My mind wanders too much! help?
MiB.. That's what happens to even the best of students from time to time.. It's difficult to be a student.. to study every single day during exams.. to remain focused.. to make yourself want to study each single day.. Things that help: 1. Eat foods that are good for concentration and your mind in general - kiwis, fish with omega 3 (tuna, salmon), no fast food, not too sugary things (help for 30 minutes and then you're down again), search a healthy snack (I have once read that crunchy things help you concentrate as well, like apples, carrots..), nuts, ... 2. have enough rest at night!!! Normally, we need 8 hours a night, never go below 6 hours if you have to study/ work on assignments all day 3. look for something that relaxes you, it could be tea, reading a book, taking a bath/ a shower.. Do that when you feel you can't concentrate.. 4. Exercise each day! even if it's just for 30 minutes, go for a run.. whatever you like to do.. 5. take "smart" breaks.. meaning 10 minutes after 1 hour of studying.. and a real break that relaxes you.. no, not Y!A ;) because once you sign in.. you KEEP signed in, lol :D I usually put my iPod in and lay down in my bed.. with my eyes closed.. :) 6. Look for things to make you look forward to.. meet friends, go for a drink when you've deserved it.. 7. make time tables, a calender for a month and stick up to it! Hang it in your room to remind you of your tasks! Use small notes as well.. 8. Look up for some motivational quotes and hang them in your room.. whenever you feel like not studying get up and read some quotes.. to inspire you.. 9. Think about how privileged you are to study! Don't waste it.. and think about your goal and dreams.. how bad you want to get your diploma.. and believe in yourself! 10. Keep your desk tidy.. and get rid of the things that distract you!! 11. If NOTHING helped, you need a change of environment.. go to another room and study there.. I have just discovered a good study room for me.. it's across our library and a lot of students go there.. it keeps me motivated, seeing others study as well.. :) I hope it helped somewhat and good luck! ;)

He blame me for giving him stress because now i m pregnant I don t wanna get abortion. But i myself got financial issue, and probably my family won t accept this as well because my dad just recently passed away 6 months ago. But I just don t know who to ask for help. Nobody is supporting me and ask for abortion...
I want to apply for my 13 year old brother's US visa?
As a foreigner yourself in the United States, you cannot petition for your brother's immigration. He could go to school in the U.S., and for that he would need a student visa, the F-1. However, he can only attend a public school for up to 1 year total, and even that will cost him about $11,000 per year. He then would have to attend a private school, which will cost at least $15,000 per year, and he will have to prove that he has the money to pay for it when applying for the visa at the U.S. consulate in Saudi Arabia. As aforementioned, once you naturalize as a U.S. citizen, you would not only lose your Saudi Arabia citizenship, but "exercising" (whatever the Saudis think that entails) another citizenship is a very serious crime for any citizen of Saudi Arabia. I don't have to tell you what they do to women who disobey the world of Allah. My guess is that you will therefore rather continue to live with a Green Card in the United States.
