about

Long story short, I'm from Los Angeles, went to an amazing school, left the US and moved to the Middle East. I've been backpacking around Europe and the Middle East on and off since August 2013.


Would you like to converse? Here's my Forum




Quite frankly, I'm sarcastic way more than I should be. Read a few of my answers, and you'll see that I am not totally mean to anyone.

Type correctly or go home. Yes, that is an ultimatum.

What are toners? Are they moisturizers liquified? I'm talking about face products...not exercise.

Toners tighten your pores to prevent dirt from getting trapped inside.

please only girls answer.
what types of clothes/outfits do girls like on guys?? Im not interested in things like emo style or goth, no offense to those that are, i just dont like the style. any help would be appriciated. ..thanx..

Anything fitted. Most of my guy friends are pretty skinny (and tall), so they wear tightish jeans and fitted shirts.

If you're overweight, don't wear that ^^. Please.

I am on dance team at my school. Right now we have a very low amount of money in our account and we can't afford to do something we really wanted to. What are some good ways to raise money?

We already did a bake sale and didn't make much, and we're not allowed to do a car wash.

This could havea easily been googled.

I'm in charge of my school fundraisers.

JUSTFUNDRAISING SUCKS. DO NOT USE THEM.

I'm selling popcorn, popcornpalace.com.

I'm really bored.I like to try new things and start fun projects like combining archietecture,photoghraphy and sculpture into a single art work.I just want to have fun.Please could you think of something fun for me to do.Any suggestions are appreciated.

I'd say ceramics, and use cool lighting to take pictures.

I've never done architecture, photography, or sculpture, so I really wouldn't know. Why not ask this questino to the general pool of thousands of columnists?

Is it safe to put a picture of yourslef on your advice coluum? I dont really trust the internet...

Of course.

If you're worried, you can do what I did and post a picture that doesn't really show your face well.

But you can't really track someone down by picture.

Just don't give out your name, address, etc. if you're scared.

in John Tucker Must Die, in the beginning scenes like the detention scene and the one where the 3 girls first go to Kate's house, Beth [the dark haired girl] is wearing a purple see-through top that like wraps around her shoulders and ties over a blue tank top. i was wondering if anyone knew where i could find that or something like that?? no ebay, thanks.

It's a Wrap in Burbank, CA, if anywhere.

My 16th birthday isnt until the end of August..but I really want to have one & start planning. I want to have a huge party (like on MTV) but the problem is - I dont know if I have that much money. I imagine those parties are like, 300,000 thousand dollars or MORE. I definitely dont have that. Any ideas for a good sweet 16? Themes? Ways to cut the cost down?

Also, how can my party stand out? Obviously, I want a band to come - like Copeland or Dashboard Confessional..but that really cant happen I dont think. I dont know, IS it possible?

Many bands will make an apperance/ perform for between $3,000 and $300,000.

I don't know you, and you didn't specify if you wanted a color theme, or a real theme, so I think Vegas or Paris with their respective colors would be cool.

I have a singing competition and I have no idea what to sing! Im a 13 year old girl.. and I dont really know how to explain my voice but ive been told its good.. lol bad description, and it sounds a little like mariah carey but i cant get all those super high notes she can. im consiedered to be an alto when i sing.. maybe a little higher or lower sometimes, too. uh dont know how else to describe it.. so any good songs you know that will really get me to be "sanging"? also i need the sheet music, my music teacher says. so if you know where i can get them, then be my guest and show me! lol thanks alot!!!!!!!!!!

Sing a song that you already know and love, and then find sheet music for it. It'll be sooo much easer.

I suggest Rihanna.

so im goin to the pediatricion tomorrow w/ my mom for a check up. last time i went i had to wear a hospital gown so that they could check me out & stuff.. but like.. last time i went was like 2 years ago & i had only shaved my private area like once so it wasnt noticable , but do doctors care? i mean.. im 14 so i dont see that it matters. but my mom doesnt know i do it, and i dont want the doctors to say anything
they wouldnt say anything would they?

You don't mention where you live, but in California, among other states, doctors cannot say anything at all to your parents about anything that they see or that you tell them without your express permission.

And no, doctors don't care.

I'm getting my tonsils out on February 15th. The day after that is a half day at my school, so I won't miss any school. Then I have the whole week off after that for winter break and I go back to school on February 26th. I think the doctor said it should be better by two weeks after they are removed, but he said my throat will still hurt for a few days after. The thing is, I'm in chorus and singing would just make it hurt worse. So what do I do about that? On the 28th my grade is going on a field trip and I really want to go, but I don't want to be uncomfortable. We've already payed and everything, so I'm going. Is there anything I can do while I'm there to relieve the pain in my throat so I'm not miserable for a whole week away from home?

Chloraseptic.

I took an IQ test a few minutes ago over the internet and my score was 125. I realize this is pretty good, but would it be more accurate (and higher) if I was 18+ ? I am only 15.

Not more accurate, but probably higher. I got a 132 today, but a year ago, it was like a 129.

I, too, am 15.

I am 29 yrs old. I dont have any friends.I have a wonderful boyfriend who is very outgoing and confident.Every now and then he says I need to make some friends. I cant. What do I do, call some girl up and say will you be my friend?? How cheesy. I go out with him where his friends hang out but no one engages conversation with me.They do for a minute then go. I am an attractive person that is not the problem. But how does someone who was abused as a child, not allowed to have friends, phonecalls or sleepovers, and a 10 year marriage where I was not allowed to work or have friends, change and get friendships. It seems so out of reach for me.Help!!!

I'm not going to lie and say that I empathize.

I actually make all of my friends from a few friends that I made in middle school. I suggest that whenever you go somewhere with your boyfriend, he introduces you.

And, yes, you could call up some girl and ask them to go shopping or do something else. I'd be flattered if someone I dind't know did that to me. :)
