about

heyy i'm andrea i was born in New York and i've lived there all my life. and yes i am very short but proud:-P i love singing acting and swimming, the sport of my life. i also like listening to music...rap, pop, rock, r&b, and country or whatever is on the radio. my friends and my family are the most important poeple to me and i love them soso much especially my younger sister Ashley(this was orginally her advice column but she gave it to me shes such a sweetie!)
i always try to give good advice and im usually very honest, which doesnt help my rating but thats ok lol;-) usually im very out going and loveable, unless im in a bad mood...but ask me whatever you want and ill try and answer it as best as i can i lovve getting stuff in my inbox:-) love ya's ♥

advice

im in a junior cheerleading squad (we do both pom and cheer) and i want to try out for pom next yr for my first yr of highschool i am one of the most unflexible people i no...but i can do most jumps..i cannot do splits...heelstreches scorpians.....will i make it and is ther any way to stretch out??? i hate the thing bout my spellin so0o dont reply about my spelling ill rate u very low!! k thnx!

just do streches everyday, once in the morning and once at night. like spread your legs out and reach down, put one leg in one leg out and reach to your leg, the butterfly strech, etc. whatever stretches you out. i would also suggest measuring your splits every month. you do a split and measure how far your butt is from the ground. the less inches, the better. you should do this for all 3 splits, right split(the split when you have your right leg in front) left split, and center. this way you can see your progress. another good practice is to hold your splits(once again, all three)for a minute. when you do splits just remember to relax and take deeep breathes.
good luck:-)

My Eye Is Swollen. And The Bone Is Hurtin Under My Eye. I Don't No WHat Could Be Wrong I Havnt Got Hit In The Face Or Anything But IT Hurts I Can't Hardly See And It Hurts For Me To Touch My Eye Or Eyebrow..What Could Be Wrong?..

Its sounds serious, you should call your doctor. its probably an allergic reaction or infection though. you should try rinsing it if you havnt already
hope it gets better:-)

School started 4 days ago or me, and today I just got my period. I'm s freshman, and it just seems like everything is so STRESSFUL for me! I'm nervous about tomorrow and I have no clue why! Could you period be linked to stressing you out? I'm never really grouchy before/during my period, just crampy.

14/f

starting as a freshman is really hard...usually everyone is very stressed. no i dont think its because of your period if your usually not stressed by it. to take away the stress do something relaxing like yoga, or something that takes your mind off of it. just hang in there and you'll be fine, everyone else is going through it too:-)

I am about 5'5 and weigh about 110 lbs. I plan to eat special k for breakfast everyday and drink plenty of water throughout the day and ocassionaly a diet coke and red bull. If I do this for 3 weeks how much weight do you think I could lose if I also lift weights and do crunches plus run 10-15 minutes a day?

well it sounds like your very thin to begin with, so i think youll be like 103-105 pounds after 3 weeks. i know it doesnt sound like that much, but you are already very light and dont have that much weight to lose!but you will build a lot of muscle by lifting weights and running(keep in mind muscle is heavier than fat). so even if you only lose 5 pounds, you'll look really great.
good luck;-)

what does baller mean. like im a beller baby! lol

go to
http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Balla
it has a lot of defintions

mmm k well since evry one was mean and dident awnser my last thing ill make a new one. ok i have to go to a new school right? does any one have sugestions of how to make friends. and if any 1 on here goes to renolds thats the school i got to go to so if u got any sugestions please say so... no serously if no one awsers me im gunna cry...

hey im sry that you have to go through going to a new school- i know it seems hard. the easiest way to make new friends it to just say hi. ask quistions about the area or about the person, whatever you can think of. just relax and be outgoing and youll make friends just like that. if your nice they cant have anything against you! just rememeber to talk a lot(but still listen to other poeple)
if your a shy person it may sound hard, buts its actually really easy and it'll just get easier.
good luck you can do it

I've told 3 guys that i would have sex with them sometime in high shcool, and i feel like kind of a whore. I know that a lot of people have sex and everything but i feel like it would kind of be a slutty thing to do. What do you think?

ermm...yes im sry but it is. if you really wanna have sex just do it with your boyfriend, you dont need 3 guys! since you havent done it yet, you can always change your mind. dont let them pressure you!
if you dont wanna be a whore, then your gunna regret doing it!! hope it helped an pleez make the right choice

okay well.. i have my period but i dont carry a purse beacuse im like the tomboy type and everyone would make a big deal if i do.. so what can i do to carry tampons without have to use a purse and dont say pockets please!! what do i do if i get it during school? how long can you keep a tampon in for? and i have a gym bag should i put them in there and go to the bathroom after ? beacuse that would be like. 5 1/2 hours is that too long? if so what else can i do to hide them? isnt tss if you leave it in for more then 10 hours? i need help and fast! i rate 5's help me please!!

if your a tomboy then maybe wear a hoodie with a pocket in the front, or go to your locker before.also they usually sell tampons for 25-50 cents in bathrooms. you can keep tampons in for 4-8 hours, but you shouldnt go over 6. so 5 1/2 is fine, as long as the tampon has the right absorbancy for you(dont wear heavey tampons if you dont need them, you could risk getting tss that way)
but remember that tss is really rare so if you leave it in for a long time its prolly gunna be ok.
if your worried someone will see it, use tampax compact, their so small you cant see it if you squeezed it in your hand.
hope it helped

okay well theres this guy i like alot and i mean alot !! he is like perfect.. anyways.. is four years alot or distance or no? i rate high !!! easy 5's guys!

Has anyone else ever had salsa with creamcheese?? Like you mix it togeather????

No gay answers or i will rate 1's.

~Melissa~

yeah its really good!! the thing a love about it is that i hate hot foods so the cream cheese made it soo much milder but you could still taste some of it...you should definatly try it

how much should i charge for washng people's cars. i dont wanna charge to much but i dont wanna wash an expedition for a quater.

maybe small cars $3 and large cars $4 thats what the average was when i looked it up.

this is'nt a random wirdo but i could,nt find anything in this area. im a 13m and i have a little problem. my friends keep laughing at me about my eyebows. and i dont know what to do, ya see if i pulk my eyebows im a fag but if i dont do anything, im a freak, so how can i get rid of my bushy unabrow without being judged.

yeah they arent really great friends.a lot of guys have bushy eyebrows and i dont think its a big deal, ur not a freak...if your friends make fun of you, their the "fags" because their the ones making a big deal about it.

but if your really insecure about it, just pluck a few hairs underneath your eyebrow, but not from your eyebrow itself, since your a guy.

good luck and hope it helped!!!

does any body want to be my diet buddy? if you are on a diet then we can do it together and stuff. so we IM eachother when were bored, etc. also, we can give eachother tips and stuff. itll be fun and helpful. dont think im a weirdo, my friends just dont think i need to b on a diet, but i just dont want to GET heavy. so yea. lol. k later babes

what are some good scary movies?

The Grudge is really good
If you ever saw The Ring i would suggest Ringu which is the orginal Japeniese version. They speak in Japeniese but it has english subtitles.

or Boogeyman and The Skeleton Key

"It" is an old but scary movie after i saw it i was terrified of clowns lol

Soooo heres my question....

Well, some of the ppl i talk to on AIM have a program installed on there computer called tizzle talk.

I downloaded it a couple times but i took it off shortly after cause im afriad that it will put a virus on my computer or infect it in some way.

I was woundering if anyone has heard of this program and if anyone knows if it is safe to use on yur computer.

Thanks a lot!

ughhh i downloaded it and it ruined my computer it is soo slow now. if you have a really nice computer which usually doesnt get viruses, go ahead(but keep in mind that you probably will get rid of it soon, its soo annoying after a while.)if you have an old computer you shouldnt it will screw it up so bad.

i have been cutting since 5th grade, im going into 9th now. I don't want to stop because i love the way it feels, and its the only thing that helps me to forget the things i dont want to have to remember anymore. Ive tried stopping before but i physically can not do it. Im so attached to it. But, i cant get caught anymore, and i hate the scars i have all over my body. can anyone help me..?

yes you should definatly go to a therapasist or counsiler.
i used to cut too, so i tried getting more involved in sports. i started to take the pain out when i ran(by running long distances without stopping) It took my mind off of cutting, and i stopped.

good luck i know you can do it:-)

ok so i have a boyfriend that i've been with for about 6 months now. im 16, my boyfriend is turning 19 in september And about four months into the relationship, i got raped by his older brother and now his family is blaming me and telling ppl it wasnt raped so now im questioning myself if it was rape or not. and then the cops got involved because my boyfriend called the cops since i told him what happened when i slept over. so when the cops were investigating, they found out that me and my boyfriend have been having sex as well. so now me & andrew arent even allowed to see each other legally and im just wondering if i should stay with him after all this happening, we want to have kids in the future and he even asked me to marry him...is this a good idea?

you love him and he loves you. of course! yeah you should wait a while until its legal(or not) but dont let that seperate you!

Hey..I just wanted to know if anyone knew any websites where u could download free music and is it safe.Like can u get viruses with it? Thankss.Because i had kazaa but then like 3 weeks ago my computer froze everytime and i had to get it fixed. So please tell me some good websites yall might know.
I rate high too!

Hello*

Well, here's my question...(this might sound like a dumb,slow,or whatever u wanna call it question.) But how can u figure out if your really in love with a person.(boy,in my case). I have this boyfriend and i think i'm falling in love with him (sorry if this sounds corny).He's so sweet.And i can't stop thinking about him.Please tell me.

Brenda***

do you look forward to seeing him? do you try and look extra nice when you know you'll see him? just listen to your heart. but if you cant stop thinking about him, yeah i think you got bitten by the love bug. good luck;-)
