When getting braces do they hurt when they are putting them on or does it only hurt after they are done putting them on? Also would they pull any teeth or would they be able to fix anything teeth that is out of place depending on how far back it is? (link)
it hurts when they are done getting put on... and if they didn't tell you they were gonna pull teeth then they won't. don't worry, almost everyone gets 'em


Im going to an island over spring break adn the drinking age is lower so i want to try some drinks. I know you cant drink on certain medications, can you drink if you are on birth control (link)
yes you can


I'm looking for information about the Roxy theatre on Sunset Blvd. in West Hollywood, CA.

I've searched all over the internet, and these questions are probably only answerable by those who have been to the Roxy.

For concerts, is admission all ages?

Because of the bar upstairs, must you be 21 to get in?

Is there an interior lobby?

During concerts, do they sell refreshments? If so, where?

Any other information you can give me about the layout and such about the Roxy would be greatly appreciated.

I am looking for this information, in particular, for research on the Jonas Brothers Concert there on July 31, 2007.

(link)
if its jonas brothers i would say 90% chance its all ages. but it depends on the concert. if it helps, i went to a concert at the roxy in boston (a club.. idk if they are connected) and you didnt have to be 21 to get in, you just get hand stamped if you are so they can give you dirnks


15/F

Ok...so i just started tanning two days ago. I started out (since it was my first time) with 5 minutes. Yesterday, the lady moved it up to 6 minutes. Today, the lady moved it up to 8 minutes and I got a pretty bad burn on my back and sides. and under my breasts. Its driving me crazy and hurts and everything but I have another tanning appointment for tomorrow because i have to get my base tan. If i tell my mom that I got burned, I know she wont let me go back ever again because it took me a year to convince her to let me go in the first place. I dont know what to do because I spent over a hundred bucks all together on the tanning package and lotions and everything and I really want to get a tan but I know i cant go back
there tomorrow and hop in the tanning bed with this burn because obviously it will only get worse. Does anyone have any advice? (link)
usually you can space out packages so that you can take a few days off to heal your burn and not get screwed on price. but if you have to go just wear really really high spf suncreen and clothes (like maybe a sports bra?) where you got burned to protect those areas. you could just tell your mom that you are going tanning and not go? or just go in the room and not tan....


I have wanted a green iPod nano [second generation] since they first came out. The iPod I have now, it's approaching the end of its life and I really need a replacement.

Now, of course, they're discontinued. I'm having a hard time finding a green nano in any store, so I'm thinking of buying a used one off the Apple website, for $99, and getting a case for it.

What is the condition of a refurbished iPod? Are they the iPods kids used as hockey pucks or are they in pretty decent shape? I don't want one with scratches. Plus, I haven't checked at WalMart yet so I could still get lucky & find a new one. What should I do? (link)
okay welli never got a refurbished one btu i have talked about them with the apple store owners and my friend bought one. hers looked like new and you couldn't even tell it was used. and the apple store owners says they are less liekly to break than the new ones because the have to go through a ton of testing to get sold. so i would go for itt


I recently downloaded Limewire. Once I did, a new file popped up on my iTunes, under "Shared", that says "user's LimeWire Tunes". I have a few songs under that, but they don't come up in "Music", and I don't know how to import them because I don't know why I should, since they're right there on iTunes. How do I get them onto my iPod? (link)
when you are updating your ipod and the screen comes up that like shows a pic of your ipod and the memory left there should be tabs at the top of that screen. go to playlists and make sure that the limewire playlist is checked off.


what is a youth large and adult small? is there really a differnce? (link)
there are about the same (at abercrombie the exact same basically) but most youth larges are made with a shorter/wider cut than adult smalls.


Me and a few of my friends tried getting drunk last week but it didnt quite work out.
Me and my friend Kendra just couldnt drink the beer or else we felt kinda sick. Why cant we take it? And we are light weights for sure but how much would it take for us to get drunk?

My other friend that was with us had a totally different problem she was drinking alot she just wasnt getting drunk at all. I didnt understand why she wasnt getting drunk either. (link)
you were probably feeling sick because it was your first time drinking and all so you were getting used to it... you just have to like keep trying and maybe try new thingsss like liquor/wine coolers. likee um smirnoff ice/tea/mikes hard/parrot bay are good. and i don't know your weight and stuff so i'm not sure how much it would take you to get drunk, but probably like 3-5 shots it being your frist time and all..... and your other friend- if she waited a long time between drinks but still rank alot she probably wouldnt feel drunk. you kinda have to drink like 3-5 shots innn about 2 hours to get drunk your first time assume your average body size. if you're really skinny it would take less. buttt yeah liquor gets you drunker quicker lol


i'm a 14/f entering 10th grade.
i play a sport every semester, which means i'm busy everyday after school till around 6. even later on game nights.
i really need a job though.
i hate asking my parents for money.
i would like to earn it by getting a job.
i would be really busy during the week especially cuz i'll be getting home late.
i could work during the day on saturday and sunday.
besides babysitting, what job can i find that will give me a weekly pay? (link)
well you could see what jobs offer only working on the weekends, like maybe a waitress or something at a small restaurant / grocery bagger / working at just some small local business.. you could also referee kid's sports games (soccer usually) and you get paid for that. if you want a summer job, i would take a lifeguarding course sometime this year since you are so athletic, and you will get paid alot. another good job just for the summer is a waitress at a yajht (sp) club or country club because they people who go their are typically weathly and will tip well.


I recently got this calculator and I'm wondering if you can play games on it. How can you get there? (link)
you can play games on it... you go to apps and then scroll down to this thing that says puzzpack. or you can download them online, you just google downloadable games for *your model of calculator*. also, you can get them from a friend who already has games on their graphing calculator (it can be any texas instruments graphign calc model) using the connection cord. good luckkk


What does Hugh Heffner's children think of his relationship with his 3 girlfriends? And are they ever on the show "The Girls Next Door"?


Thanks so much! (link)
i actually saw them on that show like last night or two nights ago. they think its like okay to have 3 girlfriends and they want to like continue the playboy business but keep it classy. thats exactly want the older one (he's about 16ish?) said.


painkillers are like drugs i guess. well i was just sitting here and thinking do they stay in your system like other drugs? and if so for how long?

ps.. im not taking them i was just sitting here thinking about that lol (link)
they stay in your system as an advil or something would, they numb the pain four like 3-6 hours. you only feel like sleepy on them, like you don't get high or anything lol... i had to ake them after i had surgery so thats how i know.


I keep reading everywhere that Chi straighteners are the best ones out there, but I know that there are so many different models of the straigtener. Which model do you use or which one works the best?! Pictures would be more than excellent.

Price does not matter what-so-ever. thanks! (link)
if you have thick hair then get one with thicker panels and if you have thin hair get a thinner one.. also, they make one that can curl your hair too soo if you're into that then i would go for it cause its like a two in one deal :).


ok so i am a smoker... but i dont do drugs (including joints) and last year i was persuaded into trying a joint (no harm done. not my thing.) the problem is now this friend of mine (a cousin of a good friend) thinks i am a regular since i told her and her cousin and another friend about it. i don't like that image of me and i'd hate it if people think i smoke up. she always posts messages on facebook saying how she is really craving "you know what we want". obviously people know what that is. i tried it once and i told my parents they were ok with it cause they know i was just being curious but i don't want people to think i am regular. since i am on vacation, she always sends messages saying when you get back we should hang out and you should come over and you can stay at my place so you don't end up like the first time (hysteric and paranoid) ..... i really don't want to do it let alone to be associated with it. what should i do!?!?!

how do i get it across with out loosing her friendship and making her think i am "closed minded" because i am not i just didn't like it!

help asap!!!

and how do i make her stop talking like that to me..... (link)
just tell her you're not into it. and say it in a facebook wall post saying so so other people can see the wall to wall.... or just be like " i dont know what you're talking about..." i doubt she'll think you're close minded because you did try it before.

I'm trying to figure out if Ozzfest concerts are similar to Jimmy Buffett concerts at the Tweeter Center.

Will the concert goers be able to party, B-B-Q, drink, etc. in the parking lot before the show ? (link)
i would say probably yes... all the concerts i've been to there the parking lot is open.


Okay.. now I don't fake bake or anything weird like that, but i like to lay out in my pool to get some color every so often. but when I do this, I always get the nice, golden brown tanned skin that i want- except on my chest. i never get tan in the area under my chin, and above my boobs and stuff.. it's so weird! i usually put alot of tanning lotion on that area so maybe it'll attract the sun more, but nope! it just doesn't work. any ideas? THANKS!! :) (link)
if you stand in the pool with the water at a depth like right below your boobs the water will reflect the suns rays to that area. baby oil helps too because its shiny and magnify's the suns rays to get you tanner faster.


My bff parties sometimes. She is a very good student, so are the people she parties with. Sometimes she has these "parties" at her house with just maybe no more than 15 people, all good friends. She is eighteen.

I am sixteen, and although I've never been to any of her parties, I want to try it. I've never been drunk in my life. If I do go to a party, it will be a very safe environment. I am planning on getting a little drunk, but I am not going to drive (I will sleep over at her house), I will not try drugs (and no drugs will be present, none of her friends do them).

Should I do it? I am a very uptight person, so I think it will be nice for me to just let loose and have fun. I am not planning it to become a habit (partying), but I definitely want to try it.

What do you think? I will be one hundred percent safe there.

How do people act when they're drunk? How many beers does it take to get drunk? I am not planning to get drunk drunk, but just a little bit drunk. (link)
i would go for it... i mean your only a teenager once.. and you're not gonna be an idiot about it. wait at least 20 minutes between drinks so you know how its gonna effect you and don't have over 6 beers/shots total. when people are drunk, they act like their normal selves only a little bit more relaxed and they might say things that they normally wouldn't... like something on their mind that they just normally would think twice about. they also might be a little stumbly when they walk, and a lot of times they'll just kinda go to sleep/pass out because alcohol makes you tiredd. yeah so just be careful and have fun!
