about

Long story short, I'm from Los Angeles, went to an amazing school, left the US and moved to the Middle East. I've been backpacking around Europe and the Middle East on and off since August 2013.


Would you like to converse? Here's my Forum




Quite frankly, I'm sarcastic way more than I should be. Read a few of my answers, and you'll see that I am not totally mean to anyone.

Type correctly or go home. Yes, that is an ultimatum.




advice

okay, well i have 4 questions in this one, so if you answer it please try to answer all three.

my best friend gets mad at me like every other day for the exact same reason, because i decided to sit with different people at lunch and talk to different people in the hallways. its been like this since like third grade. she has ALWAYS been extremely moody, its just getting worse and worse though. plus, shes always accusing me of things. i was about to totally tell her off on friday, but i knew i would feel horrible after i did. because once i do something mean, i regret it right after .but i truly don't know what to do anymore. ignoring doesn't work. i ignored her for a year and half and it didn't help. well of course, but we were young then . i don't know what to do. advice?

there is this one girl in my athletics class who is kinda poor. (i don't mean to sound snobby or anything, but i live in a small town and my family is about the richest ones there) before i knew that and acctually got to hand out with her, we were like best buds. but ever since i went over to her house, she annoys me sooo badly, and whenever i think about her, im just disguisted. shes really nice and stuff but i just can't help it. and i like poorist or something? and when we are at school she annoys me less, but still does. so i dont know, but when we hang out its like a nightmare.

this past weekend, i went to my 2 friends cheer competition. this other girl that they were gonna take got grounded. i didn't even know they were gonna invite her. then her mom was like why don't you come next weekend with us too (they have another comp. then too) and they were like no, we were gonna invite anna(friend) instead, but she got grounded thats why we invited courtney(me). and shes supposed to be ungrounded by then so we were gonna take her. but if she can't come then you can come instead. it seemed like i was just their last resort or something, it made me feel really bad, idk what my question is here though.


i have a problem with jealousy. its completely ridiculous, like stuff i shouldn't even get jealous about. like if someone else knows the words to my favorite song, then i feel jealousy build up inside me. or the example about the cheer thing. i went this time so it was only fair that someone else go, but i still felt completely jealous. does anyone know how to fix this?


sorry for all the quesitons. but please answer each one! plleaseeee!

You're being a control freak.

YOU have the power to choose who your friends are.

Do what you want; it's your life. If your "friends" are getting jealous over stuff like THAT, wait until you all actually grow up.

I think you need to redefine the word "friend" anad find some people who have those traits.

These people aren't really worth keeping if they're treating you like this.

On a side note, please only ask one thing per question. It makes it easier for people to give you specific responses.

When do I apply? Junior or senior year? Beause if I apply this year (junior), then how will colleges know the results of my senior year(such as graduating with honors or my grades..)??

Thanks in advance :]

I don't know WHAT the person below me is thinking...

You apply in the FALL or WINTER of your SENIOR year.

After you are accepted (spring of your senior year), they keep tabs on your grades, and at the end of the year, ask for your transcripts and a copy of your diploma.

Some colleges only need the transcripts.

Senior year grades aren't usually used to calculate your cumulative GPA, though, and neither are senior accomplishments.

American Eagle has the "All-Access Pass", where how much you spend gets you points for a discount every quater. Do Hollister or Delia's have anything like that? I know Hollister used to have "Club Cali", but I'm not sure that still exsists?

No, they don't. At least not Hollister.

Hi I was wondering, if your appendix bursts, and you go to the hospital, i know they have to do surgury, but do they usually keep you there for a couple of days to make sure your ok?

If it actually bursts, you're in there for a long time.

A friend of mine was in the hospital for 26 days.

If it's ABOUT to burst, then yes, they will keep you for a few days.

Will God forgive you for everything you do even if its so so so bad you guys dont know how bad it was it was all my fault and I'm afraid God wont forgive me I really want to know if God forgives us for all of our sins and if he does is there such a place as hell?

I don't believe in Hell.

My theory on forgiveness (because I'm Jewish) is that if the person forgives you for what you've done, then G-d will as well.

Chill out.

that picture isnt the best example, but i have a bunch of old T shirts, and ive seen people cut their shirts so one of their shoulders is out..

how exactly do you cut the shirt though? cuz ive tried and messed up

instructions would be good! thank you (:

Use a pair of scissors and cut about 2 niches below the neckline. If the neckline curves, curve your cut. Cut more as needed.

hey i have curly hair and it is really hard to keep brushed and not frizzy.i try straitening it and i get tired quick from doing this please help!!! signed frizzy

I don't brush my hair when it's curly. It gets crazy frizzy.

Brush it before you shower, if you must.

But that is how I get my lovely ringlets.

Then, when I straighten my hair, I brush it out then.

At school we do this thing were a bunch of high school girls go and spend the evening with 8th grade girls and help them get ready to transition into high school. Every year we break into "teams" of about 30 girls and have cute little names and themes and what not

This year our overall theme is like a california beach glamour kind of idea (like when you think of a girl with her big sunglasses and long flowy hair driving a comfortable with palm trees around)

The name we have come up with so far is Sassy Sunrays but I was wondering if anyone had any other suggestions

(it can be related to anything beach or ocean or glam or anything really... just preferable not super girly like princesses and babes and stuff.... and it must be middle school appropriate, but at the same time something that they would think is more highschoolish and cool!)

Haha. I wish I could be in a convertible with my long flowy hair.

It's raining. :[

But yeah, on you your question. :]

I like Hollywood Hotties.
California Cuties.
I know you don't want babes, but Beachy Babes is an option for if you get desperate.

Have fun.

hey i just turned 16 and I have never kissed a guy or hooked up, had a boyfriend or anything. I hang out with a few guys, but there is one guy that i want to hang out with but he is always busy and i really dont think he likes me. I feel like i am the only one who has never even been asked out before at this age. I'm a really outgoing person and i guess im pretty attractive too. Any advice as to why I have gotten no where?

I haven't either.

I have chosen not to; there have been guys that have asked me to "hook up", but I'm saving my first kiss for someone worth my while.

I had a weeklong relationship in the seventh grade...but I asked him out, so I gueess I've never been asked out either.

Like you, I'm incredibly outgoing and talkative and conceited as it may be, pretty.

I'm more concerned with having amazing guy friends than hooking up. Guys are amazing, and while a boyfriend would be nice, I'd rather have fun as friends.

6 months along :]
its a girl.
me and my boyfriend have some names pciked out.
but arent sure what to name her.
just lemme know what you think.

Riley James Court.
Brooklyn ray Court.
Elizabeth lynn Court.
Courtney may Court.

^6what one do you like the best.
or give me some suggestions.

Except for Elizabeth, all of those names are names she will outgrow.

I LOVE the names Emma and Louise. My name is Amy, and I really like that, too.

I like Nicole (or Nicholle) and Valerie for middle names.

Valerie, actually, for either.

They are adorable on little kids, and they are still respectable names that your child can be the CEO of a company with.

Emma Nicholle Court.

Valerie Mae Court.

Rachael Valerie Court.

Amy Jo Court.

Louise Rae Court.

Emma Elizabeth Court.

I also really like Ryan for a girl.

Ryan Nicole Court.

And so on and so forth.

My advice: Wait until you see the baby before you name it.

So this is my first year of college. Just my luck, I get a roommate that has no life except her boyfriend. He stays in our room for weeks at a time and has no life himself. Mind you, it is against the rule to have boys stay the night in our dorms. I have talked to my roommate about him TWICE. I told her I didn't like that he was here so much and I thought it was fair that he only visited once a month and didn't stay on school nights.

Well we just got back from Christmas break and NOTHING has changed. It pisses me off to no end. I would love to just go tell on her, but #1 I have my boyfriend visit once a semester and I don't want to get in trouble and #2 I don't want to start shit with this girl since I'm going to be forced to live with her until May.

The other night, my roommate and her boyfriend were in the room doing god-knows-what on the top bunk and I was on my bottom bunk talking to my boyfriend on the phone. He could tell I was upset, but I couldn't straight out talk about my roommate without saying their names. So he told me to say #1 to refer to my roommate and #2 to refer to her boyfriend. So we did that. I didn't say anything obvious so that she would know we were talking about her.

Anyway, ever since then she's been really mad at me. I think somehow she knew what I was talking about. She won't even talk to me. I think she's being really immature because she invited her boyfriend up AGAIN. I'm going through a lot right now because my grandpa just had a major surgery and this is NOT something I want to deal with.

Here are my options:

1) Completely confront her and TRY to be calm. Ask her why she's upset and apologize if I have to for not going straight to her with my issues.

2) Move out and get a different roommate (which I'm trying to avoid just to spite her because I know that's what she wants)

3) Just go to my residence life director and tell her everything my roommate did and let her handle the situation.

What do I do? I'm so upset right now.

I'd try and handle it yourself.

She's being really rude.

Childish as it may be, don't be silent when they're there. Do what YOU want. If you need to turn the lights on "for a sec," do it.

Explain to her that you're not planning your life around her boyfriend.

i found this myspace of a girl who says shes going out with dylan efroen, zac efrons younger brother. shes not famous, or a model or anything shes just a regular girl. she says she knows zac and dylan and ashley and vanessa and all them. she evn has a pic of her and zac. but i was wondering if thats really true...i mean, does dylan efron rlly hav a girlfriend? or is this all a lie? thanks.

They're from San Luis Obsipo.

If she lives around there, I'd say it's possible. Maybe it's because I live in LA, but I know a few celebrities relatively well.

It's probably over by now anyway. You know how teen relationships go.

On Monday my teacher warned my Eight Grade class that we are going to have a classroom spelling. Whoever passes it will go to the School Spelling Bee, which i am very excitd about, because i am a GREAT speller. Although I don't know what the words are going to be, I am very anxious, curious, and scared that I don't know how to spell a word because I never heard or seen it before.

Any tips on how I canbe good at Spelling Bees?
And also do you guys know where I can find the words that are frequently used in Spelling Bees? Either class spelling bees or school, or BOTH :)

I could really use your heklp for my advantage/benefits. I would gladly appreciate if you take your time to give me some advice and help me out so I will feel good & confident when it is my turn to spell, rather than freaking out.

Conclusion:
I REALLY WANT TO GET TO THE TOP AND WIN THE SCHOOL SPELLING BEE SINCE I DIDN'T WIN THE GEOGRAPHY BEE. I KNOW I NEED TO STUDY THE WORDS EACH DAY AND NOT CRAM ALL THE WORDS IN MY HEAD 3 DAYS BEFORE THE COMPETITION. BUT DO YOU GUYS KNOW ANY WAY HOW TO HELP ME OUT WITH WORDS? ANY TRICKS AND TIPS?

More:
Do you guys know any hard words that you think I can spell?

If there's more to say, please add more information and go beyond the advice, meaning, give a really helpful advice to me.

14/female/8th grade :),
Future spelling Bee QUEEN :)

I was a champ back in my day.

I was really close to going to nationals in 2005.

Anyway.

The official book is called 2008 Spell It!

However, most schools do NOT use the official book nor do they play by official rules. You jsut have to be good at spelling to win those. I think my words were rather easy.

A lot of spellers write it out either mentally or with their finger on their hand. I never found this to be particularly helpful, but a lot of other people did. I can't do math like that, either.

Furthermore, be sure to use things to your advantage. You can ask your adjudicators to repeat words and (I'm using regional and national rules here) you can also ask for the etymology, definition, and part of speech. Be sure to ask for these! You can ask for them for every word, and I recommend doing so. Besides giving you more time, it helps you to know that you're spelling the right word. For example, if I said "effect", you might spell a-f-f-e-c-t, and in that case you'd be wrong. Also, it clarifies. For example, a fellow competitor was eliminated for spelling mohair incorrectly because the adjudicator said "molehair".

Good luck.
