ok my dad has netflix so i'm wondering what I should order this week as my movie choice.
I really like comedies but i've seen alot, i don't like gory or scary movies either. Also, i don't like dramatic movies and i'm not a huge fan of romantic comedies. My favorite movie is Scary Movie 3 so anything like that.

thank you!

Here are some good comedies:
-Anchorman
-The Perfect Score
-Dodgeball
-Not Another Teen Movie (R rated)
-South Park: Bigger Longer & Uncut (R rated)
-Monty Python and the Holy Grail
-Any of the Austin Powers movies
-Scary Movie 1, 2, or 4

I hoped I helped, enjoy your movies!

I'm getting my hair done on Saturday. Cut and color. I'm pretty much keeping my haircut, but i want to drastically change the color. Here is a picture of me. http://myspace-972.vo.llnwd.net/01184/27/92/1184492972_l.jpg

ideas would be great. :]

Oooh, oooh, I love these sorts of questions.

Ideas:
-Go a little shorter and do ice blond.

-Chocolate brown with side bangs.

-Deep red would look pretty awesome with any cut.

If you want to go REALLY drastic:

-You could do hot pink with lime green in the front.

-Jet Black with white streaks.

-Dark blue, with or without blond streaks.

I hope I helped! Enjoy your new hair!

my school has a secondary dance coming up on friday, and i don't know what to wear! i want to wear a skirt (not pants) if i can help it, but i don't know what i could wear for the top? maybe a dress??
also, i'm new to the school and i know there are guys that like me in my year. i'm scared that they are going to ask me to dance, and i have never EVER danced with a guy before, so how can i not panic about it?
:S
please someone help me!
thanks :D

It's good to keep your outfit casual and comfortable, but still a little different from what you would wear to school.

For a skirt, you could wear a denim mini (this one is cute: http://www.urbanoutfitters.com/shopping/product/detailmain.jsp?itemID=21877&itemType=PRODUCT&iMainCat=10&iSubCat=22&iProductID=21877) , something flowy (like this: http://www.americanapparelstore.com/1303.html), or something form-fitting (like this: http://www.americanapparelstore.com/rsa7303.html#i).

If you go with a the denim mini or something else casual, your top should be dressier. I adore this: http://www.forever21.com/product.asp?catalog%5Fname=FOREVER21&category%5Fname=Dressy+Tops&product%5Fid=2033314776&Page=1 and this: http://www.gojane.com/17755.html.

If your skirt is a little fancier, try a cute graphic tee like http://www.gojane.com/16960.html or http://www.karmaloop.com/products.asp?ProductID=10875&VendorCode=TAN.

If your outfit still doesn't pop, you can add a scarf or a belt (http://www.karmaloop.com/products.asp?ProductID=16262&VendorCode=NYC or http://wetseal.com/productdetail.asp?mi=1600&size=&style=36796403&color=620&token=) to give your look some flair.

Do not make the mistake of wearing shoes you can't dance in because they're cute. My friend wore high-heels to a dance once, and ending up dancing barefoot most of the time. I recommend sneakers (you cannot go wrong with vans: http://shop.vans.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_10001_10101_302616_-1#), skimmers (http://www.keds.com/shopping/product/detailmain.jsp?itemID=787&itemType=PRODUCT&iMainCat=110&iSubCat=143&iProductID=787), or ballet flats (http://www.keds.com/shopping/product/detailmain.jsp?itemID=904&itemType=PRODUCT&iMainCat=110&iSubCat=143&iProductID=904&itemType=PRODUCT).

For your make-up, try dramatic eyes and natural lips. Lots of mascara!!! And bring a purse (this one is awesome: http://www.forever21.com/product.asp?catalog%5Fname=FOREVER21&category%5Fname=Accessories&product%5Fid=1028749724&Page=2) and put in your mascara and lipstick/gloss for emergency touch-ups.

You could wear your hair in a high ponytail with sidebangs, or down and wavy. Dress it up with a headband if you want :)

**********

About the nervousness:
Don't worry, it's totally normal to be scared about dancing with guys. If a boy asks you and you want to dance with him, take a deep breath and ask yourself what's the worst that could happen. And remember, if you're feeling panicked, think of how scary it must have been for the guy to ask you. He might be jst as nervous as you are, if not more.

And if a guy wants to dance with you in a way that you aren't comfortable with, it's okay to tell him no and walk away.

*******

I hope I helped! Have fun at your dance!

"becca puts my panties in a bunch" mean.
well obviously my name is becca but like the rest of it, what does it mean?

It means that the person you're talking about irritates or frustrates you. A similiar expression is "don't get your knickers in a twist."

Hello

So i really like this boy i met at my new highschool this year, but i dont know if he likes me back. we talk often, since hes in four of my six classes, and lately we've been walking kind of with eachother to our next class. We've been a bit friendlier to eachother lately, and a little while ago i saw him loko at me twice during spanish, but when i looked back he turned away like nothing was wrong. I try to show him i like him, like, i look at him sometimes and allow eye contact before looking away...but do you think he likes me too? Or should i keep working on it?

I would say he definitely likes you as a friend, but I can't tell you if he is romantically interested in you. Guys don't tend to pick up on the little things that girls do, so it possible he just isn't getting your hints. I suggest you take the flirting to the next level (try http://www.myjellybean.com/flirt/flirt.html for tips), and if he responds well, ask him out.

I hope I helped :)

Heyy y'all :D

I'll get right to it -
lets say there was a list of 10000 different classes you could take, everything from cooking to selfdefense, what class would you take? ölike, what would you actually ENJOY doing (not like math and physics haha) what seminar would you willingly go to, to hear about a class..

so basically, if you could invent a class that doesn't exist what would it be?
or have you ever been to some kind of class that you would love to go to again or even have as a real class in school??

Classes I would love:
-Fashion
-Yoga
-Songwriting
-Fiction writing
-Acting
-Interior decorating
-Rapping
-Psychology

I hope I helped!

I'm doing a project on rules in schools, the good and the bad. However, I need rules that AREN'T just at my schoo or in my state.

I was wondering, what kind of dress codes do you guys have at your schools? Length of shorts, tank tops, ripped jeans?

Also, what are the rules on PDA? We get suspension if we're caught hugging.

Just any rules you may feel strongly about or just ones you guys totally love!

Thanks so much!
Female, 14.

Dress code:
(I'm at a private kindergarten through 8th school in California, by the way, if that affects your research)
-No spaghetti straps or tube tops
-No midriff baring tops
-No hats, hoods, or sunglasses indoors; no bandanas
-No ripped jeans
-Shorts/skirts have to be at least halfway to your knee
-No clogs, open-toed shoes, or heels

******************

PDA:
We don't have very specific rules about PDA, but if people are kissing (on the lips) a teacher will tell them not to. They'd probably just get a warning the first few times, but if they keep doing it they'd probably call the parents.

Hugging and kissing on the cheek are fine, unless two people are groping each other or something.

*******************

Other Rules:
We can't have iPods, cellphones, or similar electronics at school AT ALL, even at lunch. That pretty much sucks. Other than that, we don't have any out-of-the-ordinary rules.

*******************

Good luck, I hope I helped :)

13/f/8th grade. i have a school uniform, and id like to spice it up a little bit. heres my uniform restrictions:
shirt: polo shirts (red, white, blue, black, grey, green, mahogany)
pants: khaki colored or dark blue
shorts: khaki colored
skirt:khaki colored
i usually wear shorts or pants, but any advice is good. i dont want to look like every other kid in my school. help me be different!
PS: advice on shoes and jackets would be nice too.

This article on Seventeen.com has really great ideas: http://www.seventeen.com/fashion/look/articles/0,,625897_699812,00.html

Here are some other easy, funky, and simple ways to add a little flair:

-Wear necklaces! I especially like fake pearls and mardi gras beads.

-Headbands (cloth or plastic) can also be really cute.

-If you're allowed, wear a funky patterned long-sleeved top underneath your polo shirt.

-When you wear a skirt, try wearing tights or leggings underneath. They're great not only because they're super trendy right now, but also they keep your legs warm and no one can see your underwear :) They have fabulous tights at www.lookfromlondon.com and really cute leggings at www.urbanoutffiters.com, but you might be able to find leggings in your mom/aunt/other relative's closet.

-For shoes: wear really comfy sneakers or flats. They're casual but still adorable. I recommend Keds (www.keds.com), Converses (http://www.converse.com), or Vans (www.vans.com).

-For jackets: I like hoodies and jean jackets. They have the best jean jackets at Gap (I adore this one: http://www.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=5739&pid=419230),
and you can get really awesome hoodies at Delia's (www.delias.com) and Old Navy (www.oldnavy.com).

-I LOVE SCARVES!! You can wear them traditionally around your neck, as a headwrap/headband, or as a funky belt.

Good luck, I hope I helped!

I'm am sooooo incredibly self conscious. i am 13 in the 8th grade, and im only a 34A. im reallly self concious becuase i think no guys will like me becuase im only a 34A! any advice?

Don't worry about it. Ot's true that guys prefer big boobs, but the guys who won't go out with a girl because she's flat-chested? They're assholes anyway. Seriously. Anyways, the girls in my grade (and I'm in 8th, like you) who are the most popular with the guys are mostly A and B cups.

If you're still self-concious, try to focus on what features of yourself you find beautiful. Make a list, and make an effort to wear clothes and make-up that emphasize those features. If you have pretty eyes, wear eyeshadow that makes your eyes pop. If you have really toned arms/legs, wear tank-tops/capris. And always carry yourself like you're the hottest girl in the room; don't be cocky, but if YOU believe that you're gorgeous, so will everyone else.

Good luck, I hope I helped! :)

P.S. Have you ever read Seventeen magazine? They often have sections in their issues about dressing for your shape, and they might have suggestions for tops so you can look like you have a larger chest.

i need a good idea of what to say in my speech for running for middle school president. i also need a couple of ideas of what i should pass out. cany, stickers, ect. thanks for the help!

For your speech:
-Mention that you will represent the voices of all the middle school, not just you and your friends.

-Cover all the main points, but don't talk for too long. Don't let people get bored.

-I'm not sure what student government does specifically at your school, but talk about specific things you'll do as president. For example, if the president would plan the dances, you can talk about getting good DJ's.

For the rest of your campaign:
-Make posters. They should all be colorful, have your name (really big), your picture, what you're running for, and preferably and catchy or funny slogan. The slogan can be anything from "Got [your name here]?" to "Vote for me! I don't jaywalk!"

-If you can, take blank white sticky labels and write "Vote For [Your Name] For President!" on them. Then pass them out to your friends and have them wear them. My friend did that and almost everyone in my grade was wearing them.

-MAKE COOKIES. Seriously. I ran for student government last year, made cookies, and won. Coincidince? I think not.

-Ask people's opinions. I'm running for Social Chair this year, so I went up to everyone in my class one day at lunch and asked people what they would change about the school dances. I wrote all the answers down and actually got some really good information, AND it showed people that I cared about what they thought.

Good luck with election, I hope you win :)

hi, ok i live in britain, and was just wandering if the USA is really like what we see on tv shows or movies. the whole nice weather, youthful fun thing? like the OC and stuff like grease etc. because here in the UK there is virtually minimal youthful fun or whatever you want to call it. thanks in advance.

I don't think the USA is correctly portrayed on the O.C. There are definitely places like that in the country, but not everywhere. The weather thing really, really varies; in many places, they get snow in the winter, and in others, it's sunny all year round. As for youthful fun, I really doubt it's any different from the UK. I think they just like to put people like that on T.V. because it makes for good entertainment, not because every American teen is like that.

My school has a huge talent show every year and i need some help thinking of a one man act. It needs to be 2-3 minutes long and stupid/funny... Any idea is a good idea... The dumber the better...

-Write a rap. Something really, really stupid.

-Better yet, if you're white or asian, you could sing "Ridin'" by Chamillionare.

-Sing the Super Mario Brothers theme song, over and over again.

-Sing the Mexican Hat Dance. While dancing.

-Do interpretive dance to heavy metal.

-Do the macarena/the hokey pokey.

-Sing some really cliched talent show song (like "Amazing Grace") really, really badly.

-Make up a dance routine to some horrible dance song from the 90's.

-Play the kazoo.

-Tell some stupid, pointless, anecdote and drag it out for as long as you can.

I hope I helped :)

Okay, so basically me: I'm a rocker chic who digs Metallica, 3dg, AFI, MCR, Flyleaf, and Circa Survive and a WHOLE lot more. I've known to be emo a lot of time but really, I don't like to label. I'm a rebellious, outspoken, fun girl that sometimes eh, has suicidal moments in life. I also love, love, love music. It's my life. I'm very artsy (Literature, drawing, usic wise) and random a lot.

So, my question is: What shall my new sn be? Someone suggested music whore. but I'm looking for new ones too.

BUT PLEASE. Make it sensible and funny. No I love you kisses or oxox xoxo stuff in there. I am not one of those girls that goes "Oh my gosh! PINK!" I'm the girl that goes "OH MY GOSH! THAT GUITAR IS SWEET" I need to talk to a lot of people on this sn and I don't truely reveal myself to others unless they are very close to me. So no depressing, emo sounding things. Okays? THANKS VERY MUCH.

-r_e_b_e_l

Ok, well, every Thursday I'm not aloud to wear anything jean. I was wondering where some places were that have not very expensive pants, sweats, skirts, really anything. (Price range-$20.00- $50.00) Thanks!

-I absolutely adore the skirts from American Apparel. They're adorable, moderately inexpensive, comfortable, good quality, and pretty basic so you can match them with anything.

-The sweat pants from Victoria's secret are cute, comfy, trendy, and in your price range: http://search.victoriassecret.com/?q=pink&submit.x=0&submit.y=0&submit=Search

-Gap and Old Navy have great pants and skirts.

-If want something funkier, they have really cool stuff at Urban Outfitters. Their stuff is a little pricier, but you'll be able to find stuff under $50.

-Wet Seal and Forever 21 have cool stuff and are really cheap. They're more on the preppy/boho side.

-www.gojane.com has a lot of really cute, affordable things.

Good luck, I hope I helped :)

I am in 10th grade, and last year i switched into Private school for High school...i'd gone to public school my whole life. It's an all girls private school...which, i know, sucks...but its a reallllly good school. I still see all of my friends from my old school...just not during the week. In fact i hang out with them, more than the people from my school. The thing is that recently, when i am hanging out with my [public school] friends, or at the football games i have been reallly regretting leaving. I love my private school and it is a really good school, but i cant help but wish that i was back in public schools with all of my friends...i can be really hyper and really fun with all of my public school friends and i am pretty quiet in my private school...b/c i dont really know them as well.

WHAT DO I DO!?!?!?

I think you should stick to your school. Getting to go to a private school is a really great oppurtunity that many kids don't have, so you should by all means stick to your school.

I've never changed schools, but some of my friends have, and from what I can tell, it's really difficult to make the transition. But I think you should put a lot of effort into making new friends at your school. Try to be friendly. You can start small, like by complimenting a girl on her hair or asking a classmate how her weekend was. Some girls might be mean, but if you just keep trying to find a friend, you'll eventually discover someone really cool. If you go back to public school, you may miss out on the chance to make really good new friends :)

Good luck, and I hope I helped!

If she had all the same beliefs as you, would you vote for her? Tell me Why?

I Need this for a project, thanks.

I would vote for any candidate that I thought would be best for the job, regardless of gender, race, religion, sexual orientation, etc.

And if the person I thought was the best candidate happened to be a woman, I would be even more inclined to vote for her, because I would love to see a woman be president and show the world that men and women are equal. (Woah, run on sentence. Sorry)
