Hi there. I'm Emily Elizabeth and I'm 2O. I live in Idaho and work at a Cheese Factory. I've not had this much fun at work in a long time. I want to be either a Criminal Profiler or a Cop before I'm 25. I graduated in 2OO3 ('O3 REPRESENT!) In High School, I ran the Advice Colum and had a blast with it!!

I've been in about every situation imaginable and I'm still alive and kicking. There is a light at the end of the tunnel, it's just a matter of finding it before it's to late. I will answer any question about anything, so don't be afraid to ask.

I'm currently single and I'm OK with that. I don't like being tied down, but I do have 3 Mexican lovers (inside joke) I love all types of music and am a crazy person who will do anything to make you smile, including breaking my shoulder to help my friend get a date. She got a date and I spent Friday night in the ER, that's friendship, right there LOL. I've got brown & pink hair at the moment and 9 piercings (6 in my lobes, 1 cartlidge, right nostril and navel) I drive a 2OO5 Ford Focus (so that means, yes, I've got a kick ass car, but I just signed the next 6 years of my life over to Ford haha)

Have an STUNNiNG day!!

**OK my friends name is Nancy.(changed to be confidential)Her idea of fun is drugs. Any time she can get a hold of a drug she takes advantage of it. The drugs "I KNOW OF" that she has tried is coke, aderal, and defently weed! Chronic is what she lives for, everyday after school she smokes with her sister. Any other drug she usually doesnt tell me bout. She also drinks. I dont think she does alot. Whats the problem your asking? my friend just turned 13 4 months ago!! Yea...so everytime i try to tell her "Nancy you're so much better than that and you kno it!" she just goes "Dude its nothing it cant hurt me" Nancy is a smart girl, she could do much with her life! I never kno if an ingrediant in any of the drugs she takes she could be allergic to. I need help, what do I do?!
**Anoynomous** (link)
Hi hun.

Wow, that's a hard situation!! Your friend doesn't seem to realize or care that not only is she hurting herself, but she's hurting her friends.

All drugs stay in your system for a long time (there are some drug tests that can find drug traces from 5-7 years prior!)

If she's smoking with her SiSTER... could you tell her parents, or would that make a difference? If none of that helps, talk to your parents or someone as school.

Good luck, let me know how it goes!!

...uhh i dk..she acts like my mother when my mom isnt home..*sad face*...-thx (link)
Hmm... that sucks! I didn't realize that, I thought she'd be cool with it heehee. Talk to her and see if she can think of any way to help convince your parents to let you have him over, either when they're there or she is.


yeah and if they ever found out that he came over theyd kill me..pluss im rarely home alone and my oldest sister just moved back home and she is turning 22 this thrusday on the the 21st..so idk..yeah i would actually like to b alone with him w/o having parents spying every 2 seconds..
-thx (link)
Hmm.. Maybe your sister, since she's older, she'd let him come over and be with you and not watch you ALL the time. I know what you mean about parents, it can suck sometimes!


ha i wouldnt be friends with him if he did that..when he is only 14...bc im a good little girl that doesnt hang out with assholes..and my parents wouldnt allow that either. :-p ..well my mom saw him a few times..idk bout my dad..and i dont think my dad even likes me hanging round guys at my age..bc once my friend was over and she invited this guy over my house and who i hate soooo soooo very much and my dad didnt like it that he was over..although it was outside..mayb to the fact it was 6:30 PM and it was Feb.?? sumthin like that

-thx again. (link)
OK, I was thinking... getting a girl preg at 14? Ouch. That'd suck!!

At least your Mom *seems* to like him, that's a good sign. All Dad's are like that with their daughters. I'm almost 2O and my Dad is still super protective.. and I'm the oldest LOL.

Talk to them and see if he can come over one day, early in the day, then you can have him "all to yourself" =)


yes i agree...but dont forget we have to go threw pregancy of their own child if they get up pregant!....ive known him since september 2003..but i only seen him once a week bc i met him at church and they had the confirmation class all taught at seprate classes although it was the same time and day..so i saw him for about 10-15 mins be4 class started..then once we had our confirmation in June i only saw him once in august w/ my friend and the 3 of us went to see The Village which was completly stupid..but it was kewl since i got to hang out with him for like 2 hours..then i saw him 2 weeks ago bc he wanted me to join youth group so i joined so i could see him more often and i can see my other BFF who i known since i was 7 and she doesnt go to public school anymoree although she lives to blocks away and all..and yeah he is one of my close BFF's...even the one who lives 2 blocks away from me said that it looks like he likes meh..but i dk..its all getting confusing..and im not suppose to date till im 16 so i gotta wait till March 2006..which bites ass *tear*- thx again (link)
Hi again =)

He got someone pregant?? That's cool you met him at Church, hopefully he's a "good boy" heehee.

If you have to wait until 2OO6, what I would do is just hang out with him at Youth Group and maybe go to a few movies together. Do your parents like him? If so, see if he can come over and hang out with you someday.

Good luck!!


-does he like me or does he like herr???
---is it me or is it her...or am i really her?
(sry i know this is long n confusing)


ok ..im 14/f and one of my best friends is 14/m..he doesnt go to my school...although lives in the district and i seem him here and there...hes been askin me how to ask a girl out..and i kept telling him to be himself..he just wont listen to me on that part advice...and he kepts telling me to put myself in that position..and i said "no" then he said "well its not hard 4 u ur a girl" and i said "its hard 4 us as well..bc we have to turn down guys we dont like"..and i dk how to tell just to be himself..bc he wont listen to that...and he a few days ago he asked me "how do i ask a girl out and not get turned down??"..and im like idk its not something predictable...and he goes to a private school..and i go to public school..so i have no clue who this girl is..if i did ..i would have asked her if she liked him..but i dk ....so im pointless at this point...-thx

P.S. also...i asked him the other night on-line what this girls name is and he said "marissa" and i asked him way be4 that.."what would you say if i said i liked you" and he said "i dunno" and said well what would your 1st response be if i said i did and he said "u do?" and i said oooo..then he said something or w/e and i said you scare me sometimes and he didnt say anything for 2 mins and i said..."do you care that you do sometimes" and he said "yea"..and i said "how much?" and he said "______________________________________________________________________________"
and i said "ooohh"..and when we got into an little argument over what is harder being a girl or being a guy...and he said we have it easier..and when i said "no we dont bc we have to turn down guys who ask us out, i had to do it 5 times" and he said "w/ whoooo?"..like if he was affaird i was taken or something..ahh it drives me insane..-thx again (link)
Hi there. Thanks for asking me, it's my first question I get to answer from a letter =)

I think since he keeps asking YOU on how to ask a girl out, he might be hinting to you that he'd like to go out with you. That would be my guess.

I would talk to him and tell him that you like him (I'm assuming that you do) and see what happens from there. If he is one of your best friends, I don't think anything would be a problem.

On a side note, I think it's both equally hard being a girl or a guy, if that helps any.

Good luck & let me know how it goes.



Ok! Well I have to go to the doctor tuesday with my mom to get birth control. Im just really stressing out about the papsmear. I shave down there and Im not sure whether or not I want my mom in the room when they do that. They also have to ask you if your sexually active and I really dont want my mom knowing all that either! Any info, advice, etc.? (link)
Hi. If you don't want your Mom in there, tell her, "Mom, I would appricate it if you'd stay in the waiting room so the Docto & I can talk openly." If she can't accept that, then talk to the Doctor and by rights, they should make her leave. If it's a male doctor, you could always ask for a nurse to be in there, if you're nervous about that.

About the birth control pills, I got kinda lucky, I got put on them for prevention of cysts, but I use them for the obvious too LOL

Here is a link that tells a TON of info about visit's and what not. Good luck!!

Hey. It's not the greatest thing in the world, but it's not the worst either. Go here:: http://www.plannedparenthood.org/womenshealth/keytogyn2.html

It's has TONS of info! Hope this helps!



I recently had my pap smear and the results came back fine. My doctor said that the Pap smear was normal. I did not have the HPV, but this is were I'm confused, she told me to go back for another testing in 6 months because they found changes in the cells of my cervix.

Thank You So Much for any information that you can pass on to me.

Hi.

All I can think is that there may have been something on them that could be potentially wrong, but they want to wait a little bit longer to check.

I'd consider going to another doctor, for a second opinion though, just in case.

Go to www.webmd.com and see if you can find anything there. Drop me a line in my inbox when you find out something, or have more questions. Good luck!

so theres this country song and i wanna know who sings it and what its called. its about a guy and girl killing themselves...something like a drunken lullaby or somethin. please help i rate 5's all around! (link)
I *think* it's Whiskey Lullaby by Brad Paisley. That's what it sounds like to me LOL

Here are the lyrics for that song. Hope it helps.

Brad Paisley & Alison Krauss
(Bill Anderson/Jon Randall)

(Brad)
She put him out like the burnin' end of a midnight cigarette
She broke his heart, he spent his whole life tryin' to forget
We watched him drink his pain away a little at a time
But he never could get drunk enough to get her off his mind
Until the night.

Chorus:
He put that bottle to his head and pulled the trigger
And finally drank away her memory
Life is short but this time it was bigger
Than the strength he had to get up off his knees
We found him with his face down in the pillow
With a note that said I'll love her 'til I die
And when we buried him beneath the willow
The angels sang a whiskey lullaby.

(Both)
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la.

La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la.

(Alison)
The rumors flew but nobody knew how much she blamed herself
For years and years she tried to hide the whiskey on her breath
She finally drank her pain away a little at a time
But she never could get drunk enough to get him off her mind,
Until the night.

Chorus: (Both)
She put that bottle to her head and pulled the trigger
And finally drank away his memory
Life is short but this time it was bigger
Than the strength she had to get up off her knees
We found her with her face down in the pillow
Clinging to his picture for dear life
We laid her next to him beneath the willow
While the angels sang a whiskey lullaby.

La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la.

me and my bf recently slept together and now i fink i mite be pregnant but im wondering can somebody under 16 have an abortion whitout their parents knowind thanx (link)
Hey. If you just had sex (like within the past 72 hours) you can go to Planned Parenthood and get the "Morning After Pill" that will help in preventing pregancy. However, if it's been longer than 72 hours.. that wouldn't help.

You must be 18 in order for your parents to not know. I was also reading some other answers and most insurances/medicare won't cover abortions unless it's needed to help save the mother, like the pregancy could put her life in danger and generally they run around $400-$500, just so you know.

What I would do is take the test and then go from there. Don't worry until you know, because worrying and stress will make your period late.

Good luck & let me know how things go.

I'm 15 years old and currently have a job that pays $5.80/hour...8 hours a day...that means around $40. I work 5 days a week and the paychecks are every two weeks. What would you do to keep from spending all your money at once? Please help...

$$$$-*Money Spender*-$$$$
(link)
Hi there. I know what you mean about spending money like crazy. I make about $4OO.OO a paycheck also. Where do you work by the way?

Anyways, what I did was I got a savings account and put 70% of the money in there and then kept the rest out as play money. That would work because I knew my alloted amount.

However, I just bought a car and with that and insurance, my play money is VERY limited, we're talking to around $3O.OO per paycheck. It's not bad though, because I got a cool car =)

But yes, try to open a savings account, that'd be my best advice. Let me know how things go!

Good Luck,

Em


i have WinMx and its not working! im soooo frustrated! it worked ever since i had it but then one day it suddenly stops working. like i'll be connected and everything but every time i search for a song/artist NOTHING COMES UP! even if its like the most popular song ever. like you know on the top where it counts the time you've been connected to winmx? well now it only says P=5 S=2 spm=7349. GOSH what is wrong? im definitly connected to it, and plus i have cable. someone please help, im so annoyed! i'll rate you 5 for anything! (link)
Hey =) I had WinMX at one point too, I hated it because it never worked and took for ever, even though I've got DSL.. Anyways, I'd try taking it toally off and going to http://www.aresgalaxy.org/ and download that program. It's REALLY fast and you can get software, videos, music and tons of stuff. Have fun! I don't know if it works with Mac however.. so hopefully you have a PC =)

Good luck! Em


okay i have a big problem! i was all excited because i just got my cartlidge done! but i came home and told my best friend! and she asked what ear i got done and i told her my right one! and she said that if a girl gets just her right cartlidge done...that means shes a lesbian?! omg i'm all upset now! is that realli what rumors say?! because i'm definitly NOT one!
i'll rate you a 5! (link)
Hi =)

Getting it on the right side means you wanted it on the right side. My cartlidge is on my left and my nose is on my right.. and I'm totally straight, I love those boys ;)

Maybe she's just jealous of your new piercing? Just remember to clean it like you were told too =)

Have a good day! Em


This may be kinda long, but I need to ask someone. I just started taking birth control pills 3 weeks ago. I think I may be pregnant but, I havent missed my next scheduled period. Since I just started taking the pill, that messes up my cycle for this month. I have other signs of possibly being pregnant. Being on my pills the nurse told me I should be getting my period around the 13th of this month. My boyfriend and I are very sexually active..in fact every night. I know we shouldnt do it, but it is unprotected each time. Is there a way that I could find out now if I could be pregnant..like take a pregnancy test tomorrow and find out? Im really nervous and want to know if I am now. I need to know what to do soon. Thanks. (link)
Hi there.

For the first little bit, your period will be wacky and will kind of come on it own time. I was told to wait about a month and a half before sex with out any other protection, so if it was me, I'd quit having sex for a few days and keep taking the pill. When you are you done with the active ones, wait and fo from there. I'd take a test sometime soon though, like in the next day or so. Go to any store and they have them there, or go to the doctor's office. Good luck & let me know what happens.

Em =)


I can't seen to find one great friend for myself. I really have no one to go to to laugh with and share my secrets with and most importantly, to dream with. Almost all of the people at my school don't seem to really want to hang out with me. Everyone that I've had up to this point has either gone away or betrayed me. It hurts. I consider a true friend to be someone that you would lay down your life for and they'd do the same for you any day and I used to have one like that, but he's gone now. What do I do?
Love,
Shana (link)
Hi Shana =)

I know what you mean. It seems like when I find a "good friend" something happens and we end up parting way, generally not on good terms. It's just not fair!

All I could offer is to know what you want and seek them out. You sound a lot like me, wanting someone to share things with and to have a good time with. I'm sure that there is someone at your school who'd love to hang out with you, you just need to find them =)

Good luck and drop me a line in my inbox to let me know how things go. Take care!

hey ok my sisters 30 birthday is sunday. im going over to her house saturday because she just got married and shes having a wedding party and showing her video of the wedding and pictures! anyways, i have NO idea what to get her!! shes outgoing and she has blonde hair lol. she has 2 kids. and her husband has 3. umm she has 3 ear piercings, and she had a belly and nose piercing. i HARDLY EVER get to see her like once every 2 months. we talk alot tho. any good ideas? thanks.
(link)
Hmm... piercings... I'd maybe go to a store like Hot Topic or even Claire's and get her a belly ring or a nose ring, or even a gift card. Those are good because she can get whatever she wants to.

If she reads, maybe a gift card to Barnes & Nobel.

Anyway you go, I'd say gift card would be the "safest" because then she could pick out her own gift. If all else, ask her and see what she'd like or have your parents find out.

Good luck! =)


Sorry... this is a sex question and there are somewhat graphic content. Not really bad but if you're young, you might not want to read this. Please only OLDER columnists answer this. I don't want advice from an inexperienced 13-14 year old. Someone who knows what I'm going through would help. And so... here's my question....



Hey, I'm 14/f and my boyfriend is 16. Yesterday I was at his house and we were doing sexual things and then I told him to go get a condom. (he uses them normally for self pleasure so it doesn't get anywhere...) So he went upstairs and got it but when he came back down I was crying. I don't know why I was crying. I really feel like I'm ready to have sex with him. We've been together for 2 years and we love eachother very much. It's weird though, I know that I'm physically and emotionally ready to do it it's just that, whenever we are about to, I get scared. Is this normal? Can anyone help me out?

PS- I'm a virgin and so is my boyfriend and we both want to lose our virginity to eachother. (link)
First off, aww that you two want to take each others' virginity. That's really sweet!! =)

It sounds like to me that you got scared of something happening.. that's what happened with me the first time. I backed out once, felt like crap, but I knew that moment wasn't good. We waited 2 days and it was perfect.

Getting back to you though ;) I think that the only way you'll be able to know when the time is right is when your heart tells you. That's great you have condoms, but I'd reccomend another method, like the pill to be extra safe. Good luck and let me know if it goes through =)


hey hey! well i was wondering how long it usually takes for the tanning bed to work and the color to kick in?? and for you to start getting noticably dark?? also what are some good lotions?? thanks!! (link)
Hey. For me, it took about a week. I'd reccomend "Australian Gold" lotions, those work the best. Something fun is to put a sticker on, in the same place all the time and watch to see how much darker you get over time. By the 2nd day, you'll be able to see it, but the week is how long it took to go WOW!! Good luck! =)


what is the best thing to put on cuts and sratches to make the marks go away? thanx (link)
Hey there. Neosporen works really well, or if you can afford it, Mederna (it's like $7O.OO a bottle for it, but it really works well)

Good luck!
