ok i need a serious answer on this because i am really confused. i want to shave "down there" but i don't know how because last time i did i got major razor burn and itched forever and it was soooo uncofortable so i don't know how to do it and how much to take off... do you shave all of it off? please help

Use a fresh razor and shaving cream. Shave in the direction your hair grows and rinse with cold water after (this closes the pores). Then put on some lotion.

how do i congradulate a friend who made it on to a competition?

Tell her congratulations personally, or make a card.

does stretching help you grow taller?

No, it doesn't. It justs helps warm up your muscles before exercising.

Is a teacher allowed to bring down your grade because you forgot a book or a packet that you need for that class?

Yes. If it's in his/her rules to be prepared, you can get points taken off and your grade lowered.

ok so i was making cookies, then i discovered that we had no butter. can you substitute oil for butter? if you can how much oil for 1 stick [1/2 cup] of butter?
thanks

No, you can't do that. Either use margarine or go to the store.

I just started shaving down there and I get this little red razor burn bumps. It also hurts and sometimes bleeds when I shave. How do I prevent this and get rid of the bumps I already have?

Use a fresh razor and shaving cream. Shave in the direction your hair grows, and don't rush or press down to hard. Use lotion when you finish. ♥ Kristen

Hi...ummm I just started a make-up buisness where people can tell me what flavor or color of any kind of make-up (like lip stick, gloss, etc.)
and I really need the money! Does anyone know how I can get people to know about and buy my products? I'll rate high!!! Thanks!

Put ads up around school, or in local stores. Tell your friends about it, and tell them to spread it around. Good luck! Send me something else if you need more help. ♥ Kristen

my friend has this guy that she has been on and off with for what seems like forever. They both still like eachother and yesterday she wore his clothes and boxers (yeah...) to school. Should she ask him out?

Yes, she should. They already seem to be acting like a couple, why not actually be one?

Whenever I am done with school, I go to track. After track practice, I go home and get home by around 5:00. I eat dinner, then watch some shows and go on the computer (like now, but it's only to get advice!). I end up starting my homework at 9:00 PM, setting my alarm for 5:00 to finish it, sleep through my alarm, and wake up at 6:00 with no time to do my homework. I always finish it on the bus and get off the hook, but I really want to stop and do my homework right away! How can I do my homework with plenty time to spare?

I have the same problem. I can never sit down and do my homework; I always somehow put it off.
Try going into a very quiet room with no distractions at all. No people, TV, radio, or computer. Then just sit down and do it. Just think about how great it is to be able to relax for the rest of the night.
I hope I helped. Send me something if you need more help. ♥ Kristen

The feeling will go away once you get used to them. -- Kristen

I have a problem finding jeans that fit me. I am 5'3", and 85 lbs. I have tried many stores, but most of them don't even have any size 0's that fit me. I have to wear juniors b/c my legs are long, but most jeans are too baggy. The only place that I have occasional luck is Kohl's, but most of the time they don't even fit me. Does anyone know a good store for people with skinny, long legs? Or could I get custom made jeans cheaply (i'm guessing not). Please help me, I rate 5's!!!

For Glo jeans, you can get them in long. Also try Levis and Bongo. Hope I helped -- Kristen

ok here is the thing i met this guy from my BFF...i backed off bc i knew she liked him and i didnt want to let her know i liked him...yet he is 2 months older yet a grade younger so he isnt in the high school with me yet..

im tryin to think of a way to let them both know that i like him with out obvious signals

he seems to flirt or whatever with me...like he will sometimes hug me or hell run from me n make me catch him..idk

i will most likely see him 2morro @ the mall again but im not sure...any ideas on how i can pull this off?

Maybe you should just flirt back a little. Don't go overboard; just talk to him a lot, and stuff like that. I hope I helped. If not, just send me another question.
Thanks! Kristen

PS But just remember, since you both like the same guy, don't let him ruin your friendship

I complain a LOT. And half the time I do it without meaning to...and it's starting to annoy me, let alone the people around me. Any tips on how I can stop complaining, or at least reduce the amount of complaining I do?
I whinge about all sorts of things, from the weather to homework to the fact that I'm tired/hungry/bored...whatever. It sucks, I feel like I don't have a good word to say about anything any more...I want to be positive again, but how?

Think before you speak. Everytime you go to complain, bite your tongue. Or you could use a rubber band. Snap it when you go to complain.

hey i had my period and i dont wanna tell my mom. but how do i get the pads and tampons and stuff? and how do i explain it when i get cramps and stuff


help meeeee

I think you should just tell your mom. You wouldn't have to worry about hiding anything. Plus, your mom will probably be able to tell. She knows how you normally act, and will probably notice a change.

You see my best friend has this boy bofreind right. And to me she is spending way more time with him then me. Thats the only person she talks about to. I have been her best friend since the 4th grade he just been her bf for a couple of months. What should I do?

Talk to her. Tell her you miss spending time with her. Try to arrange a sleepover or shopping trip, or something just to get together and talk. Maybe she'll realize that she needs to manage her time better. Hope I helped.

i have this friiend at school that really likes this guy... but i do to what should i do? i want her to be happy and we still should be friends but i want him!!! plz help me!

I know what you're going through. Maybe you should have a talk with your friend and tell her how you feel. Also keep in mind, is this guy that important? Don't ruin a friendship over him. Send me something if you need more help, I'll answer right away ♥ Kristen

Me and my mom are just not close. I can't talk about anything to her and she has never told me that she loves me. How can we get closer? If I try and talk to her about anything, like boys or make up, she just gets this look on her face, this kinda stupid grin. And then she tells me to shut up. What do I do?

Invite her out to the movies or to dinner as your treat. Try and ask her how her day was, and talk about school. You two just need to find a common ground. Good luck! Send me a mesaage if you need anything. ♥ Kristen
