about

My name is Brittany, i'm fifteen years old and i live in New York, it's pretty lame here if i do say so myself, but the people are pretty rad; For the most part. I love to hang out with my friends and just be a teenager [pretty cliche] but oh well. I love music, but i guess every teenager does. My favorite band of all time has to be Circa Survive. I know basically anything and everything about them. I have five sibblings; three sisters and two brothers, all in which druve me crazy. But i deal with it. I have an amazing boyfriend, his name is Derek and we've been together since Christmas. He's the most amazing thing i could ever ask for. I love helping people, all of my friends say i'm pretty easy to talk to so thats why i decided to make this advice collumn, to help people. I also love meeting people and making new friends =]

advice

Okay, I got most of my fathers genes in me. I have extremely hairy arms, I do shave them though. As a girl, it embarrasses me very badly. I've been to doctors and they've given me pills to see less hair growth, but the hair that was already there will just keep growing. (Which is a lot) I'm in my first year of highschool, and I'm VERY self conscious about my arms. I wear long sleeves/jackets until I can't take it anymore. (And I live in Texas, so it is already sooo hot right now) What do you suggest I do? Keep shaving them? It's time consuming, every other day I have to do it cause my hair grows back so fast, and it's just now fair other girls have basically no hair on their arms & they do nothing to them. Ahh, what to do, I have to start wearing short sleeves, the heats too much.

i agree with the person below me.


there are many options for hair removal,

1) dying it blonde
2) nair it off
3) waxing
4) shaving
5) hormone pills

the list goes on and on,

goodluck=]

I get jealous SO easily. I get jealous over just about anything. How do I fix this?

i am the SAME way, no worries.
jealousy is a sign of low self esteem.
everyone gets jealous at some point, but
for some it can seem out of control.
your best bet would to just think to yourself
it's not a big deal, try to keep your mind off
of the subject, or even tell yourself 'im better than he is, im smarter, im prettier' inside your head, just dont act out on it, but it may help you become more confident.

goodluck!

Are there any ways to pierce your own bellybutton without it getting infected?

there is always the risk of an invection, even when done by a professional. The key is keeping it clean at all times until the initial puncture is healed up. Using dial soap with a q-tip can help keep it clean and it's mild enough for use on piercings. if you are looking to do it yourself, make sure the needle is brand new, dont just pick one out of your mothers sewing kit, it can have bacteria on it, which will increase the chance of infection. goood luck!
