Q: yesterday i had a fever of 101.5..i thought it was just side effects from a chicken pox vaccine that i got a week or two ago..the lady told me that was to be expected. however, i was supposed to get better in a day. well, today, my temperature is 101.7. i have to sing on sunday at another church (a solo)...i have been drinking fluids and resting and taking ibuprofen but nothing is helping. in fact, my throat is hurting more than yesterday.
how can i get better in a hurry?
A: Sleep. A lot. It seems like you're doing all you can to make it go away, but rest will definitely help. Depending on what you have, it might be more difficult to get better right away, but I sure hope you do!

Q: What's an OOC? I keep seeing everywhere on journal site's and message boards that so and so belongs to an OOC and that it's fake, but what it is?
A: OOC can mean two things, although it stands for Out of Character in both. In RPGs (role-playing games) of the journal or text-based message board type, it means that the person behind the character they're playing is asking a question or talking about something real, rather than in the game.
In fanfiction, OOC means that a character in the story is acting not like they usually would - out of character. For example, if Severus Snape suddenly hates Draco Malfoy and loves Harry like a son, he is completely and utterly OOC.

Q: im 14..female and i weigh 124 lbs...i hav curves definatly...well im nto happy with my body..i want to be size 00 and small...all the guys like small gurls..i look like a cow in a bathing suit and am starting to get cellulate on thighs/butt...i feel fat in anything i wear now...my point is is that im thinkin about going annorexic...bc i have a really pretty face and a ugly body if i go annorexic i will be pretty...maybe not full blown annorexic..but like not alot of food...a little bites here and there...but not alot @ all...and not makeing myself throw up..just not eating....how soon do u think i will lose weight...plz dont say "dont do this blah blah" bc i just want to know how much weight do u think i will lose in 2wks? plz answer that ?!!
A: The thing is, starving yourself isn't going to work. Your body needs a certain amount of nourishment every day, and if it doesn't get it, it goes into starvation mode and starts collecting fat cells so that you dont fall over and die of starvation. It will, actually, make you fat.
124 pounds is actually a good size for a girl of fourteen, unless you are under five feet tall. I'm not too much older, and I'm over 150 and still look good.
If you really want to lose weight, join a sports team. I suggest your school's cross-country team - it's really good for your legs and helps you shape up. Lifting weights and doing strength training is also good for you and will help you slim down. Once you start excercising regularly, your weight may go up, but it's because you're gaining muscle, and it'll start to go down after awhile.
If you're really bent on the dieting, try just watching what you eat - make sure you're eating a balanced diet and not more than 2200 calories a day. Eat lots of fruits and veggies, especially.
Just remember - very few real people who haven't had liposuction are size 00. No one gets there without a little bit of surgical help or some serious health problems.

Q: well through out my life i have always been pretty sad and thinking how ugly i am when people all the time say im so pretty and everything i just dont belive it well anyways i never seem to be happy about anything and i dont know what to be happy about i guess im sorta depressing but love being happy and smileing but i never seem to feel that why ever can you tell me some things i should be happy about cause i dont know anything and i dont wanna turn gothic?
A: You could be clinically depressed. Take this test (http://nano.xerox.com/pair/cw/testing.html) to see if you might be. It's important that you have the resources and support you need to deal with things.
Also, try listening to what other people say about you - you probably really are pretty! Think about your good qualities, dance around to fun music, write poetry, work on developing some of your stronger skills. There's something cool about every person.

Q: well...i am a cutter. i have been cutting for about a year now. by the way i am 13 and female. i want to know why i feel so great after i do cut. its like nothing is wrong after i cut. i have tried to stop....but it has never worked.
also... do u know where i could find other people that are self addmitted cutters?
A: All right. From what I've heard, a lot of people cut themselves because they feel bad about themselves and the pain helps somehow. What you need to do to stop is fill your life with positive activities that make you feel good about yourself - without the cutting. Try dancing around in your room with loud music - it's a fun feel-good activity. You should also talk to your mom or dad, your school guidance counselor, a trusted teacher or a psychologist about your problem - they know all sorts of ways to make you feel better.
I don't know about where you could find other people with the same issue, but LiveJournal (http://livejournal.com) might be a good place to start - there are loads of communities dedicated to almost everything.

Q: A boy deep kissed(first kiss) me and i am very paranoid about catch HIV through kissing, but should i be worried?
A: You can only get HIV/AIDS through contact of either blood or by having sex. Plus, you can only get it from an infected person. So feel free to hug, smooch or hang around with anyone you want.

Q: Ok there's this one teacher at my school that i absoultly hate. She's my Spanish teacher and she's always talking about sex or naked people.. and sometimes it makes me really mad that she can't keep the conversation on Spanish so I get in huge arguments with her.. which is actually kind of funny =c). Anyway, I wanted to get back at her for all the times she's talked about non Spanish related stuff, and my friend and I were thinking about emailing her porn or other such stuff just for the heck of it. Does anybody have any good ideas to do to her or any comments? I'd appreciate all the help! **I rate specially for friendly people =c)**
Love, RacheL
((xoRachel))
A: I don't think you should do anything to her directly, but you ought to talk to your school administration. If she's talking about inappropriate things in class and you're not learning what you're supposed to, she could get fired.
Good luck!

Q: Okay, please Mods PLEASE do not delete this as I'm REALLY concerned!
Well, this girl at my school, she's not my friend or anything I don't know her that good, but she's pregnant. And, she's only 12. We're in 7th grade and all that, and she's expecting TWINS, she should get an abortion and all that but she wants to go through with it. At least that's what I heard, (I hear a lot of gossip. -__-;) Well, anyway, she also smokes and drinks, and she has purple hair and a ton of piercings, and I'm afraid if she goes through with it, her body won't be ready with all those drugs, and she's so young, and she might die...
She's got a pretty bad life, and nobody really likes her, but I still worry about these kind of things...and well, I'm not quite sure what to say to her to try to convince her not to do it. Can anyone give me ideas?
Sorry this was so long. =\
A: Refer her to a Planned Parenthood clinic (plannedparenthood.org) and get a trustworthy school official such as a guidance counselor, favorite teacher or vice principal to talk to her and her parents about it. Any good information you can get her will help!

Q: ok well i cut and stuff but i really want to tell my mom about it because i meen i want to get help but i just was wondering like how could i like talk to her about it? me and my mom are like really close and stuff but i think it would like kill her! should i tell her or no?
A: You need to be open and frank with her. Explain things in a calm way, along with your feelings and why you're cutting yourself. If you don't freak out, it'll make it easier for her.
The next step for you guys would be to talk to a psychologist or guidance counselor. Cutting yourself is a serious issue and there should be no reason you need to. A psychologist or doctor can prescribe a regimen or treatment for you to help you feel better, sometimes with medication.

Q: how do u get an icon 4 ur column?
A: Save an icon or picture you want to represent you to your computer. Then go into your settings and go under part III and find the part that says upload a picture of you and click browse. Find the picture you saved and click okay. Now save your settings.
This is the best way to go about things; if you use a picture that's on someone else's site without permission, that's direct-linking and direct-linking is bad.

Q: ive never had a b/f and im 13 but all of my friends have and they make me mad cuz they always say how great it is 2 have one but i dont like the guys at my skool cuz they judge me on how i look wut should i do 2 get a nice cute guy 2 ask me out?
A: Boyfriends are overrated. You really don't need one at thirteen; all you can do is hold hands and sit together at lunch, since neither of you can drive, really, unless there's a movie theater by your house or something. Plus, your time can be spent doing other, more fun things with your single girlfriends.
Trust me, you really don't need one. But if you do want one, find one you like based on his personality and get to know him - find out what he likes and stuff, so you know what you can talk about with him. Be yourself, too - you don't want to start going out and then have him realize that you're a completely different person than he thought you were!
One last thing to remember, though: if they're judging you on your looks, then they're not worth your time.

Q: ohh my how do you get rid of a large scab on your face in a mattter of a few days!! I really really really need advice, its not huge but, it just makes a difference and i feel like its all that people are looking at! Please help me!
A: Don't pick at it. It may seem like it removes the problem, but it'll keep growing back until it heals completely underneath, and you'll get a scar.

Q: i want to loose 4-up pounds in about 9 days. I really just want a flatter stomach but still wanna loose some punds. What can i do? Need all the help i can get. (Usally rate HIGH)
A: Try watching how much you're eating and get some exercise. However, be warned: you will not get washboard abs in nine days. I exercise five or six days a week for over an hour each day and I'm still not perfect.
The fastest way to drop some pounds is to try and watch carbs for awhile - what tends to work is eating pretty much no carbs for two meals a day and then have a high-carb meal for the third one. It'll power an active lifestyle, but help you lose a little weight. Suggested low-carb meals are scrambled eggs, chef salad, etc.
Over the long term, however, your best bet is to get plenty of exercise and eat well (eat your fruits and veggies too!)
