I'm a 19 year old girl who lives in Arizona...nothing really more to say about that. I am engaged and will be married in October of 2006. Uh...I'm pretty much a nerd at heart. I like to play video games, tabletop RPG's, and cosplay. People always say I don't look like I'd be a nerd, so I guess that's a good thing? I think I give decent advice, however I do like to joke around so sometimes I will post witty/sarcastic advice, especially if the question is stupid.

whenever i scrunch my hair it ends up being thick and poofy not like how it should look like.. im wondering what i should do so it looks thinner and what to use on my hair and how much.. thanks! (link)
I have VERY thick hair (I'm just lucky it's not poofy) But when I go to get my hair cut I ask them to "thin it out". They have these special scissor looking things that have weird edges and it thins out your hair. It's pretty neat, actually. As for the poofyness. You can pay a LOT of money to get a perm and it will be straight forever but I think thats about 400 dollars. Or you can buy a straigtener, they range from 30-100 dollars and you can use it every morning.


i pierced my bellybutton myself a couple of times before and i took it out ..now there is a little lump .. could i get my belly button pierced still or i cant? what should i do
(link)
You should go to a docter before even thinking about getting it pierced again.


i lost my ipod!
any ideas where to look like lost and found (it was in school and im really upset!)any ideas where i might be able to find it?

ill rate a 5! (link)
Chances are someone found it and they kept it. (The same thing happened to my friend) Even though nobody can use your Ipod without YOUR software, people still try to steal them. Report it to the school office and they will probably let all the janiters and maintence workers know to keep an eye out for it. That's really all you can do :(


Guys- What way do you all liked to be asked out? From the girls friend, the girl? What I was wanting to ask this guy out and I am having my friend to. (link)
I'm not a guy but I heard that guys like it when you do it, when a friend does it it makes you look kinda like a baby.


I met this girl Stacy on an online RPG, and we were good friends, then we realized that we loved each other, and things were really great. Don't tell me it was teenage infatuation. I know love when I feel it! So anyway my parents won't let me on it anymore. Crap, I gotta go, so I'll hurry. Basically, I miss her, she misses me, we have no way of communicating, and I've got another girlfriend but I still miss her soooooo much. Thanks all! (smartasses get 1s) (link)
Are you sure it's HER your in love with, and not the RPG with her? Because I know Ive been there. It could just be playing with her that you love, or the story you create.


i'm not going to i'm 18 but just out of curiosity how much does it hurt when you have sex for the 1st time? does it sting sting or does it feel like a bruse? how long does it hurt for? (link)
It still hurts me sometimes to have sex with my fiance of two years...but my friend has only had sex a few times and it doesn't hurt her a bit. It's all about the person.


ok, my hair is naturally blonde...and uh i dyed it black...(but it was a lot of colors in between and the black was a boo boo) and now my roots are back and it has been dyed black for almost 1 and a half years now. i have been redoing it and stuff when my roots needed it. but now i wanna get back to blonde!!! how can i go about getting back to blonde with blonde roots of about 2 inches and then the rest of my shoulder length hair black? is there any way to get hte dye out, cuz i wanna be blonde again ASAP!!! thanks! (link)
You could just bleach it, but I warn you... My friend did the EXACT same thing you did (Tried to get her natural blonde from black) and when she bleached it her hair was literally dead. It felt gross, looked dead, and she literally had to start over with short hair until her hair was healthy again. I'd suggest going to a professional place where it will be pricey but worth it. They are really the only ones who can save your hair.


Ok i asked before how do i remove hairs from my private parts and someone said try Nair so i did.. The thing i need to ask is on the top of my private part it leaves like rough bits!!! is there ne way i can get it smooth. sorry i am inexperienced. i even used nair twice and its still there i like want it smooth..... i don't want it like a boys beard when he shaves lol. help please. Im 16/f. (link)
NEVER use Nair. That's the worst idea ever! It says right on the bottle that Nair shouldn't be used in sensitive areas like a bikini line and underarms. The best thing to do is to trim with scissors and then use a razor to shave it very carefully. (Yes use shaving cream). Depending on how thick it is, shave moving against the hair, but do it very carefully. The smoothness will only last for a few days though, until stubbles come back. The only way to be perfectly smooth all the time is to get it waxed which is both expensive and painful.


My Mom & Dad are having problems. Atleast that's what my Mom said. My Dad is worried about money issues and is mad at my Mom for not having a stable job (she helps the hospice with living assistence and doesn't get solid hours) He's also worried about my Mom's heart procedure coming up. She's getting her heart..."zapped"..I guess you could say..And he won't talk to me anymore. He shows no emotion other than anger. When he goes out he just leaves without saying where he is going. And he totally favors my sister, even though he says he doesn't. For my birthday this summer (august), he didn't get me anything. And my sister's birthday is in March..and he just recently bought her TWO electric guitars...and she doesn't even play!!! I just get so mad around him and I want him too atleast talk to me...at my softball game I got a homerun and he didn't say anything. I just don't know what too do anymore. =-/

Honestly, I don't know what to say but I can't stand seeing something this important sit up there with no answer. I'd suggest talking to your school counsler because what is going on is an extreme form of abuse, and it's very wrong.


i babysit one 5 year old girl and one 7 year old boy every tuesday, and i dont know what to do with them. they only can watch tv or play video games for a total of 1 hour and 30 minits. the girl always wants to play barbies or computer games with me and i can tell the boy gets kind of bored. could someone help me come up with some crafts or games i can play with both of them? thanx i rate high (link)
I have a few ideas, but here is one that sticks out in my mind. Collect some old magazines (Ones that kids can flip through. NOT Cosmo or Sports Illistrated), like Family Circle, Parents, Home and Garden, or things like that. Make sure there are lots of ads in the magazines also. Then make two cards (Like bingo). Instead of number in the squares write things like "Lipstick" or "Macaroni and Cheese". Give each child an equal amount of magazines and have them cut out the pictures they find that match the word inside of the square. Once they have a bingo they can win a prize. It's a really fun game for them, but make sure you flip through the magazines to be positive that the words you write on the cards are in the magazine.


OKay evrsceince the 6th grade i've hung out with a girl named Chelsea . And dont get me wrong she is my freind its just everytime she want's to borrow something she never gives it back and i don't wanna say anything cause im afride she wont like me and she is KNown as MIss POpular


cAN ANYONE HELP ME?
(link)
Next time she wants to borrow something, why don't you ask to borrow something of hers too. Like: "Oh you like my bracelet enough to borrow it? I love your necklace, can I borrow it too?" If she says no than that's a sign that she's a little selfish, and you can turn her down to borrow something. And if she says yes, then you can say "Okay! We can return them on the same day? Alright?"


That's the subtle approach.

If you want to get a faster reaction you can say "Hey remember that brush I loaned you? Can I get it back because it's the only one that can curl my hair right." (Or something like that). It's very possible that she just forgot that she borrowed things from you and this will help remind her.

It sounds like you might have something called bipolar disorder. I would suggest talking to your parents or doctor about it.


(SORRY IF THIS IS LONG ILL RATE HIGH) well there is this kid who i think he might like me like he really acts like it sometimes.. like sometimes he'll come over to me and just like kick me just kiddingly... or like he'll tackle me and make me fall into snow also just kiddingly (when there is snow obviously) well i dont know because a lot of my friends think he likes me because the way he acts around me.. and i asked one of his friends and he said he acts flirty and smiley.. which he does around me i thought thats just the way he was but i guess not... but he told one of my friends that he only liked me as a friend... is he lying? does he like me or just want to be friends? help please.. ill rate high! (link)
Some people are just flirty by nature, it doesn't necessarily mean they have a crush on you. Also, sometimes people treat their closest friends like they have a crush on them but really it's just due to their flirtatious nature. If he told one of your friends that he didn't like you, that means he probably doesn't like you and he doesn't mean to send you the signals that he does. Or your friend may be lying.


Is the nano ipod a good buy? (link)
I suggest getting the Zen Micro. It's ten times better.

i have 2 questions...
1. what is the law about dating a person over 18 if your a minor? some people say its not illegal till u have sex some say its if you touch in any sexual way even kissing
2. i am 15 and the guy i like is 18 is that soo bad....

help if you can (link)
It's not soo bad... It's SOOOOO bad. Date guys your own age. Don't you think it's weird that he can't get a girl his age and he has to have an underage girlfriend. I hope he goes to jail.


anyone know how to get off paint on jeans? (link)
Try washing them.


I usually dont eat much. I eat maybe one small thing for breakfast and half of my lunch. I usually dont eat dinner. I usually exercise everything off if I eat a huge lunch or a huge dinner. I constantly worry about how much i weigh but im too scared to weigh myself cause im scared of the effect itll have on me. I usually exercise regularly. I run a mile a day, 30 pushups, 5 minute wall sit, and tons of other things. I'm also involved in Cheerleading so that kind of also is an excuse for me to exercise more often and burn off any fat. Ive been getting sick easier lately and idk why ive been sick for like 2 weeks now. Am i anorexic or what?

Oh also ive noticed my legs are smaller and so are my arms.. and ive noticed other things but i need oppinions i rate 5s. kthanxbye! (link)
All cheerleaders are anorexic. So yes, you are.
