about

I'm a photography major at a community college. I love music, fashion, art, my friends, books, films, theatre...and vampires. Ask me anything. I especially like questions about my opinions on something and questions that aren't even asking for advice.

advice

what exactly does sketchy mean?

Conspicuous or suspicious.

I want to know if my waist/hip size is right for my age but I don't know how! My bf's waist is 32 inches! sounds a little too skinney for me

I have a skinny boyfriend too and it makes me feel bad about my body in comparison, really. Anyway, I'm 15, I weigh 110 lbs. and I'm 5'4". My waist is like 26 inches and my hips are 34 inches. You can find out if it's normal or not by going to the doctor and asking.

Okay well tom. i am going to a interview for 2 agentcies and they want me to bring a portfolio of pictures. Well i don't take pictures like with my camera the only thing i have recently took a picture of is on the webcam i mean i could print it out on paper or evn on a picture paper but the thing is it's probably going to be small and if i do zoom in it would look weird what do i do? Will webcam pics do?

Thanks

I take it you're a model? You might want to be more specific next time. Anyway, if this is for a modeling agency, they're asking for professionally taken photographs. You'll need to ask or hire some photographers or photography students in your area to do a few photoshoots with you, and it might cost you money. Good luck, dear.

Okay, well I am looking for a certain picture.

its of a guy and a girl in a room full of people but all the people are kinda blurred out so its just them.. and its like basically sumboling that when they are around a whole bunch of people its like its just them in the room. its really cute and i hope someone could find it for me

Sounds like a Lara Jade to me.

Can you put any type of lotion/body lotion, on your face? or is it just for the body? My face is really dry from using acne medicine a lot so I want to mosturize it but I get oily skin a lot and right after I wash my face too so I don't want it to get more oily

Aveeno or Clean and Clear has come out with a great oil-free moisturizer.

I have blue eyes and in every picture I've seen with me in it my eyes turn red. Every single time. If I were to wear brown eyeshadow, would that reduce the redness and make my eyes show up their natural color? Also, are there any other eye makeup tips that would be a solution. I know photos could be fixed by computer, but I don't want a reason for fixing..

I always shoot on manual or without flash. So yeah, no more flash unless it's absolutely necessary, in which case you'll just have to fix the red eye problem on the computer later.

What is Seasonal Affective Disorder? How do you get it, and how do you get rid of it?

SAD is basically when your mood and emotional state of being change with the weather. For instance, you get a bit depressed in the winter. It's completely normal and pretty much everyone can suffer from it. Since the transition from lovely Fall to crappy/freezing winter kind of sucks, the remedy for me is to stay active and try to spend more time around people.

I really want to get my stomach flatter. Is there a good diet for this? I am also going to start doing my zone pilates everyday. Also, i was thinking of taking some sort of weight loss pill, i know they are dangerous, but i am not looking for an extreme one. I am not overweight, i just have some fat, i need to get toned (i am like 110 and i am 5'4). The problem is that i am 16, so i wouldnt be able to order them because my parents CANT know...i need something from like a CVS.

Thanks so much!

I'm also 110 and 5'4". Your height and weight are normal, maybe even a tiny bit underweight for your age. If you excercise more and do more crunches, your stomach should look flatter relatively quickly.

i'm about to tell someone something i'm sortof nervous. how can i relax while staying in this room?

Take deep breaths :]

Is Santa Clause real? I just want to know once and for all.

Thanks so much.

NO.

I hope I haven't caused your mid-life crisis.

hI,I have a question. The thing is I really want to become a Goth. Only I have failed all my GCSEs in school. i only got a few G grades (apart from getting a C in English)
The thing I need to ask is: don't you have to be quite clever to be a Goth. They write poetry and draw/paint but I don't have a clue about any of these things so couldn't do them. Can I still become a Goth? If so how would I go about it?Or do you DEFINATELY have to write poetry/paint to be a Goth? Am i too thick? Will my lack of eduaction pose problems if I'm going to become a Goth?
Also I AM PANICKING SEVERELY OVER MY FUTURE/OPTIONS/EDUCATION but for a time I was thinking about working with horses. ONLY THINKING!!! i wanted to explore all my options.

was thinking of going to college to do Equine(horse) studies so that I could eventually get a Job with horses. Could I still be a Goth if I did this? If so then how? I haven't seen many Goths around stable yards.should I just be a Goth In my spare time?
Also I might not work with horses I might choose to do something else. What types of Jobs do/can Goths get? And would employers be put off employing them because they're Goths?
Can you provide me with any answers. PLEASE HELP!!!! I'm sorry if this is a really strange question by the way!!!!
I live in England by the way.

"Goth" is a label. A label for people that are so pseudo-intellectually depressed about their sad little upper-middle class lives that they dress ridiculously to get attention. Don't get me wrong, everyone should dress however they feel like. But they claim to be free and non-conforming unique spirits when, in reality, they're just conforming to their own standards. With their fashion, personalities, likes and dislikes. Just be yourself. Labels are for soup cans.

hi, well im not a politics type of guy, so i dont know why george bush and tony blair are hated so much. what have they done thats so bad?

I don't know...but I do know that if you google the word "failure" the first link that it gives you might make you understand.

thanks xo

Definitely adorable. You could even wear black leggings. And maybe a white headband to tie it all together.

my right foot is ugly, like its always dry and scaley and stuff and i put lotion on it and stuff, then my left foot is like perfect, is there anyone else who has this problem? what can i do? i call them my women and men feet. haha

My right foot is ugly too!!!! High-five for ugly-right-footed-ness!!! Seriously. You and me, we're amazing. Anyway, my mom told me that it's normal for your feet to look different, slighty or a lot. One could even be a little bigger than the other. So don't worry about it.

I wasn't sure what catagory to put this under. My 8 year old daughter has gotten bubble gum stuck in her beautiful long hair. What can we do to get it out without having to cut any of her pretty locks? Thanks!

Peanut Butter!!!

I know this question might come up a lot but I can't find answers that can help me out so I'm sorry.

Anyways, this Saturday I'm having a surpise party for my friend John. I'm having about 20 people over and I have no idea what to do!? We're in highschool so we porobablly wouldn't want to play board games and such. I don't have a pool or trampoline.

Any ideas.. fun things. My friends can get bored easily and it's only going to be for at least 3 hours.

Thank you so much for any help.

Go on a scavenger hunt or something random like that.

How can I give myself a bruise? This is a VERY important question. I hope it doesn't get deleted by the moderators. Don't ask why, but I REALLY need to know how to give myself a bruise.

I'm guessing you're asking this because you want to pin it on someone else that they are abusing you. Don't be an asshole. Seriously. It's a crime to file a report against someone for physically abusing you when they didn't

Hey :) i am 14 years old and i collect stickers........ i was just wondering, am i too old to be collecting stickers??? i love it..... am i too old? or is it all in my head??

thx

Nope, not at all. Lots of people your age and older collect stuff like stickers. I'm 15 and I collect sharpies of different colors. You're never too old to do something like that if it's fun.

is it normal for a gf to not want her bf to look at other girls?

Yeah.

Today I recieved a copy of Cosmo Girl instead of Elle Girl. Instead was a letter stating why. Apparently Elle Girl is no longer in publication and I will be issued Cosmo Girl magazines in place of Elle Girl until my Elle Girl subscription runs out. Why is Elle Girl not in existence anymore? I am confused!

The same thing happened with YM. I'm guessing they lost their company due to lack of subscribers or something like that.
