Hey.
I'm a thirteen year old girl, who needs ideas of what to eat for breakfast. I don't usually have breakfast (i know its bad) cause I get sooo sick of just eating boring cereal.

What are some healthy recipes I can make in around 5 minutes. 10 mins would be the maximum time it could take to make.

Any recipes will be appreciated

Thanks :D (link)
hi!
so how has your breakfasts been lately?
sorry I was checking old questions and I found yours.
Here is what you can do:
get an elecrtic hand blender (it is long with a blade a the end that rotates when plugged)
and you can use it for everything !
get a plastic glass and fill it up with milk, your favorite fruits and add in some cereal, nuts, syrups, oatmeal etc (you can even add veggies)and blend everything !
its really quick because it is in the plastic glass that you will drink it with ! so you dont end up washing soo many things and it is really fast!
the experiments with different fruits are fun too! good luck! enjoy your breakfast boost!
ps
the electric hand blender is so useful, you can use it to make soups and sauces .........pus it is a neat way to sneak in some veggies in your food!


I dont care if this in the right thing or not I want to die. I was raped buy my boyfriend. I am only thirteen years old. And i don't want to have a baby and I don't want an abortion and I don't want adoption. But I want to grow up! I haven't done anything in my life yet. I want to try things and go to high school and everything i am only in 6th grade! Life hasn't even started yet! I told my mom but not that I was forced and I'm not telling her so don't even ask me too! I told her a week ago it has been three weeks into my pregnancy my mom won't talk to me. My dad is out of the picture. I'm not telling my boyfriend because I am done with him. I have nobody I can't even get a god damn doctors appointment. I just want to die! Their is no point of life anymore I'm going to be stuck with a kid that I don't even want! Please just somebody talk to
Me. I feel like I have no one. I just want someone to understand. And tell me what to do about my mom and if I should tell my boyfriend. Save me (link)
Take a deep breath!
dont worry....
ok you have to realize some basics here:
1) past is past. the is the present you have to take are of now and the FUTURE!
2)you have in you very a beautiful baby.
PLEASE TAKE CARE OF IT BECAUSE IT IS YOURS! ITS A GIFT!! serious! some people do so many stuff just to concieve- you are lucky and healthy! so stop worrying and-
3)eat healthy! eat for 2! eat your favorite stuff because your baby will benefit from what you eat! YOU WILL TAKE CARE OF YOUR SPECIAL BABY GIFT AND YOU WANT IT TO BE HEALTHY AND SMART AND YOU WILL BE SO HAPPY TRUST ME- WHEN YOU SEE IT!
4) Pray-ask for strength- ask your guardian angel to guide you- go talk to a priest in confession and ask him what to do..pray that your mom will stop being mad soon and take care of you..
5) Try to find a good doctor to guide you through your pregnancy. It will be fine!!
6) Do not worry anymore what people will say about you. Focus on the present!!!
7) leave your boyfriend whatever he says, he shouldve taken care not to get you pregnant- he is so selfish to force you to do things you dont like or you havent thought of teh consequences so he is not a good person- YOU DONT NEED BAD INFLUENCES around you right now.
8) Take Revenge by being a pretty pregnant girl and you will have a healthy beautiful baby and people will be so jealous that you are happy and your baby is happy and let them die of Jealousy !that is your revenge!

Ever since I was little I've had the worst experiences in church I was always badly judged because of my past mistakes and because my father made bad mistakes to I tried soo many churches but it was all the same. I've greatly improved and I've devoted my life to God and doing my best to please him but I get so scared I don't want to go near any churchs so I don't know what to really do. Anyone know what I can do? (link)
Go to a priest in conffession, he will be the best to tell you.

But remember, Jesus is a Just and merciful God.
He knows what you have been through and even what will be happening to you BEFORE it happens!!!
and He created you because he LOVES YOU DEarly! and he is so happy that you have dovoted your life to Him! well done!
He just wants us to be good and lead others to Him by being good examples to people around us.

Remember also, if the birds are taken cared of, what more YOU! he knows all the leaves in each tree, what more his creation, YOU!! he will take care of you and never leave you- after all, this life is temporary- the real life is the one after and that is the reward! to be with God in Heaven!
you will be alright I will pray for you! :)


17/F

Are there any jobs that I can get online so I don't have to leave my home? I'm extremely uncomfortable with leaving my home and I want to see if there's a job or career I can do that I can do at home. I can't really do mathematics or sciences, but I'm very good at writing. I hope there are jobs that take that requirement? I tried looking some up, but most of them asked that I send them forty five dollars or something, but I don't have that kind of cash and others I know are scams... (link)
Think about this:
what is the one single thing we all have in common?


We all have to eat!

yup! there will always be a need to eat.
so I suggest, find out what is not being offered around your neighborhod, find good recipes and develop pricing incuding packaging and be the master of it. and DELIVER!!
it can be an online thing- or send out flyers, am sure you have a telephone or a cell phone number where people can contact you.
it can be as simple as cookies or salads and meals! whatever you want to do.
Have a go at it, cook or bake, and deliver! This is something you can do all year round!
Good luck!


My sister is turning 24 next week and I want to get her something really special, because she's the older one and she's always buying me whatever I want and I want to give back to her. She's totally into reading and she has like the awesomest collection of books ever, LOVES writing, and she also sings. I'm telling you this so that you can have some idea what kind of a person she is. I have some money saved up but not too much :( I'm 14 btw, so suggest something that I can actually get. Thanks in advance (link)
Im in the same situation as you- I mthe younger sister...
I think she would like a nice pen, or get her a calligraphy pen , or a leather bound journal so she can write there..
you can also make a scrapbook of the fun you 2 have been all these years..
you can also get her a nice bookmark, the thin metal sheet with designs?
or ask your mom?
good luck!


Ok so the othernight at a baseball game I got to hang out with these guys I always have dreamed about hangin out with and well I actually got to the other night(: the boy jami he is one year older than me, me 15 him 16 almost 17 but like this boy came up to and started talkin and he goes "Why are you hanging out with her noone does" But he didnt sound serious and I do hang out with a lot of people. Then before I left I hugged my friends Nicole and Layla bye and he goes "Girl don't even expect to get a hug from me". Well I over react about everything so I was just wonderin do you think he really meant that or do you think he was just teasin like boys do kinda like boys will be boys? Cuz he is like a goofy person anyway so what do you think serious? or goffin around? Please help thanks(: -Madi (link)
Well, its cool that you finally were able to hang out with the guys you have dreamed about hangin out with... Didnt quite turn out like your dream, huh?!
ok, take it easy, let you in in a secret, guys just like attention just like we do, he is just teasing, and i bet he wanted a hug as well! my advice is keep on being sweet, and hang out with your true friends so you will be treated the way you deserve and just enjoy the friendships of your good friends.
Its alright to over react about everything, you are entitled to your own emotions, just keep cool and think very well before you say anything so no one gets hurt. remember you deserve to be treated like a princess! Good luck!


So, I've been having headaches every night, around the same times, I've tried drinking water but ir doesn't help much. Any ideas? (link)
ok well im not a doctor but I have had terrible headaches in the past. it can be anumber of things:
when our eyes are getting bad, we get headaches.
stress cause tension headaches.
junk food, preserved food or anything containing MSG (Monosodium glutamate) cause headaches. Check ingredients of food you take.
when we are hungry, we get headaches.
migraines are triggered by bright lights, noise etc.
try to figure out what you have been doing and you will beat the headaches in no time!
keep on drinking the water... you will be alright!


Well I made a very big mistake and I slept with one of my teachers at the university.he is married and he has one kid.I know where his house is.well I was trying to stop the sex so I didn't go to his office anymore and he kinda found out and he accused of me being a pervert girl that goes around to be with guys.(while this is actually the first time in my life sleeping with a married man).and he broke up with me!!!!and let me tell you though he didn't even help me a little bit when he wanted to give the grades last semester and i got an A my self!.now i am so pissed at him and i want to black mail him that if he doesn't give me a good grade this semester I will tell his wife about our relation ship.I know that what i did was wrong but he had no right to accuse me as a slut!!I mean this relation ship had nothing for me!!and I am mad as hell!!I need help!How do i black mail him?? (link)
Take a deep breath! get some tea or coffee...take it easy...
never make a decision at the height of your passion. You will definitely regret it.
focus your energies on making a decent grade for yourself... or change your course... There are no short cuts my dear, you have to earn everything in this life.
You have made 1 mistake and you should learn from this and stop making more wrong moves.
Life is tricky- you wouldnt want, someday, if you have your kids, this to happen to you... KARMA! think that it will all go around.. so fill the world with more good so good will go back to you, Promise? you will be alright!! dont obsess about it anymrore, He knows he is wrong. that will be in his conscience and it will ruin him someday. Let God do the revenge for you, He is more powerful and creative! you will be alright! :)

Ok I need advice does he really like me I thinke he does too but oh I'm so confused :( help me .....thank you love angie :) (link)
Hello Angie! haha your question/story sure is entertainingly long!
i think YOU know the answer:

well, listen to your good friends and just be cautious with your other class mates though...good luck! and enjoy the friendships dont get into anything serious because the fun is getting to know a lot of people too..this will help you also from getting hurt...and be true to yourself and it wil all work out fine. Have a good week! .....Relax, he definitely likes you!!:) cause if he didnt, he wont spend time and effort texting and other stuff ...


I rarely take vacation time off, because I feel like it's going to the waste :( Finally, I feel overwhelmed and decided to take a week off. Now, nobody can travel with me anywhere, and I feel like if to not take that time off afterall.

My question is, should I just get over my fear and travel alone? if so, where?

Or should I just work and wait until a vacation opportunity arises?

HELP, I'm sooo confused and feel bad that I can't enjoy life and travel cause I ain't got anyone to do it with :( (link)
a week is lot and i feel that it is going to be a well deserrved break!
remember, not being at the work place is relaxaition in itself. so even if youre at home and finally get yourself to do what you have wanted to do will be rewarding in the end! it can be a change to get to that hobby you wanted?
you can take a cooking class?
you can check out whats new in your neighborhood and write about it?or volunteer in an orphanage or the salvation army...(which will make you feel even more useful even on a holiday!)
now regarding travel-
its an adventure BUT you have to be prepared in a sense that-
1) get travel and health insurance
2) know the places to visit, the weather, the culture and customs etc. to maximize your time and really experience it!
3) get to know the sale rates of airlines too!
there are lots to research for you to have a relaxing yet fruitful learning experience abroad and to welcome whatever comes your way..
its still fun to have a friend with you (cause, who's gonna take YOUR photos!???)just kidding, but even if youre alone you will be fine....
have a good week!
so many to do


OK, I'm in high school and I don't have any friends, or a boyfriend.. and my family pretty much hates me and my mom and dad are convinced that I'm not gonna get anywhere in life. And they make sure to keep telling me that. So now I kinda breakdown everyday. Even for the stupidest things.. Like I start crying all the time. And I feel so.. incomplete. I sit down and try to study but I always feel like something is missing.. and I can't concentrate. Also, I'm always worrying about what others are saying about me.. (my class is FULL of bitchy snobby girls).. I think about it all the time. Like I literally spend half my day thinking about what they say about me and how mean they are to me.. And I keep wondering how I can make it better. Am I really just full of self pity or am I seriously losing my mind? (link)
take a deep breath-
you are not losing it!!
1) hormones may be affecting all this criticizing yourself because of the changes inside and out
2) people can be nasty and they really make you feel bad
3) maybe your parents are challenging you to step up and go find your passion or direction in life but it is the manner in which they say it that is negative
try to:
1) eat healthy and exercise (even jump rope) to get the energy and blood lowing
2) find a hobby to make you busy like photography or painting or sketching to keep you busy and get to find your talent (everyone has one)
3) appreciate / count your blessings, you are a very lucky girl and so many things to be thankful for-
4) focus your energy into helping others- be a man for others St Ignatious said. It is in serving others that we can have a sense of fulfillment and we feel better when we know that the people around us are better because of our help.
You will be alright! smile!! everyday is a wonderful gift and a chance from God for us to do good.


Hi,

I am 21 years old and I am looking for advice on careers that would fit my personality and interests. I guess the only way to go about this is to tell you about myself :)


I'm a person who loves to learn and understand things and how they came about whether it be a genre of music, a political group ,structures of organizations, or behavior/relationships. Anything
mostly, you name it. I also love to think and create things from scratch whether it be a baked good, a drawing, or just a unique idea that I can somehow bring to life.

I love working with people and ideas, where I can use my abilities to analyze and weigh pros and cons of a particular situation or scenario to realize an idea or goal. I enjoy taking action and envisioning and strategizing as well as conversing with others. I consider myself to be easy going/easy to work with and understanding of others. I enjoy working with diverse people who come from all walks of life. I have a natural bent for project oriented work where I can work within a team to have a greater impact while simultaneously still be allowed to be uniquely me. I am a high energy type of person, and to be honest, I thrive off of some form of chaos/intensity. I have a knack for observing and memorizing people, scenarios, names, and things of the like. I am also pretty good at making information connect from a variety of subjects. I want to experience and explore different cultures and populations and share my experiences and knowledge with others in hopes of them gaining something from it. Overall, I just want to give hope and inspiration to the average person :)

Thanks for reading

one thing just comes to mind reading about yourself... you will definitely be a wonderful TEACHER! what level, i am not quite sure, because teachers inspire, create things, and you like learning. A teacher works with a team (school) but her individuality shines in her specific class. It just depends if you like kids or if you want to teach adults or guide teens and be their role model. Teachers are well loved and shape minds to make the world better and that is your influence. good luck! :) and with the school year schedule you can still do a lot with your extra time!


okay i'm 12 and i need braces i went in today to get x-rays and the mold done btw the mold felt funni and i almost gaged but they said come back in on the 31st and we will put in spacers and imediatly i got scared. so my question is do spacers hurt when yo get them put in? (link)
dont worry! i had these before it will be fine, they are needed so the teeth will align properly! and your dentist will talk you through it so you will relax because if youre tense it will hurt more. so think of happy things and listen to your breaths while on the chair and it will be alright!
no pain no gain, you will look so good after this, think of that! )


Some History:
Hey I met my ex in July of last year and we were in a relationship for 6 months, on and off, until I just got really sick of him. It's not his fault because I lacked the confidence to be with him, since he's a very handsome boy [He's 19 now I think, I still don't see a man in him yet. I'm older than him by a couple of months]. And he knows about it because I've told him before we got serious about how I was, and how I don't have much self-confidence. We confront each other about problems that we have in our relationship, but whenever I talk to him about other girls that he talks to, he says he'll fix it, but it doesn't feel like anything changes, so I broke up with him. And this same issue just keeps coming up and we keep getting back together and breaking up. I wasn't attached to him, as he was to me, and I definitely felt a weight lifted off my shoulders each time we broke up, it was like each time we broke up the more weight was lifted off, i don't know. But he just kept asking me to get back with him. Anyway I've told him how I felt about him talking to other girls, and I found some texts on his phone; he was chatting with this girl whom she said I love you to him. I also checked his sent msgs to see if he said anything to lead her on, or if she had misunderstood and didn't know that he was in a relationship, this was a month or two into our relationship so I really doubt it. I brushed it off, because I didn't want to be a pain in the ass, and I had other things that were more important to do [What could be more important than a serious relationship right? School. lmao, yes I prioritize it before anything else. All-nighters are hard enough, I'd rather prioritize my stress too.]. But anyway, I really don't know how many times we broke up but it's been more than 6 months now since we've broken him. I feel like I really hate him and I don't understand why. I know that in my relationship with him, I didn't feel a sense of trust that I should give him. He was very confidential...about other people's stories especially his girl friends, and so I don't mind that but eventually it just got suspicious, that's when I decided to stop trying to trust him and every time we broke up the more I just wouldn't open up to him anymore, and he would keep trying to find ways to be with me and to talk to me or whatever. So we stopped talking to each other. Or rather, I stopped talking to him. I deleted him from facebook, because he was basically spamming my news feed. He doesn't directly do anything because he's a passive aggressive person, but I know when he's pointing fingers or talking about me. I didn't want to hear it so I deleted him. He messages me to talk to him, and so we had a long conversation...then I stopped talking to him after a while, he tried to add me as a friend on facebook again which I rejected. He wasn't a bad boyfriend, well the first few times we ate out he always paid, then I decided that I'll pay for my half because the truth is we're both college students and we don't have that money. Sometimes I'd pay the full bill for him and sometimes he'd pay the full bill for me. We watched movies together and were around each other a lot.

I want to be friends with him, but then I don't want to be friends with him. I'm perfectly fine without him in my life at all [even though that's impossible because we go to college together], but I feel bad for him because he wants to be my friend. I just don’t want to be a B****.I would've been friends with him a while ago if he didn't have such a cocky approach. He said "So, you feel like being friends again?" Sometimes I just want to punch/slap him and just say, "N**** IF YOU WANT TO FRIENDS THEN START BY SAYING HEY" because I want to leave things in the past but when he says that it indirectly brings it up. I feel like he'd annoy the hell out of me if we were friends. My friends don’t like him that much either, and his high school friend who studies together with us in the same college is happy for me that we’re not together because apparently he was a bad person in high school, and he really cautions me.

There is something holding you back. I dont understand but your mind knows better to avoid him and all... but your heart refuses to be hurt. maybe you dont want to totally let go of him because youre hoping that he will change? or you dont want to totally reject him because youre a nice person. Maybe its the fear of totally lofsing him.. But you will meet a totally cooler guy that is meant for you and will make you feel wonderful so dont mind this obstacle now and it will go..He will realize what a jerk he is and you will get your revenge by being the girl that got away! and he will regret it forever! you deserve only the best!! Good luck in College! :)


19/f

Im in love with a close mate that i have known for 8 years. i have told him how i felt and he has told me the same thing but we can never meet at the moment neither of us have the time and if i make time he is busy and when he is free im busy. he has also told me that he needs to sort his head out but i dunno how to take it or what to do? am i being blind and thats his way of saying i dont want to go there or is there really something worth waiting for? (link)
maybe you two should be better off as good mates. Dont worry- sometimes the good friend is much more treasured than a girlfriend that he can easily dump... i think he is just not ready yet for a relationship as you are, but as a good friend he doesnt want to hurt your feelings.
Take it easy and he might come to his senses soon but in the meantime, appreciate the friendship and enjoy your life, try to cheer up!


16/f, senior in high school, member of the marching band. Last year, there was a guy not to many people liked in the band, he had the most enormous ego and to me, that made him ugly inside and out. He even told me he wished I would stop breathing, from then on, I hated him. This year, however, he is the drum major and he is so nice. I don't know if he feels he has to because he is the leader of the band but he is also being nicer to me, I feel a little nicer to me than anyone else. Whenever we go from set to set, we do something called "the minus one" and he doesn't start the next set until everyone's doing the minus one, I don't do that, though and he doesn't care, like he lets me slide with things I don't want to do. He also follows me around on the field when we are marching and 80% of the time we are setting on our spots, he comes over to my section to see if we're okay and right. I am a woodwind player and he was a brass player, he should have been helping the brass but he was setting my section instead. I also seemed to have noticed when we are not doing run throughs and he is off the podium down on the field with us, he is near me an awful lot almost critiquing my marching ability. Do you think he is like this because he's the drum major or does he maybe have a thing for me? I don't see how he can be the biggest dousche bag and then change to a complete "charmer" after just a few months. (link)
Hello! Guys mature later than us girls (I know- silly!)but I suppose he was attracted to you before and just didnt know how to show it and this year he is changing his approach and really appreciates you more. Dont worry about it and keep being your wonderful self- be nice to everyone and just let things go along! it will be alright..
another option is to talk to him - like confront him - and get your answer? like straight on ask him whats the deal? if you can do that but, any which way you will be alright! :)
yup guys are definitely crazy- who knows whats going on in that head of theirs!


there is this boy i know given me a nick name ana its like a shotened of my name
also aked take a photo of me and he putted on his facebook. I just wondered this is sign of attractiob towards me? (link)
definitely! I have always believed that a guy will not waste time, energy , effort to anything if he were not interested! he is human too like you and you wouldnt waste time on anyone right? so it is attraction! he just wanted to see what your reaction would be...


Love is relationship or sex? (link)
when i was in grade school i had a notion that it was all equal.
when I got older I now realized that if i hung on to that belief, I will get hurt.
The most important is the Love, a relationship obviously involves love and yes, sex is better with the person you love,
You have to clarify this with the person youre in a relationhip with to be sure youre on the same level of understanding... and so no one gets hurt :)


i have dated my boyfriend for 4 years nown am 22f still a virgin, we both decide not to have sex till we are married. any time we re together the temptation keeps coming seriously i always fell like doing him too but we just want to keep to our promise and also am so afried of losing my virginity pls what should i do (link)
i am so proud of you 2 and you should- at all costs- avoid temptations and situations that might make you weak because you have been so strong all this time! it will be a waste to throw that away!
i know it has been challenging but think of the greater reward (wedding night AND the real reward in Heaven).
youre both lucky to have each other and the respect u have for each other will help pave a smooth relationship in the future.
in the mean time, keep each other busy in other activities that wont tempt you two!
good luck! :)


ok wat do u do wen your sister makesout with her bf right in front of u
i relly don't like her right now : ( (link)
talk about late reply- just saw your question and i can SO relate!
its totally disgusting cause this happened to me- i can hear my sis from the other room and its yucky! and you kinda loose the way you used to see your sister, but hey its her life and we can only do so much as to let her know that you know what she has been doing.
it will take forever to get the image or voices out of your head so i suggest just keep busy, be good and pray for her so she will have the decency and not do it again.
