i saw one of those, "shoot og of the targets to win a free gift!" pop-up's. i shoot the apple Macbook, and it takes me to this:
http://gifts.freepay.com/Default.aspx?N=1&P=240

is this for real? i think its one of those things when you reccomend people, they joint, and he more people you get to join, the better your prize. is this real? because nomally i'd close these pop-ups, but im desperately in need of a new laptop..and a macbook sounds very good to me :D

This is a scam. What they do is take your e-mail and send you Spam. THen , they send junk to your house. It's not worth it DON"T GIVE ANY INFORMATION OUT!

okay so i printed out a monthly calendar for the whole schoolyear (september - june). i was just curious, what's the point of using the monthly calendar? last year, i didn't have / use one (i just wrote it all in my agenda. like if i were to have a test in english on friday, monday - wednesday, i would write "English - Test Friday" and then on thursday i'd write, "English Test Tomorrow!" so i could see it at a glance that way).

(1) i know they're used for keeping track of assignments, due dates, other commitments, etc., but do you think i should just wait until i get busy to see how it works?

(2) isn't it tedious to have to update BOTH your agenda and your monthly calendar everyday?

(3) what are the advantages of using a monthly calendar BESIDES being able to see things "at a glance" ?

Well not its not about 'glancing' it's just waking up in the morning checking to see if you have anything planned and then moving on. Then, if something comes up like a dentist appntmt. you can just add it in. I personally, prefer a planner that can fit into my purse. I'm 14, so i'm not that busy, but i have school play performences, school play auditions, club meetings etc. Thats my personal planner. THen the school provides a planner too, but i use that one for my assighnments-homework-. I would suggest trying to look at the monthy calender everyday. If that doesn't do anything, try a planner.

Okay, I love my boyfriend. We have been dating for ten months now, and something happened in the first two or three months we were dating. An ex-boyfriend of mine would call really like at night, once my boyfriend (Chase) and I had gotten off the phone. I never expected him to call, nor did I ever say call back.. We talked for a good 2-3 hours and then we'd get off the phone. He would end the conversation by saying "I Love You". and I said it back.

I told my boyfriend about this, and we nearly broke up over it.. It entirely broke my heart- but we're trying to sort through things now, but there's still a problem.

I cannot forget about what I did to him. Everytime we laugh, or have a good time- I think about how I have hurt him. I truly don't know how to forget about the past and move on..


Any Advice?

I think that now its time for you to forgive yourself. Your boyfriend did, so why can't you? Your boyfriend OBVIOUSLY still wants to be with you after that so why can't you forgive yourself. I think you need to look deeper within yourself to figure that out. Maybe you still have feelings for your ex. What you need to do is prove to your boyfriend. YOu don't have to but just so you can forgive your self. Be an amazing girlfriend and just learn to except the fact that you did something stupid and that you can learn from it.

I'm 15 years old (turning 16 next month) I'm about 5'7 and I weigh around 150 lbs. Am I overweight? What are some good exercises that I could do to lose weight? I really want to flatten my stomach, tone my arms and legs, especially my thighs and tone my butt. And what are some things I could use to motivate me?

http://www.mypyramid.gov/mypyramid/index.aspx

Put in all your information to get a diet that you should fallow.


http://www.nhlbisupport.com/bmi/

to calculate your BMI-Body Max Index.- Your normal weight.

But try crunches for abs, weight lifting for arms, running for legs. Good luck. DO like if I work out for an hour then i get ONE cookie. It's okay to have fatty foods as long as you have them in moderation or a little, barly any everyday.

Ok, here gos.
My Bestfriend "Jess" go dumped by her boyfriend "Frank"... for his Ex girlfriend... like a month ago or something.

"Jess" still really likes him. She talks about him all the time!

When they were going out, he was tellin me things like: "I really like you!" and "If I wasnt going out with 'jess' I'd totally go out with you."

I didn't even like him then...
But I really like him now!

But i know if i go out with him, "Jes" will get really angry.

what to do?

P.S: Sorry this is so long!

THis is completly up to you. But this is where you need to make the disition. Is this guy worth it? I understand that you really like him, but how much do you care about your BFF. If you are a good friend you'll say no to the guy. Okay, he's not the 'one' right? so why loose your BEST friend? I'm not trying to make the disition for you, but you need to think is it worth it? Is he still even interested in you? Honestly, this is a huge disition. but what it comes down to it, whos more importand this guy or jess?

i just got a haircut and its really short. Its like an inch under my ears but i still think its really short. I have heard that guys dont like girls with short hair and im going back to school soon so i dont want to look like a boy. Is it true that guys dont think girls with short hair are hot? Thank you :)

It doesn't matter, it's all about how you own it. Confidence is everything, even if you do't like it, don't show it! confidence is hot! And look at celebs. Rihana hada boy hair cut and she was still considered 'hott'

So, I have a Nintendo Wii and have been looking for new Nintendo Wii games for it. I was asking for some suggestions for the best Wii games available and the Nintendo Wii Fit was mentioned.

Can anyone give me their reviews about the Nintendo Wii Fit and if it was worth the money? Should I buy the Nintendo Wii Fit, especially for exercise purposes? What do you think about the Nintendo Wii Fit--good idea or bad?

I am fairly inactive and am wanting to lose some weight. Is the Nintendo Wii Fit acceptable for this to start with or is it a waste of money?

Yes, its worth it and it's sooo much fun! I lost 1 pound in 15 minutes on that game. I enjoyed it. My grandma's husband lost a total or almost 50 pounds from it. It may take some time for you to see your results but it's a blast and it's deffinetly worth it!

This weekend I have to go and have blood work to see if i have it.
If i do is there anything that i wont be able to do anymore?
Is hybo-thyroid a bad thing?
What does it mean and how bad is it?

Research a little, look on google, your best bet is to call your doctor. Your parents don't have to know. Just be like I have some questions about hybothyroid. And ask exactly what you asked on here, the internet can only tell you so much and can exadurate the truth

Okay so I work at Subway and have for about three weeks. Lately people have been really mean to me: I was never trained in much except making sandwhiches and so this one girl whose my age sighes heavily every time i need her help and makes nasty comments about how mad she gets with me, talks about me to everyone, and is unfair with me more then anyone else. Now two other workers are talking about me, when they think I can't hear, and i got a knife flung at me for apparently just ' standing there' when there was a bunch of people in line. There is only two people who are nice to me at all, people who don't stop talking as soon as i walk into the room. I've been treated terribly by almost every single person there and feel like quiting because their driving me out. Am i over reacting or does this sound reasonable?

You are completely right. Talk to your boss/employer. You can't throw a knife at someone, that can be taken as atempted murder. Go streight for you boss, don't even bother with talking with the people, its not worth it and by the sounds on it its not going to do much. Find another job before you quit, but if nothing changes, you don't want to put your life in jepordy. Also, why do you want to be around those kind of people? Just make sure you talk to your boss, He'll have a solution but if their not gone, then you should be.

ok 14/f
so i live with my dad only and i went to school today and the certain class was dance and the teacher gave us a list to buy and bring. and the list included tampons and it either all of the list or nothing (for 6 free absenses)

so i have some questions:
• why would i need to bring tampons? what do you think? i use pads cuz im scared, what do i do? will i have to use tampons? im gonna b wearing tights and a leotard. and when im not wearing that im gonna have to change in front of everyone, what do i do??

• also, since i live with my dad how the heck do i get tampons???

HELP!!
p.s. i cant get anyone else to get the tampons!

Try tampons, It took me a year to get one in. It's going to hurt, but keep pushing till it's unbearable, then keep trying again till your period is over. and when it ends, if you can't get it in then oh well, next time! How do you get the pads? Dad? Ask your dad for money for pads, if your not embaressed about that, then go and buy tampons. He won't care, it's your body, your choice. With a leo, you don't want to see the pad line. Lie, and say you have to go to the bathroom when you change, just be like oh i have to go to the bathroom so i might as well change. If you can't do that then just bring a towel to wrap around you and do your best in a corner. Talk to your dance teacher, see if you give her the money she can buy them for you, but you shouldn't be embaressed. Just ask your dad for some money have him drop you off at walgreens get your stuff and then check out.

good luck!

This is pretty sad, but im more experienced with guys who date sluts. im not a slut.. but still haha. i take them and change them and make them want me. anyway, so finally im dating a normal guy. its like our fourth date and hes gonna kiss me next time. he said "a kiss" so i guess just one peck lol. whatever, im willing to go slow. but how's he gonna do it? he seems kinda shy. is he probably gonna turn his head and go in for a long peck? or keep his head straight and do a quick peck? gah i donno, any shy guys here..what would yall do? also. if he doesnt kiss me by the end of the night,should i just kiss him.

You can't plan this, neither can he. He's probally just as freaked as you. Just go with th flow and if kissing him at the end feels right to you then do it. When the time comes you will know. Trust me. Sorry f this sounds weird, re reading this it sounds corny hahaha. But you'll see that what i' saying is right when it happens..

I have been with my man for over10 yrs and I caught him kissing another man. Now he flat out says it never happened and Im crazy for it. I know what I saw. I look back now and there are tell,tell signs all along,that srapping Man had very close friends but that close!Now I have gone beserk, tried to run him over. Now Im got legal problems.How do I put him out of my mind and stop this insane obsession to make him just tell me??

How old are you?
How old is he?
Do you want to stay with him?
Do you want to dump him?

You left out some important details, but i'll try to answer as best as i can.

First of all, just flat out say this, I saw you, don't lie, I know what I saw. Be like, you need to tell me. How long has this been going on? Why didn't you tell me?

He may not want to tell you becuase, well call me crazy, BUT YOU TRIED TO RUN HIM OVERR!

Just cool it, be like screw this guy, his an a$$. Go find someone that you diserve. Stop assosiating yourself with him. Don't put your self in the possition where you have to be at the same place, at the same time with him. He might be bi-sexual. Thats fine, but not while your in a relationship.

Try to talk it out calmly. You can't over react and freak out, say it in a nice, calm voice, maybe that will get it through his head.

Move on though, he doesn't diserve you and you can have soooooo much better.

okay so me and my boyfriend had been dating for three years and he asked me to marry him!I'm only 14! and he's 16. we're sooo young! I didn't give him my answer yet but I just don't know what to say. I mean I love him with all my heart and when he cry then I cry. when he's hurt or injured then I injure myself to be injured with him. we do everything together besides go to school. I do plan to get married some day but not this soon. he said we'll be engaged until I'm 17 or 18 and that's when we'll get married. but should I wait till I'm that age or should I just tell him no?what should I do?

Well, you don't even know if you guys are still going to be together in 3 or 4 years, you might be. But, if your not you don't want to have that comitment. I think what you should tell him is that you want to wait a little bit and that you tink that your to young. Just say that you don't want to make that kind of commit ment. Just don't say it like that. lol. Well, make it clear that you'll deal with that when your 17 or 18. Do you really want to go to college married? When you two may not even go to the same college?

You need to consider all of this. Make sure when you're telling him the answer you word it right, the worst possible thing is that he'll think you just don't like him enough to make that commitment.

so im trying out for a highschool team and i need to run 3 miles in around 21 minutes. right now i can do it in 24. the tryouts are in a week. how can i improve by then

Keep stretching, you need to get your mucsels loose. Tone down the training this last week, you odn't want to pull/tear muscle.

Find someone who you know can make the time limit, keep up with them, you can do it. Just don't leave the person stick with them.

Good luck, hope you can make it

I need a list of healthy things that I can eat for lunch so I can make a plan on the calendar for my school year.

=] thanks!

Search around for where you can enter your weight, and hight, age, and amout of activity and you can get a list of the ammounts of each food group of what you should be eating everyday, take a look at that.

But:::

Try getting
Sandwhich wraps
fruits
cellery
veggies
etc.

Just lay off the high callorie snakcs, you can have snacks with no nutricinal value as long as you eat them in moderation, try to stay away from empty callorie foods. Research some stuff and try to make a scheduale for fruit days, veggie days, meat days, etc.

But, you should try to eat everything, at least something from every group, everyday.

good luck

i just ordered a white bathing suit top from victoria's secret. unfortunately, when i got it in the mail today i realized that it looks ridiculous. the sewing makes it look like my nipples are poking through, when in reality it looks that way even off of me. i think it is so odd looking because it is white, but i don't know. so-what should i do with the bathingsuit top? it looks so weird on me. i can't return it either. so i have to do something with it. it's made out of nylon/spandex. help!

How much was it?

You might be screwed, if it's like $10, then whatever, $10, who cares. But if its that importat then sell it to playdoos closet, you may not get a lot for it but you might atleast get something. Try selling it to a friend, if they like it. Or, Ebay. But Ebay's only if its like expensicve, if its cheap then you might be better off just kee[piing it but not wearing, its not worth the effoert to sell then.

Okay, so i'm looking for a new handbag for this upcoming school year, and the only ones I can manage to find that I am in LOVE with, are the handbags from Ruehl. They are GORGEOUS. My only problem is, my boyfriends 18th birthday is coming up, so i've got to keep some money stashed away for his gifts (and the ruehl bags arent exactly cheap). So I was wondering if anyone else knew anywhere with similar handbags or just attractive handbags in general.

Thanks

Some of them...well most of them are ugly, but just take a look you might find something you like. I don't know how much your willing to spend so yea.

Update the search depending on when you veiw it.

Otherwise, try knockoffs.
There not that bad, and i'll admit most of them you can tell, but then just get one where you can't tell

im 14 years old and have been with a couple of guys(they are all a couple years older an wayy more experienced) ive done alot of sexual stuff, but if its fingering or sex, it always hurts me, im not a virgin, but it always hurts, how come?

It might just take some time.
Depending on how experienced you are.

It's going to hurt the first few times, my mom told me that.
Your vagina hole might just be small, and thats okay.
It's going to take sometime to get used to.

do wigs need shampooing too?

If they get dirty, yes.
But if you just want to wash it for a special day then thats fine, just make sure you do it the right way.

look at this site, make sure if your wig is synthetic hair that you fallow those directions, as well as if it is human hair.
