My problem is that I am going to participate in a school talent show in the near future and I am not quite sure if "Jenny Was A Friend Of Mine" is a good song to sing...do you think that is a good song for me? It might also help if I told you that:
1. I want to sort of "blend in" with the song.
2. I am an alto.
3. Would you reccomend any other songs for karaoke on the CD instead?
~13-year-old girl~
It is difficult to see if the song is working for you over the net. See if you have a friend with a karaoke machine that can lend it to you. Try a test audience with a few of your friends to help you decide what works for you. Remember to breathe from your "stomach" not your head. Practice helps a lot. Be sure that what you are singing isn't a strain on you, but accentuates what you already have.

I want to bring my bf over to my house, but everytime i do, my little sisters (theres 2 of them and theyre 5 and 7) follow me everywhere! Or make kissy faces! This is SOO embarrassing! Ive tried EVERYTHING but nothing works! it hapens with my friends too..any ways i candeceive them or SOMETHING?!
Bribe them. There is always something they want. Talk to your mom and see if she can get them to go play in their room or something. This can't be easy. Mostly they are just curious, and they aren't used to not being around you. So makes some silly joke about them when they are bothering you, and ignore them if you can't get them to leave you alone in one room of the house.

ya i know this is such a lovely question.. but i need help. i get these little arm pimples.. i don't know if they're actually pimples but they're little zitlike things and white puss comes out of it.. what are these? where did they come from? and i have scars from them.. how can i get them to go away?
and back acne.. i have scars from that too, and i get all these pimples on my shoulder, i can't get them to go away and the scars too? any good meds you can reccommend? please help me !
Don't pop them whatever you do. You need to see a dermatologist for help on these bad boys. And try to drink more water. It makes everything behave better.

Over the weekend me and my friend got in a fight with a permanet marker, she accidently got some on my light pair of jeans and it won't come out. I washed them and put SHOUT stain remover on them twice but it still won't come out. Do any of you have any suggestions? My jeans are really light, so I dont wanna to ruin there color or anything, and if I bleach them, then I'll lose the color in that spot. Please help.
It will be there probably a long while. Other suggestions might be hairspray or acetone. But the acetone may make a spot or a hole. Maybe you add a few more marks in different colors? At least then it would look like you did it on purpose.

I have a bit of a big decision here and I was hoping for opinions/advice about it if you'd be so kind. My parents split up a long time ago over the summer acutally and I had said I didnt want to be around her soon to be husband because of the fact he took mom away from us although it takes two. And his son got in trouble for molestation of his little sister so I said I didn't want to be around him either. So I live with my father. But lately, I've been seeing my mom after not seeing her for a long time. We've been getting close again. The other night she took me to her house to see my cat that she had taken but her boyfriend and his son were there. And my court I have said I don't want to be around them but it isn't official until March 28 when we go to court about it. Dad thinks that I want him to have custody of me and that I hate my moms boyfriend and his son. But I went to her house a lot this weekend with my friend, we walked. And moms boyfriend and his son are really nice. Her boyfriend cares about me and his son is really nice. He has couseling for what he did so he's better now with the molesation thing. And I keep thinking I'd be better off with my mom. Here at my dads we don't have money to just spend. A bunch of our bills are behind. Everything almost gets cut off or does before my dad pays it. And he gets good money so I don't know where it's all going to. And this weekend I didn't want to come home from my friends house at all. I'm not happy here that much. But the thing is, My dad says he'd have nothing if I left him. But at my moms they have money for things, the bills are payed, the house is clean and stuff. So my delimma is: Should I move in with my Mom, or stay with my dad? What do you think?
I would ask my assigned guardian if it is possible to have a temporary custody with your mom if you feel conflicted. There may be a way to spend some time with your mom, and change to your dad if you have too.It is a hard decision for a young person to make. Your dad is probably depressed, which is why he would say if you left he would have nothing. He really doesn't need to lay that stuff on you. You have enough. Do talk to your dad about how you are feeling, and maybe he will understand. This is a really difficult time for you all.
Best wishes.

i just lost one of my friends we havent been close recently but for 3 years we were and we drifted the past year, i just found out he passed away and i cant belive it, it hurts so much i alwayts pass by his house thinking hes going to be there, i always want to call his cell phone thinking hes going to pick up, i cant handle this no1 can, i dont no wat to do i miss him teribly i just wish i can bring him back and tell him that even tho we drifted that i still love him when i saw him laying in the casket i just wanted to wake him up, what should i do :'(
It's very hard to lose a good friend. You will have a long time when you miss them. Different social events set you off, etc. Why don't you get a group of friends that knew him and have a party in his honor? Talk about the good times. Or do something charitable or good in his name: plant a tree or donate money. I am sure they forgive you; it happens to everybody sooner or later. I ended up going to counseling for the first time ever because I was so distraught and depressed.

I took a part time job in the field I thought I might like to go into. It turned out I wanted something completely different, but that is a good thing to at least know what you don't want.
I took a class in theatre to fill an empty space and decided it was pretty fun. I have been working in theatre since junior high. I have been a professional with a degree for about 10 years.
Try some different things. Figure out what you are good at and what you like. Try to match that with a career you might like. Volunteering different places can help you decide what you do and do not like. All you have to do is ask someone if you could intern or help out. Sometimes there is an application process, but that will give you experience in getting a real job later. And it also helps with scholarship interviews. Best wishes.

I need to talk to my friend about something serioud but everytime i mention it, he changes the subject or doesnt answer or signs off aim. What should I do so I can get the message across that we really need to talk and its serious?
Try talking to him face to face. If he won't listen, then write him a letter. It is way too easy to hang up or log off when you don't want to talk.

alright, my friend is gettin really paranoid. he keeps thinkin that there might be "side effects" from masturbation. he's 15 and he says he's like addicted to bangin himself. so are there any "side effects" from too much masturbation? if so, what are they?
thanks
Yeah there aren't any. And by the way the smart butt three or four answers down about the "curved dong" is seriously misinformed. There is nothing wrong or bad about a sloping glans. Everybody is a little different.

I cheated on my husband for over a year it all stared because he had slapped me and I couldnt forgive him. He tried everything to get me back and I was being a bitch and unwilling to hear anything he was saying. After a while I came to my senses and wanted my famly back, but now he can't forgive me for the affair, but he has recently started seeing someone. Its so confusing because we have a daughter together and even though hes been seeing this other person we have still been sleeping together and now I'm pregnant again (its his) Now he's telling me to be patient and that he hasnt been speaking to her anymore and that she hasnt been coming around, but I don't believe him. I really want to save my marriage and I don't know how to go about it. We dont live together and I just want to be at home with my husband and daughter. What should I do?
If there is a marriage counselor through work, church, or social services, you need to take advantage of it. If he won't go, you go anyway. It will take a lot of work and a lot of healing to put your lives back together, but it isn't impossible. I wish you luck and happiness.

I'm very confused.
My two best friends are starting to treat me like I'm a little kid or something because I haven't gone as far as they have, because I haven't had a boyfriend in a little while. Which I think is fine because I'm only a freshman, and my life doesn't revolve around that stuff. But it still annoys me that they act like I'm immature or something because I haven't gotten fingered, and because I didn't approve of my friend having sex with this guy for revenge. They also make fun of me for being really straight edge which I don't think I am. They think they are really cool because they hang out in a specific neighborhood in brooklyn sometimes.I don't know, I guess it just annoys me that they think they are much more mature because I don't get shit drunk and coked up all the time, and I refrain from making out with bunches of people. But I don't want to yell at them or make them think I don't want to be friends with them anymore. What should I do?
You answered your own question. Find someone else to spend your time with. You don't need their stupidity bringing you down and into things you don't want. It's not about amturity, it's about common sense.

I haven't seen my mother for 9 years, I'm 14. She's been on methampthetamines my entire life. I just got word today of where she is, I talked to her about 3 years ago. I need to go see her so that I can get over the fact that she will never be my mom. I just need some advice on what to say to her, and I really want to tell her to stop doing methampthetamines. I know that I won't be able to help her, but I just need some advice on how to deal with the fact that I will never have her as my mom, and that I will never be able to help her. I know it's hard to answer, but please, if anyone can help me. The pressure is too much, I'm seeing her this weekend. Please help me. I have no one else to turn to. 14/f
You need to talk to someone about how you are feeling. Maybe a school counselor or an adult friend.
Begging her to quit won't really help much. If you can call her on the phone or write her a letter, it will help you break the ice. The more you visit and talk to her, the easier it becomes. You may never have a mother/daughter relationship, but that does not mean you can't have any relationship at all with her. She has got to want to help herself get better. If she starts saying awful things to you and mistreats you, then you would be better off without a relationship at all. This is a big issue, so don't be too hard on yourself. It is not your fault that it happened or your responsibility to make it go away.

My boyfriend live 1500 miles away. Weve been together what seems like forever, but its 8 months. We're so in love, even though its been a short time we really know each other and im close with his family. But everyone is like hes cheating on you. Hes a guy... I know hes a guy but im not stupid he did do stuff before me but not much and hes not like that. Hes so against cheating and would NEVER do that. But how do I get these people off my back? Even his losker room buddies say it. And I know they wouldnt know much bc he didnt really talk to them much. He never lied to me and I could easily find out. i know where he is at all times. Hes not cheating on me. How can I convince other people?
You don't have to convince them of anything. Trusting him is all you need. It's very difficult to maintain a long distance relationship, but as long as you trust him and he you everything will be fine.

A lot of people at school call me teachers' pet. I don't like any of my teachers, nor suck up to them. I only get good grades because I want to get into the Naval Academy. I don't show off or anything.. i think.. so what should I do to shut these bitches up? (13, F, 7th grade)
Ignore them. Teacher's pets get good recommendations to go to college. You have a valid reason to get good grades. You will be running the country while they will still be shoveling french fries. Keep up the good work; it does pay off.

hey. my best friend has this problem. her parents wont let her go onto this website because of so block thing that my best friends other friend gave to my Best friends mom. she likes this site. and wen ever shes at my house shes on it. how should i help?
If you think really hard, you will figure out how else she can get on here. Her mom has pretty good reasons for her not to be here. Parents aren't really hard to outsmart if you need to, but you are on your own.

i am a 13 year old girl, and i got my period for the first time today. i don't know how to tell my mom. any advice?
I don't know what my mom did about preparing me for this. I know we talked a lot about what we wanted to use and what happens. I remember being at our place on the river and yelling for mom from the bathroom. I think we were the only ones in the place.
So just tell her. She's a girl too, she will understand.

Hi, I'm 14/f and I've been in dance for 9 years. The only thing is, I really suck. I'm not just saying this, I really do. I'm one of the worst in my class, and I get cruddy parts in my recitals. My teacher plays favorites, and I'm not one of them, because I'm not good. A lot of the people who are really good are huge snobs about it. They're like, obsessed with themselves. My other friend is in the same situation. (we go to the same dance school). We want to quit, but we can't, for a number of reasons. We'd be leaving some of our friends. We might as well just wait until we graduate, because that's when most people quit. (when someone quits before they graduate, my dance teacher talks badly about them, and all the snobby girls laugh). Our moms would get mad. Also, they both say if we quit, we have to join something else, but we don't like anything else. We're not good at sports. I don't even like dancing because I'm not good. And even if I was, I don't think it's really my thing. But don't tell me to quit, because I just can't. I just need help. I want to get better, because I think if I get better, I'd feel better about my self. (I'm very self concious about my dancing) But my teacher doesn't like me and my friend, so I can't ask her for tips. (like, if we're doing something wrong, she just says that's wrong and doesn't tell us how to do it) Does anyone know any exercises to get your leg higher in your arabesque, get your feet in 5th position, do splits, have balance, etc.? Thanks, I really appreciate your help. Sorry about the length, but I really need help. Thanks. I rate.
If you want to get better, why don't you corner a snob/good dancer? Ask them for advice. It will put them in a sort of power position, but you will benefit by being a better dancer. The more stretching and strenghtening you do, the more things you can do with your body. I am sorry that I don't know any specific stretches, but a little more practice on your own and tutelage will help bunches. Beg your teacher to show you what you should be doing. Sometimes they try to be hard on you on purpose to make you a better dancer. It's does not necessarily mean that she hates you. You get out of anything exactly what you put into it.

should i leave my friend to go to a party with the guy i like or stay with my friend. me and my friend made the plans earlier than the party had come up....
You should go with your friend because you made plans with them first. Is it the same party? Tell your guy you'll meet him there if it is. And tell your friend that he's meeting you there. It would be really cool if he had a friend that could talk to yours while ya'll are hanging out. But you know, friends are way more important than boys.

I seem to attract women who are not currently single.
This wouldn't be such a delima if I didn't fall for them when they seduce me, but I seem to do that too.
It's happening again now, for the 3rd time in my life! I know morally I should avoid the situation, but it's too late for that now, I'm in knee deep. What should I do?
age/gender, huh? I'm an adult Male.
In the top five questions you should ask someone you like, you should sneak in the are you married question. If they lie to you, then you gotta figure out why you attract so many liars and dishonest women.
It's hard to pull away from someone you really care for. If they are to truly give themselves to you, then they have to be available. You can fool yourself for a while, but it won't be long before this becomes the prevailing issue. If they aren't free now, tell them you are taking a break until they become free. Or find someone else (as truly hard as it is).
