My friend has these awesome colorful bracelets she bought somewhere. They're called Silly Bandz and she wears them all the time now. At first she told me she got them from a store around where we live but then said she bought them online. Where can I get Silly Bandz bracelets though? They're sort of like jelly bracelets people use to wear when they played Snap. Yeah. Where can I get 'em? :) THANKSSS

I have to wash my hair every other day to get it to stay not greasy and pretty. Some days I just get so tired of washing it and I want to go longer. It doesn't smell or anything but it looks so dirty and gross. What can I put in my hair to make it less greasy looking without actually washing it in the shower or bathtub? THANKKKKS
Dry shampoo in cans, those are quite good.
Or simply rub baby powder in your roots, this works very well :)
What's the Age limit to Buy / purchase Condom's?
There is no age limit.
They have to keep you safe, whatever age you are, regardless to the legal age to have sex.
I need more music to download, and the genre I like is rock/hard rock/alternative. Bands I listen to are Breaking Benjamin, Trapt, Rise Against, Bullet For My Valentine, etc - like that. What other bands are similar to those? Thanks!
Since I personally don't listen to those bands, but know them; this will help you out:
http://audiomap.tuneglue.net/
Type a band name, i.e "Breaking Benjamin" in the search box at the top.
When the circle with their name pops up on the screen, click on it, and choose "expand".
You'll be presented with bands similar to BB. And then from there you can go on and on.
Works with any band.
It really does work. I've used it a lot recently.
Sorry for not being able to give you names directly. I'll let you have the fun with that site :)
So, I have decided last October that I would grow my hair out long an donate it to Locks of Love to be made into a wig. Everyone tells me how great my hair is, so I thought "Why not donate it?" My hair grows pretty fast so I'm not too worried about cutting it off. I am scared though. All my friends are going to be there though, I'm having it cut at a Cancer walk. So, my hair will be cut from around my chin. Since I'm used to having it so long I was thinking about trying some new and different that I would never have my hair cut like. I was thinking, if I'm getting it all cut off dramatically minus well make it all dramatic. So, I was looking at hair styles on google and I came across the "mohawk" for girls. My main question is I want to try the mohawk thing out but if I decide I don't like it and want to leave it straight down would it look okay? If you have one or are a hair cuttery person (haha, sorry).It's not going to be a full on Mohawk. I was thinking about getting my hair cut to my chin and then having it short layered and looking kinda "messy" and maybe just mohawk it that way. How do you think that would work? Or if you have any other suggestions on pictures? Btw, my hair is Light Blonde/Blonde. If that even matters. It's also kind of thick.
If you don't shave the sides, then wearing your hair "down" in a non-mohawk way will be just fine, if you style it.
You can easily achieve something similar to this, when wearing it down. The length, of course depends:

But the way you described the cut you'd like to get, would work with many different styles, so I'd say go for it!
Experimentation can be good, and you may discover a style that you really love!
In case you were thinking about shaving the sides, I'd really say no against it, unless you really are willing to wear your hair in a mohawk 24/7. A friend of mine went from a girly mohawk, to the totally punk one...and after a week she was tired of the style, and it wasn't really "her" so she shaved off her hair entirely and ended up wearing a hat for almost 3 month, until her hair was long enough to look decent.
This wasn't fun, really.
what does jacked off mean?
Masturbation for guys.
so im having a little party/get together with about 5 dudes and 5 chicks, probably gna drink, smoke, etc... but what else should we do? like its not gna be a party wher ur throwin back beers and shit, just like probably some pong, but what else is there to do for the night, cept just chill?
Well, I was at a similar party for the past two days.
Because the weather was quite warm, we sat out on the patio for most of the day, played drinking card games (Mostly The Ring Of Fire, which is really fun and not too brutal) and we just talked, and some chill music in the background.
Then we cooked up some food, and went indoors when it got cold, there we relaxed and watched movies, and in another room, people were playing Xbox, pS2.
As long as you have a good atmosphere, music for everyone's liking and good company, you don't need to over plan or fuss. It all works out :)
I am planning a trip with my boyfriend to Europe for next october/november. We are definitely traveling by Eurail, so we will buy the two month pass which will be a couple thousand dollars. I was wondering, aside from the cost of the train, about how much (a general amount, of course) will we need to save up to do this trip? Basically, we will be flying to Spain, and going through italy, france, switzerland, czech rep, germany, holland, denmark, sweden, and then stop in saint petersburg, russia. This is just a rough-draft itinerary, and it's likely to change, so if you have any suggestions of really pretty cities or countryside, they would definitely be considered. Anyways, we are looking to stay in hostels and with friends, eat at small, cheap cafes, and basically just sight see. We aren't looking to do big tours or anything fancy, and we aren't going for nightclubs or shopping sprees. So my question is, what is the general range of money that we are going to need? other than the train pass, how much will it cost for two months for hostels and inexpensive restaurants? I have never been so I don't really know how expensive things are there, and we are just starting college so we dont have the most money in the world. Thanks for your help!!
I can guarantee that you'll enjoy this trip :) Living in Europe myself, I know how great it is to travel around here.
One tip that I'd suggest is to stick to countries which use the Euro as their currency. This makes things a lot easier, and you'll save a lot of money by not having to constantly exchange and so on (there are a few countries that don't use the Euro, like Sweden)
So, the countries you're planning to visit so far sound good. Each are quite different from one-another. But as a suggestion; I'd say that Belgium would be a great stop, especially Brussels(Bruxelles). I've been living here for almost nine years, and it is beautiful, and not over-priced. You can take a train from here to Holland in two and a half hours :)
Also, bear in mind that for Swiss hostels, you'll really have to look around because Switzerland is fairly expensive.
In Germany, finding a cheap hostel is easy. Really, there are so many out there, same in France and Italy.
I can't tell you a price in dollars, but on average, you can spend about €20-50 a night in a double room (Hostels) around most European countries. It tend to vary.
Restaurants? Well, I'd say that you can get a good meal for +/- €10. Especially in Germany, Belgium and Italy. They have good food everywhere!
Denmark and Sweden..both are fairly expensive countries...
I visited both in the summer, and I was in Stockholm, Sweden just last week. Restaurants are manageable..but a sleeping place for cheap...virtually impossible!
For those two countries I suggest serious research beforehand.
However, if you plan on visiting Stockholm, "Af Chapman" is a great hostel with decent prices, located right in the middle of Stockholm, and you have three different types of transport within 10 minute walks.
I hope this helped a bit :) If you have any more questions to ask, feel free. I know Europe quite a lot by now :)
19/f this is going to sound kind of dumb but what are some unique things i could do to my guitar to make it look like it's mine? I mean like what are some ways i could decorate it? It's an acoustic guitar, and i named it cinnamon lol i know its kind of cheesy, but just go along with it.
I agree with Matt. Don't turn it into an art project.
Let me give you an example; my friend had a plain black electric guitar. On the back of it he stuck a sticker with his band logo, since it went well with the guitar and had a personal meaning. Then he bought a bright pink, fluffy strap for his guitar. Why? Because that is his guitar, adds a unique touch and stands out considering he is in a death metal band.
Hope you get the idea :)
I'm going to a concert (Muse, if it matters), and it's my first, so I'm not sure what I should wear.
Things to keep in mind:
- I will be standing and am going several hours early, so I'll be there a long time. I know I need to wear comfy shoes.
- I want to look cute.
- I'll be getting there at 3 and the concert starts at 8.
- If it matters what I look like: five eight, average weight, pale skin, dark brown hair and brown eyes
Anything, whether it's general or specific (even makeup/hair ideas), would be really helpful. Thanks.
I'd say converse, if you have any or just cute sneakers. But bear in mind that if you're standing the crowd as well, people will trample your feet at times, so don't wear anything too light.
I'd say long trousers, even if you do get hot quickly, but just wear a cute tank-top or short-sleeved shirt. Don't over accessorize; a bracelet or two is fine.
And as for make up; keep it simple, since you'll get hot (Trust me, I know from experience...and I go to heavy metal concerts, etc) and it'll get runny. So try to stick to eyeliner + mascara at the most. Eye shadow can get messy.
And most importantly; enjoy the concert! Have fun :)
How do you get the end ball of the barbell off? I figured you just twist it but it won't come off? I just got my industrial done in February and I wanna switch the barbell but it won't twist off.
It should twist off, but assuming you had a reputable piercer, s/he screwed it on tight enough, because the balls can often fall off.
Just go to a piercing parlour and ask them to open it for you, that's what I've done a few times.
Im Meeting my boyfriends parents and i dont have a clue what to wear.. help please?
we are staying in doors, just going to there house
You're lucky you get to prepare yourself for meeting them.
I met my boyfriend's parents after a long night of drinking (he had a casual drinking night the previous night, but his parents left before I arrived) I was hungover, wearing his boxers and t-shirt...
Fortunately they are laid-back and still seem to like me :D
Wear something casual but appropriate; like a nice but casual shirt and a pair of nice jeans (not scruffy or ripped) Make sure you feel comfortable and be yourself :)

Something like this is perfect in my opinion.
I have a big test on thursday, and I could really use some good study techniques!!!!
Study in one hour spurts. Stay concentrated on one particular thing, study it for an hour and then take a 10-15 minute break, test if you really know what you just studied and move onto the next topic.
Writing things out over and over helps you remember things better as well :)
Also, try to find some kind of logic or structure when studying, don't go "all over" if you understand what I mean.
Also, here are some great play lists that help you concentrate, if playing softly in the background:

Hope this helped :)
I need something light and pretty to keep a nice smell around me during the day. Any cheap sprays or deodorant reccomended for a 14 year old??
The Body Shop has some nice sprays. It's not perfume but smells lovely.
White Musk for females is so nice and it is light and refreshing.
They also have some others, none that are too strong.

What are some good TV shows?>
Examples of stuff I like = South Park, The Simpsons, The Office (current favorite).
House M.D and Family Guy are my current favourites :)
I am angry. I'm sure there are more girls out there who are as angry out there as I am. I am 17. I am so sick of pussy hungry guys. Why does it seem like now days all guys want is sex. They can't stick with one girl for at least a month. Its like, they can't ever get enough pussy at all. I am just sick of it. It's just so selfish and pig like. What is happening? It just seems to get worse every year. I know not all guys are like this, but most of them are...ew...its so irritating! I just want to hear your opinions guys/girls, what you think about what i'm saying.
Oh god, I know what you mean.
Up until a few months ago, every guy I met lost interest the second I made them understand that I wasn't interested in a one-night fling. There'd be texting for a couple of weeks, and when I rejected the obvious hint for "lets have sex" the guy would just slowly fade out of the picture.
It honestly seems like 90% of the guys out there just want sex.
Somehow I've met a guy who actually considers sex to be the least important thing in our relationship, and told me he wants to wait, even though we're both ready because he loves me too much to make the relationship sex dependant. And we've only been together for two or so months.
It seems like more and more girls are being hurt by sex-crazy guys and it makes me sad, honestly.
I'm pretty sure you'll meet someone nice enough. Meanwhile, ignore the pussy-hunters!
so when i go on webcam with friends on msn i wnt to be able to freexe the cam and use the '' prt sc '' button ( print screen ) but i dont reall knw how ay help please ? x
Agreed with the person below. However, if you really want to pause the webcam (and this will only be possible for you) when you have your webcam open, click on the little arrow and choose "pause webcam"
Okay, for the girl/guys that an industrial piercing... i need some help!
* on a scale of 1-10 how much did it hurt?
* how often do you have to clean it? for how long?
* which ear do you have it on? left or right?
* was it worth the pain?
* how long have you had it? does it still hurt?
* does it hurt when you sleep and you sleep on that ear?
* did it hurt when it was getting pierced of afterwards?
anything else, lemme know!! i really want an industrial piercing
Alrighty, I HAD an industrial but took it out, let me tell you why. The main problem with the piercing is the long bar. Regardless to the fact that your ear has healed, the bar does cause some irritation, and in the end, it seemed easier for me to take it out. However, there are a lot of people whose ears are fine with the bar, and have no problems. And to answer your questions:
*3/10, ten being painful.
*Cleaning it, definitely twice a day, until it has healed completely. Usually varies from a month to two and a half, but it all depends on the person.
*Had it on my left, since I always hold my phone up to my right ear.
*I had it for almost 9 months. Pain, I explained above.
*It hurt sometimes when sleeping on it, depends on the pillow position or whatever.
*Piercing was a quick pinch, after it was more painful, but definitely not unbearable. But then again, everything depends on your pain threshold. I, personally feel the slightest pinch, and some tender burning when getting a cartilage piercing, something almost unnoticeable to me. Some people I know had tears rolling down their cheeks when getting a simple helix, so I hope you see what I mean :P
The main thing is, if you do end up getting it pierced, get two short barbells in the holes, instead of the long bar straight away. It heals so much faster, it's easier, and causes less pain. My friend who had the long bar in straight away suffered until he switched to two small barbells.
Even if your piercer suggests a long one, don't got for it. You'll be able to enjoy the piercing much faster, if you heal it with two bars.
Whichever studio you choose, make sure that the place is clean and reputable. This is always an important factor.
Happy piercing! :D
My boyfriend is a big prankster and is always pranking me. I want to get him back big time. I've been looking some up on the internet but I was wondering if anyone here had any good ideas too. Thanks to anyone who responds. :)

There's a lot of really good stuff there :D
I find myself addicted to ZUG.
Good luck ;)
so i have got a built in webcam but when i go on webcam with people i was wondering how do i get the webcam to got black and white
any ideas thanks (:
I'm not aware of which online messenger you use, however, when you have your webcam open whilst chatting, find options or such for the webcam, and turn down the "saturation" that should make it black and white :)
If you provide your IM program, I could give you something more specific.
Hope the general idea helps :)
