Senpai can you explain about I had no idea and I have no idea, either and neither, it confuse me a lot *sighs* thank you!
1. I had no idea. → past tense, e.g., I had no idea that yesterday was her birthday.
2. I have no idea. → present tense, e.g., I have no idea how "One Piece" is going to end.
For "either" and "neither," read this answer we gave earlier: http://ask.fm/The_YUNiversity/answer/127277521026

hello there, would you mind to explain the difference about because and because of? thank you! xx
"Because of" has to be followed by a noun or gerund:
- Because of you, I have the confidence to succeed.
- Because of her help, I can solve this difficult problem.
- Our yard is green and healthy because of the rain.
- Nan couldn't study because of Henry's snoring. (In this sentence, "snoring" is a gerund, not a verb.)
"Because" has to be followed by a verb phrase (IN CAPS):
- Because I LOVE YOU, I will do the laundry.
- Because HE HAD OVERSLEPT, Peter was late to the important meeting.
- Henry likes to try out new cafes because HE LIKES COFFEE so much.
- Because of you, I have the confidence to succeed.
- Because of her help, I can solve this difficult problem.
- Our yard is green and healthy because of the rain.
- Nan couldn't study because of Henry's snoring. (In this sentence, "snoring" is a gerund, not a verb.)

is this true that in American English there is no difference between past simple and present perfect? thanks!
No, it not true. Although American English tends to be less strict on the difference, it is tested on exams.

Is -ed can be use after using -ing? Like "being played". I don't know why that thing is on my mind lately T_T. Oh and Bigbang is back (again and again) xD
Yes, e.g., They are being punished for their crimes. (This works only with "being.")
However, there are many adjectives that end in -ed and -ing: http://bit.ly/1ALw6VR
For example, "She is feeling tired" is not the same thing as what you're asking because it's -ing + adjective (not -ed verb).

"she warned him not to be deceived with appearances. for beauty is found within" what does "for" imply here?
In that example, "for" = because, since.

1. "Have you EATEN yet?"
2. "Have you SAVED your money yet?"
