Heyy everyone!

It's Lauren again. I just thought of one thing I want. Books. I love to read. I love books about real life situations. Does anyone know any good books (and authors too!) about teenagers (male or female) dealing with relashionships or teenagers dealing with being raped/sexually harrassed?

Thanks Again!
-Lauren =)

heyy lauren. i read this teenage drama "shattering glass" about teen guys and how they makeover a nerd and well, they end up killing him but its a really good book. theres a lot of relationship stuff in it too. in my opinion its the best book ive ever read and i hate reading!

ok well,im 15, there is this guy that i have a crush on, but he has a girlfriend. Me and my boyfriend just broke up. I know that i didnt like it when other girls liked my bf. So do you think it is wrong that i like someone elses boyfriend? This has been bugging me for a long time.

its not wrong for you to like him... its just wrong for you to make it obvious and try to steal him.

Hello There!

My name is Lauren. My birthday and Christmas are coming up really soon. I'm turning 14 years old. My only problem is, I dont know what I want! Can I have some ideas?!?

I like:
- body sprays and lotions
- jeans
- make up (only mascara, eye liner, and eyeshadow.)
- picture frames

anyone know any good things along those lines? Im looking for specific things. 5's for prices and store. 1's for sarcasm. 3's for trying but basically repeating what everyone else said.

thank you!
-lauren =)

fantasy by briney spears...around $50 at department stores
curious - $20 for the gft set at target
hollister jeans - hollister $40 and up
picture frames...things engraved $30, pier one imports around $10
disney ones are cute too!
i would ask for an mp3 or gift cards to target, kohls, hot topic, hollister...ect.

Hey everyone. Well I have a boyfriend now and considering its winter, lips get chapped easily. I need to buy a lipgloss/lipstick thats not TOO sticky, tastes nice, but wont get all over my bf you know ? Please leave lots & lots of comments lol. xO thanks

lip smackers...they come in every flavor imaginable & are good enough to eat, theyre not sticky and gross and it can protect your lips.

My friend is 14/f and she wants big boobs. She's not going to get plastic surgery(thats for sure) and i keep telling her everyone goes at their own pace. She doesnt even fit into an A cup. DOes anyone know how to make their boobs bigger with out surgery and stuff?I know this may be embarrasing so dont be a smart and tease. I rate 5's for any good answers tho!

padded bra or some kind of push up should do the trick!

Hey guys,
I have black hair and brown eyes, and I have dark hair on my upper lip. It is really ruining my life, because I'll never be able to get a boyfriend with it there. I really need help, but I don't know what to use. I'm not going to shave it off, because then it'll just grow back in thicker and darker. I would get it waxed, but the problem is that I don't constantly go to the hair cutting place for my hair to get cut and my eyebrows waxed, so that would suck to not be able to get there when I need it waxed again. I was going to try bleaching it, but I'm not sure if I'll look stupid or not since I have black hair. What exactly do the bleaching kits do? Does it lighten the hair a lot, to where you wouldn't even be able to tell that I have hair there? Also, how often do you have to bleach it if I choose to do that? Or do I only have to do that once? I really need help. I'm sick of people making fun of me. My life sucks right now, and I was just crying tonight because of this. I really hope someone can help me. I need to do something with this hair on my upper lip or else I'll never get a boyfriend. I'm not comfortable with it there. Would it still matter to guys if I bleached it and just had lighter hair there? I have no idea what to do, and I'm scared to go to the store to buy whatever I need. I will not talk to my parents about this, because they don't wanna hear these types of things, and I wouldn't even feel right talking to my sister about this. Someone please help me. If you've ever shaved, waxed, or bleached your upper lip please let me know. My life is ruined. I would like to know what would be the best thing to do, and I'm not sure because I think bleaching would be the best out of the three. So again, how often would I have to bleach it and will I never be able to get a boyfriend if guys see hair there still? If anyone can, please help me out. Just answer my questions even though there's tons of them on here, and let me know what product would be best. Has anyone ever tried using the Sally Hansen bleaching kit? How would I be able to get my sis to go to the store and get this for me? I'm so sorry this is so long. I really need help, or else I will not be able to live with myself anymore. I feel so ugly, and I hate my life because of it. No stores are open tomorrow are there, since it's Thanksgiving? Would a store like Walgreens thats open 24 hours usually be open tomorrow? I need to buy something as soon as possible. :( Does everyone get this hair on their upper lip usually or am I just weird and ugly? I wanna die. Please help :(

sally hansen works great! it just lightens it to match your skin. get some at walgreens and such. it will work for you. i think it will give you a self esteem boost too.

Everyone tells me that glow in the dark tampons are a bad idea. Am I the only one that thinks I could make millions off of it?

I'm using acne medication that I put on my face at night and wash off in the morning. Well, my acne is getting a little better but my skin is SUPER dry and flaky from it. It's gross!!! Well, if I use moisturizer, my skin just gets acne...so what do I do to keep my skin nice and fresh and soft but acne free?! (while still using the acne medication the dermatologist prescribed!)
i rate highhh!

curel lotion...a little goes a long way and NO IT WILL NOT make you break out.

hey, is there any way of applying eye make-up that make the eyes look:

1.more oval
2.less droopy and more upward slating \ /
3.wider apart
4.longer in length / [] \

also could the way you shape your eyebrows affect this and if so please can i have some tips.
thanks a lot
luv rach xxx

for the wider apart, put eyeliner on the corners... like outline them from half above and half below. thats all i know of.

Dear 3love i have some family problems and every where i go i cant seem to be helped. You see my parents are recently getting a divorce and i am the one having the hardest time in all of this. I have soo much responsibility and i'm only 14. Like i can't go out with my friends unless i make sure my brother and sister have a place to stay first. And even after all of that they still can't seem 2 trust me!! I just have no clue what to do. I live with my mom and all i do is babysitt!! I never have time4 me i feel like the mom and the dad!!
Love i need help!!

awww! i feel really bad for ya! raising yourself is 14 is hard enough and adding siblings on to that is reallllyyyy hard! maybe you can have an agreement to have a relative babysit for you every other weekend you you can do things then. have your friends come over and watch tv or something around the time your sibs go to bed or have them spend the night.

Well Okay... first of all let me say thanks in advance for answering this.. i would really like opinions on this and sorry if this is long.. but i will rate fives for anyone who gives serious advice... (15/f)

Okay.. so first of all theres this kid who im really good friends with.. and ive known him since second grade. He is my best guy friend actually. And i like him too. I see him every day in school like he will come over to me in the morning and talk to me and once i had put my books in his locker. and he brought them to me knowing that i needed them. and he always pokes me and stuff. once he linked arms with me and just stood there for a while. and then he put his arm around my waist once too and just stood there. And well my school sells carnations for thanksgiving.. and well i sent him one.. and he sent me one.. and like im the only person he sent one too. and sometimes when im standing with him in the morning he looks at me when he thinks im not looking and this is not just like once.. so ya.. im wondering if he likes me or just likes me as a friend and what i should do about it if he does.. THANK YOU FOR HELPING ME

its like you guys are "going out" but it was never "official". thats cute but it could be misinterpreted.(recently i had 2 guys do that but nothing came of it) keep this up for a while and then see what happens.. i think you guys will end up being together.

Hi, I have a kind of embarrasing question. Well I just got my period and it's always really heavy the first day I get it. The problem is I have to be at work tomorrow, and my boss told me that we're only allowed to go to the bathroom on our breaks, which is every two hours. Well I'm going to have to be able to change my pad before two hours!! What am I going to do?

try a tampon and a pad in case it leaks. that should keep you goor for a while then change it when you get the chance. if your boss is a woman, she should understand...if its a man, talk to one of your collegues and work out something where they can cover for you every hour or so.

simple question, long story behind it, but i want to know, what do girls want in guys?

well every girl is different but here's my opinion: i want a guy that i feel protected by.. i know that no matter what i say, he'll be there. he shows up to things, he opens doors and really cares about me. its a lot of the same qualities i look for in my guy friends: honesty, trust, some sensativity, support, understanding and a lot of fun to be with. as for looks, someone that looks put together, clean and is himself.

I'm a senior in highschool. I take a lot of courses which require writing. It may not be apparent here butI am unable to write down my thoughts coherently. Writing scares me now. I freak out when there's a writing section on tests, when I have to write in-class essays, and so forth. My marks suffer because of this. It's so frustrating!! Someone suggested that it may a a learning disability...but I'm not sure. This just started this year. What does everyone else think?

i have the same problem and i noticed it more this year too. i think its low confidence in your writting, not so much the inablilty to organize thoughts. what i do that sometimes helps is i put my facts and information i want to use in the paper in bullets or a list then i kinda organize them to make seem like an organised paper. just add some words before the sentences and such. just take your time...some schools offer more time to take tests to those who need it. don't procrastinate and take it step by step...it really helps. just stay posative and keep working at it!

i have those kinds of body spray/perfume from gap and i was wondering what can i do to keep my body spray/perfume last longer throughout the day so i can smell good ?

please dont tell me to put a lot on

i read somewhere i while back that putting it on right after you get out of the shower helps because the heat opens your pores. the place for it to last longer is your hair.

what should you wear under the spandex you wear in volleyball??

please wear SOMETHING. i cant imagine wearing them without something between me and the spandex. a thong is ideal. some girls don't wear them and the pantylines like split their but cheeks in half and make me want to gag. but thats just me.
