~Miss Emmy Boo~

hey! Well in profile settings under where you say "hey my name is billy joe bob" well you put this code *img src="URL of pic here"* ...REPLACE FIRST STAR WITH < AND LAST STAR WITH >. Now, to get your picture to a URL go to photobucket.com, sign up, upload your pics, and you'll get the URL. For more help, just leave it in the inbox! Oh and you can do this as many times as you would like, like if you had 10 icons..just put the code 10 different times with the URls!

Q: hey, it's me Jojo aka 1 fashion chic. I was just wondering if u could help me. I don't know what to get my bf for valentines and his B-day bcause this month is his b-day too so I have to give him 2 gift. but I don't know what. His in 8th grade about to turn 14, his really sweet and he act getho sometimes. He listen to rap and hip hop. I don't know what to do. And I have another question Im 14 and im kinda new to relationship. Do we have to do somethin for valentines... Please reply quick.
Thanks!!!

You should do something small, maybe like going to the movies...nothing big. You can get him gift certificates to stores..like clothing/video game, etc. stores. Like whats his fav store? Get him a $25-$30 certificate, and maybe get a bag of his favorite chocolates...have fun!!

Q: I've heard that if you go on a diet that restricts food intake or doesn't have the right nutrition, that when you go back to normal eating, you will gain back all the weight PLUS more. The gaining back all the weight makes sense, but what is it that makes you gain more? Just curious.

Well, it happened to me. I gained back all the weight plus more. Basically, your sooo happy your off the diet....you over eat because your excited to eat the foods you havent ate for a while.

Q: Me and my ex boyfriend don't really talk anymore, he has a new girlfriend now. But, i found out that he cheated on her and i know for a fact cuz he told me too. Should i tell his girlfriend?? his girlfriend and i have always hated eachother but i hate them being together it makes me like sick cuz i'll always love him :-/.. i think thats why i want to tell his girlfriend the news. Should i tell her? or leave it alone? thanks ill rate

Tell her. Whether she was your best friend or enemy..Because guys shouldent get away with cheating..But keep in mind, word might get out that you told her...so be ready for that.

Q: How can you slim down your legs? I have big thighs and I was just wondering if there is a way to slim down ONLY your legs.

By doing leg exercises like the ones people told you so you first build muscle, and then the muslce burns the fat. Thats the only way. because if you diet, your body chooses where to lose it...I wish it didnt though! i wish we had a choice!

Q: testing 123

Q: I have intense hair flaking. The skin on my scalp is coming off and causing dandriff. Its really gross and a few people asked me if I had lice and I said no its just hairspray but the fact is I dont even use hairspray.. This is really gross and Im constantly worrying about it so I dont know what I should do..

You need Head and Shoulders Shampoo and Conditioner. I have that too, and I shower with that now and its getting less flaky everytime I use it:)

Q: this is very very stupid but how do you put eyeliner on neatly because it turns out shitty when i do it. like it doesnt come out evenly or normal if you get wut im saying...well my friend...lets call her Marg...well she always gets it perfect id ask Marg but im kinda embarrased lol plus i dont think she could help..can you please help me

Actually, its great to have a friend help you and teach you. Its better to see someone do it slowly than having someone on the internet (me) explaining it to you. Dont be embarrased, shes your friend..be like hey, how do you put on eyeliner soo good? Let me see if I can explain, well you have the pencil(pencil is good for beginners) and push your skin down under your eye so you can see the pink line thing..you know where you put your liner..and start from the inside(which is the part next to your nose) and work your way out. Just color it in basically, and keep pressing until you see a lot of eyeliner. I'm sorry if I didnt help much, but you can always ask friends or even family...have fun! eyeliner rocks;)

OH AND IF YOU SCREWED YOUR EYELINER ALL UP. Take a q-tip, put some lotion on it, and rub that over all the eyeliner and it'll be gone. it might take more than one q-tip to take it off though.

Q: where can i get a get well card?

At Hallmark or like at a Target...basically any food/clothing store:)

Q: I was supposed to babysit tomorrow ,but my boyfriend's basketball game got cancelled today and resceduled for tomorrow ... at the same time that I have to babysit. The woman that I babysit for doesn't think going to his games is a good excuse to cancel ( I know this from past experiences). So I need some help thinking up a good excuse to cancel on such short notice. I know this is very wrong but I really need the advice... Fast! Thank u so much... I rate high!

Well, wouldent she think you just wanted to go to the game? Its just ONE game, he wont like break up with you for not going..I say babysit!

Q: Okay im DESPERATE for a good Eyeliner and a good Foundation, the liquid one, the ones I wear ALWAYS come off within 30 minutes, and its so annoying! and they smell bad too! I really need help!!

MAC! MAC is expensive but worth it, totally. They help you and give you tips on what to do with your makeup. Oh and, good cheap eyelienrs would be NYC Jane and Wet N Wild. You can get them from $1-$3. Ohh and for foundation I would say MAC. They stay on all day:) But again, its expensive. Check out www.maccosmetics.com for their products~!!

Q: What is your Top flirting tip? thanks xx

Touching him a lot, like punching him...trying to start a fight..chasing him..and laughing!! one time i was laughing because this guy said something funny, and everyone thought I liked him..haha...so laugh! :)

Q: I been dating this guy for 2 months and it was going really good untill I found this letter that he wrote my best friend ( that he like befor) he wrote that he really like her and everthing.When I saw that I was going to die.I need help!!!!!! I'm tried of getting hurt. WHAT DO I DO!!!!!!!!

He shouldent be writing lietters to your best friend* saying that stuff. He obviosuly does not care for you and you deserve so much better. Break up with him!!

Q: Okay lets start my saying im 13 years old. I am dating a 17 year old. My parents along with his parents think it's a bad idea because of the age difference. I havent been able to get ahold of him and talk to him about it. I also like some one who is closer to my age. But does kind of bad things like drinking isnt a problem to me since i do it but he does ciggerates and weed and stuff. He told me he wouldnt pressures me in to anything and he told me he likes me to.HELP ME IM CONFUSSED!!!

Break up with him. before you get hurt. Do you think hes going to tell you he'll be pressuring you? Nope. Hes lying, I'm sorry...my 20 year old sister (who has a lot of experience) said that a 17 year old would only want sex from a 13 year old. simple as that. I'm not trying to be mean, I just dont want you to get pregnant or have your heart broken by this guy!

Q: i have a bit of hair on my lower back, and its like blonde so its not gorilla, but you can see it...is that normal/really wierd? i always feel so self consious about it because im not a hairy person at all! but what do guys think about that? do they prefer a bald-body girl? hehe

There is hair everywhere, even your back...on everyone. Of course, some girls have it worse than others but most of it doesnt even show! Dont worry about it, guys wont be like omggg u have a little bit of hair on your back! Just dont say anything and they wont notice it

Q: i'v been going out with a girl for like a week so should i get her some thing for valentines and if i should then what?

Sure, even if you have only been going out for one day..get her something and show her you care. So what does she like? Get her gift certifcates to her favorite clothing/music store:) That way she can get what she wants and you wont have to worry wether she'll like it or not:)

Q: i asked a girl out and she said yes ok im 13 she 13 and i want to take her some where but i dont know how to go any where because her parents dont know and i dont want to go with one of her friend unless i have to.i have a older brother and sister that can drive so how do i go some where with her???

The movies. Just let her say to her parents shes going with some friends to the movies, but shes really going with you. Or you could go somewhere in the same area as the movies..so you dont have to go to the movies all the time.

Q: If I havent talked to someone in more than 4 months, would it be really strange for me to call him? I don't seem to be a good judge about this kind of stuff.
