i have verizon wireless, but can my parents find out what i'm texting, even though i delete them? does it go on record and is it on my file, so can they just call verizon and ask to see what text messages i send??
it will show who you're texting, but not the actual text message. i think that's an invasion of privacy if verizon gave that info out.
the otherday i was wearing a really tight shirt, it started to ride up a little because it was so tight. some boy came up to me and said "you got a nasty muffintop, cover that up." what is a muffintop? is it good or bad, if its bad how do i get rid of it?
muffintop is bad. it's where your jeans are too tight and your love handles stick out, like the top of a muffin. the best way to get rid of this is to buy bigger jeans. or, you could excercise it off, which takes longer than going to american eagle. to get rid of it you can run, walk, do crunches, et cetera.
could you get aids or hiv from them, considering they suck blood from a lot of different people?
i've never heard of it happening, and like the first answer, it's scientifically impossible. however, you can get other diseases from mosquitos and ticks, like lyme disease or malaria. i believe that malaria is less common than lyme disease, and can only be transmitted through one type of mosquito. so just watch out for ticks the next time you're in a forest or something. mosquitos are horrible here, and nobody i know has ever gotten sick from a mosquito bite, and the lord knows we get bitten all the time.
holy sh*t
I lost my JOURNAL!!!
my parents are split up, so when I travel from house to house I put my diary at the bottom of my bag when I go to school.
I'm 15/f and I can't find it anywhere.
that book holds everything. I am a lesbian, and no one even knows it, have a huge crush on my (female) teacher, and I wrote stuff about people in my class that I hate.
My school is also TINY (private, all girls)
if someone found it and read it, everything would be all over school in a day, and I think i'd want to go to public school immediately even though I love my school.
WHAT SHOULD I DO?! should i just keep looking, or should i confront some of the people in my class, just in case they have it so i can have it back without EVERYONE knowing?
I am honestly in tears, this is the worst week of my life and I don't know what to do. PLEASE HELP!
p.s. please don't lecture me on how i need to protect things like this from getting into the wrong hands, I know that, it was my fault but I really need help with what to do right now!
first of all, here's what i would do... do NOT tell anybody at school, and do NOT tell your parents that you lost the journal. because then they will know that it exists. go through everything you have... dirty clothes hamper, whatever it is, look through it. look through your mom's house and your dad's house before you tell your friends. i've had an experience like this where i thought that i put something in my bag (out of habit because i do it every day) and then it ends up not being there, and i find it exactly where i left it. if you don't find it at either of your parents' houses, go ahead and tell your parents that you lost it. if they haven't seen it, talk to your best friend about it and have her keep an eye out for it. other than that, there's not much you can do. i'm pretty sure it will show up somewhere in your house though.
How much water are you suppost to drink everyday?
And how is drinking the right ammount good? Does it help your health?
I also read this somewhere
"drinking cranberry juice also helps the kidneys to flush any toxins which can lead to urinary tract infections"
Is that true? Cranberry juice is good for you?
And I also read that if urine is strong smelling and brightly colored you aren't getting enough water. If I drink more water does urine not smell as bad and will it be clear?
every adult is supposed to drink 64 ounces, or 8 cups. but i've also heard that if you want to be more accurate, take your body weight in pounds, divide it by two, and that's the number of ounces you need to drink. so then you can divide that by eight to get the number of cups. for me, i weigh 120, so i should be drinking 60 ounces a day, which is just shy of 8 cups. drinking the right amount is good because it keeps you going. it gives you energy, and it's good especially if you're working out or losing lots of water as sweat if you hang out outside a lot. it does help your health. i believe the cranberry thing is true, but i've never tried it because i hate cranberries. it sure couldn't hurt, right? if you drink the recommended amount of water per day, or even more than that, your urine will be a little bit lighter, but probably not completely clear per se. it won't smell bad either. however, you will have to urinate a lot more if you drink a whole lot of water. you can tell if you're nearing dehydration if your urine is really brightly colored. basically, the water dilutes the urine and turns it a lighter color when you drink enough water.
does anyone know if you can test for your california leaner`s permit online ? or do you have to take it at the dmv ?
you have to take it at the dmv. otherwise, you would be able to look up answers, or even get somebody else to take the test for you. at the dmv, they fingerprint you and you have to sign stuff. you also have to show your social security card/passport/sometimes even birth certificate. so that way, they make sure it is you taking the test and getting your permit.
Fuck! I made a bet with this guy in my class that I would go on this ride when I go to Great Adventure (northeast) like a week from now, for my orchestra concert. Its to go on Superman. Now.. I'm a 13 year old girl in seventh grade, who is afraid of heights at times, and doesnt "love" rollercoasters that much. heck i was even afraid on the wild mouse! i've never been on a ride with loops and stuff and the superman doesnt have that.. but i saw like on youtube how high you drop at first.. howly freaking crap. is there anyone like me who has gone on this ride at great adventure (or anywhere else if they are the same) and how does it feel? my cousin also said it was hella awesome.. but.. i mean i wanna go on it but can i get hurt on it? i dont have a bad heart or anything but on rollercoasters i feel like my stomach or heart will pop right outta my mouth! if i have no heart conditions and im like 5'5 so im above the height thingy.. will i be okay (though hella scared) on it? also where should i sit. front, middle or back? which is better?
lastly is it okay that i get a note from my mom to give the health people so that i get a wheelchair or whatever they give you so you can skip all the lines? me and my friends wanna do that.. or just butt through people talking on cellphones like we're really important haha. any rides to reccomend for me, too? i love water rides.. im not too afraid of the really high ones.. but for roller coasters.. eh.. idk give me ones you'd think i'd like! thanks a bunches! :]
i think i know which ride you are talking about, but i live in the south so it may have a different name. anyway, you will probably be really nervous, but you will not die :) i promise. you should probably sit in the middle, if you are scared. and i really don't think the note thing will work. because if you really were in a wheelchair, why would they let you go on the rides? haha. you can probably get fast passes, or just wait in the lines. you can try to butt through the people, but everybody will hate you. i've never been to that theme park, but none of the rides are going to kill you, i promise. and you will probably end up really liking the superman ride.
how do you know if your friend is attached to you? and do you think being attached with your friend is bad or good and why?
your friend is attached to you when they are basically around all the time. they always call, email, text, and they hate for you to hang out with other people. they always want to hang out, and they always want to know your business. having a good relationship with friends is good, but being so attached to a friend that you lose your own personality is bad. my best friend has another good friend, and they are so attached to each other that it is annoying and obnoxious. they are always together, and even at lunch when we all sit at a big table all they do is talk to each other. so i think it's bad... that's why i try to hang out with a lot of different people and i try to split up my time between friends so that i still retain my own personality.
i bleached my hair from brown to bdirty blondish on sunday...can i go swimming? or will it turn green?
it should be okay to swim now since it's been a few days. it might turn green just because you're blonde now and the chlorine turns most blonde hair green (i know from experience), but it washes out so it's not really a problem. the only way to avoid the green is if you don't swim ever again, so go ahead and jump in a pool :)
What traits do girls look for in guys? What would your ideal guy be like?
here's mainly what i look for in a guy (even as guy friends, because all guys should do this anyway): gentlemen! they need to respect the people around them. that includes family, teachers, girls, et cetera. because it's nice to know that somebody is looking out for you. he also needs to be really confident in himself. i'm really confident in myself and i don't like hanging around people with low self-esteem. and he also needs to have a real reason for living, like a passion for something. i tend to hang around people that have a true passion for things like music, or photography, or athletic stuff. because if you don't really care about anything at all, then why should people care about you? that's kind of my thinking there. i mean, tall and handsome doesn't hurt, but it's what's inside that really counts.
so i met this really cool guy last night. hes so cute and sweet and funny and i dont know if i like him but i deff. want to hang out with him again. my other friend i was with said hes into me and there like best friends. the only problem is he was a little tipsy ( he wasnt drunk but he wasnt sober ) and i dont think hes gonna remember me. i texted him today and he was like sorry i was all over you last night...do you think that means he regrets it or that hes just sorry?
if he regretted it, he probably wouldn't be open about it. what i mean is, whenever you do something you consider stupid, you don't go tell your friends about it, right? i think he's just saying sorry because he doesn't know if it offended you or not. talk to him and see if you really like him.
Ok guys and girls. I want all of you guys' opinions on facebook and myspace. What you love about facebook and what you love about myspace. What you hate about them both. Which one do you feel is easier to run. And overall which one is the best. Anything else you can think of just put it down. I want ALLL opinions. When I rate it is your opinion so will NOT rate low. ;)
on facebook, i love that it is so organized and you can search for your friends that have moved away or whatever and see what they're up to. i also like how you can upload photos and tag people. it's really nice how everybody has to put their first and last name so that you know who you are really talking to. myspace is good because i can find different bands that i like. i basically just have myspace so that i can talk to the people who don't have facebook. also, so i can promote my own music. i hate that everybody is obsessed with myspace, and i also hate that they have profile songs and profile layouts. that's just gay. facebook is easier to run, in my opinion. there are no facebook hackers, but there are myspace hackers, which is annoying. generally, i like facebook more and so do my friends so that's what we use to communicate about different events and stuff. i can't tell you how many parties and stuff i've been to that have been organized by facebook.
I'm unsure if I want to go to university or not. I do want to get a good job and everything and get a degree, but it's a long time to spend there if you're not really that into higher education. Plus it's seriously expensive and I don't want to move too far away from home.
I've thought about taking a gap year, working to get some money saved up and then either doing a part time Business Management course or something, but I'd be 20 by the time I decided to go. Arghh dunno what to do.
I know not going to uni isn't the end of the world, but I'm so confused!
here's something to think about: if you apply, get in, and start taking classes, you can always quit if you don't like it. however... if you just decide not to go now, what will motivate you to go back? please at least try to get some form of higher education. you will get a much better job, and you will always have a degree to fall back on. also, if you wait a year or whatever, that is just going to put you more behind... as in, you will get out later and it will take more time for you to finish your education for good. you can always go straight into the workforce, but many good jobs require a degree in business or whatever your fancy is. ultimately, it's your decision, but the sky is the limit.
how many times is the average teenage girl supposed to pee?
anywhere from 3-6 times, i'm sure. i normally go 3 times, but my friends go about twice that much. it just depends.
What are some good ska bands? Ones that, by listening to, i could get the idea of what exactly ska is.
Also, does reel big fish count as ska?
i'm not an expert or anything, but some of my favorite ska is the old gwen stefani stuff (no doubt) and save ferris. reel big fish is ska, but i don't really listen to them. if you have itunes, you can probably search by genre and listen to the 30 second clips to see if you like any other ska bands. also, you can search for cds on amazon.com and a lot of the times it has a 30 second sample.
Don't say ballet is not a sport because in one way or another, it is. And so I'm pretty sure it goes under sports...but carrying on.
Anyways, I'm currently 14/f and finishing up 9th grade. I'll be turning 15 in July [I don't know if that helps squat to my question].
When I was 7 or 8, I took ballet for 3 months? And I ended up quitting because I got sick really easily and I wasn't exactly the patient little girl.
Now I want to take ballet again but I don't know if I should or shouldn't. Do you think it would be weird for a 14 year old girl that is almost 15 to start ballet from the very beginning? Should I even take ballet or not? If yes, will I be put in a class by age or experience/level? If by level, will I be in a class with little girls? What can I do ahead of time [way before any class starts] for ballet?
honestly, if you really want to start taking ballet again, it really can't hurt you! and if you do other types of dance, it will definitely show that you've had some ballet. my mom was a dancer, and she can always tell the ballet girls apart from other dancers. you will probably be put in a class by experience/level. however, that doesn't mean you'll be with three year olds... i have a friend who just started ballet again (she's 15) and there are other people her age in her class, and they're at the same level as she is. it will really help if you start stretching every night. even every morning and night, if you have time. your body type sounds like it wouldn't hinder your dancing. i have friends in ballet who are all shapes and sizes, and they're all really good. ballet works different muscles in your legs than say, running or walking, so your legs might change a little in the way your muscles are toned. at least, that's what another one of my friends said... when she started taking ballet, her legs became a lot slimmer and a lot more muscular (not like big, just less fat and more muscles). in the beginning, if you're not really flexible it might be a little difficult, but if you really work on it, you will definitely be able to do your splits. whenever you watch tv, or do homework at night, just sit down on the floor and start stretching. it will help a whole bunch! i was never a dancer, but i had to perform a dance for a drama class i was in one time... it involved this high kick thing, and of course i'm not flexible at all, but i stretched like three times a day for a month and my kick was way higher. in a little while after you start stretching you will probably be able to do "six o clocks", which, if you're not familiar with, is basically when you do your splits on a wall (your head is facing the ground) and your legs are straight up and down, so it looks like a clock. so basically what i would work on, if i were you, would be stretching your legs, and maybe even some crunches here and there. but definitely continue stretching. good luck!
I really need as much answers as possible.
To start off, I'm 16 Female and I have HIV. It got transmitted to me from my mom at birth, so it wasnt my fault what so ever!! So I've been dating this guy for a while now and I told him i have this HUGE secret, which i will tell him when im ready and in the beginning of our relationship, I tested the waters to see How he would handle the HIV situation. So I asked him, "what would you do if I had HIV?" and He replied "I'd still love you, and i would still have sex with you." So, I was SO relieved to hear that, I was happy that he would accept me and we'd still have a relationship without worry! And that was about 2 months ago!! Then last night I asked him Again what he'd do, and he replied "well, if we were getting married then yeah I would have sex with you, but if we werent getting married, then no i wouldnt have sex with you " SO i was SO upset! and said how low that was, because his answer was completetly different before, and i also told him that
"if he wouldnt accept me if i had HIV then he wouldnt accept my "secret" " because IT IS my Secret! but he doesnt know what my secret is. so then he said "well if it was some girl i didnt know and didnt love then no i wouldnt have sex with her but if it was you then I would." so I DONT KNOW WHAT I DO! should I tell him now and get it over with??!! Tell me answers!! HELP! and please dont say that i shouldnt have sex!! BECAUSE I DONT NEED THAT ANSWER!! I've made up my mind that i do want to have sex with him.
I really hope this makes sense!
if y'all are planning to have sex, it is your responsibility to tell him. obviously, you would have to tell whoever you get married to, but since he is only your boyfriend for now there is no immediate reason to tell him. however, he has a right to know, if he is going to be sexually involved with you. so ultimately, it is your decision whether or not to tell him, but since you do want to have sex with him, you definitely need to tell him. you may not get the desired response, but it's better to tell beforehand than after the fact. i would tell him. the easiest way to do that would probably just be to say, "look, i'm sorry, but my mother transmitted HIV to me at birth." that will be easier for him to understand than dodging the point.
This is mostly for people in the Chicago area, but if you have the knowledge, share it.
So yea, new Smashing Pumpkins single came out Friday, and is being played everywhere. However I read a comment in a blog saying that whatever the radio station is in Chicago is playing it AND a second single from Zeitgeist. It was hard enough for me to find a non radio version of Tarantula, and that comment is the only thing I've read about a second single.
Anyone have a link or name of it or any info? Thanks.
okay, i'm a pumpkins fan too, and i looked for the singles on itunes and the only one they had was tarantula. i didn't see anything about zeitgeist.

i guess we'll just have to wait to see what the rest of the album will sound like.
can you get into a good college if you have only one C or B- in math? and the rest of the grades are A's?
yep. colleges look at your semester grades, so just make sure that those represent your abilities well.
I was wondering...
Do they have any barbie dolls of the following celebrities?
Meagan Good
Solange Knowles
Shyamali Malakar
Miley Cyrus
Also,
Who sings this song?
It goes like this...
"I walked across... "
In the beginning, then in the main verse it says:
"Oh simple thing... where have you gone?"..... "And I need something to rely on." a few lines later. Umm... Blake Lewis sang that song on American Idol a long time ago, anyone know?
Thank y'all for being so patient.
this should have been two questions, but the answer to the second one is "somewhere only we know" by keane.
EDIT: if you don't want people to tell you stuff, maybe you shouldn't be on an advice site. ever give that one a thought, smarty?
