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.



advice

I am an alto singer and would like to try out for my school's production of Into the Woods. We are not allowed to try out using a song from the musical and starting this year we must sing an entire song, not just the usual 15 bars. The past two years Ive sang the bars from Home- beauty and the beast, and popular- wicked. The problem is I cannot sing all of home and Im not confident in my voice for all of popular. I tried Fine Fine line- avenue q, but it is also too high by the third line. I could sing Not that girl- wicked. but its a tad boring. Help!

Do they have to be from musical theater?
I would try "Everywhere" by Michelle Branch.

I'm in an Oral Communications class, and we have to give a speech in a few weeks. I'm not shy about getting on stage or anything I just can't figure out what to do it on.

It has to be a demonstration on how to do something. A.K.A a how-to.

But I don't really have any good ideas yet, and I need to get started. My only idea is to do something with my guitar cause that's really my only talent, but what do I do? If I used my guitar I can't really explain to everyone how to do certain chords. It just takes practice. So I couldn't really do that.

So... any other ideas?

Just pick something simple, like making a PB & J sandwich or reading basic music.

OKAY so my school serves pizza, EVERY DAY, and I'm on a diet there for I bring my lunch every day. BUT the thing is I don't have a microwave, so I can only take items that don't have to be heated! I have been taking a ham sandwich for two weeks with one small bag of sun chips.
SO my major isue is what else can I fix, that is diet appropriate, yummy, and non heatable.

Please see let me know if there's something that would be suitable for my situation.

THANK YOU :D

All of the stuff below me is not actually healthy.

A lot of people at my school bring salads. I actually eat Cheerios for lunch every day (since I was like 4). Other people bring different types of sandwiches or they just go get food during lunch (juniors and seniors can leave our campus at lunchtime).

Four score and seven years ago, none of us were born but I knew Id when this race.

It is my dream to make this year a year to remember for us all, with all voices heard and ideas shared.

No one cares about you as a person. They care about what you'll do to get the job done and do well.

Say what you'll do.

I'm the president of my whole school, so let me know if you need more help.

i turn 16 in about two weeks and my birthday is ona tuesday. i was hoping to have some kind of party that following weekend. i have like no money to spend at alll. but i was hoping to get a party bus and just have everyone pay like 10-20 dollers to come onto it. so it could pay for its self. i would like to have a sleepover but my mom is very nosey and would be in our buiness all night. also, alot of people at my school like to drink, but i hardly do so i dont want to have any drinking. so what are some fun sweet 16 party ideas, including guys and girls or just girls. about 30-40 people.

Do NOT, under any circumstances, ask your guests to pay for your party.

I had a carnival theme and I rented an inflatable Twister game and got a cotton candy machine. It was amazing. My guy friends AND my girl friends loved it.

how do you tell your hair dresser you want wispy ends, they don't seem to understand the phrase, its like a pixie-cut's ends, like its all wispy. i don't know how else to put it and to describe it, any help will do.

I don't know what it's called, but ask your hairdresser to hold his or her scissors vertically and cut into your hair.

are bare minerals make up a good make up to covver your ugly facE? i meant MY UGLY FAC like i have lots of blemishes and ugly dark spots.


can this cover it?

When I break out during that lovely time of month, I need to use a lot to make my skin look even and flawless.

However, when my skin is clearer, the foundation with mineral veil looks amazing.

It should help with the dark spots.

What do you think of a girl who wears a tank top,neck tie and a short? cute or not?

If you want to be mistaken for Avril Lavigne, go ahead.

I thought that was out already. I guess LA is just ahead of the world.

when she was using blacktrack fluidline at the beiginnig, wasnt it like a gel eyeliner so, how come it came out as a cream eyeshadow?

how do you pull that off

I use Fluidline. Basically, it's like a cream.

Gel eyeliner isn't really like a gel at all. Go try it for yourself at a MAC counter.

Would it be worth it to spend $40 dollars to get to New York to take this job as an extra? I'd get paid $150+ per day. but extras usually have very long hours. Also, I'm 16 so I'm starting school soon (September) where I probably can't do it other than Saturdays and Sundays...

If they'll actually pay you, then yes. You'd make more money than you spent, so it's technically worth it.

There is a LOT of downtime for extras on set, and you usually don't meet celebs, just so you know.

okay i've been looking around NYU's website and although i'm only a junior in high school i'm trying to prepare for college stuff early. i'm thinking i want to go into journalism but i'm getting really confused by looking at their website. if i want to take journalism (as my major) what classes do i take? and if i want to be more focused on something like media criticism (or whatever) would my courses be different? or would i have to get a degree in journalism then go back for a more specific focus? and whats the difference/meaning of a BA and a MA?

It's more concentrated in terms of how you'd use your degree rather than what you'd write about.

For example, someone with a Radio/TV (or Communications or Broadcast Journalism) degree would take classes in TV or radio or newspaper or whatever else they wanted to DO with their degree.

Maybe you'd take A class in media criticism, if the school offered one.

A BA is a Bachelor of Arts and a BS is a Bachelor of Science. You get one of these after about 4 years of school. It's a regular college degree. An MA is a Masters of Arts. This requires more than 4 years.

I'm really scared to sing in front of a crowd but it's my destiny to be a star performer. and my class is doing a school talent show and everybody in the school is coming to see it. what should i do?

Quite frankly, if it were your "destiny" nothing (including stage fright) would stop you.

Sing in front of the guy or girl you like the most. Or the people whose judgement you care about the most.

Once you've sung in front of them, singing in front of other people will be easy-peazy.

whats a kabuki brush and why is it good

Kabuki brushes are full-coverage brushes. They deposit a lot of makeup onto your face rather quickly. They're good for mineral foundation and blending blush.

is it true that good quality products comefrom expensive products?

like for examly makeup

if i buy a 5 dollar eyeshadow for a smkey eye, a 34 dollar one would be better?

true or false

i dont get it..

why?

You get what you pay for.

My MAC makeup is so easy to work with. I love it to death.

However, my Sephora brand eyeliner ($4) is my absolute FAVORITE thing. It works so well.

Generally, eye and lip stuff is okay to go a little cheaper on.

For foundation and concealer, more expensive will probably get you better quality. I recommend Bare Minerals.

So, a Chorus Line is having Mario Lopez in it. Two Questions:
-Is he going to be in all of the shows until it closes on August 17th?
-What is the chance of him not being in one particular show and can I know this ahead of time?

He has an understudy.

They usually will not release that information until the day of.

I'm 14 and getting braces and I need to get 2 bicuspids pulled. Does getting them pulled hurt? I had 6 baby teeth pulled when I was 8 or 9, and they gave me laughing gas and some other stuff and I didn't feel anything. But is it different for adult teeth? How long will they hurt after I get them pulled?

I had all 4 of my wisdom teeth pulled about a year and a half ago.

If you eat lots of cold stuff afterwards (like nonstop...literally) then you probably won't swell much.

Mine didn't really hurt because of the cold stuff and Tylenol with Codeine that they gave me, but everyone's pain tolerance is different.

hey!
I need slogans.
I'm running for president on monday (don't think that I'm not prepared, I've been working all month, my only problem is that nothing rhymes with my first or last names... I've tried sooo hard.
My first name is angie, and my posters are all pink, I still need a few more poster slogans, so if you have any ideas let me know.
I'm super energetic, have a ton of spirit and really creative and I do alot for student council. I want people to know all that, but my speech will do that for the most part. I'm trying to think of ideas, but I'm pretty much all out. Please help, it'll be greatly appreciated!!

Hey, im 14/f and Im Thinking about getting hair extensions, I mean my hair isnt that short It's like on my shoulders, But I would like it to be longer, Like Middle of my back/a little bit above my butt.
But I just need to know 1) Where do you get them. 2) If I should get clip in or glue on 3) If they do it at hair salons

Thanks so much

Some hair salons do it.

I recommend clip on ones, since you can use them over and over and they are less permanent.

I have a blond streak, and I love it.
