Okay, I'm a sophomore in high school and I do a lot of community service, such as playing music at nursing homes every month and volunteering around my hebrew school. But how am I supposed to be keeping track of this? I'm recording all the hours I spend in a notebook, but do I need "proof" of sorts for when I put it on a college application?
Thanks :)

You need to have the moderator of the activity sign and date next to the description of the service. It also helps to catagorize the service. Like School, Community, Church etc.

ive had brown discharge the last few days. its really thick and has a normal smell. anyone know what this is? im too young to go to a gynocologist. (link)
|
Have you started menstrating yet?
If not, sometimes right before a girl has her period her internal muchus is discolored. Also, if you have been fingered (sorry to be blunt) that could also cause your discharge to be discolored.
Oh, and by the way, you're never too young to see a gynocologist.

my husband (35) & i (34) have 2 sons. we talked about trying to get pregnant in the fall or early spring. well, i just found out that we're pregnant and it's a little earlier than we planned, but i'm ecstatic. well my husband is not so ecstatic. he asked me to consider POSTPONING the pregnancy; i'm outraged. i don't judge people who have abortions, but that's not even an option for me. we're both employed with good jobs & together we earn over $100,000 (i know that's not rich, but we do ok). he fears that our quality of life will change. we are at an impasse! HELP! (link)
| |
I suggest making your husband see this choice in a whole new light. Take a picture of your two sons, and place them in front of your husband. Ask him which of their lives you should postpone. Tell him that if you can't have three children you'd rather have this baby and loose some old baggage. When he becomes outraged you can use that as leverage explaining to him that taking the life of your unborn child would be no different than putting a gun to the temple of one of your two sons. Hopefully he'll see your side of things.

I'm 13 and I live in HK. My school doesn't let us have bangs and we have to get rid of it before Monday, but the problem is, without bangs I look really bad, and I love my side swept bangs now. So I was thinking, should i get the full on bangs? But the problem is, it causes zits and pimples on my forehead. Is there any other options or is there a way to reduce the zits? Or should I just clip it up and when she's gone let it down? (risky though. she is NOT the kind of teacher you mess with :S) (link)
|
Ok, heres a trick to keep the look of bangs awith out actually having them. Part your hair dramatically on one side the bulk moving across your forehead, make sure it lays smoothly, without being plastered down. Fix it in place with a couple of bobbypins on he opposite side than the part. It'll look sort of like side swept bangs but it won't get in your face, or get you in trouble.

Help would be greatly appreeshated.

Wow, I'd like to ask if you've been on any strong medications lately? What kind of 15 year old girl wants to have a baby unless you're trying to milk the welfare system? Honestly, think about what you're saying. You can't drive yet. You can't legally own a house or even adopt a dog. Just because you're body is mature enough to have a child doesn't mean this is the right stage in your life to do so. You have plenty of time to grow up, get an education, find a job, and a man who'll stick around and be a father. People have babies in their early 40s! Wait until you have the means to give a child the life they deserve, not one of moving from crappy apartment to crappy apartment never knowing if you can afford food and clothing, while always regretting having a child before you finished highschool.

Ok so me and my bf of 4months had our first fight a few days ago and part of it was about me not talking to his friends when we're hanging out with them. Im really shy and i just find it hard to talk to people i dont know that well. So if i dont talk to his friends they end up thinking i hate them but i dont. it just takes me a while to open up to people. So my question is how do i start conversations with these people and get to know them better, like join in conversations when i dont know what or who their talking about.
I just dont know what to say to them.
Love, Jess (link)

There are two approaches that I would take;
1) Talk to your boyfriend about his closest friends, fund out if theres anything such as a certain sport, video game, book, or something that plays a big role in thier life. Then ask them about this thing. They'll open up to you, which will make you more comfortable, and you'll most likely be able to engage in further conversation because you no longer feel like an outsider.I t'll make them think you're paying attention atleast, and it will make your boyfriend feel like you're taking an intrest in his life.
2) Just talk. Who cares about what? Just open up and say whats on your mind. Even if its something totally random. "Wow. The sky looks so blue today." "Oh Andy, I love the color of your shirt." Just any old thing.

so i have an awful relationship with my dad, like the worst .. we dont talk he says im a disappointment, my parents are divorced. my priest has become like my dad .. he is my best friend i talk to him about anything he is like a dad to me. i wanna get him a little something to show him i care but idk what. nothing like religious cause he prob has tons of stuff like that, but something special and personal. any ideas? (link)
|
Is there anything you and this priest have in common? Like a favorite sport of movie?
I'm also very close to my Priest and I know that he played volleyball in college, and I captain a Nationally ranked volleyball team...so as I thank you for being such a big part of my life I saved up and got us tickets to an AVP Tournament in Chicago. He really loved it, and it helped us to bond even further.
Finding something like that you can share with him will allow you to express your thanks and to further deepen your bond.
Hope I helped.

Is it right to ask your friend if they like you more than a friend? How will you do it? or should you wait for more signs?
I like her too but I dont want to look like a fool, when I ask. (link)
|
Oh, this is quite the tricky one. Its hard falling for a friend and not knowing how to figure out how they feel. I agree with ComplexMind on the fact that you shouldn't come out and outwardly tell the girl you like her. Try something subtle. Flirtation might not always be enough though, I hang around with LOADS of guys, more guys than girls, and I use the fact that I'm female to get my way with them all the time; does it mean I like them? Of course not. So you're going to have to hint a little stronger than just lite flirtation. Have you ever read the book "I Can't Tell You" and no, thats not me being idiotic and saying I can't tell you the name of this book, but thats actually what the piece is called. But anyways, its about this boy who decides to stop talking and turns to writting notes. During the story he falls for his good girl friend and is too afraid to tell her, and she starts to date another guy. When he finally gets up the courage to let her know how he feels she says she returns the feelings but that shes happy in the relationship with the other guy...its really saddening. A cool thing you could do to hint at this friend is to pick up this book, read it yourself (its a REALLY good read), and then pass it onto her. When doing so add that the story reminds you of your relationship, just offhandishly remark this before she starts reading. Perhaps she'll pick up on the clue.
And yes, I've used that. I've given the book to a good male friend. He ended up returning the feelings. Did we date? No because we decided we were too good of friends, best friends actually, but for about six months it was just like dating but without calling it such. It was fantastic.
If you don't want to take a route similar to this one. I'd suggest having another friend offhandishly question her about it. "Hey, I noticed you and so-and-so are getting pretty tight. You two have a thing or something?" She'll probably chuckle and wave it away, but if you're in close proximity when it happens and you look at her face, I guarantee you'll be able to know how she really feels. Theres always a glimpse of a woman's inner self right before she slaps on her poker face.
Good luck, and hope I helped.

it dosent say. how often to use it (link)
| |
Use them two to three times a week, because if you do it too often it will remove to much skin and make your hands raw.
|
|
how do i use them ? and how often do i use them? (link)
|
Read the directions, because different brands are slightly different.

My boyfriend's spending the night for the first time saturday, and i was wondering if there is anything special i could do for him? I'm already giving him our first bj (tips for this as well would be very much appreciated), but is there anything else i coudl do to make it more pleasurable or comfortable? (link)
|
Not everything you do for him should be sexual. Let him know how much you care by cooking him dinner, and I don't mean out of a box. Even if its not the best food ever it'll mean so much more if he knows you put the time and effort into finding out what he likes and fixing it.

so i'm only 15, and i've been dating my boyfriend for like 5 months, and i have never felt this way about anyone before. i feel like i am in love with him! we always tell eathother how much we love eachother, and we both wanna be together for the rest of our lives! he has changed my life soo much and all in good ways, and when hes with me hes a much better person, i make him a better person. he makes me feel so happy, and when i'm not with him, i miss terribly!! i can't live without him. for about a month we took a break cause we felt like we were becomming too close, but it was too hard for us. we can't be apart. do you think thats its crazy for me to be in love? cause i really think i'm in love with him! (link)
|
Its not crazy to feel this way about someone, its easy to find yourself loving someone and becoming hopelessly devoted to them. But there is a difference between "loving" and "in love." Don't let yourself become too dependent on this relationship, don't blow off your friends for him or before you know it he'll be all you have. You're 15, don't plan on him being the person you're with forever. ETC.

my boyfriend cheated on me 4 months ago. he had sex with another woman. i am still with him. but every time i think about him and her together, i let a few tears out, still. it hurts more than anything. i can see them holding hands on the way up his stairs to have sex. and i cant get it out of my mind. i hate him for all the awkward situations we are put in when someone mentions her name. and his best female friend is best friends with her. i hate him for it. i cant help but think, why wasnt i good enough? what do i keep doing wrong? why do boys cheat on me? what is wrong with me? and i feel like he doesnt even care. i never let him see me cry, i dont want him to know how much he really means to me, because what if he doesnt feel the same...
why can i not be good enough for anyone?
so my question is, how can i get past this?
right now i feel like the only way to forget about the whole thing is to forget about him..
and i dont want to. (link)
|
First of all, there is absolutely nothing wrong with you. People, not just men, cheat for more reasons than being unhappy with a relationship. Often times if a relationship is getting to serious someone will cheat out of fear. They get scared and go crazy.
Also, not telling him how you feel is a mistake. I know that is harsh, but its true. You can't be in a relationship and be dishonest. Maybe he didn't think cheating was such a big deal because he doesn't think you care about him? I'm not trying to blame you for him doing that, for it was immature and horrible, but not expressing your feelings to him might be an underlying cause.
You need to tell him how you feel and find out if he returns those feelings, only then can you decide what to do. Let him know how much cheating on you hurt. Let him see your tears. Hopefully he'll buck up and be the beau you deserve. If not, then you need to get out of the relationship. Because its not fair for you to be so stressed out over it.
I hope I helped.

today at a friends we were riding around on a golf cart when it got out of control and slammed into a tree. my left leg got a little beat up from the crash (i was sitting passenger) my leg just got skinned in about 3 places but on my knee it was a little worse. i don't think i broke or dislocated anything, it's just a LITTLE sore and i have a knot on the side of my knee. should i be okay if i just ice and clean the cuts?
thanks! (link)
|
I'm positive you'd know if it is broken, or if you hurt anything seriously. But I would suggest doing some simple exercises to get a better idea of how bad the damage is. Then use hydrogen proxide or some other form of disinfectant on the cuts for a few days to prevent infections. Try to avoid wearing pants or the material might stick to the wounds and that is EXTREMELY painful. When showering dab the cuts with hot water and soap, do not rub, for this will keep them from scabbing which will cause it to scar.
Hope I helped.

any cute outfits for back to school shopping?
links?
please actual outfits
not store websites!! (link)
|
Ohhhh. This question is SUPER FUN.
I'd love to help you find cute outfits for school, since I go to a private school and we have to wear uniforms. If you go to my forum and tell me what sort of style you're looking for so I can get a better feel of what you want I'll spend a little time putting together some basic outfits and some accessory ideas!

i have very strong legs and there is some fat on them...i would like them to look more lean. any tips for working hard to get lean legs??? (link)
|
Like she said, weight training is very benefical. But if you don't have a gym membership here is something you can do at home.
Either use dumbells, about 15 pounds, or find something you can hold about that weight. Then find a chair or stool or basically anything you can sit on that is about 15 inches off the ground. Stand infront of the chair and do squats. Stand with your feet a shoulders width apart, and while holding the weights bend your knees until your butt touches the chair. DO NOT SIT ALL THE WAY. The chair is just a guide as to wear to lean.
Another thing you can do is wall sits. Sit up against the wall, your legs creating a 90 degree angle, and put your hands behind your head. Hold this postion for ATLEAST 45 seconds.
Also "bike rider" sit ups and "moutain climbers" will help with your thighs and lower abs.
And if you want your calfs to look nice, do stair steppers.
Hope I helped.

hi i am 13/f
okay i have a couple of questions
well one is i am going to this family party, that has alot of people i dont see that often. and i really really am trying to think of a cute but not to sufisticated hair style. I have hair that is about 1-3 inches below my shoulder. Any ideas?
and the other question is if you could somehow lighten dark brunette hair a little without dying it?
thanks (link)
|
Have you considered a chunky bang? Or perhaps a piecy front layers that frame your face?
And an easy way to lighten your hair without coloring it is taking lemon juice or vinager and running it through you hair. Then go out in the sun, or blow dry your hair. It will take a couple applications to lighten it a shade, but if you just want a little shine this is a great treatment. Just make sure to wash it out of your hair!
Hope I helped.

i have servere dry lips what can i do?ive tried chapstick vaseline neosporin everything possible what can help? also i tried that toothbrush thing where you scrub your lips nothing has helped please help me !! thanks (link)

The other two have given you lots of great advice, which I don't need to repeat, but;
I had skin cancer when I was younger and spend alot of time at the dermatologist. A few months ago he had me start using this face cream that drys out your acne, but along with deminishing blemishes it dryed out my lips! Cracking and bleeding didn't look very good with my new clear skin, so I asked him what I could do. Along with the things you've already been told he incouraged me to drink an 8 ounce glass of cranberry juice a day. I'm not excactly sure what in the juice helps your lips regenerate tissue, but I trust this man. Also vitamin e helps to mosturize skin, lips, etc. You can get vitamin e tablets in the vitamin eisle at your local grocery store. And its really inexpensive.
Hope I helped.

anyone have any really good myspace backgounds....i dont like those bland boring ones that just have poka dots or lines and patterns on them...also i dont want like a boyish one, or like too cutsy, hah its really hard to find one i like pleasseee help (link)
|
Why not try making your own layout/background? Its super fun and really easy, plus you have a myspace layout that all your friends will envy since is personalized.
Go to Goodsearch.com (since its better than google, just kidding) and research myspace layout generators. They will ask you for a url for an image. Just paste the url from photobucket or tinypic etc that you wish to be your background.
A super cool thing to do is to use a paint of photo editing program to personalize an image. Take the image you want and copy it into this program. Then put your myspace friend ID on it like "/1294" or whatever or maybe your name, or a quote you like. It looks really neat and no one else will be able to use this image. Then upload that image to photobucket or whatever. Then paste it into the url image section of the layout generator. Botta-bing-botta-boom custom layout!
I hope this helped.
