Tonight my guy friend is bringing his friends from another school to this community festival. They are really hot, and I'd like to get to know them. What things should I say or do to get their attention? Should I go with a casual look (jeans and a black cami) or should I wear short shorts with a tight top? (link)
I say the casual look.. If you wear short shorts & a tight top, it`s guarranteed that you will get their attention, but for the wrong reason. Jeans && a black cami is still attention-getting, and you can attract them with your body AND your personality. Let your real self shine through =)


i've just gotten a modeling audition for a prestigious program. I'm average looking with brown hair,brown eyes,and skin. I'm 13 and i'm 5'1. Should I do the program or should I turn it down? (link)
Yeah, go for it!
It could be a HUGE chance to succed in that area.. You sound pretty, and it`s always a good learning experience to try new things.
Good luck =)


I am going out with someone that is a year younger than me and no one has really said anything to me about it yet but i have a feeling they will...i cannot stand when people continuously say crap to me about it...is it really wrong that hes a year younger? (link)
No, I don`t think it`s a very big deal. Nobody has said anything yet, so it`s not a problem at the moment.. But if they do, don`t pay any attention. If you really like this boy, it shouldn`t matter what age he is, or what anyone else says to you. good luck =)


what food contains vitamin e? (link)
Avacadoes.. and that`s all I know, lol.


I'm currently on a swim team and eatin much healthier, but today my friend and I went to the pool and she only brought sodas to drink it was very hot so I broke my 3 week chain of no sodas. I feel terrible, I also ate a few cookies, how can I keep from eating the bad stuff when the oppurtunities right in front of me? .. Ill rate :] (link)
Next time you are going to the pool, bring a small cooler or bag full of water and healthy snacks. This way, when you get hungry or thirsty, you have healthy alternatives to junk food.

And don`t be so hard on yourself. It`s okay to have a few cookies once in a while ;)


I have really curly hair. I want to be a straightening iron around $100 since the last straightening iron I got (wet2set $30) leaves my hair looking really dried out & fried. Does anyone know of a flat iron around my price range that we'll leave my hair looking healthier than the cheap one? Thanks! (link)
Go to Sally's Beauty Supply, they have great straighteners for about $40-60. They work very well and leave your hair smooth and healthy looking. Hope I helped =)


16/f This summer I REALLY want to start eating healthier. I'm SO tired of fast food and soda. But I don't know what "healthy" is. You'd think a salad is healthy, even from fast food places and it turns out their salad has just as much calories as a big mac or w/e. So are there any snacks besides just plain fruits and vegetables. And something quick where I don't have to stand over a stove and cook. I only eat poultry, no beef, pork, etc. So maybe some vegetarian foods. What do vegetarians usually eat?
Thank you (link)
Look at the food guide pyramid.. It gives you good ideas of healthy things to eat. And don`t eat anything from fast food places, it`s all unhealthy no matter what.

I am a vegetarian, and there`s LOTS of quick, easy things you can make. Not to mention, they`re ten times healthier than meat, and you still get the protein and nutrients you need. Try Morningstar Farms Or Boca. It has vegetarian meat, such as chicken patties and bacon, all VERY healthy. They take about 2 minutes to heat up in the microwave (theyre frozen) and then theyre ready to eat


okay im 14 and i still havent gotten my perios is that something i should be worried about .... or just wait? (link)
Nope, it`s nothing to worry about. Many girls don`t get it until age 16-18! Be happy that you don`t have to worry about it. It will happen in good time.


i was wondering if VEET bladless shaving actually works?? and if so how long do your legs stay smooth? (link)
It does work, but some people have weird reactions. My friend used it, and she immediately got huge red bumps all over her legs. And you cant put it on cuts, it stings like ANYTHiNG. I think your legs stay smooth for about a week, but i`m not quite sure.

PS- IT SMELLS HORRiBLE!


Okay I sweat really bad under my arms.ALL the time. And I've tried every deoderant there is! Nothing helps.And it doesn't smell it's just sweat. Help? (link)
See your doctor, and most likely he can give you a prescription deodorant if you really have a problem. If it turns out that you have a major problem, there is surgery that you can get, but that`s a last resort thing.
Otherwise, it might be stress..?


ok i want to put highlights in my hair with the lemon juice.... could i just get a lemon and put juice on my fingers and streak that on my hair and lay in the sun? im confused!!! help!!!
ill rate
(link)
You can buy lemon juice in a bottle from the grocery store or something. Then you squirt some onto your hands or onto your hair, work it in, and be sure that you only put it where you want it to be. Then lay out in the sun. Usually, one time of doing this won`t make a big change, so try doing it a few days in a row or something and I think you will see a change.


I'm nervous about getting my first period. I'm really afrad that it will leak through and everyone will see. I'm jsut getting out of sixth grade and I'm supposed to be getting it soon. Will it leak through my pants?? (link)
Usually, you won`t bleed through your pants. To be prepared, have a pad/tampon in your locker or backpack to be ready when the time comes.. Also a sweatshirt in case you do bleed through. If you do, you can visit the nurse and she can call your parents to bring you some new clothes.
But don`t worry, usually your first time you don`t bleed too much.


Um i always get cold sores like always ill have on for about a week and a half and then the next day or two ill have another one and i dont know what to do there bothering me I CANT STAND THEM!! is there anything i can buy to help pervent them or something they hurt i just need them to go away!!!

I'll rate 5's thanks!!

Herpecin L

It`s a lip balm that`s made specifically to prevent cold sores, it has an SPF of 30, and it works really well.


I spend about 3 hours in the sun every day, and I want my skin to appear tanner, but it doesn't get that much darker each day. It's barely noticeable! How can I get my skin to tan faster? (link)
It could depend on how much sun you are getting.. Be sure to tan in the bright sun, and make sure you`re not near many shadows or anything. You could use tanning oil with low/no SPF protection, it always helps for me.
If tanning still doesn`t work for you, you could use self-tanner, it makes your skin much tanner.
and you could always visit a tanning bed, that will give you a tan guarrenteed.


how do you deal with rumors and gossip. i really don't care what ppl say i just have a hard time showing that i actually don't care, so how do i show people i really dont care? (link)
Ugh, I HATE gossip. Next time you hear that people are talking about you behind your back or anything, just IGN0RE it. they aren`t worth your time. If anyone mentions anything to you about it, say confidently, "I DON`T CARE." the message should come across lol.


theres this guy in my drama class who is really fat and is like 350 pounds and has a billion pimples all over his face that is not able to be cured. hes telling ppl that i'm his girlfriend and i'm not. plus he stalks me becasue he knows where my house is. today he went to my house and tried attacking me becuase i don't want to be with him. lately hes attacked 3 of my friends cuz hes really violent. one of them that hes had a crush on he stalked her by breaking into her house by breaking her window and bringing flowers and a boom box so he can sing to her. he tried kissing my other friend but then she refused and then he bruised her. he also ruined the birthday present that i spent alot of my time making for my best friend and so it got destroyed. he also started moving over on where i was sitting and tried to touch me and put his arm around me but then thank god before he was able to do that my friend susana yelled move outta my way!!! and i don't know what do becuse today i have to meet up with the drama group to finish a project and hes in my group and itz too late to kick him out of the group because the project is due tomorrow. and i'm just scared on what he'll do to me. hes nasty and doesn't even have a good personality. (link)
You need to tell your parents or another trusted adult about this. It`s really serious and he sounds dangerous.. Call the police and keep trying to get a restraining order on him. Talk to your drama teacher and maybe she could talk some sense into him. Don`t use violence because then you would be just as bad as him..


what are some good movies (playing right now) to watch on dates? i haven't seen much previews, someone tell about a movie?
(link)
Scary movies are good, because you get to hold each other. I think Dark Water, Land of the Dead, War of the Worlds, House of Wax.
Funny movies are good also.. The Longest Yard, Monster in Law.


ill be 15 in 2 weeks. but i really want to get some money. i know everyone will prolly say babysitting! .. and i consider that, but like how do i get people to babysit for?..you know like find people to babysit for? .. thats where im stuck. so can someone give me some suggesions? please!? (link)
If you want to babysit- you can ask your mom to tell her friends, put flyers around your neighborhood advertising your services, or talk to your neighbors with children.


My BF and I have been going out for a month. And we kiss and W/E outside of school, but past couple of days we have been doing little kisses after 4th. we both feel kinda uncomfortable cause all my friends go AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW really loudly n obviously when we do and its really annoying! i've told them to stop but they dont! have can i make them?! i rate ^^ (link)
Wow, I can definitly relate to this. That`s really immature, and you need to sit down with your friends and tell them how much this bothers you. Explain how it makes you feel and how frustrating it is that they don`t stop. If they still don`t stop, try just finding another place to go with your boyfriend - away from your other friends.


i was just wondering if anyone had any good ideas for a birthday party :-/ nothing to extrodinary,it's just with a couple of friends.
thanx for any ideas :-D (link)
You can go out to dinner at a fancy restaurant, and get all dressed up, always fun. You could go to Six Flags or another amusement park and ride the roller coasters or something. Or, you could always just go with the old-fashioned sleepover party lol. =)
