about

My name is Devin Lindsey or Vinny as my sister calls me! I am 17 years old and go to Bethel Park High school. I loooove swimming along with dancing, singing, and playing softball. I also run varsity track with is alright i supose too.

My favorite colors are orange, pink, and blue. I love to be crazy and have a good time

I've had a job working for 15+ monthes so I can answer alot about that

and I know alot about relationships in general so I can be helpful with that sometimes

especially with parent child relationships

I am a very observant person and tend to know more and care about more than most my age

and I really believe in volunteering to help animals especially at shelters. Usually its not their fault that they have to live their and its usually horrible cercimstances that bring them there and I feel terrible that they can't speak for themselves and people are too caught up in spending like $500 on this cute little pure breed puppy from a breeder just into getting rich instead of giving one of these dogs another chance at life (there are usually a handful of dogs under a year old so the i want a puppy excuse doesn't work with me)

My baby is named Lainey Mae... we got her from a shelter about 2 hours away from us when she was 7 weeks old. she is now 2 years old and the center of our family. unfortunately someone was cruel enough to go down and drug up and shoot (but luckly not kill) most of the dogs plus rob the owner (just like someone did at the shelter where I volunteer) and its now shut down

advice

Everyone says American Eagle is the best store, but personally I hate it. All of their t-shirts are basically the same things with different words and colors. A lot of their clothes are really bad quality. I bought a cami from there once and I only wore it once and a HUGE hole ripped and I wasn't even running around or anything. It may be a little cheaper then Abercrombie & Fitch or Hollister, but atleast if you buy something from A&F or Hollister, you know the clothes are going to last. American Eagle's clothes arn't the most attractive things, and they look cheap. What do you think about AE?

I like the store alot personality. It orinated where i am from and have always though things are good quality for how cheap they are.. i mean basically all of the shirts are under $20 and go on sale very soon after they come out and there jeans are usually under $40 which is nice.

i have acually had worse lucky with hollister and AF. I bough and $80 bathing suit from AF earlier this year and both the top and bottom already broke and all my shirts from hollister are so thin they rip easily

whta i would do is save your reciepts.. they will try to help you out if you go in there calm and friendly, explain what happen and show them your reciept. and as long as you bought it within a month or so they should be happy to exchange it for you or give you some sort of refund.

what are some different food choices that are high in protein but arent meat? i dont like eating meat very much except for chicken which i have all the time and an occasional cheeseburger.

THANKS SOOOOO MUCH!

eggs, tuna i believe, some fruits, peanut butter

So my friend told me that verizon to verizon texting is free. Is that true? I know verizon to verizon calls are free but not texts.

Thanks in advance,
Whitney

yes as long as they are "IN" but not every verizon person is in. as long as they live near you chances are they are "in" but places in the middle of no where and what not aren't always in. if you go online or to the verizon store they can give you a map on what places are in

What is the difference between body spray, like secret body spray, and deodorant?

body spray is more like perfume that just makes you smell prettier

deoderant acually helps stop body oder and you put it on with body spray

okay i know the whole body mass thing where you multiply stuff by some decimal and i know about what you should be for your height ... but i wanna know by appearance if im considered "chubby" ... im 5 foot or 5 foot 1 ... and im 130-ish pounds?

i dont understand how that could be because i dont think im fat ... my stomach doesnt stick out all that much, i dont have huge boobs, and my legs arent fat, just curvy. i dont eat more than 1000 calories a day. i dont eat junk food or drink soda. i dont eat big portions of carbs or anything else really.

i dont understand how i weigh so much! somehow i gained 10 pounds.. last year i weighed 120 and for the most part i looked the same as i do now (i didnt get any taller either)

when im in jeans and a tee shirt my legs look good and so does my stomach so i really dont understand! does anyone else have this issue?

well only eating 1000 calories is your main problem. if you eat under 1500 your body basically shuts down and thinks it is straving and starts preserving fat

i am your height and i weigh 115 pounds and i am always refered to as a little on the chubby side if that helps, like in a bathing suit anyways. once i put clothes on i am not really that chubby but losing a few pounds wouldn't hurt.

I drew something that I'd like to go on the back of my iPod. I don't want it to get ruined by anything. So how can I get it laminated? And would super glue keep it on there?

I don't know how to do this. Is there any other way to get it on there?

I believe you can take it to any print place to get it laminated for like $1. also you can get a laminater at walmart for like $15. I have one and it works pretty well. Also i wouldn't use super glue because that would ruin it. I ould suggest rubber cement

Also there is stuff you can buy called modbodge or something like that and its a crafting sealer that you could use to seal it on your ipod. it will give it like a laminated straight on to your ipod feel and could possibly be peeled off at one time if you decide you don't want it there!

Okay, weird, I know. But some girl told me if you masterbated with a banana or a cucumber that when you have sex with a guy for the first time it won`t hurt cause your hymen will already be broken. Is this true? Muchhhh love

It could be true but certainly is a very bad idea! I had a girl at my school do it with a hotdog and it ended up getting stuck there and not only did she have to go to the hospital to get it out, within a week everyone knew about her embarassing story.

about how much are digital cameras? thanx in advance

it depends on what you are looking for. decent ones start at $100 and can go up into the thousands. I got a fujifilm one for $100 at walmart plus $40 for another memory card and i would have to say it is perfect for my personal needs.

Well, I'm home alone alot, with my brother thats only ten, and i need to learn how to defend myself. but i can't take classes because my mom won't have enough time to take me. so, this is my question, can i learn to defend myself at home, with like a knife or something?

thanks in advance♥

do you live near a family video? they offer free rentals of all of their exercise videos. You can maybe get a karate one or another type of self defense video.

at my sprint store (i have sprint) they also sell virgin mobil phones and theres one virgin mobile phone i want but cause they are two different plans do you think i could get it.. because they do sell them at the sprint store and when i went on some website it said- "virgin mobile/sprint" as the header of the phone i wanted.

well virgin mobile isn't exactly a plan. its really all prepaid except for the one "sorta" plan they have but that still isn't like a normal phone. but if you are paying your own bill that is a nice place to go because it is rather in expensive (i had that for about 2 years)

I believe the phones do not overlap. like if its in the virgin mobile section you have to get it for virgin mobile. although they do have some of the virgin mobile phones at verizon if you were interested in a verizon plan.

Many stores carry virgin mobile including sam goody, fye, radio shack etc. so as far as a i know sprint isnt with virgin mobile.. acually its with t-mobile

i went on both their website and it said nothing about each other as far as i can see

i'm 15 female and I noticed that I sort of have a fat face, it's not like really fat, But I don't want it to be fat anymore, how can I get ride of it?..I'm not really a fat girl either, I'm aout 125lbs. I don't know if that has anything to do with it.
Thanks in advance

Are you on any meds? My med has made my face fuller and sometimes chubby which also could be the reason for yours being like that.

If that isn't the case it is basically genetics. I would think liposuction would be the only true way to get rid of that fat other than concealing it

okay, i have greasy hair, and idk why. like i`ll get out of the shower & blow dry it. and then i`ll go to straighten it and it`ll be greasy. is there any tips to stopping the greasy-ness? i use Herbal Essences - the new kind. and i also was wondering is there any way to make straightening my hair easier? b/c its short and its hard to get to the backk. thanks ♥

Do you go swimming alot? my hair feels like that right after i swim and if i don't scrub it well enough. and don't use conditioner

and for straightening if you brush your hair straight while blowdrying it should get practically straight. it may still be on the thicker side but it should be straight!

I saw on other advicenators colums their backgrounds. How do you get backgrouds on there? I dont want to pay anything. I read that you can upload pictures? am i right? Well how do you do that???

So, during the summer i have a problem with like shaving my bikini line. Whenever i shave, i get little bumpies. Does anyone know how i could prevent from getting these?? What are some good products??

I use conditioner instead of shaving cream. It fixes the prob about 90% of the time and even when i get bumps they aren't as bad as they were

Okay, so i'm a 14/f. About 4 months ago, i was 125 pounds, and i was disgusted with my body. So i decided i was going to lose weight. Well i chose the wrong path to take. I basicly cut down on food. Well, now i am 115 pounds. And today i realized something was wrong.

I was starving, and my friend, my boyfriend and my mom went to the mall, we ate there and i had about 4 peices of orange chicken and like 3 pieces of broccoli, and a fork full of rice, and i was full and i thought i was going to throw up because i was so full.

And I'm not like that, usually, i can eat pretty well. Is there any eatting disorder that can relate to this, because i'm 99% sure i'm not Bulemic or Anorexic.

And please don't say "just eat more", it's harder than you think.

Help please?

I don't think your problem is as big as you think it is. 10 pounds is more than safe to lose in 4 monthes. My friend who was anerexic droped from about 130 to 85 pounds in that amount of time. If you are seriously worried eat things with higher fat instead of low fat stuff and then you will gain more weight back without acually eating more. also the extra exersise that comes along with it being summer could have acounted to some of your weight loss too. like in the summer i also eat way less than i do in the winter.

If you think you have a problem talk to your mom. if she was thinking something was wrong she would have prob said something to you.

also don't always weigh yourself. you can weigh up to like 10 pounds heavier after dinner than you do before breakfast.

what are other ways i can get rid of body hair other than shaving and waxing that won't cost much?

thanks in advice.

I use face bleach on mine.. its pretty easy and it only costs $5 at the max and that kit will last you atleast half the year. Its good for like stomach hair and other fine hair like that.

i have a hot pink razor almost brand new and i hate it! it's too small and too wade to hold. i never droped it but its su uncomfutbale. i want to get the new sidekcik because my sister has the sidekick 2 and i just love it. the problem is the sidekick 3 is like 450 bucks so im wondering if because my razor is only a month old would they let me trade it and i could just pay the difference?

if you have t-mobile you have a month so return it but it can't be more than that. but you can always try and see what they say because sometimes they are more willing to trade as long as you stay with their company

Hey all. Well, I'm 14/f and I'm entering the 9th grade in August. I was thinking about playing volleyball in highschool, even though I don't have that much experience (playing in p.e. class), and they said that no experience is needed. I'm not sure if I should try-out because I don;t know if it would be best to be on the team in the 9th grade, or wait till next year, go to volleyball camp before the next season, and try-out in the 10th grade. I'm confused, and I don't know what to do. Could you guys help me. Also, what are they looking for, as of skills that'll get you on the team? Thanks.

I would go for it! the early your try out the better. and who knows you could be a natural! If you are worried practice with a friend that plays or a family member to get you ready for tryouts

My 6 year old daughter recently started saying she wants to meet her real dad (he hasn't seen her since she was two years old except for a brief chance meeting at a friends house a two years ago.) I'm not sure what brought this on, except that I just had another baby with a different man, and he and I share custody, so maybe she's feeling a little jealous that her baby brother's dad is around but hers isn't. I'm no longer involved with my son's father, but we are civil for our child's sake so it isn't like he could be a father to her. But I need to know- do I call my daughter's father and make him have a relationship with his daughter? I don't know what to do, or what to say to her.

What i would do if you know his address is maybe have her write him a letter or even just draw a picture and maybe include something in there about her wanting a relationship because that gives him more of an option to whether he wants it or not because if you call he may feel pressured and overwhelmed. Also maybe you can see if you have another male figure who will always be there like a grandfather to help replace what she isn't getting from her father

What is carpal tunnel? How do yu get it?

It has to do with your shoulders and wrist and can vary from person to person. like when my dad got it all of the bones in his wrist like collapes and he needed surgery.

I believe it can run it the family but you can also get it naturally. It is a syndrome so its something that happens and really isn't preventable for the most part
