i did something totally embarassing on friday that makes me never want to go to school againn. okay well we were reading some boring paper thing in science and it was about organisms and how they pollute water or something like that, i don't know. well my teacher passed out a worksheet and we had to write down the answers to the questions from the text, and by mistake (i wasnt paying attention) i wrote down "orgasm" instead of "organism". when my teacher was correcting the papers and she came to mine, she just literally burst out laughing and that freaking asshole TOLD THE CLASS that i wrote that down. i died of embarassment, seriously.. i cant even face that class anymore. what can i do?!!?!?!?! pleasee helppp. thankk you. (link)
hahahahhahaha laugh it off! ive done that like actually 5 times and all of my friends have done it... not that were like kinky or anything but its just such a common mistake
the first time i did it i was like errrr hehe and then i just laughed at myself. its like actually not a big deal! there was a reason she told the class, because its not that bad, its just funny!
also i once read the EXACT same story in a magazine, and they also said they just laughed it off.
it would be worse SAYING it out loud because then the class wouldve gone queiet, but its not a big deal, so dont worry about it! the only reason your "dying of embarassmenT" is because your thinking about it too much.

but i know what you mean, sometimes i do something that isnt that embarassing but its like ahh, so just dont go to school that day, and tell your mom your sick. if its a morning class just say im not feeling too well, and if its an eenigng one, call home and be like i dont feel well

but just try not to worry about it no one will care most likely


i know it costs standard texting fees to send and recieve... but does it cost to sign on or refresh buddy list or what?

does it cost airtime minutes?

please tell me all you know. i have verizon

thx. (link)
signing in, out, or refreshing it will NOT cost you anything. and yesss it does cost standard texting fees but you can get a package/bundle to make it cheaper if you use it a lot


deos it usually hurt when you take out your tampon (link)
maybe a little, but it shouldnt hurt too much



13/f New boyfriend, we've been going out for about a week. I know a week isn't alot, but I like him alot. I mean, alot.

So yesterday I went iceskating with him, and these "a-holes that he goes to class with" were like, "makeout! makeout!" and we ended up not making out. Because who wants to makeout with everryone watching you?

So he asked me to go to the movies with him, and I really couldn't say no. So I told my mom about it. She was like, "Ill think about it" and now it turns out that shes not letting me go because I could "get into the wrong situation" or "earn myself bad repuatation" "I cant go to the movies with a boy!" So I asked one of my friends to go, but she still isn't letting me. I've been crying for hours. Yeahh, I know she's trying to protect me and all that, but pleaseee.

I really have no idea what to do, because if I blow that plans off I have a feeling I'm going to get dumped. Even if I don't, I'll still feel really bad that I didn't go with him because I know he really wants to go.

Is there ANY way I could convince my mom to let me go to the movies? Help, asap. ): (link)
hey

calmly explain to your mom that you really want to go to the movies. explain to her that youre old enough to make responsible decisions for yourself. MAKE SURE YOU SAY, "i want to hear your point of view. why wont you let me go to the movies?" DO NOT SCREAM OR YELL. she will think youre more mature and trust you more if you calmly treat her like an adult and ACT like an adult. do you see adults screaming and yelling for what they want? NO they have to negotiate. PLEASE make sure you say "i want to hear your point of view."

if she says, "no' ask her to explain. say that you won't do anything stupid, and you'll keep your cell (if you have one) on throughout the movie. tell her you know that she's doing it for your good, but you want to make the final decision.

i hope i helped, and DONT scream whatEVER you do.

good luck with the cute boyy :]


i dont have any white nail polish and i really need some QUICK! i cant go to the store or anything.. how can i make some white nail polish or use some household material to paint my nails white? thankss (link)
hey

try the nail-polish like white-out. you know, not the pen or the tape. the liquid with the little applicator.

the pen will make it blot and the tape will peel.


i did this graffiti thing on my wall in acryllic paint and i dont like it anymore but its huge so i dont know what to do about it! i cant paint over it because i cant get the paint. what can i do????? (link)
scratch it off or tape pictures all over the wall


I am quite pretty but I always feel self-conscious cos my teeth are wonky. I mean, I have a great figure and a pretty face except for my teeth and it really gets to me. Like, I don't like smiling with my mouth open because of my teeth. It makes me feel really self-conscious and makes me not very confident. I'm just wodering, if you saw a pretty girl with a good figure and then saw she had wonky teeth would it put you off? Also, I would like to know how I can stop it from bothering me so much, any advice? (link)
hii

i mean it wouldn't really put me off. but i mean are they crooked? do you need to get braces? there's this type of brace and it's like clear so no one knows you have it on. and it's not that expensive!

i hope i helped!


I was wondering if there's a way, when you turn off your computer or log off your acccount, are there keys to press so you can cancel cancel it?

Because I always forget that my sister is downloading on the other account that takes her hours and only need like 10 mins but i forget and shut it..

This keeps happening and she's going to kill me (link)
hey

i dont think there is a setting or button that you can press that reverses the shut down.

sorry to say, but i think you just have to remind yourself to not shut down the computer.

i never shut my down.. i just leave it on 24/7.

or, just tell her to shut it down when she's done with her session. that way, no one will be upset :]

i hope i helped!

13 | f how can i get a vibrator without my mom or dad or sisters knowing. and where could i possibly hide it? (link)
some vibrators are made to massage your neck muscles. just tell your mom you neck hurts really bad and get her to order you one. tell her your friend has one for her neck.


I bought a shirt at abercrombie & fitch 20 days ago today.
i haven't worn it or anything and I don't like it.
now it's on sale for $20.
I want to return it.... the return policy says 15 days...
any chance I could get them to return it... 5 days after?

any excuses? (link)
same thing happened to me. they gave me the shirt for the sale price, because i said i just got it as a gift yesterday or something like that :].

good luck



I WOULD REALLY LIKE SOME GUYS TO ANSWER THIS ALSO., not just girls. kaythnx

hi. i dont know what caategory to put this as. but anyways. i really hate how i look, i think im soo ugly. but theres alot of friends of my friends who think im SO hott. but all the guys at my school dont think im not hott. heres a picture of me, can anyone give my sugestions/or tell me what they think of me? like tell me if you think im pretty or whatever. and be honestt, please. i take critisims (SP?) well. so yeah heres the pic... http://a652.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/60/l_dd4937230d074434256e580b3c109653.jpg. be honest. do you think im ugly, pretty, what? (link)
honestly, i think your prettyy and you dont need to change at all.

guys who dont see that are just plain stupidd.

your hair color is gorgg, and that dress looks fab. on you :]


hope it helped!


im freaking out. it's almost the end of the marking period, and i have a C in one of my classes. im retaking a test in that class so it will hopefully bring it up, but i also have 2 bs. i used to be such a good student and now i get distracted by the social stuff. how can i be more focused on my school work during the week? how can i imporve my work ethic? (link)
hey

this is what i do: i get back from school at 3ish and immediately start my hw. like i dont have a snack or anything i just get cracking. i do this NON-STOP. i do not stop for phone, computer, aim... etc. nothing. i just keep going. unless i have to pee. hahaa okay so after you finish ALL your hw, get a snack then (around like 4, 4 30) and then you can do whatever you wnat for the rest of the night :]

if you get back from schoollllll, go ont he computerrrrrr, and all of a sudden, BAM! 6 30! who feels like doing hw at 6 30?! so just get it out of the way when you get back from school.

how to improve your work ethic: get done with the easy stuff first. like worksheets. that way, you can look at your agenda and say "well i only have ___ left to do" (laeve the longest stuff for last). if you have trouble, ask for help. i dont really suggest this, but it might spark an idea... i usually do like worksheets during class :-x and during lunchh. so if you finish your oreos early, just work on that worksheet. and also, a lot of my teachers come in a few minutes after the bell because they were socializing, so get a few problems then!

i also keep a homework folder. like, if i have a quiz on friday in reading and its just like memorizing one sheet of paper, just stick it in the homework folder... that way you dont have to drag the whole binder home! worksheets, etc. can go in there too. take it to every class.

i strongggly suggest always doing your hw. like try your best. that way, one day if you REALLY feel gross and dont feel like doing hw, you can just skip one assignment. its wonderful being a good student cause teachers wont mind if you just miss one hw. you know?

i really hope i helped - and dont worry if you have one C. just try your best next marking period. study for as long as you need, whether it be 5 minutes or an hour. you have to familiarize yourself with the material. just reading it doesnt do anything. if they give a study guide, DONT do it first thing. study all the material until you feel confident. then, do the study guide. this way, you know what to improve on instead of just heading straight for the study guide and looking through your notes every question. treat it like the test. make up practice problems (or just look in the book?)

:]


first off,I heard that you should wash your hair every other day to make it healthy...what does the term"every other day" mean???

2nd,what can I do to stop my hair from thinning and regain more hair growth?

3rd,i heard conditioner is bad for your hair,is that true?

4th, can wearing a cap spoil your hair??

5th,can piercings spoil your hair.and do the CBR,or piercing rings such as lip rings contain copper?

thanks a lot (link)
hey

every other day = today is monday. (lets say) dont wash it tomorrow. wash it wednesday. like, wash it the day after tomorrow. not monday tuesday wednesday thursday friday... monday wednesday friday. understand?

there are lots of different shampoos. personally, i prefer using herbal essences :]

um... whoever told you that has serious issues. i dare you to try washing your hair without conditioner. you can't brush it! you need conditioner to moisturize your hair. ... it's like if you NEVER put lotion on, and only always washed your skin. uhh? it will get super dry and break.

you can wear hats but in moderation. it might cause your hair to fall out.

why would piercings spoil your hair? i seriously doubt it. it might, but i really dont think so. and if it does, just buy a special shampoo for it.

hope i helped :]


Can someone tell me what girls wear under these so that noone seees underneath and what colour? (say under wear or thong, and what colour underneath so noone will notice and colour of bra, I hope you'll say under wear because i've never wore a thong before..)

under a white skirt (i wore white underwear underneath yet people could still see it..

colour of bra for a dress

a white shirt

and sweat pants! people always either can see the colour of underwear im wearing or see the marks but if i wear a thong then they'd prob still see arg i need to excercise!

and i think that's it thanks! (link)
hey

okay, if youre wearing a white skirt, find a pair of underwear that best matches your skin tone (maybe like tan) and wear that. or wear cheekies.. they semi go into your butt but only a little so that the actual line of your underwear doesnt show.

depends on the dress... tube? strapless. halter? probably strapless or halter-type (if your bra does that)

white shirt? same thing- find a bra that best matches your skin tone. or, wear whatever color bra you want and wear a white tank-top underneath

sweat pants- when you wear a thong, no one knows. trust me. just wear a thong, or wear cheekies.

i hope i helped!

btw- cheekies are inbetween underwear and thong.


ok since my last few questions i finaly made up my mind about who i should ask out, but this girl shes realy quiet and the only times i could ak her is going to my home room or PE so my problem is how should i go up toher and ask her? (link)
ha, last month.. a boy asked me out in class.. and i was soo embarrassed! but idk she might be different, you could go up to her and say "i was wondering.. do you wanna go out with me?" or you could give it to her in a note.. or you could give her your # in a note, and when she calls, ask her out then.


Okay, I am a 29 yr. old mom of a 10 year old daughter. Today I was freaked out when I walked in on her in the bathroom and realized she must have started puberty a long time ago. No period or anything yet but the hair is there. OH MY GOD!! I think this is way too soon, I was 13! I'm so not prepared, I love her and want to talk to her about this maturely, but maturely...shes 10!!!!!!!!My mother never talked to me about these things, when i was 13 I had a ruptured appendix and started my period soon after the surgery, I thought it was from the surgery i was clueless!LOL some advice please?? Thanks (link)
i was the same age.. 10.. that's normal. it's alright. most kids don't like it when their moms talk to them. but if she's the kind that does like it, go for it. go ahead and stock up on pads, just incase and tell her where they are at and stuff. you could buy her some bras if she doesn't already have them, so she doesn't have to ask. just be cool and she'll appreciate it. lol. if she doesn't shave, now would be the time to start. just buy her a razor, and tell her how to do it, if she wants you to explain. anything else, ask me.. because i'm a teenager lol.


I have acne. Help me get rid of it. What products can I use? Is there anything I should avoid eating? (I know, i know...don't pick...blah blah..) I just want to get things from Target/Rite Aid etc...I don't want to order anything like Proactiv (link)
hey

every night, just wash your face with a cleanser. scrub really well. and dry it. and DONT touch the pimples after you waash your face. do this 2-3 times daily (maybe once in the morning, once when you get back from school, once before you go to bed)

just a plainn cleanser. do this for like, a week. and the pimples WILL clear up. dont ever pick at a pimple. EVER. or "pop" them. they WILL get infected, take longer to go away, as well as leave horrible scars.

eat lots of fruits and veggies and no chips / sodas / cookies. no junk food.

drink water.


is there anyway to get an AIM profile or an AIM away tracker that is not a link?? that's too obvious.

thanks! (link)
you could do the link thing..
but then instead of writing- "Viewers!" or something, just put "." or something, like hidden in text..you know?


i was just wondering. is there anyone on this website that wears pads instead of tampons? cause i've tried so many times and read the directions but i just couldnt put a tampon in. also if you wear pads do you play sports? cause i do and i wear pads and i wanna know if its bad. i think its really uncomfortable though. thankss. (link)
hey

totally agree with the ladies below me :] tampons are SO much better, girl. seriously. once you figure out how to work it, you will be like, "omg, this is the best invention ever."

for the first time, i strongly suggest you really really spread out your legs and just stick the plastic applicator REALLY FAR into your vaj. like, you hold the end of the plastic applicator and stick it so far that your fingers touch your vaj (thats how far it SHOULD go in.) i know the first time i put it in i got scared and i thought i was gonna put it in too deep. if you feel it when you walk, you didnt put it in far enough. after you put the plastic applicator all the way in, push the end of the tampon (plastic) up so that the cotton gets pushed out the other end and straight into your vaj.

trust me. put it in farther than you think cause if you dont put it in far enough, you feel it and its REALLY uncomfyy.

you can swim with tampons. you can wear thongs. you dont have to be self-concious in the locker room. you dont smell. no one knows when you have your period. you can move about freely. you dont "feel" the blood pouring onto your pad. the list is endless.

tampons are life.

i hope i helped, and pleeeaseee try tampons, girl! the only reason why people use pads is cause they dont know how to properly use tampons!

THEYRE SO MUCH LESS MESSY TOO! AND THEY NEVER LEAK.

people use TSS as an argument back, but i mean only like 1 in 2309583294032 people get it. and if you change it every 4-6 hours, no worries. tampons make no noise when you take it out of the wrapper (unlike pads) and can fit in your pocket.

seriously.

- hope i helped!
