Hey, I am Cj from Belize. Some may also call me Christopher. Others call me crazy.

You probably never heard of my country before but that is alright. Check for it on a map, it is right under mexico. And please don't direspect my country. Many of my ancestors have fought to make the country independent. ANd so did my grandparents and my father. And when I am old enough, I shall give back to my country its rightful due.

I will answer your questions according to what I think, not what you want to hear or what others are saying. I think for myself. And If you don't or can't think for yourself....
stop wasting your time in life.

And if you hate my advice, please explain why so that I can improve on it. Don't tell me that I am stupid and that you hate me, because I don't care what you think of me.

im not trying to be ruid or disrespectful but dont you think that instead of answering the question to the boy who ask how you know when you get high. im ny opinio since this is an advice page you should advice im not to smoke abnd tell him the cause of why smoking is not good and what it does to you?

dont you think? (link)
Truth is, There aren't so many FACTS out there about marijuana. And sadly enough, I have friends who do smoke Marijuana, and you would never susprect them of it, they are some of the top students in the school. There is a group that does smoke it and I think just recently dropped out. But that is because they used to smoke it almost everyday (usually accompanied with other drugs.)

What you are trying to tell me so true. But I do not believe that getting advice to completely stop smoking from a complete stranger would be effective. So I can't stop it, but at least I made sure it was slow. I did not exactly tell him to go ahead either in a sense.

And here is another point to consider, it is illegal. But thats not stopping him. So I doubt other stuff will slow him down either. I talk what I know for sure, so he listens to it. It is not the best advice in the world, but I am sure at the end of the day, his life will not be lost due to my advice.



I need a song about a girl that is dating a guy but loves another guy.. I already got Dilemma by nelly feat kelly..I would perfer a rock song or something..

I also need a song about a girl who loves this guy but he won't take her back but still loves her..

tahnks in advance! (link)
Well, there is "stacy's mom - fountains of wayne"
thats about a guy who digs this girl, but digs her mom even more.

In an indirect way "guarded - Disturbed" could be seen to fit. just more broadly.

maybe
Don't stay - Linkin Park

The Suffering - Coheed and Cambria

None match exactly but............

dude, i totally forgot about this one.

SCOTTY DOESN"T KNOW - LUSTRA


How bad is weed for you?
I smoke like.. maybe once every 2 months.. sometimes from a pipe.. and sometimes from a can.. how bad is this for you? I dont even think I get high when I do it though.. How do you know when youre high? (link)
Once every two months is cool. It should not cause you any problems. Just make sure you are not too old, cause that seems to have greater effects then.
There also different levels of high. The most common one is just a weird feeling, and you start to laugh alot. That is the most common reaction to weed. it is not a hallucinogen, so it should not make you hallucinate, if you do start to hallucinate, then your smoking too much. And thats not good.
And here is something you probably never tought of. When is the last time you heard that someone died, or ended up in the hospital, from an overdose of weed? (NEVER)


OK.. so i heard that having diarrhea means that something is realllly wrong with your digestive system.. is this true?.. because i havent had a normal poop for a while... ive had diarrhea for weeks...

HELP!
(link)
Not neccessarily (sp?), It could also mean you are not eating correctly. If you are eating too much food or too much meat, the same thing can happen to you. Try a change in diet, probably with more fiber, and it should stop in a day or two. Then everything back to normal.


i have to run over the summer to get fit for field hockey (out coach said to) and i haven't done anything. i'm too lazy, but it's also been raining here and i have a little cold and i don't have a tredmil. what should i do? (link)
When it is raining, I still go running. It feels good actually.
And for motivation, listen to some music. or compare yourself to someone who is determined.
And for that cold, take some pills.


which is better an Ipod or an Mp3 player and y? (link)
an ipod is an mp3 player, the word ipos is just the name of the brand.

They are both cool, but you will probably find other mp3 players cheaper. and money is what matters to most of us.


I want guys opions on this what are the best bathing suits and summer outfits to wear in the avage summer day or a date? (link)
Two pieces definately beat a one piece. And stuff that look too stringy are not cool either. Nothing with too much design.


this is most likely the wrong category but whatever i was just wondering can you be gay if you dont want to. (link)
No you can't. Being Gay is a choice, no matter what Oprah says. There is no way you can be gay if you don't want to be.


What are some good exercises to do to lose the fat in your thighs and make your waist size go down? All good answers get 5's! (link)
Run. Jog about 30 minutes a day or more. You willl lose the wieght and fat in no time. It will be tough. but you can do it!


i recently learned that one of my very close friends is bisexual. She didnt tell me, i just kinda found out through the grapevine. Well, I'm fully supportive of her and everything, but I just dont know how to deal with it. How do i tell her I know? I dont want things to be different between us, because we're really good friends. Help please.
Sincerely,
Confused (link)
its gossip. and according to a local saying,
"if da no so, da naily soh"
In other words, if it is not like that, it is nearly like that. SO it is not too far from the truth.

Just tell her you know that she is one when you too are alone together. Or ask her if it is true. And tell her that you don't care. And to make the atmosphere more suitable, start the conversation as one of those revealing ones, and make sure you cry out some secret that might be a dark secret, or you don't care if the whole world knows. then after that, ask her. if all is well, she will spill everything to you. It is a play on trust if you catch my drift.

Yeah, thats my advice.


im going away soon for vacation and i never been on a plane before this will be my first time. i dont know what to expect here are some questions i would like to get answered

should i be scared
alot of people say to chew gum should i?
willl i get sick?
what should i do to keep busy?
(link)
be scared of what?
chewing gum prevents you from feeling dizzy.
If you get motion sickness, you will get sick. (or might)
Anything to keep busy. sleep. mp3 player. talk to someone. a book. imagine like a day at school where no teacher shows up and you are sttuck for 3 hours with a sub.


My b-day is July 1st and I REALLLY want to have a party like extremly badly but my house is really small and I want to invite about 25 girls. Its a little late to have a pool party and I just don't know what I could do for a party. I'm going to be 15 and I've only had like 2 b-day parties ever and I have a list of 25 girls already but I just don't know what to do. Any ideas are great WILL RATE (link)
I have no idea how girl parties like that go.
But when us guys have a party, this is what we do.
order some pizzas, buy a lot of sprite, shuffle two deck of cards together, and play cards and talk rubbish.

Or at co-ed parties, we just eat and get into small groups and talk to people. tell jokes and stories.

Your party does not have to be all that grand and extravagant. Just a get-to-gether will do. Put on a bit of music. order some food. Gossip, and do each others nail or whatever.

I know this advice sucks, but rate away!


I want to go to a summer camp the summer of '07 more than anything! The only problem is that my parents won't let me go. How can I convince my parent so to let me go to summer camp? I've even offered to pay for it myself!

Thanks,
Gwena (link)
ok,

Ask them with a serious face, "why do you not want me to go to summer camp?", if you ask them in a mature manner, you will get an honest response. And don't argue back your point immediately either. Just accept everything they say.

Then just work on the reason that they do not want you to go, work on it silently, and don't draw any attention to yourself.

If you like, after you find out the reason, you can re-ask the question to us. include all the other info. that you will uncover or are directly relevant to this scenario. from there, we can give you further advice on what to do.

But the important thing is to remain calm, and act mature.

got it?


First question is: Aren't oppinions the same as advice? Is an opinion just an indirect way of giving advice?

Second question:
I am considering a career in law as a defense attorney. My Xgirlfriend (XGF) said that defense attorneys cannot ethically do their job in the event that their client is in fact guilty if they know that their client is guilty.

She then said that it is incorrect for me, as a personal trainer, to give unsolicited advice to someone who is performing an exercise improperly(assuming that I know the correct exercise).

My XGF says that advice should only be given when asked for.

But she seems to think that a proactive approach is the only ethical solution to an obvious injustice.

My XGF thinks that the attorney example is somehow different from the exercise example. Is she right?

I feel like she has to be wrong since it is not possible to be proactive and wait for a solicitation for advice.

(link)
An opinion is what you have to say about something, and it does not a fact. It is a conclusion drawn from non-scientific data.

Advice is a hint that you give people to make thier life better. advice is usually given based upon ones opinions.

Why would you not correct someone who is doing an exercise improperly? Go ahead and correct them, by doing so you are helping them. Totally ethical and stuff.

And yes you can be an attorney and be ethical if you know your client is guilty. It is just a matter of "how" you present your case.

you should give advice to who-ever needs it.

Dude, thier is a reason you dumped that chic. (its obvious) Move on with your life and erase that R*** she put into your head.


I hate my dad..I'm not joking. I honestly do and not just for some stupid reason.
My dad always is threatening my mom with a divorce and stuff she starts crying. I hate seeing her cry when she never even did anything to deserve this. He always is calling her horrible names and cussing at her and me. He hits her sometimes too..she almost called the police. He even hit me once..
I'm so scared of him and so is my mom and my brother. I haven't talked to any of them yet about this. Whenever I hear him yelling or something I'm usually in my room and I start crying because it really is starting to upset me. I can't even TALK to my own dad..whenever he says something to me all the horrible things that he has done to my mom and I in the past just flash back in my mind and I can't speak and I have tears in my eyes. Everytime I hear him screaming at my mom I just want to go down there and tell him to calm down and leave her alone but, I just can't..I'm too scared. I don't know what to do anymore. I can't talk to anyone in my family about this.
How do I help my mom and get my dad to stop yelling all the time? (link)
Dude, pray.
thats what I would do.
And if you are a dude, and not a dudette.......
I would listen to some METAL, get psycho, then stick that fool in the neck or somewhere like that.


Or you could try to scare your pops by pretending to be all satanic and stuff, and threaten to send some-one to watch under him.
then laugh in his face.

But I reccomend prayer and church. GOD LIVES.

okay well this summer i decided im going to try and lose weight. so i decided if i eat right and jump on the trameline everyday i will lose some weight. (im babysitting this summer so ill be playing with little kids and obvisously be doing other exercises like running around with them and other things) my question is about how much weight do you think i could lose by september?

*please answer my question and ill rate 5's for at least trying and being honest too.

thanks! any other advice about losing weight is welcome too! (link)
The key word here is "could"

It is possible to lose up to ten pounds in 1 week. But not for more than 1 week. And you will probably gain back a bit quite quickly.

If it is June right now, and your goal is not until September, I would say about 10 to 20 pounds. But it depends on your original weight, how healthy your new diet is, and how much exercise you actually do. While jumping on the trampolin does tire you and make you sweat a lot, not much work is being done. Jogging will help much more.


My "friend" and I were wondering (well, he thinks he knows, but I don't believe him)...

I know a 13f who just had her 5th kid. She wants to keep breast feeding to keep from getting pregnant again. Is this a crock of shit, or does she know something I don't?


Is it valid birth control to prolong lactation? (link)
It should work. but not for more than a few months. And that requires the milk being released from the breast about three or more times a day for an extended period of time.


what's a good acne product that you can get at department stores? i've tired proactiv and i'm allergic to benzoyl peroxide, so i can't use it. I have to use sylaic (spellling?) acid. I want something that would give me proactiv results though. I have mild acne and combination skin. i have a lot of blackheads around and on my nose, and I don't really get pimples except when i get my period sometimes. 13/f (link)
try usind dove soap.
Clean your face with alcohol.
Try using Cold water.
one of those has to work.
or re-accutane
If not, get some prescrepition antibiotics, those always work. (gotten at a dermatologist)


So im 15/f and i so far have never took any chances! Ive never even kisseda boy for crying out loud becuase i am scared. I think my parentals made me this way. Anyways All my friends ONCE in awhile get together and drink. Now i dont want any rude comments but would it be all that bad to try it once? I am sick of being called the good girl, or princess! I meen i wouldnt get attatched to it would i? Is it as bad as grown ups make it seem? (link)
this is one of those tricky situations.

Ok, so you are 15,

first things first, it is illegal.

But we can continue talking about it as we take a "biological approach" (all in the name of science)

It depends on what you drink and how you drink it.

A small glass of wine, or maybe some champaigne, there willl be no effect whatsoever.

If it is beer you want, stick to one beer, or maybe even half.

stay away from stuff like tequilla. and even vodka.

If you chill with your friends, just take a small sip if you want to fit in.

And simple rules.

1) drink it slowly
2)make sure you had something to eat earlier and some water to drink afterwards.
3) do not do it frequently, maybe once a month or less
4)think of it as an experience and not something that is cool, because it is not cool.

Like that other advice dude said, this stuff is kinda tricky to talk about. especially in public forums like these.

If you want, send it directly to my email account. We can talk more that way.
