Would it be a bad idea to take 3 languages at one time?

Too much tense and grammar junk to learn at the same time without getting them mixed up, I'd say.

Calidus refers primarily to temperature, not physical attractiveness. :p

Oh cool, people are voting.

<i> Why do people want Amar'e so badly? </i>
<i> Come guys, Javale Mcgee has way more joke potential. </i>
It's all good, we'll get through all of them eventually. Even Joakim Noah.
<I> A) Amar'e Stoudemire </i>
...Starting power forward of the New York Knicks, Amar'e Stoudemire! The past season was rough for him, but you believe that you can help him take his game to the next level.
After your fiasco with The Admiral, you decide to take the next two weeks to watch the Olympics, relax, and fast. You get a few angry texts from Robinson, but hey, David's called you worse.
It's the morning after the closing ceremony, and today is your first workout with Hakeem. You get dressed, put a bag of basketballs in your car, and head over to the gym. You're a few minutes early, so you decide to shoot around (blindfolded) while you wait for Amar'e to arrive.
After twenty minutes, he finally comes. "Sorry I'm late, sir," Amar'e says. "I'm working on my next book, 'STAT: Away Court.'"
You take off your blindfold. "That's good, Amar'e. It's always important to have a life outside of basketball. Now, let's warm up--"
"Twelve-year old Amar'e Stoudemire is the man. He has it all: the money, the cars, the girls. He goes hard in the paint and he dunks on all of his tests. But when a group--"
"Amar'e, how about we talk about your next book after we're done training?"
"You're right, sir. How rude of me." Amar'e puts down his backpack and cellphone, grabs a ball, and bricks a long 3.
"Can we work on three-point shooting?"
"Three-point shooting is very important, Amar'e, but for now, let's focus on your post moves. You're a very potent offensive player, but my goal is to help you improve in all aspects of the game."
"Wanna have a dunk contest instead? Like that McDonald's commercial--"
"First things first. Post moves."
You spend the next two hours working with Amar'e on his post moves. At first, he's noticeably disappointed that you didn't agree to his dunk contest, but after awhile, he starts getting the hang of the new techniques you're teaching him.
"Great spin, Amar'e!" You say, giving him a high-five.
"So can we have that dunk contest now?" Amar'e says, smiling.
"You're already a very good dunker, Amar'e. Now that you've gotten the hang of the post game a little bit, before we call it a day, I think we should work on your defense a little--"
"Nah, man." Amar'e says as he drops the ball and takes a step back. "I didn't come here for that. No, sir. That ain't my game."
"It won't be that hard--"
"Defense isn't my thing, man!" Amar'e says as he kicks the ball and goes to sit on the nearest bleacher. "You know that. Nobody ever taught me, man. Nobody."
"Exactly, and now I'm going to teach you. Trust me, you'll be a great defender in no time." You go over to Amar'e and give him a pat on the back. He puts his head in his hands.
"It's...it's not that simple."
"Why? I believe in you. Why won't you believe in yourself?"
After a few seconds, Amar'e--in tears--looks at you. "Nobody taught me how to learn it, man! Nobody ever taught me how to learn defense!" Amar'e sobs.
"What?"
"Why did you have to remind me, man? I didn't even do anything to you! I came here to play basketball, not defense!"
"Defense--"
"I need to punch something. Something. Anything." Amar'e gets up and slowly walks to your framed jersey.
"Amar'e, punching glass--"
"Glass...If I have glass in my hand, I don't have to play defense--"
"Amar'e--"
Amar'e starts to run towards the jersey. "DEATH TO DEFENSE!"
"Amar'e, noooooooooooo!" You get up to run after him, but you're too late. You look away as you hear his fist hit the glass. You look back, and Amar'e is staring at his bleeding hand.
"You idiot!" You yell. "There was a fire extinguisher right next to it! How come you couldn't punch that instead of my jersey?"
"...Does this mean I don't have to play defense?"
Does it?
A) Apply first aid to Amar'e's hand and teach him how to learn defense B) Call an ambulance, call it a day, and try to work with him again tomorrow C) Call an ambulance, call it a day, and train with someone different tomorrow (Specify who) D) Other

I know, I googled Ramadan before I started this CYOA And since it's too long, can you just put the last 1000 characters in a second post? I hate to ask someone to double post, but everyone does it in cyoas

Thanks for keeping this alive. Maybe I'll start a CYOA on this board the next time I get bored.
I'll be busy all day tomorrow, but I'll have time on Monday around noon to continue this.
