I always get the perfect amount of sleep per night. Well, it varies from eight to ten hours. I take a melatonin pill at night to help me fall, and stay asleep.
The problem is, I NEVER wake up refreshed! I'm always dragging myself out of bed.
I've recovered from hypothyroidism which makes you really sleepy, but I'm taking Levothyroxine for that.
So, why can't I get out of bed in the morning?
Or else, how can I get a more satisfying nights sleep?
It is quality, not quantity that counts, right?
If your taking a sleeping pill then the reason is that you never get to the deep part of a sleep so you feel more tired.
I don't really get the pills you said you take, so if you don't take a sleeping pill then completly ignore this answer!

when you need advice uaslly u get it from yourself but i dont know if i should get it from my heart or my mind my hearts telling me to stay but my minds telling me to go which one to follow
You can't live your life following your heart. Or following your head. You have to consider both. Try making a pro and con list. Or just stay for a little bit longer and if things don't get better then leave. I'm not really sure that this has to do with, but i don't want you to regret this dissiction.

i'm only a sophmore, but i'm starting to look for colleges early. i'm really interested acting/singing professionally. I was wondering,does anyone have a clue as to some good colleges that has this? i'd prefer it to be in california or new york :P. but every time i try to look it up on google i get confused :(. thanks for your time
NYU sounds like a good fit for you. However, this is really difficult to get into. You have to be really good in the performing arts section and have excelent grades.
Sorry thats all i know!!
Good luck

1 where is the original book "the diary of anne frank"?
2 if anne franks father published it does that mean that he didnt die before her? where was he?
3 how come her nationality was german but she was jewish, sorry im new to this i dont get stuff..
I THOUGHT GERMANS HATED JEWS. SORRY if i offend anyone im just interested in learning these stuff
thanks.
Theres nothing wrong with being a German Jew. It was perfectly fine thing until hitler came along. As the person before me the women and men were sepperated. When the family was discovered in the atic they had only a few minutes to gather some things which were later taken from them. At the end of her diary it ends mid-sentence, because they forced her to leave. Anne died 4 days or so before they let all the Jewish people leave the camps. Her father had no where to go so he went back to the house thinking his wife or his two daughters might return there. When he got the death notes he was upset. But when the lady gave him Anne's diary and he read it. He found out that she wanted to be a writer. He wanted to make her dream come true, so he had her journal. made into a book, what she wanted her whole life. He wanted her to be around forever, and for the world to know his families story. You won't get the original because it's her diary. However, if you want the original story you can easily get that from your local libray or bookstore, thats your best bet. I don't speak for every libray, but they should have it. If they don't have it then there not a good libray. This book tells how life was during this time. But this girl was there, living it. It's moving and very well written. You forget that this is a teenager writing this book.
Deffinetly read this book it's really good.
Hope I helped!

My boyfriend doesnt call me when I ask him too. He always yells at me about something. He hurts my feelings 24/7 and expects me to wait on him hand and foot. I do everything for him and yet that still isnt enough. everything he has iv bought it. I feel worthless and I get stressed out with him and we get into screaming fights because he wont let me do what I want but I have to let him do what he wants. He used to be friends with this guy and I cheated on my boyfriend with him like 2 years ago. I know it was wrong and I admitted it but this "friend" of his keeps lying to him. and everyone thinks im the liar. What should I do?
Are you serious? Who does this guy think he is? You diserve so much better. Let this guy have his friend and leave. If he hurts you this bad then being alone would be better. Besides no person was brought in to this world to go through what your going through. Leave this guy. Your to good for him

I don't think you should plan your stops. It will be less fun. What I think you should do is go on the highway and look at billboards and if you find something funny, like the world's largest truck stop, then stop and have fun. It'd be more fun if your not like actually planning something and if it just comes to you.

Does anyone know where i can watch like interviews with child beauty contestants (or former child beauty contestants)...i can't seem to find any on youtube.
Thanks!
I don't think you can do that. Your usually not allowed to have the parent in the room. If your not alowed to have the parent them i'm going to assume that the same goes for cameras.
I would look aroung on this site for basic pagent information: http://www.pageant-tips.com/

ok so there's this guy that I like ! & I thought he was the greatest thing that ever happened to me(relationship wise) because I never trusted anyone as quickly as I gave my trust to him . he made me believe him when he said that he would never cheat on me! I felt that I had my guards up for too long and that I really wanted to be in a relationship where I was cared for/loved . was I wrong for wanting that? so it was thanksgiving when I met him . we exchanged numbers and he called me later that night . we just talked and stuff . & I absolutely loved his voice . wellllll . 7 days later he asked me out and I said yeah . then my mom brought me to her sister's house (he lives by her) and I was outside with him and his friends . his friends were trying to talk to me and kept askin me if I thought they were cute (which one of them was) and he was like "chill out" and we were just like cuddling and stuff . then I kissed him and it just felt like it was my first kiss ever (which it was not) .
then my parents and grandparents and stepparent started to not like how he was . because he dresses in "thug"ish clothing . & I started to like him more (i don't know if as an act of rebellion)but the more I started to like him the more it seemed like he didn't realize how much I did and didn't seem to care. ohhhh and did I mention there's a girl who claims that she's his girlfriend (she messaged me on myspace) but he told me no . so I looked at his myspace and she was first on his tops. so I asked him about it and he said it was old and that he had to change it but out of all the times he signed on the only thing he changed was that big pic of her on his page(she's still on his tops)i cried sooooooo hard last night and I couldn't stop for anythinggg . I don't want anyone elseeeee BUT him . & I really mean it . I want him to want me back
what's wronggggg ! =(
Talk to him again. Say that you don't like his top. Talk to the girl too if you need more convinsing. Depending on how far your aunt lives ask your parents to invite him over for dinner or something where they can meet him and hopefully see what you like about him. Just talk about it he sounds like hes a good beau. But is it to good to be true? I don't know, I odn't see you guys when your together. But just talk it out, its the best way to get everything off your trust.

I am 17 and a senior in high school. I have been talking to a 15 yr old freshman. The thing is, he likes me. I know I do like him, too..so that's a factor. Anyway, he calls me, and we talk on aim a lot. He wants to hang out soon. He isn't like me at all, but yet..thats what i like about him. So, when we were on the phone and stuff.. like when people are in the room and they're talking to him, he tells them how i'm 17 and acts like its a big deal. BUt, when people leave the room he is really interested in talking to me. The thing is, I don't know if I should go out with him because of the fact that he is 15, and I will be leaving to college (which I know im going to, I already got accepted) in the next 7 or so months. I don't know if I should get into the relationship. 1, because i dont know how serious the relationship will be..(i mean, he's a freshman..) and 2, because I will be leaving.
any advice, please?
Age is nothing but a number, but your right in a few ways. A freshman isn't going to be serious about a relationship. I'm a freshman and I don't want a long relationship. Also, you don't know if this guy is going to just use the fact that your a senior to his advantage. And you don't want to get to deep in this relationship just to leave. But YOU need to decide if its worth it. No one can decide for you not me not your best friend not even another person on this site. Make a pro and Con list. If the Pro's outweigh the cons then go for it. As a senior do you want to be tied down your last year? Maybe you should just have fun and keep this guy as a close friend. I don't know though, this is your desition. If this is confusing then drop a question in my inbox and i'll explain.
You probally don't want to hear this because it's going to make you even more confused, but if you really like this guy his age and your age shouldn't matter.

so, there was a sadie hawkins dance at my school. the guy that i planned on asking acted like a jerk right before i was about to ask him (long story) and i just couldn't ask him. so i asked my best guy friend. we've been like brother and sister for a little more than a year. this friend doesn't go to my school. so the dance comes and we go out to dinner, he refuses to let me pay for my own dinner, and everything is going great. when we get to the dance, we're just hanging out and i introduce him to all of my friends. when the first slow dance comes, he grabs me and pulls me reallllly close. we dance and we don't even talk while we're dancing. we just stare at each other and smile. when the song ends, we just stand there. he's holding me and i'm smiling and then one of my friends comes up and taps him on the shoulder. she says "you know the song's over right? you don't have to stand there like that..." and he just says "yeah i know." so the rest of the dance goes that way. after the dance, he says he had a really good time. after that, everything went back to normal. in school, i literally was asked 100 times 'are you going out with him?''you looked so cute together' blah blah. now, i'm thinking about him a lot more and i'm wondering...does he have a thing for me? could we be more than friends? help !
That's really cute. I agree with the person before me, the signs are there. BUT, it's your job to jump on them. Make the effort to hang out with him and make your connection stronger. Go to a movie have him over with a bunch of your friends (he knows them now and they could get to know each other better so then it'd be cool for him to hand out with you while your with your friends.) I think that that's great. Clearly this is a good guy and not the kind that are jerks and use you.
have fun, and if you need anymore help just drop a question in my inbox

So I've been seeing this guy for a few months and there is a four-year age difference. I am 18 and he is 22. I've met his parents and a lot of his friends and all of them were super nice, but the other night I asked him how his parents felt about me being young. He said, "My mom hates it" and she always brings up thing I'm still in high school. His dad is fine with it though.
The impression I leave on parents is really important to me. I know it's nothing personal about me, i'm a nice girl, but she can't see past the age thing I guess. This just really upsets me and I don't know what to do. It isn't something I can change. My age is my age. Any tips or comforting words? Thanks!
the mom said she hates the AGE not you. So just drop it. Stay on her good side. You clearly are. I think that she'll get over it with time. Like the person said before me, it's only a number. And you can't help how old you are. She'll get over it if she cares about her son. She wants him to be happy and if hes happy then your part of the picture.

My boyfriend has never introdued me to his friends because I know about them and they are definitely not my type of people. They're stuck up and snobby and very annoying. I mean all that in a nice way.
Well my Boyfriend told me that if they add me on myspace to delete them. So they tried and I denied the request as what my boyfriend said.
so his friend got very mad that I denied her and posted up a picture of my boyfriend and his ex girlfriend on his page in a comment of course. My boyfriend and I have seen this picture before and it broke my heart. And seeing it again on his myspace got my so mad I broke down in tears. I sent him a text saying
"I don't know what the $%^& you and your friends are trying tp pull but it sure as hell hurts. And now I realize what kinda guy you are..."
I hate that picture becuase he left me before and went for this other girl and the fact that his friend would post a picture on there to get me mad makes no sense to me at all. Why is she being immature?
My question is what should I do?
I love him very much but if he's gonna have friends that oppose his happiness how can I tell him this?
I think that if his friends mean more than he should just end it with me before I get hurt worse?
Help?
It's not your boyfriends fault that they posted the picture. If he's with you then he's with you because he likes you. What I would do is make the effort to meet his friends, regardless of weather or noth there your 'type'. If there not then you make the sacrafice and deal with it because you care about him. I understand that your upset, and I would be to. But mybe you should tlak to him about how this makes you feel. He most likely wasn't in on the picture being posted. You need to talk to him and just be like it hurt and i want to meet your friends and if i don't like thim i'm still going to make the effort to be friends with thim. You'll do it if you like him. HE DIDn'T GET THE PICTURE POSTED ON HIM MYSPACE. He probally feels bad. IT'S NOT HIS FAULT. Seriously, talk to him becaue you blaming him for something that is not his fault isn't fair. Just talk it out
if you need me to explain more and help you with what you should say then drop a question in my inbox and i'll gladly help you.

thanks for the help but jewlery got us in this problem with her mom. i gave her a necklace her mom saw it and thats how i got banned. bc im black. so thats mostly y wwe argued. but she broke up with me 2day.
Sorry to hear that. That is racist. I'm unsure what you want me to answer with this question but maybe this is for the better if her family is going to act like this. Your girlfriend should trust you and belive that you didn't do it if you say you didn't. If she doesn't then this won't work out. You better off on your own. A relationship is built on trust and if she doesn't trust you its not going to last. SO just leave it as it is and don't worry about it.

My question is Me and my girlfriend have been dating for 5 months and we rele love each other but when she finally told her ma her mom banned us from talking an we still alked bt very secretly. in the last month but all we ever did waz argue in that month now shes tired of it. and thinks i dont care. What do i have to do to prove that i still love her an that r flame for each other hasnt gone away???
Try inviting her and her mother to dinner at your house with your family, this will prove that you still care and that you want to put in the effort for your relationship. Try explaining to her how you feel. Wright a long note explaining your feelings for her. Stop arguing. Just suck it up. If shes clearly wrong tell her shes right and just end it. I'm sorry, but thats the easiest way.
thats all i can think of right now but if you want more detail or a better answer drop a question in my inbox.

i just got my acceptance letter to a catholic school today, and i got accepted. problem is i didn't get a scholarship. not even a $1500 one.
i got a 572 on my HSPT entrace exam
and i get straight A's.
however, i got a's & b's last year.
the high school costs $9,960.
my parents said if i get at least $3000 scholarship there, i could get in.
so how do i convince them to send me there?
the town high school thats my only choice now SUCKS but my parents think that if i do well there i could still be good in college
i REALLLLY want to go to this school
so please give me some convincing things i should tell them and dont criticize me telling me how my parents are right.
thanks
Offer paying for some of it, if you want it that bad it should be worth it. Clearly, you won't pay for the whole $3,000. But, just explain to them how much it matters. Tell them where you want to go in life and how this school can help you. It might be more convinsing if you have a set plan for the future and you prove that without this school your future won't be possible. Just beg and plead. We don't know your parents so we won't know what will work, so i'm just giving you suggestions and if you don't jthink that they'll work then sorry!

I have a friend who I've never met - we're pen pals - but whom I used to talk to on the phone at least once a day. About five months ago she lost her temper with me for a very stupid reason and started calling me names online, on various blog sites. I asked her stop, she would for a day or two and then start back up again. She goes through this period of "I'm sorry" and I want to believe her, so I give her another chance, but then the name calling starts up again. She's done this four times now. All attempts of reasoning with her have failed. As have all attempts to let her know it's not fair to me to call me names, apologize and get mad that I can't forget the things she's said about me. It's always my fault - I'm not around enough, I don't call her, etc. And by the way, she's 25 and I'm 27, if that makes a difference; which I know, it shouldn't.
If you guys are in a relation ship where your going out then this isn't okay. If your just pen pals, why are you putting up with this? My suggestion is that this isn't going to stop. Why are you wasting your time with a perosn you don't even know. End this. If you want to give me more detail I can give you a better answer.

how do i make a webshow and what do i need besides internet and a computer
Well, most people use a digital camera that can record and has sound. Then you just connect it to the computer and load it onto youtube, or your website if thats what your looking for. A website is a lot of work and there are so many HTML codes that you need to know for a website. Your best bet might be to just go to youtube. But if you don't wnat to use a digital camera you can use a video camera. THe only thing is that you have to make sure you have an attachment to the computer so you can actually go and load it to the computer.
As for making a webshow just have fun with is. Don't try to script the whole thing because then you'll get frustrated. Work on your improv skills. You need to be able to think on your feet.

hey with this guy i asked him if i can sit by him at studyhall and he said you can sit by me if u want to is that good.. lol.. i really like him like i ask him to do things with me and like i asked him to go to this friday night live thing with me and he said he rather play on the computer so like he isnt standing me up right he just wants to play on the computer. i do that 2. but yah thanks and i will rate u.. please help me
Try having a normal conversation with him before you ask him out. Not that ask out i mean like hang out ask out. But, it seems a little odd. No one turns someone down by saying i'd rather play on the computer, either hes not that into you or hes a little strange OR maybe, he was kidding?. Yea, but just get to know him a little.
Standing up is when your there and the person doesn't show up, hes not standing you up, hes regecting you, in an asshole way. Get to know this guy though.

what aer some good places i can prank call for fun such as pizza places olike eagle boys or something or my friends house
also what are some things i can say that are funny but not to obvious to the person on the other end of the call.
and what can in disguise my voice as?
Call peoples houses at 2 in the morning and just hold regular conversations with them like hello, how are you and most of the time they'll talk to you for a minute then they'll ask do you know what time it is and just be like yea, its 5. or go in your school directory and pretend to be their child's teacher. Or, pretend to be planned parent hood for their child.
What I heard which is hilarious is to call a bolling alley and ask them if they have 10 pound balls and they'll go yea and then say well how the hell can you walk
If you think of the voices on the spot its funnier.

My friend send me a text saying we can't no longer be friends. We were the best of friends, confide in one another with our problems and issues. I depended on her and she knew she could count on me. This is what apparently did it for her:
She invited me to her bff's wedding and I told her I would go. She emailed me info on the wedding but when I replied she didnt' respond. I got really sick for 3 days and didn't call her nor did she. Then came Thanksgiving and the day after she text me "you should have told me you couldn't make it to the wedding" the event was a day after Thanksgiving. I replied what are you talking about you didn't call me to confirm. She then said we could no longer be friends.........
She holds against me that she didn't make it to her bff's wedding. I mean if you invite someone to a special event isn't it that person's responsibility to follow up and plan things out? I did say I would go but got really sick and since she didn't call I didn't know what was going on..............
She also holds against me her bday. We were suppose to celebrate it at a club and when I text her (a few minutes before we left) if my friend could go she wrote "go with her & take care" I text her back "nah it's your bday" she kept saying "no go and have fun" I did go and she holds that against me.............
Now where did I go wrong?
You should have called her about the wedding. She should have called you about the wedding. There is know one person to blame. You BOTH could have done something. Drop the birthday thing. Who cares, is she 3?! ANyway, if you really want her as a friend, regardless of wether or not you think shes wrong apologize. For everything including the birthday party thing. JUst be like i was being a bad friend when that happend and i'm sorry admit your at fault, even if your not.
