Hey! My name is Kathryn and I am 14. I live in a suburb of Chicago.

I would say that I am a very friendly, loving, adventurous, helping, funny, crazy, outgoing, kinda person.

Some of my intrests include hanging out and talking to friends, helping people, playing soccer, playing basketball, playing ddr, going online, listening to music, drawing, going shopping, reading, and watching movies.

I just love giving people advice and helping them with their problems...I want to either be a counselor or social worker when I grow up.

I try my best with answering questions, and I hope that I can help you!

ok recently, my relationship with my mom has gone pretty much down the tubes.... it always seems like ive done something wrong or shes just mad at me idk... i am pretty moody a lot and i get mad and storm off and then when i come back shes like giving me the silent treatment... its annoying me and whenever im in a good mood, she just like looks all sad which makes me mad.. idk its strange but is there anything that i can do??

13/f btw...

thanks (link)
The first thing I think you should do is try to calm yourself down to make yourself a little less moody. Then try talking to your mom. Ask her why she seems mad at you and ask what you can do to help her fix that. Tell her how you feel when shes like that and maybe ask her how she feels too. Once you guys have made up, maybe decide on having a mother daughter day where u hang out together. Me and my mom have those about once a month and it seems to help our relationship a lot.

Well I hope this helps

does anybody know of any type of sun tan lotion that helps to get tanned, but not get a sunburn too?



Hev (link)
Banana Boat is a good brand of suntan lotion to get. If you want to get tan but still be protected, just get one with a low spf like around 15-25 instead of one with like 30-45 because it will get you more tan. I also heard there are now tanning oils with higher spfs. You could probably get any of these at Walgreens or a local drugstore.

One of my dad's friends gave me a Texas Instruments TI-82 graphing calculator but no user guide to go along with it. I was doing some math homework and one of the equations had a base number then a exponent of 3. On the calculator I can only find the button to make the exponentto be a 2, how do I tell the calculator I want the number to the third power, besides typing in the number 3 times. thanks for any help and yes I did go to the product site and look at the user guide but it didn't help (link)
Use the carat button which loks like this: ^
For example 2^3 would be 2 to the third power or 4^5 would be 4 to the 5th power.

Good Luck

When I was younger I used to be really skinny because I stayed with my cousins a lot and we were always swimming, running around, or riding bikes. Since then I've gained a lot of weight cause I haven't exercised much. My stomach is flabby and my thighs are kind of big. I want to tone down before school starts up again in August.. so does anyone know any exercises I could do? I'm not saying I'm fat or anything but I've gained about 20 pounds in the past year and I just wanted to tone down some. Thanks. :)

I also have another question about this. I love to dance & I have about four movies that have dancing in them. Does dancing help tone you down any? (link)
Dancing is a great way to help you lose weight and stay toned because it is a cardio excercise. Cardio excersices help you lose weight. Some other cardio excercises are running/walking, jumping, bike riding, basically anything that gets your heart beating.

Good Luck

hey, im a girl, and i shave my armpits, but there is always this grayish area left. like i dunno how to make it look like just skin, like the rest of the girls do. i mean, it doesnt get mistaken for like not shaving but it still bugs me! please dont leave me mean answers. i really try and i dont want to hear anything you have to say if yur gonna be mean.

Try using a sharper razor so you don't get the gray areas. Also try using a smooth deoderant after you shave, like Dove deoderant.

ok my friend and I are going to babysit together. What would be a good price to have parents pay for our babysitting? there is 2 of us and we both need money. but also we cant charge too too much cuz then we wont get any bizness. also, is there anything else about babysitting i should know?

(link)
Hey! I am a babysitter and I charge $5.00 per hour (which is a reasonable price). Some tips are:
-never take your eye off of the kids especially the younger ones because they may cause trouble or get hurt
-ask the kids what they want to do, but then ask yourself if they would be able to do it when their parents were home, use common sense of what you an and can't do
-when you cook food always clean up the kitchen after you are finished
-right before the parents get back home try to clean up all of the toys or other things that you used.(sometimes when you clean up they will pay you extra $$)!!

Good luck

ok.. i share a room with my sister.. i have limited space but i have the bigger half of the room. my bed takes up most of the room. it is a daybed so it looks like a couch. it also pulls out inot a double bed. bu i only pull it out if someone is staying overnite. what i want is like a new desk, curtains, and a comforters. i am very girly. my room is going to be painted hot pink and brite green. i want stuff like ith those little pom pom fuzz ball thingys and butterflys. everything i want has to be not too pricey like not over 100 bucks each. and not that large well for the desks sake. i need to know like what stores. but like not stores like kmart, target, sears, bed bath and beyond.. different stores. with all the stores in this world. there has to be a good one. and also i know about pbteen and that is too pricey. so please help.

Rissa

p.s. i hate things being so crowded so not that big of stuff (link)
Go to Ikea definitely. They have everything there from like kitchen utensils to curtains to furniture. I know they will have something that you are loking for because when I redid my room I went there to get furniture and fabrics and they had everything that i needed. Plus everything is pretty inexpensive.
Check out http://www.ikea.com for more info.

i have a female problem my period is always unpredictable and i have been getting it more than once a month what should i do? (link)
This is completely normal. Periods are often irregular the first 1-2 years that you have it. For example you could skip some months and then maybe have it a couple of times per month. But don't worry it will get normal eventually.

my internet is going really slow and it wont load some sites, i was wondering what i can do to make it work faster and let it work better ? (link)
I'm sorry to tell you this, but u might have a virus. We had the same problem and we found out we had tons of viruses and adware on our computer. Try doing a virus scan and then if it shows up positive, delete them and then try downloading AdAware to delete the rest.

Good Luck
