From a surgical nurse and certified CPR teacher:
Please pause for 2 minutes and read this:
1. Let’s say it’s 7.25pm and you’re going home (alone of course) after an unusually hard day on the job.
2. You’re really tired, upset and frustrated.
3 Suddenly you start experiencing severe pain in your chest that starts to drag out into your arm and up in to your jaw. You are only about five km from the hospital nearest your home.
4. Unfortunately you don’t know if you’ll be able to make it that far.
5. You have been trained in CPR, but the guy who taught the course did not tell you how to perform it on yourself.
6. HOW TO SURVIVE A HEART ATTACK WHEN ALONE? Since many people are alone when they suffer a heart attack without help, the person whose heart is beating improperly and who begins to feel faint, has only about 10 seconds left before losing consciousness.
7. However, these victims can help themselves by coughing repeatedly and very vigorously. A deep breath should be taken before each cough, and the cough must be deep and prolonged, as when producing sputum from deep inside the chest. A breath and a cough must be repeated about every two seconds without let-up until help arrives, or until the heart is felt to be beating normally again.
8. Deep breaths get oxygen into the lungs and coughing movements squeeze the heart and keep the blood circulating. The squeezing pressure on the heart also helps it regain normal rhythm. In this way, heart attack victims can get to a hospital.
9. Tell as many other people as possible about this. It could save their lives!!
10. A cardiologist says If everyone who gets this mail kindly sends it to 10 people, you can bet that we’ll save at least one life.
11. Rather than sending jokes, please... contribute by forwarding this mail which can save a person’s life.
12. If this message comes around you... more than once… please don’t get irritated... You should instead, be happy that you have many friends who care about you & keeps reminding you how to deal with a Heart attack.
please take the time and boost this post by reposting it and sending it to those you love because we all need to understand how to quickly deal with heart attacks

So, I was reading this story and I two interesting ships. I’m wondering what’s your honest thoughts on them?
Chad and Ginny Gothel
Shang jr and Jordan
Not something I would have thought of, I can see Shang Jr and Jordan together, they would be good couple, Chad and Ginny sound interesting, I can’t really see them together unless it is written well. What is the story called?
There are lots of gangs on the Isle, both made up of VKs and Adults. Some gangs are simply groups of people who have joined together in an effort to survive, they try to stay out of the politics and schemes of the isle, they might claim a small amount of territory, but it is usually on a couple of streets or buildings. Out of all of the gangs made up of the VKs there are 32, who have made it to the top of the pile. These gangs all control bigger territory and have more power. They got to the top by being the most ruthless and not being scared of anything, always taking the risks and grabbing for as much as they could, some of these gangs have the backing of their parents, but some didn't, the ones that didn't are the most feared, that isn't to say the ones that had backing aren't though.
All the gangs are likely to clash with each other, this leads to infighting, gang wars and turf wars. It is whispered in dark corners of loud buildings that the leaders are like warlords. The gangs aren't always fighting, there are alliances, fragile and dangerous as they may be.
It is a rare day on the Isle when there isn't fighting, but on certain occasions there will be cease fires, such as on Samhain and Initiation, there are also certain places that are considered neutral, like the town square and Curl Up and Dye.

These are the gangs that have been acknowledged by the other VKs and have spots in the GC, sometimes other groups will pop up, but they don’t tend to last long. The Leaders are the people who lead their gang, then the second is like the next in charge, sort of like a right-hand man. Some gangs also have stipulations for joining, (I’ll make separate posts about each of the gangs later.
All the VKs speak multiple languages due to the fact that the Isle is a cultural melting pot, because even villains care about their culture. Most people speak 3-4 languages fluently, it is one of the advantages the VKs have over the AKs.
Everyone knows at least 2 languages fluently.
Everyone knows random words and phrases from languages they don't speak.
The most common languages are English, French, Chinese, German and Arabic
The least common are Faire Speak, Latin, Greek and Atlantican due to the lack of speakers on the Isle.
The Pirates know the most languages out of everyone because their parents wanted them to be able to travel anywhere. They also know Atlantican, Greek, Latin and Faire Speak because Uma, her cousins/siblings and the Hook Siblings taught them.
Freddie and Celia speak French and Creole
Most VK’s just speak their parent’s language as a first language
