I always like to act and dress up like a little kid sometimes (I'm 16!) and sometimes I have this urge to scream or shout I HAVE DOWN SYNDROME =] when I'm outside.
But i was just wondering if it will be offensive? Because I think down syndrom is a mental disability( or correct me if I'm wrong) so it will be offensive to many people? (link)

Down Syndrome is a sensitive subject for a lot of people. I'd really be careful with what you say and do because you don't know who knows who. Somebody might know someone with Down Syndrome and you don't know it and you could have triggered something. I would be very cautious about doing it...I wouldn't to be completely honest just because you don't know who may be listening and get insulted. People seem to hide their personal lives really well.

So for my second year in a row, I have no plans for New Years. First I was supposed to have both of my best friends over for a sleepover. A few days after we made the plans, one of my friends admitted she had to stay home with her parents because they will have guests. Just a few moments ago, my other best friend told me that she can no longer come over either, she cannot get a ride home from her dad`s house and doesn`t feel like taking the bus. She doesn`t even sound disappointed, she will be with her cousin (her other best friend..). They just think I am whining when I say how disappointed I am. I can`t even make other plans due to extenuating circumstances with basically every other person I know. What do I do?
I know I won`t be making plans with other people, I don`t have siblings .. and I will be sitting alone in my room. I guess I could act like it`s any other night and just go to bed, but that still doesn`t make me feel any better about how little my friends care. They just know they still have plans, and it techincally isn`t their fault that I will be alone. Thanks for the advice.. =( (link)

we can't all have new years plans that we're happy with. For the past 18 years I have spent New Year's with my parents and their friends of the family and their son who is three years younger than me...but i've made the most of it...It really can be fun. I don't have siblings either so I know where you're coming from...try throwing an impromptu party or see if there is a party going on in or near your neighborhood where you can meet new people or try hanging out with people that you maybe don't hang out with as much but you might find are in the same situation. You might find some new close friends. You can have your own little party...just kick back with some movies or something and relax...enjoy the fact that you don't have to worry about saying the right things or looking amazing, or finding the right person to kiss at midnight...just make the most of what you have and you're guaranteed to have a fantastic time.

Ok, this might be stupid, but this is the kind of hair that I want my hair like:
I'm getting my haircut soon and I want to know what to tell my hairresser what to do with my hair. I tried printing a picture but it didn't work very well :/. Help? I have a little longer than my shoulders light brown hair. It is layered but it's grown a lot. help? thanks :)

there are lots of pictures of hair like this...I'm sure one of them will print...or try finding a celebrity that has that hair cut and tell her that you want the same haircut as that celebrity or just describe what you want.

Well i used to be friends with the popular group, but i drifted away. We are still friendly, but not real friends. Well the group i joined had really nice and honest people, well, i thought. My mom never liked them. She thought that they would ditch me in a second, and they were sluts. Well that was 2 years ago, and one person, Hilary moved away, and she was bffls with Jess. Well Jess and i were amazingly close, until Hilary came to visit. Then Jess got weird, and disappeared when we were supposed to go out. She was out with Hilary every night this week, and i was home alone because i was supposed to hang out with them and they kept ditching me. What do i do? I cant leave this group now! I mean im in middle school, they are all i have!!! And i cant keep on getting ditched. THanks in advance

well she just came back in town...they probably miss hanging out with just her...but if they keep ditching you it's time to find new friends. They aren't your friends...and middle schooler or not you can always find new friends...just be yourself...people will like you for you I promise.

I want to change my msn adress...e-mail adrress. How do I do that? (link)
|
you're e-mail address is permanent...but you can always delete the account and make a new e-mail address or just make a new e-mail address..that's what I did...made the new account and then e-mailed my friends on my old account telling them to start e-mailing my new account and deleted the old one.

So for the past two months, I haven't been going to church every Sunday, like AT ALL due to a fight that my aunt and my mom had and I got sucked in their problem making my relationship with my aunt nonexistent. This morning, I said sorry to my aunt and we're OK now but the church is my problem because there's a lot of nosy people at church questioning WHY I haven't been at church. What should I say? I can't tell the truth because it's really stupid and ridiculous and I don't want them to see me as childish and an immature brat. But on another note, I don't want to lie under God so... if there is such thing as a "true lie" can you please give me advice on what I should do? Thanks. (link)
|
there's no such thing as a true lie...tell the truth or don't answer questions. It may seem foolish...but whose opinion really matters in the end?

could teeth whitening ever cover up years of not brushing?
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v721/fembott/7%20Senior/3%20November/b6f648f0.jpg
i wanna go from teeth on left to teeth on right!
would crest whitestrips help or do i need to take more drastic measures and go laser or something? professional bleaching (link)
|
whitestrips will only whiten your teeth a couple of shades...I would suggest professional whitening like Zoom. That will whiten your teeth more drastically. whitestrips will only work for a while too. If you drink a lot of cokes, coffees, or teas they stain your teeth and lessing the whitening effect...so I suggest getting a whitening done at your dentist and then brushing with Colgate total because it will keep all of the food and drink stains away and flossing at least twice a day because food that gets caught under gums and in between teeth also causes discoloration.

Is it unhealthy to drink 4 cups of water within an hour without doing any physical activity? I am 125 pounds if that matters. I know that it is better to drink water throughout the day and not just at once, and I don't want to "drown my cells" or anything. Thanks! (link)
|
drink as much water as you want...but it's best to do some activity throughout the day because otherwise the water just accumulates and will cause bloating...but it's fine.

I'm 18 and I'm getting my first credit card. I'm enrolled in college. I just want the best credit card. I just need to start getting credit. (link)
|
I suggest looking into a card that has all of the features that you personally need. If you think you'll be doing some traveling get one that has a great miles program. If you really want to save some money get a card that will put the change from your purchases into you're savings account. If you are looking for something flexible get a card that will allow you to change your plan as you please. Shop around and find the card that fits your needs best, then go to that bank and set up an account and remember that it's always best to pay the full amount rather than the 10% because that's how people fall into debt. Never buy something unless you already have the money for it in the bank, and remember that it's not instant money...you'll have to pay it off when the bill comes in. I know people that have made these mistakes and I did everything I could to avoid them and my credit is great. I've got an American Express Card that rounds all of my purchases up to the next dollar and the change goes straight to my savings account. it's wonderful. so do your homework and figure out what's the best plan for you.

i was born on jan 19 and im confused on whether i should consider myself a capricorn or aquarius or a little both.. cause i seem to have both traits.. and im not really like traditional capricorns though im not ALL like aquarius either.. or is all this astrology stuff a load of shit? (link)
|
well I think astrology is a load of bull considering its a pseudoscience (false science). But I must say that I'm a Leo and pretty much like my sign...but no one is exactly like their sign. Some people believe in astrology and others don't...whatever you're birthdate falls on thats what if falls on and that's your sign...whether or not your like it.

|
give her time to grow up...in time she will grow out of it...you were probably the same way when you were her age...you'll say you weren't but chances are you were. We're all annoying when we're young. As she grows up she'll snap out of it and change. Siblings are pretty much made to annoy us...its their job..and they're good at it. Cherish the time that you have together. She may be all you have one day. Just breathe. She'll change soon enough.

I was wondering if anyone knew the website for watching newer movies online for free. I've been on it before but I forgot what it was. If you know it, please help me out. Thank you so much. (link)
|
well I use watch-movies.net
|
Is there a place to watch the FULL movie Juno online
ive looked every were and cant find it
so can you please give me a link if you positively know for sure
:]
Thanks :D (link)
|
not yet...since it just came out for wide release on Christmas day no one has uploaded it yet...check watch-movies.net in about a week it should be on there by then...it's not there now...I just looked. But since it just had wide release why not go see it in a theater near you. The quality will be much better anyway.

im 16 - 5'8 - 138 lbs. I used to weigh 150 but recently I've been working out alot and eating healthy. I still have 8 more lbs. to go before I'm at my goal weight but I can't seem to lose anymore weight! I exercise twice a day (mostly cardio) and I eat super healthy. I haven't even been able to lsoe one pound in a week and I've tried exercising more, eating less, I even take a motabolism booster now and NOTHING. what can i do to lsoe those last few pounds? (link)
|
everyones body is different...and you have to remember that setting a goal weight isn't always smart...try setting a goal size instead...muscle weighs more than fat and just because you aren't losing weight doesn't mean you aren't losing inches. Don't over exercise either...too much exercise can be really hard on your body...just keep eating healthy...try cutting down to 5 or 6 small meals a day instead of 3 bigger ones and cut back on your exercise...you have to have carbs and food in your body when you exercise or you'll crash so be careful and eat more than you are and don't over exercise...the number may not be what you want but your body will be.

We're changing classes in a few days and one of my classes is gym(ugh!) my question is though do i go to the gym or the classroom number? or is that the number for the gym? I know you guys probably dont know, but anythign will help! (link)
|
well at my school it was the gym...I would check the gym...see if people are there and if the numbers match...if so then you know your in the right place

how do i know the songs that are played on the hills? coz i wanna know the soundtracks coz i like them but i dont know the title and the artists :(
any sites? I tried google but i cant find it still
:( (link)
|
MTV does this new thing...when a song comes on...the name and artist does in the top right hand corner...but if you go to thehills.mtv.com I'm pretty sure they have some stuff too.
|
why do you have to drink a lot of liquids when sick? how much is a lot? (link)
|
liquids keep you hydrated...and drinks like gatorade (which you're supposed to drink when you vomit) restore electrolytes so your body doesn't get too weak. I don't think there is really a limit to how much you should drink...that would be a question to ask your doctor.

I like people who talk alot because I enjoy listening to what they have to say. Also, the more talking they do, the less you have to do. However, for some reason, some people don't like people who talk all the time, and i can't imagine why. As long as they don't talk only about themselves (and they're good listeners) then I don't see what the problem is. To me, they seem like good conversationalists and are the type of people you'd want to hang out with. They're good entertainers who always have something to say. Since some people disagree, I want to know, is it really better to be a person who talks all the time, or not? Thanks (link)
|
well I talk all the time...and people seem to like me (not trying to be conceited...it's true lol) but I know that I can sometimes be annoying to people who are a little less social and don't talk a lot...those who are shy seem a bit scared of the fact that I am talkative, but a lot of people who are shy seem standoffish and anti-social to many people...I don't think there is a win win situation.

If I am early decision-ing to a school and I don't know if I got in yet, but say that I do. Then, how much does the midyear report matter? (ex: C's and D's)? And do your final grades at the end of the year make a difference? Do the colleges see that as well? (link)
|
they do get your final transcript...senioritis is not something that you want to catch...if you fail or get a grade below their expectations based on your other grades including your first semester of senior year they can..and usually will retract your acceptance so keep up trying...don't slack off. Everyone says that senior year is cake...it's probably the hardest year of HS...just keep your grades up.

i am a freshman and they are having a whole gift exchange thing at my all girls school. i didn't make any really great friends, but i still want to get them something because there is a specified time for "gift exchange" next week.
what should i get for my classmates? (link)
|
I would definitely go with a gift card to some place kind of general like Target or something...they can get whatever they want and there's no complaining
