Hi, everyone! My name is Narae and I have a question. Starting a few weeks ago, I've been going to be around 3 or 4 in the morning and waking up aruond 12 or so, and I hate it! Lately, I've been feeling tired all the time now! But I get like, 12 hours of sleep! I don't understand! School's starting in like, a week and I was wondering what would be a good way to get back to the way I was before I became nocturnal and how do I stop being so sleepy all the time!? Thank you!
I had this problem for a long time. I fixed it by setting a bed time for myself. Even if you aren't tired, got to bed at ten. That means no music, no phone, no texting, no tv. Nothing. Just darkness and quiet and bed. You'll be surprised how easily you fall asleep when there are NO distractions. I know, it's boring. It was hard for me to stop watching TV in bed. But it helped ALOT. Then... Set an alarm to wake you up in the morning at a reasonable time. After a week or two of FORCING better sleep habits on your body, you will get used to them.
Well i wanted to take guitar lessons, and i was wondering what type of guitar would be the easiest to learn?
Or which kind wouldn't be so hard on my fingers, because ive heard that they can make your fingers sore.
Well, an acoustic is better to learn on, but the strings are harder on the acoustic guitars. However, either way it is hard on your fingers. Thats part of the instrument. If you want to paly there is no way to get around it. Tough it out, after a little while your fingers toughen up and you can't feel it anymore.
whenever i open my phone... not all the time but most of the time the screen turns white!
i cannot send it into Motorola because the sticker is pink. I didn't get it wet! My friend gave me this phone because my other one was kinda suckish-the 2nd virson of the chocolate-and it was already pink but she claims she never got it wet.
Whats the problem here and what is the solution?
Somehow it MUST have gotten wet. That is the only way that the sticker would turn pink. It is possible for a sticker to turn pink from bringing the phone in the bathroom with you while taking a hot shower. The water vapors alone can change the color. Sorry, but once the sticker turns pink the warranty is void, no matter what.
Ok,
So hi its sayah again,
uhm, so i am not pregnant
but i kinda want a baby now.
I am sad and disapointed
evern though im only 14
but still, i was thinking
and should i try and prego again ?
Absolutely. Your too young to be having sex at all. Let alone getting pregnant. At 14 years old, it may see FUN to have a baby, but you have NO way of supporting a child. Did you know the average cost of a baby for the first 5 years is $50,000. At 14 years old, you can't afford that. Plus, your body is not ready to support a baby yet during those 9 months. And at 14 it would be hard to stay in school while pregnant. Also people will talk about you behind your back just because of it. Think about it... Wait until your ready...
Hi. I am a sixteen year old female from the midwest area of the U.S.A. For about a year now, I have liked this guy that is the same age as me. He knows that I like him, and he has told me that he likes me the same way quite a while ago. At his birthday after everyone had left except for me and another friend of ours, we were watching a movie, and by the end of it we were sitting next to each other and holding hands, though we are not dating.
Just today, he told me that he wanted to talk about where our relationship is going and that he is not ready for anything else yet and just wants to be friends. I was happy, though bummed, and I wasn't sure about dating either. I was very happy that he was mature about the situation. About two years ago, I had dated and made a " mistake" with my partner at the time, and ever since I have not dated, so I have felt the same way too. Now, I am afraid that he said those words because his feelings have changed. If they have, I will learn to deal with it and move on, but I really want to know because I have very strong feelings for him. Should I ask him, and if so, how?
Thank you for your help.
Sure, ask him. The best way is always to just say it. Up front. Just ask him how he's feeling, just let him know, you'll be fine with whatever he says, you just need to know so you can stop thinking about it. He'll tell you.
Good luck
well im 18 female. and i had unprotected sex a month ago with my bf and a week later i ended up with a sore throat the was hurting soo bad that i finally went to the doctor for them to look at it.. the doctor thought it was strept throat butt they took a swab of it and it wasnt strept troat. it was either mono or gonoreaha. but they culdnt tell me for sure. so they gave me a shot and 4 pills to take and so after 4 days it went a away.. but a couple of days later i started to get my period but it was 4 days late.. and i took a pregnany test it came out clearly negative.. but after that i started feeling nausas and sick and i got heartburn and i had loss of appeitie cause i couldnt eat and i lost weight.. i went to the doctor and got tested for hiv an stds. they all came back negative. but after that i still felt symptoms of pregnacy..im feeling more tired then usual and my body kinda aches and i just dont wanna move at all. and my head hurts so bad sometimes. so since it has been a month now and i feeling all theses symptoms. could i be pregnant? cause im not getting any better
If you had your period AFTER the sex then I don't believe it is possible you are pregnant.
I have been dating a guy for two years almost. I have a nine year old son and Im a working professional. My goals are high and I also attend online college to finish my paralegal degree. My boyfriend lived with his parents until two years ago and has worked several jobs since we met. Why am I with this guy?? He is great with my son and has a big heart. I've always been looking for the loving man that will sit at home with me on Friday nights and I have met him. We never have the money to go out or on vacation. I do not have a ring yet?? He works jobs to get by. We still live in a apartment and I drive a new car and his is lucky to still be running. I'm 28 and I have never been materialistic, but I would like to have more??? I'm confused, please help.
A lot of people have this same problem. You should tell your boyfriend you need more. Hopefully he will try harder to get a steady job and help pay the rent, but in the end you have to ask yourself if he is worth it.

Alright, well i like this guy and i am pretty sure he likes me still because we "talked" a week over the summer and stuff but then he had to work so we quit. Well, everybody says he likes me but he has SO MANY girls that are just his friends and i will see him hugging them everyday and massaging their shoulders and everything but he dosen't do that to me. I am really shy and we only have one class together. I mean he teases me sometime but i don't know if he is flirting or not. He mainly just talks to me friends but he says hi and stuff. What do i do and how do i find out?
Because he DOESN'T hug you and massage your shoulders and such it means he probably DOES like you. When a guy is just friends with someone they are more comfortable to do things like that. When they like someone, they are more careful...
i need some dance songs. my friends and i are in a dance class we need a dance song. upbeat and fun to listen and dance too. the moves we can make up! thanks!

I have Verizon and when I try and send a ringtone to my phone from myxertones, it sends me a link and tells me to use my browser to download it. I dont want to pay to go on the browser, so are there any other websites that you can get ringtones for free?
There are plenty of them, but they all use the browser, so No, the only way to get free ringtones is through a browser since there is no other physical way for them to get the tone to your phone. You might need to buy a data plan for your phone. Sorry.
I'm 23 years old. I have a full time job, I get paid once a month, roughly $1300. I still live at home so I have no 'bills' except for my cell phone and a car payment, that is about $300 together. That leaves me with about $1000.
I want to try and move out either by the end of this year or early next year. But, I cannot save money for the life of me, and I really have nothing to show for why I don't have money. But by the end of the month I'm lucky if I have $5.
Can you give me some ideas on how to start saving my money? I really could use it!
Thanks!
:)
The best thing to do is to make a budget and stick to it. If you put 300 towards bills, take 300 aside for food. Instead of eating out, stay in sometimes and make something. You have to sacrifice to save money. Put 100 or 200 towards entertainment. Don't go out every night, and when you do, spend less. Be careful on what you throw money away on. Figure out what else you NEED money for and stay within the limits you set for those categories. Try to keep it so that every month you have a couple hundred left to put away. You'll be saving up in no time.
what's the song "white houses" by vanessa carlton about?? sorry this is really random
It's just a song about a bunch of friends who live together I believe, I couldn't really get much more from it myself at least...
I got a Dell Inspiron 1525 for graduation. I love it. I just want some advice for keeping it as kick-butt as it is.
I want to optimize storage space, even though it came with extra memory (the OS hard drive says it totals 285 GB). I do have Limewire, but I have McAfee SecurityCenter to protect my computer, and so far it's worked great. One thing I don't like is that it doesn't run as fast as I thought it would. Granted, my wireless internet isn't the fastest in the world, and it's still pretty fast, but even so, I feel like it isn't as fast as my friends computers.
Any advice is appreciated. (:
Well, part of the problem is the fact that it's a laptop. They tend to wear down easier then desktops, no matter what you do. But to help it, but some programs like Registry Mechanic, and run them often. They will keep you running smoother. Also, another important fact is that every few months you should open up your laptop and clean off the dust from the fan. This helps it to not overheat. Just be careful to not mess any of the other wires off while doing this. And one more thing, don't leave your laptop plugged into the charger cord much longer than it needs to be for a full charge. This will DESTROY the battery life.
Hope that helped.
im 14 years old and i've noticed that on the side of my hips i have stretchmarks...i think. i don't know where all of a sudden they came from but ive noticed them at around the beginning of summe time. is this from lack of activness? im about 5'2'' and i weigh about 105. im a pretty active and i do watch what i eat. could these be stretchmarks or something else?
They could be scratches, they could be just about anything. I wouldn't worry too much, at 105 you shouldn't be getting stretchmarks. Try going to a dermatologist. They will be able to tell you what they are.
i dated my ex for a year and a half. he was my first love & my everything. now we're still really good friends, but closer than most would be i guess because we have that history. on saturday his 3 month old nephew died. they didnt know how, and today the results came back and said heart complications and SIDS. he's taking it really hard, and im doing everything i can to be there for him, but i dont know what to say? he was always there for me & now i feel like im not doing a good job at being there for him. i've told him im always here for him if he needs me, that im sorry, and that he's in a better place & now God's got him and he's watching over them all. but it just feels like it's not enough. what can i do? he's really crushed.
It's tough sometimes to find the right words to say. Just pray that God comforts him THROUGH you. Because alone, it's hard to help a situation like that. Ask God for the words to say to help him through this time. Pray with him if he's comfortable with it. Encourage him to read the Bible. Grieving is a normal process and it takes time no matter who tries to help out. He will eventually get closer to normal, it may take a while though. I will be praying for him.
so im pretty skinny, not a twig but my stomach is flat for the most part. i see tons of people taking pictures in their bathing suits and the pictured come out fine, but when i do, i look fat, well not fat but like it looks like all loose skin which i dont have. idk if it has something to do with my chest, im a 34c and im 4'11" so it doesnt really fit on me haha but is there anything i can do to make my stomach look better?! its like the camera does add 10 pounds.
any tips?
Most people suck in their stomachs while taking pictures. No one looks like people do in pictures, because they do things to make themselves look better and take 1,000,000 tries till they get a good picture. In a picture you only have to look good for a split second, not like the real world.

so.. my mom and i. not the happy campers. me and her always argue. she has done a tremendous amount of emotional damage to me. my father does nothing due to the fact that he is scared of my mother and would rather agree than pick a fight.. 17 years.. and she has over protected me.. which isnt really a good thing.. she has turned into a control freak who will yell and scream and complain till he has broken an eardrum.. this woman hits.. she says things i dont think children are supposed to hear from their mothers.. you'd think she is a stepmother. basically my home life is not where i want to be. ill be graduating hs june 2009, and i have been planning to move in with my bf after hs. only problem is my mother. i'd probably lose her and my father for the rest of my life.. what do you guys think? become independent although not an easy trip once high school is over? or put up with her and eventually get thrown out , yelled at, and hit because i do not meet her standards? what are my options? what can i do? i know moving in with him isnt the best idea. but it seems the best so far. someone give me a little guidance?
thanks =/

If you really feel that way about your Mother then you should get out of that house. Moving in with your boyfriend is DEFINETLY not an option though... Nothing good can come of that and you will end up with no where to go when you two break up, and your parents might not take you back. Staying home would be better than that decision. See if any friends are looking to share rent? Try going away to college and staying in the dorms. Good luck. I hope everything works out well for you.
i have a friend in another town, and i really cherished her as a friend because she didn't know anyone from my school and i could always say whatever i wanted and not have to worry about her biased opinion.
however, for the last few months, one of my good guyfriends (who used to have a crush on me) got really close with her and would often ask her for advice regarding his situation with me. even after he stopped liking me, he continued talking to her very, very frequently.
i am not jealous that he talks to her so much, but it really bothers me how close they are. my guyfriend often says things like, "oh yeah ______ is doing this" and i'll think, i don't remember her telling me that. why is she not telling ME?!
i have tried talking to my female friend about it, and she admitted that she felt awkward about the whole situation (there was a time period that he got a girlfriend and i stopped talking to him cause i thought he didn't want to be my friend anymore, and even through that, my friend and my guyfriend continued to stay close), but she won't stop being so close.
i hate controlling her friends; that is not my intention. i just wish she wasn't so close with him because it's very awkward for me, especially, since i really cherished her as a friend BECAUSE of the fact that she was not friends with him.
i don't want to be a bitch about it. and how am i supposed to go about solving this situation? it would come off as, "stop talking to him." i know that is, initially, what i want, but i don't want to do that to her because she does like him as a friend.
do you think i should try talking to her again or just try to forget about the whole situation? do you understand my dilemma? any suggestions?
i really really really like both as friends, just. not together. i know that some people might say "well it's better than having them both hate each other!" but i'd actually prefer that.
I know it may suck for you, but you are being very self centered right now. Sometimes you have to make sacrifices for other people. If they are friends, it may be awkward for you, but it's not fair of you to split them up, even though you may want to. Sorry...
Response to your comment:
You are a very self-centered person. I'm giving you advice. I'm not here to tell you what you want to here. Is this what you want:
Well, since your feelings are important and theirs aren't you should tell them they can't be friends.
Is that better? You little bratty princess. I hope they both ditch you and become best friends and leave you all alone.
where do i go so i can be an extra in a movie or show?
what o they need?
ddo any of you have any experience?
It's very hard to get into a movie unless you are in hollywood or new york city because thats where all the movies are filmed.
There's a guy that I've had my eye on. He's a drum major in my band...
Problem is, I've only "kinda sorta" known him for the past 2 years, and I haven't started liking him til now. I want him to notice because I think we might have a chance at something, but I don't know how to go about it without making it obvious. So far I say hi to him like every day when I see him- but he's always so busy since he's drum major and all. So we've never actually had a true conversation, just little bits and pieces of one. How do I get him to notice me?? He gets a lot of attention being in the position he is, so how can I make myself stand out without looking desparate? :)
Guys love confidence. The best thing you can do is just straight up ask HIM out. It will make you seem confident, NOT desperate, and worst thing that could happen he says no. It won't kill anyone. The best thing to do is ALWAYS be straight up. Be confident and just let him know what your thinking.
