about

My name is Devin Lindsey or Vinny as my sister calls me! I am 17 years old and go to Bethel Park High school. I loooove swimming along with dancing, singing, and playing softball. I also run varsity track with is alright i supose too.

My favorite colors are orange, pink, and blue. I love to be crazy and have a good time

I've had a job working for 15+ monthes so I can answer alot about that

and I know alot about relationships in general so I can be helpful with that sometimes

especially with parent child relationships

I am a very observant person and tend to know more and care about more than most my age

and I really believe in volunteering to help animals especially at shelters. Usually its not their fault that they have to live their and its usually horrible cercimstances that bring them there and I feel terrible that they can't speak for themselves and people are too caught up in spending like $500 on this cute little pure breed puppy from a breeder just into getting rich instead of giving one of these dogs another chance at life (there are usually a handful of dogs under a year old so the i want a puppy excuse doesn't work with me)

My baby is named Lainey Mae... we got her from a shelter about 2 hours away from us when she was 7 weeks old. she is now 2 years old and the center of our family. unfortunately someone was cruel enough to go down and drug up and shoot (but luckly not kill) most of the dogs plus rob the owner (just like someone did at the shelter where I volunteer) and its now shut down

advice

would low top air forces & really low socks look good with leggings and a mini ?

yes i dont see why not. personally i think flipflops look best with leggings but whatever floats your boat!

hey is there any way I can put on eyeliner so that it wont come off after a few minutes? I think I may have watery eyes or something but it all runs to the outer corners a few minutes after I put it on and i use a top quality one too (Rimmel London)

is there anything to help?
thankx luv
rach xxx

dont use a pencil (the come off easier)
what i use is covergirl crayon with an eraser thing on the end ($5) and it lasts all day perfect for me. accually sometimes i think it stays on too well lol

okay so i just now found out that i am a B instead of an A cup size... how can i get my mom to buy me new bras?? im shy about this whole changing into a woman thing.. so is there a way i could convince her to take me? cuz i mean she always rubs it into my face and acts like she is totally blank about the whole me being a B.. it makes me feel uncomfterble..

it took my mom a while to catch on too. basically i just went and got my normal brand and told her that it was fitting kinda small and i wanted to try several diffrent sizes. just try to be casual about it. like if you are out shopping just kinda mention it to her while you go past the bras or just ask for some money to go buy underwear and really get some bras.. either way its not the end of the world because your bra can grow with you to a point like by adjusting straps if you are so uncomfortable talk to your dad or a sibling about it.. they tend to be more understading

Okay so i am a 16year old female. and heres my situation. ive only gotten my period like 3-4 times in my life. and they havent been in consecutive months. the closest its ever been to consecutive was dec 2004 and january 2005. and the time after that was june 2005 then i didnt get it until my last period which was january 2006. my main question is...does my very irregular period mean that i am not ovulating like i should be and could it effect whether or not i will be able to have children when im older? dont get the wrong idea its not that i want a kid now or anything. but i do want a family in the future and this i just freaking me out. any advice/information anybody could give me will be much appreciated. thanks.

edit:: i dont think you need a gyno! going to your local pediatrician or whoever you see is just fine.. really you dont need anyone special unless then tell you you do!

i have the same thing. ussually you arent ovulating but sometimes you will! if you arent getting cramps and its not super heavy then you are not ovulating (trust me i have the same prob and my doc told me all that). if you dont get help there is a good chance you can't have kids. to fix this my doc is putting me on birth control (it regulates your period but doesnt regulate your ovulation as much)

most doctors will just watch you for a few monthes because if they dont have to they wont too anything in fear of damaging your cycle.. they will prob wait to see if you will reguluate by yourself

i'm a sophmore in high school and have been going out with my gf since september. we go to different schools but they are pretty close only like 20 minutes awayy. she said shae doesnt want me to talk to her friends from skool which is weird, cuz i actually introduced her to friends from my skool. her friends are never around or with us when we hang out but i've met them a few times. is it wrong for her to do that, tellm e i cant talk to her friends?

that sounds like a sign that she is ceating on you.. or something is up anyways.. if you wanna talk to her friends talk to them. she can't tell you what to do!

I can wear 32A or 32B, but most stores don't carry size 32, they usually start at 34. Does anyone know where I can get a nice push-up, cleavage-enhancing, curve-enhancing bra in size 32A or 32B for under $30? I've tried Target, Kohls, and Macy's, but I didn't find any I liked. and I'm pretty sure Victoria's Secret bras start at size 34. Any help would be much appreciated :)

really you need to go to victoria! thats they only place that has really good ones! what i would do is try a 34 AA it fits the same as a 32 A (that is what im told).. and also they can measure you there! and will find something that will work for you if your willing!

i'm currently changed my eating habbits. I now eat breakfast, pack my lunch (instead of eating the schools groce lunch), and for dinner i try to eat something kinda heatlhy.

ALso, on monday i startred the biggest loser dvd, it has a 6 week plan. Also i do the gazelle, lift weights(mialy legs now bc of the BL dvd), and I walk on the tread mill alot.

what are good choices for lunch & breakfast?

i usually, for breakfast, have like whole wheat cereal (yummy) or a bagel ( not heatlhy i know ) and kinda weird things.

for lunch i have like a sandwich w/turkey or chicken. sunships, nature valley bars, banana, yogurt, apple sause and other sorts of things

i would say you are doing good. just make sure for your dinner you are still getting all the food groups (like have a chicken salad or something) and for lunch accually lunch meat isnt that great, better than school lunch but you know... if you can use sliced like real chicken instead any if you can make it on like a low fat pita (lower in fat)

and most of all DONT WATCH CALORIES!

its doesnt more harm than good in our age group! watch fat and sugar instead!

What do you think is the average age to get your first kiss?

there isnt really an average.. i would say it can range anywhere from age 12 to about 18

i have been farting alot latley and i was wondering wat was causeing it....i rate high

it can be alot of things.. most likely either what you are eating or a change in diet.. also stress can cause it believe it or not!

hey! okay, i'm 15/f and i'm allowed to get my belly button pierced after our last cheerleading competition, which is around march 13. but, we are going to mexico for spring break on march 24, and i don't know if i should get it done before spring break or not. i want it when i'm laying on the beach and stuff but will the water in mexico and all the chlorine be bad for it? i don't know if i should get it done before or after mexico. any ideas? any info on belly button piercing would be great too!

i would say wait.. its not really bad for it but its def gonna burn and be painful to you. i would wait till after you get it none because you can trust mexicos water on it anyway.. it will greater your risk of infection

ok.. so i know this isnt good. but the other day i had a really low self-esteme and i took painkillers.. how many would like really harm me because im worried..

do you mean kill yourself or just not be good for you? taking any without pain or even with pain can be harmful to you no matter what

it really depends on what kind you take though.. i would say for most of them you would have to take atleast half of the bottle

i have 2 holes in by belly button ,it looks like i got it pierced but i didnt , i was just wondering what it was

edit:: ohh sorry i misread what you said. maybe you cut yourself or you got some sort of infection. either way i would do what i said.. and make sure you disinfect it!

what are the best acne solutions? like cleanser/toner/gels whatever works? please help with this.

well i use a mixture of nutragena face scrub and oxy pads and they usually do the trick for me!

ok so im getting braces this thursday but before that i need to make a decision whether to get the clear or colored ones. the clear ones are NOT invisilign just to let you know the clear ones are basically the same as the colored ecept they match the color of you teeth. now the thing is with the clear ones if you eat something like chocolate, your braces would turn brown which i dont really want to happen but they say it doesnt happen if you brush your teeth a lot (which i do) but like in school if i have like a chocalate bar or something i cant brush my teeth in school and the other thing is pratically all my friends have the colored ones and i really havent seen many people with the clear ones.
can someone help me figure out what to decide?
thank you so much
sorry its kind of long

so do you mean the bands or the accually braces? my friend i got clear braces and i think personally it looks really stupid... like you can still see them and the look weird

now getting the metal ones with the colored bands look alot better and the clear bands get discolored fast and dont clean well!

Last night I found out a friend of mine, whom I haven't really spoken to in awhile, has been diagnosed with cancer and might die. He's left college to live with his parents so he can get treatment and I'd like to write him a letter of support but what do I say? I don't want to make him uncomfortable and I don't want to be morbid, but I do want him to know that I care about him and wish him all the best.

just let him know that you are there for him whenever you need support even f you havent been there in a while and that you hope everything turns out fine for him and maybe tell him that if he needs money you would be more than happy to fun raise for him or lend him something

My sore throat is really bothering me and can anyone tell me what type of remedy works really well for a sore throat?

well if you have a vaporizer (a room mister thing) use it. also they make throat drops which are like cough drops and use a few of them. if you dont haev them use just a hard candy and suck on it instead. also you can try something like tea or a popsicle to soothe your throat

my ipods frozen in disk mode how do i get it out?
ps its a nano

what i do is i hold the menu botton and the middle button in together for about 20 seconds till it turns intself off. if you take it back thats like the only thing they will try before giving you a new one. if that doesnt work try putting it on your comp and delete all the songs and reput them on and see if anything changes... ive only had mine for 2 or 3 monthes and its frozen 4 times already!

Which you think is better Cathloic high schools or Public high schools and explain your reason why because i don't know if i want to go to a public high school because iam attending to a cathloic high school.

well i think it all depends on the schools and what not.. because some catholic highschools are better than others

but education wise i think public highschools are better and here is my reasoning:

my aunt used to student teach when she was in college and it happened to be at a catholic school. while working there she found out that that the teacher at the school who got paid the most barely made more than what her starting pay would be at the local public city school. with that info she decided to work at the city school because she was going to get payed more

with that said more teachers would prob want to get paid more so they would go to the public school over the catholic schools making the public schools have the better teachers and basically the catholic schools having the teachers that werent wanted as much

now as i said before it all depends on the area and what not. if the catholic school is rich then yeah i would go there because they would have just as good teachers most likely and prob. a slightly friendlier enviroment.

i would ask some of your friends and neighbors that go to public schools and see what they think about that school that you want to attend and then maybe take a tour of it then make a decision.

Ive noticed when people have switched to my public school from a catholic school they are much happier with all the freedoms they now have but its really all up to you

can someone please tell me what the difference is between credit and debit? thanks.

as far as i know credit is just like borrowing money on a card (credit card) and you pay it back at the end of the month w/interest

and a debit card you are basically using your own money from an account and it subtracts it from you when you purchase something

i pretty sure thats it.

I'm 13 and I way 113 pounds. I am not bib but I am not super skinny. I am very muscular. I run atleast a mile atleast 3 times a week and i do sit ups and other excercises every night but I can't seem to lose weight. Is this a bad weight? and does anyone know any good ways to lose weight 5-10 pounds?
