about

Hey everyone!My name is Brina,I've been on this site for a few years, after not being on for a while, I figured I'd start up again, having more knowledge then before! I'm 19 years old and am going to be a sophomore in college this coming fall! Please feel free to ask me anything!


I'VE BEEN VERY BUSY WITH SCHOOL SO MY APOLOGIES IF I DON'T GET TO YOUR QUESTIONS RIGHT AWAY!

advice

lately i have just been so tired with the way i do my make-up for my eyes. everyone says i have gorgeous eyes, but i would like to bring them out more with new and better make-up. i usually just wear black eyeliner, black mascara, and a little eyeshadow. by the end of the day it looks as though i'm not wearing any make-up at all. so what i'm asking is, what kinds of eyeliner would really bring out my eyes? here is a picture of my eyes. yea they look green, but it's just because of the lighting. they are actually a light blue. thanks again and the link for the picture is down there.

Wow, you eyes are extremely gorgeous! lol. Well, deffinitly stick with the black eyeshadow...keep on using the same amount. I have a friend, and she has Green MASCARA, it is totally awesome, you should find some of that and use it. Also, use white glittery eyeshadow, it mill make your eyes stand out even more. Blue eyeshadow, makes peoples eyes look smaller. Just put the eye shadow on the edge of your eyelid, like right by your top eyelashes. Good Luck! Hope I helped!

My older sister is 17 (Im about to turn 14 in a few days) and today I was hanging out with her in her room while she was looking through her drawers for a pair of shorts. I saw something that looked like a condom wrapper but she covered it up so quickly, i thought i must have seen it wrong because my sister told me shes a virgin. Well, when she left the house, I snooped & turns out .. it was condoms, a few of them. And about 3 were un opened. Im MAD. She lied to me. And shes told me repeatedly how she wants to save herself until marriage. I dont know what to do, do i tell anyone? Im afraid she'll get an STD, or pregnant. But I cant talk to HER. Or she'll freak out at me and deny it - i know.

Talk to her, not about the condoms, but how you look up to her, and if she had sex it would change your mind about how you think of her. You know, just because she has condoms doesnt mean she is sexually active, it could mean:

A.She carries them around and if a friend needs one she gives one.
B. Maybe she thinks she looks cool with them.
C. Maybe she is deciding if she wants to or not.


Deffinitly talk to your sister. Good Luck!

16/f. I'm really into a guy at my school, and we're friends and we chat all the time, talk on the phone and online, and whatever. He likes me too, and we've considered dating. The only problem is, he's pretty overweight. Now, I wouldn't care, I don't just look for visual appeal in a person. But I'm really active, I love to play tennis and swim, and I do a lot of biking and jogging. It would be really nice if a guy that I dated would be able to do all of those things with me, and since he's not an active person, I don't know if we'd be able to. We're both really into European history, and we love to read and do those Cryptoquips in the newspaper, and I have a really good time hanging out with him. But are we compatible enough to build a relationship on?

Of course you are. Sometimes opposites match. Think about all the stuff you said that you have in common, such as the history and reading. It's alright to date someone who isnt into all of the same stuff as you. I say you should go for it. And, if you two do become boy friend and girl friend, or just start to date, you can have him play tennis with you. Maybe you can change his mind about activities. Good Luck!

... how do you KNOW when you really and truly 'love' someone?

When everything they say brings a smile to your face. You get a weird feeling whenever the person is by you. You get really jelous when you find out that someone likes the person. You cant wait for the next day to start, because you'll know that you'll see that person.

what are some things to do by yourself on summer
hi i am 13 years old and it seems like i never go anywhere with my friends i guess its because they are to young there like 12 but i have a 15 year old sister and she goes like every where with her friends i was wondering if i am just going to stay like this with my friends never going anywhere without there parents

Hey, you could always have one of your parents drop you off at the mall, or they can do there thing and you and your friends can go shop and stuff, and you can have your parents drop you off at the movies too. I would say go to a bar, but evidently your too young lol. You can always invite your friends over for a sleep over or something.
Things to do by yourself... hmm i suggest, go for a walk, read a book, watch a movie, tan, shoot some hoops if you have a hoop, you know, easy stuff. Hope I helped!

I dont want to sound like a jackass or anything, but why do most women (most being the ones that ive talked to on the subject taht are in HS or graduated around the 17-21 age range) not like birth control. Now it seems to me that birthcontrol isnt to bad at all, and that these women dont understand that seriousness of having a baby. Can someone pleas like to explain why someone would rather risk getting pregnant and having an unplanned baby or having an abortion, instead of takin a pill that would save you from alot of trouble.

Sorry about the length, but its a serious subject, 18-m

You really want to know why? Woman these days are irresponsible skanks. I'm sorry, I mean i am a girl, but is a shame to see how many woman are getting pregnant, and having a abortion or whatever. Some woman want to get pregnant, and then they end up aborting it. Birthcontrol, even though its not 100 percent positive to work, is still a good thing to use. Teenagers shouldnt have to use it, because they shouldnt be having sex. Hope I answered your question in some way.

my brother ethier never hangs out with me or or trys to make it as short as possible. and everytime i ask him if we can hang out more, he yells at me. how do i get my brother to hang out with me more often

Hey. I had the same problem with my two sisters. I sat them down, and told them that i liked hanging out with them, and if we could hang out more often... and, we do. You just have to let your brother know, how much you like spending time with him. Usually older siblings dont like hanging with there younger siblings, its normal, its just how older aged siblings are, they like to hang out with there friends. Good Luck!

Can i simply have a yes or no answer to this question:
My brother used to put his hands down the back of my trousers and grab my butt and stuff like that, i told him to stop but he wouldnt. is this abuse?

Hmmm, if it was something that he did a lot and it makes you feel uncomfortable then it would be called sexual harrasment. If it was like, a pinch in the butt joking around then it wouldnt be, but thats odd that your brother puts his hands down your pants. You should tell someone. Hope I helped.

how is someone sexually abused? i mean i dont understand.how do people abuse someone sexually? what do they do? my friend told me about someone that was and i was just wondering!

Hey.Sexual abuse is physical or psychological abuse that involves sexual behavior.Forms of sexual abuse include rape and indecent assault. Women and children are the most frequent victims of sexual abuse, but men can also suffer from it. Most sexual abusers are male, but there is a significant minority of female sexual abusers.

ok..i have this guy friend and he is really flirty towards me but i cant tell if he likes me or not..should i ask him if he likes me or should i get someone else to find out?((i like him))
thanks
i rate

Hey, some guys are very flirtious, but, there is a very high chance that he does like you. Does he only flirt with you, or with many girls? I suggest, go up to him and just, ask him if he likes you, because your getting the "vibe" that he does.Dont be scared, you only get to live life once, and everyoen should make the best of it. Good Luck!

i dont know if this in the right catagory but oh-well

I shave every other shower and after i shave my legs are really itchy. is that normal?

thanks

Do you shave dry? Make sure you use shaving cream, or in the shower make them soapy. Put skin lotion on your legs after you shave them, or if you shave them in the shower, then put the lotion on afterwards.I always put lotion on my legs even if i dry shave, and it never itches. Hope I helped!

hey!! im not fat but ive got a little blubber on my tummy..well its not flat..and i want to loose it in three weeks before school any ideas how..quick and easy..if i run everyday will it help?

Eh, it not might go away in only 3 weeks, but it probably will a little. Do tons of crunches, like 50 at once, then take a 30 minute brake and do 50 more. Running will probably help a bit. Eat veggies and fruits. Good Luck!

Hey girl! I'm glad I could agree with you on that question. Some girls just think it's "cool" now a days. Boys oh boys, aren't they wrong? :) Anyways, just checking out your column since you left your screen name on my feedback. You give some pretty good advice so keep that up, okay? =D Great stuff. I was wondering if I could add you to my sexy list of favorites? Maybe you could do the same? Keep smiling! ♥ Krissyxx9

Thanks, sure i'll add you to my fav columnists.
Bye Chica.

Ok, im 14 years old and im a boy.. i still havent gone threw puberty. All the other boys in my class have. Well most of them. Can anyone tell me how what when boys go threw puberty?

Boys go through puberty between the ages of 10 and can go to about 17 or 16. You will notice a change in your voice, armpit hair and height difference. Dont worry, every guy goes through it, you just have to be patient,your time will come soon. I know someone and he really hasnt changed from when we were younger and he is 14, so dont worry your not the only guy. Dont worry bout the other guys, you'll start soon. Good Luck...lol.

But one of my really good guy friends birthday is coming up on the 31st. I was just wondering what I could get him. Any Ideas? I'm totally clueless. Ill rate!!

*

Find out what type of music he likes, then, you could make him or buy him a CD. Get him a shirt that fits his personality. Take him out to lunch or something, just simple stuff that you can normally get for a friend. I suggest a shirt or CD, those are gifts that guys seem to apreciate a lot, and most guys arent picky lol.Hope I helped!

i know there has been a lot of questions like this so... i hope i'm not getting on your nerves! okay my birthday is in october and i'm turning 14, i have no idea what to do for my party b/c i can't have everyone over to my house or anything and what would we do anyway? i was thinking maybe w/all girls head to a spa or something, but i have a TON of guy friends. so please help! GOOD answers get 5's i'll report you if i have to!

Invite girls and guys over to your house. If you have a big back yard, you could play sports and stuff, like, kickball, and stuff. Or, play man hunt, hopefully you know what that is, hide and go seek in teh dark it is lol. Thats an awesome game to play with a bunch of people. If you have a pool, you could have a pool party. If you just want to hang with ur girlies then you had a good idea about the spa. Good Luck!
