So I need to find a good female duet soon. Nothing from RENT or Wicked though because everyone does a song from that. It's for a Soprano and an Alto. Just 2 girls, no guys. Any suggestions would be AMAZING! (link)
sing "angel of music" from phantom of the opera
Hope i helped

I've been singing for about 7 years now, and I think it's time I started taking voice lessons. My mom insists that I have no natural talent. She's only heard me once, and at the time, I was so nervous that I didn't sound good. My mom said that if I had natural talent, then it would show up when I was a little kid. However, my choir teacher tells me I'm an incredible singer, and she's the type that never lies to make someone feel good. When I was a little kid, my chest voice wasn't so great and I didn't know how to use my head voice. I'm 13 right now, and a mezzo-soprano (though I have almost a three octave range). So do you have to be talented as a little kid to be a talented singer? (link)
you in no way need to have "amazing talent" as a kid in order to sing well as a teenager - and if you have a three octave range at 13 ... then yoiu have pretty good talent as it is - and your still a kid ... - take voice lessons and hone your talent ... NO OFFENSE but it sounds like your mom is kinda ...putting you down for no reason ... i have this problem too. I always sounf terrible for my mom - shes my worst critic - but i've learned to ignore it. Its just one of those things that comes with age. -
I'll look foward to buying a CD with your name on it someday - good luck

The song "I Write Sins Not Tragedies" by Panic! at the Disco came on the radio today and I noticed that they beeped out the word "God." Why is that? Is God not supposed to be on the radio? (link)
people get offened really eaisly ... its kinda stupid but the radio staion does it to cover its own ass ... it doesnt want to get sued


i scanned some pictures onto my computer. i tired to put them on my space but they come out to small so you cant tell who it is if its my default pic or if you go into view more pics you can only see them good if you click on them. how do i make them bigger? (link)
you can use a program like paint to enlarge them ... but they might look pixilated ( like fuzzy) - they will be bigger but not as clear - thats a sacrifice i dont know if you want to make -
hope i helped

I asked a question maybe 4 months ago. I got lots of answers. I just recently rated the answers, though. Do the ratings that I gave them count toward their average rating, or are they passed the one month time limit? (link)
yup they count ...its when you rate the question that counts ... not when they answer it ;)


hey, well i'm 13 and i just started my period for the first time last month. I'm a swimmer and I got my period for the second time today. Being a swimmer, i have to learn to use tampons. I tried one just now to see what it was like and to practice. It was uncomfortable going in but i got it in. Is there anyway to make it easier? Also, i couldnt push it completly in, there was about a centimeter sticking out, is this normal?

Thanks,
Paige

P.S.- I picked you because in your description you said something along the lines of "everything from tampons to ...." (link)
Ok yeah its normal for it to hurt a little - but its also important to make sure it doesn't stick out - if it sticks out even a little it will be uncomfortable and not do its job ... try getting some slender tampons ( the make special ones just for teens)
hope this helped

is a bmw the same thing as a beamer? (link)
yup :)


Do you think it is ok to ask a guy if he likes you. I mean like like you? (link)
Yeah if you both like eachother but he's just a little shy you should go for it ... It my not happen otherwise ;)
good luck

DOES any one know any good books, me as a teenager would LiiKE?? iiF SO TELL ME WUT THE AUTHOR iiS AND WUT THE BOOK iiS CALLED, AND PLEASE PLEASE GiiVe me a little summary of wut the book is about.
x3KayKay. (link)
A million little pieces is an amazing book and its an easy read. - The author has admitted that he made parts of it up ... but that doesnt matter because its still a good book- Its about a man who is a drug addict and an acholoic - and his stay in a rehab center- Be warned this book tends to use foul language- that offends some people so i figured you should know

I'm a junior in highschool & I'm taking the SATs this week for the first time. I'm nervous and I just need some tips. What should I keep in mind when I take the test? How long does it usually take to finish the whole thing? Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated. (link)
I know this will sound corney ... but these are the most important things to remember...
1) its only a test so realx... if your too tense you wont do as well.
2) You have seen everything on this test before... you know it ... dont cram ... that will just stress you out
3) the test usually takes around 4 hours ( give or take around 20 minutes to complete all the personal information)
4) make sure you bring a few snacks with you to tide you over ... the test usually starts at around 8 and doesnt end until around 12:30 so bring something healthy ( a granola bar and like a little carton of orange juice is what i used to bring)
5) DONT FORGET YOUR PENCILS!!! I know it sounds silly but i've done it ... ( other things to remember ...your admission ticket and a calculator)
6) last ...finally and most importantly You can take this test again ... and the colleges will take the best of all the scores (you can combine scores from different tests) So if you have a bad day dont sweat it ...

♥ GOOD LUCK ♥

what SPECIFIC major is for somebody who wants to become a newscaster? (like reading the news on tv, radio, etc.) thanks! (link)
broadcast journalism - that'll get you involved in TV and radio ... if you choose to go into a more specific newscasting ( i.e. sports ect.. .) you can add it as a minor , or depending on where you go, switch your major -

I'm a 17 year old female and I need some advice about getting my nails done for prom. I've never had them done before, so I don't even know what to expect. What I want is a french manicure on the arcryllic nails. Is this what I ask for when I go to the salon? And how long do my real nails have to be in order to have the fake ones put on?

I'll rate high for good advice. Thanks. (link)
You ask for a "ful set" they will put on the acryllic tips and usually they automaticly do a french manicure, but ask just to be sure.

your real nails dont have to be any particuar length for them to put on tips, they can do it even if you have any length to you actual nail.

hope this helped

my hair is so unhealthy. there is so much breakage and frizz. what can i do to get rid of it and make it look healthy and moisturized?

thanks..ILL RATE HIGH ;) (link)
The best thing for it would be be to cut it, but no one ever wants to do that...so i suggest trying frizz ease by John fredia or Pantne Pro-v
restorative treatments ...

♥ Pheobe ♥


heyy! soo i was wondering which would kill my hair less..like not giving it more split ends and making it unhealthy?! putting gel in it..as in scrunching it lol or straightening it? because i either have to do one of those each day and im TRYING to keep my hair as healthy as possible..because it just doesnt seem to grow and i am tryin to get it long! well thanks :]
i will rate anyone who answers 5!
(link)
Scrunching is better ... while the gel isn't great for it the straighting iron is worse . john fredia makes a product that is better for your hair than traditional gel unfortuatly its also slightly more expensive ...

my mom always hits me. i have scratch and bite marks all over me. how do i stop my mom from punching me? she always hurts me for no reason. i really don't know what to do. i'm scared. she never hits my sister. only me. and my fat pig sister always does the wrong things and i don't and nothing ever happens to her. help. (link)
ok... this is child abuse. You need to tell a teacher or someone close to you because this is serious. there isn't anything we can do for you here. Your mom probably need psychatric help as well as councling. You should consider thearpy ... good luck ... be confidant!

Okay...so I was on this site and it had like how too's! IT was sooooo weird...they said that you can use an iron (the one you use to iron clothes and smooth out) to straighten your hair. They say u can't use it often (i wouldn't try it) but does it work? (link)
it does work ... but its so bad for you hair and its also a lot harder to use but often it give you better results
