So right now I have medium hair length, a little wavy. And side bangs. But I want my bangs to change. I was thinking the short ones that come up to my eyebrows and they go straight across, not side swept. But the problem is, I play a sport and I don't want my bangs to get in the way. So how do I go about putting them up. And my face is oval so do you think straight across bangs with medium shoulder length hair looks good? (link)
Bangs straight across your face actually looks very mod and high fashion, and your facial structure does work well for this particular style. If your bangs are above your eyebrows you wont really need to put them back because they won't be in your eyes, but bobby pins work well for bangs as do clips. You might also be able to use a fabric style headband or prewrap to keep them off your face.


does anyone know any great acoustic songs like
if it means a lot to you by a day to remember
or
remember sunday by all time low?

also
does anyone know an acoustic song about a guy toying with a girl?

thanks so much. (link)
Some great acoustic songs are "miserable at best" and "three cheers for five years" by mayday parade, any songs by secondhand serenade, and songs by ron pope. I think you will like all of these. As for songs about a boy toying with a girl, I can't really think of any that say exactly that but you might like "almost lover" by a fine frenzy. Hope this helped :)

I would also recommend ron pope, esp "you're the reason i come home," and chase coy


16/f
boyfriend is 18
& i neeeeeeed ideas on some things to get him for valentines day, cause im cluelesss!
any fun/cute ideas?
thankkkkkkkk you (link)
There are actually a lot of things you can do for a guy on Valentine's day, however you have to consider how sentimental he is so you don't pick a gift that is too sweet or sappy. If you want to buy him something you could get a dvd or video game, a shirt from his favorite store, or some Valentine's day themed boxers. If you are willing to make things, you could bake him his favorite type of cookie and cut them into hearts shapes, make brownies, or his favorite type of cake. You could make a coupon book with little things you will do for him like cooking him a meal of his choice, washing his car, treating him to a movie of his choice, or naughtier things if you wish. You could also accompany your gift with a nice poem or letter. If you have a lot of pictures of the two of you, you could put together a photo album or scrapbook. hope some of these helped :)


So, I've never really had a boyfriend before so I'm not very good at this whole gift giving thing. Our one month and valentine's day are both coming up and i have no idea what to get him. I was thinking of making him something but at the same time I kind of want to buy him something. I'm sure that he would like anything that I give him, but I want it to be something creative. Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks :) (link)
If you want to make something you could burn him a cd of his favorite songs or songs that remind him of you. You could bake him his favorite type of cookie and cut them into heart shapes, or cook him dinner or bake him a cake. You could make a coupon book with little things you will do for him, and they don't have to be sexual. You could make one for a movie of his choice in the theater that you will pay for, one for a back massage, or one for a home cooked meal of his choice. Or, you could make ones for more naughty things if you like. If you want to buy him something you could buy a video game or dvd, some nice boxers, or a shirt from his favorite store. You could always write him a nice letter or poem to accompany these things as well. Hope this helped :)


when i do the "suga mama" thing on virgin mobile it claims you get more airtime minutes but i've already done 10 videos meaning i should get 10 minutes to my account, but for some reason they don't get added? what am i doing wrong? how can i fix this? & only answer if you know, and i dont feel like calling virgin mobile about this. (link)
Techincally it should be added to your account. Sometimes it's not ten minutes of airtime, instead it's ten cents each time you watch an ad. So if your minutes cost you twenty five cents each you have to watch three videos to get one minute. This may be what's happening and why it doesn't seem like your money is getting added. Other than that if it isn't working it is probably a technical problem and you will have to contact virgin mobile. Also just a helpful tip if you don't already know, if you're checking your balance on your phone more than five times a day to see if your airtime is added, virginmobile starts deducting money to check it.


Iam a 19 year old female and iam 5'2 and I weigh 160 pounds and I want to get down to at least 130 pounds. How can I lose 30 pounds in a healthy way? (link)
The only healthy way to lose weight is to eat right and exercise. Cutting out junk foods such as soda and desserts form your diet takes a lot of willpower but doing so really cuts down on fats you are putting into your body. It also makes you healthier. Also try to avoid foods high in carbohydrates, such as breads and pasta. Drink as much water as possible. Not only is it healthy and a good alternative to soda and juice, it has no sugar, no calories, and can help you lose weight. Instead of eating three meals a day, try eating five smaller meals. As long as you keep them fairly small this will help to speed up your metabolism. As for exercise, the most important thing is trying to do something every day. It doesn't have to be anything big. Something as simple as walking your dog, going roller skating, or taking the steps instead of the elevator can really help. There are some workout tapes that are designed to give you results fast. I personally use and recommend any of the beachbody videos, esp. turbo jam and hip hop abs. The turbo jam workout program can burn up to 1,000 calories in an hour and hip hop abs is a fun way to get a six pack while feeling like you're dancing. However, these tapes can be fairly expensive and if you aren't looking to spend money, any cardio exercise will do the trick just as well, they just might take more time to show results. If you really dislike exercising try finding things to do that will not only help you get fit but that will also provide fun like going to the pool or dancing. A great way to have more fun working out is to invite friends. If you do all these things you should be losing weight in no time but you have to stay dedicated or they won't work. Good luck.


Ok, i am 16 and from michigan.

so i weigh about 135 and i am 5'4, and basically im sorta skinny, except i hate how "thick" my thighs are. I know i shouldn't, but sometimes it gets to me.

Anyways, i was wondering what kind of outfits would look good on me. I don't wear a lot of skirts or anything.

I have really long reddish brown hair (its either wavy or straight and goes about 5 inches above my butt) and hazel eyes, athletic body. i have freckles that seem to almost disappear in winter. i don't like wearing makeup and also, i have some acne (not real bad).

Any help would be grately appreciated. thanks =]
P.S. sorry it looks so long. (link)
Since you hate how thick your thighs are, I'm going to give you some tips in that area. Skinny leg jeans aren't for you. No matter how much you like them, they cling to the thickest part of your leg and tend to attract attention to that area. The best type of jean to get is one that has a tapered leg. This means that the jeans fit fairly snug around your thigh, and are then straight down to your foot. Darker wash jeans slim legs, and a line down the middle of the leg gives the appearance of longer legs which also have a slimming effect. When and if you are looking to purchase a dress, you can wear something that is form fitting at the top, but you want a dress that is a-line and will flow away from your body. Obviously dresses that are skintight are not good for your body type, and layers add bulk to your thighs instead of concealing. The same concept goes for skirts, you want something that starts small at your waist and gets wider to the bottom. Hope some of these tips work for you! =)


he called me by my friend's name 3 times yesterday at school. He had been flirting with my friend before this, a lot. both of them had. He is thinks leona lewis is fine and hott, and he told my friend, infront of my face, that she looked like leona lewis. It was the most uncomfortable thing ever because he is obsessed with leona. We don't hang out accept school because he can't hang with girls until he's 16. I'm so sick of him. Are these reasons good enough to dump him? (link)
Yes I think these are good enough reasons. First, it's hard to have a relationship when you can only see each other in school. This doesn't leave a lot of one on one time with the person to get to know them. Second, it sounds like he likes your friend more than he should. It's not okay to for him to call you some other girls name, and certainly not more than once. Flirting with other girls, especially your friend, is not a good sign and it's not who you deserve to be treated. If you are sick of him you shouldn't stay in the relationship and I think you have plenty enough reason to dump him.


a friend of mine has this song on her play list that i think is really cute...but can't find it. it's about myspace. it says something like "i don't care how long it takes/ i save a place on my top 8 for you" anyone know??? (link)
"Myspace Girl" by the Afters

i was wondering what everyone was looking forward to for the twilight movie coming out on the 21st. what are your ideas. did you like the commercials? (link)
Originally I was looking forward to seeing who played each role and how the movie was set up in terms of scenery and such, but now that I have seen the previews I think I'm most looking forward to how closely the movie follows the story line. I like the movie trailers a lot as well.


I heard this song at american eagle today and of course forgot to look at the screen to see the name. But all I know it that the video had a bunch of black children singing and the lyrics went somewhere along the lines of "no ones gonna get shot today"... or something like that, and it was about like living in a rough neighborhood or something. (link)
THe song you're thinking of might be "It Was a Good Day" by Ice Cube but it's a little older so I'm not quite sure. Hope it's the right one.


ever since the new facebook came, none of my bumperstickers have been showing up except for one =( its depressing lol how can i get them back? (link)
You are still getting all of them, they are under the tab on your profile that says boxes. Sometimes they will show up on our wall when you add them but they are all under the box tab on your profile. Hope you find them =)


Im 13 years old and ive been working out for about 2 months now and i was just wonderin when you on ur period does it help you lose more weight since you work out and lose blood?

thanks.
(link)
absolutely not. you don't lose that much blood on your period, and certainly not enough to count as weight loss. even if you were losing weight it would be under a pound and wouldn't make a difference with your body appearance. also, even if it did count, which it doesn't in any way, it would be like water weight. you would lose it very quickly but it would come back. so no.


My teeth are pretty white, but I want them STARK white before school starts (August 28th).

So does anybody know a good product (preferably whitening STRIPS, not gel), that works really well and within a couple weeks?

If it's more than $30, then I don't want it! lol thanks (link)
I use Crest Whitestrips and I think they work really well. You can buy the 5 minute a day whitening strips which gradually whiten over about two months, however I think they cost more than $30. I would suggest the one week whitening strips. You have to wear the strips for 30 minutes two times a day, and there is a visible difference within about three days. The one week strips cost about $30. Crest might also have a two week whitening kit, which is the same as the one week, just a longer period of time, but I'm not sure how much they cost.


hi, if you have ever seen those sunglasses they look plastic but its like there are strips across the lenses
i'm seeing a lot of people wearing them, does anyone know where i can get them
i'm sure they aren't expensive or brand named or anything like that (link)
These are the "Kanye West" glasses that he wears for some of his performances, but a slightly cheaper version. They are fairly cheap, I got mine for ten dollars. However, I haven't seen them sold anywhere besides pagodas in the mall or novelty type stores. Look in places like that and you might be able to find some, they're more abundant in some states than others.


any fellow columnists love themselves some Pink Floyd? care to school me? lol (link)
I absolutely love Pink Floyd and own all of their vintage records. I can help you with just about anything you need to know, including albums, songs, history etc, or you can try googling Pink Floyd to get info. If you have specific questions you would like answered, let me know, I can definitely answer them =)


I'm really getting into Reggae
But I only know a few like by Bob Marley and Sumblime if they can be counted as reggae

Im just looking for music like their style
mayeb evem like Jack Johnson, Sittin, Waiting, Wishing, and Jason Myraz- I'm Yours

So what Im asking is does anyone have suggestions for this kind of style? I need a new Chillen/Jammin playlist :) thanks! (link)
Bob Marley DEFINITELY counts as reggae, he's one of the most famous artists in that music genre. Sublime also counts to an extent. You could try other members of Bob Marley's family, like Ziggy Marley and Damien Marley. Peter Tosh is a really good reggae artist, his best song in my opinion is "Legalize It." Another good band is Pepper, they sound a lot like Sublime. A Perfect Circle sings "Bad Boys," (the theme song from Cops), and their style is slightly reggae. These are just a few, if you want some more let me know.


So i'm always giving advice hehe this is my first question... (i'm bored and want to see whats it like) but i really want to know..
Does anyone have tips on how to make your face look smoother or with less acne (anything like that)
and also is it true that pink shade blushes actually make you look with less acne or something like that???
It's just I have a date tonight with my boyfriend and I'd love to know any useful tips you could give me about this in general..
thanx :D (link)
Well the most obvious way is to to keep it clean in the first place, using a treatment such as Proactiv works really well, but as you don't have time for that now, here are some other tips. Cover up always helps, a cream foundation goes a long way in covering up blemishes, but make sure you don't use too much or it will be obvious you are wearing it and it will look caked on. A powder over the foundation also helps a lot. The cream foundation helps not only becauser it covers up redness of acne but it also smooths out your face, and the powder helps finish the look off and give your face a natural look. I'm a big fan of Covergirl foundation and powder, however, their products are a bit expensive so don't buy them unless you are going to use them often. As for the question of blush, they do help cover up acne I think, but only breakouts that are on your cheeks. I think the pink kind of blends in with the acne and makes it look more like the color is blush and supposed to be there. Hope this helped =)


what is that song they play on the commercial for the pineapple express movie? (link)
"Paper Planes" by M.I.A.


Ok so I usually have my period start sometime around the 22nd to the 25th at the end of every month. So this last month I had it REALLY late and it started the 8th of July. I started taking birht control on the 13th and it is now the 24th and its really weird because I'm bleeding... Am I having my usual period or is it just spotting from the pills? It's very light and it has been goin on for a few hours now. If it is spotting how long does spotting last? Any help would be great! Thanks! (link)
Most likely you are having spotting because of the pill, however, taking the pill also causes extra periods. This is most likely fine and not a problem, but if it continues I would consult a doctor. This normally happens if you miss a pill or two or aren't taking them around the same time, so make sure you're taking the pill every day at the same time or as close to the same time as possible.

Spotting varies from person to person in amount of time it lasts. If you aren't missing pills and it's still happening it probably won't be too long, maybe a couple months at most. I know that by the second year you aren't supposed to have periods or you get really short ones.
