I Googled it, yet I can't find who did the original song! The only lyrics that popped up were the Marilyn Manson lyrics, and I honestly don't think he originally did the song....or did he?
Who originally did the song "Sweet Dreams"?
"Sweet dreams are made of these....who am I to disagree? Travel the world and the seven seas...everybody's searching for something..." (link)

"Sweet Dreams" by Eurythmics (originally.)

My ex boyfriend and I dated 3 years on and off and 6 months steady. I broke up with him about 4 months ago. I can't seem to get over him. In this case its harder because our parents are best friends and we see each other all the time. At school, he comes over, I go there. For me its harder than usual. How can I get over him. Please don't say stay away from him because thats not an option. Any and everything will help.
Mac
PS. I had very good reasons for breaking up with him. (link)
| |
I think all girls go through this with an ex, that they're around very often. At least for awhile. I recommend, everytime you get those thoughts about him, think about all of the reasons that you are broke up now. Why you two are broke up, and that should definitely help you. And being as they were "very good reasons." You should probably thank yourself for breaking up with him, because many girls do not have the strength to do break up with their guy, even when they need to the most.

I'm pretty good at volleyball (well better than alot of people.. not to brag.. but I've always liked the sport, and I even played it in the summer, at like some good rec place.). however in soccer, i have been playing for like 3 seasons, and im not the best player.. like I dont know all those tricks and junk, but I'm determined.. yet lack alot of skills, lol. I'm a 7th grade girl, and I'm going to high school soon.. and Im wondering which do I pick? because the soccer and volleyball seasons are both in the fall... that sucks because I love both, but soccer better.. but im not that good at it! what to pick! .. I wish I started soccer earlier :/ (link)
| |
I think you should chose the sport that you enjoy the most. Being as you said Soccer, I would go with that. You have some time to get better at the sport, and learn more about it. Between 7th and 9th grade. So I would work hard with soccer until high school, if that's your passion.

15/f. Since probably elementary school, I've had "depressed" periods and overly happy periods. I feel a depression coming on. They usually come after a happy period. I usually get one when I feel like my friends don't like me or I just feel like people don't like me in general, or when I feel like my parents nag me too much, or even not being in a musical or performance for a while can do it. Little things can trigger it. Is there something wrong with me? Can I do anything to make it milder? I hate feeling this way. (link)
|
No, there is absolutely nothing wrong with you. I think you do have depression, from what I can tell by your description, I see some symptons there. I recommend going to a doctor, and getting diagnosed. Explaing your symptons, etc. And he/she can tell you if you do have depression, for sure. If you do, he/she will put you on medication.
My mother has depression, and she was diagnosed and put on medication. And she's better than she's ever been in her life. So I do have some personal experience with this, as far as my mother. So I do strongly recommend, going to a doctor. And again, please don't think there's something wrong with you. Depression is very common, and your situation, so you're not alone.
I have some websites for you on depression, maybe you can see if you have all of the symptoms. And learn more about it.

So there is this guy that likes me, and I like him too. We arent going out though. But lately i've been thinking about him like 25/7! Is this normal? I feel stupid because, what if he isnt thinking about me that much? Or at all!!?? Do alot of girls think 24 hours a day about a guy that they like? (link)
| |
Listen, this is absolutely normal, assuming you a teen, it's very common. So you don't really have anything to worry about. However, don't let this guy rule your life, and slip in your studies and with your friends. :)

I just got an iTunes Gift card and I have no idea how to use it. I got onto the music store and it says at the back of the card, "click iTunes Music Card" but there's no button for that in the music store.
How do you get the code in? What do you click on first in the store? (link)
| |
Once you have clicked on your iTunes, go to the iTunes Music Store. You should find, "Redeem" on the page. Click on it, and you will be asked to enter your code on the back of your iTunes Gift Card.

Is it possible tha you some poeple can't wear tampons i never tried them but i am a litle scared to when i tried to douche i couldn't even get that into my vagina what is the best way to insert it? (link)
|
No, all women and girls can insert tampons. And the instructions of how to insert them (there is only one way), come with the tampons.
And by the way, you have nothing to worry about. Inserting a tampon is easy, and absolutely pain-free!

Are sweater uggs in style now? I cant really explain.. but they kinda look like sweaters on... an ugg, haha. also where can I buy them for cheap? I may get them.. or anyone know any upcoming spring styles that are good? or styles now. tell me all you know! (link)
|
Hi, they are definitely in style right now. They're actually at an all-time high. As the person below mentioned, you can buy them at Nordstrom. And probably on their website, too.
UGG Australia sells them, for in my opinion, very cheap prices.

ok so theres this guy that ive been friends with for about 5-6months+! we can tell each other ANYTHING. but anyway...hes the sweetest guy but lately hes been acting a little different. everytime i talk to him it's "ooohh please dont fuck me like u did last night" but hes only kidding bcuz i never had sex. im a virgin. but then he started immitating all the moans and noises i would make if we did have sex...does it sound like he wants to have sex with me? but then the confusing part is he'll turn around and act normal again...off and on. should i be worried about him wanting sex from me? i mean...he just hit puberty so...can't really blame the guy for being curious right?
and i wanna have sex with him...dont get me wrong im not a slut!
...but should i do it?
thanks in advance (link)
|
I know, I'm only one year older than you, but I definitely do not recommend having sex with him or any guy at your age. Because at this time, as you mentioned about this guy, he hit puberty (just as us girls do, except at a smaller degree.) And that's what happens, but when you get older, you may regret this big time. And I don't know you, but I definitely would hate that for you.
I think you should really think about this, and look at it from a point -- in the long run, what am I going to think? How am I going to feel? More than likely, not very good about this, in my opinion. And I'm sure truly, that you want your first time to be special and with someone you love, right? I don't think this will happen for you, now. And this guy doesn't sound very mature, as most aren't around our ages.
So please, I just ask you to really think about this hard. And understand, that sex really does have consequences, especially, in your situation. You could get pregnant, even if you were to be on birth control and use a condom, there's still that chance of getting pregnant or sexually transmitted diseases, too.
Good luck with everything, and again, I strongly recommend that you do not have sex with this guy, and to think this over.

ok, my computer isn't very old, but not a really nice new one eaither. my computer didn't come with mirosoft word. and i really need it for school projects and stuff because all i have is word pad and that sucks. so, do i have to buy something from like, wal-mart or somewhere to get microsoft word. thanks a bunch!!!!

I recommend Microsoft Office 2007, but it is very expenisive. It can cost you anywhere from $200-$350. The Home and Student version is very good, I'm currently on a free trial (60 days.) However, I couldn't afford to fork out that much money on computer software. And if you're like me, I definitely recommend a subsititute. Such as Star Office. It's a very good word document, works just about as well as Microsoft Office or Microsoft Word.
You can get a free trial here -- http://us1.trymicrosoftoffice.com/default.aspx?culture=en-US

Okay so last monday me and some friends were hanging out. And the boy I so happen to have a crush on was there but he has a girlfriend. Okay well we were flirting A LOT. And by the end of the day we ended up kissing. >_< I feel so horrible about this! So basically I made him cheat on his girlfriend. And everyday I feel worse and worse about it. What do I do? Im so confused right now. =( (link)
|
Well, yes, I do agree that you did give him some temptation and you did go along with it. However, that does not make it your sole responsibily in this case. Because he is that girl's boyfriend, and he should know better. If he was a good boyfriend, or even a good guy, he would have never done that. So don't take the blame for everything, it's not all your fault. It is his fault, too.
The only thing I can tell you to do, if it will give you some peace from your conscience, and it probably will. Tell his girlfriend what happened, I know that it much easier said than done. But at least at the end of the day, you can say that you did tell her and you're not letting her live a lie. That her boyfriend wouldn't cheat on her, or something like that. You may even be doing her a favor, whether or not she's a good person, I don't know. But I still think she has a right to know, as his girlfriend.

ok i want to get my ear lobbs pierced but my parents wont let me any advice on how to make my parents let me. plz help:) (link)
| |
I have a few (hopefully, helpful) suggestions for you -- I would talk to them both, and ask them why they do not want you get your ears pierced. After, make sure not to be defense, but explain to them your reasoning for getting your ears pierced. I'm sure if you have good reasoning for it, and you can understand the points they're making, you'll probably be able to get them pierced.

When I get home from school, all I do is eat. But I want to stop doing that because I want to lose 10 pounds. So what are some HEALTHY snacks that are still good to eat? Thanks. :] (link)
|
It is proven that snacking is a very healthy thing, and it keeps your metabolism going. So that you have right, but yes, I do suggest eating healthy snacks. Here are some healthy snacks, that I think would be great for you:
1. Fruits (Apples, Grapes, Oranges, Grapefruit, Cherries, etc.)
2. Vegetables (Carrots, Broccoli, Spinach, Tomatoes, Lettuce, etc.)
3. Yogurt (Any kind will do, just make sure you're getting the fat free kind.)
4. Special K (Their cereal can be used as a great healthy snack, or a meal. And they have a few different kinds to chose from.)
5. Special K Bars (I myself, eat some junk food, but I can tell you that these are delicious and healthy.)

I just found out today and I saw my mom'm boyfriend is going to live with us. The thing is I don't want him here. I really don't want to see him. What am I going to do. How am I going to deal? I don't like how I feel. (link)
|
I'm assuming there is a very good reason for you not wanting, your mother's boyfriend to live with you. If you haven't already, I would talk to you mother and tell her how you feel. Because I think that will make a huge difference in what will happen. I'm sure she wants and cares very much to know your opinion, about this.
Good luck, I'm sure everything will work out just fine! :)
