so im 13/f and basically i loved rap, and now im more of a rock pop kinda person. is this normal? is my personality changing? is it because im getting older? i just wondered how many others have had the same thing. thankss! all questions are rated. =)

The reason you feel that way is becuase rap and hip/hop really dont have much to offer anymore. Your not the only one that feels this way. Hip hop isn't what it used to be. I found it really boring... and i used to listen to it 24/7 when i was in middle school. Now i rarely listen to it.

I really don't know how to match up clothes. I want to look cute.

Any ideas?

Like... [color] shirt, [color] jeans or skirt, flats/boots/vans ? accessories?

I just look at my clothes and I have no idea how to put it together.

Any pictures would be nice so I can try to copy the look.

NOTHING from Hollister, etc. (I'm not made of money)

I feel the same way... it helps me when i go to the websites of the stores i shop from. Like Forever21, wetseal, old navy, bebe etc.

There's this guy in a couple of my classes, we talk and stuff. He's one of the "popular" kids, but everyone makes fun of him for being ugly. He is kinda..... But, I don't really care. I don't like him like that I don't think but I still want to flirt with him and stuff. I don't know why, I just have an urge to even though he's not attractive. Any advice?

You dont have to find a person attractive in looks to be physically attracted to him. It's weird. The same thing about his personality probably attracts you to him as well as everyone else since you said he was popular, and in my opinion being popular is more about the way you carry yourself rather than what you look like. There were a LOTTA ugly poplular people in my highschool... lol. Yeah but i think you should go for it with him. It might turn it to be something really nice.

Why are so many teenagers these days (particularly girls) obsessed with losing weight while they are like 100 lb?? Seriously, a girl who is like 12, 5 feet and 2 inches, and then complains she is overweight is actually underweight!

I don't get why girls want to get to be like 75 lb. Does anybody agree with me here?

The media is protraying that image... which is absolutely ridiculous... but yeah looking like you cant afford food isn't attractive in my opinion. A girl should have some meat on her. Guys seem to like that better too.

Tonight, I'm going to the movies with my boyfriend but my parents are driving us. When we drop him off, do I walk him to the door? Or do I just stay in the car? I wasn't sure if the girl walks him up there too .. ?

Thanks!!

Walk him to the door...

whats the best way to make money when youre 13? i need to make money for a camera.

babysitting, washing cars, mowing lawns, shoveling snow in the winter. What you can do is get a part time job with you parent guardian's approval and i think you might also need a note from your counselor. You can get a job at a small store in the mall.

Okay, so I downloaded Internet Explorer 7 and it always freezes and randomly closes on me and I was wondering if I went to Add or Remove programs and Removed Internet Explorer 7 from my computer if it would remove Internet Explorer completly from my computer. So I don't know what to do.

If that is the only version you have than yes. If you have another version than no.

i get dandruff bad but i use head and shoulders
should i see one of those doctors?
and what is a good shampoo & conditioner i can use? please help.. i rate thanks :)

I've gotten dandruff very few times in my life, and it went away as soon as i used head and shoulders, if you continue to have it than you probably need to see a doctor.

guys i dont know what to do, ive screwed up my life these past couple of weeks, im failing everything, my mom cries all the time and thinks im a disapointment, i've lost all of my friends, and i miss my old ones..

does anyone know what im talking about? anyone who can tell me how it worked out for you? how you got over that whole bad period in your life and moved on, started over again?

i know life is up & down, but it feels like lately it's been DOWN DOWN DOWN DOWN, VERY VERY DOWN. NOTHING BUT DOWN.

you know? and it feels like there's no way out, im failing everything, i cant make it right, its too late, ill end up not going to a university and end up on the street...family hating me, no friends.. it just feels so hopeless.

please.. if you know what im talking about, help me through it.


thannkks people. i pray for everyone of you, even though you're strangers :)

First off im sorry to say but there's no such thing as a friend. I lost all of my friends about 3 years ago... and they never came back, nor did i make any new ones. Trust me life does go on. Try to enjoy life with the few good things you have. Everything will be ok eventually.

Ok put it this way.
I eat way to much, im not even kidding.
I dont eat anything bad though , i eat all healthy foods but i just eat to much of it!
Like for example fruit.
I could sit there and eat it for like 30 minutes without stopping.
Or like cereal, i dont just eat one bowl. I eat like 3
I exercise all the time, but maybe im just bored?
i dont know! i need help!

You need a hobby, one that keeps your hands busy. Such as playing video games, an instrument, or maybe even sports.

I have a problem of constant worrying about getting things done. I feel as if there aren't enough hours in the day to finish all the homework teachers give us, I don't understand the lessons, then I fail the test, then it all starts over again.

I'm about to break down and cry. I get sick from worrying so much! The stress from school is killing me and my demanding parents aren't helping. What should I do?

Talk to a counselor, I never cared in HS, i graduated with average grades. Just try you best, and tell your parents that they are stressing you out.

Hi,

I need to lose just 5 pounds, but I do not know what to do, any advice?

If your only trying to lose 5 you probably dont need to lose any weight. To answer your question, drink lots of water, limit the amount of junk food, and carbs that you eat. Substitue wheat for white bread.

I'm with Cingular, but I really want a T-Mobile Sidekick. I was wondering if there was any way I could get a sidekick, but still use my Cingular account(like maybe use my Cingular SIM card on the Sidekick?).

The only way you can do that is buy purchasing an unlocked sidekick or getting one unlocked after buying it, but im not sure if that is possible with sidekicks. Go to a cingular store and ask them if they can unlock one for you. Or look for an unlocked one online.

15/M Do girls like guys that wear cologne? Would they like a 15 year old with cologne? I've heard that girls don't like it because cologne reminds them of their dad or grandpa. I was just wondering.

To me cologne is a HUGE turn on. And it always has been.

how often should you get your eyebrows waxed every 3 weeks??

i go about once every 3-4 weeks. I get mine threaded tho, which works sooo much better. You should be good with once every 3 weeks, and just pluck the strays that grow out in between.

i've been getting acne lately ( the little red bump kind) and its sooo annyoing!! what are some really good medications- and i'd like to know....does proactiv really work ? is it worth buying? i have oily skin and this just started happening. thanks in advance!

using toner (NOT ASTRINGENT) after washing your face. Im not sure how proactive works. The best thing to do is go to a dermatologist and get prescription acne medication.

I have a huge crush and he doesnt feel the same but I really want to be closer friends anyway. He doesnt like going places where he's the only guy so it has to be a group thing. What do you think we should do? I always thought of me having a holiday party and having a sevcret santa and "secretly" giving him me.He also loves the jets so I thought a couple of friends and I could go to the game. I really want something fun that can show him that i'm a fun, cute, sweet girl. Any suggestions?

Sorry i replied so late. There are plenty of things you can do. Go to the movies, go out to eat, bowling, invite every1 over to your house, and you can definitely go to the jets game with him.
