I have hair on my breats... not on the nipples, but around them. What's a good way to remove it that isn't very painful?

if you have the money you can get all the hair lasered off and it will never grow back. otherwise, the only other option is to tweeze it.

thanks in advance :)

I wanted to try scrunchng my hair, so I asked my mom if we had any mousse. She said she had some and she gave me this can that is spray foam or something and no where on it says mouse.. I was wondering if it is? If I list what it says on the front.. back to basica is the brand. It says, volume infusing spray foam., spray on styler for volume, texture and lift. Is this mouse, and if not will it work for scrunching hair? I have thin hair if it helps.

yes. this is the exact same thing as mousse. =]

what does lust mean and what are some examples

lust is a very strong sexual desire for someone. it is physical attraction only, and often confused with love.
and example of this would be wanting a boy only for his body and sex, and nothing else.

There's this guy, Andrew. I don't really know him, but he goes to my school. We talked on facebook for a while, but now I'm afraid that he was doing something that wasn't quite right...
There's also this girl, Jenny. I don't like her, and she doesn't like me. I was thinking that she may have had something to do with this...
Here's how our conversation went, somewhat:

He commented me first:
"Nice, your birthday is in may"
his is too.
then we talked for a while, and it all seemed pretty cool. We were getting along pretty well.

A few days ago i fell in the hallway... and he commented:

Andrew: "oh i'm sorry, but i had to laugh when you slipped in the hallway this morning"

Me: "hahaha you were there?
that was the funniest thing. my entire left side was soaked."

Andrew: "haha yeah, i didn't want you to see me laughing becuase i didn't want you to think i was a jerk since i jsut started tot alk to you"

Me: "oh haha well i was laughing too
but yeah good thinking"

Andrew: "yeaupp, just could'nt make myself look bad right away"

THENNN i see, on his wall, a comment from Jenny, and she told him not to talk to me and called me a loser...

a while later...
Andrew: "umm jenny is wierd."

Me: "haha whatever."

Andrew: "but don't worry i don't like her at all
i depise herrrr"

which I thought was soo weird, because who says that they despise someone(and that's not something that he has EVER openly expressed) ON FACEBOOK?

so thennn he asked if i had a boyfriend, which was weird because my facebook says that im single.

and then we were talking about vacation, and I said that where he was going was cool, and he goes
"haha thanks kfc"

1. what does kfc mean?

and 2(more importantly). Do you think that he's messing with me?

he sounds a little bit creepy to me. it also sounds like he is messing with your head big time. i would stay away from him, and talk to guys who you know for sure are nice and are actually interested in you. kfc? it doesnt stand for anything. i have no idea what that boy is talking about. he sounds weird, and i would forget about him completely!

what are your opinions on tankinis.

are they more for older women (25 and up), or can teenagers where them too and still look cool. like would you wear them?

thanks

i think tankinis look better on heavier girls. it hides a little more tummy and makes you look slimmer. if you do have a skinny figure, however, defintely go for a bikini! both are in style and can be worn at any age. it just depends on your body type.

my 16th birthday is coming in a couple of months..the last week of april to be exact. i want to play something big for it. well, not to big but i kind of want all of my friends to come, and that can be quite a few. (its around twenty).

i want it to be fun too..and something that will be memorable(sp)...

any ideas would be appreciated :)
thanks :)

a hollywood theme would be so much fun.
have all your friends dress up as their favorite celebrities, or just look like a celebrity. =]
buy a stunning dress (hollywood style) and be yourself, since you WILL be a celebrity on your birthday.
have yummy foods sitting out.
fun dance music blasting.
a red carpet when you walk in.
give out VIP only invites.
have someone at the door checking people off. (not that its a huge deal, its just fun to do. =]
DANCE!

I go to the gym 4 days a week and use the elliptical 45mins and that is all I do. What can I do to help me lose some more weight quicker?

this is great you are spending time at the gym. but are you working equally hard with the foods you eat? cut out all sodas, sweets, chips, ice cream, etc. and trust me, you will see a large difference soon. =] good luck!
