I recently watched the season finale of season six of Scrubs. Anyhow, I was wondering at the very ending there's a song playing. It sounds a lot like the band Say Anything. So, I would like to know the artist and name of the song please. Can you tell me?

Alive with the glory of love.
by say anything :]

mix it up. after that,
throw in some:

gwen stefani.
fergie.
lily allen.

okay well i just got done watching the grudge 2. and let me tell you i think that was one of the most confusing movies i've ever watched. not to mention it wasn't scary at all. i mean the ending was just like wtf it didn't make sense and leaves you hanging. so can anyone explain to me what happened? and why that allison girl was in that house with that little brother? and what was up with the mom when she killed her daughter in the bathtub and she was after the little brother? and in the beginning, what was that about when the mom was cooking the bacon and she poured the grease on the dad's head and hit him on the head with the pan? haha sorry for all of these questions, you don't have to answer them all just as many as you can. thanks soo much!

considering I don't understand half of your questions,
not to be rude
I'd watch it again.
Cause it is a bit confusing.
It's a lot easier to understand the 2nd time
cause you can add all the pieces together.

but here's what I can clarify:
if you mean why was allison in the house with the little boy,
saying brother totally confused me,
it was becasue she got the grudge and now she's just like him.
and what mom who killed a daughter in what bathtub?
yeah i didn't totally get the pan part either. ha.

so like i said just watch it again
and it gets a little better.
yeah it does kinda elave you hanging too.

hope it helps

14/f. My bf is coming to visit me in august and he is also 14 and we were thinking about having sex. and we really want to and he's the kind of guy i could see myself spending the rest of my life with sense we've been dating for about 9 months. But i really dont wanna take the chance of getting pregnant. What should i do? i no we would use a condom. so dont tell me that. Am i too young? i dont think i am but some ppl do. HELP!!

A. you're 14.
B. you can't say you can see yourself spending the rest of your life with him because you're as stated, only 14.
C if you get pregnant, you screw your entire life up.

why throw that away?
I do think you're too young.

just wait.
you don't need to have sex when you're 14.
especially since you're asking if you should or not.

just don't go down that road,
casue trust me,
you'll want to turn right back around
even though it'll be too late.

16/f

Sometimes I narrate what I'm doing in my head. For example, when I got an instant message the other night, while trying to sleep, in my head I was saying "All of the sudden she hears an IM pulling her from her distant slumber and curiously gets out of bed to walk over to her computer to find out who that mysterious being is and why they beckon her at such an odd hour. As she is sluggishly making her way to the blinking box, she is almost tripped by a cold, black rod and thinks to herself 'Strange, I don't remember putting that there.' and continues on her journey...etc."

I do it ALL the time, not just at night. Is this normal, do I have an over-active imagination, or should I seek medical attention?

i do that, too.
and like the person below me,
maybe it's because I write a lot of stories, poems, etc.

I think it's fine
as long as it isn't affecting your life in any harmful way :]

edit:
I'm so sorry!
I edited the wrong answer.
some person went off on me and it was the question below yours on my edit answer page.
sorry again!

how expensive is it to get a paint job for your car?

well it really depends on what you want done...

so here's a crazy idea for you.
get up, go to the palce
and ask them yourselves
cause I really don't think that 14 year olds know much about cars & paintjobs to tell you the truth.

good luck :]

* edit asnwer.
lmao.
no if you asked if you were pregnant,
you'd be just like all the other 78 people who ask on here daily.

I know that leggings and short denim skirts have been a trend and probably are still a trend for some people. I wear leggings whenever I wear a short skirt because they're just more comfortable. I don't have to worry about my skirt lifting up when I wear leggings. But... is this look still in style? I saw a whole bunch of people wearing it at my school and this year at my school, but ever since my friend said it looked tacky I've been noticing less people wearing it these days. I still wear it. I just don't want to look like an unfashionable weirdo. Is this look still "in" at your school? Tell me what you think.

who cares if it's "in" or not.
i mean what even make sit "in"?
because a lot of people wear it?
who cares?

just wear what you want and don't worry what others think
