about

Hey! First off, i'm going to start by saying I came here on this site to give people advice. Some people actually don't know the real meaning of advice. They think its the answers they want to hear. But i'm not here for that. I'll give you advice, and it might be something you don't want to hear. But deal with it! You may take my advice or not, its completely up to you and you are not gaurnteed a correct solution.

Ok so now that's clear, I'll talk to you more about myself. Hence the username... I play volleyball. It is my passion and basically my life since I've played for about 7 years. Most of my friends say i'm 50/50 tomboy and girly girl. I LOVE sports!! I play volleyball all year round, and then I go to the park during free times to play some soccer, football, hockey, basketball or baseball with my friends. But then again, I could be inside trying on my new Sephora makeup i'd just gotten, or reading the latest Seventeen magazine or even arranging my clothes for school tomorrow.

You can ask me just about anything and i'll be happy to answer it. You can count on a full and detailed answer.

Oh and another thing... I love getting feedback! Even if its a negative comment. It tells me what I need to work on or even what I did correct.

advice


Can you offer me any advice????
Hi i am 17 years old and really need your advice. You see about 5 years ago now, my Grandmother of whom I was very close to died. she was like a
mother to me and i used to see her almost every day. however I just don't know how to
move on. I still really miss her. it's just i just don't know what to do anymore.
We had made so many plans of do together and i had made so many dreams of things i'd
do in the future(with her by my side). but now she's dead i just don't know what to do.
Should I carry on with these dreams/plans/ambitions i'd made when she was alive and had
planned to do together, .......or should i give up on them now she's dead and find some new
dreams instead.Do you t hink it would be insulting to her memory to just carry on with
these dreams.......only now without her? so you think she'd be offended?
What should I do? i just don't know what the right thing to do is.

Also i don't understand where she's gone. i missed years out of my Secondary education
so haven't really been taught about religion and therefore don't really understand it. What
can i do about this? also, she was cremated. what does christianity/the bible say about
cremation? do cremated people still get to heaven?

Also I missed practiacaly all of my secondary educationn... therefore I also missed Religious Education? I don't understand/get where my Grandma went? Do you know how i can learn about Religion now? Do they run R.E GCSE classes at college?Also this might seem an obvious question (but just needed to check) but do they give a good all-round general education in R.E in school(sorry if this seems a stupid question)?? so if I had gone to school would I now understand where she might be? I feel terriible...because i don't get where she is. what does the Bible
/Christianity say Heaven is like by the way????
Also..............do you know how I can say goodbye to her now..i wasn't allowed to go to her funeral so never got to say goodbye. She was cremated...so there is no grave. By the way what happens to the ashes?? do they bury them in one place or sprinkle them around ...IF SO THEN where DO THEY SPRINKLE THEM AT THE CREMATORIUM???????? (which i wouldn't like to have happened) i hate not knowing. I also feel like I need to say out loud goodbye..such as where she was buried/cremated? How can I do this? wouldn't people at the crematorium stare? dO YOU HAVE ANY IDEAS AS TO HOW i CAN SAY GOODBYE??I am new to this site. is this advice free by the way..if not them please don't reply as I cannot afford to pay.I live in England.
please could you reply. I AM FROM ENGLAND

hey, I'M REALLY SORRY ABOUT WHAT HAPPENDED!!! To tell you the truth, i really dont know what to tell for the religon/bible/secondary education, BUT i really dont know what to tell you for the religon/bible/secondary education/cremation things, BUT i can tell you that you shouldnt give up on those dreams you and her planned, because if you gave up on THEM, that means you gave up on HER. she would've been sooo proud of you, for not giving up on these dreams. The way you can say good bye is in your spirit. Just close your eyes, make a prayer and just talk to her in your mind. shes there!!! I believe that cremating somebody, will still make that person go to heaven. Your grandma is a beautiful angel know, she is watching over you. she's there! just talk to her and she'll talk back. You just have to believe! I saw in a movie "elizabeth town" that the man had somebody that died cremated and he put the ashes in a jar, then sprinkled the ashes all over the world ((africa, europe, etc...)) I'm really not sure if you could do that, but maybe you can! As for the Reliougus/bible/secondary education, try talking to a very close person, such as a family member or a best friend. Talk to them, and ask them about this stuff. They'll help you!

I hope I helped! and i'm very sorry!!!

i need advice about eyeliner..every time i put sum on it smears at the end of the day or during..how do you keep it from smearing..also it didnt use to do that..help

take your eyeliner and rub it through your hands for a while to get it warmed up. If it doesnt get warm just run it through a lighter for a few seconds. when the eyeliner is warm, it glides on easily and doesnt smear.

I hope I helped!

ok so i'm in a long distance relationship and he has not seen a pic of me but i wanted to wait cause i am a little overweight how can i loose some weight fast??? cause i really like him but i dont really think i'm pretty at all is it normal to feel this way is it just self conciousness?? how can i feel better about it??? please help me
what do i do??

take a picture of you right now, then send it to him. If he doesnt like your picture, he's obviously the wrong guy for you. HOWEVER if you really really want to lose some weight, then do about 20 push-ups and 30 sit-ups a day. lift some weights. go to the gym and play some basketball or something. Run around the block, play soccer out on the front yard.

I hope I helped!

Lately I have been studying 3-6 hours a day. After about an hour I start getting that weird feeling like I can't stand to sit still anymore, a cramp in my wrist, and my neck hurts. So I get up, stretch, take a short break and go back to work. Like half an hour later I'll start getting all ancy all over again. What are some good tips to help me study longer without easily getting wrist cramps, neck pains and ancy feelings? Thanks.

i'm not sure if this would work, but try to make a game out of studying. so like if you say "if i get this question right, i have to do 5 jumping jacks." or like everytime you learn something new, twist your wrists 5 times around. something along those lines

I hope I helped!

I am an athelete and am physically exhausted most of the time after practice. I told my mom this and she says I need more protein so I should eat more meat. However, I'm not a big meat eater. Does anyone have any ideas for easy ways to get more protein into my diet? Like a supplement or something? Thanks.

you could go to a store and get protien shakes. or make them at home

Ok well school is about to start and of course there are gonna be cheerleading tryouts. I`m perfect for cheerleading but there is a little problem. I don`t know how to do cartwheels at all! I know I`m not gonna pass the tryouts unless I know how to do some moves with cartwheels in them.

Well, what I`m asking is does anyone know any tricks to help me keep my balance and help me do a cartwheel. A site with some techniques will be great. Thanks

http://cheerleading.about.com/od/gymnasticsandtumbling/l/bl_cartwheel.htm

http://www.wikihow.com/Do-a-Cartwheel

http://www.pocanticohills.org/taverna/98/ln.htm

I found some sites that show how to do a cartwheel ((the first one has an animated picture that helps alot!))
its really not that hard. you dont even know your upside-down for a split second.
First you might want to practice on a foam spongy type of floor. then start on carpet, then grass, then once you've mastered you can do cartwheels on the road.

I hope I helped!

I know this question might come up a lot but I can't find answers that can help me out so I'm sorry.

Anyways, this Saturday I'm having a surpise party for my friend John. I'm having about 20 people over and I have no idea what to do!? We're in highschool so we porobablly wouldn't want to play board games and such. I don't have a pool or trampoline.

Any ideas.. fun things. My friends can get bored easily and it's only going to be for at least 3 hours.

Thank you so much for any help.

well use your imagination. If you have a ball, play soccer or volleyball or basketball. You can play yard games such as kick-the-can, Spud, 3-step, or ghost in the graveyard. Have relay races, or play hide-and-seek outside.

Last week, I dusted off Mean Girls and decided to watch it again since it had been a while. You know the plastic who has brown hair? I think her name is Gretchen. Well, anyway, I loved how her hair was done for their dance at the end of the movie. It was kind of half up and curly. I was wondering if somebody could find me a picture of Gretchen at the dance so I could show my hair stylist. Either that or find me a picture of a similar hairstyle. Thanks sooo much =)

I couldnt find that picture on the internet, so what i did was play the movie and ffw to the end, then I took a picture with my digital camera of that hairstyle. heres the link to it-
http://img88.imageshack.us/img88/694/s5001022jc8.jpg

it probably wont be exactly clear, maybe a little bit fuzzy or blurry

Have you ever tried trilling or rolling your tongue when you are doing the rr in Spanish?
A lot of people are able too, but not I.
In easy steps, can you tell me? I know it's a hard question, but I really need to learn this year because I'm taking Spanish 1 and I wanna learn for the future!

-PLEASE....any help can helP

okay, heres how i do it. I put my tongue on the roof of my mouth. Dont let it stick there, pull it off gently so your tongue is hovering under the roof of your mouth. Now take deeeep breath in and breath out deeply. It should be able to trill and do that rr sound. If that doesnt work, curl your tounge more inside your mouth. Now try. sorry i cant explain it any better than that

I hope I helped!

I really like this girl but am to afrain to ask her out or talk to her from fear of rejection. I really like her and want a relationship but i dunno what to do. Any advice?

well first try to get her to notice you. Smile at her or fix your hair in front of her. She'll get the picture that you like her. Dont just stare at her, she'll think she has something stuck in her teeth or you're staring at somebody else. Dont ask her out until you are actually friends with her. You can start talking with her about something simple. For example, in school ask her what the homework was. Just start a small conversation with her. Compliment her. You will see if she likes you by the way she reacts. If she rolls her eyes and gives a big sigh, that probably will mean she doesnt like you and you should back off. but if she kinda giggles and looks down, thats a different thing.

I hope I helped and all goes well!

14/f. i really want to buy a tredmill so that i can exercise everyday without leaving the house and while watching TV. but there are some problems.

1) my parents don't want to buy one becuase they are expenisive.

2) and i definitaly don't have the money to pay for one all by myself.

what can i do? i really want one so that i can stay in shape during school. i can't go running outside, so i really need this tredmill. what can i do?!?!

thanks so much for any help that you can give me

have a garage sale and buy one. if not, ask your best friend or a relative to buy one for you. then promise them you'll pay them back. If not, do what the other advicenator said, look for one in the newspaper or in a garage sale.

I hope I helped!

okay see theres this band called " straightlight run", i don't know if you people have heard of them or not. you probably have. but i want to listen to them but i can't find a website that has them. any suggestions ? i already checked myspace, and yahoo.. nothing.

well i searched on real player and itunes, but came up with nothing, if nobody can find it, do you know a song that they played? try searching one of the songs they play. maybe you could try limewire and see if they have it.

i rolled my left ankle and it sort of hurts. I can walk on it, but it hurts when i turn my ankle in. I'm positive i didn't break anything or fracture it because it just feels a little sore. So i was wondering if anyone had any advice on how to make it heal pretty quickly because cross country starts soon and i don't want it to bother me. thanks =]

follow the R.I.C.E rules. Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation. dont walk on it! try to stay off of it for a while. then slowly start to turn your ankle around, if it hurts, stop immediatly. do that a couple of times a day and pretty soon it should be healed.

I hope I helped!

my best friend is throwing a halloween party, where guests should come in costume, and has elected myself and my other best friend the co-hosts. we've decided that we all want to have matching costumes, just the three of us, since we are the hosts. i know it's early to be planning a halloween costume since halloween is nearly 2 months away, but we want to make sure we have an idea of what costumes we want before they are all gone.

so my question is, what are some cute, reasonabally priced costumes, or ideas, for 3 people? thanks mucho!!

ooh, how about oopma loompas??? ((from charlie and the chocolate factory)) or 3 blind mice, 3 muskateers, 3 amigoes, or how about the 3 triplets.. haha. just use your imagination!
