Q: Ok so I knoow about cinco de mayo and stuff but what the hell is 4 20???????? I am so confused.. I know it's the 20th of april but is there some reason it's celebrated or something...and what exactly is it?

Q: ok so.. theres this school dance tm which i kinda told my friend "Lucy" that i would go to. but i don't want to go anymoree. it's going to be so lame, no one's going and she'll just be w/ this other girl the whole time anyway. the reason she wanted to go was bc of this guy, and now he's prob not even giong. the same night is this dance at an all boys school that would be SO much more fun to go to (if you have tickets) or i would just rather hang outt. the dance is going to suck though i think - what should i say to lucy? should i just suck it up and go (would it be to mean for me not to)? or should i tell her ... ? thanks ill rate 5s.

Q: i got this pink green and white tote bag at aeropastale, and i was just wondering if it would look retarted if i used it with clothes that didnt match it. does it matter ? i mean, its just a bag, right?
thanks xo*
I have that same bag! Haha, no it's fine one time I wore it witha blue shirt, and people kept on complementing me on it! They usually will just look at the bag.. so don't worry, it's fine!

Q: What's the best way to keep your period from leaking through you pants? I wear 2 underwear and a pad and it still leaks through.
Here are some few tips:

1) Wear a tampon AND a pad.
2) Change your pad/tampon more often. Liek if you change it every two hours change it every hour.
3) Use a more absobant pad/ tampon. If it's just a panty liner, it won't work... try going up a size in the absorbancy ( i think that's how its said)
4) Or you could go to a doctor and get medication.

I hope that helped!

Q: on myspace to get the page to be private do you have to set your age to 14 or younger or is there another way to get it completely private?
The only way for it to be private if you put that you are 14 or younger... I know it sucks, but hey, we don't need to be stalked down and rapped now, do we?

Q: so;;i feel dumb asking but you did well last time.
can you tell me how to make out.
like tips and what to do
Hey. It's no problem. Don't feel stupid.. I'm here to help!

Ok so about your question. When you make out, you need to be relaxed and be having fun. Don't think too much about it. Here are some steps that I find helpful:

1) Tilt your head to the right and lean into the guy. Close your eyes just when your lips are about to touch. *DON'T CLOSE THEM TO SOON OR ELSE YOU MAY MISS HIS LIPS!
2) Start off just kissing. Then, you will know if he wants to go furthur if he starts to open his mouth or trys to poke his tongue through your mouth.
3) If he does, let his tongue enter. This is the fun part. You can actually play "games" in his mouth. Like push your tongue into him mouth then let him oush his tongue into your mouth and go back and fourth.
4) Explore his mouth. Run your tongue over teeth, gums, lips, the sides of his mouth, and even his tongue!
5) Then maybe let him take the lead for a little.

Well I hope that helped enough! Just remember to HAVE FUN and RELAX!

*Oh yes, and make sure that you don't have on a ton of jewerly and make sure that your breath doesn't taste bad!!! (and smell bad too)


Q: kay i cant figure it out! i even googled it
but it goes like this

im rosemarys grandaughter. The spitting image of my father and by the end of the day my momma still my biggest fan??
"Who I am" by Jessica Andrews. ---> great song!!!

Q: well;;i am 13.
and have yet to start my period.

i have had discharge for 3 1/2 years now. and have hair down there. i dont no really when i will start. when will i start? please dont tell me your lucky or everyone starts at different times.:] also, how should i tell my mom i started my period. i dont want her to be all weird about it. thannks!
Well I can't tell you an exact date when you will start but I would say definitly before July.. maybe even June. You may even have it before. Just make sure you have a pad or something at school just in case you start then.

When telling your mom, just say, "Mom, today when I went to the bathroom I found this brown stuff (brown is usually the color when you first get your period) in my panties." She will probably know then that you started. She may even expect you to get it because about 80% of the time you get your period around the time your mom does.

Well, I hope that helped. And if you have any more questions, drop one in my inbox or IM me at: xomtin33.

Q: Where can I learn the Electric Slide, Cotton Eye Joe dance or the Robot? Or can anyone give me instructions on any of them?
I know how to dance to all of them... here are some websites:

Electric Slide:
*** http://wiki.ehow.com/Do-the-Electric-Slide

Cotton Eye Joe
*** http://www.arjjazedance.free-online.co.uk/cotton.htm

As for the Robot, you just need to be stiff when you do it. It's hard to explain. You can IM me at xomtin33 if you need more help on it. I can probably explain it better that way. Or you can drop one in my inbox! Hope I helped! :]

Q: im scared about starting my period because i dont know when it will happen. i need to know the syptoms and what it feels like - not trying to be nasty, im really scared.- k thanks in advance.
It is differnt for everyone.
Here are some symptoms:
-bloating
-bad moods
-cramps (it may feel like you have to go to the bathroom)
-tiredness
-food cravings
-acne, pimples, zits, etc.
***not everygirl gets these symptoms though
When you get it, it's very light, you may not even know you have it till you go to the bathroom. The first time you start your cycle, it feels like you have discharge and when you wipe yourself, there is blood. You will of course get blood on your panties.

Here are some good websites:

and

and

So, I hope that helped. And belive me, be sooo happy that you don't have your period... I would do anything not to have it! :]

Q: when or after you start your period do you have to wear a pad, or tampon all the time after you start it like everyday do you have to wear one. sorry. i dont know. i haven't started mine and im scared. lol.
thanks in advance
=D
When I first got my period, I only got it one day and then it didn't come back for like 1 and a half months. It's really light at first and it's not like you can have an "accident" Some girls get their period for the first time and it last more then one day. You may want to wear a pad the first day and so on. I don't think a tampon is really necassary, because it's not even going to be really heavy. However, if you are active and play sports or swim, you may want to because tampons are more comfortable for sports! ;) I hope I helped!!!

Q: does discharge mean your going to start your period soon?? ive been having it for a while now. but i dont know excatly how long. thanks
Not really. I got discharge for like 2-3 years before I got my period. If one time your discharge is like really heavy and there is a lot of it, then you may get it soon. Be happy that you have discharge and not your period... cause it's a pain!!!

Q: Hey! Well, my birthday is on May 3 and I'm thinking of going to see the play "Shear Madness" at the Kennedy Center in D.C. (I'm from and live in Maryland by the way)on May 6. I was wondering if the play is any good. Thanks a bunch!

P.S.-I'm turning 14 by the way.
OMG! That show is ah-mazing! I saw it with two of my freinds and we just talk about it all the time! It is sooo good! I think you will def. like it! I want to see it again actually! You will love it!

Q: is it wrong to want to have sex at the age of 13?
Well it depends. When you have sex, it's usually your choice. However, it is illegal. You need to be I think 18 for it to be legal to have sex. If you have sex with someone that is 18 and you are only 13, your partner could get in major troble. Just make sure you know the risks of having sex. If you are safe then you should be fine. In my opinion, I think it's young.. don't risk your life at such a young age.

Q: Hi! I just recently bought a knit top and mini skirt from Forever21, and now that I have tried it on at home, I don't really like it. Is there any way that I can get a refund and get my money back? Also, I don't know if it's possible, but can I get a refund or exchange a pair of earrings from Forever 21?
You can't get your money back. They give you this thing like if you spent $30 there and you return what you bought for $30 you get liek a giftcard there for $30. Like you can exchange the shirt and top and get the store credit and then buy the earrings. Basically you get store credit.
