about

alright so i take back the fact that im done with this advice column. but im just letting everyone one here know that i do have a life, and advicenators is not it. however, im here to help. i just wont be on every single day.

advice

heey =) i'm about 5'5 is that unhealthy?!

hey, well believe it or not you are only 3 pounds over weight. my doctor said that at 5`0 your suppose to be 100 pounds. also he said that everytime you go up in height, you add 5 pounds. so at 5`1 you should be 105, 5`2 you should be 110, 5`3 you should be 115, 5`4 you should be 120, and at 5`5 you should be 125. 3 pounds is basically nothing and can be easily fixed. just maintain a healthy diet and excersise :].

I really want to go to some cool resort over spring break but I don't really know of any places that are good for teens (not school-age kids).

I know Atlantis isn't that good...

soooo any suggestions would be appreciated.

ok so i've had this pimple for about a week now. it's not a white head, but one of those humongo swollen ones that take over your face because its so big. after cleaning it everyday, twice to be exact, and putting medication on it, it finally started going away about a day ago. so now it's this HUGE DARK PURPLE spot thats mostly flat, but a little swollen. i've been putting neosporin (sp?) on it lately, but nothing seems to be happening, it's just getting darker. and the color is liek a purple color, not red or pink. what can i do? i've tried cover-up but it just makes the spot even darker. any home remedies out there so i can get out the purple and make it not swollen anymore?! thanks in advance :o]

hey, well i had the same problem before. im still not sure why it was purple to this day, but i went to a dermotologist. they recommended proactive solution. i used it and it cleared it right up! they also recommened clearasil products incase proactive was too expensive for me. put coverup on it to hide it until you can get either of those :].

I am doing a paper on how to raise money to build schools in Africa. What are some ways to raise the money?

hey, start a fundrasier for it. stand in places where you could collect money. use a tri-fold to get your point across to the public on why they should donate. good luck :].

im not the girl who asked about that whole sweating and losing calories thing, but i was wondering about my perfect weight. im about 5'2 and i weigh 123. whats my perfect weight? =]

hey, well according to my doctor at 5`0 your suppose to weigh 100 pounds. every time you go up in height, your suppose to add 5 pounds. so at 5`1 your suppose to be 105 adn at 5`2 your suppose to be 110. you are only 13 pounds over weight. that is actually fixable. i know your probably thinking "oh, that`s bogus", but dont worry, almost everyone is over weight by at least a little. just develop a healthy eating habit and excersise a bit more. good luck :].

To start yo off I have a BIG crush on this guy. Me and him are both kind of quiet, sweet, down to earth, and try hard in school but not the best grades. He's AMAZING, and I like everything about him. Honest - if you asked me what about him I liked and why I liked him, I could write 2 books on it.. Anyways...some boy I'm kind of friends with knew I liked him and he told the boy I like and some other people. Now, its okay if some people know but the boy I like himself... It ruined everything. Now I feel as if I try to talk to him, he will just think its because I like him and I'm trying to date him.

My friend is kind of friends with him and wants to say to him we are great together but I'm not sure if its a good idea, does it put pressure on him?

I wan't to go to the dance with him this Friday so bad. I haven't even ever talked to him before so is it weird that I like him so much? I constanly think abut him... also what should I do about the dance? I'm scared to just ask him sine I've never talked before, and it would be kind of weird to suiddently just start talking to him now after all this time.

hey, well im sorry to say this, but im pretty sure that it`s just an attraction. it is almost humanly impossible to like/love someone that you haven`t spoken to a day in your life. start talking to him on AIM first. then slowly use the things you talk to him about on AIM, in person.

I get sick more than most people. When I went to the doctor the other day & we were talking about how many days I miss of school a year on average & I told him, all he had to say was, "Wow .. are you serious?" You wanna know how many days I miss? Sometimes it even gets up to 25! My mom says there's no way I can get in gifted & keep up with my school work since they give you more work the higher the grade you're in, so I'm starting to get worried. No one else in my family gets sick like me. I mean, I take all of those multi-vitamins & things for your immune system daily! I hardley eat any candy & over all, I eat pretty healthy. I had my tonsils out though, but it's not helping too much. Is there a reason that I continue getting sick all the time? What is wrong with me?

hey, well im not sure why your constantly sick. the reason for me answering this question is because i have some tips for you catching up on work while being sick. you can have your mom call and have the teachers get the books you need and get them and bring them home on the days that you miss school. another option is having a loyal and trustworthy friend go into your locker and get the books that you need. i`d go with the teachers doing it instead, because im sure that your not in all the same classes as your friend. create a "homework folder" for the work that you did even tho you were absent. when you go back to school, bring it with you and that way you`ll get caught up. also ask the teachers to give you any in class assignments that the students did without you.

when you go tanning do you lose calories when you sweat? hah its a weird question but just wondering. okay so i use to weigh 113 and now i weigh 128 and i just suddenly gained weight! i'm only 14 so why is this happening!? will it go away! what do i dooo!

hey, well sweating does make you lose calories from time to time, but believe me nothing major. you will probably lose 5-10 calories, that`s it. if you want to message me your height, i can tell you how much you should loose to reach the perfect weight for your height. my doctor told me this good chart thing.

okay so i just got my belly button pierced and i was wondering if when i went swimming like in a lake would it get infected like by the water or would it be fine and all I'd have to do is clean it after or can i not go swimming until it heals compleetly???

hey, well i think that you shold go back to the parlor where you got it done and maybe get a pamphlet about what`s good and what`s bad for it. also ask the piercer about whether that`s a good idea or not.

Cany someone give me a summary of the 2nd half of this book? (The book Theif) A family member gave it to me and she wants to know what I think. I barely got half way without boring myself to tears. She already read it so I can't BS anything. Help?

hey, wel have you tried spark notes? im not sure the author of this book, so it`s up to you to search.

Ok well my ex bf had surgery on his foot and was out of school for 3 weeks. My ex broke up with me but before he got his surgery(by the way he broke up with me about a year ago so its kinda random and shocking for him to say this) he sent me a message saying he never stopped loving me.
We talked a while but only on aol, which is a lot differnt then in person.
But today was his first day back to school, and i really don't see him much, but when i do i have no idea what to do. I mean i should just be like hey. but thats soo much easier said then done. But omg its soo nerve racking. idk what to do if i ran into or any really cute lines?? so can someone help me on this sitt. or on what to say?

hey, well i would just say "hey" casually just like you would do to anyone else. dont use any "cute" lines or anything, that would probably be coming on to him too fast. just stay at friend level for a while with casual flirting, if he starts flirting with you. the only way you should start the flirting is if you know that he is interested.

I just started indoor tanning. How often a week should I tan??

hey, well it depends on your skin color before you start tanning. meet up with a worker from the place and ask them these questions. they will know what the right thing to do is :].

Well I've been sick all winter- it started out with a viral infection, then norovirus and the regular flu (both at once), and now I have strep.

I had no time in between these illnesses to just be normal.


Why do I keep getting sick? I'm starting to think there's something seriously wrong with me.

Motrin isn't helping my throat- and I need to know about a better medication that would help it. Not chloraseptic though. that stuff sucks.

hey, it`s probably because the seasons are changing or because of the cold weather. people are way more likely to get sick in the colder weather, rather than warmer weather. make a doctor`s appointment just to see a professional`s opinion.

Okay, so our hs graduation is on Friday already, and I want to give my closest and not-so-close friends a little something that would serve as a souvenir. Any ideas as to what I can give aside from [perhaps] farewell letters? But nothing too expensive, please ;). I really want to give them a little something since I'd be far away in college... as in I'd be really far from them cuz my university is far from theirs....

Thanks in advance people!

;)

hey, well i think that a picture of you in that person would be good for the not so close friends. also a farewell letter would be good also. for your closer friends, a farewell letter is also nice, but intead of the one picture, i would do a photo album. good luck :].

My boyfriends ex girlfriend owns the house we are in. He doesnt know that i know the house is foreclosing. We are moving into our new home next month around the 15th. I saw the sherriff auction paper in his car and it is for the 11th. Arent i going to find out eventually??Does the winning bidder push eviction? how does that work.He says he is in a hurry to buy our new house because his ex is pushing him out. Should i be worried that he is so secretive? why wont he just tell me the truth?I wont be angry with him.

hey, well you need to talk to him. trusting is something you need in a relationship and if he kept a secret from you -- how can you know 100% that you can trust him the next time? i would talk to him about it and let him know that you found out. also ask him why he kept it secret. let him know that you aren`t made at him, jsut angry that he would hide something so little from you. good luck :].

i am 14/f and i weigh 129 and i'm 5'4 5'5 okay so i am not over weight but i have excessive body fat around my stomache area! i am going away in about 2 weeks for summer vaca and i want to lose 5 pounds. thats i think enough time. so right now i eat very lightly with carrots furits ect. & drink nothing but water. i run/walk 1-2 miles everyday && go to the gym for an hour every night. well most nights at least. && crunches everyo ther day. i have one more question. everyone says cardio always works to lose weight, thats running biking walking cross trainer right? i just started so if i keep this up will it work?!

hey, well according to my doctor, at 5`0 your suppose to be 100 pounds. everytime you go up in height your suppose to add 5 pounds. so at 5`1 you should be 105, at 5`2 you should be 110, at 5`3 you should be 115, at 5`4 your suppose to be 120, and at 5`5 your suppose to be 125. your not too much overweight. only about 5-9 pounds depending on if your 5`4 or 5`5. what your doing is great, but a little too much for your body at one time. i know you want to get healthy, but take it slow. good luck :].

Well my bestfriend Hannah and I have been friends for a while and i tell her everything even about how i am like in love with one of my other bestfriends. Everyone says he likes me to and that i should ask him out so i was planning to ask him to prom but when our church went to mexico and hannah and the boy went.. it was like she was flirting with him. She was always around him stealing his sunglasses laughing playing games with him and when i asked her about she was like i would never do that because you like him.. I never got a chance to ask him to prom becuase she was always with him.. what should i do

hey, well you need to tell her to seriously backoff because you like him and she knows that. explain to her that your trying to ask him to prom, but haven`t gotten a chance to because of her always being around him. if shes a true and loyal friend, she will listen to you and give you the space that you need. good luck :].

Well I have this really good friend of mine that i love so much. We have been good friends for a year now She goes to my church and i love her to death but there are times where we will go days even weeks without talking or seeing eachother... she says she is busy with her kids and stuff but sometimes i wonder. I mean i know she is busy but i still cant help but fill like im the reason she is never around.. i know its not true but thats just how i feel.. So i was hoping someone can help by telling me what i should do...

hey, well if your wanting to save the friendship than i would talk to her. you wouldn`t want a whole year of good times to go to waste right? just tell her how you feel, instead of telling us. if she feels like you do [wanting to save your friendship], than im sure she will bend a little and try to make more time for you. if she still chooses to be "busy" or makes time for you one day and then just keep basically ignoring you, you have to ask her if she doesn`t want to be around you or what the deal is. if she ends the friendship, she wasn`t a loyal friend and definately wasn`t worth it. good luck :].
