about

Hey! First off, i'm going to start by saying I came here on this site to give people advice. Some people actually don't know the real meaning of advice. They think its the answers they want to hear. But i'm not here for that. I'll give you advice, and it might be something you don't want to hear. But deal with it! You may take my advice or not, its completely up to you and you are not gaurnteed a correct solution.

Ok so now that's clear, I'll talk to you more about myself. Hence the username... I play volleyball. It is my passion and basically my life since I've played for about 7 years. Most of my friends say i'm 50/50 tomboy and girly girl. I LOVE sports!! I play volleyball all year round, and then I go to the park during free times to play some soccer, football, hockey, basketball or baseball with my friends. But then again, I could be inside trying on my new Sephora makeup i'd just gotten, or reading the latest Seventeen magazine or even arranging my clothes for school tomorrow.

You can ask me just about anything and i'll be happy to answer it. You can count on a full and detailed answer.

Oh and another thing... I love getting feedback! Even if its a negative comment. It tells me what I need to work on or even what I did correct.

BODY EXERCISES AND WORKOUTS! my way or the highway

advice

well the school year is about to start up and so that also means that sports are too! i'm gonna be a sophmore and i play volleyball and i'm really excited and nervous about tryouts. is there any kind of things i can do before try outs to kind of calm myself down and give myself reassurance talks that i know i can do it and stuff. because i'm so scared that i'm almost set on that i'll be on a lower team than my friends. i think i really need a selfconfidence boost but i'm scared of having one and then not making the team. HELP! haha thanks!

Sometimes the same thing happens to me. I play travel volleyball and whenever i go to my tryouts, I know i am really good and will make a great team. But then I some how end up all nervous. What I do is before tryouts is listen to alot of loud music. Music that makes me pumped up! Then when i get there, I want to show off my skills and I try my best. Also what helps is if you dont think of it as a tryout, just think of it as a camp, or a practice session. Try your best. Remember to have a great attidtude, hustle and have fun! Most coaches like that about the players. Make sure if you make a mistake, just forget about it and try again and tell yourself " I am gonna get the next one!"

I hope I helped and all goes well at your tryouts!

you see i have been insulted and ridculed since grade five so much that i find it relly relly hard to talk to new people can anyone help me.

Next time somebody insults you, just ignore them and proove them wrong. Try to talk to new people that dont hang around the other people that make fun of you. ((does that make sense?))

I hope I helped!

Is it true if you add celery or aspargus to your diet, you will loose weight? They say it does because it takes more calories to digest the celery than to eat it. Only answer if you know for sure, please.

My Aunt and Uncle are doctors, and I asked them and they said it does help you lose fat. My aunt says that if you go on a celery and aspargus diet you will lose fat but if you eat celery along with other foods, it wont change anything.

Hey! So I am having a birthday in October and I wanted to do something outside of my house. turning 14/cali/f. If anyone can think of anything to do for birthdays in hollywood, that would be perfect but anything else besides things like bowling, or movies would help. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!

Hey, I dont live in California, so I really dont know the temperature in October. I live more up north! But if its really sunny and warm, you could go out to the lake, and go on a boat. Or maybe swimming. What my friend did was go on a picnic. And my other friend when camping. If your birthday is close to halloween, you could do a halloween party but make it outside or go to a salon or maybe go shopping! Just be creative!
I hope I helped and Happy early Birthday!

Hi well... I go to my friends houses a lot during the weekends! Or a couple days at a time! But when I get back my parents are all over me! Like... why did I call them call them, did I miss them?? Its not that I didn't miss them! I was having so much fun!!! There was no time to to miss them! And the calling them on the phone thing... when i leave I ask them if they want me to call them! The go no thats ok only call if its an emergency! So do they expect a emergency every time I go to a friends?? Its not like i'm in elementary anymore! I don't need to call them to say good night!! How the heck should I handel this?? Its so annoying!!!

Age 13

Tell your parents that you are 13 and you think you are a responsible person. If your parents ask you if you missed them, were you gone for a long time? sometimes parents often ask that question because they are worried about their kids and just want them to be safe. Tell them there is nothing to be worried about, and you can tell them what you are doing at your friends house. That will probably keep them detailed and might stop asking you if you missed them or why you called them. The reason why they say "call for an emergency" is because they just want you to be safe, and if there ever is an emergency, they want to be the 1st people to help.

I hope I helped with your conflict!

okay so im in drivers ed and im 16. there is another girl in there who is 14. she always starts talking to me randomly and she asked for my number so we could go to the beach today. i didnt want to, but i gave it to her, because what am i suposed to do, say no? so she called 5 times and left a message and i never picked up. now im freaked out she thinks were like, best friends. i dont even want to hang out with her! what should i do?

you can try to talk to her and tell her you are my friend, but I am always busy and i dont have time to hang out with you. Dont be too mean, or she'll be upset. Tell her in a nice way ((even if you dont like her)) and just tell her you want to be friends. Even if you dont want to be friends with her, tell her that because she will understand and wont always be around you.

I hope I helped and all goes well!

Okay, Well.. i am wanting to go to this festival.. and i`m going with my best friend nikki shes a year older then me. i`m just a little scared to go though.. but i really want to go.. because festivals are so much fun. but the problem is; i don't really have many friends from what happend in 8th grade.. and mostly everybody hates me.. and i am just afraid that everybody is going to gain up on me.. like the other time i went to this festival.. almost everybody was saying stuff to me like eww sarahh... or like having ppl come up to me and just saying all this stuff. what should i do..? i need help. so please. thanks

Think to yourself, what do you care more about. Going to this festival and having a great time but still being worried. OR staying at home doing nothing and wishing you were there at that festival. Its your choice if you go or not. I think you should go, so you can have a good time, if people start making fun of you and saying stuff, just ignore them and have fun!

I hope I helped with your decion!

I am wanting a sugar glider really really bad i love animals ive did reasearch and everything on them i dont know how to conince my mom to let me get one and im paying and everthing wat can i do. Oh and im 13 so if that helps i feel responsible enough but ive never had a pet so can anyone give suggestions on how to covince her. thankzzz

Maybe if you print out a copy of Information of the Sugar glider, your mom will understand better. heres a site: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sugar_Glider
talk to your mom and tell her, you are 13 years old and you want this, and she should trust you to be able to handle this. also remember to tell her that you think you are old enough to handle this kind of resposiblity.

I hope I helped!
Good luck!

I drew something that I'd like to go on the back of my iPod. I don't want it to get ruined by anything. So how can I get it laminated? And would super glue keep it on there?

I don't know how to do this. Is there any other way to get it on there?

you can try buying a laminator and super gluing in on your ipod, or maybe taping it on?
I found a site where you could buy a laminator that has this anti-jamming thing so it wont get stuck or ruined. Its 92.87$

i feel like i have no friends :[ like i know i have one good friend, but i feel like that isn't enough. during the school year i felt like i had lots of friends. but now that its summer i feel like i have none. nobody ever calls me to hangout. so i end up hanging out with the same two people all the time. but like my one friend isn't friends with my other friend so we can't hang out together. but i also feel like my one friend is using me. like we could hang out like 3 times a week, and she still won't put me on her myspace top 12 (i know that sounds stupid but she puts people that she doesn't even like on their instead of me). what do i do? i have 1 other good friend but she ditched me to become more popular. then my other two friends never call me. i know your probably saying call them, but like i'll IM them saying we should hang out and they just go yeah i'll call you. and then they never do.

help! i get so depressed sometimes.

I have been throught this many times,
During the school year I feel like I had soo many friends, and now nobody does anything with me. Sometimes its just because its summer and people are on vacation or if not that, they could be busy with something else. I always call my friends if I want to do something with them. I think you should convince your friends to hang out with you by calling them, if they still dont want to hang out with you, maybe you need to find new friends.

15/f Hi. I was wondering if any of you guys have any suggestions for after school jobs. I really need the money to save up to buy a car when I am 16 (about 6-7 months)
I'll be starting school in a few weeks and I want to plan ahead, maybe even start in the end of the summer.
The only problem is that I am 15.
Any good ideas? As many as possible would be great.

You could Mow Lawns, have a garage sale, have a Car Wash, Voulenteer to babysit, voulenteer to Pet Sit ((babysit pets)), clean a neighbors house, hair salons , cafes , fast food places, shops , bakers or a kids play center. Present a Talent show/play and charge an admission.

Well, I'm home alone alot, with my brother thats only ten, and i need to learn how to defend myself. but i can't take classes because my mom won't have enough time to take me. so, this is my question, can i learn to defend myself at home, with like a knife or something?

thanks in advance♥

you COULD try with a knife, but I would do something thats safer for you, (so you dont cut yourself of something like that). Maybe try hiring a self-defence teacher and instead of you
going to classes, make the classes come to you. Do you have a big area in your house to practice? Search on the Internet Self-Defence coaches and find one. I bet you can work something out!

I always do stuff with the same two people. Their my best friends but I want to do stuff with other people. I just find it hard. When ever I call my friends from school they have something going on. I also have like no social life. I'm sixteen years old (female) and I've never been to a party (like a high school party). I really want to be more social..please help.

Try talking to other people. Join activities that you have in commen with. you can meet new people there that have things in commen with you. Dont be somebody else, and trying to fit in with the wrong groups of people. Be yourself and show off your talents. More people will reconize you.

I hope I helped!

I found a few sites to help you:

I heard that putting Milk, Honey, or Bottled water in your hair helps. You rub milk on your scalp, let it soak in. This will give a lot of protein to you hair. After this wash, rinse hair with cold water, your hair with be shiny and smooth.

Ok so i really wanted to go to this really good, expensive private high school for years now and my friend that just moved away is going there, but my best friend isn't going there. I don't really want to wear a uniform and i kind of want to go to a public school because if i went to a religious school would there be any relationships? I'm so confused!

All that matters in High School is Education! Its ok if you have to wear a uniform to get a really good education. And you can get relationships when you graduate or when there's time. I suggest you go! But its still your choice. Even if your best friend isnt going, you can make new friends and still keep the old ones!

I hope I helped with your decision!
