Hi. This is F/14.
My problem is (If this is a problem)I Have no pubic hair on my armpits and around vagina. My skin there is just like 8 year old girl. I started my periods one & a half year back. Is this a big problem. What may be the reason? I am worried about any future disease. Please advice?

What she said down there. Also, you don't get pubic hair under your arms. That's just regular hair.

how do you apply eyeliner to your bottom lids?

Do you mean putting eye liner on the bottom of your eye lid or to the bottom of your eye? I think you mean the bottom of your eye so I'll answer it that way. If not tell me and I'll tell you how to put it on the bottom of your top eye lid.


You can either put it on the white spot that's between your eye and bottom eye lashes or over your actual eye lashes.


Putting it on the white spot takes some practice (it did for me at least). If you're new to eyeliner you'll probably want to do it this way:
With one hand (your non dominate hand) pull down your bottom eye lid and with your other hand (dominate hand) just gild on the liner.


Once you get the hang of it you can do it all with one hand. Pull your eye lid down with your ring finger while holding the liner in your index and thumb.


Or, some people just put it on over their eye lashes. It just makes your bottom lashes look fuller. To do that I:
Stretch out my eye (while keeping it open) and just stroke the liner of my lashes a few times to get it as dark as I want.

okay for the past...5 days i have been sick. and when im sick i normally lose my apitite(spelling?) and eat like nothing. Im much better now and today my mom made me a great lunch (i had no breakfast because i woke up so late) but i could hardly eat any of it. I felt really full after 2 bites. Is this bad? or is it just from being sick?

P.S 15/f if that makes a difference

Your stomach can stretch and grow depending on how much you eat. Since you haven't been eating alot lately, it doesn't take much food to get you full anymore. Just gradually start eating more and more; don't do it all at once or you'll make yourself sick! You'll be able to eat more without getting full soon.

is it okay to have your period and go in the ocean wearing one of those wet suits and you DONT have a tampon on? or can you wear a napkin under the wet suit because i really like to swim in the ocean but i tampons. please help ill rate you high!

You can go in without anything but you run the chance of bleeding everywhere. No, the napkin/pad will just soak up the water and it will be useless. Plus you might be able to see it though the wet suit... The point of wearing a tampon while you are swimming instead of a pad is because since it's inside you, it won't soak up the water.

I'm thinking about getting my hair thinned. But, I have one question. What exactly do they do?

They take these special scissors and go to the middle of your hair and cut chunks out and leave about 2 inches.


It looks REALLY bad sometimes because the hair around the top of your head is thicker than the ends or your hair. It's also VERY annoying if you straighten your hair because you have to go back and get the shorter, 2 inch hairs that were cut.


My advice, don't go it, it looks bad when you wear it down and it's a hassle.

Usually I wouldn't recommend those fancy diets because I think the best way to loose weight is plan out exercise and watch what you eat. But, I have a teacher that lost 10 lbs in 2 weeks on the South Beach Diet and he swears by it. We all could really tell the difference too.


So I'd give that a try. But keep in mind that guys do loose weight faster and easier than girls and no diet will work that great without exercise. If you do decide to try that diet make sure you stick with it step-by-step.


If not that, I would just do as I said up there, watch what you eat and exercise. Running a mile or so everyday with about 20+ crunches/sit ups will help alot. This also means that you need to cut out sodas, junk foods, sweets, and greasy foods.


Also, once you have lost what you've wanted, you need to keep up with your exercising because if you don't, you will gain the weight back. Good luck.

I'm a junior in highschool. I've taken Biology and Chemistry. I passed Bio with an 89 and I passed Chem with a 96. So next year I have to decide to take physics or bio 2. The physics teacher says there is a lot of math involved. And I'm a strong math student. But I talked to my sister and she said it was really hard(but she's not a strong math student). The physics teacher doesn't have tests in her class and hardly any homework. Then the bio teacher says that her class will better prepare you for college. She says that she helps us with studying and everything. But she said you will have to work your butt off for an A. The bio teacher said that we will have to take bio in college no matter what we want to major in(which I have no clue what I want to do) so I don't know if I should take bio and be more prepared or physics. Any advice?

You will need Bio for college but its Bio 1 that you'll need (the class you already took) not Bio 2. The only people I know that have taken Bio 2 are ones that are interested majoring in it.


Alot of colleges want you to take Physics because of the higher level of science and math involved. At my school, Physics is a required course and you cannot take Bio 2 until you have finished Physics.


If I were you, I'd defiantly take Physics. Since you are good with math, you'll have almost no problem in that class because most of it is formulas and calculations.

How much does it cost to break a two year contract with SUNCOM and switch to Cingular?

It's actually more around $250 per line. We broke a contract a few months ago and had to pay $750 for 3 lines.

Hey!!
I was just wondering, if anyone could tell me the different between regular Acrylic tips & Solar Nails?

Thanks. :)

Acrylic is a liquid and powder mixed. It drys on it's own without any lamps.


Solar is just a name brad type of acrylic nails that looks better and costs a few dollars extra. It's original acrylic and nothing else; it's not like that pre made gel shit some places have.

In order to acquire your driver's permit at the age of 15, you must first take a test at the dmv to determine whether or not you're prepared to drive. Is there anywhere online that I can find the questions that will be on the Texas driver's permit test so that I can properly prepare my daughter and narrow down what we're studying to what is absolutely essential?

Thank you.

Its actually really easy. I got my Texas Drivers Handbook on a Monday and took the test on that Wed. She'll need to know all the road signs. Out of all the ones in the book, there were 20 on the test. I don't remember which ones but alot of them were the common sense ones.



Then there are the questions about rules. From what I remember, she needs to know the right of way rules at and intersection, what an unprotected left turn is, distance you need between the car in front of you, etc. You can have her go to this site and take prep tests after she's looked over the handbook.

can someone please tell me what the difference is between credit and debit? thanks.

With credit, you get billed. With debit, the money automatically comes out of your account.

I'm really flat and it really anyoing I've heard the whole squezzing and putting toothpaste on it idea but I don't like it going to work every well. Any Ideas of what works, If it has would for you or something? Please write I'll rate.

The only thing you're going to accomplish with putting toothpaste on your boobs is making a huge mess that will be a pain in the ass to clean up. That has to be the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard and why people actually believe that is beyond me.


Anyway, no, you can't make them bigger. You sound like you're pretty young--give them time.


You can try all the boob pills, toothpaste, whatever you want, and you probably won't get anywhere. Some pills make them firmer but nothing dramatic with size. Look at all the women in your family and compare your size to theirs. If they're smaller, you probably will be too. Same if they're on the larger side.

how would you define cheating??

kissing, sex, multiple relationships, etc etc??

i was juss curious.

thanks!!

Doing anything sexual (that includes kissing) with someone else while you are in an exclusive relationship. If both of you understand that you are not exclusive, it's not really "cheating" to be dating someone else. People don't think that's right sometimes--dating more than one person, I don't either, but if you aren't exclusive then that's not cheating. That's what I think anyways.

Ok, today I got my ears pierced and the woman the did it apparently wasn't trained well. She told me that I need to take them out every night and clean them. So I took them out and she hadn't evened the hole where you put the earring in. So I can't get either of my earrings in and my mom is now mad at me. I have worked with it for about 20 minutes and still can't get it in. Any Ideas?

Yeah, that lady had no idea what she was talking about, at all. You're not supposed to take new piercing out for a whole 6 weeks. Clean them while they are in your ears.


Tell your mom that that's what the woman told you to do and it isn't your fault.


If I were you I'd ask your mom to take you back to where you got them done and demand your money back because that was a waste. Did they give you a packet that told you how to take care of them? If they did you should have read that, it would have told you how to do it right.


Let your ears close up (don't try to put the earrings back in) and you can get them re pierced later--somewhere else. Or, you can get them done in the same place if you want. But I wouldn't.

EXCHANGING BOXers would be gross wouldnt it?

Back to the store if you already wore them then yes lol.

[view]

ok, so yesterady, I got some boxers from Hollister, & they're a little to big (in the waist, & then length) & so, I was wondering how I could wash them & they would shrink some?

thanks

Hollister boxers don't really shrink. Hollister clothes don't even shrink that much really. But you could try if you wanted too--hot water and dry them on high.


Why don't you just exchange them though?

okay ive died my hair like 4 times in the last 3 months and my hair is kinnda unhealthy like i put stuff in it about once every 2 weeks and i do straighten it. what can i do to make it more soft and healthy?(dont say dont straighten it because i have to)

You really can't reverse that kind of damage. Different products say that they can but they don't help. All they do is make your hair less dry and some keep split ends down. That's all they do. Nothing can reverse damage.


All you can REALLY do is get frequent hair cuts and wait till it grows back out.


What kind of stuff do you put in your hair? Things that will help (moisturize and keep frizzies/split ends down) are hot oil treatments, frizz serums, and moisturizer shampoo (like Dove).


Good luck with that and don't dye your hair too much anymore.
