I am pretty interested in learning how to knit. My mother has never been a knitter and I don't know of anyone who knits that is close to me so I do not have anyone to ask for instructions.
Some people have told me that knitting is hard, while others say that once I get the hang of knitting that it will be fairly easy. I heard that if I do not have a person to teach me how to knit then I'm hopeless.
I really want to know how to knit a blanket.
I also think it would be interesting to learn how to knit a scarf (or, rather, how to knit scarves).
Is there a way I can learn how to knit by myself? Any online helpful learning to knit instructions, a book (or books) I can purchase, or even instructional DVDs on how to knit. If you can explain how to knit, that would be great. Any information at all is appreciated. (link)

I can't say much about books as they confused me. I used knittinghelp.com & ravelry.com and still do.
I didn't practice my stitches. It didn't seem like much fun so I just went for the project I wanted to do. (Kitty62 Hat)
It didn't turn out bad at all. I just had to keep watching videos and writing down notes.
Also, I recommend learning the Cable cast on. Trying to figure out how much yarn to use for the long tail method is a pain.

Well, I convinced parents to get me one for emergencies.
But, I got a $20 Tracfone and prepaid minutes. I usually got about 90 minutes at a time. I used it only for texting.
I would make sure to not use all minutes in less than two months.
Now they're considering to get me something more fancy.

NOTHING WORKS. im going crazy here.) (link)

What usually works for me is taking Valerian root around a hour or two before bed.
To tire me more, I exercise; DDR, running, dumbbells, something. And reading works sometimes.
But when I'm bed, I like to keep the TV volume on low. The noise is relaxing. It's not so much distracting as music.
But I think the doctor won't disregard it. You don't feel well. It's getting in the way of doing your homework. You should go see the doctor.

Basically, it's friends that have sex and don't have an official romantic relationship.

I've had guy friends that straighten their hair. It was really short when curly, went past the chin when straightened.
I say do what you like.
If it still bothers you in some years, consider getting it chemically straighten.
And now I'm curious. Do you have any pictures of the curls?

I've done well with reviewing the material and writing important points over and over. I'd do this until I could write it all down from memory. Then I'd take a hour break and see if I could remember. This worked well for my Chemistry, English, and History classes.
Flash cards have also worked for me in Biology.
My friends prefer to discuss the material, right down notes, and then quiz each other for just about every subject.
You just have to figure out what works best for you.

im 17 years old, female, VIRGIN
this might sound gross, but i need to know the facts!
so i have some (kind of alot) of hair in-between my butt and well of course my vagina. i know that everyone usually has hair but i use to shave this hair and within a couple days i would get these white/hard bumps and i think they are like pimples and they hurt REALLY bad!! so i stopped shaving in-between my butt and occassionally my vagina. i dont get the bumps on the front of my vagina its like in my vagina, by the flaps area and in my butt. the thing is when i am ready to have sex or be physical with someone i want to be completely shaven but i dread the thought of shaving these places because i get these hard pimple-like things. they're not that big, maybe like the size of a skittle haha or smaller. i try to like squeeze them or something and sometimes something comes out, sometimes not and they dont always go away right away. they dont hurt when i dont touch them but when i try to get something out of it, of course it's going to hurt. any idea what these are, why i get them or the cause of them? does anyone else have this happen to them!?
well thank you [: (link)

Infected ingrown hair, perhaps? You should probably get it checked out by a doctor.

So my hair is sort of multicolored, I guess you could say. I was born with natural highlights and last year I got a blonde coon tail with blond highlights all over. So, my hair is a mixture of reaaaallly light blonde, honey blonde and really light brown. There are some people who dye their hair all one color and I think it gives it a more "smooth" look. Does it? or am I just weird? Sort of like these:

I kinda want a darkish brown? I'm not sure though because I'm really pale...anyways, thanks in advance!!!! (link)

I'm not entirely sure because the lighting in the photos. But I think auburn-brown would look nice on you.

I've been using proactiv for a couple of years already, but never have i had completely clear skin while using it. Just wondering if I should give it another try, given that my skin may have grown immune to proactiv already (.. if thats possible..), or should i switch to murad acne complex which is another well advertised acne treatment seen on infomercials? thanks for your help :) (link)

Go for Murad. I've read that if the product isn't working well after two month use, you should try something else.
