about
Just call me Calli.I like Jamie Bell and Cillian Murphy. I like Friday Night Lights and Desperate Housewives and Dead Like Me. I like writing, roleplaying in writing communities. I like reading: Harry Potter, Tom Robbins, Kurt Vonnegut, House of Leaves. I love House of Leaves. I like Adam Pascal in Rent. I like messing around in photoshop. I'm not too fantastic, but I like it. I like chemistry. I love Audrey Hepburn.
I dislike poetry. I dislike physics.
I am indifferent about Twilight.
I know nothing about romantic relationships. But I have friends. I have family. And I like them.
If that helps at all, there it is. If not, there it is.

My bf (18) does the cutest things for me. during school, he filled my locker with a bunch of balloons and chocolate and stuffed animals and confetti and when I opened it, everything came pouring out and a sign popped out that said i love you. Another thing he did was write cute little messages on a million rose petals that led to my front door. I constantly find little love notes in random places whenever he comes over or in my car. one time he wrote all over his body, supposedly to support his sister's soccer game and there was ink alllll over him and then at midnight we rode our tandem 2-seat bike to the lake and we swam and when he got out of the water, everything washed off except for I love you on his abs. He wrote everything but that in washable marker. The first two months we went going out, we climbed into a treehouse in his friends neighborhood and he took out his guitar and sang to me. He does cute things like this all the time and it just makes me feel so special and all i do is cook him food and give him back rubs sometimes. I love him so much and I feel bad like he does so much for me and i can't think of anything creative and cute and I really want to. I really wanna show him I care as much as he shows me. Nothing sexual, either. Any ideas??
Cooking is the way to a man's heart, so you've already got something good. Don't doubt that power. And you did say he gave you little love notes, well you could also write some. Draw pictures that say "I love you" and little things like that. You can give him small gifts daily, ones you madde yourself will show how you really care. Maybe you can make a mix-tape of songs that remind you of him and give that to him.
You could make a scrapbook even, or a collage of pictures of you and him.
The smallest things count.
Good luck!

How in the hell do I make banners?
I am obsessed with making anime banners but without buying photoshop. I want to just download a program and then figure it out. Whats a good program for stupid people? Seriously i am banner retarded. Icons too, i am the fail. I'm 18, a chick and really motivated on making sweet banners. Oh and my computers older so something that doesn't take up like half my computers memory would be molto bene.
Grazie, Adrianna.
Well, you can download some free software off the internet. Free photoshop you know? It may expire, but then you can download another version. Since your computer is old, then you might want to start out with lesser photoshops.
Then you can look on Deviantart.com for tutorials on making banners.
http://blue-n-fuzzy.deviantart.com/art/TUTORIAL-Banner-Making-1-26858236
seems like a good tutorial
or just look from these:

I've seen a bunch of other writers ask questions on here so I figured I'd give it a shot. I need a muse. I would said I'm a pretty observant and open-minded, but when it comes to the characters in my story I can't find anyone to base it on because technically my characters don't exist. I can't base them off myself because I'm just not that complex of a person. And finding someone who I like to base my characters looks off of doesn't fit the attitude. Who can I talk to about this? How do I find my characters? And why do people have to be different? it's aggrivating! (that last one was sarcasm)... anyway does anyone know a way to help me find the character's for my story? Besides walking up to total strangers and asking if they'll be my muse because I think I'll just scare people that way.

Most of my characters come from piecing together other peoples' characters. I have one named Matt Keel, who holds similarities to two anime and one detective show.
I also take a lot from the people I know. My own father is also a part of Matt. Actually, most of my characters' fathers take on a lot of similar aspects from my own father. My druggie neighbor became the inspiration for the "bad boy" in one of my stories, and the main character in another.
What you should do is listen to the people you already know more. Going back to my father, I know all about his past and his home life, and that also helps piece together others. Allow them to share their stories.
Also, read. A lot. If you find a few characters you really like, you can piece together a few of your favorite traits and make a whole new character.
Also, hearing where famous authors get their inspiration helps too.
I know of one who sat in a meadow and imagined up a character that would love to be there.
Hope that helps you. And good luck with your stories!

Hi, I don't know who else to ask about this and im really worried for my boy friend's life. Every time we have sex together he bleeds. Is that normal? i know girls bleed during there first time but i never heard of that happening to guys before.. is he sick? am i going to catch something? are we going to die?
Okay, I HIGHLY doubt you're going to die. But what I suggest is telling your boyfriend to go to a doctor, get some tests so you both know what's going on. He may have some sort of sexual disease but I really wouldn't know. A doctor would.
Hope that helps.

Okay I'm a girl...17.
I've been singing forever; I've won so many state competitions and even some national competitions...low profile though.
I want to make a demo...but I don't play anything.
I've written some songs...they're really good.
So I was wondering if I hired an accompanist and sang the songs for them...would they be able to help me write music for them? I know how I want the songs to go...I mean it's not just words.
But...would that be possible?
Of course it's possible. You do need the money, and the right agents and such, but it's fully possible.
Do you know how to read music? Notes? Dynamics?
Then it's easier AND you're a step above most artists today!

What subjects would you have to REALLY be good in to sucessfully become a counsolar. Im wanting to be a marriage and family counsolar.
Family and Consumer sciences, Home Economics, general Economics (in case the problem is money), perhaps a few Biology classes or Human Behavioral sciences. Psychology, sociology, anthropology.
Anything that allows you to understand the human mind on the inside and out, really.

I am sixteen years old, 5’6, and I weight 186 lbs. I know I am over weight and am trying to change that. What are some beneficial exercises I can do? I would like to lose thirty pounds total and I have little time. I know I need to change my eating habits to and am currently trying to eat only 1500 calories a day. Any tips or suggestions would be great:)
Try running a mile each day, doing sit ups and such. You don't need fancy equipment. And instead of just eating 1500 calories, try eating just less fatty foods (or 1500 GOOD calories). You know, get more grains and veggies and fruits in your system to raise your metabolism!
Hope that works.

i asked a question on whether or not it would be contridicting
and someone answered this
anarchy represents chaos and fighting, conflict.
but, like peace it's for change.
peace wants to change how people hate and disagree. anarchy wants to stop rules.
in the end, they both want freedom.
so would this make since?
or would it be contridicting?
i wanna get both,but i don't want it to seem ignorant
Anarchy isn't exactly chaos, it's just the lack of any formal government system. Which to most, would be chaos.
Some people believe that peace can be achieved by anarchy. And it can, if people can do it right. Its just the same as a Democracy or Communism, you just need the right people to do it right.
Now it would probably sound like a contradiction, but if you look deeper into it it really isn't. You're correct, all in all.

My mom wont let me wear makeup because she wants me to wait until im 16 like she had to do but like im pretty much old enough to wear makeup . basically every single girl in mah school wears makeup . and i ask her and shes like no your gunnah start wearing makeup when your 16 like i had to do . i dont get her at all . every summah while im in the Dominican Republic mah cousin does mah makeup and when my mom sees me with makeup on shes like omg you look so cute . and then i ask her and shes still says no and i get so maddd . >=[
Maybe she's afraid you'll apply it wrong and end up looking provocative (I have no idea how old you are now anyway). Maybe instead of just asking her IF you can wear make up, ask her to just teach you how to put it on and make it look nice. It might make her feel a little better.
Hope I help!

what are some of the place that i can work at if im 14
McDonalds, Nancy's. Most highly known chain fast-food place will hire you if you have a work permit from your school.
Mainly McDonalds though. You're more likely to get in there than anywhere else.

i want to make a webshow on youtube i will be singing and performing in some places and i want to post it and get alot of views but whatelse could i do? i need ideas to make a webshow interesting. what would you like to see in a webshow ideas would be greatly appreciated thanks so much!
You could give some music recommendations or other sorts of advice to people. Performing and singing can be tough, so you can also give people some tips on how to be confident on stage and such. Or maybe just some tips on the mechanics of your voice, or what songs are right for your voice.
Hope that works out for you. Drop the link, I'd love to see your show!

is there anything you can use so that when a guy goes down on you it doesn't taste bad or sweaty or anything? i want it to like smell and taste good but not like berry flovored or anything that would be obvious. my goal is for him to not know i used anything. thanks!!
Well, this is kind of an awkward question for me to answer but... I think the best think you can do is just take a shower right before the... deed and use regular ivory soap...
I need to read a book over the summer for AP Lang. Any suggestions?
Don't they normally give you a book to read?
Eh, well I'm taking AP Lang next year myself and they told us to read Francis Bacon's essays from the book of essays Of Empire. We also have to read an article called "Something About English" by Paul Roberts.
I think they want something nonfiction and philosophic. E-mail your teacher or the head of the dep and see if that's okay.
Good luck!

I want to get my hair cut like the girl on the right, but a little longer. Can someone help me find a better picture of it? thankssssssss!
Hm, well she's the one to put up the pictures. Maybe you could message her on facebook and ask for some photos of her hair. Better angles and such.
Hope that works for you!

YouTube has some great tutorials. And as for more pictures you can just use

You might also want to try teasing for someting new.
so i'm writing and essay where i'm paralleling my life to a fairytale. one of my family members has multiple sclerosis and i'm saying in my essay in order to reach your happily ever after you have to "bite into your poisoned apple" or "loose your glass slipper". now one of the most common symptoms of MS is optical neuritis, which is where your vision becomes blurred and everything looks really foggy and cloudy. can anyone remember a fairytale/disney movie where there is mist or something to that effect where the character cant see anything? Even if you're not sure, any suggestions would be welcome! Thanks in advance! :]
I was thinking Sleeping Beauty where she has all the fog around her while in a daze and pricking her finger. Or Snow White, poison makes your vision fuzzy I think...
Or maybe that Disney movie, not really a Fairy Tale, but if you've ever seen "Once Upon A Forest" with the mole (when he loses his glasses) or the little badger fainting. If you can do that, Secrets of Nimh is a good one too. The one with all the captured mice.
Hope that helps a bit : /

I have this friend
lets call her flower
Flower doesn't have a friend that is always by her side
I always see her lonely
But sometimes she "travel" friends
like ex.
one day she will be with these group of friends
then the next etc
Flower is a funny and cool person
I tried to be the friend who she's next to but
I feel shes like a superstar or too awesome for me
And I feel like she isn't comfortable with me I think because she's like a mature friend but then the funny person
I'm more of retardness friend lol
She even told me about how she is everyday at school
I tried to think of ways to help her make school funner for her but then i think what if it won't work what if it will?
I sound like a bad friend huh?
Thanks for your advice ! I am very grateful to you! :)
Clubs? What are some of Flower's favorite things to do? Maybe you can convince her to join a club, and maybe try it out for yourself so you she'll know someone in the club (if you don't like it you can always stop).
What can I say, school clubs and sports is the best thing. And don't be afraid to tell her your own ideas too, no matter how stupid. Just make a joke of it if it comes out wrong.
Sorry if I failed this. But I hope it helps!
