I am so glad to be here! I'm open to any questions that anyone wants to ask, but I will say that my specialties lie in the artistic and musical areas. My answers will always be carefully researched and thought out. Thanks for asking me a question- I'll get back to you very soon!

Hi, I'm in theatre and I have an audition coming up in August for a Shakespeare play that my school is putting on. Our director is really strict and wants everything to be authentic, so for the part I need to learn a "Queen's English" accent. I tried watching a bunch of movies but whenever I actually try, it never sounds right. So I was wondering if anybody knew of any ways I could learn without having to hire a coach. (link)
| |
Just start using this accent around the house and to your friends. They might even think it's kind of fun. And don't try too hard to make it sound right, or else it won't. After a while, your brain will figure out what's going on and fix it. Best of Luck! Hope I helped.

I am a good person. I really am--yet I have so little. However, a person I know is conceited and they are just NOT NICE--yet they have EVERYTHING handed to them. Seriously, any car, any clothes, ANYTHING. How come good people get nothing good in return but RUDE PEOPLE get EVERYTHING. Why? I am treated like CRAP every single day and I'm always compared to this person..and i'm not even close. (link)
| |
It seems like a lot of rude people are rich and because they are rich, they can get away with anything. They really can. But I also believe that everyone has a little good in them. These people haven't needed or haven't had the chance to be good. Hope I helped.

I want to thank for the girls that wrote about the pimples because now i know that i am not the only one. Thanks For the Advice!
I have a question about love life.
how do you know when u r in love?
(link)
| |
There are a lot of different kinds of love, but I assume you mean attracted-to-someone-of-the opposite-gender love. It is different for a lot of people. What happens to me is that you meet someone and get to know them, find things in common, and them Pow! One day you realize that you love them. You just know. Ask yourself a question about this person. Do you care enough about this person that you would risk your life to save theirs? Hope I helped!

Well, whenever me and my two best friends hang out it's all good and we're all happy and talkative with eachother. But lately, this one girl has started to come in and talk to us and whenever she does, I tend to get the left-out feeling. I'll talk but my two other friends'll be like,"Wait, what did you say?" and they sort of pay more attention to her and walk with her more. So basically, I get the boot. But like I said, whenever she's NOT there we're all completely fine and everything.
I just don't know how to handle her whenever she's there.
It's getting to the point that whenever they want her to hang out with all of us I have to make up a lie of some sort so she wouldn't be able to come along.
Help? (link)
| |
One thing you gan do it to put how you feel to your friends calmly and collectively. Don't yell. Also, it sounds like you are a little bit afraid of change. That's okay, but you need to accept it. Any chance you could try to get to know her too? I have met some good people this way. Hope I helped

ok lemme get down to my question. well my last year in school i wasnt doing soo great.. i got by with Cs..what are some better habbits to get me back into getting better grades..i think my grades starting doing that because all i cared was how to get noticed better..i mean im semi-popular like i know everyone and all but i mean im not top-notch ya know? so any advice with better study habits while not going crazy over knowledge lol thank you soo much!! (link)
| |
You don't have to go over the top in studying, just study enough to get the kind of grades you want. (It helps to study right before bed and right after you wake up because it sticks things in your memory. I mostly do this for tests.)Hope I helped!

Why is it always me that ends up with the no girlfriend at the end of the year I am 14/m and I am in a wheelchair and not sure if that is the problem or what but it has always seemed I end up not with the girlfriend and don't get me wrong I have had them but the last one I had was going on for 6 monthes but she just left me for one of my best friends and it was like a shocker to me and I just went into a deep depression (link)
| |
Don't worry. This girl obviously wasn't right for you. If you want a girlfriend, show who you like that you can be just as sweet and sensitive as any other guy. Hope I helped.

Yesterday my friend wanted me to sleep over her house another day but I cou ldn't because I had a bbq to go to and she wanted to come. So I called my parents asking if they could ask my aunt so they did but she said no. Then she got pissed at me because I wanted to go even if she couldn't go. I think it is really dumb but I don't know what to do. Last week she got mad because she couldn't sleep over my house. What should I do? How should I talk to her because I want her to stop getting mad at me over stupid things. (link)
| |
My best friend is sometimes like that. Deep down, she's probably worried that you won't be able to spend time with her, and she's worried that she won't be your friend anymore. Tell her that your friendship is going to last and that you can do something with her later, but that this bbq is something important to you. Hope I helped!

PLZ HELP (link)
| |
Sometimes you get pimples there because your clothing is too tight or doesn't breathe. Try weraing something that is light and lets air get to your skin. Also, use lotion. Hope I helped.

I want to save myself for my wedding night. Is this generaly considered weird? At school people think its really strange and generally make fun of me for it if it comes up in conversation at all. I mean, its not something I go aorund shouting, but if someone asks what I think about sex before marriage because I'm a Christian, I will tell the truth. My friends were amazed that I went out with a guy I was completely in love with for 9 months and didnt have sex with him.
Is it that strange? And is it possible to save yourself for marriage? I've heard that it gets harder to wait as you get older, and it wasn't easy in my last relationship. (link)
| |
Hooray for you! That's not strange at all! If some guy tells you he will break up with you if you don't have sex with him, that's his problem. If you made that promise to yourself to save yourself for your husband, by all means keep that promise. Hope I helped!

Why when i'm singing, do i yawn every verse or so. I try to hold it back, but i just feel like i need to yawn. Espacially when i take a breath
If anyone knows why this happens or how to fix it, it would be a great help! (link)
| |
A yawn happens because you are not getting enough oxygen. Try to take deep breaths when you can. Hope I helped!

hi i'm a guy and one of my best friends is a girl. i'm usually the one giving the advice but this time i don't know what to do. you see we have been friends for 3 years and this year both of us have been very close. now that we are just a few days away from graduating she seems to have changed. we don't talk a lot anymore and everytime i try to strike up a conversation it seems she doesn't talk much. the thing is that i think that she's been stressed with her family life and she usually tells me everything i've had bad experiences with fake friends and she's not like that. we both care for each other a lot. and i'm just wondering if this is a faze that she's going through. we used to talk everyday but the past week we have been drifting apart. i need help!! (link)
| |
It sounds like your friend has a lot on her mind right now. You could do something nice for her, like invite he and a few friends to a movie or something. Also think about this. Have you changed in any way over the past year that might be offensive to her? Even started becoming friends with someone she doesn't like? Relationships are sensitive things. Hope I helped.

There are these kids on my bus and they talk about things that are just egregious like “hanging all of the n****r*”, “shooting all of the f*g*”, and lighting living animals on fire and watching them suffer. How can I let them know that this behavior/ talk is unacceptable? I don’t care where you come from, this behavior is insane. It makes me feel uncomfortable and upset. There is an African-American boy on my bus and it is just so terrible to watch all of this happen in front of him. These kids are about 12 to 14. I didn’t know that people could be so wicked at all, let alone so young. How can I handle this situation??
Thank you

You have to say something to them. I know that this sounds cheesy, but sometimes open confrontation will make them feel guilty enough about it to quit or at least let up a little. Most of their talk is exactly that- talk. If you're really concerned about it, talk to your bus driver or their parents. Hope I helped!

I have brown hair, about mid back with layers starting at my chin. Well, my hair on the bottom is alot darker than my top layers (because of the sun I guess?). So I was wondering if I should dye all my hair a lighter brown or just get light brown hi-lights to even out the color. Which should I get? (link)
| |
I think the natural look is best. Unless it bothers you a lot, just leave it! Hope I helped.

Hey :D well my eyes have always bothered me.. i have kinda darker brown eyes..sometimes they change to hazel but i wear black eyeliner and everything seems so dark! my eyes seem so boring i get so jealous of blue and green eyes (lighter eyes) because they stand out so much and are so much prettier! is there anyting i could do to make my eyes like stand out more or look prettier? ive heard about doin something with eyeshadow but im soo bad with makeup and stuff! and everytime i try to do the smokey eye or whatever it seems to make my eyes darker! by the way im 16/f! and i do not want colored contacts..i know i have to live with my eye color but i just want to know if there is anything i could do to make them stand out more??!
thanks so much (link)

Blue eyeshadow makes brown eyes stand out more. Just wipe a hint of it over your eyelid. It doesn't even have to be expensive. Hope I helped.

why do guys lead on girls one day then the next flirting with 3 or 4 other ones. i really thought this guy and i had something. i truly did. (link)
| |
Don't take it personally. Guys often don't give as much into a relationship as girls, and they don't think it's as serious. Move on and don't worry about him. Hope I helped.

Okay, I don't usually get nervous before performing on stage. I get really nervous during auditions, though and because I'm nervous I perform poorly and I don't get a callback. I hate knowing that I could do really well, but blowing it because I'm nervous. Does anyone know how I can overcome my audition nerves? I will rate high. Thanks. (link)
| |
Before you go to your audition, write down what you're afraid of. Like,'what if everyone laughs at me?' Then shoot it down by writing just below it, 'Everyone's nervous. Why would they laugh at ME?' Soon you'll see that most of your fears don't make any sense. Hope I helped!

If a pregnant woman is killed, it's considered a double homicide then why are abortions looked upon differently? I've heard things like when a pregnant woman is killed, it wasn't her choice but it is her choice in the case of an abortion. But, she isn't killing herself when it comes to abortions; she's doing it to another, developing human being. So that just doesn't make sense to me. (link)
| |
I agree. I think that it should be considered "killing" from the moment the baby is fertilized. I don't think it's right for a mother to legally take the life from her own baby as long as it's young enough. If anyone is trying to reason their way into abortion, I want to ask them what their heart says about it.

i have heard different things and i could use some good strong opinions (not flames, dont leave me bruised and battered) on bisexuality from a christian standpoint. i fear i may actually have to read the WHOLE Bible (LONG!) to form my own opinion to be honest. i just know alot of ppl interpret the Bible differently.
thanks in advance (link)

I believe that God made us man and woman so that we can bring children into this world and raise them in His gospel. He did not make us so that a man and a man or a woman and a woman will pair together. Just look at how our bodies are built. Hope I helped you.

I'm 13/f and have the most "gorgeous" bedroom. or so my mother says. it's all matchy matchy and looks like it could be in one of those design magazines, because my mom is an interior designer. but i don't like it, its too stuffy! What are some easy ways to update my room? i want it to be like a teen chill out place. and where can i get these things? thanx! xoxo alicia (link)
|
Talk with your mom and see if you can add a place to post pictures, like a pegboard or something. Maybe you could also talk her into letting you add a few things that would still 'go' with your room, but that you like.
A few easy things are to change the light covering, add a funky lamp, throw in some cool pillows, anythong goes. Hope I helped!
