about

My name is Devin Lindsey or Vinny as my sister calls me! I am 17 years old and go to Bethel Park High school. I loooove swimming along with dancing, singing, and playing softball. I also run varsity track with is alright i supose too.


My favorite colors are orange, pink, and blue. I love to be crazy and have a good time

I've had a job working for 15+ monthes so I can answer alot about that

and I know alot about relationships in general so I can be helpful with that sometimes

especially with parent child relationships


I am a very observant person and tend to know more and care about more than most my age


and I really believe in volunteering to help animals especially at shelters. Usually its not their fault that they have to live their and its usually horrible cercimstances that bring them there and I feel terrible that they can't speak for themselves and people are too caught up in spending like $500 on this cute little pure breed puppy from a breeder just into getting rich instead of giving one of these dogs another chance at life (there are usually a handful of dogs under a year old so the i want a puppy excuse doesn't work with me)

My baby is named Lainey Mae... we got her from a shelter about 2 hours away from us when she was 7 weeks old. she is now 2 years old and the center of our family. unfortunately someone was cruel enough to go down and drug up and shoot (but luckly not kill) most of the dogs plus rob the owner (just like someone did at the shelter where I volunteer) and its now shut down

advice

i think im fat.
i got my phisical like a week ago
and im 62 inches and i weighed 104 .
i think i gained like a pound or maybe lost idk.
but is that fat for me
tell the truth ♥

no that isnt fat at all. Most people around you height (like myself) are usually atleast 110-115 pounds so you are below average which is great! so don't worry about it

im 14 years old and a few months ago (maybe like 2) i got my period and i dont have boobs. I thought that you get them before your period? im only like a 32 A and i feel werid wearing certain shits .. when do you think ill get bigger?

Well developement usually slows down alot after you get your period but that isn't always the case. Like my sister went from nothing to a 34A since she got her period so wo knows. There is no way to tell though

When they do an IV... does it hurt?

And how long does it take for you to be "put out"

-Wisdom teeth getting pulled out-


I really dont like needles..

well usually they give you meds to make you really drowsy before you get the IV and by that time you can't even really walk.. its like you are really drunk. You may remeber bits and pieces of it but you won't feel it and if yuo do you will be so drowsy that you won't care

and they don't knock you out during the surgery.. They acually just make you extremely drowsy so that you fall asleep and they numb you because gereral anestesia can be dagerous not to mention that its hard to do surgery on your teeth when there are tubes down your throat breating for yuo


i always thought they knocked you out too until the doctor told be

but anyways it only takes a few mins

On July 24, I had a procedure where I was put to sleep for over 5 hours. Since then, I have not had my period. I am now about two weeks late. I am a virgin so there is no way I could be pregnant. Does anyone know if this could be a side effect of anesthesia?

Thanks in advance.

Have you lost or gained weight? That kind of change could make you miss your period and usually i do not eat much after something like that happens. I wouldn't say its really a side effect of the anesthesia though

I've tried doing my eye make up a lot of times but it just never looks right. I love this girls eye make up right here, and I'm wondering what she did to make it look so pretty and what she used. http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k226/sexiigurl94/blahhhhh.jpg How do I get my eye make up like hers??

you put a thin line of of black eyeliner all the way around your eye. They you put purple eye shadow all the way around your eye making sure it is even. Then likely go over some of the purple on the top with blue

Okay, so I'm doing South Beach diet right now, and I'm doing 2 hours of cardio every other day. I'm about to change it to an hour of cardio every day though.
The first time I did South Beach, I lost a lot of weight pretty quickly, but I wasn't working out.
This time I'm doing the diet for an extended period of time and I waited a week before starting to work out to allow my body to get used to the lack of carbs.
With all the cardio I do, and all the dieting I'm doing, I should be losing weight, but I'm gaining it, according to the scale.
My friends say it's muscle mass that I'm gaining, but I don't know.
Is it normal to gain weight on diet and exercise? I heard somewhere you gain muscle weight first and then lose fat, but ah...I feel like I should be losing weight with everything I'm doing.
My question is should I stay on this diet if I'm gaining muscle weight and see if I don't start losing fat-weight soon, or should I try to change it up and lose weight?

Well i think you might acually be gaining weight. you will be slimming out but the mix of all that protein and your workinging out will make you gain alot of muscle. So i would only look in the mirror not at the scale because muscle weighs more than fat.

If you are intrested in losing weight i would cut out some of the protein and eat stuff like veggies and whole wheat pasta instead

I love my schedule this year, but my english class is just horrible. The teacher only gave an A to one person last year, and it was a 90%. All of my friends have said she's extremely hard, and she even told us today that she is tough. This isn't an AP or honors class either. There are 3 other english classes that I could be in. I might fill out a schedule-change form to get a different teacher. If they don't let me change teachers, what do I do??

I would wait. Maybe the challenge could be good for you? And you don't know for sure that tehre was only 1 A because i doubt you asked every single student what they got. If her class was that hard that no one could get an A then she wouldn't be teaching. I would stick with in.. Looking for the easy way out isn't going to help you in the end

do you think this would be an efficiant workout to do to lose a few pounds in about a month? i'd probably do it about 4 times a week.

:100 jumps (like jump roping without the rope lol)
:50 bicycles
(then do that again & again for 10 mins straight)
:then dancing for 10 mins to hip hop or something

do you think that that would help me burn a little bit of extra fat from my thighs and lower back/sides?

thankss

ehh not really. I would recommend going to a local video store and renting an aerobics video or tibo or something. They are much more effective and if you live by a family video you can get all workout videos for free. Also i would do some running as well

this is really random but when did the razor phones start coming out?

I am guessing you mean razr. I don't know the exact date but then only came out within the last 2 years.

I babysit my cousins who all love attention. Theres three of them and it's hard to give them all attention. What can I do to keep them busy while paying attention to all of them?

I would do crafts or baking.. something where they can all be involved and all do stuff with you at the same time. Also bring a friend or a sibling to help (if you aunt pays you tell her you wont charge her extra) so there is more attention to go around. You didn't say the ages of the kids so it is kind of hard for me to give you anymore advice. But if you would like more just drop their ages and your question in my inbox and i would be happy to help you because i babysit alot

What colors of eyeshadow would look really really good for green eyes? I tried one of those almay ones that say they are really good for green eyes, with the purple on the lid, then dark green then light green, but it makes my eye look bruised. I use these colors already- pink,silver and green sometimes a skintone/goldish color. Any advice? i rate

I would recomment either golden lady or chill out from FLIRT. They sell them at cools. They are really pretty shimmery eye shadows. I have green eyes too.. i use those alng with other golds/browns

My dad was in a bad car accident a few days ago and he's still in the hospital. The doctors say he's stable but he's in a...coma. Which I don't even understand because how can he be stable if he's in a coma?


Well I'm supposed to be moving out in like, 10 days because I'm starting college and I'm moving 4 hours away. The thing is though, I don't want to leave my mom and my sister if my dad isn't conscious by then. I don't know what to do because I'm so scared about my dad and I don't want to leave.


Classes don't start until the 30th but move in day is in 10 days. I don't have to move in by moving day but I know I have to be there by the first day of classes. I don't even know if I'm going to be able to pay attention during class knowing that my dad is in the hospital. I just don't know what to do, I'm so confused.

That is a tough one because really you can't afford to miss either one. Even when he is in a coma he can still be in a coma.. it just means all of his organs are functioning and besides the coma he is fine. What i would do is go to school but stay on call and have a bag to go home or something incase he gets worse. if he is in stable condition he has a good chance of being alright and its not worth missing college unless things get worse

Chances are something will happen either better or worse within theose 10 days but for all you know he could be in a coma for the next 30 years. just pray for him and spend time with him while you are here

just don't skip him getting worse for school. because that would be horrible

ok i'm 16/f & i haven't been to the gyno yet. my period has been regular since i was 11 [when i first got it] & i haven't had sexual intercourse or anything. i haven't had a UTI or anything either & i was wondering when would be the best time to go?? i know everyone says you should go juss to be careful, but since i haven't really had a problem in that area, i don't know when to start. would 18 be ok or what??

thanks!!

well there is no need to go until you are 18 unless you are having some sort of problem or are sexual active. If you want to go now there is no problem with that but it is just fine for you to wait

I want to move to America when i am 18, to go to university. But i'm so confused. I've heard of the green card that you have to get but how do you get it and what else do you have to do ?
Thanks

it depends on where you are coming from. I am guessing England so it should be fairly easy. Your first main step is getting accepted in. I am not sure of the complete process but i believe you ahve to apply for a visa here and what not. If you are coming from somewhere where your first language is not english you maybe have to go to highschool here first. That is what they acually did to my math teacher because when she came here at 18 she only knew spanish well and not really english so she had to do 1 year of highschool if she wanted to get into the college of her choice

I'll come out clean. I'm chinese and about 5 feet. Does anyone know the average boob size for a mandrian chinese girl from the south? What's the american average? I know I'll never be the american average, but just wondering. I wear a size 34A. Just a few months ago, I got bigger, which I was happy! I thought I'll never leave 32A. Help if you can. I'm 13 too.

the average is suppose to be a 32B for americans but today i think it is much bigger. My sister is 13 and she is also a 34A and comes from a very chesty family so you have nothing to worry about. You will grown don't worry

Today, I did one of the workouts in they had in Seventeen magazine. It was the first time I did it. After, I felt kind of shaky and exhausted. I felt like "woozy". Is there something wrong?

that means you weren't hydrated enough and you overworked yourself

My sister is 13. This entire summer she hasnt gone to any of here friends house or even have them come over our house. But before the summer she had friends over every single weekend. she hasnt gone anywhere with the family either.

She spends every second of her day on the computer Seriously. Myspace to be exact. She has ten different myspaces && they are all of famous people from the disney channel. && she talks to people on there like she knows them in person. She has over 700 friends on each one. && she talks to every single one of them. I made me a fake myspace && made it so i was a famous person from disney && she even talks to me. but she doesnt know its me. And im not telling her.

My sister stays up till 430 - 530 in the morning. && then she goes to bed && sleeps till noon then gets straight on the computer. Yesterday morning my dad came downstairs and saw her on the computer. && told her to get to bed now. She got aggravated && yelled at him saying quit treating me like a damn child. She came in my room because i had to work & she goes why do you guys not let me stay on the computer & why do i have to get the computer right now? Its the summer and i should be able to spend all day on the computer.

Today our aol is not working && she is flipping out & yelling at everyone telling us that we better fix the computer before we go to bed. I have my own computer && my own cable box so i can use the computer. She is telling me that if she cant use the family computer i can't use my computer & that i better let her use mine if the family somputer doesnt start working.



My question is How do i get her off the computer && how is telling her to go to bed at 430 in the morning treating her like a child?


----------------------------

Do not tell me to block myspace & make a password on the computer. we already have blocked & put parental control on the computer. We have a password on the computer.

Dont tell me to warn her that school is starting in two weeks && she is going to have trouble waking up when school starts. She doesnt care.

&& she has plenty of friends But alot of them dont have internet access so she doesnt go over their houses.



Any help would be wonerful
:)

I think you should leave her alone. It is her problem and she will learn once school starts and she comes home insanely tired. As for myspace don't worry she will grow tired of it we all do

The only issue you both have is you are doing something illegal and something that is against myspace terms. You are not aloud to act like a celebrity or even make a celebrity fan site without written permission for the person you are making it of.

She is still young and she isn't going to listen to anything you have to say about her being on the computer so there isn't anything you can really do. But maybe you can persuade her to get onto a better site than myspace
