hello! my name is amber and i have been through a lot over the years! my father died when i was 6 years old and 6 years later i developed an auto-immune disease called lupus. i have been in and out of the hospital many time and have been through severe pain physically, and mentally because of it. no question is too odd or confusing, and i will try my best to give you my best and most honest advice. i am very spiritual and into positive thinking, so i could also help you out with anything having to do with finding your way in life. love and light!

my lips are swollen from being so chapped.. i try chap stick and it doesnt seem to make it better. what can i do? (link)
| |
Chap stick usually doesn't work. Their just usually products that make your lips feel smooth for a few minutes, but then make you put on more later so you keep on buying it. You should go to a pharmacy, and get a special one recommended by doctors or something that will actually heel it. It mite be a little more expensive then the normal kind, but it's worth it because it actually works! :)

I know a really good exercise you can basically do anywhere, and works really good. I only did like 8 of them and my stomach was sore already. I'm pretty sure it's on this website, but it's from pilates. This site will show you how to do some pilates with and actual little clip. It's rite here ...

We're having a BBQ at our house in August and my mom is inviting this family that has a boy that im really crushing on! I don't know what kind of outfit I should wear! Should I wear shorts,capris, or jeans? Should I look casual or dressy casual since we ae the hosts? What kinds of styles should I look for and where?? (link)
| |
Well, if it;s a bbq, feinitly don't wear something dressy, it'll like like you're way to desperate. Dress casual, but look good. Think if anyone has said, "oh, you look good in that colour, or that looks good on you" . Ask a friend to help you, trust me if you get advice from people you know, and they know what you look like, and you trust you'll look great! Once i finally let my mom decide for me what to wear at this really fancy party, usually i wouldn't let her, but this time i did and everyone thought i looked awesome! Hope you have fun at the bbq! :)

well the ppl who i thought were my friends always go put and never bother to call me to ever go but then when they need a ride home they always seem to call me cause i can drive i cant stand it what should i do ? should i get new friends and let them know how i ffeel ....Ill rate!!! (link)
| |
omg! Yes you should totally get new friends! They're totally just using you, you should get friends that are nicer , and suit you more. You seem like a nice person, and they just seem mean. You don't have to be all snobby to your other friends, but just make new friends that actually like you for you, have fun with them, and give them rides, it'll make the other girls totally jealous ;)

You should get a doctors help! I have lupus also and if you don't take the pills you can get very sick!! I would also get someone to help, like a very close relative, or a very close friend that could help out around the house, and also help you out with things you need to deel with. I hope everything turns out better :)

hey. umm i have thin hair. and i dont know what to do with it. i seriously would like to know what kind of products or something that would make my hair appear thicker. thanks!
-i rate highh! (link)
| |
Some thing that makes my friends hair look thicker is curling it. If you have any curlers you can put some in occasionally. and if you don't like curly hair on you, than maybe try to do more stuff with uit like putting it up, or using bandanas or something so it doesn't look as noticeable. sry, I don't have thin hair, but i hope i helped a bit!:)

Ok there is this guy I like, lets call him Mike. So Mike is a year older than me (I am 15). So last week, he asked me if I wanted to go to the movies. We ended up going Friday with some of my friends and in the beginning I felt bad because I was kind of ignoring him. I was really like..scared which was why I was ignoring him (I know, it doesn't make any sense)
After the movie was over and everyone left but the both of us, we talked for a bit until my dad came to get me.
So then a day later, Sunday we talked for a little.
Then since he mentioned the day we were at the movies about just the two of us going next time, I asked him online and he was all like "It sounds like fun" and then said Wednesday would be the best and he hasnt brought it up since then.
It just seems like hes lost interest in me because a couple of days ago he would IM me as soon as I got online. He doesn't do that anymore and he barely talks to me. I asked him why he doesn't call me and he said its because his cell is broken or something. I don't know what I should do anymore. Any suggestions?
Ps. I rate 5's (link)
| |
It's probablly because he thinks that you're not overly excited to talk with him, so he doesn't want to act like a fool and talk to you a lot when it looks like you don't even seem interested. Yous should try to start the conversations more, and don't ignore him when you're with you're other friends, then he'll feel like you actually want to talk to him, so he'll probablly feel the same again.

13/f I love my best friend to death (in a friendship way don't worry), but in the last week we've gotten in minor disagreements every day. nothing big and she's ussually appologized for over reacting, but I'm wondering if our friendship is like dying. It could just be that it's the last day of school, but I have the kind of best friend that could also just be annoyed with me and is to nice to tell me. i sent her an email which im waiting for her to come home to read, so i dont need advice on what to do, just if you think my friendship is ending. i rate high. thanks. (link)
| |
No, your friend ship isn't ending don't worry. Me and my friend also kept on getting into little arguments like that then saying sorry after that, and i thought out friendship was just dying, and maybe we aren't the same anymore. The best thing to do, to end it, is to tell eachother everything that you've been thinking about the fights good and bad. Be able to open up and tell eachother what's been annoying you or what you dislike about the person! But don't try to take it that serious, just laugh about it together, or do what you'd normally do other then getting mad!

okay.. well ive been eating a lot lately.. probally because of this but whatever. today i ate a normal portion of food.. nothing too excessive. my stomach gets HUGE now after i eat and it gets hard.. its discusting accually.. i really want to know what it is because its keeping me from loosing any weight and even wearing fit clothes. (link)
| |
Hey, your probabally constipated. That once ahppened to me, andmy stomach was also hard and pretty round. What you should od is eat some fruits and some bran stuff that'll help it digest! Also what he;ped me a lot was drinking more water, it helps clear out your system, and helps dygest your food. Maybe you can also try going to the bathroom more often. :)

1- they really need more categories to put questions under..
2- im thinking of written a book on my life and people who changed me and stuff.. and im thinking how should i start it off... like start as my birthday for an example..
say June 20, 2006 at approx 11:19PM she was born or something...how should i start off the first chapter. and what kinda topics should i have. like birth, childhood, friends, and dedications and things. what else should i throw in?
thanks (link)
|
mybe you could start off a little bit about yourself or include that in the chapter. Heres one way you could start it off or maybe help...
I was looking back at all my baby pictures...I was born on ______ and had ____hair and ___ eyes, in one of the pictures i saw (one of the people that changed your life), and thought about how much he/she hanged my life.
Also in the chapter you could include stuff like your embaressing moments and your personality and stuff like that... Good luck on your book :)

yeah sorry about the subject but..
what do you do when all you can think about is this one person?
and everything you do in your life revolves around him...because you love him? but he doesn't love you?
i feel like, crap.
and what now.

aaww... im in the EXACT same situation and i just told the guy how i feel about him and all he said was "okay" :( What i'm doing is just talking to my friends about it (trust me they'll help mostly all the time). Also try to find other guys you would be interested in.. I'm sure some time you'll be over him and on to the next guy once you find another person. Also try to think that you're not the only one that's been threw this, there's millions of girls ,and guys who feel the same way, trust me ;)

this is very embarasing. but sometimes if i laugh a lot and very hard for a long time i pee my pants. its happened many times. is there anything i can do to stop this? (link)
| |
This has happened to me a few times also when i was lughing a for a long time :)I would try to when i start laughing at something thats very funny, think, do i have to go to the bathroom?, and just tell whoever you're with that you have to go or you'll be rite back. Unfortunately theres nuthin to stop that and it's very normal. A lot of my friends have done it too :) Hope i helped a bit!
