Q: In the song "Circle Circle Dot Dot" what is circle circle dot dot? i can't figure it out. thanksss!
Oh gosh I remember that song!

When I was in elementary school, my friends and I would sing that song and draw two circles and two dots on your arm, cheek, leg etc. and sing "Circle, circle, dot, dot! Now you've got your cootie shot!"

Supposedly that would protect us from boy cooties.

Wow, that was...six or seven years ago...

Oh the joys of being a beautiful third-grader... haha. Just kidding.

Supposedly if you did "circle, circle, dot, dot! Now you've got your cootie shot!" and a boy touched you, held your hand, or kissed you, you'd be protected from getting the vile and disgusting boy cooties.

Q: Is it true that if you print out a picture, can you iron it on to a shirt? I would think it would burn. o.0
You can only print out a picture and iron it on a shirt if you have the right kind of paper.

If you go to Michaels or another arts and crafts store, maybe even Walmart you can purchase iron-on paper.

Otherwise, yes, you could possibly catch the paper on fire, which would result in catching the shirt on fire... and that wouldn't be good.

Q: Alright, i just got a puppy, and hes 7 weeks old, hes a golden doodle mix (golden retriever/poodle), and he humps his blanket...and other random objects...hes only 7 WEEKS old...is that normal?

any advice you have, i'd appreciate!
thanks
Yep, it's normal. He may..or may not.. grow out of it. I have a Golden Retriever, who is a female, who still does that. Males are probably more prone to doing it though. He might stop eventually. Is he neutered? If he isn't, he may stop when he is neutered. Puppys start to mature sexually about 7 or 8 weeks so yeah, that's pretty normal.

Q: My knee has been like hurting lately.
When I say lately, I mean for about a 3 weeks?
It like hurts when I move it a certain way and cracks a lot.
Like yesterday, I barely bumped it on my computer desk.
And it hurt so bad, I nearly cryed.
Going to the doctors is not an option.
My mom thinks its all in my head.

What could be wrong?
My mom and I went through the same battle.

Of course there really was something wrong with my knees.

My knee would pop, and I could FEEL it popping with my hand on my knee every time I bent my knee. It hurt to walk, sit, stand, lay down - anything.

So I went to a doctor and the doctor said that I had tendonitis and that I should ice it and heat it and he gave me some home exercises. Yeah... that didn't work. So a few months later I went to a different doctor and she told me that I had Chrondromalatia Patella; which is a softening of the cartilage behind my kneecap. So we did an MRI and it came back completely normal. So we did physical therapy for a while and it got better. But then we went on vacation to DC and it got really really bad.

Turns out, I have a abnormal piece of tissue that is sliding under my kneecap, which is what is popping every time I walk. This condition is called Plica. It doesn't show up on MRI or x-rays. I had to go through a steroid shot under my knee cap - no pain killer, just a four-inch needle stuck in my knee. Then we ended up doing surgery. My other knee has the same problem and I'm having surgery on it in two weeks.

Since you don't know why your knee is hurting, it could be growing pains - but that is really unlikely, with the bumping it and for three weeks? Not likely, possible, but not likely. For the time being, and since your mom doesn't believe you, just take it easy. Get an Ace wrap and wrap it up or get a brace. My brace came from Walmart and it's Muller brand. That's what my orthopedic surgeon told me to use, and she told me a few places to get it, and those places were SO expensive. I got the same brace at Walmart for 20 dollars less.

If your knee is swelling then you should put ice on it. Even if it doesn't swell, but ice makes it feel better - ice it once or twice a day for fifteen minutes or so. Ice only helps for the first fifteen minutes it's on your body. After that all it's doing is freezing you. Take Ibuprofen or Advil as directed on the bottle. Something like Tylenol won't help with the swelling, and often the swelling is what makes your knee hurt so much.

If your knee is still hurting in a couple of weeks, mention it to your mom again and ask to go to your family doctor.

I sincerely hope you don't have to wait three years for a real answer, like I did. Get well soon!

Q: me and my boyfriend had sex about 3 months ago and i still havnt got my period.I have pains in my stomach really bad and bad headaches.My boyfriend didnt have a condem on him so we took a risk.I'm 15 and i can get a pregnancy test without my mom knowing.She doesnt know i even had sex.What should i do????????????????????



please help me!
You need to get your boyfriend to go with you and get you a home pregnancy test; or find a free pregnancy testing center.

If you recently had sex, especially unprotected sex, and haven't had a period - you are quite possibly pregnant.

I would suggest telling your mom though. I know you're only fifteen, but if you are pregnant.. she'll find out. Your mom is the best person to turn to, even if you don't think she'll understand - she probably will. Your mom cares about you and will be able to give you some of the best and insightful insight to being pregnant.

Q: later this week i would really like to go take my driving permit and i was wondering what kind of questions will be on the test? i live in massachusetts and i've looked at many websites so could i get some questions please. when u do get a driving permit does it mean u can practice driving with a parents?
I can't tell you the questions that will be on the test, because I live in Alabama. However, to prepare you for the test, you should get a Massachusetts State Drivers Manual and study it. Every single one of the questions that is on the test is taken from that book.

Having a drivers permit is classified as a learner's liscense. It has a restriction on it which states that you cannot be operating a motor vehicle without a liscensed adult [21+] in the front passanger seat. So, yes, having a driving permit means you practice driving with a parent.

[thewretchedmelody]

Q: Is there a way to bring up past conversations on AIM?
Only if you save the conversation.

You can save a conversation by clicking "File" then "save" and you can find a saved conversation the same way. But if the conversation wasn't saved, there isn't a way to bring it back.

[thewretchedmelody]

Q: Is it possible to get a blood blister on your vagina or under the skin that surrounds it?
Thanks.
Yes, I do imagine that is possible.
If you hit it the right way or rubbed it the wrong way or something, yeh, I imagine you could quite possibly aqquire a blood blister.
It's not entirely different from having a pimple there.

If it hasn't cleared up in a week, talk to your mom or trusted adult female, and suggest seeing a doctor.

Q: i want to dye my hair like avril lavignes here:

http://cdn.news.aol.com/aolnews_photos/07/06/20060716124909990005

how do you do it?
You may want to collect photos of her and take them to a beauty salon.

But if you're looking for a do-it-yourself thing; the easiest thing to do would be to get some washout dye like ManicPanic in black, reddish brown and blonde. Dye the bottom layer of your hair solid black. Dye the rest of your hair the blonde color and add [optional] reddish highlights.

I love to dye my hair, and I have been told that with straight, long hair I resemble her.

Well, good luck!

Q: i think i like a gay guy. i would ask him out if only he wasn't gay. hes cute but wears the same tight jeans that look like he got them out of the womens department everyday. i have no idea why he would wear that in the summer anyway. also with that outfit, he would wear a black shirt, black sneakers, volcom cap, and checkered belt. also only on one day he wore a different outfit. it was a marun (however you spell it, and if u don't no what i put, its that dark red and purplish color) shirt, plaid shorts, same belt and hat, and green sneakers. it looks like he took a pair of shorts out of my dad's closet. i don't know if hes gay or if he just doesn't have style. what do u think? and also i would like him if he wasn't "gay" and had better style. what should i do? thanks-♥
To me it doesn't really sound like he's gay.
It just sounds like he's stereotypically "scene." That's how scene guys sometimes dress. Tight girlpants, dark shirts/hats/shoes and checkered shoes or belts. Plaid as well.

It is his style and he probably likes it a lot.

It's not a good idea to judge someone on how they dress alone. If you don't know he's gay, you might just want to ask if he's seeing someone. If he says yes, ask who.

Also, keep in mind, he might have several pairs of the same jeans. I had two pairs of the same jeans last year just because they were so comfortable and fit me so well.

Be his friend. That way you can find out if he's gay or get close enough to him you can ask him if he is gay.

Or you could just ask him out. You'd find out real soon if he was gay that way.

[thewretchedmelody]

Q: I first got my period about a year ago, and I was 13. Since then it's been super irregular and I bleed for up to like 10 days. Is it normal?
Don't worry, I'm exactly the same way.

Most teenage girls are.

You'll probably be irregular for five years or so.

You might not have a period every month, and it will vary in length.

It's completely normal, you shouldn't be worried at all. I know a girl who got her period when she just turned eleven. She's fifteen now and sometimes still misses a month.

Just remember to keep tampons and/or pads with you all the time in your purse; just in case. When you go back to school, you might want to keep a jacket or an extra pair of underwear and pants in your locker - also just in case.

[thewretchedmelody]

Q: HOw do you know if your a good kisser?
I'd say you're a good kisser if the person you're kissing wants to kiss you more.

If he/she is trying to kiss you alot, or if you kiss for a long time and you're the one who pulls away first, you're probably a decent or good kisser.

[thewretchedmelody]

Q: I went out with this one guy for like, a year and a half, and never even kissed him. I just always thought of him as a.."oh were dating, but i dont want to "date him", kinda thing. So anyway, just a couple days ago, he called me up, and asked me to go out with him. (just to let you know, i dated him like, 4 years ago) Anyway, so i guess he still liked me, but i still dont think of him like that. I kinda said yes to the date, only cause i felt bad for him, but then i had to cancel.

How can i avoid things like this in the future? I really dont like him at all like that, and would rather remain friends.
So you just want to be friends; and you don't want to hurt him. The most hurtful thing you can do is lead him on. It just hurts more if you've been led on then told that they don't like you that way.

Be honest with him; if you don't like him "like that," just tell him that you're not seeking a relationship right now. Tell him that you'd rather be friends with him for the time being.

That will be the least hurtful thing for him.

Q: Alrighty so i just got my tongue pierced about 4pm today. And it hurt very much but i have my belly,nose,and a bunch in my ears. I wanted to know if i should be expecting anything? I know its gunna swell,because its starting to right now. But for how long? and i cant eat anything.When will i be able to? Any tricks you can tell me so it wont hurt as much? or swell as much?(it doesnt realy hurt THAT bad, but a little) So, any ideas or anything?

Thank you soo much!
Take Ibuprofen to help reduce the swelling, and eat foods that won't irritate your tongue - such as soup or applesauce. Your tongue may be swolen up to 10 days; but then you should be able to get on with your life. Here is a website that will help you fantastically with your piercing.

Q: I was wondering if anyone has any good ideas for a 2-5 person skit that would intrest people for 13 year old girls. Thank You
Writing down all the skits I've ever heard of would be an incredibly long, boring and hard to make your way through. I was a girlscout for nine years - I've seen more than my fair share of skits. So I've linked you to several sites that have hundreds of skits to browse through. Some of them might say soemthing about "scouts" or such, but you can simply change the wording if you like the skit enough.

Q: Okay this is really embarassing....I went to the movies with my boyfriend last night and we decided to see Nacho Libre...well halfway through the movie I had drank a large soda and I really needed to go ut I didnt want to miss the movie. So then this really funny part happened and I laughed until I peed my pants...I was SO embarrassed and I couldnt get up because I was afraid he would notice to when we went to leave the movie I just rapped my jacket around my waist. On the car ride home he put his hand on my thigh and squeezed...I was so happy! I've never really be touched by a guy (I know I'm a weirdo) and I'm really excited and like a a crazzed fan touched by their hero I'm not sure if I want to wash the pants. I know its gross...but would it be too weird to not wash them and keep them for sentimental value? I wanted to ask my friends but I was WAY to embarrassed to ask people I know. Oh my gosh pleaase help!
Oh wow.
That's awesome. I remember the day my boyfriend put his hand on my stomach as we were sitting side-by-side.. I swore that I wouldn't wash that shirt for my life. But then the worst thing possible happened - my cat threw up on my shirt while I had it on! I was forced to wash it. Which was sad for me, but I wrote about that day in my journal and drew a heart with Sharpie on the inside of my shirt at the collar, where it's thickest. That way I could always remember that day by the shirt and by what I wrote in my journal.

You might not want to was them, but you really should. Even if the urine dries, there are still the bacteria there and that's very very unhealthy. You don't want to get sick remembering that special night! So why don't you write all about it, how you felt, what was going through your mind, and what you wanted to happen after that in a litter to yourself, or in your journal. Then you can draw or write something in the waistband of those jeans to help you always remember. Then wash those jeans.

Q: hi im 15/f and my boyfriend 16/m andi are gonna have sex but i wanna kno is there a way i can make my down there smell better for him so it wont be all ew for him plzz help i rate high!
Some girls have yeast infections, which can be simply cured with a few pills or a cream, from your doctor. When you have a yeast infection, your dicharge may be slightly discolored, and it'll be thicker. It might look kind of like cottage cheese. It'll also have a foul scent.

If you don't think you have a yeast infection, try using purfume on your underwear and making a scented baggie of purfume to put in your underwear drawer like so :

take a Ziploc baggie and fill it 1/2 full of Epsom salts. Grab your favorite purfume and an eye dropper and put between 3-10 drops of purfume in the salts. If you want, get out the food coloring and add a few drops of food coloring to make the salt pretty colors. then seal the baggie then poke a few holes at the top of the bag. Be sure to set the bag upright in the drawer, so it doesn't spill, and be careful you don't bump it.

Try taking a shower right before you see him and using some really good scented soap. Then you can use lotion on your thighs and stomach to help too. Don't use lotion or your genitals though -- painful.

Q: I'm thirteen and I am 5'4", and i weigh 100 lbs. I used to be really thin with a nice, flat stomache, and i only weighed 87 lbs. I think the reason I weigh more now is because this year was kind of rocky so I started eating more and mroe junk food to get my mind off of it. I'm much happier now, but I can't get my body to resist the cravings for junk food 24/7. Please give me advice on how to stop junk food cravings.
Research shows that most cravings only last for ten minutes. If you can either do something else, such as go outside or grab a great book, or just get a healthy snack - you'll be much better off!

And according to http://www.am-i-fat.com/ you are underweight. Your BMI is 17, where "normal" is between 18.5 and 24.9, so you could actually stand to gain some weight; but you will be fine where you are.

I would suggest keeping your mind busy when you're experiencing a craving. Instead of running to the kitchen to grab some chips or a cookie; do some pushups, start a conversation with someone on AIM, message or comment someone on Myspace, pick up a book, or play with your dog - something to keep your mind occupied.

Q: This is long so be prepared...

I'm 13/f and I'm having trouble with my body image. I used to be overweight (about 2 years ago) but then my mom helped me get into a better diet and now I'm not SO overweight and fat. Over the past few months I've been starting to eat sweets here and there but I'm still exercising a lot. The feeling of "Oh my gosh I've gotten so fat" suddenly came on in the past month. I have even gained weight and I'm really, really close to being over weight according to the weight chart. I will admit that I'm one of those girls who says "I'm fat" in front of my friends and especially my mom and expect to hear "oh no you're not." So when I said "I've gained a lot of weight!!! GOSH I'm starting to get so fat again..." to my mom she didn't say anything like "you're over reacting...you look just fine." She simply said "well, you're going to have to work on that." I was shocked =O I couldn't believe that even she had started to notice (and in a way agreed with me) and now I'm starting to wonder if other people notice. So...I got really depressed about it...and said to myself "if I could just be skinny I'd feel so much better about myself..." I hate thinking that the only way to get thin is to just not eat. I also realize I'm putting how I LOOK in front of my HEALTH and it's bothering me that I am ignoring what becoming a semi-anorexic would do to my health. I'm not exactly "huge" but I do have plenty of extra pounds I want to get rid of. At the moment I'm really upset because I don't know what to do. When I talked to my mom she just said "well, you need to get back into eating healthy" but I am and it ISN'T WORKING. She also says "You are also over reacting about becoming anorexic. you're being such a drama queen." HELLO! I'M SERIOUS HERE!! and i don't plan on becoming skin and bones. I really need some advice on what to do...I'm worrying myself by the way I'm thinking! =[
Becoming anorexic is not the answer. People have died from anorexia. If you're anorexic, you can loose so much weight that you loose your period, even to the point that you don't have any breasts and your digestive system shuts down. Girls have been put in the hospital and have been physically unable to eat and had to be fed through a feeding tube up their nose and into their stomach. If you're anorexic for say.. eight months and loose 20 pounds; but then if you eat normally again you'll gain it all back, maybe even more, because your body thinks it's being starved so it stores away every bit of food possible.

The right answer is HEALTHY diet and exerscise. Lots of fruits and veggies and lean meat. Try to cut out eating stuff like hamburgers, steaks, bacon, and other fatty meats. Try to eat a lot of fish, chicken [not fried!], turket, and lean meat deer cuts.

Instead of grabbing a coke and three cookies for a snack, pick up a kiwi and some water instead.

There are more fruits than just bananas, apples, oranges and strawberries. Play with fruits, make your own fruit salad.

Exerscise is also key - but if you overdo it, you'll just set yourself back. Vary the exerscise you do, and start of slowly but keep at it.

Good luck!
