Okay,
I am hard of hearing, and whenever I get an ear infection my biggest fear is it's going to be that ear infection that might damange my hearing even more. Is that even possible? I mean can it damange my hearing more? Seriously the though freaks me out. I've had a double ear infection for almost a week and my ears still haven't popped :( (link)

Yes, I'm sorry to say that ear infections can scar the tympanic membrane which is what allows the bones in your inner ear to ear sound. However I personally have had more than 50 ear infections and have scarring on my tympanic membrane with no significant loss of hearing. Further the solution my doctor gave me and has worked very well, no infections in 7 years is this. Lie on your side and pour 3% hydrogen peroxide into your ear canal. You should hear fuzzing and crackling and possibly slight itching. flush the ear over and over with the peroxide until the fizzing doesn't happen anymore and then repeat on the other side. Good Luck

my whole life, i have NEVER ever been happy with how I look. Ive always been a bit over weight, not extremely, but a little. I'm like 5'5 and probably like 170lbs...i would really like to look alot better. I got distracted during the summer and screwed my diet. But everytime I start a diet and keep with it, it always dies, and I always get depressed about it, because I was doing great, but i just didnt want to keep up with it because i was too lazy, or distracted, or busy. And I'm really jealous, I can't really get guys, I talk way too much, but like every guy is only into "skinny" girls. I would really like to like my body and for who i am. And i used to do swim team, because its good for my health, but to be honest, ive been doing it for over 6 years in the summer and winter, and quite frankly, im getting tired of it. So I need exercises that I can do everynight that will help me lose weight effectively =] i'm trying to lose my belly more than anything though, and my waist, and my thighs lol. I'm busy with other activities during the week too, so I dont want a HUGE workout everynight, I'm willing to workout an hour a night..is tht good enough? And of course im gonna diet with the food and everything...I just dont want to let myself again, for the gizillianth time...15/f/usa (link)

in 2 weeks ill be 18 and i am gonna try to get a credit card .
which credit card companies are the easiest to get it from if your only 18 ?
and can you take cash off of the card , or can you just use it to buy things ?
how long does it normally take to get them in the mail ? i need to use mine for something important right after my birthday but i dont know if they give you a number to type in to use until you get ther eal card in the mail or if i just have to wait ? (link)

PAY VERY CLOSE ATTENTION,
Don't worry about getting a credit card, you will get offers in the mail after you turn 18, or you can call Capital One VISA etc. and apply they will all offer to extend you credit
THIS IS THE IMPORTANT PART
by accepting credit, you will get a credit score a score of less than 700 is bad and this will cause you to have high interest payments and be denied a loan if you want one, like when you want to borrow money for college, to buy a car etc. if you take credit make sure you can pay at least the minimums and make sure your payments are NEVER late, a your credit record will be with you from your first card until you die so make sure you take care of it. Employers and others will often check credit reports to see if an applicant is responsible, so make sure you make at least the minimum payments on time every time, being late even once a year will penalize you on your credit report.
