Q: Just wondering when can you take a pregnancy test?

you can take it ant any time you want ... but if you take it for example, 2 days after unprotected sex....it isnt going to be that accurate. wait until you skip your period is what i have been told. then check :D

Q: I download fonts at www.dafont.com but when I want to use them, I always have to open up a folder and find a font that I want to use. Is there a way just to get the font on the list of fonts right when I'm on the program so I don't have to always search for it and open up all these folders?

go to thecontrol panel and find the folder for fonts. Look under the things at the top (file and such) and find "install new font". go into that and find the folder with your fonts in it. select them and hit install. They will then be in the program you use!

Q: ok so (not trying to brag or anything) but im a really good singer, and i want to sing and play stuff like the rocket summer but my voice gets all weird when i go for not the reeally high ones but like in between idk. hah

then you are an alto ... thats all. you can't change your singing range too much. Pick songs that show off the range you can hit good. if you force yourself to hit high notes and it hurts...dont do it. if you go for notes that are too high it will sound bad. Try parts that are for Alto's or Soprano 2's. Just becuase you can't hit the high notes doesn't mean you can't sing cute songs :D

Q: ah.so its that time of the month ..
and i have the worst cramps ever.
and i feel so like, bloated and puffy.
and huge haha.

but, none of any of my other periods have been like this?
i have SOME cramps, but not as many as i do now.
and i never feel bloated.
until now?

is this normal? i never feel like this on my period.
what should i do about it?

your normal.

it happens to me one month the pms is non existant but the next month is really bad. take some midol and avoid salt and soda (the sugar, caffiene, and salt make cramps and bloating worse i'v been told). Get used to having weird pms ... it will be different each month.

Midol will be your best freind!

Q: I work as a service clerk in a drugstore, usually in 8-hour shifts. During this time I am either running around stocking things, helping people find things, or ringing people up, so I'm obviously on my feet the entire time. I am not allowed to wear sneakers or open-toed shoes, but by the end of the day my feet are killing me. I've tried wearing flats, vans, heels, kitten heels, and boots but they all were painful. Anyone have (a) any suggestions for close-toed, comfy shoes, or (b) any ideas to stop the pain?

try crocs. they helped me alot

Q: i want a new hairstyle but idk what would look good on me. if you answer my question ill snd you a pic of me 2 say what looks goood i just dont want every1 2 c it. so anyways im 13/f really light brownish hair i kinda have a big nose(lol) and i think my face is oval shaped. rite now i always part it in the middle but i want 2 get it layered and would side bangs (not side swept) but like the bangs tht are only on the sidess of ur face look good on me???

sry if tht was confusing!

thanks!

well i am a student in beauty school. if you need anything in that area drop me a line in my inbox.

i have a round face so i can't tell ya what i do to my hair :D lol

on an oval face layers would look amazing...and side bangs could look good depending on how thick and how they are done. if you tell me more about your hair (is it thick, is it long or short that kinda stuff) i could help you out more

Q: Can you get AIDS by drinkin after somebody that has AIDS?
thanks :]

no way. unless they bled into their drink ... which is gross and oyu would know.

My teacher told me that in order to transmit aids through saliva you would have to drink almost a gallon of saliva in on sitting ... which is unreal so you dont have to worry :D

Q: Okay, I need advice on what kind of haircut I should get... But I have a few problems.

Problem 1: My hairline. It's too high up on my forehead. And it's like a square. It starts three inches above my eyebrows and juts out beyond my temples. I feel like I HAVE to have some sort of bangs. It's embarassing to pull it all back because it's such a wierd shape and not flattering at all.

Problem 2: Curly girl. I have tight S-shaped curls, but the hair is so fine that it weighs itself down. I never get any volume at the root.

I am a teen and my hair is dishwater blonde, shoulder length. Young face... I'd like something not too short, but that makes me look more mature... and is not too hard to keep up. Help?

try sideswept bangs. They can blend in with the rest of your hair and will cover your forehead so you dont have to feel weird. as for the cut itself...the stylist (if hse is a true professional) will help you pick a style that will fit you best. As a some-what professional (student still in beauty school) i would just add layers, it will help your curls lay better. if i was you i wouldnt let them use a razor on it.

any other hair questions...drop one in my inbox

Q: Ok well my brother was sick and last night he slept with my teddy bear. He told me he didn't cough on it or anything but can i still get sick?

=/ if I can..what can i do about my bear? I can't describe what the fur is like but if it gets washed then it won't be the same no more

you CAN get sick, doesnt mean you WILL

as for disinfecting the bear...spray it with febreeze, as long as the bottle says "disinfectant" it will work. otherwise you might have to dryclean which is expensive

Q: I want to take the test to be certified as a lifeguard. I only want to spend 1 day or 1 week doing this, not like a whole month, and I don't want to pay alot. Is this possible? and where can I get information and stuff. I tried googling it but it was hard and I didn't understand anything. Thank you soo much. Oh yeah and I live in CT, so anywhere near there would be great.

I'm also 14, turning 15 in 3 weeks.

well, i dont really know anything about being a certified lifeguard...but check places like the YMCA. I think you need to take a course or something, but they will tell you everything you need to know. sorry i couldnt be more help but i dont know ... and especially in CT ... go to your local YMCA or pool...that would be my sugestion.

Q: so i heard that lemon juice + a blowdryer = highlights... but i thought it was the light from the sun that highlighted your hair, not the heat? so would a blowdryer work?

i dont suggest using lemon juice on your hair. its very harsh. Now iu agree with the person below me...dont use sun in! it will screw up your hair so bad. I am a student in beauty school and our teachers told us if they use sun-in, we can not do anything chemical to their hair (color, perm, or chemically straightening) without the risk of their hair burning or falling out. So if you are interested in coloring or perming your hair in the future, DONT USE SUN IN. if you want highlights, the best way is to go to a salon. The easiest and best way to get highlights is to pay for them and get them dont professionally. trust me...your hair will thank you :D

Q: Please answear this question

What charity would you like to support and why?

humane society and any charity that has to do with cancer, cuz i have seen it ruin two peoples lives so far, not to mention their families

Q: If you had to go back in time and change one thing, if you HAD to, even if you have "no regrets" what would you change?

well if i had to change something, then my life would not be what it is right now. but one thing i might change is i would have started school in the spring instead of fall, cuz by now i would almost be graduated.

Q: can anybody help me find some good latino/spanish/other/hispanic films?

here are some ive watched:

- quincenera
- valentino
- valentin
- like water for chocolate
- frida

i thought "Selena" was good. it isnt in spanish but it is about a latina singer. its more of a chick flick but hey, you might like it.

Q: what does it feel like?

its the most amazing emotion you will ever feel. its different for different people. for some people it is a deffinate thing, some others it is more mysterious. you will know when you are in love, you wont have to question it, youi will just know

Q: I'm going to high school next year, What are all the things I need?

It's better to ask here then ask like the secretary when they're not even real students.

Thanks.

lets see. calculater, one notebook for each class, one folder for each class, a ton of pens and pencils (not red...most teachers grade in red pens), some looseleaf paper, and basic school supplies like that until your teachers give you specifics for that class.

Q: i'm a girl and my handwriting is really bad..i wanna fix it b4 the new school year starts so is there any way for me to get better handwriting?

i know this is gonna sound kinda dumb...but practice like little kids do when they learn to write. practice forming your letters better, practice taking your time and writing slower. maybe even try a different type of writing (print or cursive, which ever you use). but most of all practice and write slowly.

good luck :D

Q: http://i5.tinypic.com/2j2jdjm.jpg

is that picture from one of the saw movies?

not that i am aware of. if it is ... it is from the third one. i haven't seen it but i dont think that from the SAW movies

Q: Okay my GPA after my freshman year was a 2.5 is it going to be hard to bring that up?

15/f

after one year ... not as hard as after two years. just work extra hard in your classes. I had two classes (yearbook and chior) that i knew were guaranteed A's as long as i showed up...that helped my gpa. Just aim for like 80's and your gpa should come up. the earlier the easier

Q: what happened w/ the clintons like what did they do? i know bill clinton was the presedent and his wife is running for president next year but... what was the "scandal" tht ppl are tlking about?

he had "sexual relations" with Monica Lewinski in the oval office... i think it was the oval office... and then i think he lied about it under oath.

also hillary is i think a senator in new york. she was elected to that in 2000 i believe.
