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

can someone help me get ideas to get more money for babysitting...thanks

like you mean make more or make more than babysitting

okay well to make more babysitting be certified in atleast babysitting and first aid.

also have more references and people other than relatives that can back up your work

and post flyers all through your town!

I read that if you eat breakfast everyday you will lose weight, is this true? If so, then how can I start eating breakfast without gaining weight because I have not been eating breakfast for a few years? This is so confusing! Please explain and help. Thank you so much.

yes it is true! b/c your motabolism starts speeding up when you start eating in the morning. it gets you going. but you ahve to be eating something good. like a donut isnt helping you but if you have a bowl of cerial it really helps! i saw that article (or a similar one) and it said cereal that was low sugar really helps you

Im 14/f, I have a little pouch of stubborn belly fat in my lower-ab region. I do about 300 crunches daily, and it doesnt seem to be working. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I could do besides running to make the pouch smaller? Im around 130 lbs, muscular, 14 female, and around 5'5"-5'6". Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thank you!

i think there inst more to do besides change the form of your crunches (it may not be right) or do pushups (if done correctly, your arms directly down from your shoulders it really works your stomach) at your age your any teenage age its hard to loose weight like that and really you just gotta keep with what you are doing. if youcan increase your workout

Do you think 5ft 4in and 140lbs is large (fat) for a 13 almost 14 year old? Especially one who is a dancer? So many different websites say so many different things I do not know who is right! Plus, my instuctor at my dance studio is stressing how in shape we need to be for the preformance and how we all need to be at slim weights so we will look "fabulous" on stage and in our costumes. So far I am the biggest girl in my 2 classes, whoop de do!

it really all depends. you arent raelly fat but you arent like super skinny. if you are dancing them im sure its mostly muscle. i mean im a dancer and im 5'0 and 120 pounds

Is it true that stomach ulcers can be caused by being stressed or worried too much? I was told this and I'm not sure if it's true.

yep! my mom got them from that. its alot more rare it teens but can still happen

Hey okay well i am wondering what are some things I could do to make my good features stand out and make me look prettier? I know a few things but what can I do with my face/hair/body, etc. I use makeup and I know how and all that. If it helps i am sorta pale, brown hair, and hazel eyes. Make-up tips i guess, etc. Just ways to "accent" my prettyness if you get what im saying. Sorry this is confusing but ill RATE! Thanks in advance!

b/c no one here really knows what you look like its hard to say. okay around with makeups and stuff esspecially shimmer stuff. and really make your eyes kinda heavy, it will take away from the rest of you especially your light skin. i believe its revlon that has special makeup for certain eye colors. if you send me a pic of you i would be more than happy to give you ideas

[view]

Are there coupons for stores online? Coupons that you can like cut out and bring to stores for discounts?

it depends on the store. some have the like in catologs that if you shop online put in this code and you get $5 off or whatever.but most stores do not

I am 14 and my mom won't let me wear thongs. My sister is 16 and still is not allowed to wear them. Alot of my firends wear them and some don't. Sure part of the reason I want them is because alot of people wear them but that not the whole reason. I don't want panty lines when I wear sweats of whatever. My mom has always been overprotected, she didn't let me or my sister wear a bikni until last summer. Last weekend I tried on a really cute bathing suit and all she did was say how it was to low and I need to wear something more modest or I will be sending the wronge message. She thinks if I wear a low bikni someone will come and rape me, to make a long story short she is inpossible to shop with. Anyway If I could get a thong it would make me feel that I beat my mom and won. Don't get me wrong I love my mom we don't have a bad relaship at all. It just she very religous and hard to talk to. Oh and even if I did buy a thong behind her back. I've never done my own laundry in my life so she defintly know something was up. Sorry that it was so long, guess I got carried away.

my mom finally let me where them when i started highschool. and i begged for years. well i wasnt suposed to wear them till highschool but she let me before it started because i got these raelly cute white capris and they were totally see through and you could even see the thong but it was better than "granny panties". find a occasion where you HAVE to wear them so she will see that you are okay with them. like get a dress for church or sometihing where you need to wear one.. and buy the way most are hand wash only so you dont have to be able to do laundry. convince her that times have changed any thats what people where and its okay


and tell her its a fact that being raped has nothing to do with what you wear or act.. its about control not sex. maybe have your friends that wear thongs talk her into it. if she sees all your friends wear them maybe she will feel better about it

i have big issues with my weight and would like to know from experienced poeple what the best way is to start dieting and what is the best diet to do?

well what i did was just changed my eating habbits. i totally got rid of pop and most junk food and ive been doing good. ive lost over 6 pounds in 2 weeks which is pretty good for someone with no self control.

i just went to the store and got low fat and sugar free snacks (dont watch calories they can be very decieving.. like fruit punch only has like 80 calories but has 22 grams of sugary which is atleast double of what you should have)

Help! Help! Help!

I used to have this boyfriend my parents hated to death. He moved all the way across the United States (I live in California) and emailed me his new phone number. While my parents were at a meeting, I called him and talked only like a minute since he had to go to a school event. Will his number show up on the phone bill? If so, my parents will see it and become suspicious, because we almost never call people out of state. I have a Panasonic phone with caller ID if it helps.
Can anyone give me any good excuses for when my parents round on me?

it will show up...
maybe you can tell them it was a telemarketer and you accidentally picked up the phone.
or you can say it was a girl from school you were friends with until she moved a way and you wanted to call and see how she was doing

When does the college baseball season start? Does anyone have a schedule for televised games (I love watching Texas)? If so, where can I find it?

well im not sure when texas starts but i can tell you the spring training already started b/c my cousin is a college pitcher. i believe the season starts around the time major league starts (like march-aprilish) but a little before. i would search the college online to see their exact starting

I was reading a magazine that said if you have more than about 10 hairs around your breast you may have Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome. I looked it up to see what it was, and I am now sort of concerned. I know i should talk to a doctor about it, but before I do does anyone who knows anything about this syndrome or about women's health know if having lots of hair around your nipple is almost deffinetly Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome?

well first you have to think about
1) your age.. the longer you ahve hairs there ussually the more you get and thicker they are
2) have you ever shaved them. the more you shave the more you get
3) your herritage.. some are more hairier than others.. like ussually italians have thicker hair

if none of those concern you then maybe you should read into it more before you talk to a doctor and if you are under 20 dont even worry about it. as you said its "womens health" and if you under that age you are still a young woman. if you are truely concerned ask a parent or a close friend that is older than you and see what they say
