First I would like to point out that I'm not as ghostly white as my picture looks. I actually have a really nice tan. :)
Hey, I just read this for the first time in a long time and I realized I sounded like a complete female Rainman. Anyway, I'm pretty much amazing, haha. I love to help people out with minor or major problems, so you ask me anything and I will answer it to the best of my ability! My favorite topics to give advice on are DEBATE, FRIENDS, POLITICS, MUSIC, and SPORTS (a recent thing!). I'm a typical Texas (college) football fan. That's pretty much it, so get to asking questions and stop reading this! :)

For mine and my boyfriend's one year I made him a basket full of memories. I also went online and made a custom romance novel for us, but it's a bit pricey. Then I made him homemade fortune cookies with cute love quotes as the "fortunes" inside the cookie. You could also paint a picture or make a collage of your one year together. Maybe write him a love song? Kind of cheesey, but really cute. Maybe even sing it to him?

i have had the same phone for like 8 years but now i need a new one i can't decide between a razr a samsung sync and pantech dou or a pantech c3b please help me (link)
| |
DON'T get the samsung sync. I went through about 3 of them in less than 6 months. They ALWAYS drop calls. My step-dad had one for business and it dropped 10 calls in 1 day. It's really not a good phone. I heard razrs aren't great either, but my dad's girlfriend has had hers for a couple of years and hasn't had a problem with it.

So the Bibble say not to have tatto's. I think that's because God dosnt want you to hide or ruin (or somthing like that) what he created. So why isnt it the same way with make up? Its still hiding what God created. Does anyone know why wearing make up is diffrent? All answers apreciated. (link)
| |
The Bible says our bodies are temples. They should be treated with care and respect. That's why it damns them. The Bible also damns bunnies, homosexuality, and hamburgers.

OMGGGGG please please please help me!
i had a bad accident today and one of my bottom teeth broke! i went to the dentist and all and he said we have to wait until wednesday for the gums to heal before we replace it!! please help me! i need a way to hide until then my family are being so mean and nonsupporting... i need a way to disguise it until then because i don't my friends to see me like this!
ANYTHING! please anything that i could find at home and use to disguise the missing tooth its on the side near the front two teeth at the bottom! (link)
| |
Honestly, no one will notice. I work with a lady whos bottom front teeth are MISSING. I didn't notice it until about 4 or 5 months after working with her every day for 6 hours straight. You only have to wait until Wednesday. Try not to smile really big or open your mouth wide enough to see your bottom teeth. It's really the only thing you can do.

Lately, I find myself listening to the same bands over and over. I'd really like some suggestions for new bands to listen to.
Anything similar to:
The Rocket Summer, Mayday Parade, The Used, Just Surrender, or This Providence.
I'd prefer bands that are more unknown, too, because I know a lot of better known bands.
Thanks =] (link)
|
I LOVE Mayday Parade.
Other great bands are playradioplay!, houston calls, as cities burn, zebrahead, jack's mannequin, less than jake, brand new, the higher (amazing), the secret handshake, sky eats airplane, wecamewithbrokenteeth,rehab, the unicorn project, and the classic crime. That's all I can think of right now.
EDIT: I saw The Higher and he sounds EXACTLY the same live as he does on their CD. He's amazing. I really want to see Houston Calls, you're so lucky!

Ok im 14/f 134 pounds and 5"3 . Not fat at all , but i would like to have my stomach a little flater . Just last night i started doing 50 situps & im going to do this everynight . About how long will it take to see results . Im very active , i play soccer & we run alot ?
Any more tips to , let me know (link)
| |
Don't do situps or crunches every night. You wont see results as fast as you would doing them every other night. I know it sounds like it should be the other way around, but it's not. The reason for this is when you're doing situps/crunches you get tiny rips in your abs (hence the phrase "getting ripped") and they need time to repair. If you do them every night you'll just keep ripping the same spot and you wont get any results. Give your abs a day to repair and you'll see results a lot faster. You said you're in soccer and run a lot so telling you to do cardio every day would be pointless, haha. Also, healthy eating habits with help a lot with weight loss. Stay away from soda as much as you can. If you do drink a lot of soda STAY AWAY from DIET soda, it's been proven to actually make you GAIN weight. Also, stay away from artificial sweeteners, such as Equal or Splenda, they were also proven to make you gain weight- using regular sugar is the best thing to use. Make sure to eat 6 servings of fruits and veggies a day and drink 8 glasses of water. You wont see instant results, but in a month or so you should see improvment.

most of my friends are girls ima guy. one of my very good friends probly my best and i became friends not to long ago and it went straight up from there. we were both home sick all this week so far. we talked the whole time i was awake. i helpd her plan her birthday and she always texts me the chainmail sayin i love you or stuff like that how much she cares for me. i care for her alot to i just dont picture us dating were the kind of friends that are super close and very flirty but just not relationship kinda people. shes also having a very hard time with this other guy. after hearing all hes done to her i hate him. but i just dont really know what to do. i dont want to hurt her shes been hurt enough in one week than most people are in a life time. him and her fighting then being friends again have been going on for about a year. her bdays on valintines day what should i do or say to her. id die if she would get more hurt after i kill the guy who hurt her. but i just dont love her romantically i say just friends but we care and flirt with eachother way to much. what do i do?

I know a lot of people say "Just tell her how you feel" but I know it's not that easy at all. Try to hint to her that she's only a friend (ex: "I'm so glad I have a friend like you"). If you eventually want her as more than a friend tell her she deserves someone who treats her like a princess then jokingly say "You know, someone like me" and see how she reacts.

Hmm..well...I have a question about the behavior of my English teacher.
He is a very..touchy person...He's quite old..I'd guess between 40 and 50, but really funny and nice, never gets pissed at students, so everyone loves him as an teacher. He's a very English type guy as well.
My question is that do you think it's ok if he goes to check what someone has written, and he sorta leans against them? Or like if someone asks a question, he goes over to them and usually has his hand on their back or shoulder..
and so on, like always quite close with the students.
I find it strange...I know that he's not a pervert or anything, but is it ok?
thanks. (link)
| |
He just wants his students to feel like he's actually listening to their problems. My english teacher does the same thing, it's to show us he's listening. He's also affectionate and concerned with his students.

"clincally proven to stop under-arm sweating" HAHA yeah okay that didn't work. and certain dri didn't work. has anyone had this problem and gotten rid of it? nothing works. -_- please help.

I've had that problem my whole life until just recently. I used to use men's deodorant and it worked fine for a few years! I use Degree Clinical deodorant and it's amazing. It's $7, but it's worth every penny!!
I meant use the MENS. It's stronger.
You could also go get acupuncture done (needles) and it should work.

What are some shampoo and conditioners that leave your hair smelling good, even if you shower at night for the next day, cause my hair always smells good when i shower but once it dries it smells kinda not good. Personal experiance please! Thanks! (link)
| |
Garnier fructise is good. I LOVE LOVE LOVE Victoria's Secret shampoo and conditioner in their garden scents. It's only a seasonal thing though, so it sucks because you either have to stock up and spend a bundle or wait for it.

I am going to have to get all 4 of my wisdom teeth pulled in about a year or two. Nobody else in my family had theirs pulled...So I was wondering...
How much does it hurt on a scale of one to ten?
Where does it hurt the most at (top or bottom)?
I would like at least two people to answer...
Thank youu! I get really nervous about surgeries and things, so I was j/w.. Thankss (link)
|
DON'T DON'T DON'T drink from a straw! You could get something called "dry socket" and it's extremely painful.
Anyway..
It's good that you're getting all 4 of them out at the same time because then you wont have to go through it again. You will most likely sleep for the next two or three days because of your pain medication. When I got all of mine pulled they gave me a sleeping pill then put me on the gas, but it didn't knock me out so they just gave me 12 shots of novicaine and I didn't feel anything except for pressure on my mouth. In my opinion, the bottom hurts more because more things come in contact with it. Don't stress about it, it's really not bad at all. Your cheeks will be swollen, but that's about it. Good luck :) I'm sure you'll be fine.

My sister gave me the idea of being incognito for Halloween, but I didn't have time to ask her what I should wear. I think so far like a tan trench jacket, sunglasses, and.... that's it! I know I need more, but what else? Also, in case I end up not liking the costume idea, what's a costume I can wear that includes a fedora? Thanks in advance. (link)
| |
You could be a mobster :) just wear pinstriped pants and a pinstriped jacket, the hat, and carry around a toy gun.

omg, help me cheerleaders, or tumblers!
ive been working on my roundoff backhandsrping tuck FOREVERR now. i have my roundoff tuck and i just cant land my tuck when its connected to a backhandspring. pleae help me, tryout and in like 5 months and i need to perfect this.
i know how to set and everything, i just dont know what to do!
please!
(link)
| |
Maybe you're not tucking tight enough? I was a cheerleader for 7 years and I was having a bit of trouble with my tumbling, so my coach suggested I practice with ankle weights. They are hard to get used to, but they make everything so much easier once you're comfortable with them (good for getting your jumps higher, too!). If you don't want to use them then try to perfect a roundoff double backhandspring then slowly turn it into a roundoff backhandspring tuck. If nothing works, talk to your coach and see if she/he has any suggestions.

Can someone give me an honest opinion on what they think of my voice?

You sound young. Start taking voice lessons (to improve, not because you're bad) and I'm sure you can sound great! You have A LOT of potential, so keep it up.

what is the dark in tall, dark, and handsome? when talking about guys (link)

I've always thought it meant mysterious. :)

I have a type of OCD called trichotillomania. It is very rare but I am absolutely positive I have it. My parents know that there was something wrong with me but didn't know it was an actual mental illness. It makes me pull out my eyelashes when I get stressed. And I go to a very competitive, highly stressful boarding school, which means I'm stressed ALL the time.
My trichotillomania (TTM) started in middle school and there was a point when I didn't have any eyelashes at all. Then, without any medical help, I trained myself to stop the urges to pull out my eyelashes. And they grew back.
But at the end of last year it came back! I have full eyelashes on my right eye, but half of my left eye has none! I cover it up with eyeliner and not many people notice because I have pretty heavy side bangs, but it still drives me crazy. I would be so much more confident if I was just normal.
The only person I've talked to who has TTM is away at college now and I barely talk to her.
What can I do to stop myself from picking? Its mainly when I'm doing my homework at night.
Any suggestions??? Something to do with my hands? Some way to get me to stop?? I'm desperate. I've tried sooo hard. Its a mental illness so I can't just tell myself to stop. And I can't seek medical help, I go to a boarding school. (link)
| |
Talk to a councelor at your boarding school or a trust adult. Tell them the problem you are having and maybe they can take further action. You really need to get some professional help with this, you wont be able to stop it on your own. Like you said, it's a mental illness and you can't just tell yourself to stop. That means you need to tell someone you trust, and I don't mean one of your friends.

this is gonna sound way conceited, but i promise, im not trying to be. im much prettier then my friend. i mean, shes like fat and everything, so i mean obviously, guys dont like her much. plus she acts really stupid alot. anyways, since im a freshman, ive made alot of new friends. and so when me and her will be wlaking down the hall, just about every person says hi to me, and i stop and talk and make yano small talk. and she gets mad, and walks away. anyways, whenever i talk about like guys or something, she like finds some way to insult them. and its just really annoying. what should i do? (link)
|
Wow.. calling your friend fat AND annoying doesn't make you a very good friend at all. She's obviously a good friend since she's sticking with you even though you do talk behind her back, assuming you don't call her fat to her face.
Try to act mature and talk to her about everything. Maybe she's insecure and needs a FRIEND to help her feel good about herself. Maybe give her compliments every once in a while like "*name* your shirt is really cute! You look so good in it!" Don't ignore her when you're talking with people she doesn't know, introduce her and maybe she wont act like that.
I used to have a friend like that and instead of being a jerk, I talked to her about everything. Try being a friend to her instead of complaining about her faults. A little bit of positive can go a lot further than a lot of negative. You really need to re-evaluate your actions because, being a freshman and all, people are already going to look down on you since you're new to the school and acting like that towards a friend is just goinog to make you look worse. You're going to need your friend one of these days and if you act like that they might not be there for you.
Thank you for the crappy rating, I can really see what kind of person you are. I gave you the advice you asked for, but I also showed you what kind of person you come off as. Good luck freshman year, you're probably going to get stuffed in a locker if you keep acting this way.
OKAY, SINCE NOTHING ELSE I SAID HELPED YOU MAYBE THESE LINKS WILL.

Hint: next time you insult someone, try to think of something more intelligent and mature.

I had no idea what to put this under. I am terribly curious about "Hannah Montana". I had never watched this Disney Channel show, but I have seen the jumping popularity of Hannah Montana on even NBC news. I watched it on ABC Saturday morning cartoons recently, and saw absolutely nothing great about it. I thought that it was actually incredibly horrible acting, and the concept to be terrible. I am disappointed to see that Disney's legacy has disappeared behind this... crap. My younger sister's friend was playing the soundtrack, and I found the singing rather nauseating. Can someone tell me how on Earth this awful, unholy phenomenon has occured? (link)
| |
Honestly, the only reason(s) she's famous is because a. she's on the Disney channel and b. her dad is the one and only Billy Ray Cyrus. She's mainly famous because of her Dad and her show is aimed to little girls, so the acting doesn't have to be amazing. Most little girls believe everything they watch on TV, so there is no need to be a superstar.
