I want to get Windows XP and i was just wondering where i can get it? how much is the average cost? and is there anyone i can get it online? (link)
Dell! You can either buy a whole new computer (300$ plus) or you can buy the program, but i'm not excactly sure how to program it into a computer. the program is like 40 bucks.


my friend needs a costume and fast, she was going to be a slut but now she realized she doesnt have all the stuff she needed and cant go out shopping b4 tonight she has to be something she can make jus from the stuff in her closet. plz help! (link)
(if your from the boston area, or if your a sox fan) take a sheet, put a new york yankee sign on it and put on a poster board *will curse for food*. It will be hilarious.

ok, if not, then just cut two wholes in the sheet and be a ghost. You could wrap her in tolliette paper too. maybe she has an old costume she could wear, or she could go as a ganster or something. mayeb she could go as a guy or something.


I haven't heard from my boyfriend at all since friday. He hasn't called or texted or anything. I've texted him but he hasn't texted back and I called him yesterday but he didn't pick up. I know that he's gone away for the weekend but he would always have his phone on him. I'm getting worried. (link)
chill darling. maybe his phone died. no offense or anything but being an overprotective significant other is definately a turn off. You don't need to worry about him. He's probably fine and forgot his phone, or maybe where he went he doesn't have reception.

yeah, those questions suck.


Situation: I'm involved in a long distance relationship.. Neither of us can drive right now.. and my parents wont let me date yet. His mom doesnt have her license right now (not sure why) so we dont have rides to see each other. My older sister doesnt approve of me dating him.. so she wont take me to see him.. and i barely know anyone that lives in his town.

Can anyone think of a way we can make this relationship last.. we're deeply in love.. but its hard not being together...

we've asked friends for rides.. and they wont take us.. Could someone please tell me how we can be together.. and it not be so hard on the both of us?

Thanks!

(link)
well, how long distance? like is it too far for the two of you to walk and meet some where?

if it is, try and attened the same social events, like for example if theres a charity event going on, maybe you could convice him to go, and have your parentles drive you there.

If not, call every day. IM often. email. cell phones! everything you can think of!


13 - female

I started my period about 9 months ago and I know that it takes about a year or 2 to get into an exact cycle..but how do you know when you're gonna have your period..because I don't wanna have a leak at school or something and not know about it until I get home! Please help! (link)
well if your that worried about it, always wear a light pad.

i know i'm getting mine because i get bitchy.

its all personal. after awhile you'll figure it out.


My brother got in some mess with some people.They are the type that do drugs have gone through lost of shyt in life.Well my brother did something and they took it very personal and came down to our house and began yelling at the door.but we have a gate so he couldnt come in but he was real ruff he also came with his older brother; i guess thay wanted to fight.Well the younger one which is 17 busted out with im gonna kill you or something like that and that boy is known to have a dangerous background.im really scared i dont know what to do.im very confused my brother tells me not to worry but how am i not suppose to.plz help me!ive thought about calling the police but i dont think i can go through with it until that boy took some serious actions. (link)
if your scared you should talk to some one about this situation, like a teacher or an adult you trust. I assume your parentle units already know about this . . .

Theres not much you could really do for your brother. if they come back to your house making threatening remarks, call the cops. you have every right to call the police if you think you might be in danger. i'm not sure what they would do about this, but i'm pretty sure they'll help you. DOn't call 911. look up your local police station. They can help you.


okay.... i am trying to loose weight. when i wake up in the morning i never wanna eat. even if im hungry i just dont feel like eating. is this bad? i'll rate you. (link)
nah, i don't eat breakfast either.

just make sure that this habit doesn't spread into lunch and dinner and multiple days with out eating.


is this bad?? OK i was playing basketball today because we had a game and i got pushed down and landed on my hand and got it pulled back and now it wurts to move it i cna but not in one drection!

is this bad? (link)
umm, yeah thats bad. if you ever can't move in a way you USUALLY can move, then you have a problem. you shoud probably get in your car and get going to the emergency room.

but if you can type, it can't be that bad . . . .


Okay, I know that there have been many questions on the subject, but I looked, and I haven't found any other question/answers that were helpful. Okay, well here goes. I've gotten so addicted to cutting, that lately I've been doing it in class. I even cut my initials into my skin. Well today I got caught, and I was telling a friend about it, and my 4th period teacher heard. Well after the test in that class, she called me into the hall because we were allowed to do anything, and I got out a needle, and when that teacher saw she called me out. Then she was all like you know what you do is dangerous and stuff, and I was like yes... and she said other stuff like I care about you, and want you to stop, and I was like yeah, whatever. Well, now I really want to stop, but I can't it's like I'm addicted. I want to end my life, yet I want to live. And so now, I don't know how to stop. And I would bring it up to one or both of the teachers that know, but I wouldn't know how to bring it up, and I'm afraid that they would tell my parents, and my parents wouldn't sympathize, they would get really mad, trust me I know. So I was wondering, how might I get over this addiction, and if I were to tell the teacher that I need help, then how would I bring it up. What would you do to get help, and if you were to ask a teacher for help, what would you say. And if you were a cutter, but no longer cut, I'd like to hear your stories, no matter how long! Thanks a bunch!
Sorry it's so long, but I'm really worried about how far I might take this. (link)
alright, i'm going to try to organize this as best i can, but most of the time my ideas get all jumbled up so bear with me.

about the teacher: ok, just approach the one you trust the most and say, "alright, well since you already know about my problem (if she/he is uncertain, show them your arm), can you help me get over this with out telling my parents? I just don't think they understand, and i really want to stop, but i don't think i can do it with out your help." Your teacher(s) will be more than happy to help you. They care about you and they want you to get better.

You could even talk to your friend about it. the more you talk about this problem, the easier it gets to deal with. i wasn't a cutter, but i had my addictions and talking about it made it virtually go away.

I understand about your situation with your parentle units. if you weren't so young, i'd say that you could do this without them. however, i think that if your as addicted as you say, you might not be very sucessful with out clinical help. Yeah, i know how much that sucks to hear, but i honestly believe thats the best thing that could happen to you.

About your painfull cut: It might be infected dear. You should really see your doctor. i don't think they can tell your parents about it. I think thats your own private business that your doctor can't release, but i could be wrong.

The only thing that sterilizes stuff is burning it, or in a special kind of solution.

If you need my help so more, or want to talk to someone who won't judge you, i'm here. My sn is Tucanfullofholes and my email is redsoxrockmyworld@yahoo.com. drop one in my inbox if you need to. I want to help you as much as possible.


Hey everybody!
I asked this question before and I really got some good answers, and some had me thinkin. So i am going to be more specific.

I am a 14yr old boy who likes girls (typical). But just over the summer i knew i was bi. right now in october i still like other
boys and i have a crush on one too! however i still like girls as in
emotionally and socially, but i like boys for all 3 emotional, social, and sexually. i would still go with a girl, but i prefer a boy because it's something diffrent. i think i know i'm gay but i still need to know if i should just be completly gay and forget girls!?! (link)
who says you can't have the best of both worlds?

you don't need to sign yourself over or anything. just do what ever makes you happy.


i feel bad for my friend people are giving her a hard time and calling her poor even though she isnt even near poor. so i try cheering her up but it isnt working anymore i dont know wut to do someone if yuo have any ideas pleas tell mah (link)
tell her and anyone thats saying it that she isn't poor. she knows she's not poor and thats all that matters. she doesn't need to put up with that crap.

thats also like harasment and stuff. you can go to a school concillor because thats illegal (in Massachusetts anyway). She can't be treated differently by anyone because of something she can't help, especially if its not true.


Before you get your first period do you aloways feel angry and stuff and do you always get cramps? Thanks! (link)
usually (well its different for every one, but for me anyway) i know i'm getting my period ANY TIME because i get angry easier and more frequently.


There's a play in my school. Im interested in trying out for the main part, Winifred. Except i dont look anything like her. I can sing her solo song, shy, as good as the broadway performer, but 4 auditions we have to sing the star spangled banner. I've been practicing SHY for a long time and i'm not good at the star spangled banner! I dont no how to make my talent show singing that song, plz give me advice. (link)
first off, it doesn't really matter if you look like her. they'll make you look like her if your good enough.

just keep practicing the star spangled banner and maybe ask your director if you could sing Shy for her as well.


Okay, a long time ago i promised my friend i would be an old time gal w/ her for halloween. now i dont no if i still want to b that. I have 3 choices picked out 4 me. Should i be...
1.) an old time gal (fancey gown, gloves, hats,ect.)
2.) Buffy the Vampire Slayer
3.) Carly Patterson a gold medalist olympic gymnast (2004)

i'll rate u
(link)
1. is the best one. sorry it really is, unless the one you illiminated is.

not to mention, you've got to just do what you want most. like if you dress up as something you don't want to be, you're going to regret being it.


Do you ever feel like breaking down.. DO you ever feel out out place.. ANd somehow you just don't fit in and no one understands me... I've been kiked... hurt.. well I'm just like him.. and the rest of the song.. and sometimes i just wanna curl up and give up! the kids at my school are so mean to me. And a lot of my friends think they're to "cool" to hang out with me. I've been pushed down and kids kicked me and I've been in 5 fights with a bunch of kids and always get beet up picked on. And i don't belong.. I think i should just run away. no one would miss me. I'm just a loser in the way! I just wish i was a little cooler and people would be nicer to me. like the other day i was over my "friends" house and him and his neighbors made fun of me and 1 kid punched me so i fell and then they threw things at me. I've broken down.. ok and I'm young and hopeless and going no where fast is what they say.And the girls... forget about it... i mean the only reason most them don't like me is becuse the cool kids don't like me. I mean I'm not ugly..but you get my point. And some kids just pretend to be friends with me and then stab me in the beack like it's a game. And my gf just played me. Well you kinda get my idea of my life. that's not the details though. It's a lot worse. Well is there anything i can do? Or should i run away becuase no one would miss me!


Signed,
A loser!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

umm first off, can i just say welcome to being a teenager????

everyone feels like this at some point in time. like honestly, thats my favorite song because i feel like its about me. i honestly do. i feel like that song fits my life so perfectly. no one understands you or anyone else for that matter because no one understands them. see, everyone loves that song so much because everyone feels like it applies to them as much as it applies to the next guy.

Everyone feels like they just want to run away. i know i do. some times i just want to curl up and die.

but there are just things in life that are too good to die. for me its a person and baseball. as stupid as it sounds, its true. theres one person, and the boston Red Sox. what i'd do with out them, i have no idea. Find your thing to hold onto, and you will grow up out of this wanting to be dead thing.






umm, i'm not putting you down, i'm just telling you that its perfectly normal how you feel.


hey .. i wrote a few days ago about my boyfriend that's in the hospital .. hes in intensive care for his head injury .. well, this is the update .. the doctors recently had to cut open his head and take a part of his brain out so that they can run tests and all or sumthin lyk that..(i still quite dont understand it) .. and then they will put it back in and all that ..and hes still in the drug induced coma.. but now that this has happened, all those people that said he'll be okay .... do you still feel that way?? (link)
i don't think you have the proceedure right hunni. i think what they did instead was run tests on his brain from a prob probably running through his scull (as gross as that sounds).

I really really doubt that they can take part of his brain out of his head. thats kind of science fiction.

but if your right, the doctors know what they're doing. you have really no other choice but to leave your faith in their hands.

my best wishes. keep me updated at redsoxrockmyworld@yahoo.com

you're in my thoughts, and if your religious (i'm not) prayers.


I am going to a whole bunch of places this year and i need to save a lot of money but i'm really bad at saving money because i always go shopping with my friends and stuff. What should i do?? I'll rate. (link)
non checking bank acconts (aka, savings accounts) are absolutely the way to go. put most of your money in there, and you'll actually make a small (like cents) amount of money off of it.

once intrest rates go up, and you have over 2,000 dollars, you can put your money in a cd, and it will earn even more interest. the problem with cds are that you can't touch it, meaning you can't donate or withdraw any money for a set amount of time (the longer the higher the interest rate).

get a job??? lol


I have a pretty hard life, it's not easy in this town. I always have alot on my mind, but since last year I've been counting on beer to clear my mind...I wanted to know why a little alcohol makes me think about nothing...even when I'm not drunk? (link)
well because it destroys your mind. sorry that sounds harsh, but alas, alchole is harsh. it seriously kills your brain cells. theres honestly no other explanation for it.

it may also be caused by the addiction. like you know when you drink a coffee and for a while afterward, you are really really hyper. well its kinda like that.

the best thing to do is find some other way to clear your mind. a lot of people say jogging and yoga are good ways to achieve that. i personally prefer writing.


I very much want to protest the current presidential administration and encourage people to vote for John Kerry, but I live in a military town and everyone living here thinks being opposed to war means you don't support the troops. I LOVE our men and women who are fighting, that's why I want them brought home to safety! Do you have any ideas about how I can get my message out without offending or inviting attack from all the military folk out here? (link)
make a sign that says

I (heart) our troops,
Thats why i want them home.

people will understand that you want kerry, and that you love your troops.
