Hey everyone, I love music and am constantly downloading songs to my iPod. Unfortunately, Limewire, the downloading site I usually use, is ILLEGAL. I know many people use this site, but I don't want to get in trouble with anyone and want to do the right thing. Since I listen to so much music, iTunes is very expensive!
Does anyone know of any website where I can download music LEGALLY for FREE?
Thanks in advance,

The only places you can download music for free is from a website which is actually run by the owner of the music, when they offer it as such. Lots of small, independent bands do this, because the live gigs pay a lot more than CD sales and putting the music out there for free is like advertising. You won't usually see bigger-name bands doing this, with the exception of Radiohead.
Bottom line is, if you're looking for popular, current music, you will not find it legal and free. That's a simple fact.

I'm getting a pitbull, and i want to make her tough. Deffently not for fighting reasons, for protection. I was wondering how i could make her tough and muscular like i've seen some pitbulls. thanks (link)
|
The previous answer was a good one; first and foremost, the dog must be loyal and protective of YOU, and the best way to do this is to see to it that the dog has every reason to love you. If there are others in your household that you also want to dog to protect, make sure they also feed and care for the dog, giving it plenty of affection.
As fas as training it to be a "tough" dog, that's something that is best left to experts. The reason is that you want to make absolutely sure that you maintain control over the dog, that it knows to give clear signals when it perceives a threat, and that it knows what a threat actually is. Pit bull attacks are very much in the public consciousness right now, and the dogs do not enjoy a good reputation. If there is ever a legal problem concerning your dog - that is, if it attacks someone and they sue - you can probably count on losing the case. Training your dog properly can help to ensure that this doesn't happen.

My digital camera has volcanic ash in it (don't ask, it was a camping trip) and now it won't work. The kind of camera I have is the kind where the lens in hidden inside the camera, but when you turn it on it appears. Well know, it will appear then (almost) go back in again. If that makes sense.
Is there a place I can take it to get that dust out. I really miss using my camera =(
Thank you (link)
|
Volcanic ash is essentially powdered glass. It's about the nastiest, grittiest, most damaging substance you can get into sensitive equipment. Your camera is probably toast, unfortunately.
If you take it to a camera repair shop, they MIGHT be able to fix it - for about the same cost as replacing it, most likely, and if I were them I wouldn't offer any guarantees. So, since you're probably going to have to replace it anyway, you might try taking it apart yourself and blowing the dust out with compressed air. Then, unless you're very very very lucky, go out and buy a new camera.

It's difficult to know what's going on in his head, but his actions are certainly not those of a loving father. For that matter, the actions of his family do not indicate that they want to have anything to do with the child either.
It seems to me that the time is due for decisive action on a number of levels. In order to safeguard this baby's future and ensure that you have a chance at happiness, a few things need to be put on the table and brought to a conclusion.
(1) Does your baby's father intend to BE a father? Does his family intend to be this baby's family? You need definite answers to those questions. If he doesn't intend to have anything to do with the baby, arrange to have his parental rights legally terminated. If he does choose to be a father, there are two investments he will need to make: time and money. There is no middle ground, not when it comes to raising a child. He is either involved, or he is not. And if he does not intend to be involved with his child, then he is not involved with you either. End of story.
(2) It's a little difficult to tell who you suspect of messing around or who's calling you restricted or much of anything else - please try to write more clearly (separate sentences would help)! But, it's clear you are unsatisfied with your current relationship. I will say this - the guy you're with may be older and boring, but it would seem that he's willing to help you raise a baby that isn't his. Mr. Young and Exciting, the baby's actual father, wants nothing to do with it. Who's the real man in this situation, and who's the irresponsible child? If you're unsatisfied with your current relationship, then work on making it better - or, make the decision to end it.
Bottom line is, you need to make some decisive moves. Decide now whether you want a reluctant "father" in your baby's life. Decide now what kind of man you want a relationship with. The longer you put these decisions off, the worse off you'll be. You are a mother now, and you have a responsibility to your child to take charge of your life.

I am looking for advice on a rape victim, keep the kid or not?
16 YEAR OLD GIRL.
Really, it's not the child's fault, they didn't ask to be killed because they were concieved wrong right?
But then again, having the kid will be a daily reminder, and ruin her future.
WHAT WOULD YOU DO?
ANY ADVICE?
Thank you for the time!
(link)
|
This is an extremely personal question. In the end, it is the rape survivor's choice. Even if you don't believe it legally SHOULD be her choice, the fact remains that it IS her choice. I'm not going to get into whether it should be or not; that's not what this website is for.
She has essentially three options when it comes to the child:
(1) Adoption.
(2) Keep it.
(3) Abortion.
Of the three, it seems to me that the first is the most compassionate insofar as the child is concerned, and it may also offer the survivor some comfort to know that from this terrible event, there was at least a new life that need not be tainted by it. The problem with keeping the child, aside from the obvious emotional trauma to the mother, would be that eventually he's going to ask "Who is my Daddy?" and that question will have a terrible answer.
Insofar as the third option... once again, it is her choice. It is not a "clean" choice - there are emotional consequences. But there will be emotional consequences no matter what she may choose.

I like this guy lets call him "Phil"(random name). I have a crush on him, he's at my new school. He plays guitar, is short, but cute, and luvs the same music i do(fob, mcr, p!atd). So today he sits next to me and my friend Tori for lunch. He says I remind him of his ex girlfriend. Now, from what I know from talking to him, he only has had one girlfriend and she and him were together 3 weeks ago, but he asked her to go to homecomeing with him, she said no and she brokeup with him. He was evidently head-over-heels for her.
FYI: I have a short attention span. So i just hear him say creepy and point at me. So i turned my head and said 'What's wrong with me being creepy?' He threw his hands up in surrender and said "I said it's just creepy how much you are like my ex-girlfriend"
He's SO nice and cute! There's a Sady Hawkin's dance comin' up, so i was wondering what do u think he meant by that I'm like hisex, is that good or bad given the past. (link)
|
I think that before you consider dating him, you need to clarify exactly what he sees in you that so reminds him of her, and make sure he understands - REALLY understands - that you are not version 2.0 of his previous girlfriend, but that you are an individual person who may be very different in some ways than the girl he dated before.
If he doesn't get this through his head, then he's going to be thinking of her whenever he's with you. That can't be what you want.

i was wondering what people thought about student and teacher in a relationship. what do you think about it? (link)
|
In the vast majority of cases, it is unethical and sometimes even illegal for a student and a teacher to become romantically involved. Such a relationship creates a situation where the teacher can no longer be objective, might be suspected of favoritism, and puts a major strain on the professional relationship. There is simply too much conflict of interest.
The only time when I would say that it's permissible is when (a) both parties are adults, and (b) the instruction is for personal rather than professional reasons. No one's going to particularly care if you're dating the guy who teaches your biweekly pottery class that you're taking just for fun.
Most learning institutions have very strict rules against professors dating students. It's just not a good idea.

i really like this boy we are really good friends.. theres sort of an age diffrence between us.. well 3 years. i wanna ell him so badly but everyone tells me i shouldnt.. cause then itl ruin our relationship... i dont know what to do i liked him since last year and im so tired of keeping it in .. i really wanna tel him but im scared he might not act or be the same maybe not even talk to me please help ? (link)

It really makes a difference what your ages actually are, not just how far apart. If he's 17 and you're 14, I'd call that an insurmountable difference, and you'd better just wait. If he's 20 and you're 17, that can be done, though you might have one or two issues with it. If he's 23 and you're 20, then it's no big deal at all.
I'm going to guess by the tone of your question that you're around 13-15 years old. That being the case, I recommend you keep it to yourself. He really won't be able to do anything about it, even if he returns those feelings in some way, because such a relationship would be frowned upon (and, in some states, it's actually illegal). I suggest you remain "really good friends", and I also recommend that you keep in mind that you may never be anything besides that. Don't close your mind to other possibilities.
Hopefully, in a few years, you'll be able to tell him how you feel and he will be in a position where he can return whatever feelings he may have. If you're 15 or younger, though, now is just not the time.

Christopher Columbus didn't DO anything! He DID NOT discover America! Its should be Rosa Parks day BECAUSE SHE ACTUALLY DID SOMETHING!!!!!!! Does anyone know any websites that I could go research that kind of stuff? To proove that he didn't do anything and that it should be Rosa Parks day?!!??!!!
(link)
|
One can find a website to "prove" just about anything. Ever heard of Dihydrogen Monoxide?
http://www.dhmo.org/
If you really want some impressive research regarding Christopher Columbus and/or Rosa Parks, you're going to have to get up and go to an actual library, check out some authoritative books, and do some reading. You need references which don't end in "dot-com". Be aware that you're facing an uphill fight if you're actually going to try to convince the federal government to change the holiday, and you might want to have a plan for how you actually intend to do it. For instance, will you be addressing the joint houses of Congress yourself, or do you have a committee to do it?
In any event, it may interest you to know that Columbus did, in fact, make a very significant discovery: he was the first to determine that the North Magnetic Pole, as indicated by the compass, does not coincide with the North Geographic Pole, which is the axis about which the Earth rotates. This was a vital piece of information for the science of navigation, but since it doesn't sound as cool as "discovered America", no one remembers him for it.
Furthermore, I would argue that anyone who was willing to board a fragile wooden ship back in the late 1400s and sail into virtually unknown waters was, in fact, "doing something". It was a courageous and noteworthy deed, even if he wasn't the true discoverer of a new land, and even if he treated the natives of that land despicably.
As for Rosa Parks, I will never say a word against her or her own courage, and she certainly deserves to be commemorated. I submit that she deserves better than a bank holiday that's more of an excuse to have furniture sales than anything else.

My boyfriend is being ajerk. i really care about him but i think he might be getting tired of me. we have a four day weekend this weekend and i left for california. all week before i asked him again and again to call me, just because i knew i was going to go nuts being caught with my family that long. he hasn't called once so far. we may stay longer than we originally planed which would mean i would miss some school. he'll notice if i'm not there. i'm really tempted not to tell him that i'm not going to be there, and instead tell his friend whom i think has a crush on me, and i think he knows it. i really care about him, but it's really making me mad that he hasn't called. i don't know if i should aggrivate the situation by involving the other guy. (link)
|
Involving the other guy just to get a shot in at your jerk boyfriend isn't fair to the other guy. Don't use him like that - he's done nothing wrong.
If this is the only "jerkish" thing that your boyfriend has done lately, I'd cut him some slack. It's a little thoughtless, sure, but it's not really THAT bad. And frankly, if I were him, I might be thinking, "She can't go for four days without me calling her? Damn, talk about clingy! I'm not sure I can handle a relationship where the girl is so needy... I'd better back off before she starts expecting me to call every night."
Now, if this is one of many things he's been doing lately that makes you question his feelings for you, then it's time for the two of you to have a talk about it. Sometimes, guys honestly don't notice when they're becoming distant or distracted, and they just need a gentle reminder not to take you for granted.
Of course, it's also possible that he really IS growing bored with the relationship, in which case you still need to have a talk about whether it needs revitalizing, or ending. And if it does end, make sure you don't go running to his friend with the crush on you for the wrong reasons.

Dear Xenolan,
First up, I would like to say that I really rate your column -you have given me in the past (and consistently give everyone else) excellent advice on all topics.
The topic which concerns me most, however is dating and the whole complicated game which is romantic love. Basically, I am suffering (right now, intensely but all the time at a lower level) from the feeling that I am unloveable, that men (I am 24/f) barely notice me, unless they want to abuse me. Let me hasten to except older men(ie n their fifties and sixties) who by and large treat me with both kindness and respect). But with men with whom I want to be sexual, it's a different matter. Take just now. To cut a long story short, two family friends(both in their late fifties) have been staying with me for a while, and last week, their nephew(27) came over. We got on pretty well, so I thought, and on Tuesday he emailed them to ask if he could come over again. I (perhaps presumptuously) thought that I could have been at least a strong contributory factor in this decision(he's friendly with, but not all that clos to them). So today he comes over at twelve noon, stays all day, and seems to be gving off mixed signals. I think he's quite shy, so that could be all it is. We sat very close together while watching T.V.(as we did last week), but when he left at night, he hugged his aunt and uncle much more warmly than he did me(which was not the case last week). True enough, they're emigrating in a couple of weeks, and he might not see them again for a while, but I was still a little hurt. Plus, he didn't ask for any of my contact details. Should I just write it off, or should I risk asking his uncle for his email address. I just feel quite hurt. All my life I've felt barely likeable(at least by people of my own age) and this seems to be borne out by others' treatment of me. I would so much like a loving, caring partner, for sexual as well as emotional reasons, but I am all too aware that my very need may be what scares men off. So, any ideas?
Sorry I've rattled on so much-it's one in the morning, my time, and I'm rather unhappy. I guess I'd invested a lot in this weekend(stupidly, and only semi-consciously)and feel disaapointed that another promising situatuion seems, yet again, to have come to nothing.
If you manage to read this far, thanks for your time! (link)

First, I am gratified that I've been able to help you before; it is good to know that I've been able to make a few lives a little better! Thank you for your kind words.
Regarding the matter at hand, I'm going to need to have to make a few guesses and say a few things that might sound almost cliche, but there may also be some truth to it. As always, I can't offer guarantees, and I may be off-base. What I suggest you do is to take the advice I offer and discuss it with friends or someone else close to you, to see if someone who knows you personally might concur.
There are some clues to what I think is going on based on what you say, for instance:
- "I am suffering from the feeling that I am unlovable"
- you seem to attract only abusers
- you are afraid that your need for a caring and loving partner is scaring men off.
These statements, and the general tone that I'm reading into your question, lead me to two ideas, which I'll describe one at a time:
(1) I think that you have a poor self-image, and that this is noticeable to others.
To put it in simplest terms, if you're convinced you're unlovable, that's what makes it so. Very few men (or women, for that matter) will want to start a relationship with someone who has a low opinion of themselves. It is emotionally exhausting to spend time with such a person, especially as one gets closer to them. As an example, imagine a man and woman in a relationship, where she feels she is unworthy of love (and incidentally, this sort of thing freely crosses gender lines!).
Essentially, he's placed in a position where he must do twice the work just to keep things afloat. She will need constant reassurance that he loves and cares for her, but she will never really believe any of it. Anything that he does for her that's special or romantic will essentially go unappreciated, as she will think she does not deserve it. She will constantly worry that at any time, he could find someone else and leave her by the roadside - and it's that very attitude that could make it happen!
This is what men will fear when they see a woman who gives off vibes of self-loathing (and it shows like a neon sign!). What men want in a relationship is to be appreciated, and they know that a woman who cannot love herself will never be able to value someone else's love. The only men such a woman will attract are those who WANT her to despise herself so that they can dominate her; in other words, abusers. I think that this is what you are experiencing. In order to find a decent man who will be willing to give his affection, you MUST find some way to see yourself as worthy to receive it.
(2) I think that you have mistaken ideas about what most men want from a relationship.
Most men (most people), in my opinion, have a decent nature and want to do right by others. A lot of men, particularly men your age, want very much to find someone to love and care for. The desire you have for an exclusive, mutually loving relationship is NOT a scary thing to most men! It is also what they want!
If you feel that men are looking for short-term satisfaction and cheap thrills, then odds are those are the ones who will come calling for you. The better kind are out there - they outnumber their less mature peers, as a matter of fact. Seek and ye shall find.
Of course, I don't know what's really going on with this fellow you spent some time with recently. It may be that he was waiting for YOU to show some sign of interest, and whatever signs you were giving were too subtle to notice. Maybe he also has some problems with his sense of self. My instinct tells me that you probably DID have something to do with his wish to come over again. Maybe he didn't give you as warm a departing hug because he WANTED to more than he did last time - and felt self-conscious because of it!
I think that you should give this guy another chance; but first, you need to shake up your own attitude a bit. It isn't about "self-esteem"; that's a FALSE confidence that is both superficial and insincere, and it's worse than genuine self-doubt. What you need to do is find REAL reasons to consider yourself in a better light. First and foremost, remember that EVERYONE has inherent worth; as a 24-year member of the Everyone Club, that means you do too. Find things about yourself that you DO like, and find things that you don't - but which are unimportant. And if you discover things about yourself that really are negative qualities, see about changing them for the better. To be really cheesy about it, give your soul a makeover.
Maybe this guy can be part of it. Go ahead and ask for his E-mail address, and take a chance on him. If it doesn't work out, though, don't take it personally; sometimes it doesn't click.
Bottom line: One who feels unworthy of love will never be able to receive it, no matter how much others might want to give it to them. Whatever it takes for you to get over this self-doubt, you must do, or you will always be lonely.
Oh, one more thing - you might consider posting this question to my wife, Sabine. She has a powerful wisdom about this sort of thing.

I just took a bath, and I noticed that I had a couple pimples mixed in with my pubic hair..
I know that pimples are just hair folicles that grease and crap get stuffed into, so I might just be over-reacting. It's also been itching down there a lot more than usual, if that makes a difference.
I just got off my period, and I just started school last week, and we've been doing loads of stuff in gym that makes me really sweaty.
Does anyone know if I might have an infection or something, or knows that I'm just over-reacting?
Any advice is very appreciated! =9

It might be a skin condition known as "Prickly Heat" or miliaria (not to be confused with "malaria" which is the tropical disease spread by mosquitoes). Here is a link to the Wikipedia page on the subject:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miliaria
Notice the line down near the bottom, where it says that frequent and thorough cleaning is usually a better alternative to medication. Try using an antibacterial soap and/or an exfoliant. Even if it's not prickly heat, it doesn't hurt to get a little cleaner!

Ok, so the school i go to has a bathroom with stall doors that big spaces where the hinges are and people can see through them at you. Obviously when they built them, they just made the doors like that. But anyways, me and all my friends are really self concious about that. What should we do? (link)
|
You might try writing a (politely phrased) letter to the school principal, asking if it would be possible to glue up rubber strips to the sides of the doors so that that gap would be covered. If you really want to make it happen, do a little research for him and figure the cost of the weatherstripping and the glue to hold it on by making a trip to Home Depot. You'll also want to put in there something about how you understand that a school budget is always tight, but that this would be a small thing that would do a lot to increase the comfort level of the students. You could even offer to do the actual labor yourselves, though there may be district rules that forbid that.
Maybe you'll get a reply to the effect that nothing can be done. In that case, the previous responder's suggestion regarding jackets might be your best bet.

my friend(Rachel) and I both like the same guy. (this guy is our Best Guy friend)It is really hard to like the same person. Like at our school band BBQ he was there and i flirted w/ him and Rachel got angry(she didn't show it but she kinnda avoided me @ the time) And then once almost everyone left(except him,rachel and i) it was like 10:00pm. And i was asking him questions NOT trying to flirt but just talking. And she kind of stormed off and drove home. Then about 10 min later i drove home. I talked to her and she says she doesn't care if he goes out w/ me. But it was SOOOO obvious she was angry when i flirted w/ him.
I don't want to make her angry and 'dump' me as a friend. But then again i don't want to stop liking him(he's like the perfect guy!). WHAT CAN I DO THAT WON'T MAKE HER MAD BUT I CAN STILL LIKE THE GUY????
Any help i greatly apprieciated! Sorry if it's confusing.(just tell me) (link)

Well, you don't need me to tell you what a difficult situation this is. There's a lot of potential for hurt feelings and ruined friendships, and even if everyone has the best of intentions, things may end up going terribly wrong.
There's one person who hasn't weighed in so far, and that's the Guy (who I will refer to as "Guy", for lack of another name). Does he have any idea of the drama going on between you two? Does he know that one or both of you have feelings for him beyond friendship? Is he able to return that affection for either of you, if it were offered?
I think that the only way you're going to get through this with all relationships intact is to get everything out on the table. Start with you and Rachel - it's clear that she's got a problem with the idea of the two of you linking up, but are you sure it's because she likes him too? Maybe it's because she's afraid that if you and Guy hook up, she'll be excluded (and she's right, to a certain extent). The two of you need to sit down and have an honesty session, with no secrets and no attempts to gloss over the situation. Figure out how you each feel about him and about whether your friendship can survive it if one of you ends up dating him.
Once you've got things figured out between the two of you, get Guy involved for an honest conversation between the three of you. What you say to him depends on what you figure out with Rachel. Consider, though, that what he has to say might not fit in very well with what you two figure out in advance. For instance, it may be that you really like him, but he has eyes for Rachel. Or he might not be interested in either of you in that way. Or he might really like one of you, but feel that he can't pursue it because of what it will do to the friendship between you.
No matter what happens, it's going to take some emotional maturity and good character to get through this with everyone still happy in the end. My guess is that one of you, either you or Rachel, is going to end up dealing with the fact that your good friend is dating the guy you want.
It sucks, but unfortunately, C'est la vie.

ok...this is kinda lame...but whatever...I really like this kid that has been my friend for a while...and I haven't had my first kiss yet...I really want it with him...but its like he doesnt notice that I like him...how do I get him to notice that I really do like him?? and what do I do after he notices this??Thanks for the help...
For the guys answering...What would make you notice a girl that has been your friend for a long time?? (link)
|
If the two of you have known each other and been friends since you were kids, then that's the image of you he has in his head. Essentially, if you want that to change - if you want him to start seeing you as potential girlfriend material, or even feel attracted to you on that level, then you need to make it happen.
Be forewarned, though, that "friend" may be all he's ever prepared to be for you. He can't make himself have feelings that simply aren't there. There's nothing wrong with trying to get him to notice you in a new way, but it's a bad idea to try and force the issue. If he just wants to be your friend, then let him be; consider how you would feel if your positions were reversed. And even if that IS how he feels, it might not always be that way.
But go ahead and try it! First, though, you need to get him interested and perhaps thinking about the idea. The best way to do this is to make a change in your look (hey, guys are guys, and most of them are visually-oriented when it comes to girls). What you want to do is move away from young, childish things and into an older, more sophisticated image. If you keep your hair in pigtails, lose them; if you don't wear makeup, start. Do NOT start showing excessive skin or slathering the makeup on your face; you're going for sophisticated, not slutty! Keep it real, and keep it YOU, because if it works then you'll be sticking with it for a while!
Now, flirt! Sit a little closer to him than you used to. Touch his hand now and then, get caught staring at him and turn away with a shy smile, linger a little more when giving him a friendly hug.
This is all just preparation, though. The thing is, if he is a good and trusted friend, the honest approach is what will work best for you in the end. Once you've worked on getting his attention for a while, get him alone somehow and turn the conversation toward kissing. Mention that you've never kissed anyone. Move close to him and speak in low tones so that he must move close to you in order to hear. If he doesn't get the hint, then you might simply need to come out and say it:
"You know Brian (assuming his name is Brian), I've always hoped my first kiss would be with someone I really knew well, and who I really like and trust. And maybe you've noticed, I've been kind of trying to get your attention lately, and... well, I think you know where I'm going with this..."
At this point, it'll either happen, or it won't. Good luck to you!

where and what has kendra wilkinson modeled for? (link)

It took me exactly five seconds to do a Google search on "Kendra Wilkinson" and find hundreds of references with all the information you might want. My advice to you is to try that.

Okay so ive been dating the same guy for two months and everything is great, we rarely fight and if we do its a stupid little arguement. But anyways hes a sweetheart and he does anything for me. Well, to the point we've done "things" and i feel like he does things for me but i dont really do it in return. I would i just dont know what to do. Im new with this kind of stuff i havent really done it before and hes really experienced(hes 2.5 years older than me.) I dont want him to think that im a little kid and not ready for it. But then again he hasnt said anything to me really or asked for anything.
So advice please..... (link)
|
If you're still at the point where you're speaking of sexual acts in terms of "things" and "stuff", then I tend to think you are NOT actually ready. just as an example, if you can't come right out and say "oral sex", then you aren't really ready to have it.
As long as you use words like "things" and "stuff", I have no idea what you're actually talking about, and cannot give you reasonable advice - and neither can anyone else.

hi im sam and im 11. i shaved my arms and i realllyyyyyyyyyy regret it!!!!! how can i make the hair grow back normall like befor!! please help me and awnser this!! do i wax or what? (link)
|
Please be aware that this site has an age restriction of 13 and up. However, I will answer your question, because it has a simple, one-word answer:
Time.
There is no way to make hair grow faster; if there were, there would be a lot fewer bald people. All you can do is wait. It shouldn't take long.

Ok so if you have sex in the jacuzzi, wouldnt water go up some hole? And doesnt the sperm swim around.. o_o
This might sound stupid but its major curiousity right now! (link)

Answers:
(1) Yes, the water would get into any exposed orifices. But it wouldn't likely be a problem.
(2) Any sperm that got into the water would be rapidly killed by the chlorine. This doesn't mean it's an effective form of birth control - sperm that was released inside the woman's body would remain alive and viable.
One more thing: if you do have sex in a hot tub, it should be cleaned before anyone uses it again. That's just common courtesy.

I'm a 17 year-old girl and I'm at my first job (I'm not going to name it). I love working at this place because the people I work with are fun, it's right by my house (which is good, since I can't drive yet), the rules aren't strict and I've gotten used to everything.
Here's the problem, I'm about to start my senior year in high school AND I'm going to be getting my driver's license in about a month. When I graduate, I'd LOVE to move out and get an apartment. When I get my license, I'd LOVE to get a car. Thing is, I don't get many hours which means I don't get that much money. I've tried talking to my boss about it, but he says that we have a certain amount of hours we're allowed to give out each day/week and when we opened (a couple months ago) we overhired.
I need more shifts and more money, but I can't get any! I've been looking at other job locations, but none of them seem as appealing and I REALLY don't want to switch jobs because I love my current one so much. But the car and apartment are VERY important to me and I can't make that happen unless I figure something out.
Any thoughts/ideas? Please help me out on this because I have NO idea what I should do. (link)

One thing you can do is work to become such an outstanding employee at the job you have that they would be fools not to give you additional hours. However, this may not work; it's clear that the boss likes the situation as it is (and why wouldn't he? He has no problem filling the schedule) and if it's a high-turnover job, they may not care overly much for individual performance.
You can get an additional job. In such a case, you'll need to work it out with both employers insofar as when you are available for each of them. If your current boss is unhappy with that, you should point out that you asked for additional hours and you were turned down, so you have to make your money somewhere. Perhaps the second job won't be as enjoyable, but since you have one that you DO like a lot, maybe that won't be such a big deal.
If you want to move out and get that apartment and car, you're going to need more money and more work. If your current employer can't provide it, then you need to find someone who will, and that's the bottom line.
