Ok, I LOVE my current hairstyle; a clean, sleek side bang off to the right one. Unfortunately, I have a rather horrid cowlick right in the middle of it! It makes my bangs all piecy and makes them look really bad. Is there anyway to tame it? Or better yet, get rid of it completly? I've tried hairspray and gel, but yes, it's that bad, so no, it doesn't work :[ please help, I REALLY don't want a new hairstyle!!! (link)

so an ex of mine from about three months ago wants me back. we havent seen each other at school very much the past month and last month he decided to ask a friend of both of ours out- not a good friend of mine though- and she turned him down. Then last saturday at a fundraiser for our wrestling team, he was there and we started talking, and he tried to kiss me. well, ever since last weekend, he keeps hinting that he wants to go back out with me and that he is gonna let me know what the deal is on fiday, as in, what his thoughts are. so he might ask me out on friday. now, i dont know if i want to go back out with him. here are the pro's and con's
pros:
My best friend erika, who knows the whole story, told me that i should give him another chance, and i trust her.

he was sweet when we dated, and i was happy with him.

he has changed in some good ways.

we are no longer on the wrestling team, so less having to keep a secret from the team that we were dating, cuz we'd have gotten in trouble.

these two girls that were causing major problems with us, are no lo9nger in the picture.

i like being around him.

his mom might lay off- his mom really really didnt like me. shes seriosuly a freeeeaaakkk.
she told me that she didnt want him being in a relationship at the time and she told me that if i didnt stay away from him then she'd file a restraining order against me. lol

con's

phsycho mom

parents dont like him

when we werent together, he went back and forth with girls

some friends dont want me to date him again.

please help me with what i should do!!! (link)
wellll if you like him and he asks you out say yes. but if you don't really like him and your just going out with him for the heck of it. follow your heart.


I got a Canon Digital Rebel XTi Camera for my birthday.
My mother LOVES taking photos.(We took SEVENTY for Easter alone.) Well, honestly, resizing these take forever,. I mean, it takes a WHILE.
Is there anywhere where I can resize a mass of photos at once, (imageshack is slow and you can only resize one.)
Or, is there a way to make my camera take smaller photos? My previous camera had this setting, and I can't find it on my new one. The pictures are approx. 3800 x 2500. that's humongoussss. (link)
irfanview
that program is free
just google it
you can only resize one at a time but it does it really really fast and its super easy. i downloaded that program JUST to resize because its so quick and easy!
hope that helps.


I just turned 16 and I'm of course a girl. I never cared about what I wore to school, mostly it was jeans and t-shirts with a pony-tail, right? Well maybe two weeks ago I got the nerve to talk to this guy I've been crushing on for a while and he was nice, but only in a "I'm being nice only until someone else comes along." I dunno what switch went off in my body, but all of the sudden I wanted to be a "GIRL" for once. I wanted to flirt, I wanted to be the one the guy comes up and talks to just to talk. I felt like I could do it, but I didn't know how to do it. I know I am a girl but the main question is... How do I be a "girl"? Is it a natural thing or do I have to practice? Any help is great.

Thanks to anyone,
The tomboy turned girly-girl (link)
just be yourself.
if you want to be all flirty, be flirty.
if you feel like dressing down and putting your hair up go for it. or if you feel like getting all pretty and styling your hair, do that to.
its nothing you can practice.
just be yourself =]


there is this song that me and my sister remember but i have no idea who sings it but i am pretty sure it is by a 90's or early 00's R&B group.
the lyrics that we know are:
i don't know where the beat has gone
i don't know
i don't know
i don't know where the beat has gone
i'm missing you
yea yea
yea yea
If anyone knows what this song is i will be very appreciative!!!!! (link)

I really really like flared jeans, especially the huge ones (that go over your whole foot) i was just wondering if they are actually in style or whatever. I will still wear them even if they are "uncool" but I was just wondering thanks (link)
those aren't really in. but i wouldn't be surprised if they came back in style in the next few years cos the 60s 70s styles are coming back.

hope i helped =]

I'm an underclassmen and my boyfriend is a senior. He asked me to prom a couple days ago and I've been trying to figure it all out ever since. At my school, underclassmen rarely go so no one can give me any advice. Since it's technically not "my" prom, should I keep it simple and not do anything too fancy??

Another thing, the place they're having prom is kind of small and everyone is telling me it's gonna be extremely hot and everyone is going to sweat. Are there any good deodorants you recommend? What should do about my breath, too? I hate bad breath more than anything and I'm constantly chewing gum but I don't want to hold a pack of gum in my hand the whole time and I also don't want to have to run back to my purse every 5 seconds to chew a new piece. A lot of mints, like altoids, make your breath smell worse in the end!! so what do you think is a good way to keep fresh breath when I'm getting dehydrated and hot?

And also, for those of you who have already been to prom, is there anything that you suggest I bring on the limo? Like anything I might need? Should I bring clothes to change into? Other items?? (link)
for the deodorant use certain dri like everyday for a week before the prom. it will close the pores in your armpits so you won't sweat as much. you can buy it at a drug store (walgreens/eckerds/rite aid/cvs) and its only a couple of dollars.
and for bad breath you can use a tongue scraper before you go because most of your bad breath comes from bacteria in your tongue. so that should help.

i hope this helps =]

I want some songs that are like, they have different parts of different songs in them like how you see hip hop dancing and the song changes part of the way through to something else.

I was wondering if anyone knew any that were on myspace? Or something like "hip hop collaberations" or something i could search that would help me find some.

Many thanks. (link)
they use alot of those in songs for cheer routines. you could search something like that. i'm not exactly sure where to find them though. i'd search it on google and limewire though.

hope i helped =]

Ok I want to lose about 35 pounds, and I don't care much about hearing about the healthy way to do things. Lately things have been kind of hard for me and I have lost my appetite, and it just so happens I want to lose weight, too. I don't eat anything most days, and when I do eat, it's only one meal a day (supper). I'm guessing I consume 900-1000 cals a day maximum. People say you will lose muscle first, and then your metabolism slows, and you won't lose ANY fat if you do that. However I've noticed my uniform skirt fits me way looser, and my dad said my face was getting really thin. I have been eating like this for about 2 weeks. So my question is, even though they say you just lose water weight etc, is it possible that I'm losing fat ?


Oh and I haven't been super weak or anything.
Just literally NEVER hungry. (link)
It is possible that you are loosing a little fat, but most of this is probably water weight, which you can easily gain back.
if you are only going to eat one meal a day, dinner is not a good one to choose.
i know its easiest because you are with your parents and they want you to eat. but its late at night and eating all of those calories before you go to bed is hurting you in the long run in loosing weight.
instead try eating a small breakfast like an apple. apples have lots of fiber and it will keep you full. fiber is an important nutrient when it comes to loosing weight. also eating breakfast starts your metabolism so its easier for your body to burn fat and calories through out the day.
if you want to loose weight quicker its important that you exercise for atleast 30 minutes a day doing cardio (dancing, jumping jacks, running, kick boxing, etc;) you might be able to find an exercise routine on FitTV. and if you have digital cable channel 557 is exercise on demand.
and i know i can't make you eat but if you are choosing not to. which you really should eat. take a multi-vitamin so you will stay healthy.


hope i helped & if you have anymore questions feel free to ask.

I think that my really good friend Abbie has an eating disorder. Here are some of the things I see her doing that are signs of bulimic :
-barely eating anything'
-always going to the bathroom after eating something little
-she wears BIG baggy clothes
-she is dizzy alot

Im pretty sure that she needs help. Ive tried talking to her about it and she says she doesnt have an eating disorder and that she doesnt need help. Im really concerned about her, Ive tried telling her that too but she just gets mad and wont talk to me till I apoligize,

Please help me really fast.
Im accepting any and all advice !!!!

Thank you
=]] (link)
actually, most people with bulimia LOVE food. they binge and purge. a bulimic person will sit down and eat a whole box of donuts and then throw it up.
anorexic people barely eat anything.

but she could be bulimic, but from what i hear it sounds like she is anorexic. or she might be both.

the best thing to do is tell a trusted adult.
try talking to your school counselor and tell her you are worried about your friend.

hope i helped

Okay, like 2 weeks ago I was very popular. I was bffl with the most popular person. The only reason I was popular was because of her. We have been friends since kindergarton. But then, this rumor spread out around me. It was that I had been talking mad shit about my bffl. She found out and didnt believe me when I tried to tell her that it was just a rumor and that i never said that. but, she doesnt believe me. Ive tried everything. Now, she is turning basically the whole school against me. I have like 2 friends left. My old friends keep calling and leaving me messages saying that im ugly and i dont have a life. they making me miserable.

at night i just cry, but that didnt get the pain out so ive started snapping hair bands on my wrist.
i know its bad, but....

please help me! (link)
hurting yourself physically is just going to hurt you in the long run.
and this WILL blow over.
it sounds like middle school drama.
and if you ARE in middle school then there is a chance it will blow over very quickly.
try making new friends. nicer friends.
there is always a chance for a fresh start and yours will come soon.
whether its the new semester, after summer, or going into highschool.

if you every want someone to talk to you can always email me at jessipaige1@gmail.com

life will get better and all of this will blow over. and six months from now you will look back and say "i am so dumb for trying to hurt myself and being sad all the time. i should have just looked at the positive side of things."

i hope i helped =]
