about

My name is Teza.. short for Tereza. I was born in Croatia and I speak more than one language. I'm 22 years old & I completed 2 college degrees in 3 years. My a bachelors is in Business Administration concentration in Human Resources and my Masters degree is also in HR.



I started this advice column about 9years ago and I was so young but it was something that I always loved to do. I am trying to get back to answering questions, at least a few per day. With that said, if you have questions about school, friends, make up, etc., feel free to ask.





Much love, Teza

advice

ok. i say labels should be between a soup can and its wrapper. im NOT A GOTH and im NOT PUNK! i hate labels. and i wish theyd stop. how do i get people to see im not a goth or anything,but keep my style of clothing and stuff. please dont say dont worry abt what people think. even my own friends call me emo

--thx

No matter what you wear, the way you talk & act, people will always seem to give you a label. As much as you want people to stop, they won't. I get called prep, stuck up, spoiled, snotty, just because of the way I dress. I learned to get over it and just to deal with the immature people. I'm not gonna change the style of my clothing just so people can stop labeling me. I hate labels, but I came to the conclusion where it's normal now. You can't make people stop calling you that, but just tell them that that is who you are and that's what you like to dress like. Your friends should understand where you are comming from. Just talk to them again and make sure they know you are serious. For the other people who don't know you, screw them. They're wrong and they're just being very immature.

when people say word what are they replacing ? what does it mean ? yes I know im kind of slow when it comes to these. I'll rate

Like, when someone agrees with something they just say "word" It's that stoned surfer talk. But it's just instead of saying yeah, you can say word.

im the kind of girl that always has to have her hair perfect and always perfectly straight and in place when she hangs out with like guys. and i hate it!! lol i hate always tryin to be soo pretty..when im not even! i love the people that are like oh my hair is effed..oh well! well i dont know i try and not to care about my looks but i feel like its important and like it boosts my confidence you kno!? anyway to like still look good but not have to look in the mirror every couple minutes? haha. thanks x0

I'm like that too.. but at times. I know you want to impress the guys and everything, but why do you have to look in the mirror every couple of minutes when you will still look the same? If it boosts up your confidence, then keep doing it. I mean there is nothing wrong with loving yourself & how you look. Don't worry about it though. Just try not to keep looking at the mirror as much. You will still look the same lol.

WOW do i ever hate mondays seriously it really depresses me..because i cant stand school. and its like freakin -20 degrees in our school lol. but anyways im starting to get really fed up with everyone in my classes and i dont even wanna see them anymore im really bothered by them. and like thats why i love hangin out with other people from different schools on the weekend..but this weekend the person that i usually do somethin with isnt gonna be home ..(shes gonna be outta town or somethin im not sure) so what am i suppose to do? haha usually i have somethin fun to look forward to the whole week! but now i have to work on friday so i know that i have to do that but yeah..this just makes the week go by really slow. and i think im really falling for this guy from a different school..and i havent even met him yet =\ like ive seen him and seen how he acts and i pratically just fell in love with him but my BEST FRIEND really really likes him too..cuz she was the one who told me about him so now i feel really bad and she doesnt know..so i dont know i feel really bad and like she hasnt introduced me to him yet..but hes all i can think about like his look and how funny he is i dont know and hes like super popular i guess and there is this other girl he kinda likes i suppose so how could i kinda get his attention? or because she is too shy to go up to him and i dont know him! ahh soo confusing so if you have any advice for all of this thank you very very much. and i apologize for it being like super long!!

Ah, I hate Mondays too!! I'm always soo sleepy & tired & just out of it!! I agree with you lol. Don't worry about this being long. Anyways, sometimes I also get really fed up with people at my school. I mean we always see the same people, and we just have the same rutine every day so we get sick of it. Since that girl is going out of town, just hang out with your best friend.. unless she is your best friend. I know you have friends from your school, so just hang out with them. Maybe it would be different and it could be fun? I don't think that you fell in love with this guy, but I think you fell for his personality and just everything about him, but I still woudln't call it love. Lol. Since your best friend likes him, just try talking to her about it. I mean you are best friends and you should be able to tell each other anything. Don't let a guy come between your friendship because that would be a really low thing to do. Does this guy at least know you? How you look like? Who you are? If he does, then it will make it easier. If you have his screen name, IM him. Keep talking to him, be fun, flirty and outgoing. You will get his attention.

Okay, so last night I made out with my boyfriend of about 2 1/2 months for the first time. How do you tell if you're a good kisser or not? I know it's sort of a personal/awkward thing to ask, but how do you really tell?? Thanks for your advice, I ask questions sometimes, & when I do it's always to you, you're the best.

Aw thank you!! If you felt good about it, then he was a good kisser. If he was bad you would probablly just think ahh I don't want to do that with him again, but if you want to then he was pretty good. I mean it was your first time with him. Of course it was okward, but once you guys start doing it more you will know for sure.

TEzA! okay this is serious here haha

so here is my problem.. whenever i think a guy is hott imlike soo shy around them and if i think their ugly im like really outgoing and stuff and i wish i wasnt like that!! i wish i was outgoing all the time. and like whenever my friends wanna hang out with these hott guys im like nooo.. =\ cuz im really embarassed and i think i will say somethin stupid or just look stupid. or they will be like "wow your really quiet how come you dont talk much" and i wish i did talk more but i dont..and i mean yeah i LOVE the attention and looks from guys if i get any lol.. but its just the fact of talking to them and stuff. and my friend like this kid and i think he is super hott too and she knows it.. buttttt like what if i meet him and he like starts to flirt with me or something..what do i do because i would wanna do it back but then id feel soo bad because i know my friend likes him..but then again he is soooo adorable. well sorry its so long but yeah if you could answer it thatd be awesome!

talk to you later love
xoxo

I think that you are just worried about what they will think about you. You feel better when you don't talk to more attractive people because you feel that they are on a lower level then you. But I think you also feel that thoes hot guys will talk about you and won't think you're hot. Anyways, just talk to them. If non attractive people like you, so will the more attractive people. Just be yourself!!!! Have fun talking and flirting with those guys. If you are all quiet, they might not think you have a very fun personality. Since your friend likes that guy, don't do anything that would make her mad. Just talk to him and if he flirts back, then alright.

is it true that if you work out with layers of clothing on like sweatpants and sweatshirt that you'll lose more weight?

You won't be loosing more weight, but you will be burning more calories.

do you think it's bad to but everyone the same thing for christmas? like all of your friends?

No it's not a bad idea. I did that one year because I didn't know what to get everyone, so I just got them the same thing but it was a bit different in a way.

How do you overcome jealousy?

The guy i like (along with previous guys) look at pictures of girls and comment on how good/hott they look and it makes me extremly jealous and i always end up creating drama... how can i get over this??? PLEASE HELP!!

Being jelous is a normal thing, however creating drama isn't. You really can't do anything about those guys thinking that. All you can do is ignore it. You know you also look good, but just because they say "You're hot" doesn't really mean anything. That means they are just looking at their bodies. Just try to overcome it. Don't care so much because there are probablly plenty of guys who also think you're hot. When you feel like you're going to start drama, just get over it. It's very unnecessary.

i'm moving into a new house and I don't know what
color to paint my room!!!!!! Please Help. All the color quizzes I've taken say different things like I'm purple, gray, green and blue. Is there any true color test where it will really tell you what color you should paint your walls so you won't get annoyed etc. of it. Please I really need help

Are you a really happy and energetic person? If so, paint it something bright. Like I'm that type of person so my room is bring orange with bright things. If you are the calm type, you could have lavander, olive greens. Then try to match things with it and make it the way you like it.

Thank you! You're such a sweet heart. I think you are a little thin. You should be around 100 lbs. You probablly have a high motabilsm (sp) & that's why you don't gain weight.

sincerely --

in paiN!

I'm not really sure. Ask your mom though. Just get some alchocol .. very little and clean it. Use a q tip though and just clean it out. I know it might burn a little but I did it once & it worked. If it doesn't help, call your doctor and ask. You can also use a numbing cream.

I would have to see how you look like to tell you, but if you're tall then you're fine. If YOU feel like you need to loose weight go for it. Just cut down on sugars & fats. ♥
