Lately I cant constritate on my school work. My grades are slipping and I hate all my teachers. One teacher really hates me and never wants to help me. My parents think I`m doing super super great and if I get a lower then a B on my report card I would get in trouble. I`m having other problems right now and school is just my last thing to worry about. We are having a huge test Thursday and if we fail this we fail the grade. By the way I`m 13/f. I need to do really good on this test and what is the best way to constratrate on studying and doing good on this test? Thanks!
The best way to concentrate on this big test is to sit yourself down, get away from your computer/TV and study. Study has hard as you can with different techniques; make flash cards or have your family quiz you and such. Your main goal is to study and convince yourself that if you fail this test, then you will stay back and that's bad. I know that your teachers hate you but really, they are just teaching you and you can just ignore them and just listen when they teach. Teachers shouldn't hate you for no apparent reason and if your teachers somewhat bring down your grade, tell your principal. Just study as hard as you can and you will do good on this test.

Okay, so i went out with this guy a i really really like him and stuff but when we went out we never saw eachother (diff schools) he acted like he didn't really wanna talk to me, we didnt talk on the phone or anything, and yeah it was weird so i dumped him. We have been friends for a while and when we arent going out we go to movies and stuff n talk on the phone all the time and yeah. I really like him, but i dont want to go out with him unless things can change...but i dont really know what to do. hes always like "i wish you would go out with me" and that he really likes me and stuff. But now hes mad about it and he told me he might just go out with this other girl because it doesn't matter and i was like crying (it was over the internet) because i still really like him! and i guess it seemed like he was trying to make me mad by saying stuff about the other girl or whatever but yeah i dont know what to do..should i go out with him again? or just forget him? or what??
You definitely need to talk to your ex-boyfriend and tell him that you like him and that you will go out with him again, only if things in your relationship can change. Explain to him about the things that need to be changed and if he really likes you and wants to go out with you again, then he will listen and will try to make things change and such. I think he was just trying to get you mad when he said that he will go out with this girl because he specifically told you that he liked you and wanted to go out with you again. Don't forget about your ex-boyfriend because everyone deserves second chances and you just need to tell him how you feel and he will make things change.

Is it possible to find a tanning bed at a yard/garage sale, or would it be stupid for someone to sell one? I'm just wondering if I should be on the look out for one...but would someone sell a tanning bed? I'm just trying to see what are some other ways for getting one besides ordering one full price. Can you help me?
Yes, it's possible to find a tanning bed at a yard sale but you rarely find them being sold. Some people actually sell them and it wouldn't be stupid but usually, the tanning beds may not be working properly and such. You can find some one Ebay and you can find out if it works and is safe for you.

ok well i am 13 female and there is this boy named alex and he is really really hot and popular and he said that he needs a girlfriend becuz he is lonely and my friend adriana put all these girls names on a piece of paper and gave it to alex so he can rate them and my name was on there and he rated me a 1!!! I am not the prettiest girl alive and i am kinda overweight so what can i do for him 2 rate me like a 7 or sumthing???? and any advice about excrise so i can lose weigt???????
-confused
You don't need to lose weight, just because this guy rated you a 1. It shows that he only goes for a girl's appearance and that's wrong. You really can't make him rate you higher because he already rated you but you can start wearing more make up and dressing differently and he'll notice you but then you aren't yourself. If you want to lose weight, just start eating healthy, watching what you eat, and exercise daily. You can run or jog on a treadmill and do crunches and sit ups and so on. Go to this link to find more exercises: http://www.toneteen.com. Don't just change for this guy because there are other guys out there who don't go for a girl's appearance and you don't need a guy like this.

how do i make it so that it shows the rating in my advice column?
For your rating to be shown on your column, you need to be rated at least 5 times and it will show up. Just answer more questions and you'll be rated.

ive been going out with this boy since last friday (6 days) i like him so much and firday im going to a dance with him should i makeout with him or is it too soon
If he wants to make out with you, then go for it and make out with him. If you like him, then it's alright and it doesn't matter if it's too soon or not.

i only know what it is like to get my ears peirced so i have no clue about other peircings. what are the coolest places to get peirced on my body? what is the pain level rated 1-10 when you get your belly button peirced? how do they do it, can u please tell me the procedure of doing it, like every detail coz i wanna know exactly what they do before geting mine done.
thanks!
I have had so many experiences with piercing my own belly button that it will be easy to explain this. I got my belly button professionally done when I was 13 but I pierced it 5 times before that. If I had to rate the pain of getting my belly button pierced professionally on a scale, I'd say it would be a 2 or 3; it hurt less getting it professionally done than doing it by myself. The way your belly button is pierced is you need to go to a body piercing parlor that is clean and you then pick out a barbel. The body piercer than brings you into a room and you sit down. They then took a tong -- it looks just like a regular one except it's smaller -- and they clamp some of your skin with the tongs and pierce your belly button from the bottom up. After that, the body piercer just explains everything to you. If you need to know anything else, feel free to ask.

I need to know some of your opinions on popular computer brands. I'm in the market for a new computer. The one I'm on right now is a Peice-of-Crap. So, if you have any experience with certain computers or prefer any certain computer please let me know.
Don't listen to the columnists who told you to get a Dell, trust me, I used to have one and they are a little bit pricey but they are cheap. I think you should either get a Compaq or a Macintosh. These two brands are great.

hey im 15f, whats the best way to quit smoking? i tried cold turkey and lasted 3 days.
To quit smoking, you can start chewing more gum instead of smoking, since it stops your cravings. You can also try the Nicorette patch and gum because they both work. Tell your friends and family that when ever you want a cigarette, tell them to tell you not to and then they can hide it. I used to smoke and I just chewed a lot of gum and I eventually stopped over time.

can u get herpes from giving someone without herpes head? like do they have to have the disease for u to get it? PLEASE HURRY! im very worried :(
Nope, you cannot get herpes from a guy that you are giving oral sex to that doesn't have it. You can only get it if the other person has it.

ok my mom's b/f's son (lets call him chip) hooked me and his friend (call him dip) up but now chip found out that me and dip want 2 makeout friday and hes telling a bunch of ppl so now dip isnt sure if he wants 2 go out b/c also chip's dad threatned to kill dip if he tried 2 do anything with me.. i like dip and dip likes me should i try 2 end our relationship or try to talk chip into not beliving we are gonna makeout soon?
No, don't end your relationship with him, just don't make out with him on Friday, wait until "Chip" stops telling everyone. Just tell "Dip", that you're going to take things slow with him because "Chip" is making a big scene about you two making out on Friday. Yes, you should also talk to "Chip" and convince him that you aren't going to make out with "Dip."

my sister and i have always gotten along great...until last week when she came home...shes 21 & im 14 btw..anyways, she became the first to find out about some "not so good" stuff ive been doing and told me i had to tell mom..I DONT WANNA! she said if i by next week shes going to!im so mad @ her! PLEASE HELP! i dont want my mom knowing and i dont want to loose the awesome relationship w/ my sister either!
Your sister is just looking out for you and doesn't want you to do anything bad, like all sisters do. You need to talk to her privately and tell her that your personal life is something that you don't need to share with anyone else, especially your mom, and that you don't have to tell her. Tell your sister that she can know about the things you do but you should be able to tell what you want and don't want to people. Make an agreement with her and tell her not to tell your mom.

hey, me and my boyfriend, were both 18, want to get married, and his mom has absolutely no problem with it, because she already considers me her daughter, but my dad is totally against it. what should i do
Since you are 18 years old, you are old enough to legally get married without your parents consent. Talk to your dad and tell him that your boyfriend is the one for you and that you love him a lot. Tell him that you are old enough to decide what you want to do and he shouldn't be against this.

i've been doing situps every other day for a while since i heard that if you do them everyday you won't get abs. is that true? and i admit i've lost some fat but the sides of my waist still have alot of fat... so how can i make them tighter? because i hate it when i'm wearing clothes that aren't even fat but theres like fat hanging off the side. advice is much needed thanks
No, that's not true because doing abdominal exercises such as sit ups will tone your abs, it will just take some time to see results. That fat or extra skin on the side of your waists are called love handles and you can do side crunches to get rid of them. They are just like crunches, except you move to the side.

I wasn't sure what to put this under.. My bestest guy friend told me the other day that he liked me since the day he saw me... I don't know if I could see him that way cuz he is like my best friend and i dont want to hurt our friendship.. All I see him as is a friend... but I dont want to hurt his feelings or make him mad... could someone give me some advice on what i should do?? Thanks in advance!
You simply need to tell your best guy friend that you don't want to ruin your friendship with him and that going out with him well mess things up. He should understand this, since you two are best friends. Tell him that you see him as a friend only, and even as a brother, and that it would be weird going out with him.

ok well i broke up with my girlfriend and i really miss her. and i dont know why. she's really pretty, the sweetest girl i ever met, and the only reason we broke up was because i thought she liked me best friend nicky. i dont know how to tell her, and really she's been a mess, but i really want her back because i care about her more than anything in the world.
You need to talk to her and tell her how you feel and that you made a mistake of dumping her. Tell her that you miss her and that you want her back because you care about her more than anything. Tell her that you thought that she liked your best friend and that you shouldn't have dumped her. Everyone deserves second chances.

hey.. im a 23/m... my mom and my xgirlfriend are like really close. well, we all live at a campsite and we are all really close, there's like, a bunch of friends living together, but i dont really have to explain that. well, they are really close because we've all known eachother since we were like 6, and all the older ones were like, 40. anyway. well, i really think i still like her, a little, but we broke up because i came in drunk and she got upset, and well we were gonna get engaged but it didnt work out. nd now her and my mom are really close and its bothering me a little, because now im all awkward around her, even though ive known her my whole entire life.
You need to talk to your ex-girlfriend and tell her how you feel about everything. Tell her that being drunk makes you do things and that she shouldn't have been upset and she shouldn't have dumped you, just because of that. She probably has realized that she made a big mistake of dumping you, just for that reason, and she may still have feelings for you. You need to talk to her and see if she does like you because if you two were supposed to get married, then your relationship definitely meant something to both of you. If you've known her for your whole life, then you should be able to talk to her. Maybe you two can work something out if she happens to forgive you and have feelings for you? Just tell her how you feel because you will have to do this one day, no matter what.

I want to know if guys like to be touched..in general? Like, arms, stomach, etc. Is that like..a turn on for them?
For most guys, yes, that is a turn on for them but some guys don't like it when they are too touchy. If you are flirting with a guy, then it's a turn on when you touch them in general. Every guy is different but most guys think being touched is definitely a turn on. My best guy friend said it's a turn on when girls touch in general.

Hey I just have a little question, everytime I am in the shower after I wash my hair and rinse it out and even when I rinse the conditioner out a lot of my hair just comes right out! Like not in huge chunks but in like a lot of strands and stuff! Is there any reason that this is happening? If anyone knows could you please help me? It usually only happens in the shower, not when it is dry!
The reason why this is happening is from stress. You may not notice yourself stressing over something but usually, this is the reason why hair falls out. It's normal and it happens to me but I straighten my hair everyday so my hair is damaaged. If you always put your hair up in a bun, your hair elastic pulls on your hair and causes this to happen to you. Puberty also plays a role in this. Don't worry, this will stop.
