Woot YEAH an anime fan here!^-^

You're probably different than me because if I stare at a pretty good enough anime picture for like 30 mins, I can start to draw it slowing onto paper but looking at it =/

What you could do is get a pretty simple picture, put it under a blank page, and keep tracing and tracing again until it covers up the whole page and maybe you'll get used to drawing that picture.

The key things here is PRACTICE.

There's many different styles of the body just like real people like eyes and things. You can just practice drawing random body parts like different eyes, hair, arms, etc and then when you get it you can mix them together and make your own anime character.

Or with those skills, you could probably draw some of your fav anime characters!

I can't draw anime that much by freehand but I can draw chibi characters! xD

Hoped I helped!

Awww cute! =] much love too!

um...with the "so, can anyone help???" sounds like you didn't know that you had to make an account get advice form everyone...but since you posted this on my column, I'll try to answer the best I can since romance is not my expertise and I never even had a boyfriend lol.

Well, all relationships are different.

Some people are really close in public but are not even close when they're at home or anything. Some are close together but are like nothing in public. Some couples even barely look like couples, calling each other names and punching each other, but they love each other =]

So yeah, your relationship is really cute actually ^-^

Maybe you don't really talk to each other a lot on the phone is because maybe you both can't talk while thinking of what else to talk at the same time. On the computer, you can take your time thinking what you want to say, and then type it down.

Maybe you guys aren't the public couple type, but it looks like he's trying to come over it.

The relationship looks pretty good to me! But if you want to talk to him a lot, think of things to discuss.

Hoped I helped!

Aww thank you! ^-^

I honestly DON'T see anything wrong with that, it's only 3 years apart.

The guys I like are like..7 years older than me so definitely nothing wrong xD

Though I'd probably wait another year to date that guy though or else your parents might freak a little lmao

Other than what the person below me said, I think you can buy it at Wal Mart or look for it in one of those places that sells hair products and in Salons for teens.

I got mine from my hair cutter. She always has the best stuff but I don't know how you can get it since she has her own bussiness in her house.

But if you're willing maybe try buying it through the internet.

I searched in the internet and I don't know where you live but you can buy it at..Kroger. I'm pretty sure I don't have that where I live though.

I have no idea about the salon or any others specifically but if you're willing to pay a lot for one dance then it's your decission, just keep in mind that it better be worth it because if it turns out bad and you pay a lot of money..

Or you could seriously make them do it all over then, you payed for it and deserve what you want. From your additional info, it sounds really good and it must be a good experience to try it even once.

And don't worry about the make up artists. Seriously, they're sweet compared to photoshop workers for magazines, those guys will fix a tiny problom as if it's super serious or something.

Those people are just superficial and point out everything. They're trying to make you feel bad so you'll get mroe make up. It's what you expect when you talk to sellers and it's one of their top ways of selling things. Sellers that don't sell cosmetics and make people feel bad in many other ways too.

If you didn't have so many flaws, you're probably a manikin.

If they start to tell you about your flaws, tell them to just shut up and do their job because they're getting payed for it, and that you also think that they could use a lot of make up for their mouth cuz it needs A LOT of adjusting.

Keep in mind that if you think after that they're purposely trying to make you look bad or it jsut really does look bad, don't be afraid to make a scene or demand to tlak to the boss or manager there. If they get fired, it's their problem.

That's what make up does, cover up your flaws and that's why people have so much make up. Obviously, they have big issues on their looks and their just trying to rub off the problem on others.

People who wear no or less make up are confident with their looks.

Hope I helped and good luck!

Hmm..I'd say for yummy but low in fat and sugar but tastes good..these are what I'd go for:

-Breakfast Wraps (Like burrito wraps)

-Omelet

-Things with fruit

-Fat-free yogurt

-Muffins

-Low fat pancakes (ask the restaurant)

-A good fruit bar (though I don't think they have those at a restaurant..)

-If that place makes drinks such as smoothies and you are allowed to say whatever you want, you can tell them to make sure to blend in thier most fresh fruits and don't include sugar or put like 1/4 amount of sugar that they would usually put in (hey noone barely wakes up to go somewhere for breakfast so you can tell them =])

-My best answer would be fresh fruit topped with low-fat yogurt and crispy whole-grain cereal

Some high fat meals in McDonalds consists of Egg McMuffin, Sausage McMuffin and hash brown patties so try to avoid those, whether form McDonalds are not cuz they're greasy.

Hope that helped!

Definitely those old songs that kids and everyone knows like Disney songs, Happy Birthday, Old MacDonald..etc

Ahh I get them all the time! It's very normal actually. There's some solutions:

Have you been cleaning your ear?

If it hurts then you need to go to the doctors and get you some antibioctics (I hope that's spelled right but it's pronounced as ANTI-BYE-AW-DICTS). It's just some yummy medicine that you take and it'll just go right away.

If you can't hear and you cleaned out your ear, there could be some 'things' clogged insde your ear and you just go to the doctors and ask them if they can use THE SINGE or THE EAR SINGE on you. (unless they do something else)

Don't worry, it's like like a water gun, it looks like a needle but they just fill it up with water and they just sqirt into your ear (minus the needle part) like a water gun.

DON'T just get a water gun and start squirting into your ear!

Doctors look into your ear with a thing and shoot it at specific angles to remove..the 'thing'..

After that, you'll feel much better. And don't worry, doctors are your friends =]

Hope this helped.

Konichiwa! Well for me, a big sign for me is that I get a lot of pimples and acne, but that doesn't happen to everyone.

You don't get brown discharge...you get a discharge but it shouldn't be brown. If it is brown and it has a horrible smell (well worst then how it usually is) then that's a yeast infection and that's a bad thing.

You do get cramps before period, and it hurts even more DURING it.

There's also a pattern in every month for your period, like a similarity in the dates so you will know when is your next period but it takes a long time before that starts to happen and continue regularly.

You can get very irritated and change moods from sad, to mad, or happy and then suddenly sad. Called mood swings.

You have cravings for certain types of food. For me it's sweets like candy.

I think that's it. If you don't understand, I'll include a translation but my translator isn't perfect:

Hey it's only 15 mins! I'm pretty sure they're not making you do extreme excercises in 15 mins like sit ups or something because it's in a classroom so it's alright.

The reason why they're doing this is because they know that it's not their responsibility and that it's yours. But some people aren't responsible.

Isn't that why you and others are in this mess right now?

And as you've said it, your teacher is really strict so she/he would probably yell at toher if they make fun of you.

If it makes you better better you can get a better experience by excersing regularly at home to get into more shape.

Trust me, fat or not, feelng the burn after just makes you feel great and that you achieved a goal. It kinda gains you confidence and makes you more comfortable to excercise in front of others if you were fit from it, wouldn't you agree?

Or you could talk about it to the principle to make you do it after school or soemthing, but I think you'd rather do it with the class or else kids will say means things about you because you're the only one in the class who gets to skip the excercise so it's better to deal with it.

The good thing is that, it's in the homeroom right? So isn't that you're first class in the morning so you'll only have to face it for 15 mins in one class and noone else will know about it since it's rare that many people are in your next class (and more rare all the same class as you) ?

I hope you're not offended or anything from my advice (I didn't mean to be) because some people that are my friends and that i know are...big, and they just participate for the fun. You just have to face it and suck it up like a man ;)

Maybe excercising with a friend beside you in class will make it easier and boost up your confidence. It does for me. And remember, you're not the ONLY fat person in class. I'm pretty sure others understand.

You won't draw negative attention from others on sharing your opinions to the class, as long as you keep your language in check. As far as I know, if it was me and someone voiced out the same opinions as me, that would make me gain confidence and participate.

Yes it's normal. I think it's because you're eating really healthy with all the fiber and that's why you have to go right after you finish eating.

I say you either get someone that has legal age to drive and like follow him, and what a great friend that person will be =]

or you just have to confront to him and make him confess it out if he is or isn't cheating. Tell him it's better he says it now:

-while you're young

-instead of people around the house getting anxiety and can't sleep because they keep wondering if he really is cheating.

-and that it's better now then when you're older with more stress and it'll be harder on everyone.

If your mom really doesn't care or doesn't want to hear it, then leave her alone. Sometimes it takes a while to get used to the facts if or if not he is cheating. She needs a little time for herself to think it over.

And if it's not about your mom and it's just about how you're feelings, I suggest calling the kids Help Phone.

And sometimes, things may really seem like things that you're suspecting but it really isn't so prepare yourself that you might be wrong. It could be easier to your dignity and avoiding embarrassment if you did.

I know sometimes I'll suspect something that really seems like what I expect but it isn't.

Hope this helped, good luck!

Lmao that's not confusing at all, they're called fan vids. You don't download videos from YouTube, you can download them anywhere.

There's a program on your computer called Window Movie Maker and click on Import Videos.

From there you can cut the videos into clips however you like and just put them into any order you like, even with music, save, and upload on YouTube.

Hoped that helped =D

I'd say stairs are a big thing. I do it straight for 15 mins a day but if you're about to it, half an hour.

Wow I gotta agree with hating the things in your mouth, especially if you're going to have it on for a year.

Hmm...Well I'm pretty sure you won't be able to gag since he or she puts the parts one at a time.

When I was about to receive my head gear (something before I have to have my braces on), they asked me questions like "Do you breathe out of your nose? Is there any problems that might make this difficult?"

You just have to mention that to them that you gag really easily and you really mean it when you come get your braces done. Even write it on your hand if you have to before they do it to remind you and tell them to take it easy. It's their job and your mouth so they better do the heck of a good job and not start other problems!

I gotta say that a HUGE tip for anything that has to do with your teeth whether it's the orthodontist or dentist for me is to OPEN YOUR MOUTH AS WIDE AS YOU CAN! Lmao I'm serious, go to your mirror, stick your hands in your mouth and start trying now (and then wash your hands!)!

You have to try to open your mouth as large as you can. If you have a huge mouth, even better!

Dentist always tell you to open your mouth bigger so they can see your teeth when they check upon a certain one. My orthodontist didn't have a little lamp thing for each person like in the dentist so you have to keep that in mind.

You need to open your mouth as wide as you can, painful or not. As you know, braces go like everywhere in your mouth so you gotta open wide so they can see everything easily to be able to put braces in your back teeth too. You wouldn't want him to call another nurse or something to hold your mouth open and make you gag would you?

Make sure to brush your teeth nice and clean before you go to make it easier for them, if you don't already.

Well I'm not sure how long it took…depends how co-operative you are. Mine took about half an hour I think cuz the opening of your mouth really works!

But I can tell you the things they did from what I can remember..?

Ok well first thing they have to clean your teeth with the whole brushing and stuff before they put it on. If you brushed and flossed your teeth before you came, GREAT! Makes it easier for them, faster for you!

I don't remember if they did but I think they sticked these stuff in your mouth to make sure your mouth is wide open and it HURTS LIKE HELL! Made your mouth bigger when done they were done…

Um...if you didn't already have stuff around your too last teeth on both top and bottom teeth, then they'll put something around it and put this glue on it that tastes disgusting and you'll have to wait a long time and then they'll make you rinse your mouth in the bathroom. YUCK! But I think you have it on already before you get ready for your braces.

Then, the really smelly part! I hope that you've been around a skunk before and was fine with it because after cleaning, they put like the glue or some smelly thing in each teeth to stick the braces on your teeth. SMELLS LIKE SHIT! I think it’s ok then to breathe out of your mouth, if you can.

To me, other then the cleaning, that's the longest thing about putting braces on. They leave you alone for God knows how long for the glue thing to dry or cool off on your teeth. So you get like 15 minutes with a skunk -.-

Then, they just stick the brackets on your teeth, which are those square things. Doesn't hurt at all!

Still opening your mouth as wide as you can? =)

Then, you wait more so the bracket and glue go stick together to stay on your teeth...

Then here come a pretty painful or annoying part, depending on how gay your teeth are. You know when you make your hands like a C and move them up and down as if they're talking? That's kinda how they open up the brackets to hold the wire in.

It’s just a little stick, poke it in the hole of the square, move it up, and it should pry open. And they just keep doing that for every tooth.

My two smallest teeth and sensitive teeth were the ones that looked like a dog tooth on both sides on my teeth at the top. It was being stubborn and wont' open so the lady had to stick it in as hard as she could and push with all her might to open it and it finally came open and my two teeth was sore as hell.

Then they just stick the wires in, close the brackets (which doesn't hurt at all as it might opening them), and you're done!

Tip #3! Ask for A LOT OF WAX! I don't know the damn why they give you one freakin pack of wax. I think you need about 5 or 10!

It doesn't really hurt but an hour later you'll start to feel the pain of the braces coming and pulling your teeth slowly together.

You'll might need to eat soup for the rest of the week until your teeth isn't sore and can take it. I don't know if you have super sensitive teeth like mine but if you do, I had soup for every meal for 3 or 4 weeks.

If you do, PLEASE! Experiment with your soup to make it healthy! I hate it when people eat instant noodles or any kind of noodles constantly for a long time and don’t' try to make it healthy for themselves! Once in a while is ok but if you're eating it for a while like me, add some healthy stuff in it or something!

It doesn't have to be soup; just something really simple to eat that doesn't take a lot of chewing, maybe oatmeal or something.

Don't make it hard for yourself! I made smoothies for myself all week! ^-^

And as for my fruit of the day, which I couldn't eat because of my sore teeth, I just stick it in the blender and made like apple slush! YUM!

MAKE THINGS HEALTHY FOR YOUSELF! You definitely need the vitamins during these days the most. If you don't you'll get your body into even more trouble, and I doubt the pain to go with it will make it better.

Make sure to have some Tylenol with you for pain. And have your wax ready if you have cuts or anything; stick it on the tooth that's cutting it. If it works for you, maybe like 3 teeth near it just in case!

I'm pretty sure you'll be fine.

OH! By the way! Practice your smile in the mirror when you come home?! I couldn't really feel my mouth when it was done and didn't know how my smile was supposed to be so my mouth went crazy and it wasn't a normal looking smile.

Make sure to definitely brush your teeth after anything you eat! You'll definitely regret it later if you don't and it'll sure as hell avoid getting cuts often. I brush my teeth 6 times a day now or sometimes more.

Ha...that's it. Hopefully I didn't bore you to death reading this =] Hope you rate and good luck with your braces! My inbox is ready for you if you need any other help that I'll try to answer.

Well defining is like making things specific and clear so..

Like a simple, clear, question that people can easily know what you're asking (a question that really defines what you're asking).

I don't know any good diet pills but even if I did I'll still say that pills aren't the answer and you could save so much money on doing it the right way and just excercising.

Since you took them a long time ago and probably taking some now, i think you're skinney enough.

But you could freeze some of your favourite juice in a zipper bag or something about 3/4 of the bag or half and when it's frzen get a spoon to hit it and crush the frozen thing to some chucks and suck on those. Water chips as the person below me said really works too.

Try chewing gum to take it off your mind or get some of those small circle candy like Rockets and swallow them so it feels liek you're taking pills.

If you're trying to find it's site, sometimes some stores don't have one but Google would know if it'll say DO YOU MEAN__________.

After a two year hiatus I am back! I've been on this site since 2006 and things have changed far more greatly since my bright days in my younger years. I've battled with anxiety and depression and I've gotten through it. My life is merely a survival story itself and now I simply want to help others, being grateful for everything I have and simply because I CAN.

Hello you can call me Hitomi^-^
Being a nurse is my passion so feel free to ask me anything and I will try my best

I'll answer every question personally given to me, if you're serious about it.

I am of faith but will not preach in my answers unless the person who is asking for advice is very obvious of being of faith.

Sometimes it is not about getting through the obstacle, but to stay positive within it. Sometimes you are placed somewhere dark so that you can shine to others even brighter!
