Hey everybody. I've love giving advice so I'll answer every question I can. If you need any advice on anything, just ask me! A little about me- I play tennis and I love to shop and hang out at my pool with friends. I'll be a sophomore in high school this year so I've had plenty of experience on friendship and relationships. I always try to take my time and answer every question thoughtfully. I don't care about ratings or any of that, I just want to help people out. :-)

You sound really pretty, I bet you are! If you aren't conviced, just expieriemnt with different kinds of makeup until you find what looks good on you. Work with a bunch of different colors and you'll figure out what makes you look best. But remember not to worry about looks so much. If you're nice and friendly then people will like you no matter what you look like.

Hey, I'm Rae! Well, I recently got into the band HAWTHORNE HEIGHTS! I really love that band! I became an instant fan after hearing one song! Lol! Well, I wanted to know what other bands are like Hawthorne Heights? I really love Hawthorne Heights and want to know other bands like them! Thanks so much! - Rae.
Here's some of my favorite bands, they kind of have similar music. Fall Out Boy, Motion City Soundtrack, Death Cab for Cutie, All American Rejects, The Starting Line. Hope this helps!

i need to know what these words mean. sketchy is one, and the other i was asked "do you like being teased?" and, well dunno what that meant, please help me out! and please dont make fun of me. im homeschooled, and just got into a real school, so im a lil late on everything...haha
Sketchy is hard to explain but I guess it's like when you're a little rough around the edges, or everything isn't quite all there. You might have some weird nervous habits too. "Do you like being teased" could mean "Do you like being made fun of" or it could have a sexual meaning. Hope this helps!

anyone know a good recipe for a low-fat fruit smoothie. not something you just got off google though. something yummmmy :D
Ok I make this smoothie all the time and its so good. In a blender, pour in one can of Diet Mountain Dew (or other diet lemon-lime soda), about 3/4 cup of light strawberry yogurt, and about 2 cups of frozen strawberries. It's really good I promise! And it's only like 140 calories.

I need a new tennis racket but I'm not sure what kind to get. Any suggestions from tennis players?
I've always used Prince racquets, but it totally depends on the player. Go to a tennis club and see if you can demo some different racuqets. Or go to tenniswarehouse.com, and they'll send you a racquet to try and you send it back after a week.

Ur so pretty! What kind of eyeliner do u use?? I've always wanted my eyes 2 llook like that but it never works!
//sarah
Thank you! The eyeliner I use is CoverGirl Perfect Point Plus in black. I used to do it really light and blend it in but I realized that didn't look too good so now I just do one hard line of eyeliner on my upper eyelid, along the lashes. Make sure it's not too thick or it will look trashy!

i am trying to go on a diet and it works for a day then the next day i totally pig out! then i regret it and the process starts over! does anyone have any dieting tips?
I used to do that too, but recently I've been eatin a lot healthier. First, don't think of it as a "diet." Try to think of it more as just eating healthier. Can you rule out certain foods? I try to avoid cookies, cake, and chips. If you feel a need to eat fatfull foods, limit yourself to only a little bit. Set a goal weight. Say "I want to weigh (lbs) by (date)" Then next time you want to eat a lot you'll tell yourself not to because you have to get to your goal weight. I've been doing this and I've lost 6 lbs in the last 2 weeks!

does anyone know how to make really good smokey eyes like how they have it in the magazines and stuff?
Well this is what I do for smokey eyes it and looks pretty. I use black eyeliner (CoverGirl Perfect Point Plus), kind of thick but not trashy looking. Then I have a grayish-silvery eyeshadow cream. I apply it like eyeshadow on my eyelids. Just experiment with different kinds of makeup and colors. You'll find what looks good!

i am just wondering why people put lemon juice in there hair. i am not bein mean but i just wanna know what it does
thanks
Supposedly it makes blonde highlights in your hair if you lay out in the sun with the lemon juice in it. I've never tried it but that's what people say.

Well theres this new line of eye make up[[Instence eyes i think its by Alaba or something like that...]] it brings out brown eyes [[its eyeshadow,eyeliner,and mascara]] I would like to get it but are they expensive? and are they worth the money? and also where can i buy these?
It's called Intense Eye Makeup by Almay. My friend has it and it looks really pretty on her. She has the brown and blue one but you can get them in different shades. They probably cost between $5-10. You can buy them at any drugstore or a place like Walmart or Target that has makeup.

Ok,well i haven't my period yet [[and im 13..]] My mom got it when she was 13,my sister got it when she was 14. Does this run in the family that i'll get it either this year or when im 14? or would i be different? i really just want to get it over with instead of being afraid it'll happen when im in school or somewhere everyone can see it !!
Yes, it usually will come around the same time that your relatives got theirs. You should expect to get it any time now, but of course if could be awhile. It's not always the same as your mom's or sister's. And just be happy that you don't have to deal with it yet, trust me it's a pain!

Have you tried tennis? I'm a tennis player and I absolutely love it. The benefits are endless- getting in shape (I lost 7 pounds last season!), making new friends, and playing a sports that's really fun. Especially if you're not into team sports, and you'd rather do something that you can play 1-on-1. If it sounds fun to you, go to the park and start playing a little so you have an idea of what to do when tryouts roll around. If you have any questions, please ask!

Does anyone know what Johanna from the Real World is using on her hair in one of the episodes. It curls her hair but it has 3 circular rolls?
Yeah I know what you're talking about...that thing is cool. I bet if you looked in the section where they have straightenrs/curling irons you could find one.

Hmm...well it depends on what he's into. Some ideas that would work for any guy are a funny t-shirt, cologne, a CD (hopefully you know what he listens to!) or a DVD. Hope this helps!

me n my bf are gonna go to the movies.. i really like him and i dont want to rush anything but i kinda want to kiss him idk wat to do.. im not a teenager yet..!
Aww! Sounds fun! Don't worry about it too much, just go to have fun. If the opportunity arises to kiss him and you are both having an awesome time, go for it. I'm sure he'd love it! But don't spend the whole night worrying about when and if you're gonna kiss. Just let it happen naturally. :-)

You see.. i got back on weight watchers this week because my school's starting soon (too soon) and i want to slim down so I'm not the biggest girl in my class anymore. What are some fast pace exercises i can do (websites) or what are some tips. The weight watchers is working, slowly, but i want to speed up the process.
Thanx
The best way to lose weight is just to get out and play a sport. Even if you aren't any good, it's still gonna burn calories. Go to the park and play tennis, go out to the driveway and play basketball (assuming you have a hoop), go for a run around the neighborhood, or get some friends together and play some backyard football. If you aren't much of a sports person, you should do cardio aerobics. Check out this website: http://www.shapefit.com/cardio-exercises.html. Hope that helps + good luck!
