I am applying for a job at clothing store, and on the application it asks why I am applying for this position. The honest answer is because I need the money, but I know you're not supposed to say that on applications. So what should I say instead? Thank you. (link)
|
On the application where it asks why you're applying, say something like, "For the experience," or "Because I thoroughly enjoy the idea of assisting others at purchasing clothing.." or something like that. They might ask you the same things (similar) in the interview that they did on the application. They'll probably ask why you want that job, any previous experience. I'm not sure exactly cause' I don't know where you're applying... but nothing too hard. Be honest, friendly, and well groomed. Haha. =) Good luck!

What are the codes to use on Xanga to Bold,underline,italicize certain words? And if there are any other cool nifty things you know, ifyou could leave those also (link)
|
Okay. Remember to remove all spaces!! As you would assume, put your text where it proclaims TEXT. Haha.
Bold :
< b > TEXT < / b >
Underline :
< u > TEXT < / u >
Italics :
< i > TEXT < / i >
Strikethrough :
< s > TEXT < / s >
Basic marquee (don't remove the space between 'scroll' and 'direction', or between 'marquee' and 'behavior', but remove all other spaces) :
< marquee behavior=scroll direction="left" > TEXT < / marquee >
Marquee that "bounces" between the page margins (don't remove the space between 'marquee' and 'behavior') :
< marquee behavior="alternate" > TEXT < / marquee >
Glowing Text (this is REALLY cool!) there are many different ones. You can change the colors in each one. These are all set for pink and green. They use Hex Codes. Only remove spaces before and after the "arrow" signs. (< >) You can also change the font. These are set for Verdana. :
Blur : < span style="width: 150; height: 50; font-size: 20px; font-family: verdana; color: #ff00cc; filter: shadow(color=#00ff00, direction=200)" > TEXT < / span >

What is something that you would have at ur house so get rid of a pimple FAST? (link)
|
Wash your face really really really really really well, and use an astringant or toner. After that, use an acne medicine or gel (if you have one). Then take a washcloth and put it in REALLY hot water (as hot as you can absolutely stand) and put this on the pimple. Keep the washcloth there until it becomes cold. Repete two or three times. Then, put toothpaste on the pimple. I know it sounds gross but the same things in the toothpaste that kill the germs in your mouth will help draw out the germs in the pimple. Let the toothpaste dry and sit for a few hours or sleep with it on the pimple. Wash your face really well again and use toner/astringant. The pimple should be gone or noticeably smaller.

what are some signs of depression? (link)
|
Some signs of depression include :
-Persistent sad, anxious, or "empty" mood
-Feelings of hopelessness, pessimism
-Feelings of guilt, worthlessness, helplessness
-Loss of interest or pleasure in hobbies and activities that were once enjoyed
-Decreased energy, fatigue, being "slowed down"
-Difficulty concentrating, remembering, making decisions
-Insomnia, early-morning awakening, or oversleeping
-Appetite and/or weight loss or overeating and weight gain
-Thoughts of death or suicide; suicide attempts
-Restlessness, irritability
-Persistent physical symptoms that do not respond to treatment, such as headaches, digestive disorders, and chronic pain
Some ways some teens show their depression :
Frequent sadness, tearfulness, crying :
Teens may show their pervasive sadness by wearing black clothes, writing poetry with morbid themes, or having a preoccupation with music that has nihilistic themes. They may cry for no apparent reason.
Hopelessness :
Teens may feel that life is not worth living or worth the effort to even maintain their appearance or hygiene. They may believe that a negative situation will never change and be pessimistic about their future.
Decreased interest in activities; or inability to enjoy previously favorite activities :
Teens may become apathetic and drop out of clubs, sports, and other activities they once enjoyed. Not much seems fun anymore to the depressed teen.
Social isolation, poor communication :
There is a lack of connection with friends and family. Teens may avoid family gatherings and events. Teens who used to spend a lot of time with friends may now spend most of their time alone and without interests. Teens may not share their feelings with others, believing that they are alone in the world and no one is listening to them or even cares about them.
Extreme sensitivity to rejection or failure :
Believing that they are unworthy, depressed teens become even more depressed with every supposed rejection or perceived lack of success
Self-Injury :
Teens who have difficulty talking about their feelings may show their emotional tension, physical discomfort, pain and low self-esteem with self-injurious behaviors, such as cutting.
Treatments for teen depression :
Comprehensive treatment often includes both individual and family therapy. Although there are real and frightening concerns about antidepressant medication, most mental health professionals continue to recommend their use.
Ideally, you will end up with more than one therapist to interview. Call each one and request to ask the therapist some questions, either by phone or in person. You may want to inquire about his or her licensing, level of training, their expertise, approach to therapy and medication, and participation in insurance plans and fees. Such a discussion should help you sort through your options and choose someone with whom you believe you and your teen might interact well.

my friend told me jlo died? omg is this true? (link)
|
I'm not sure. I don't think so though. I looked it up on the Internet and a couple of places said that it was a joke that a couple of guys pulled... posting it around the internet and stuff and spreading that "JLo" and her boyfriend were in a car accident; saying that "JLo" was dead and her boyfriend was in a coma. Though it was just a rumor - a joke. Though a there were a few places that were said Jennifer did die. I read the answers other's gave, and someone said they saw it on the news she died. I don't know. Research it more. Check out these search engines!

how do rate a columnist? (link)
|
You can only rate a columnist or leave feedback if they answer a public question you ask. Click the side link that says "Your Questions". Click on a question name. Underneath each question is a set of numbers. Click a number to give the answer that rating. Here's what the numbers basically mean:
1 - Pretty bad advice
2 - Not harmful, but not useful either
3 - Decent enough advice
4 - Good advice
5 - Really awesome advice
Just rate what you think the advice earned. After you click a number, the page you go to will give you the option to leave more feedback. If you don't feel like leaving feedback you don't have to, if you change your mind it's easy to go back and add it later.

who sings the song that goes like :
cuz i got one hand in my pocket..
and what is the name of the song? (link)
|
Alanis Morissette : Hand In My Pocket
Here are the lyrics :
I'm broke but I'm happy
I'm poor but I'm kind
I'm short but I'm healthy, yeah
I'm high but I'm grounded
I'm sane but I'm overwhelmed
I'm lost but I'm hopeful baby
What it all comes down to
Is that everything's gonna be fine fine fine
I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is giving a high five
I feel drunk but I'm sober
I'm young and I'm underpaid
I'm tired but I'm working, yeah
I care but I'm restless
I'm here but I'm really gone
I'm wrong and I'm sorry baby
What it all comes down to
Is that everything's gonna be quite alright
I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is flicking a cigarette
And what it all comes down to
Is that I haven't got it all figured out just yet
I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is giving the peace sign
I'm free but I'm focused
I'm green but I'm wise
I'm hard but I'm friendly baby
I'm sad but I'm laughing
I'm brave but I'm chicken****
I'm sick but I'm pretty baby
And what it all boils down to
Is that no one's really got it figured out just yet
I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is playing the piano
And what it all comes down to my friends
Is that everything's just fine fine fine
I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is hailing a taxi cab

is it wrong if you are 15 yrs old and have a 25 year old boyfriend??everyone tells me that its wrong.. (link)
|
Actually, it is. You're a minor and he's a legal adult. If you were to do anything sexual with him, he could be arrested. I don't suggest doing sexual things with guys until you're married anyway, but alot of people do it anyway. Besides, he's 10 years older than you and with age comes (almost always) maturity, smarts, and wisdom. Not to say that you aren't mature or smart or wise, but he's alot older than you. And is he using you? Be sure that he's not. Though since it is pretty illegal... you might wanna talk to him about breaking up. It's only three years till you'll be a legal adult. But as long as you and he are comfortable together and are not doing anything sexual, it is perfectly legal. *shrug*

I need some help do you think that I guy should like you for who you are or what you look like (link)
|
WHO YOU ARE!
Looks can change in an instant! Trust me... a friend of mine's uncle was in a car accident. The car caught fire and the man was very badly burned. His wife stuck by his side the whole time. Don't think for a moment that this man was good looking after he was burned. The scar tissue turned formed bubbles and it was very grotesque. But because the woman stayed married to her husband, it shows that she loved him for WHO HE IS, not WHAT HE LOOKS LIKE. Be like that. Love someone for who they are, not for what they look like. Appreciate personality. If find someone that looks good (a pretty person), and has a beautiful personality, appreciate both of the characteristics. Though the prettiness may not last, the personality will. Love him (or her, if you're a guy..) for who they are!

i litterally always wear my hair the same way up and in a ponytail..i like having it up and out of my face though..i have long thick wavy curly hair..any ideas on what i can do and how? (link)
|
Hah, we're like twins. Just kidding, but we have similar hair types. My hair is thick - very!, past shoulder length, thick, wavy, kinda curly in places, frizzy, annoying... yeah. I also like to have my hair up out of my face. Recently (less than a month ago...) I got my hair cut in long layers (the shortest one is below my chin). I also invested in a CHI straightener. Trust me, I know how hard it is to straighten hair. It took me over 2 hours with a Conair straightener, but with my CHI straightener it only takes 45 minutes. Yeah, that's still kinda a long time, but not nearly as bad. Basically, you can straighten your hair, pull it up, or use gel to make your hair even more curly than usual. If you get your hair chopped off short, your hair will curl up and frizz up alot more than usual. Long layers will keep it flatter. If you use a straightener enough, it will be so easy that it won't take a long time. You know, if you do it three times a week, you can probably do it 5 minutes faster each time. That's fifteen minutes off each week. Though I don't straighten my hair three times a week, I know I could be alot better if I did. Though I'd advise you not to straighten your hair every day. The heat can damage your hair, and it's not as special if you do it every day. I know that a ponytail is boring... trust me, four years of only a ponytail.. it gets old. Try and find someone who cuts hair like yours and ask what they would advise. They are trained for this. =)

There was this guy that was 2 years older than me. He was my brothers best friend. I had a huge crush on him. He would always come over and snowboard with us afterschool. One night he spent the night.While we were all watching a movie he put his arm around me in my bed. He started to play with my belly button ring. Later int the night he was feeling me up. All over my boobs and my butt. He started biting my ear.He made me really nervous. THis was all in front of my brother. I had to go to bed he came and layed down with me. He thought he heard my mom and jumped up so he knew he was doing something he shouldnt of. The next day it was like nothing happend. Was I used??
I will rate high!!! (link)
|
Hmm... if you haven't heard from him since... it sounds like you've been used. That's a hard answer; but it's the truth. But you also have to realize that brothers can be protective. Perhaps your brother told his friend "Dude, that's my sister. Back off, dude. Chill." Or something of the like. Talk to your brother and see if his friend mentioned anything. Don't be too dissappointed if you were used. Be careful. =)

OK my cousin is pretty much a slut. she's 11. she wheres really tight shirts that go up past her bellybutton along with a really short skirt. She wears VERY thick padded bras so she uses a C cup. When someone calls her a slut she giggles and says "nuh uh..!" And I'm gettin sick of it because my friends are like "how does it feel to have an 11 yr old have bigger boobs than you" and honestly i really dont care because im not fake but no one realizes that. and on top or it, she brags about gettin slapped in the ass by other guys and she shaves which i dont think she should be doing when she's 11 even though its not my choice. What can do to help her without gettin her upset?? (link)
|
Ah.. yeah. I have the same "issue," only it's with my sixteen year old cousin. Though she's older than me, I have the same feelings. When my cousin was fourteen, she lost her virginity to a boyfriend who was abusive. I know she's sixteen adn has a right to dress as she wants, but I have small (6 and 7) year old cousins who look up to my older cousins as role models. My older cousin wears shirts that show more skin than they cover up and shorts that I promise double as underwear cause' they're so small. But I can't change it. Maybe you could just set a very good example? You know, don't wear anything you wouldn't want your cousin to wear, act very self confident (even if you don't feel it) about your figure and clothes. Take your cousin shopping, but insist that she only buy modest clothing. If you can't afford to actually buy the clothes, take her to the stores anyway and try them on. Ignore the clothes that she normally wears, and point out some very nice modest clothes. Show the positive sides, ignore any negative comments she may make. If she has a favorite color, show her that they make T-shirts (MODEST T-shirts) in that color. Hang out with some "cool" people at the movies or bowling or something (a bunch of your friends) and have them all wear something appropriate. If your cousin brings up what she's done with which guy or whatever... just ignore it! The object is to be completely positive about covering up. If you invite her to hang out with people that wear more clothes than she does often enough, she'll feel out of place and wear longer T-shirts, blue jeans and such. I can't promise anything about her "stuffing," but trust that your friends know you aren't a faker. Don't bring it up and specifically ask your friends not to. I understand that your cousin's parents might not care, but do your parents care? Sometimes kids will listen to someone - anyone - besides Mom and Dad. If you could get your mom to talk to her about modest attire, it might help some. That along with positive reenforcement (hanging out with people who wear modest clothes, shopping for modest clothes etc.) should help A LOT. =)

i am just wondering why people put lemon juice in there hair. i am not bein mean but i just wanna know what it does
thanks (link)
|
If done correctly, the lemon juice will streak (highlight) your hair. I've never done it, and I don't plan on it either. If you're thinking about putting lemon juice in your hair as a natural highlighter, beware - the lemon juice will dry out your hair. I know a person who did the lemon stuff, and her hair was dry and course. When her hair grew out, the lemon juice turned her hair sortof an orange-ish color. Maybe that was just her hair, though. But most people do it for cheap highlights. Buying a few lemons is cheaper than going to the "beauty shop" and getting highlights put in or even buying the kit to do it yourself.

level 1 mods., wut do the smileys represent? like wuts the rubric? i kno :( is 1 nd so on, but wut IS a 1, 2 or 3?? (link)
|
Ok, I'm a L1, so maybe I can help.
The smilies help the mods and the columnists know what other mods think of the question. If the question has a smilie face :) then the question has been rated an average of three. This is a really good question. A three question is normally:
- Out of the ordinary
- Extremely good grammar/spelling
- Good layout and presentation
- Not asked a million and one times
- Hasn't been asked by everyone and their dog
- Is sincere
- Isn't raunchy
A :| face is a question that has been rated with an average of two. A two question is normally:
- Pretty ordinary, but not awful
- Fair spelling/grammar
- Understandable layout/ presentation
- Frequently asked, but not overasked
- Fairly sincere
- Not awfully raunchy (normally)
A :( face is a question with an average rating of 1. A one question is normally:
- Boring.
- Terrible grammar/spelling
- Hard to understand.
- Overasked.
- Not sincere at all.
- Terribly raunchy, filled with bad content etc.
So you get the idea. If a question is rated five times with an average rating of 1, it gets deleted. If the question is rated with an average rating of 2, it stays with a :| face. If the question is rated with an average rating of 3, it stays with a :). The question with the highest rating is featured.

Ok so heres the deal. Im going to make sure that i close up all "problems" so to speak with my friends. I am seriously feeling down and way down on myself with my ex. Its been a little over a month now since we've had no communication what so ever. I want to talk to him and i dont know how. My reasons will be obvious getting back together but also to have a friend back and much more that isnt all about getting back together. I just want to be happy again. I miss him terribly and ill never know if he misses me if i dont talk to him...heres the dilema. I know i dont have to feel this way if i talk to him but i dont want to interrupt his "growing up" time, but i think im going to call him anyways. Am i wrong for any of this? (link)
|
Sweetheart, you're incredibly brave! And definitely right! Though you might not want to mention getting back together as a couple, per say, but there's nothing wrong with calling him to chat as friends. In fact, I'd be willing to say that he'd probably like it if you called to talk. You know, "What's up? How're things going? Seen any good movies lately?" etc., etc. He probably misses you, and needs you to make the first step as friends. Don't mention getting back together as a couple until you're absolutely sure you're ready and he is too -- and that he wants to get back with you.
Maybe you could ask him if he wanted to hang out with you and a bunch of your friends. Maybe go bowling, see a good movie, or go out to eat. Whatever you wanna do. But doing something one-on-one wouldn't be a good idea. Not yet. Just spend a little time as friends, first, and then progress in your relationship from there.
Good luck, chica!

MD_GIRL101 (link)

MD_GIRL101,
As a part of the way God created you, you have a curious mind. You also have raging hormones right about this time in life. (If they're not so raging yet, trust me, they will be.) God created those hormones - He had good intentions, I suppose - and He understands all about you and them. I've never been "boy-crazy," I've always been more in touch with my spiritual side than most girls my age, even when I was younger. Now that I have a boyfriend, I also find myself thinking about him frequently, but he isn't my "god of the day." Don't get me wrong here, I love my boyfriend. But, he's not God. I need (or, want should I say) time each day to talk to my boyfriend, my girl-friends, and my other guy-friends, and so do you. God understands that. Do you know why God created Eve? It was so Adam could have a friend because he was lonely! God understands that the human body longs for another human to converse and do earthly things with. By "earthly things" I mean activities such as bowling, movies, mini-golf etc. God also wants us to be HIS friend. To be honest with you...
GOD IS THE BEST FRIEND I HAVE EVER HAD, HE'LL NEVER LEAVE ME, NOR FORSAKE ME. I HAVE FULL CONFIDENCE IN HIM, I KNOW I CAN TELL HIM ANYTHING AND HE WILL NOT SPEAK BEHIND MY BACK. I CAN TELL HIM MY FEARS AND HE WILL COMFORT ME. I AM NEVER ALONE BECAUSE HE IS WITH ME. HE KNIT MY INNERMOST PIECES TOGETHER IN MY MOTHERS WOMB, I AM FEARFULLY AND WONDERFULLY MADE! HE LOVES ME! HE UNDERSTANDS ALL OF MY EARTHLY FEARS ABOUT LIFE, BOYS, GROWING UP, AND HE UNDERSTANDS MY CONFUSION ABOUT THE DEATH, PAIN, HUNGER, TERRORISM AND LIBERILISM IN THIS WORLD. HE HELPS ME TO UNDERSTAND, BUT HE ALSO HELPS PUSH ME ALONG TO DISCOVER NEW THINGS. GOD HAS HELPED ME TO COME OUT OF MY SHELL SO I MAY ALSO COMFORT THOSE WHO ARE HIDIDNG. GOD RULES!!!!
Become BEST FRIENDS with God. Let His arms be your shelter, your hiding place forever. God created boys, and not surprisingly, He understands them. He understands our fascinations with many things... boys, cars, horses, technology, sports -- anything. God wants to hear everything you've got to say. This means about boys. Yes, boys. Tell God you want to spend more time on Him and less on boys. God'll give you some ideas. Though, a good way to spend more time on God is to PRAY alot more, read your Bible alot more, and go to church if you don't already. I pray constantly... probably 50 or more times a day. Prayer doesn't have to be a 30 minute long conversation... prayer needs to be alllll day thing. You see someone who looks sad, ask God to comfort them. You see a homeless person, ask God to bless them and soothe their minds. You see a druggie, ask God to help them overcome their addiction. You see someone who is just happy to be alive, thank God for them! You see a hurt puppy, pray for it. You see a sick cat, pray for it. You see a baby horse running in the pasture... PRAY FOR IT! Everything is to be prayed about. Thank God for the mud in your front yard, thank God for the birds in the air... anything and everything. If you don't understand something in the world, talk to God about it! If you do this, and read at least a chapter of the Bible a day, you'll find yourself thinking alot more about God, and alot less about boys.
God bless you, Sister.

i have noticed that a lot of people get their layouts from "dustin" lol i want one...could u tell me where i need to go?
thanks
(link)

Ah, good ole "dustin." Sure thing. On the side task bar (Where it says "Welcome, *insert your name*!") Look down to the bottom of that section (it's the third section from the top). It will say "Logout" at the very bottom; right above that it says "Column Settings," -- click on that. When that page opens, it'll say "Styles You've created" and unless you're a paid member, you haven't created any styles. Directly below that it will say "Approved Public Styles," and there are four links. You can preview each one of them, to decide which you like best, then you can use your favorite. A little lower, you can change the colors of your column. You can use a premade background (there's a link to it) or you can click on a button to have your column done in mostly pink, purple, black, white, yellow or blue. If none of those fit your likings, you can enter in your own HTML color codes and create something entirely your own. Have fun!
