There's always clerical or other work that needs to be done by somebody at a local hospital. There is always a high turnaround rate with local hospitals needing workers. Like the previous poster said I would put in an application there.
You should also consider senior's centers or retirement homes. They always have room for young people to come in and play games with seniors, chat and of big importance they need kids who will read to the seniors as well. That's always a position you can find without problem.
You should also call Easter Seals, Heart & Stroke, Cancer society and see if they have work for volunteers. They almost always do at their local chapters.
One of the best places of all to make a difference for kids, adults EVERYBODY is to go onto Mother's Against Drunk Driving national page and contact them about volunteering and being an advocate for youth.
Another idea is calling Habitat For Humanity and seeing if you can go to a construction site of their's and help out. The other idea is to call The Learning Disability Assoc. of America and ask to help out in any way you can. They always need help with clerical work.
Check out for American or Canadian Mental Health Assoc. chapters as they could use your help with planning events, clerical, advocacy wth youth etc. You'll learn a lot about dignity, grace and humility as well as bravery and prejudice from it. It's always a character building role.

i want to work at the hilander down the road from my house and i was wonder would they hire me i thinki have seen kids my age working thier but not sure and if they will hire me how do i get a recomendation to work thier thanx in advanced ------ o and happpy easter (link)
|
You should walk in and ask if you could speak to the manager for a moment. Ask them if they hire people your age, tell them why you wanted to work there and see what happens. You could also mention that while it would be a first job for you that you are a fast learner.
Employers are far more likely to give a kid or anyone a chance at a job when that person goes to talk to them face to face. This is what I recommend you do and ask them about hiring. They'll tell you what they require etc.
Even if they do not hire you they might remember your name for later on. I cannot say if they will hire a 15-year-old for usre but your best bet is to just walk in and ask the anager on duty these questions.
Believe me, it gets you a lot further than anyone else who dropped off a resume or e-mailed it in. It shows you put thought into this and wanting to be with their company.

I'm a girl and i'm in love with my best friend. (guy).
Literally, head over heals in love. I dream about him every night, seriously.
What can I do to show him that i'm interested, but not be too direct? Like what can I do that won't be too obvious? I don't wanna like grab his hand or something just incase he isn't into me.
Thanks. (link)

There are several things that you can do. While it's not asking him out in the strictest sense you can indeed approach him. Tell him you and your friends are having a party, hanging out whatever/wherever and ask him to tag along.
You could also approach him with your e-mail address, IM, phone details and ask him to chat online some time. You aren't actually asking him out but rather putting out bait nd hoping to ensnare your prey.
If he's not into either of those things move on as he's not into you. It's an embarrasment free way of finding out these things without asking someone out.
The other thing you could do is be kind towards him, compliments, glances (subtlely don't over do it) and wait and see what he does. The first plan above works better as you know within mnutes where you stand without looking bad.

hi, im 15, and im going to be 16 in october. i was thinking of having a poker party, in the most expensive room in this hotel-Ramada Jarvis, here in the uk. Do i need to be a certain age to rent a room out for me and my friends-about 10 of them? its going to have to be a double room as thats the largest they have. i wanted a bigger room with a big table but i think they are for everyone to use, like in the main hall. So yeah, anyway, do i need to be a certain age rent a room? and also any tips for the party will be appreciated. thanks (link)
|
You won't be able to rent any hotel room by yourself until you are 18-years-old. They also require you to have a valid credit card and ID checking in.
They will not even reserve a room at most places including the Ramada chain without getting your credit card number to hold the reervation. If you show up well after check-in or not at all your card is charged.
You can certainly have the party if your parents rent the room and consent or an older person rents the room. Having said that if they see you have a lot of "kids" with you and are all in room whatever they can kick you out because other patrons need their sleep or if music is on.
Also if anything happened in the room from under-age drinking, drugs, or someone said they were assaulted the renter is in trouble for everything that happens in the room. Hotels will also sue or bill the renter for anything that gets damaged or trashed.
Make sure the people you invite can be trusted. Make it a no-booze affair as you're asking for probelms otherwise. Although the idea of having a room to yourselves is great maybe you should have the party at your place.
The price of a room can be more than you think if anything goes wrong or guests call management or security about your room. If they find minors with older people and any drugs or sex or whatever is walked in on charges can be laid etc.
Odds are you hang out with good kids and they can be trusted. If you want the room you'll need to talk to your parents about it and negotiate terms and conditions or find someone old enough to rent it and want to assume the liability.

well i really really really want to become an actress. i think i have the talent and the looks. but i dont know where to start. i live in newyork queens so its hard to find acting agencies or auditions around here. does anyone know where i can go to find this?
also. i want to know where its better to go to auditions or acting agencies? and why?
or any summer acting programs. any advice on what i can do and how i can get started?
all answers would be greaty greatly appreciated thanks! (link)

There's a couple of things you need to know before doing anything or you could get ripped-off or in trouble. Never pay anyone to represent you period. The only exception to that rule is if you are an extra or belong to a kids agency.
They can charge a small fee as a lot of extras and kids want out when they see it's not glamourous. Do NOT try to get an agent for anything until you have spoken to The Screen Actor's Guild in America or ACTRA in the United States.
They have a list of people who are reputable and a list of people who are not. They can recommend who you should see. Reputable agencies never advertise in the phone book for clients or in the newspapers. This is why you cannot seem to find one even though NYC is crawling with them.
Id someone insists you go to their training programs or pay money for photos bail. When you first start all you need is a basic snap-shot or several color copies of a 8*10 they can send out to casting directors.
Also, the biggest scam going right now are so-called agents that will put your photo on the web so casting directors will see it. This is to rip you off.
You'll never see a day of work from it at all because directors and casting directors do not use the Web to cast anything it's all through agents and nobody works that way period.
Also, if you think you're going to get an agent easily to rep you because you have talent or a kids agency to take you on in a snap it doesnt work that way.
A principal agent (which is an agent that reps a small amount of people) will not take you on because you don't have any credits to your name.
What do you do? If you want to be on set and in a lot of movies especially in NYC or Queens you need to hire a background agency to represent you. They will get you work on set to be an extra on Hollywood films and TV shows/Tv Movies filmed in your area. There's a ton of them all the time.
Call SAG and ask for a list of these agents in your area and visit one with your parents. They are allowed to charge a one time fee each year to you because of the fact that most people after spending 14 hours on a set from whacy hors ie 8 a.m to 1 or 2 a.m. the next day want out.
Having said all that I've been fortunate enough to see actors such as Geena Davis, Dan Aykroyd, John Goodman, Christopher Walken, Michelle Pfieffer, Amanda Bynes, Robin Williams, Charles Bronson and more up close.
That's another tule to tell you about. Once on set do not speak to any actor or try to get an autograph as you'll get booted off the set, loose your agent and never be booked for work again. There's zero tolerance for that unless the actor comes up to shake people's hands or offers to do so.

okay, so sorry in advance if this is long.
so me and this boy have been friends for so long. like about 8-9 years. and like last year and this year we fought all the time.
So we got into a huge fight about 3 months ago. and its not like we are going to be friends again. and He doesnt care at all.
And like this may sound weird but like i have been doing really bad in school latley. and im not saying that the two have anything to do with each other.
And once when i saw him i got a really sharp pain in my chest and like the other day he came into my class and i kinda may have flipped out. like i put my headphones in and my ipod froze and then i was flipping out to this girl and like i was shaking and i dont know. it was like an anxiety attack.
i dont know if these things are like related or anything.
so do you think that they are? and like what should i do to like control it if it is something to do with the kid? (link)
|
What this means is that you are afraid of him and to be more exact of his confronting you. You have tons of anxiety about him that when you saw him in your classroom again you did in fact have a panic attack.
What do you do? Relaize that he has long ago moved on from the fight and forgotten about you and it. He's not interested in talking to you or confronting you or he would have found a way to get to you earlier if not the other day.
You need to move on and stop thinking about him and the fight you had. He's moved on and forgotten all about this and as you said desn't care about it. Even if he did talk to you and if it got heated all you would have to say to him is "We have been over this before.
Now, if you don't mind please excuse me I have to get back to my work or class." Walk away after that. He's nt concerned about you and you have to forget about him. It's over, done, in the past. Don't let the past disturb you as that's well, stupid for lak of a nicer term.
As far as not doing well in school this plays a small part. If your thinking and all your time is spent wasted on fearing him it's going to make it hard for you to focus on anything. If you need to ask for extra help from your teacher and or get another student to coach you or start a study group.
If you experience panic attacks again that do not seem to be related to this person you need to tuck your head between your legs as you sit and take in several deep breaths and it will subside. If this is happening a lot you need to see a psychiatrist who can help you and prescribe anti-anxiety medications.

I want to get my nose pierced. Not for anyone else but myself. I've done some research about it, and know about the process and affects of it and decided to approach my mom about it. She IMMEDIATELY dimissed my suggestion to get a nose piercing. She's totally ignorant of that subject and said unfair things. I'm not sure if she thinks it is trashy, but she had NO backup to her "no" answer other than..."what are people going to say in job interviews when you get oldeR? do you want a hole in your nose?" I explained that the small stud i wants leaves a very tiny hole and that it can be easily removed. She said i didn't know what i was talking about.
=/ ugh. I don't want to dye my hair or change anything like that, and i don't have any other piercings. This is the ONLY thing that i want, and know i would be able to take care of it.
What can i say to change her mind? My dad is fine with it.
If there are any adults on here...what do you think of a person who has a nose ring?
f/16
thanks (link)
|
I'm not sure if you said your dad lives with you and your mom or not. If he's fine with it all you need to do is tell him that she will not read literature on it and is ignornat about the facts and that the stud can be removed for social functions, church etc.
Have your dad approach your mother about it and then use his permission to get it if she won't budge. It will be his problem not yours if she becomes unahppy afterwards. You guys gave her the info and the chance to get educated on it.
She has a point about job interviews and ignorant people looking at you etc. However, her fear isn't about what people will think of her daughter and her piercing it's about what they will think of her when she is out with you. You should bring that to your dad's attention and use it.
That's what it's all about her, her ignorance about piercings and fear of how yours will affect her status with others. Other people aren't the ones who are passing judgment on said piercing it's her. she has some hang-ups about it and your father can address them if you get her the research and have him talk to her.
Also, at 16-years-old I don't *think* this kind of piercing needs a permission slip. It might for younger people but maybe not for you. I know piercings below the belt require you to be 18. If you tell your father you want to do it on your own I don't think you can be stopped unless the parlour says you must be 18.
Don't go on your own without telling your father as you will need him to back you up with mom that he approved. All you might need is for him to provide a letter giving permission and his contact nummbers before they pierce you.
Do not try to create said letter yourself or your problems will be bigger than a hole in your nose ;) Approach your father about it, print out the research you have accumulated and have him go to her with it. I'm sure it will work out.
As far as being an adult goes I think it doesn't matter what others think of it. It matters only that you are happy about it. Who the hell is anyone else to make a judgment on what is right for you to be doing about anything let alone this?

so.. basically.
im 13. turning 14. and i have been thinking alot about sex, but i dont want to yet.
and i tend to like guys alot older then me.
so.. [3] queations.
1) How old were you?
2) Do you regret it?
3) Did it hurt? (link)
|
It's great that you are not giving into peer-pressure and have decided to wait until you are ready. That is the responsible approach but hard to do when guys are looking for one thing only.
As far as your question on does it hurt it depends on the person you ask. Most girls experience a bit of pain if their hymen is being stretched for the first time and hasn't been done so through masturbation or using tampons.
They also may feel friction and discomfort from the man thrusting if they are not properly lubricated. I don't regret the choice to have had sex but I regret the person it was with and the set of circumstances. No, in my case it never hurt but I'm not a girl. You'll get different opinions on that I'm sure from everyone.
My only recommendation is that you find the right person and make sure your brain outweighs your heart when it comes to distinguishing if they're worthy and use protection above everything and get on a good form of birth-control. I'm not trying to preach but you have to be very careful.

ok i tried out for cheerleading and i didnt make it and im kinda mad at the girls that did. i know i shouldnt but im depressed and im mad at the girls that did make it. how do i get over this? (link)
|
You need to understand two key things here. The first thing you need to know is that you gave it your all and that's all anyone can do. Sometimes, we fall short but we're better next time out.
This doesn't mean you blew it, sucked outright etc. You didn't at all. There is lets face it with anything people do or try for someone who is always more advanced pr a bit better. Sometimes, they get chosen over us.
Does this mean you aren't meant to be a cheerleader? Nope. They come looking for you next year or if someone moves on or cannot perform. Anything can happen. It could mean that there's something even better out there for you that cheerleading may have prevented you from doing. This is almost always the case.
The second thing to know is that getting angry about this or at the people who made it is the worst thing you can do. Why? They cannot feel your hostility towards them but you can.
Those feelings of anger towards them will eat away at you and make you sick until you let go and move on. It's not these girls fault they made it and you did not.
Any one of them could be in your position and I'm sure other girls were too. It's not a personal thing against you that you didn't succeed this time out. The smart thing to do is to approach the coach and ask why you didn't make it.
Use what they tell you to practice to become better and if there's an opening this year or next you stand a big shot. The bottom line is to let go of your anger or it will hurt you.
Know you gave it all you had and it's all you or anyone could possibly do. And above all believe that something better will come for you because it always does.

Okai i'm sorry but i don't know what category this goes in. But anyways my friend is always on msn nothing to do so she bothers me. Then these people always go to these dances and she wants to too but she's scared to ask. So i was wondering i their any dances for ages 13-16 in mississauga? and if their is can you send or link umm some websites for her please. i would like it to be like around 6pm-anytime is okay.
Thanks,
14/f (link)
|
I'm not sure about any dances right now but you should bookmark Mississauga, Ontario's Web site at mississauga.ca as tht's where the city willlist events and programs for youth and adults.
There's a ton of programs and classes for teens to enroll in and usually some teen dance programs where they actually teach you dance. Go to that site and then hit epartments and then parks and rec or go here www.mississauga.ca/portal/residents/recreationandparks.
That link will tell her/you about all the programs for adults and teens she can get involved in. You can even phone the number on the site and ask about their catalogue listing them and the dates to enroll by. That's your best bet.
Also be sure to read the free newspapers that come to your door (Mississauga News) as if there's any kind of event for teens/adults they'll have a story, ad or list it in their regular listings section under meetings etc.
If your friend wants badly enough to go to dances with people she knows from online it's time to tell her either go do do it ot don't. Ask her if she prefers being at home or being at a dance? Get her to get up and out the door.
Tell her how much it's beginning to bother you. Let her know you want to be her friend but cannot entertain her online every night. There's tons of stuff she could be doing. Once she has the info from these sites and a list of programs for teens she has no excuse for staying home and e-mailing nightly back and forth.

Last night I gave my boyfriend head,
and today I have a really bad sore throat.
I swallowed, and it was my first time as
well as his. Is my sore throat a result of that?
Or is it just something else? (link)
|
It could be totally unrelated to that and just a cold or sore throat. However, having said that your throat could be sore because of it. Did you take his entire penis into your mouth? If so it's no wonder your throat is sore and or you had lock jaw or a sore jaw as well.
You're only supposed to take a bit of the penis and not the whole thing for those very reasons. I cannot say more than that as people get booted for anything resembling how-to aorund here for good reason. so yes, it could be caused by doing that.

There is this boy at my school who everyone is saying his Penis is Uncircumcised..
What does a penis Uncircumcised differ from the Regular Circumcised penis.
I heard it was a bad thing, Yikes!
Help, Anyone? (link)
|
This link will explain what circumcision is, how a non-circumcised penis looks and is different from a circumcised one.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circumcision
Both circumcised and non-circumcised penises are normal and common. There's nothing bad about either type. The difference is the non-circumcised penis has skin called "foreskin" or "prepuce" that covers the head of the penis to keep the area moist and sensitive.
During intercourse the foreskin retracts allowing the non-circumcised penise's head (the glans) to be ultra-sensitive during sex. A circucised penis lacks the foreskin to cover the head of the penis as that has been removed so the head is always exposed.
In the 1970s and early 1980s circumcision was considered the norm for baby boys. Doctors later determined that it had no benefit health-wise for infacts and did not increase or decrease cases of rare, rare penile cancer.
I heard it may help people avoid infection with HIV/AIDS but not sure that's true. Also more European countries tend not to circumcise boys than America does. Parents however have stopped in some cases having their children circumcised as it's really now for cosmetc purposes and to look like other men or their father.
Some religions and cultures however, insist on circumcision for various reasons. Is circumcision bad? In depends on what your views are as everyone is either pro or against it. There's no common ground.
I hope that article helps you understand what it is and the differences. Further researching on Google or search engines may yeild better articles and stronger information about the procedure.
The reason your classmates think an uncircumcised penis is bad is because they haven't seen one before. They're not educated about it so that's why this fellow may be taunted or rumored about. At least, you'll know what it's about and won't be ignorant or mock him at school.

I'm in a university program run at a college. Unfortunately, it's brand-new, so not all of the kinks have been smoothed out yet.
My exams start on the 12th, classes end on the 11th. I've got 2 on the 12th, 1 on the 13th, 16th, 17th and 18th.
I have a bunch of assignments due on Monday, none of which I've been able to start yet, because I've had too much work.
I just found out from one of my profs that APPARENTLY I've only handed in one lab out of 8 or so. He's going to accept my labs, but he'll take 50 percent off of each one, since they're 'late', even though my partner handed them in; he just forgot to write my name on them. When I found this out, I got so panicky that I ended up being sick.
A few nights ago, I stopped being able to sleep; I do everything I'm supposed to, but the stress is keeping my mind running like crazy. I had to go to the doctor's office and they put me on sleep aids.
I'm worried that I'm going to fail my one class, and if you fail even one class, you can't go into the next year.
I'm supporting myself financially, which is stressful enough, and I'm running into the end-of-year stretch. I've got a whopping 60 dollars in my bank account, can't ask my parents for help, and I have my phone bill, rent and groceries to pay for.
In addition to all of this, I've been helping friends through really difficult times, and dealing with seasonal affective disorder (S.A.D)
I'm so stressed out, and when I get stressed, I shut down. I haven't been able to do anything, and it only stresses me out more.
Any words of wisdom for a person who is literally making herself sick worrying? (link)
|
The first thing you need to do is tell your friends that while you want to help them and that you do support them that you cannot take their problems on and solve yours too. It's really inconsiderate of them to do this. You have to learn to say no to people first of all.
Secondly, you need to get out of the what if I fail? mode. It's not going to happen to you as long as you've been attending class and doing the assignments you already have the material in your head to recall on any exam you are given. Still you need to study and should devote 1-2 hours a night studying bits and pieces from each course until exam day.
Don't study everything about one thing as once. You only retain stuff you study for 30 minutes at a time and come back to later on. Also, this is key be sure to study before going to bed. Why? it'll be on your mind in the morning as your brain never stops processing.
If you use tommorow wisely you can still get your assignments done. Spend 1 on each and then do another one and come back throughout the day to do more until. You can pull it off as I've done it.
Now let's say you failed that course you are in. Many smart people are in that class and they to might and will fail. It's not going to happen to you but if it did it's not the end of the world. You can always do a course over again and return to do year 2 when you are ready to.
If you flunked out all it means is that this particular program at this school isn't going to work out. You can still study to become what you want to be but might have to do it at another school with a less intense workload.
Finally, your health comes before your studies or career. If you have S.A.D. and your health is suffering over all of this it's stupid to continue on. You might have to quit just to get your health in order as the stress can hurt you and land you in the hospital. Is anything worth that?
You cannot afford to shut down and fall apart. You need to put your health first. Here's what I would do corner your program coordinator and tell them you have S.A.D. and cannot function lately and are worried about your marks and year 2.
Ask them if they can allow you to leave the program and get your illness and life/stress taken care of and return to the program and complete it when you are better.
Trust me, I've seen them do this at community colleges all the time as they cannot stop someone's ability to continue over health issue that makes it so you are a wreck and cannt sleep/function.
Also if you are having trouble in your courses you can get tutors to help with the exams and special help and extra time to complete them in a non-stressful enviornment. It might help.
When it comes to money and creditors they cannot get cash from a well that is dry. All they can do is phone or write letters. Let the bills wait and use your money to pay the rent.
Call your parents and tell them what is going on with stress and health and that you are on pills and everything else.
Ask them to help with the rent and bills and you'll pay them back as soon as you earn more. Tell your friends in confidence and see if they'll hep with meals etc. They owe you as you helped them.
I know you will be okay. If it were me I would see to my health and arrange with your program coordinator to finish your courses at a later date. You won't loose your tuition money or suffer accademic penalty from what I recall.
You probably are doing better marks wise than you think and will make it through. However, if you are a wreck health wise and especially mental health wise GET OUT NOW. You don't need any part of a hospital over severe stress in combination with S.A.D.
There's no shame in failing, quitting for health or very good reasons as above. It will all be okay but you cannot do a thing without caring about you first and taking things a step at a time. The sky won't fall if you don't pass.
Your career hopes won't be over and you'll be able to go to college or do what you want in the end. It all works out. The stress is telling you something as is your gut instinct. The program is too much for you health wise I think.

I want to get my tounge pierced. Does it hurt? And I was told you cant eat dairy products for like a week? and does it require a lot of maintence? Also do guys like it? (link)
|
Tongue piercings take 4-6 weeks to heal so you do need to be careful about the kind of foods you consume during that time. The link I'm giving you below answers a majority of frequently asked questions about them and piercings in general including maintence, cleaning/changing jewelery etc. better than I can.
Does it hurt? I haven't had it done but I know the wort part is fear going in. The peircing takes a moment and is over. It all depends on how you handle pain in general. If you have a low pain tolerance it may hurt a lot if you can take a small amount of pain for 30 seconds you'll make it as the needle goes in and boom it's out.
What you have to know and remember is that once it's done you have an open wound in your mouth and have to be cautious. Your biggest concern is migration and rejection of jewelery. The link will explain all about it.
Once you get the piercing done keep the piercer's card as they'll help with any questions afterward. Also they will give you a list of things you must do to take care of your piercing. Do guys like it? it depends, some do and some don't. A lot of them do from what I've seen.
Here's the link with answers to some of your questions and other highly important ones. http://www.tribalectic.com/FAQ.asp?Section=Pierced#37

i have this really bad rash under my left armpit. it burns. its red and irritated and they look like pimples!!! im joining a sport next year and i have and i have had this rash for a year. what can i do to get rid of it. (link)
|
I think you should see a doctor and let them look at it and tell you how to treat it first of all. You mentioned that this rash has been present since last year and never occured before then.
This leads me to wonder if you switched deodorants during that time? Sometimes what seems like the obvious question or idea gets over looked. If you did make a switch and the rash just continued to linger for all this time than I bet that's your issue.
Something clearly is irritating your skin and as you continue to use deodorant every day and this never goes away it leads me to think that's your problem. Any time you see a rash or break in your skin under your arms ditch your deodorant.
I bet if you do that now and keep deodorant off of your underarms for a day or two and just clean them with soap/watr when you need to the area might just heal on it own.
I would show your parents the rash and tell them how long it has lasted as a precaution. If stopping using deodorant for a bit doesn't help see a doctor so they can help you with it.
But remember to relax as this is not cancer or a dread disease you've got but a skin irritation that is ongoing because you haven't figured out what causes it. My hunch is you have an allergy to the perfume in your deodorant as that's where and why a lot of people get rashes.

I'm sorry if this question's inappropriate...I masturbate too much, I think. Whenever I get a chance. Is this bad? If so...how can I stop myself from doing it so often?
P.S...I started "doing it" not too long ago. (link)
|
It's only a problem if all you want to do is masturbate and you cut yourself off from friends and the outside world to do it. I doubt that's happening here. You can masturbate several times a day as long as it's not your primary focus and the only thing you want or end up doing all day.
If you are picking it over being with your friends or going outdoors you have a problem. Otherwise, you're fine and healthy and just have a high sex-drive from the sound of things.
How do you stop from doing it so often? You need to occupy yourself with other things from TV, books, music, games or going outside, hanging out with friends when you get that urge. The urge will then subside and allow you to do this activity less.

theres this guy I like but i dont know if he likes me? theres this guy that has liked me since 2nd grade and wants to go out with me should I? (link)

I take it you are talking about two seperate people. In the case with the first guy the only way to find out if he likes you is to approach him. Don't ask him out directly but rather invite him out with friends to hangout at a movie, bowling etc.
See if he is responsive. If he doesn't seem at all intersted or turns you down you will know to move on. On the other hand, if someone has liked you for more than a decade and wants to date you and you like him that sounds like it will work splendidly.
The decision is one we cannot make for you. It's all up to you to determine your wants and needs from a potential boyfriend. If I were you I would lean towards guy # 2 because he sincerely likes you. Guy number 1 is someone we have no idea about when it comes to whether he likes you.
Who do you like more? Once you establish that in your mind the decision will be easy and obvious. It just boils down to two questions Who do you like more? Who would be the best choice and someone who I feel secure with?
If you can answer that you'll know what to do about the situation. Trust your heart and your gut. What are they trying to tell you?

Okay, so my friend and I are going to do a song for our school talent show. Though at the moment we are thinking of doing the song "Twist and Shout" though, I was wondering if their were any other songs that people would find entertaining that are made for two people. Because "Twist and Shout" isn't exactly a two person song.
Also If it matters, we are 14 and both girls. and not songs that are too terribly high pitched. (link)

Seeing as you like the Beatles why not take Yellow Submarine on instead. Most of it is sung in unison so if you can blend your voices together easily and then alternate on the lyrics in between the infamous chorus you should be fine.
Do you know how to write and arrange parts yet? If you do you can take Twist and Shout and change the melody (as long as they recognize the song) and divde the vocals by two so one of you sings John's versus and the other Paul's.
I think if you stick to the original idea of doing that number you should be fine. Basically you can take any number and re-arrange it for two people. If you do that and be creative with it that will impress talent judges even more.

ok how come degrassi the next generation isn't coming on the N tonite? i thought there was a
new episode every night. (link)

Have you checked out the official home page for Degrassi: The Next Generation? They have changed the design of the page a lot since I last logged on but if you hit "Episodes" it will tells you that they are now 13 episodes in to their 22 shows a year in season 6 in Canada at least.
The Web site has/had ( its somewhere on there still) a list of foreign broadcasters including The N in America and times and dates of the next episodes. If you search www.degrassi.tv long enough you'll soon find info on when the next show airs in your area.
Also, I don't know if this is still the case but America was one season behind Canada at one point with episodes because the N edits down the episodes and censors others. this could be why there are less new episodes of the series than usual.
When the show began in Canada in 2001 they only tape 13 half-hour episodes per year. Now CTV which has a contract for the show in Canada has Epitome Pictures produce 22 episodes of the show per year.
Odds are the N may have pre-empted an episode for reasons unknown or that they have run out of new ones to broadcast. Right now they are 13 episodes in to a 22 episode season in Canada for season six.
Another reason that is most likely for there being no new episodes near you is that members of the Canadian actor/director/screenwriters union ACTRA were on strike a month ago and no new or current products could film anything in Canada util it was resolved unless granted special permission.
I know that as I sometimes work as an extra in Toronto where Degrassi is filmed and everything shut down with all the American projects that were to shoot in Canada going back to the States for new shooting locations.
Anyways, give their official site a whirl and or head to the N's site and look for a way to contact them by phone and ask for the programming dept. who can tell you why its not on should it not air again next week. You might be able to e-mail the station too.

If Maria is really the best friend you ever had and vice-versa this will eventually blow over on its own. What you need to do is give her a few days to calm down and stay out of her way and say nothing to her.
The comment you made really hurt her because there's some truth to it. You made her realize that she is annoying sometimes and that she only talks about herself, a certain guy and who she hates. She just did not want to be confronted and a lot of people don't with their faults. Some people can take it or say they can while some clearly cannot and don't.
You have a lot of history together so I'm sure she will talk to you again and you can work through it. As far as saying her boyfriend isn't even real even she can see that's a dumb reason for a huge fight and to stay mad.
Wait for her to approach you and when she does ask to work things out. I'm sure it will go well but you need to give her a few days to simmer down. I highly doubt the friendship is lost but even if it is this says a ton about her and said friendship was never built on solid ground like you thought.
Give her time, let her come to you and work it out. The worst thing to do is go up to her all stressed asking for forgiveness. She will never treat you seriously or give you an inch or place to voice your opinion of anything afterwards.
She will have all the power in the relationship as that tactic puts her ahead of you from here on out and ruins the trust factor. Wait for her and work it out or if she's not showing interest move on. This should pass though. She's reacting like most people her age that get their nose out of joint over trivial remarks. She'll be fine.
