im going to be a freshman next year. actually school starts in about two weeks but whatever. and im going to a new school and theres a ton of people at my school.
and in middle school i had 2 boyfriends and a lot of friends.
and next year im going to the high school my middle school feeds into so its not like im moving anywhere.
but im worried since im going to a huge school with so many people that im not gonna get a boyfriend or i might loose my friends right now.
am i worrying too much?

Be social. Do not change for guys. During your first year, having a boyfriend will be hard because you are still trying to get used to the curriculum.

Just be yourself.

ok i'm a girl and i was just wondering on like, if i buy guy shorts, what size would i neeD? let's just say women sizes 8, 10, 12, 14. about what sizes would those be in men's?

and shirts, specifically American Eagle guy's polo shirts, about what size would i need? i don't normally wear women's shirts like that. i wear a medium in t-shirts. so, help?

Shirts- probably a medium.

For pants I would say you are a 32- 36.

Try them on though

My face looks oily. I've always had dry skin or combination skin. My face is shiny and even after I wash it.

I don't want harsh products that would irritate my skin. I don't want any products that burn the skin, you know?

I also have small bumps on the side of my cheek. How do I go about treating this? It's a lot of small bumps so I don't want to irritate the skin and make it worse. They sort of popped up last month while I was on the pill :/

I've been putting benzoyl peroxide medication on the small bumps for the past week. it's done nothing but bring it to a slight white head.

any tips/tricks?

also, can i buy proactive without getting the whole monthly supply? [i already tried it and my mom doesn't want to pay for it every month] They do sell over a counter in the mall, right? If they do, how much for each bottle?

Neutrogena works well. It is not too expensive either.

You cant just buy the bottle. You have to get to 30-50 dollar kits.

i have a lot of muscle on my body - mainly legs and abs; my question is how to get them to look leaner. i heard yoga helps. any specific tapes anyone knows of or stores to buy them at? are there any videos that teach you how to hip-hop dance that are good for losing weight and toning up?

Yoga and Pilates. You can get everything you need at Target, for a cheap price.

Target also has dancing videos- all of them will help:]

What is the best way to go about recording music to put on a myspace? What should I use to record it? A laptop?

Plug a microphone into it. Then, make an account on myspace music.

Save the recording- but you need a program. Then, upload it:]

I've done lyrics searches for this one song I've heard, but can't identify. There's a harmonizing chorus in the background that goes "doot da doot doot doot doot". And it's about how someone's mom is a junkie, and if she could do everything all over again she wouldn't change it for the world. Alternative song, might be by Bad Religion although I honestly have no idea.

Thrash Unreal by Against Me!

I am pretty sure that is it?

how do i become a faster swimmer?
Ideas?
Im not the best swimmer, i really dont know how to swim.. i took swimming lessons for a while but kind of taught myself.
but i dont swim fast.
HELP. plzz

Practice makes perfect. If you keep practicing, your speed will increase. Time yourself, and try to beat it every time. I can almost guarantee you will start seeing results in 2 weeks or so.

Where can I get some cheap skinny jeans?
I'd love for them to be less than 30 dollars but that's kind of hard to find. I'm going back to school shopping soon and I like cheap stuff because I hate spending a lot of money on like one shirt. So please tell me some good stores with decent prices.

Wet Seal, Delias maybe, Target, Walmart, Macy's, K-mart, Steve and Barry's, Charlotte Russe!

Good luck!

well. recently i've been getting spam mail. is there an email address that i can forward the spam to so that it can be removed / blocked / whatever? like maybe a company that blocks spam?

i tried: uce@ftc.gov

but it didn't work...

thanks

What mail carrier do you have? When you open the messsage, there should be an option of blocking ,deleting, and replying or something.

Add more info please:]

So i got a pimple like last summer, and then it never went away. My aunt says she think it turned into a mole. It turned into a light shade of brown. It doesn't stand out or anything, but it just bothers me knowing it's there. But why did it do that? Occasionally, i get this piece of black hair coming out of it (ew), but i pluck it off. But i want the mole (or whatever it is) gone. Is there anyway a can do it? Is there something cheap I could buy at like a drugstore?

please & thank you :D

Watch out for oddly shaped moles. I would go to the doctors if it gets shaped weird.

Go to a skin doctor and have them look at it:]

I read an article in US Weekly about Hilary Duff's dieting techniques. A few years ago she did carry more weight as some of you might remember... but I never considered her "fat." But apparently others did and she did herself.

I weigh 130 pounds and am 5'1, while she was 130 pounds and 5'2 back then. It immediately made me sad... because lately I've been worrying if I am "fat" or "chubby." When I look in the mirror I see someone who certainly isn't rail thin, but not OBESE either. I honestly am not sure.

What are you guys' opinions? If you remember the "older" Hilary Duff during the Lizzie McGuire era, would you consider her fat? Please don't base your judgements on whether or not you are a fan of her, I just want to know what you think of her past appearance.

She carried her body weight well. I never considered her fat, but now she is really skinny, and I liked her figure before better.

You are nowhere near fat, so do not worry:]

i was looking at the iphone and really really want it.. but my whole family has verizon. is it true that the iphone is only with at&t? and if it is.. does that mean it would cost more for one family member to be in at&t while the rest of the family is in verizon? thanks for any help you can give =]

Yes- it is only At&T*.
I would give it 8 months to a year to come to another network. You would have to have everyone in your family switch over for a better price- but you can have it alone, but there will be 2 bills=[

is there any way to tell if someone is hacking your myspace? i don't mean like, changing your identity...but like they found out your password and they're reading ur messages and stuff without you knowing?

Not really.

The only thing you can do is change your password to prevent this.
