about

yo. i'm jade and i'm a sophomore in high school and i'm 15. i can really relate to alot of people and i absolutely love to go advice! i'm a very easy going person so don't be afraid to talk to me =]..but i'm not a doormat, i will tell you when something is bothering me. i am a very understand person and will always give people chances. so don't be afraid to just drop by and say hi or ask a question cause i will try my best to help! =]]]

advice

I was wondering if anyone had any tips on getting a thinner face, so that your cheekbones can really be seen. I'm about average weight but on my cheeks and face I have a little fat, maybe baby fat, that I would really like to get rid of. Any suggestions would be very appreciated =]

The amount of sodium that you intake also has to do with this. Try eating foods that are low in sodium. It really helps to thin out your cheeks..it helped me alot!
Hope I helped! =]]]

This is embarasing but I have pretty hairy arms. All my friends shave theirs and stuff but I heard that makes it grow back darker and stuff. I obviously don't want to get the lazer treatment done or anything crazy like that. Does anyone know any ideas of how to solve my problem?

You could wax your arms. When you wax any hair, it comes back thinner rather than when you shave it. This is hard to do by yourself, especially on your arms, so getting it proffesionally done might be best. This shouldn't be too expensive.

Hope I helped! =]]]

ok.
15/f.

My question is.. does age really matter? like i like this guy.. we'll call him... M. well M is a bit younger then me.. like 6 months or something.. we're in the same grade and everything.. if we were to go out would that be wrong because of the age?

Like i'm gonna be 16 in February but he'll still be 15.. i guess all i'm trying to say is that.. since we're in the same grade.. would age matter?

thank you. any help is appreciated:]

Nope I don't think it matters at all! It doesn't sound weird to me! I'm 15/f also and almost every day that I've dated have been younger than me haha. So go for it!
Hope I helped =]]]

well, i don't know about where you live, but i've noticed lately all these girls have been wearing these tan ( i assume suede, i'm not sure though ) boots. they're not like snow boots or anything, just nice little boots ( but now uggs ). and i see they all have them in tan, and i want a pair in black and i know black pairs exist cause i've seen other girls wear them too.

i just have no idea where these girls are getting them. so my question is; does anybody know any stores that sell boots like that or any sites or anything?


black suede boots that are flat ( no heels or anything ).

if anybody can help, i'd really appreciate it.

i've been able to find a bunch on ebay so far, but that's it.

Here are some Ugg boots that come in black:

So I saw this magazine and it said
Mary Kate .. anorexic. 80 pounds.

So.. does that make me anorexic too or what?

Is 80 pounds anorexic?

I thought 70 pounds was anorexic.

I eat a lot. I weight around 80 pounds and I'm 5 feet tall. But if 80 pounds is an anorexic number or whatever, would I get the automatic label of anorexic from doctors?

Nope you wouldn't get labeled anorexic by the doctors. When you are anorexic, you don't eat. Alot of people just have high metabolisms, which make them skinny. I'm 5'5 and I wear 90 pounds. And I eat alot alot alot haha. So don't even worry about it! =]]]

i'm 13. i love shopping and i'm not just saying that. i use my dads credit card when he takes me shopping but sometimes they say "can i see your lisence" and my dad shows them his. but i was wondering am i old enough to have a credit card? if not, when am i old enough?

I'm 15 and I have a credit card. My parents got it for me and it has my name on it..but basically it's their money. I also went to the DMV and got an ID so when the store asks to see my ID I show them that. A school ID also works too.
hope i helped! =]]]

I became a Christian two years ago, but I was baptized Catholic as an infant. I really get into the Christian faith more than the Catholic faith.

However I also heard that Catholic is very similar to Christian, except that Christian is more of a general faith than Catholic? I really don't know.. I mean I would hate to leave the Catholic faith. I am asking what is the difference between being Catholic and Christian? Would it matter if I was baptized Catholic and being more Christian? What am I supposed to do??

Thanks

Hey..this might defer away from your question..but if you want a major insight to the Catholic Faith, check out the book: The Visions of the Children, the Apparations of the Virgin Mary in Medjugorje: by Janice T. Connell. Check it out..it changed my life =]

Hi i am 14 years old, male, and i have like medium long hair, its to my neck but its frizzy all the time and like i use shampo and conditioner, but i dont use the shampo every night i use it like every 2 nights. But it still gets frizzy is there a way to make it stop frizzing. like could i get it thinned and then layared then just use hair stuff for frizzy hair? please answer this i need help

If you want to get your hair less frizzy, then use shampoo, then when you get out of the shower put in a leave-in-conditioner. You can get this at any store, like wallgreens, walmart, target, ect.

I got my hair thinned out 3 days ago and it worked really well. I didn't have any poofiness on top.

hope i helped! =]]]

do girls go for guys with piercings? if they are good looking that is, and do girls get attracted to guys with piercings,like let's say nose rings?and if they do, can you specify which part of the face or body you find most attractive for a piercing on a guy and how much piercings should your ideal guy have?thanks

the only piercing that i find so attractive on a guy is the ear piercing. just one ear though. it's incredibly hott to me. but i don't like piercings anywhere else.

ok you know those sores you get in your mouth? well a lot of people have them, and i guess they're not too unusual ...but i heard if you ever get these sores, you have that virus for ever. and its contagious. so does this mean you cant kiss anyone, without passing on the virus?...

(btw..ive never even kissed a guy before, but im just nervous about this..because i dont want to kiss anyone if im going to pass this on. thanks

my dad has those. you can still kiss and share drinks with friends, but not when you have it or else you can pass it on. but when it isn't there you can do all that stuff. =]]] hope i helped!

I think I may be bi... I never really thought about it before a few days ago, you see my friends and I were playing Truth (it's like truth or dare without dares)and "David" asked what my deepest, darkest secret was. I said that it was that I used to make out and do other things with a girl that used to live by me. Then I realized I do a whole bunch of other things, like look at women's faces and breasts. I never really enjoyed doing things with her, but it felt nice... sorta. I don't really want to be Bi (no offense!!! I'm an activist). Do you think this was just a phase or do I truly have feelings for women? I haven't had any feelings since and I don't intend on doing anything with girls again.

Thanks...

P.S. I have a boyfriend.

It sounds like you were just experimenting. Everybody does it..or atleasts questions their orientation. Since you didn't really have feelings for her (you were just messing aorund), you haven't had any feeling since, and that you don't intend on doing anything like that again, and that you have a boyfriend, it doesn't seem like you are. =]

I have a phobia of food poisoning and throwing up. I've already decided that the next time I throw up or ever get food poisoning, I will kill myself, and if that doesn't work out, I'll be anorexic to prevent food poisoning.

I already have a therapist, but she doesn't help with my phobia's. I've asked my mom to get me one that specializes in phobia's, but she chose this one to helpme with my depression (which I am over) and she won't get me a new one.

It's either give me a way to never throw up or get food poisoning, or I'll end up in a bad situation.

This might be hard to believe, but go to a hypnotist. They will erase that fear from your memory. Searh in google more about the subject. It is completely safe if you go to a professional. One of my relatives went to one for her phobia - stage fright and antisocial behavior..she didn't like people. After her visit she didn't have that phobia anymore!

Everytime a guy gives me a sign that he likes me I start watching him more and more. Then I start freaking out and thinking he likes me when normally they don't. This really funny guy, James, is in three of my classes. I'm almost 100% positive he doesn't have a girlfriend. Anyways, it was either monday or yesterday(I can't remember)and I heard his friend, macey, trying to guess who he likes (well that's what it SOUNDED like)and she said something and I wasn't listening but then james said, "shelby?! she's so mean to me." then he said something like "it isn't her." or "I don't like her." a few minutes later macey was talking to someone and james whispered, "allison" to her. Or it was something that sounds incredibly alike to that. Well, yesterday after class was over and everyone except james, caleb, and me were out of the room already, james walked past me to the door and then caleb noticed I was still sitting there and stopped behind my desk and reached in his pocket for something and james freaked out, ran over there, and yelled, "dude, NO. No! No! NO!!!" And then caleb took his hand back out of my pocket and they both walked out of the room. So does it sound like he likes me(If so, how do I find out for sure)? Be completely honest! Oh and don't say for me to get my friends to ask him or for me to. But, some way that I could do something and then see his reaction to it.

It really does sound like he likes you. Here are some choices to find out:
-Wait, give it time. He will think of a way to tell you. He seemed pretty close that day with the note. My guess for the note is that it was a note explaining that he likes youa nd he wanted Caleb to give it to you...but he got scared. If he really does like you he will tell you in time. My guess is soon he will.
-Go up to him and ask him if he likes you. (The very direct way).

I recommend the first choice, wait. I wouldn't try to dig harder into it to find out if he likes you. I've seen this happen to alot of my friends. Then they turn out looking like a complete spaz to the guy who actually did like her. Then he changed his mind.

I think he will tell you that he likes you soon =]]]] hope i helped!

So, my boyfriends b-day is coming up. He'll be turning 19. We've been dating for 3 mo. I'm 16. I have 60 bucks and no idea what to get him. I want to do something special...not just some random gift. My boyfriend loves music & plays guitar. He also used to do martial arts. Advice would be very much appreciated. :]

you could get him a guitar pick that has a little hole at the top so that he can wear it as a necklace. then on the pick you can write: to (your boyfriend ), love (your name).

i'm a junior in high school. i really wanna be fluent in french, so im going to go to france for a year. should i do this right out of high school or should i do it right out of college?

it would look really good on your college application if it says that you are fluent in french. so i would probably do it before college. but if you don't want to take a year off you could always do an exchange program when you attend college. alot of colleges support that. they switch you and another student from france so that you can attend a college in france for a year. =]] hope i helped

ok wow. today i went to this party. all these people were like drinking and smoking. i felt so bad! i almost felt like crying. this was my first *drunk party* or whatever you call them. i didn't get drunk or smoked or anything. but, i feel so bad. all these people doing all these things. the cops came and arrested this kid because he was above the alchohol level or w/e. i just fee so weird and so dissapointed about this. it's not that i'm a nerd. it's just that i see it on tv and stuff, but i didn't expect this from some people. we all go to private schools. i'm not saying that people that don't go to private schools drink and stuff. but, i mean, that we all live pretty sheltered lives, you know? we go out and stuff, but we go to small schools and i just don't see why they would do this. i just want advice from anyone that maybe has gone through this sort of thing and maybe to give say something uplifting relating to this

thank you

i know exactly what you are going through. i go to a private school where it seems that everybody is so sheltered. then as soon as the weekend comes there are all these "drunk parties" that people go to. when i entered high school i expected all of this, but not that my friends were going to do it. im a sophmore now and it is still going on. the only thing i can really tell you is to stay strong and to not give into peer pressure. i've watched how much drinking and smoking pot (and other things) have ruined my friends lives in just one year. i'm glad you didn't do anything bad at that last party. you were very mature =]. if you ever need any advice on anything you can IM me at barsano09. =] hope i helped.

My girlfriend broke up with me a few months ago (reason cited: my arrogance was getting in the way of our relationship). We are involved in a lot of the same clubs (both officers) and so forth at school and so somehow or another, we will need to get along.

Recently I IMed her just to ask how she was doing and what she's been up to. (Have to start somewhere, right?) "I'd rather not talk about it with you," was her reply. Ouch. Cold.

So anyway, ideas? I really don't want to fight her on commitees and such all year. I mean should I just ask her how she's doing until she answers? Should I give her (some more?) space?

I think what she needs is some more space..give her some time to cool off some more. You could always give her the summer to cool off then when school starts gradually start talking to her at the officer meetings. I hope everything works out =].

I am on my school's danceline and we pratice out side all the time, I am african american and liked my skin tone the way it was is there any products out there that could be use to prevent tanning?
thankyou

danceline

if you use bare minerals makeup on your face it really helps. it contains sunscreen but it isn't the kind that will clog your pores. you could wear that on your face then sunscreen on the rest of your body.

Ok so i really wanted to go to this really good, expensive private high school for years now and my friend that just moved away is going there, but my best friend isn't going there. I don't really want to wear a uniform and i kind of want to go to a public school because if i went to a religious school would there be any relationships? I'm so confused!

I go to a private school. I actually like having uniforms because you don't have to pick out what you are wearing every single morning. It is really a relief. My school is very religious..I think all private schools are...but that most definately does not prevent relationships haha. Like everybody is in a relationship at my school lol. It's probably the same as public school. =]]]
