what are some job ideas for a 17 year old girl? i dont want to work at any food places and no where boring and quiet (link)
personally a food place is the best place. you make lotts of casshhhh. not like taco bell or something like an actual restaurant thats a pretty busy place on the weekends.. i can almost say any place you work at now has a hostess and bussers.. and just about everywhere they will tip everyone that works on those nights.. and trust me those tips are awesome cause thats just extra cash on top of what you'll make for the hours you've worked..

and for me im 17 and is a waitress making even better tips then a busser or hostess... i cant serve alcohol here in CA (the law says you must be 18) so many places may not allow you to serve unless your just a good worker, or know the manager that shift or somethinggg..


other wise.. dont work at any department stores (target, macys, etc..) i've HEARD they're hard to work with when it comes to getting a day off or something... try the mall or something.. otherwise i dunno...


good luckkkk (:


14/f. ok, so my cousins wedding is in a couple of weeks, and i was at the mall the other day, and i saw this dress, and my mom said she would buy it for me, so i got it:

http://www3.jcpenney.com/jcp/Products.aspx?DeptID=40380&CatID=46908&CatTyp=DEP&ItemTyp=G&GrpTyp=PRD&ItemID=11e3a30&ProdSeq=15&Cat=dresses&Dep=&PCat=&PCatID=46903&RefPage=ProductList&Sale=&ProdCount=48&RecPtr=&ShowMenu=&TTYP=&ShopBy=0&RefPageName=CategoryAll%252Easpx&RefCatID=46903&RefDeptID=40380&Page=99&CmCatId=EXTERNAL|46903|46908

i also got a black headband to go with it cause i thought it would look cute. but.... is the dress really wedding matirial?? like, is it to dull to wear to a wedding? but, i guess it wouldn't really matter anyways, cause my mom said i couldn't take it back. lol. but i still want to know if it looks ok to wear to a wedding. and also, what kinda jewlrey would look good with the dress? nothing to expensive, and something i could wear with other clothes. some kinda jewlrey from icing or claires or somethin. lol. kk, so thanx! (link)
no its perfect for a weddingg (:

i would so wear the headband.. and then add bangles.. like these:

http://claires.com/product.asp?name=prod&color=brown/clear&rcid=31&id=3174&scid=33

usually when i wear those i slide them on my hand then pull it up to as tight as it gets on your arm.

have funnn (:


16/f;; so it goes like this. my boyfriend and i have been together for almost a year. this is my longest relationship & my only 'serious' one. all the others were like 3 weeks aha except for one after 7th grade ended which lasted for 4 months but that doesnt count bc that was just stupid. n e way. i love my boyfriend but lately ive been gettin butterflies and stuff around certain other guys, almost like im developing crushes. i know i should have fun & play the field and what not but i love my boyfriend and although i do get irritated with him lately i cant see myself without him and dont want to break up. basically how can i just get over these little crushes on these guys? avoiding them is not an option in some cases, not to mention im a flirt and i dont even realize i do it =/ (link)
you know the same thing happend to me a few months ago, i've been with my boyfriend for two and half years...freshman year, to now my senior year.. but its hard to stick with the same person. and i tried to explore the field..him and i both did and guess whatt it lasted a week!

seriously.. i just flat out told him how i was feeling (he is your man so you can talk to him)..i assured him that of course i love him and i dunno why i got those feelings.. but i had them.. he understood and just told me what he thought..

to get over them though.. i seriously look at as.. what could honestly be better.. here i am with a man who truly cares about me, who i've been with for awhile, can talk to about anything, kisses me, hugs me, knows my family.. am i really willing to put all that on the line for a little crush.. i dunno about you but no way. its so hard to find a good guy i hear about it all the time.. i see it through my friends who just arent as lucky as i to have someone as special as i do.. they always say.. if you find something good, hang on to it..

good luck my dear (:


Okay, there is this guy I like, Not very attractive to most people, but I like him so It doesn't matter, and I don't know what to say to him to let him know that I like him, I'm not ever sure if he knows already, I always subtly flirt and he flirts back but I don't know if he LIKES me. It seems he likes me as a friend but I don't know if it's anything more.
He has a girlfriend that he knows nothing about and doesn't really like. she doesn't like him much either.. LOL.
How do I figure out if he likes me?
How should I tell him? ( by the way, I'm a shy person so no " I like you" things....)
(link)
ahw sounds cute (:

your right if you like him then who cares what anyone thinks.. butt i think you should just talk to him and be like "youu knoww.. if things dont work out with (his gf) thennn theres always me (:"

orr you can start it with "lets hang out sometime.." that kinda sends the message you might be into him...

orrr tell him your interested not tht you like him.. dont try breaking up him and his girlfriend cause that wouldn't be cool. even though you know about there relationship. (:

i would do the first one.. hopefully i've given you some help.. whatever you do, dont do it online.. phone mayybeee but in persons usually better.

good luck my dear (:


i didnt get my period since december 22.. in 2006.

but i just got it on friday! wtf? i started my period around last year.. can you tell me whats going on? (link)
same kinda thing happened to me, to this day i dont have a regular period.. i've gone 6 months without having one.. its just uour body. stress can cause you to miss periods so that could be.. but i went to my doctor and she just said its just my body.. theres nothing wrong with me.

dontt worry (: if you get pain and stuff or like just feel like something might not be right tell your folks and go see the doctor. then you can feel better knowing if your A-okay (:


Where can I get pictures on my xanga that are like this - http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j114/laffytaffy_04/starfish.jpg

Like, not the ocean or anything. I mean like that type of picture, original, interesting pictures. Like there's another picture that says, "I don't need money, I just want CHANGE" (like change in the world, not coins, hah) So basically, what could I type in xanga to get pictures sorta like those? (link)
go to the blogrings on xanga and type in "backhgrounds" and you'll get a bunch of groups that post pictures of backgrounds..

(:

heres a lnk (you've got me wanting to look lol)

I bought the Dangerously Straight shampoo (I don't use conditioner) and I was wondering if it actually works? I have straight hair with a slight wave and I use a flat iron to get rid of the slight wave. Does this stuff REALLY work? (link)
to be honest.. i didnt really care for it.. i didnt notice a difference.. i'm sure it depends your type of hair. (:


my interests table looks like this:



anyone know how i can un-strech my table? (link)
girl its gotta be the layout you picked.. go through the code and look for the "table" word.. its kind of in the beginning of the code.. and it might give you like numbers.. change them and see what comes out of it..


its hard to explain without the actual layout code.. send it to me in a message deal and i can look at it (:


OK so theres this boy..my best friend actually.Well i really really really like him(i missed like thousands of reallys btw)..and he says he likes me too and that im the love of his life.but he has a gf.What should I do?..I REALLY LIKE HIM IM GETTING CRAZY...and im 99% i means it when he says he like me too.please help! (link)
girl i hate to be the one to say it but if you were the love of his life then theres no question about it he'd be with you. dont be the backup for him if things dont work out with the girl hes currently with. you need to tell him "if you really love me then why are you with her" no one is MAKING him like her.. so theres not really any good reason..


theres many many guys girl.. he needs to get his feelings strait other wise you can find someone better. (:

takee careee (:


ok. so my friend has a urinary track infection. she said its because she didn't go pee once she had sex. that didn't make any sense to me because i thought that your vagina was a different hole then you pee hole (sorry i don't know the scientific name) and i was just really confused. so if anyone could help me out with this i'd appreciate it (link)
girl i looked and looked and looked and i seriously dont know why you get it from that.. butt ive heard that it kills off any bacteria.i had one from not peeing after sex..and it sucked so bad.. i just drank alottt of cranberry juice and water, no soda, and yeah.

they hurtt.


ok so my boyfriend an i have been going out for about a yr and a half but on and off... we are going out for the 4th time now for like 3 months and well his friend told me that he said that he sometimes doesnt like me at all and then at other times he likes me alot... i know im going to like ask him about it and all but im just really confused on what i should do.. any advice is appreciated thanks..oh im 15/f by the way (link)
yes defintely talk to him about it but dont get angry.. just ask him what it is he means by it.. i mean maybe he said it as like you might make him annoyed or something so he just doesnt like you at the time.. but you guys keep getting back together so i think he might like more than not liking you, ya know? hes your man you've been together for awhile so i know you can talk to him about these things.. just be sure to make it a conversation and not an argument (:

good luckkkk (:


I know this sounds quite weird haha but.. when i go to the bathroom, basically at school where there are like 2 stalls, i like can't pee if there is someone else in the bathroom. like i CAN pee if im going to like explode, but i just cant pee. i dont know why its like i am ashamed of it. its a mental thing and i dont know. whatss up with this it annoys me so much because sometimes i really have to pee.

hahaaa sorry if this is weird (link)
i think us girls get like that. its weird sitting there knowing someone can hear you lol butttt i always sit and then flush so they cant hear it...

i know our bathrooms some have the handle you push down and then some automaticly do it... i go in the ones with handles do i can push it down with my foot then sit real quick and gooo haha

15/f So my boyfriend just broke up with me on friday. He said the reason we needed to break up is because he needs to get his priorities straight. We live kinda far away but my neighbor is his cousin so we see eachother every weekend, and i just figured with summer coming up we could see eachother everyday like last summer. But his mom is making him get a job so he'll like never be over here..and thats another reason he broke up with me. So after that he basically said all he needs is some time and space. But its easier said then done..do you think i should just give him his space and basically give up until he is ready to go back out orrr keep trying? (link)
sounds like hes going through some changes, so i think he deserves his space.. stay in touch, let him know your still around that way he doesnt ever forget about you.

i always tell you girls, theres SOOO MANYYY guyss its crazyyyy (:

it is easier said then done i totallyyy understand, so you need to just spend time with your girls, get to know new people, live up your summer but talk to him every now and then.. let him know your happy (you need to be happy (: )and talk just keep him knowing that your still into him.


gooddd luckkk dearrr (:


We known each other since last december 2nd.but on the internet.I'm student and he is in military.I'm 18 and he's 22.we sent an emails,chats,web-cam,phone calls,mesages each other.we talked about life and any other things.we passed the hard time but we still talking to each other.sometime late in July he have to deploy in Iraq again.I knew that I like him.He like me too.he said before he go he want to see me but he asked me "if you want to!its up to you".he said he care about my decision.I really want to see him too.I know some of the blind dates are silly and funny and horrible.but I don't know I want to see him.I know about him.{not the rest of the things..but I know about him}what should I do?I just want to see him before he go.cuz nobody can knows military men's tomorrow.Especially Marines.please tell me what to do? (link)
girl you said it. " just want to see him before he go.cuz nobody can knows military men's tomorrow."


dooo itttt (:
you've talked to him for awhile. and if things do go horrible hes gunna be leaving so then you just dont have to talk to him but i honestly think you'll be fine (:


good luckkkk (:


I've been going out with my boyfriend for over a year [1yr3m] and face it, it's not the same. I love him as a friend, but I really don't think I feel anything relationship-wise with him. I really don't want to go out anymore because I feel like I'm just putting on an act, and he can tell that it's not the same anymore because I'm not as touchy anymore and I don't show much emotion at all. My friends know that I can't really stand him as a boyfriend anymore. It's just that everything he does annoys me, and it's not his fault, it's mine. I just want to move on and just be friends. But I can't find the nerve to do it, because it's so tough because we've been going out for so long and he's probably one of the few people that I can tell almost anything to and I feel myself around. First question: How can I build up the courage to actually do it? Tips please?

Second Question: We went on a break around Christmas (I enforced it) I was like' I don't want to go out anymore' and he thought it was just a break. Throughout the whole break he kept asking what he did wrong. He didn't do ANYTHING!, it's just not the same anymore. He just keeps saying 'there has to be a reason, things don't just change like that ..how can you just all of a sudden stop liking me' It's things like that that I don't know what to say to. I hate how I have to explain everything, but I guess he deserves it. How can I answer all these questions? It's not like he did anything, it was just the relationship lost it's spark. If I said that, he just DOESN'T GET IT! He keeps asking what happened, even if there wasn't a specific event. How can I get it through his mind that he didn't do anything wrong, and what can I say without sounded like a complete bitch (even though dumping somebody is bitchy).

It's not like I want to, (even though I do) but it's more like I need to, because I'm not happy, and I'm not acting happy around him which doesn't make him happy.

Any relationship advice, personal experiences would help me so much.


(link)
i had that same feeling at one point with my man.. but you sound really determined and your not happy. i totally understand. so i honestly think you need to do it in person, nicely, calmly, and just know hes gunna be hurt im sure so dont give in because you could get side tract and end up in the same position all over again.

just tell him "i really dont feel as if i love you as my boyfriend, its become love for a great guy friend. we need to experience new people, new relationships and everything because i honestly am not as happy as i was from day one. you didnt do anything i just have that feeling, and i want to tell you because i dont want you to think im okay when im not okay. i know i can tell you these things because your a good listener, and thats what makes you an awesome friend.." hopefully there isnt exactly someone just yet, so tell him that its not like your done with him BEACUSE OF someone else.. that way he doesnt keep thinking that he might not be a good guy, or he might think he doesnt do things right..( telling him that will ease the pressure of you having to keep answering that question lol)

and let him know "if you really care about me then you'll want me to be happy right?"

thennn if he still insists that you guys cant break up and what not.. just tell him "im sorry but we just cant be together" and if it comes down to it hang up or leave.. the day will come again when you two will talk and he will be over it and you guys can still be friends..

best of luck dearrr. it will all work out just be STRONG girl! (:






i have this new friend "mary" that ive just started hanging out with. she has a bf, but the other day she told one of her friends that she likes MY bf, and that she wished she'd met him before he started going out with me. so that girl told my bf about it, and my bf told me. (he said don't worry, he doesn't like her). but now, whenever mary invites me to do stuff, she says "why don't you bring your bf?" and my bf is like "why dont you hang out with mary more?" so i asked mary if it was true that she likes my bf, and she said "nooo! i have a bf!" i was really starting to like this girl, but now im wondering, is she just being my friend so she can get to my bf?
(link)
you just need to straight up tell her "look i heard you said to someone you liked my boyfriend (dont mention names its not nice (: ) and i just want you to know that now i think of it, i feel as though it just so happen could be true.. so im asking you if thats the case" she'll most likely deny it but kind of get her feeling alittle threatened that way she wont want to bring up your man or anything..

jsut be careful and dont give them any type of opportunity to end up alone together, around eachother, dont give eachothers phone #'s or any type of screen name cuase that can lead to something taking off.

**but heaven for bid.. something happens and they do like eachother.. then just remind her that she can have your sloppy seconds, and he can date someone who sort of man hops.. (basically goes from one guy to the next)


goodddd luckkk (:

15 f
ok so me and my bf were so great. everything was perfect. we were together for 9 months. so suddently he started being mean to me. like calling me corney or just like wheneevr i asked him something he wouldnt want to tell me. like if i would ask him what are you doing? he would say "something". that would just get annoying. so i was really depressed and i asked him if he wanted a break and he sed no. and i sed i do. and he said ok. and then he put a smily face. this was all through aim. why would he put a smily?. and i asked him why he put a smily and he sed idk. i told him it was jsut a break for a while and he sed ok as long as its for a while. so my best friend has classes with him and she asked him if he wanted to get backtogether and he sed no.i was so sad. and he doesnt have his cell anymore and he barely goes online and i dont go to the same school as he does. also, my other friend was telling me about some girl he used to like. she used to cut herself for him. that made me feel worse. i dont know what to do anymore. i really miss him and cant contact him i wanted to hang out with him this saturday. what should i do? is it too soon the breakup was 2 days ago and we havent talked since. thanks. i rate! (link)
cant you call his house phone? first off.. dont have your friends ask him questions.. it puts pressure on guys and SOMETIMES they will just say whatever they want to make the friend go away. howeverr DO NOTT and i mean DO NOTT cut yourself! no guy is EVER worth pain or any other harm to yourself.. there are so many guys in this world its insane, so one guy isnt worth all that trouble. but if you want to hang out with him then just tell that girl to simply give him your number and ask that he call you to talk. if he doesnt call you then i honestly dont think hes worth any of the trouble because if he really likes you he will go through the trouble of being able to call you and work things out. so if he doesnt then i think you should take it as a learning experience.. and find someone else that will truly care about you(not saying he doesnt but you know)..dont let him know your upset about all of it. it might give him some satisfaction of knowing your hurt there are guys who are like that, epecially around your age. your young girlfriennn live it up (: be happy (:(:

just remember.. if your really that important to him he will do what he can to make you happy and make things work out, together. (:


best of luck my dear, and feel better.

let me know how it goes okay?!

l0veee alwayss-♥;


Okay, so their is this kid that I'm going out with someone. But i think i might like someone else. I mean i love this kid that i'm going out with but this other one is like really nice and everything but i don't know what to do. Help (link)
this may sound really bad.. but honestly.. i know if it were me, i wouldn't want to break it off with the guy im with to try things with someone else unless i knew for sure i had a chance.. so maybe you should see.. and if you DO have a chance then you should try and mention to go on a "break" and see other people... then maybe your man might be willing to, especially if you've been together for a long time. if not then chances are you may not love him as much as you think.. and this guy might be one of the many other guys you're attracted to.

think about it.. still cant figure it out, then you need to sit down and be honest with yourself make a list. on this first list.. write all the things you in like ALL guys, and the things you dont like in ALL guys.. put them in number order, so if looks was your number one thing, and you had five things make it worth 5 and so forth.. then make two separate lists for each of the boys and put what you like and dont like about them.. give them a score and see what happens.. lol i dunno just an idea i guess..

good luck hopefully things become less confusing for you (:

l0veee alwayss-


how do you get rid of a double chin besides plastic surgery???? thanks in advance (link)
i lost mine while running with a turtleneck long sleeve, and instead of rolling it over to make it smaller, keep it up and over your chin, and then get on a pullover sweatshirt and tie the hood up around your chin, then run.. when running move your chin up and down.. it burns the fat.. i dunno im not over weight but i had one and thats how i lost it.. it sounds complicated but it really isnt as hard as it sounds.

try it. good luckk

l0vee alwayss-
