I'm having trouble falling asleep. Does anyone now anything that could help me fall asleep easier and faster? (link)
one thing i gotta say is that counting sheep doesn NOT help. you want to get into one position and stay that way as long as you can. make sure you're comfortable, and lots of times having a fan or some music going helps lul you to sleep. whatever you do, never think about sleep while you're in bed, it just postpones it.... breath slowly, and just wait for it to come.

I am learning to play the drums... is there anyway i could play All my life by KC and JOJO on the drums? (link)
there probably is some way that someone has figured out. you can probably find out on the internet (go to google or something) or you can go to a music store and ask an employee if they know where you can find it.


one of my really good friends (shes 14) has been having sex with this one guy for over a year now. she used to be going out with the guy, and not she's not, but she's still having sex with him. she's been hurt before because of this guy, and i just don't want her to get hurt again or get into a bad situation. she has b.c. but sometimes forgets to take it and doesn't read the instructions on how to make up for lost pills. i don't want her to mess up her life at such a young age. any advice on the topic would be great. thx. (link)
you have to tell her. just walk up and tell her. she has to know that you care. and if you care enough about her (you do, otherwise you wouldn't ask this question) you'll do something about it. even if you have to "tell on her" she might be mad at you for a little while, but she'll forgive you. she'll be happy someday (if she stops) that you talked to her, and asked her to stop. tell her parents, tell a teacher, anyone who will do something to help her stop.

Look no further, this is real.

I express the way I feel.

I am proud that I am me.

I am what I want to be.

I feel used; I feel alone.

I feel upset; I want to groan.

I feel hurt; I feel deprived.

I feel angry; I hate lies.

I feel hunger; I feel pain.

I feel like I have gone insane.

I feel happy, I’m all smiles.

At least for just a little while,

I put my true feelings away

To face another lonely day.

you probably don't want to do that. keeping your real feelings bottled up often leads to depression and even suicide. just let it out sometimes. let people see what you're really made of even if you don't want to. you can't stay falsely happy for the rest of your life. even if you just tell one friend about how you really feel, you can lean on their support, and even if it takes a long time, you'll be able to heal.

so my good friend jack is going out w/ my x-girlfriend and they are IN LOVE. well me and his gf Liz are still good friends and we always tell each other that we look good if we do. well yesturday @ my bday party i texted her saying she looked really good....cuz she did. well Jack read that text and now hes really mad @ me. but he knows thats how we are so i dont see why hes mad. someone help! please!

*text guy* (link)
lemme get this straight. jack has TWO girlfrinds? isn't one enough for him? (you should tell him that). just tell him outright that you guys are just good friends and don't really want to go out (do you?) he might not believe you, but there's not much else you can do, and he'll figure it out sometime.

I'm 15 n my bf's 17.Earlier we used to speak about a lot of topics but now we feel at a loss of words.We simply don't know what to speak about.Could u please give me some topics to speak about?(Besides school)
-Butterfly004 (link)
aight. first you want to talk about him. talk about what he likes to do, his family, his friends, ect. then turn it to you and him: stuff you have in common, things you like to do together, funny memories, ect... then swing the conversation around to you and keep it there until you think of something else to talk about.

Ok, I really like this guy Dillon and I also like his friend Drew but Drew told me he likes me too but has a girlfriend. Dillon on the other hand is single and I dont know if he likes me too but Dillon and I broke up earlier in the year I still love him and I want to tell him but I like Drew too. Wut do I do? (link)
well, since drew already has a girlfriend, i think you should try your luck with dillon. if you still like him, you should just tell him and see what happens. if he says no, your pride might be hurt for a bit, but you'll get over it (seriously). if he says yes, no harm done. It matters how old you are, but if you're in middle of high school, chances are, drew will probably break up with his girlfriend over time, especcially if he likes you anyway.
hope i helped!

you can probably make it work with a regular hair dye. don't over load it though, and let it set for a few mintues before you wash. you'll have to keep dyeing though, even the permanent stuff comes out after 4 or 5 months.

hey!..im 16 female..i got a note that i wrote to my ex bf and i dont know if i should send it or not...it also feels like im stalkin him..if im wonder what hes doing or something..is that stalkin him or what? (link)
if you think he still might have feelings or you... go ahead and send it... see what happens. he might think you're stalking. you might think you're stalking. everybody else might think you're stalking, but nothing's going to happen unless you send it.
you obviously still have feelings for him, and want to figure out if he still has them for you, right? so, send it. there's nothing to lose except a moment's pride, and everything to gain if he says he still likes you.

ok im almost 15 and i only have a 34A... i hate it. I heard that if you sleep with no bra on at night your boobs will grow faster because the bra isnt there... but i dont know... and i also herad that moving your arms in circular motion everyday will also increase the size... my mom has big boobs.. why cant i!!!!? (link)
there is absolutely nothing you can do to make them grow faster natrually (plastic surgry)
all your pubic growing is controled by something in your brain called the pitutary gland, and there's nothing you can do to hurry it up... your body works at its own pace. i'm sure you'll be happy with them in time.

oh there's lots of places, a really good one is www.poetry.com, www.americanpoetssociety.com, www.poetypoem.com, and www.voicesnet.com.
you can get your stuff published online, and if it's good enough, they'll bublish it in anthologies.

hi i need some advice or help on smoking it is a topic i have to write about at work can you help? (link)
oh, there's tons of stuff about smoking. are you talking about marijuana? cocaine? or just nicotine?
lemme see.... after a year of smoking a pack a day, you have 1 quart of tar in your lungs, not to mention really stained teeth.
you can get luekoplakia (sp?) and it's this white fungus stuff that grows in your bronchial tubes and your gums...
there's over 2000 chemicals in every cigarette (arsenic, nicotine, and a whole bunch more)
the filtered cigarettes don't help very much, and they don't help secondhand smokers at all.

hi..i got a bf but he got another gurl friend what should i do? i wana break up with him and hope he could accept it easily.what should i say to him? even i wana break up,but i still wana be friend with him forever (link)
your boyfriend has 2 girlfriends? somethings wrong with that. you should tell him that he should only have one, and that he needs to choose. you might want to break up with him for a little bit. if he takes it hard, it's his own fault for going out with 2 girls at the same time. it just doesn't work that way. but if you're really considerate of his feelings, sit him down and talk to him about it. tell him how you feel about it, and what you think should be done.

How exactly do you french kiss?
(link)
exactly? well, it's not really a proffession is it?
a definition is: you slowly/quickly move your tongue into your partners mouth.

sounds gross, but that's how it's done. you can, uh, move it around, and, yeah, that's about it, really.

Ok, I think i have an eating problem but i`m not sure. I have a tremendouse fear of gaining weight and i honestly can`t help it. I`m starting modeling soon and so I feel like I HAVE to look thin. I`m not eating period and my friend`s are starting to notice so when they make me eat I throw it up. My boyfriend says he`ll quit doing drug`s if i start eating again wich mean`s the world to me but everytime i start eating again I start crying in fear of gaining weight and throw it up then feel terrible. I don`t think i have an "eating disorder" but it`s kind of hard to tell when all of your friend`s are "concerened" that your loosing weight and your starting to look "sick". They say i`m starting to look to skinny, I have bag`s under my eye`s, and i`m getting pale. I can`t eat properly it`s just to hard. I`ve been extreamly depressed latley. Do I have an eating disorer? Someone help me please !!

Signed
A cry for help (link)
yes, you do have an eating disorder, but something CAN be done about it. you want to start small. eat a couple carrots more than you usually would. slip in a few celery sticks for breakfast, and DON'T THINK ABOUT IT! you really need to eat stuff to keep healthy. you shouldn't be scared of gaining weight, you should be scared to losing too much. if you're going into modeling, chances are big that you are already really skinny. you don't need to get any thinner!! pleasepleaseplease eat something right now! go into your kitchen and make a sandwhich! the best way to eat it, is to not think about it. watch TV, read a book, or talk to someone while you're eating. it'll take your mind off of gaining weight.

What would you do you do if you were in love with a guy and he didn't like you back? (link)
if he really doesn't like you and you know it, you might want to keep it to yourself. but maybe you should give out a few hints every now and then, let him know you like him. and hey, maybe something will happen!

How do you get ur hair to look wavey and a little curly with gel or other products...when I try it with gel it just makes spiral curls and I don't like it!! =/ (link)
first you want to part your hair, and bput mousse on both sides... then put in two tight braids over night (try putting them up in buns... that often helps) and let it down loosely the next morning.
