fatigue or loss of energy; feelings of worthlessness or excessive or inappropriate guilt; diminished ability to think or concentrate or indeciveness; recurrent thoughts of death, suicidal ideation, or a suicide attempt.
The above is from the DSM-IV - Diagnostic and Statistical Manual that is used for diagnosing Mental Health Disorders.
So, think about whether or not your daily functioning is impaired and exactly whether you feel you need help -- and to be safe -- talk to someone.
Good luck!
MichelleHow do you know if you are going crazy or if your depression is bad enough to seek medical advice?
If your really depressed then you do need to see a dr. or psychiatrist. Sometimes we just get stressed out and can go crazy and thats ok. depression affects your everyday life, and you feel hopeless, worthless. You can have trouble sleeping, concentrating, and even can have thoughts of hurting yourself or others. If you have these symtoms for a month or longer than you do need to seek medical help.How do you know if you are going crazy or if your depression is bad enough to seek medical advice?
The ';depression'; that you experiencing is called life!
It doens't always go your way, it isn't all joy and happiness, it isn't always interesting...
Life is exactly what you make it.
Unless you can't eat, can't sleep, can't function at all because you are so depressed - you don't need medical advice...
You need to put some effort in.
no one who is depressed is ';going crazy';. and it doesnt matter your level of depression you always need to seek help, whether it be friends, people in the church, or professionals. you shouldnt wait until you think your depression is bad enough to seek help. anytime you feel that way you should talk to someone. even something as simple as talking can help. but my opinion would be that only you can tell how bad your depression is and you should seek help, but you should keep your friends and family around and involved because they may be the ones to get you through it
They answer that we give to all our patients is that if any condition whether it is physical or mental, causes you concern, then it is time to seek medical attention. If the depression is affecting your ability to function on a day to day basis or reaches the point of suicidal thoughts, even fleeting ones, need to be addressed.
Ask yourself this...do you still care and enjoy your daily activities and possessions? Do you feel all alone?
You can try to help yourself by writing in a journal. Some people can reflect back in it and see what might be causing the problem and others just like to vent in a journal and that helps them relax.
You can check your local hospital sometimes they offer group sessions or workshops on dealing with depression.
Make sure you eat right, get sleep, and try to get some exercise.
If that doesn't help then yes please seek medical advise.
It can't hurt you to seek medical advice. In fact, I would suggest it... if you are wondering how depressed you have to be to seek help, you are probably already depressed enough. I'd say when in doubt go see a doctor! It's always better to be safe than sorry! Good luck!
If you're asking this question, then it's time to get help. Go to a counselor. They have a way of showing you a different way of looking at a situation. No magic to it, just an experienced objective observer. Peace and revelation to you.
The barstard is that if you are together enough to ask, then you don't need help. When you slip beyond thinking if you need to ask, then it's too late.
If it interferes with your daily activity you need to seek help.
Just go seek medical advice they'll sort you out, x
Get professional help they will get to the bottom of your feelings and know what is best for you. Good Luck

Does anyone have advice on how to write a childrens book?
I have started writing a small childrens book for 4-8 year olds. It's about one characters adventures in his big house. I'm writing it in the present tense and the story really has no plot, it's just his adventures in his house from morning until he goes to bed. What other kind of advice could I get from parents of 4 to 8 year olds? thanksDoes anyone have advice on how to write a childrens book?
You should make the plot about how the character loses his favorite toy in his big house in goes in many crazy rooms and he finally finds his favorite toy in a room.
You could make the rooms; a pet room, a shirts room a pants room a swimming room a bouncy room!!
Good luck writing your bookDoes anyone have advice on how to write a childrens book?
I'm not a parent, but maybe you could throw in something that he learns? or possibly he is exploring the house, and finds new things in the rooms?
Make it not too long and use not complicated words.
Credit me as 60spaure in ur book! (just kidding)

Im 16 and i want to move to in with my mom in Texas how can I make this happen? Need expert advice?
If been living here with my dad for live 6 years now and I really want to live with my mom in Texas. Its not that I'm being abused or anything its just I love being with by mom and family in Texas than living here in WA my dad has already refused to allow me to move multiple times so I have to take legal action. What can I do?Im 16 and i want to move to in with my mom in Texas how can I make this happen? Need expert advice?
Try to get the information of your mom's lawyer and see if he/she can help you and let the court ask you where you want to live. I am sure they would think you are completely capable of deciding for yourself where you want to live. Good luck!Im 16 and i want to move to in with my mom in Texas how can I make this happen? Need expert advice?
Obviously there's a reason why your dad has primary custody. I'd need more information to give you the right advice. How about you call your mom, hint at it, and see what she thinks. If she doesn't sound optimistic about the chances of that happening, then you'll probably have to let the idea go b/c she has to be the one to fight for you to come to her, not the other way around.
Nonetheless, still try to give living w/ your Dad a chance. Sometimes finding new friends, activities, can take your mind off of whats going on @ home. Remember that you'll be 18 in two years, and can go anywhere then.
Your mom may need to file a petition to the court that she wants shared/partial custody. Hopefully they can come to an agreement - if they can't then the visitation/custody will have to be determined by a judge after they both present their cases. However, at your age they'll probably let you have a say in it. Good luck.
wow! this is exactly my husbands situation with his siblings who are triplets. they are living in washington and want to live with there mom in texas... how ironic is this.. anyways i would just talk to your dad about it, then your mom. talk like adults it will show you are old enough to make decisions
Uh, why isn't your mom handling it? She'd be in a much better position to fight a legal battle than you, a minor.
Turn it over to your mom.
You are only 2 years away to being 18. Won't that make you an adult? If so then wait 2 years then leave him. Legal action might take that long and it can be costly.
Well my parents are divorced and if your over 14 its ussually your choice. You need to make sure its OK with your mom first because that may be why hes not allowing you to move.
At age 14 you can choose who you want to live with.
relax
