ive heard about the sims before, but i was ever really interested in it until recently. is there a website that i can find a list of all the sims games?, because i know theres different versions of it. ive heard about the sims 2 pets and the sims 2 h&m fashion stuff. they both sound interesting. from someone who has played them, are they worh buying and fun to play? what can you do in them? what are some other fun sims games like the pets and h&m one? that was kind of a lot of questions in one lol, but thanks so much!=] (link)
Well to play almost ANY Sims 2 games you need The Sims 2. They are EXTREMELY fun. My favorite is the Sims 2 Business because you can buy a whole mall and open stores in it. They're quite pricey but definitely worth it :)


ok... a while back, when Panic! at the Disco came on MTV, my friend Ashley started listening to some of their songs. She was really excited to show me, and I liked their songs. A lot. She realized this and claimed that I was "stealing songs from her". She says she knows that she doesn't own the band, but she just thinks it annoying. So when Panic! at the Disco died down a bit, I tried to find some songs of "my own". One was an old song from Fall Out Boy's Take This To Your Grave, which was pretty much unheard of to my friends. My friends liked that song and I didn't mind, but they acted sort of like they found it first and started listening to the rest of the album, but if I liked any of those songs, they'd get mad. Jessica told me that Ashley even told her (Jessica) not to let me borrow TTTYG when she bought it (but she let me anyway)... Now I have found more songs, most of which Ashley now "loves". I also found a new band, This Providence. I liked it because it was a band which wasn't very that well known, all to my own. I now know how Ashley felt. But I didn't act the way she did when she liked those songs that I found. We still like to show people our favorite new songs, but we expect people to be impressed, really, not to take the song. I showed her one song from them and all of a sudden she loooved that song. She told people that she only liked 2 songs from them, but then she later called me and requested a burnt cd of them. I didn't really say anything, but I felt all... territorial. Like "They're Miine!" I hope at least SOME people know what I'm talking about and how I feel, but I don't know what to say to Ashley. (link)
Tell your friend she over reacted about the song because music is made so EVERYONE can listen to it. I love it when my friends listen to the same songs as me, that way we can listen to them together and sing them together in gym (long story). Anyways, don't worry if people start listening to the same stuff as you, just be happy. But if they start being snobby about it (like those girls you mentioned) then call them out on it.


here is a picture of my dresser.
http://i13.tinypic.com/66dze2v.jpg

I'm looking for a new bedspread to match.
Can someone please help me find one and send a link. I DON'T want any designs like polka dots or hearts or something like that. I want kind of plain but not to plain that it's boring. And purple is my main choice of color but I guess another color is okay as long as it's not red.
Thanks so much!

It's really purply, it's a comforter cover (duvet) so if you get sick of it, just take it off! It's sold at Delias and they also sell the matching sham, sheets, pillowcases etc etc etc!


i have a boyfriend. so if some guy asks me out or says he likes me, i can just say, "sorry, i have a boyfriend." but sometimes they ask me, "would you go out with me if you & your boyfriend break up?" and i never know what to say! if i say yes or maybe, my boyfriend might hear about it and get upset. but if i say no, that just seems kind of mean. and usually the guys who ask me this, i just like as friends. but i dont want to hurt their feelings. what should i say? (link)
Just say "Well right now I really like my boyfriend and I doubt we'll break up anytime soon so just don't stress about that right now (then give him a small smile so he knows you're just being polite)."


whats the point of letting someone in your life if they just gonna walk out of your life eventually? why do people always have to leave? (link)
It's just how the world works. Just remember, whenever an old door closes, a new one will open.


sorry didnt know what category!
i have kind of a crooked smile..like not in person just in pictures and stuff. i never smile with my teeth showing because i have braces and it just looks weird i dont like it. so i smile like you know just with my mouth closed. i was wondering if there is any way to make it not look crooked in pictures, like something i can do on photoshop or picture editing, or just like a website where you can like you know drag things around, haha i mean like being able to pull my lips up more so i dont always look so sad in my pictures. i have some picture editing things, but theres nothing in them that will do that. thanks a ton! (link)
Well this isn't really answering your question, but it's an idea that would be much simpler.


Just smile with your mouth open, go to MS Paint and just fill in the spot where your braces are, with white! :) That way it looks like you don't have braces. And if people question you about it either tell them what you did or say don't worry about it.


okay, i really want to get extensions because i'm really tired of having medium length hair. i want my long hair back. but. my hair takes FOREVER to grow. it's been five months, and it's still the same length. i just wanted to know if extensions are worth it. the money, the work, etc. should i get them, or should i just wait for my hair to grow on its own?
i'd like personal opinions, or experiences [if you have extensions].
please & thankyou. (link)
Well since it's been 5 months you probably have tons of deads ends (AKA, your hair isn't gonna grow unless you trim often.) So I would say, go get it trimmed once every other month OR once every month so it will grow faster. But if you really want extensions, then go for it! It's not like it's permanent so it really can't harm your hair. Just make sure what you get isn't going to look like trailer trash :P


My hair is really dry and damaged.
I straighten it everyday.
I know that ruins the hair and everything, but if I don't, it's VERY poofy/frizzy and just looks awful.


So does anyone have any shampoos, conditioners, or hair products that would be useful for my hair?


Thanks in advance. (link)
Shampoo-Pantene Pro-V Frizz Control. It works great and smells great aswell.


Heat Protection Spray-Dove Intense Damage Therapy Spray. It works REALLY good, I have gotten rid of almost all the frizz in my hair!


um im getting teen vogue for the first time.. is it a good magazine for 13 year old girls? it looks pretty sophisticated but i got this deal in the mail and it looks pretty cool.. but i need some opinions. like in the deal i get 12 free issues after paying 10 dollars and i also get a free cute looking bag. i put the stuff im supposed to put in the bag, but on the letter thingy im confused.. how do they know where the mail came from? how do they know where to send it back to? it doesnt say my house number or anything.. i dont want to just mail it and not get anything back! so like.. is it supposed to be that way and theres some secret method how they know which thingy goes for your house or do i just write in a random spot my house location? thanks!

and what types of styles are in teen vogue normally? and dont tell me to go on the site.. i did but... idk i just like peoples opinions better. (link)
I got the same deal...and took it! Actually I think I got the deal where it's 10 dollars for a 2 year subscription + the bag. It's really worth it :) The magazines are amazing and they aren't too sophisticated for you, trust me ;)


EDIT:No, you don't have to write you address down. Just fill out what ever needs to be filled out, stick it in the envelope and throw it in the mailbox, kapeesh? :P


I've worn contacts during the day, every day, for about 3 or 4 years now. I only wear my glasses at night, when i take my contacts out. But I have an infection in my eyes and I cannot wear my contacts anymore. It may sound like a ridiculous question, but I have honestly noticed I get way more attention without glasses (not to sound all snobby) and ever since I have had to wear them lately, people give me strange looks. I'm not saying I care what everyone thinks, but everywhere I go I just feel weird, simply because I am not used to glasses at all. My question is, for those of you who wear glasses or anything, how do you make it appear that your not like insecure, like I dont want to seem as if since I have glasses that I am self conscience? Also, where I work I have a lot of friends (hot, guy friends :P)and I just honestly dont feel as pretty anymore. Please dont answer my question and just go on and on about how shallow I may be sounding, I dont mean any of this rudely or dissing people with glasses. They are just not for me and hard to get used to. Thank you tons in advance! (link)
I had the EXACT same problem a couple weekends ago. One of my contacts was defective and I was out of town so I couldn't change it so I had to wear my glasses everywhere and we went a bunch of places. I HATE MY GLASSES. I felt insecure but eventually I just forgot about them and when you forget about them, you can't feel insecure. So don't worry too much about them and just be like you would when you have contacts on :)


14/f

I really want to get side swept bangs, but I don't know if i'll like it on me!

I think they are really cute and I want to take a risk... but i'm just really scared that it'll turn out bad and that i'll regret it. HELP!!! I keep chickening out! (link)
I had the same problem. I decided I needed a change and that's what I got! I was sooo nervous that they would look horrible. But they turned out sooo much better that I ever pictured. So just don't worry, if you don't like them, put them up in a "bump" everyday or wear your hair in a ponytail with them pinned back.


how do you get peach or rather a baby pink colored lips?. (link)
I love those colors on lips. Just use a nude lipstick and if you want them to be shiny apply a coat of lip gloss after you put the lip gloss on. I recommend Liquid Smackers, it has good flavors and lasts pretty long. As for the lip stick, I never use it so I don't know of any to recommend.


Okay. I kind of need a quick reply, please...

My best friend went out with a boy (we'll call him Shawn) for 7 months. She was head over heels for him. But then while she was on vacation he called and broke up with her through a VOICE MAIL.

Well, her best friend (we'll call him Mike) was there for her through it all. Now, being a bystander in this, I could tell mike had feelings for her. And recently he asked her out. Mike and Shawn were best friends...and as soon as shawn found out he began calling my friend wanting her back. It's been 4 months since they broke up, and I think he just doesnt want her with Mike...what should she do? (link)
Well she should follow her heart. Tell her to write down pro's and con's for each guy.

But if you want to know what I would do if I where her, then read this:She should go out with Mike. Shawn broke her heart and he doesn't deserve a second chance UNLESS she still has feelings for him. After all what he did wasn't the worst thing in the world but it's still not excusable.


ok i want to re-do this question.. if thats ok with you.

I'm currently using Fructis sleek and shine shampoo and conditioner and I don't know why but I don't want to use it anymore. I want a change. Before, I asked you what brands you think are best. Well after reading some of the answers, i did research and changed my minds on some of them.

Pantene IS bad for your hair because they put chemicals in there, and after you use it awhile, your hair starts to turn bad.

Suave is NOT good because it dries out your hair and is cheap

Herbal Essences- Doesn't really do much except make your hair smell nice.


sooo that leaves me hanging by Dove and Sunsilk.

I NEED HELP! if you think that any of the information i've given is wrong, then please explain to me! I don't know why i've become so interested in shampoos but I really want to know what brand is healthy for you and what brands are not.

Any other brands that you want to tell me about that you think work great.

All i'm looking for is something that can make my hair less frizzy, smooth, shiney, soft and great smell.

my hair is straight but sometimes it can be a little wavy, it's allways frizzy. (link)
TRUST ME. Pantene is NOT bad for your hair. I've been using it for forever and a little longer and my hair is perfectly healthy. I just recently went to get my hair cut (recent=a few days ago) and if something was wrong with my hair, my hairdresser would not be afraid to tell me and he didn't say a WORD about my hair so I'm 99.9% Pantene has done nothing to it. Now if you still don't believe me use Thermasilk, it makes your hair smooth and gets rid of some of the frizz. I've never tried Dove or Sunsilk so I have no advice for you on those.


Hey. Well, just simply-would you all rather buy a Coach bag or a Marc Jacobs bag?

Here's a Marc Jacobs bag I'm comsidering. What do you think of it?

http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/2939291/0~2376779~2374605~6007363~6007366~6007371?mediumthumbnail=Y&origin=category&searchtype=&pbo=6007371&P=1

Thanks (link)
I'd prefer a Dooney & Bourke but since I'm choosing between Marc Jacobs and Coach, I wuld have to sayyy Coach. 1 because they're cuter. 2 because they're cheaper haha.


Hey! I was wondering, what are some really cute and flirty perfumes? Also, can you tell me where i can find them. Prices arent an issue, as long as its under $100. (link)

Real-American Eagle
Amber Romance-Bath & Body Works
Malaia-Hollister
Nollie-PacSun

I have under eye cirlces!!!

here's a pic. of my eyes


http://img514.imageshack.us/img514/9/eyesrg0.jpg

how do i get rid of them?

thanks (link)
Just use a basic under eye concealer. Like Neutrogena or something like that. As for your eyebrows, just pluck the one on the right a teensy bit and they should be fine. No need to spend 15 dollars to get them waxed when they aren't that bad :)


what's a good shampoo/conditioner hair product?

I've heard these work good-

Herbal essences
dove
sunsilk
fructis
suave

My friend said that pantene actually makes your hair worse and fall out!!!

if you can, please rate how well each hair product i've mentioned is. thanks (link)
Pantene is my savior. I love that shampoo to DEATH. It got rid of 50% of the frizz in my hair.

Herbal Essences-7/10
Dove-I haven't used it.
Sunsilk-Haven't used it.
Fructis-6/10 only used it once so that's not a very accurate rating.'
Suave-7/10
Pantene-15/10



im just starting to grow breasts and im starting to get pubic hair. 2 days ago i felt something wet in my underwear so i went to the bathroom and it was this white stuff. its really starting to annoy me because it wont stop leaking. its sort of stopped now but is this normal?
thank you bunches (link)
It's called discharge. If you don't want to get get pantyliner, just go in the bathroom and wipe off your underwear a little and if you have a blowdryer, blowdry them so they aren't wet. I know it sounds wierd but it really works.


Lay 'em on me girls! I want all your beauty tips - no matter how weird! Of course the guys can help too, but I though this would be more up the girls' alley!

What I mean is - I recently found out how amazing you look after tanning, or what a HUGE difference tweezing your eyebrows make! And if someone would have just told me this sooner I could have saved myself a lot of tears, i look 10 times better now and in 10 days I've gotten more boys than I ever have in my life! (i used to be bullied, boys wouldn't even look my way!)

So help me - tell me what you've got?! Any discoveries that completely changed your life (or atleast your look!) ?

Thank you! It could be anything from eye-make up to ... well, anything really. Haha :)

Thank you and have a good summer! (link)
Let's see....never sleep in makeup. It will save you tons of acne. Also wash your face and when you dry it, pat it dry, no scrubbing dry, just scrubbing when washing. Don't tweeze off the top of your eyebrows....and that's about all I can think of at the moment.
