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

does anyone here know where to buy the backpacks with strings for straps? they are kind of small, so can anyone list stores they can be found at?

p.s.

im looking for somthing that doesint look absolutly hidiouse for middle school...lol... thx!

well if you go to jansports web site or any store that sells like shoes and football jerseys (dicks, champs, finish line) they have them.. they are called drawstring bags.. at those kind of stores they only have solid colors and maybe sports teams. nothing gurly. if you want a more gurly one i recomend just searching it online at like yahoo or something

just courious,approximatly how long is beauty sleep supposed to last ? ;p,thanks
*rates to 5*

now are you saying a nap or a night of sleep

teens are supose to get atleast 9.25 hours of sleep night. but can still be fully fuctional with atleast 7

as for a nap to get the best effect you should only nap for 20 mins because if you rest longer than that you end of tired after that.. i watched a whole video on sleeping and naps in school last week and they said that naps should only be 20 min b/c your brain is still getting the rest in needs to feel refreshed but then you arent as tired when you wake up. its called a power nap

i have a ipod nano and i was wondering if i put lyrics into my ipod, would it take up space?

yes.. and it depends on how long the lyrics are and what kind of file you are using.. they take up less space than songs.. i would say maybe a half to a third of how much space a song takes up.. i have a nano and i am very familiar with size and space of files on there but ive never added lyrics

okay i decided to shave 'down there' instead of trimming it and now i have little red bumps down there. how can i get rid of them and if i shave down there again are they going to come back?

okay i have several solutions to your problem!

1. use condition instead of shaving cream
2. don't use a new razor
3. dont use lotion on it afterwards esspecially if you have senstive skin because it can make is worse (if you know your skin isnt sensitive at all then go for it)
4. dont shave done there again till the bumps go away
5. if you can wax it instead the bumps wont come back
6. if you can dont shave more than every other day. it will help your skin from getting irritated
7. and if you havent shaved a certain area before it will be hard to prevent bumps.. like a i know the first few times i shaved i got them
8. make sure your skin isnt dry.. like if you swim every other day shave on the days you dont swim.
9. anything that you use that has scents (shaving cream, lotion, soap) if you can get the scentless version.. it causes less irritation

are there any products that have been found to be both safe and
effective in treating excessive underarm perspiration?

well if you are a girl i recommend using guys deoderant.. ive heard it works soo much better (just dont get the weird scented ones) and if your a guy i would go to the doctor.. if you havent found anything that works for you. if you drink water i know you sweat less because your body is cooler if that helps. dry keeping a fan on while you exercise or what not

I have a huge dance coming up soon. My dress is strapless. Whenever I shave my armpits, its always still dark! It'll be hair free but its always dark! How do I get rid of that?

(14/f)

well what i do is moisturize for a couple of days (makes the shave closer because the skin is smoother) then i try not to shave for a few days before the dance because longer hair ussually makes a better shave.. and i wait as long as i can before i shave (literally the second before i get into my dress) also instead if shaving cream dry conditioner is smoothes the skin. and use a new razor to shave with that you know wont cut your underarms (so if its a new brand use it on your legs first or something to test it!)

OKay say if your getting a blood test for say Bi Polar disorder, would they be able to determine if you had been doing drugs. For example if you had done weed within the week.

ussually they dont check for that.. but because its a mental disorder they might.. i believe weed can be out of your system within 48 hours but im not suire

Lately I have been under a lot of stress from finals and other things. In the past two weeks I have passed out 4 times. How much blood do you ussually have to lose before passing out and what could be other causes of this? I'm 14 and relatively healthy.

passing out doesnt nessesarily have to do with you passing out. my sister used to pass out all the time because she just recently found out she has a somewhat common heart condition that makes her dehydrated and passes out. you should def see a doctor.. my sister was perfectly healthy before this.. she was a normal athletic 12 year old

Does coffee make you lose weight or gain weight? Does it have any effect at all?

if anything you gain weight because its loaded with sugar and that.. ive heard tea is good for weight loss if you dont drink more than a glass a day but coffee you def gain weight

Dear Advicenators-

I just got a 5th generation 30gb ipod. I got it Sunday, yes Yesterday and I dropped it in my sink today! After that it worked for less than 5 minutes, then had a low battery sign, and completley shut off.. now I have a symbol that pops up wiht a sad face on it, and an ecalimation point. What does this mean and how do I get my iPod to start wokring again?!?

well hopefully you got the warrenty! just take it back and tell them it started doing that from the very beginning and just dont tell them you dropped it. if you got it from the ipod store ususally they will take it right back and you can get a new one

I know this is kind of early to be asking, but for prom should you wear short dress or a long dress? I want to wear a short dress, but i dont know if that would be weird

most people wear long dresses especially in the north but as long as the dress isnt above the knee i dont think it should be too bad. i would ask around your school and see what other people are doing

I am East India so my hair is very very dark. A few months ago, I streaked it copper. I want to try to temporarily change my hair colour (I'm partial to reds) but I'm not sure if it will show. I used a red Colourpulse last time but it tinted my -highlights- redder (just by a bit, though) and I want a more dramatic colour.
Usually, at the side of temporary colour boxes, there is a sample of before/after hair and the darkest shade sampled is "dark brown" which isn't really dark brown, it's more light brown if anything.
Is there a shade in Colourpulse, Colourflirt, or any other dye that washed out in 8-12 shampoos that I can use? Is there any technique that will make the shade deeper?

they make a special line of colors for that.. i believe loreal has a brand just for dark hair that washes out in like 14 shamppos. the best place to check is a supermarket that carries alot of hair dyes... like giant eagle

say it was 3 thin layers of clothing. He did ejaculate and I noticed that there was a wet spot on my shorts around the top of my private area, I am not sure if it went through my underwear or not, but my underwear was also wet, but that was probably my stuff. I am really scared that I will get pregnant. I will get my period approximately around Feb 9 so that is where I stand. I am really worried, what can I do?

you cant get pregnant.. well you can but the change is very small because the cum has to be like pushed up u

i weigh about 150 pounds and i want to weigh about 120 or 110 by the summer so i can wear cute bathingsuits and stuff. how can i do this. i play basketball and softball and for softball we have winter workouts and we run alot. but what else can i do , my problem areas are my butt,stomach,arms, and thighs. please help ill rate 5's!!!

eat better. no more junk food or pop (if you drink 1 can a pop a day for a year most woman gain about 17 pounds) loose weight before you work out because all the fat will turn to muscle but then just turn to fat again but if you get rid of the fat first then muscle cant turn back into fat. also dont snack before meals of after practice. ive found out if a wait like an our after practice (i play softball 2) that im not as hungry

Why is it that some peoples bodies reject their piercings shortly after they are done?

There's this talent show coming up and I want to sing in it. I've been singing for a long time in a choir and I've been very well-trained, but one thing is that I'm worried about. I don't know whether I have a good voice. When I listen to myself singing I think I sound good, but I recorded myself on a tape recorder (mind you, not the professional kind). It sounded too horrific to describe in words. And I know it's not because I'm not trained/have no vocal technique/straining/no breath control and/or not breathing correctly/no support/whatever, because I am none of those things. It's just the sound of my voice. I heard that tape recorders don't record accurately and everyone things they sound bad on a recorder, but I'm still worried that I have a bad voice. At the talent show, it would be very embarassing if everyone thought I had a terrible voice and no one has the gut to tell me, so I need to know before this happens. Is there any other way I can find out what I really sound like without expensive professional tools? I don't want to go to my friend and say "Let me sing for you and tell me if I'm good or not" because I can never know whether my friend is being honest or just doesn't want to hurt my feelings. Any ideas? Sorry this was long, but I need help.

maybe you can talk to your chior teacher and see if you can practice with her/him alone few a half hour or something for a big talent show. also if you have a brother or sister sing for them.. they are usually pretty honest
