First I would like to point out that I'm not as ghostly white as my picture looks. I actually have a really nice tan. :)

Hey, I just read this for the first time in a long time and I realized I sounded like a complete female Rainman. Anyway, I'm pretty much amazing, haha. I love to help people out with minor or major problems, so you ask me anything and I will answer it to the best of my ability! My favorite topics to give advice on are DEBATE, FRIENDS, POLITICS, MUSIC, and SPORTS (a recent thing!). I'm a typical Texas (college) football fan. That's pretty much it, so get to asking questions and stop reading this! :)

You can use a shampoo called Mane and Tail. It's a horse and human shampoo that makes your hair shiny, smooth, and makes it grow faster.


Hey im 15/f i just got braces a little over a month ago.. and before i got braces i was really outgoing and was always wanted to be the center of attention. But now that i have braces i've noticed that i dont want to be that anymore because of my braces.. i guess im self consious.. Is there anything i can tell myself or do to make me become less self consious and be myself again? Any advice would help! thanks (link)
A lot of people have braces and look totally hot with them. It gives you an excuse to talk to people since you just got them on. Don't change who you are just because you have them because you'll get used to acting like that and when you get them off you wont be outgoing anymore.

just find a quote in english then go to www.freetranslations.com and type it in.

it's good for you to a certain extent. Try not to drink it ALL the time. Drink regular water sometimes.

It makes you sweat more so you lose water weight. Tell her to use plastic wrap, it works better. Yes, it does work but only for water weight.


my mom reads all my stuff. including instant messages. and like, i can't make her go so i can talk privatley. but, today i come home from a trip and she's going to make me talk to these people online and

#1: i don't want to tell them what she wants me to tell them
#2: i don't want her to see the convo because i'm afraid the other person is going to talk about stuff

please help me fast! i can't just tell her *stay out* because that won't work! i've tried that already but she won't stop. help me please!

thank you! (link)
Make a code word with all of your friends to let them know your mom is reading your conversations. So, everytime she is in the room send the word and change subjects. You could send this, *random*, and if she asks what it means then tell her it's just a fun way of talking about different things.


my lips are so small and so is my mouth and kinda my teeth! lol and well im 16/f and i hate my smile because my lips are small and my mouth which makes my smile really ugly and like really unopen if you know what i mean?! is there anything i can do to make my lips look any bigger without having to put like loads of lisptick or lipliner on because i dont wear any of that just lipgloss! (link)
There's this lipgloss at Walmart that is a plumping gloss. It kind of stings your lips, a nice feeling sting, and it makes them poutier and puts more color in them. I use it and actually get compliments on my lips, a weird compliment, I know. Try it out, it only costs a few dollars. Just make sure you don't get any on your tongue, it will kind of make it numb on the end, but only if you get a TON on it. A friend of mine ate some and he drooled for a good 30 minutes.




a friend of mine was recently telling me that 'im his bffff (link)
Tell him something that's not personal and that you wouldn't care if he told people. Make sure you say "Don't tell anyone," and see if he tells people.


hi 14/f
im 5,5 and 125 pounds
is that fat normal
please help me
if i am fat
how do i get skinny? (link)
You aren't at all fat. Anyway, it doesn't matter what your weight is, all that matters is your BMI. It shows the percent of body fat you have. Remember, muscle weighs more than fat. If you want to get toned up then join a gym, like Curves, and they will weigh and measure you and tell you your BMI and have you set a goal.


Sorry, I think a lot of people ask this question but I don't know yet.

Well, I'm on a cheerleading squad and this is my week to bring in a CD of dance music. I would like to make a mix on the computer but I don't know a program or how to do it. And if it's possible, I would like if I could get music from the internet and put parts of it together with other songs. Like I have some songs in mind but I don't have those CD's. Does anybody know what I'm talking about? Could you help me out please? (link)
Limewire will give your computer viruses. Use Bearshare. It doesn't take long for songs to burn and you can also burn videos if you wanted to. Bearshare has almost every song out there, some in karaoke version. Just got to www.bearshare.com and download it.


13/f .. This is my 8th grade year of cheerleading , but we don't have to try out to be on the team or anything , but I would like to make LaSalle Cheerleading, and you have to be required to do some flips and toe touches. I would like to know how to get a toe touch down , like a good one .. I got one year ... And would I look incrediably stupid if I decided to start gymnastics? I'm not flexiable at all && I can't even do a kartwheel. Thankss =) (link)
Most cheerleaders take gymnastics or tumbling classes so you wouldn't look stupid. Go for it.

Try anything by Chiodos or Head Automatica. They are both great.


what's the major differences between middle school and high school? i am going to be a freshman and i'd like to know some hints & the major differences. also, whats the first day like? thankyouu muchly. (link)
On the first day of highschool, all the upper classmen shove the freshmen into lockers and some in the nearest trashcan.

Just kidding...

On the first day, it's chaos for EVERYONE..except the seniors. The only big worry is finding your classes and finding your friends at lunch so you don't end up at a table by yourself. That's pretty much it. It's easy on the FIRST day, or the first and second days if you have block schedule. Day two you start working.

High school is just bigger and harder than middle school and something the upper classmen like to pick on the under classmen because they are new to the school and don't know it like they do. At first it will be confusing but when you find everything it will be so much easier and you'll have your friends there with you so they will be going through the same thing.

Hints for a good 4 years:
-don't talk about the upper classmen, they, or someone bigger, will try to kick your ass.
-don't try to steal boyfriends//girlfriends.
-don't act like you own the place just because you're out of middle school, the upper classmen don't like it and will pick on you and then they will end up shoving you into a locker, not kidding.
-be nice to everyone but if someone is pushing you around then stand up for yourself, even if it is an upper classmen, and make sure if you end up fighting that you can kick their ass.
-don't talk to the upper classmen unless they talk to you first.
-most of the upper classmen will call you "fish" or "fishie" or "stupid freshman" but that's only because you're new and most of them had to go through it when they were freshman.
-try to relax the first day, if you're late to a class don't sweat it, most teachers don't care if you're late, they just care that you actually came.

If you have any questions or need anymore advice for the first day or so, just drop a question in my inbox.


What is a good first car? That is really cute and safe of course. (link)
Any honda or toyota. I have a brand new honda civic and it has surround airbags and it's soooo cute! It rides really smooth and is very reliable!


Okay. So In september Im going to go see Kenny Chesney in Concert!! Which Im super excited Ive seen him 3 other times and this time im going with my boyfriend! WHICH ive always wanted. Someone that enjoys country music as much as I do. Im starting to go tanning as much as possible again since i just got a new job. but I know i want to wear somethin EXTRA cute. i think like the whole dress with cowboy boots thing is cute. but a dress for a concert? ehh. & i want it to be girly not a plaid shirt with jeans and boots. cuz its still gonna be hotter. I know ill get my hair and makeup done and i want the look to come together completely. Any Ideas?

THANNKS! (link)
I don't see why you shouldn't wear a dress and boots. There aren't mosh pits at country concerts so go for it. Since it's going to be hot, wear a short dress.


I have this swimming party on July 24. I weigh 147, 5'1, so im chunkey, or "fat". Well, I want a flat tummy. I will feel way much better. You know. Well this is what i have to loose weight, (my idea)



100 crunches, 100 calf phrases with 10 ilb. weights. go up by 5 every day.


eat only grilled chicken & fish. Salad, fruit, and drink water ONLY. Walk 15 minuetes after every meal. Smaller porportions. Skip exercise for only one day, that day only eat fruits & veggies.


So, does everyone think this is a fine plan? Thanks!


-Also. I want it to be REALLY flat. You know? soo, i meen im willing to do anything extra, i just dont have a bike and i CANNOT run. Thanks! (link)
I think you should do what holahayley56 said,they pretty much nailedit, but IF you don't get the results you want then you could always wear a really cute pair of boardshorts. They have super cute ones in the boys and mens departments at Wal Mart! Also, get some Tazo Zen green tea,it's in a green box. It might taste disgusting but it will flush the fatty toxins out of your body, better than water, and will make it easier to lose weight. It will also kick up your metabolism and give you a ton of energy so you don't feel groggy after exercise and such. Also try taking green tea pills or, just for the time you need to lose this weight, get Hydroxy cut. JUST take it the few weeks before the party but DO NOT take it after. Diet pills or anything like that can give you heart problems if you take them for too long. So, I repeat, ONLY take it until the party.


My dad pasted away from leukemia 4 months and 10 days ago (March 1st). Well right now, we're (my mom, brother, and I) in Ireland visiting family. We've been here for about 3 weeks. Well for then past 2 weeks my mom has been acting very different and forgetful. When she goes to do the dishes or something, when she's done, she'll come and sit down then get up and say that she needs to do the dishes. When she gets into the kitchen and sees that there are no dishes (because she already did them) she'll ask "Who did the dishes? I was about to do them!" It's so weird. She'll also repeats herself all the time and never wants to go out or do anything.


We're all so worried about her but we don't know what to do. My family members want us to get her to see a specialist here in Ireland but my brother and I want to cut our trip short and deal with it once we get back to the states. We don't know which is better.


At first we thought she's like this because of the loss of my dad but she's gone over 4 months without anything weird like this so why now? Any help?
(link)
I think she needs to get help as soon as possible. She could be developing schizophrenia or another type of personality disorder. Talking to her wont help, get her to a specialist as soon as you can. It doesn't matter how long ago it was, traumatic events have a serious effect on the mind. Sometimes people can't handle these events as well as others so it leads to personality disorders. Take the movie Hide and Seek for example. (a traumatic event turns a man schizophrenic)

I didn't say she was hearing voices at all and I wasn't comparing your life to a movie. I was just saying that if you wanted an EXAMPLE then to take a look at the plot of the movie, not the movie itself. I'm sorry if I offended you in any way, that really wasn't my intention. I was just trying to say that MAYBE she could have a personality disorder because she experienced a traumatic event.


i am going to a concert this saturday. its kind of pop-punk i guess. i really want to stand out in the crowd. what are some cute things i could wear. and are there any cool make-up or hairstyles i should do? (link)
ok first off, don't wear a shirt with the band's name on it, it's kind of a concert "don't" and trust me, I've been to many concerts. You can always reconstruct a shirt. If you have a shirt you think is cute but boring do this to it:

-first, fold the shirt in half so there is a line going down the back of the shirt
-then, cut into the shirt about 3 inches
-do this all the way down the shirt with 1 inch wide strips.
It should look like this:
___
___
___
down the back of the shirt
-after that, cut the strips in half and tie them together in knots.

OR

You can take 2 VERY different shirts, cut part of one off diagonally and the other the same way and then switch pieces and sew it onto the opposite shirt.


For your hair, if it's layered, get either wax or pomade and flip your head over and put a TINY bit all over your head except for the top of it and straighten it out so the layers seperate. If your hair isn't layered, put your hair half up and in a sloppy bun. Maybe put in some temporary colored hair dye? (not all over your head, just a few streaks or tips)


For make up, wear BRIGHT eye shadow (that matches your shirt or that looks good with it) and black eyeliner on the top and bottom of your eyes.
