Q: Today I was shopping with my mom, and i was picking out some clothes, i went over to show her what I found. & the first thing she says is "no black" and she walks away. So I like black clothes, so what?

And maybe I'm not the preppiest girl ever, and maybe I don't have the style that she wants me to have. But I should be allowed to wear what I want. I don't know what her problem is, at least I'm not walking around with bondage pants with 65486465 chains; (if thats what she is worried about)

So the thing is, I want to be able to wear the style of clothes I want. And how am I supposed to express myself if she won't let me buy the things I want? How do I explain to her?

tell her exactly what you just told us.

Q: ok so this boy right? we like each other but nothin has happend. we're cool and all. i never really told him how i REALLY felt like why i like him and stuff like that. after this school year he might move and i don't want him to forget me. soo.. should i tell him how i feel before the summer? my fear is that i dunno if he feels the same way. advice please lubb youzz!!

seriously. tell him. every day you'll wonder if he thinks about you, you'll think about him even more, and you'll never come to terms that he's not coming back. i was in the same exact situation. he moved away over the summer to california; it's like, we were never together, but we knew that we had something really cool. it's every day i think about it. i miss him, and i wish i had the courage to say something ... anything. tell him how you think you feel, and if he likes you, like you say, he'll say something just like you said. if he cares, he'll do something about it.

Q: how do u get rid of underarm odor with using the deodorant?

you could bathe.

Q: Hey, How do you make icons for Iconator.com.

I rate 5's

paint shop doesnt make icons, like the people below me said. you need to buy jasc animation shop three, or a program like ignite. im not sure where to get ignite, but animation shop (AS3) you have to buy, no free download. its almost forty dollars. if you still want to use it you can go to jasc.com and get it.

Q: Ok I'll list a few songs that I like, so you get a kind of sense of my taste:

Almost Honest - Josh Kelley
We Belong Together - Gavin Degraw
Hopeless Love - Daphne Loves Derby
Good Love Is On The Way - Jason Mayer Trio
Connected - Sarah Paxton
Such Great Heights - The Postal Service
Young Love - Chris Brown
One Original Thing - Cheyenne Kimball

If you have like all these songs, and like these types of songs, can you please give me some more along the lines of all these. Pah-lease.
I'll rate.

to the person below me ... it's 'daniel', not david ... but onto bands & songs. i really like most of those songs, so i figure i'd reccomend some of my favorite bands.

the rocket summer. - skies so blue, saturday, brat pack, this is me, tv family.
jack's mannequin. - bruised, MFEO, im ready, dark blue.
plain white t's. take me away, hey there delilah.

all of it's really good. take a look. < 3

Q: a guy, a girl
ment to be
together forever
nothing more to see

been through so much
they could outlast it all
they were destined to be
as every one could see..

so much love between the two..
as if everyone knew..
that they would last forever..

everyone was wrong..
the love is now gone
the girl is gone

they were ment to be..
forever and beyond..
and thats how it will be..
while shes dying in his arms..

do you like the poem??
what can i do to make it better?
was it good??

ill rate high for anything..
x3

i think it's too cliche. like, 'they were meant to be' is seen everywhere -- in everything. every rhyme just seems to be predictable. sometimes you have to undo the rhymes and just make things meet, make them make sense. try using more complex words, all your rhymes aren't that. gona & wrong, forever & knew, see & be. it's like, i could see those rhymes anywhere. you have a really good base, you just have to work on it a little.

Q: http://www.abercrombiekids.com/kids/onlinestore/html/zoom2.html?alphaList=1:2:3:5:&attrTemplate=h&prnbr=12257&colors=4&zoom=1&colorName=Green:Grey:White:Dark%20Brown:¤t=5

I'm getting that Abercrombie Kids sweatshirt for my 12 year old, female, 100 pound cousin. And I think I should get her a size Small. Would she fit into that and would it be really tight? Small is the only size left so if she can't fit in it, any other cute sweatshirts like that? Websites please, it doesn't matter what store.

its gonna' be too small. im 12, weighing 90 pounds, and i need a large at abercrombie kids. if there ius no large option you really shouldnt get it. or consider shopping around regular abercrombie for xs's.

Q: 13/f

ok i havent gotten my first period yet, and lately, like the past 2 days, my underwear have been really brown, like around the part my vagina touches. Its almost looks like, i pooped in my underwear, like that color(sorry lol), but I know thats not it becuase I clean "over there" very thoroughly. Is it discharge? Will i be getting my period soon? Should I start wearing pads? (and how do you properly put on pads becuase i tried and it didnt work) THanks so much. ♥

you got your period if its brown, or red. at first you shouldnt need actual pads, more like light panty liners. the first few months you get your period tend to be light. & putting it on the right way is really simple. You peel off the sticky on the back, and just place it in your underwear, press down, and -- voila.

Q: how to do and talk with agirl i like????

"hello."
might do the trick.

quit being nervous. its a girl. say hello, talk, if you cant talk for more than two seconds -- you shouldnt like her.

Q: would you consider "to hell with it" to be vulgar? as in cursing?

no way.

Q: I am a really big flirt. Most people would say I have a pretty good personality (not trying to sound stuck up) So normally if I want a guy I can get him to like me. The thing is once he likes me, I want to move on. Its so wierd because it comes natural. So I want to know how can I stop??? Because for my prom date I'm going with one of the hottest guys in the school. But now that I'm going with him I want to move on. And this could be a big problem because I want us to have fun on our prom night.

sounds like you want what you can't have. or, something else. that's exactly how i am and the way i feel. i prefer that whole ... watching from a far thing. & after the boy likes me, everything is ruined. Just give it a little while with this 'hot guy' and if you don't like him, you can break up with him. & i hate to sound like a cheesy love story -- but. once you find a good guy who you really really like, you won't feel that way.

Q: http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y14/candyshopchick/stephyanddanny020.jpg

Q: where in hell do i find a dress in pittsburgh??? what stores can i go to? i need a dress for the semi formal and i cant find n e where where they sell GOOD dresses pretty cheap help!!!!

thanks

ask your mom you idiot.

Q: I don't have an iPod, but somehow I have iTunes on my computer, I just have to set it up. I actually have an mp3 player, so will it work for that or is it strictly iPods? Also, if I've downloaded songs from limewire, can I import them into iTunes? Just for the sake or organization purposes? I'm just wondering...

yes you can import them to itunes .. the first time i used limewire it autimatically conectted to my itunes. & yes, you would get itunes with an mp3; im not exactly sure if it will work when you connect it since i dont have an mp3, but you can still listen to the songs.

Q: This may sound a little dumb, but what exactly is iTunes? And how does it work?

itunes comes accompanied when you buy any type of ipod. hense the 'i' part. itunes features a music store, where you can purchase some of your favorite song for 99 cents, and an episode of your favorite tv show for $1.99. its quite cool actually, you can listen to all your favorite songs, create playlists, imixes, and its all about music. videos, songs. and new features.s tv shows. mini cartoons. etc. so im pretty sure you need an ipod to get a hold of it .. unless you borrow a cd from someone. (you get it onto your comp by downloading off a cd). :) please rate.

Q: hey guys well im one of the most paranoid people you would ever meet. well last night my boyfriend was over and we were just kind of "fooling around" you know nothing too bad.. well we both had our clothes off and i was laying on top of him and we were kissing. i didnt want things to end up going too far so i stopped.. well the thing is i know that before this he did cum but it was like 20-30 minutes before that.. but is there any chance that i could have gotten some of the sperm inside of me.. i heard that once the sperm hits the air it dies but is this true? please dont give me any rude answers
thanks!

sperm doesn't die directly once it hits the air. and nothing could be inside you unless he went in you.

Q: so yea, on AIM every1 has a cute profile w/ cute quotes and designs and i wanted to know if anybody knew any websites i can go to to gte cute stuff like that. some cute away messages too. i rate 5's for links =]

What do to make my sim pregnate.Please help me i'm desperate.

well, the try fr baby option is really only available for PC's aka computers. i the only other thing i remember when i used it on ps2 was to have them make out for a bunch of times. and a thing would pop up asking if you wanted them to have a baby. other than that, id try enable mojo, and then see what happens? and keep trying.

Q: Hey Mom, i'll try to make this sweet and simple.
I kinda want my underwear back.
I'm not exactly sure why you took them, but i have an idea. Maybe you thought i was trying to 'impress' somebody? Maybe for punishment? Maybe you thought i was growing up too fast?
i'm not exactly sure but i think its one of those.
I just wannna let you know i'm not trying to impress anybody.
Its kind of a personal preference, its more comfortable & stuff.
i don't like, show people or anything, like some people i know.(aka sluts!)
I don't know, do you want me to earn them back?
well write back.
mmkay
bye

is it good? i don't want to sound like a smart aleck though. and i don't wnt to beg her either.
is this good? any revisions i should make?

id cut out the mmkay. it seems, eh, just cut it out, especially since it's to your mom. and take out the exclamation point after 'sluts' it gives it a whole new tone.
