*facepalm*
Sweetie. If you have sex, there is always a chance you will get pregnant. Yes, there's a chance. Is it likely? No, probably not. It's still a good idea to always use protection, even in nonvaginal sex, because there is always a chance of pregnancy and STDs. I'm not going to be your mom, and tell you to wear a condom every time, but be prepared for all possible consequences if you don't.

Ughhh... It works differently on different people. I have a friend who has tried EVERYTHING for his acne, including Accutane, which can kill you, and it's still bad. Then again, I had a friend who uses plain Noxema and it clears up her pimples. Everyone's skin is different.
Personally, I've found it's really harsh on my skin, and makes me break out MORE, but I've heard tons of glowing remarks from friends. I think the only way to tell is to try it. *shrugs* Sorry!

I like to use a crayon(it's softer than kohl, and it's easier to use than liquid).
Covergirl makes them, they have a plastic shell, a cap on top like a pen, and a triangularish round thing on the bottom, this is the sponge.
If you want a full lower lashline, apply slightly thicker, but either way, begin at the outer corner of your eye, and put about 1 cm(a little less than half an inch) of perfect black line across your lashline. Then, use the white spongelike tip to lightly smear it across as far as you want the line to go. Do this carefully. By using a little bit across the WHOLE eye, it stays better.
IF YOU WANT TO USE KOHL- I know people say that all brands are alike- this isn't so. The cheaper you buy, the less quality pencil you get. Covergirl makes the best ones that are fairly cheap... otherwise you get into very expensive liners. Avon also makes nice ones.
DO NOT TRY TO SMEAR KOHL. IT WILL GIVE YOU BLACK EYES. PUT IT ON AND LEAVE IT.
You can try to use a makeup sealer, but do this in moderation, and VERY carefully.
LIQUID- I just want to say that you should NEVER EVER EVER use a liquid liner on your bottom lashline. It results in black tears unless you have a very steady hand, and it looks messy.

Well. You've spelled it phonetically(by sound), but it's really spelled "Mazel Tov".
Mazel Tov is a Hebrew phrase meaning "Good Luck!"
It's been incorporated into the English language, and is most often used to mean "Congratulations".
It was origionally associated with weddings or birthdays, but has been expanded to fit a host of different occasions.
It's sometimes used sarcastically as well, meaning that someone is exagerating the situation-
Ex:
Jenny: I just finished my six hour AP Chemistry final! I think I got a 100% on the test!!
Josh(annoyed that this is brought up yet again): Mazel Tov, to you Jenny!

Not exactly. They reduce the arch in your feet if you wear them for extended periods of time exclusively. If you only wear one type of shoe, the others will begin to feel unusual and uncomfortable.
If you want to make sure you still have a good arch in your foot, purchase insoles with arch support in them, or just make sure to pick already arched shoes. If you plan on wearing flats a lot, but want to still be able to wear heels, try to wear the heels a few hours a week(even just around the house) so that your feet won't totally reject them.
I have the opposite problem- I've exclusively worn heels for so long that flats hurt my feet and give me backaches!!

You probably have water trapped in your ear giving you an infection. I have had this problem countless times.
The clogged feeling will be there until you get the water out, and the way to do that is to drain it out of your ears with ear wax removal drops.

YES! I love this book.
It's called "Once Upon a Marigold".
The Princess' name is Marigold, and she was going to be killed by her mother. :D

There are lots... I work/live at a summer camp.
-Centapede: Get a sheet, and put all the girls under it but one. The one is the ringleader.(this can also be you) Introduce them as your pet Centa. Have Centa do different tricks. Finally, call an important person(the camp director maybe?) and have them lay down. Centa begins to walk over . As the last member of Centa walks over him/her, he/she dumps a bottle of water on his/her shirt. You go "Oops. Centa peed."
-St. John is at the gate to heaven. You have each camper come up, listing maladies that they had at camp. Each one, St. John turns away, because "You haven't suffered quite enough yet." Last, a camper comes up to John, and when he asks how he has suffered, the camper says "I was in ___counselor's name___'s cabin." And John lets him in.
-JC Penney- Someone is standing around. One by one, campers pass by, and the person comments on their clothing. When he/she asks where it was purchased, she/he says "JC Penney's". The last person comes out in a towel. The asker says "What happened to you?!" He/she replies, "I'm JC Penney!"
If none of these work, say so in your feedback.

There isn't a way to cut your wrists without blood??
But even if there was no blood, it still is slitting your wrists.

Tank top: like a T-shirt with sleeves cut off. Not spaghetti straps, but thicker straps.
Wife Beater: ribbed undershirt-style top, medium sized straps.
Camisole: Thicker fabric, smooth, spaghetti straps, sometimes have built-in shelf bras, occasionally have cups built in.

No, its not just you, people mix them up a lot.
And if you want to know specifically, you can look on wikipedia. Simply type in the thing you're looking for, be it camisole, corset or cinch-waisted tops, and it'll give you a full article. :)

Baking soda does. Use a tiny bit of water with it to make a paste, and scrub hard. It works wonders!

Absolutely not. It may dry your hair out, but that can be fixed by using a bit extra conditioner.
:)

Okay... the number is your band size. If you're saying that a 36 doesn't fit around, then go to the women's bra section(not the girl's) and try a 38 band size. I doubt you'd be a 40 and only a A cup, but you can try it if a 38's too small.
Ask one of the ladies there for help if you can't find one that fits.

I actually wouldn't bite at all. Try this:
Lay your mouth(open) on the other person's skin.
Use your mouth like a vaccuum. Lay your teeth against the skin, and suck the skin up against your teeth. Just keep sucking really hard. The idea isn't to bite the person, just to pull the blood up, so the harder you suck, the faster and more permanent.

Taylor is a very nerdy type of girl. In the movie, she is portrayed as kind of chic- blazers with flower pins on the lapel, pencil skirts, chunky headbands, flats.
You could also take it the other direction and wear sweaters, Mary Janes, and pencil skirts.
I really loved the movie Taylor's look, but it really depends on how you plan on portraying the character.
Playing the Nerd Tips:
-If you're doing your own makeup, use "smart dots"(small white dots on the inside corners of your eyes) to look smarter offstage. I've really no idea why this works.
-Glasses automatically make you look nerdier. If you don't wear any, simply purchase sunglasses(small one, probably wire frames) and pop the glass part out. If you're not strong enough, ask a techie for help. They are the most awesome people ever.

:)

**EDIT**
A jean skirt sounds perfect, as long as it isn't a mini... that would be pushing things.
For the decathalon, try to find a lab coat. Try asking a chemistry teacher at your school, or looking at a costume shop(ours is called Actor's Attic.)

I don't know about downloadable, but I use THIS:
http://www.biblegateway.com/versions/?action=getVersionInfo&vid=31
for all my bible needs. It has all the translations, and its very easy to navigate. If you really WANTED to download the entire thing, it would be as simple as highlight-copy-pasting it into a word document.

Oh dear... this is a toughie.
Your angel is telling the truth- don't be a man-stealer. It will pretty much kill you socially, and he won't STAY with you if you do.
Vibes are good, but they can't always be trusted. It could mean he likes you as a friend, it could mean he thinks your hot, but those things aren't QUITE the same.
If he looks at you in a "sad" way again, take him aside(don't do it in front of his buds), and ask him what's wrong. Don't be seductive, just as a friend. Use that as a door to becoming the "girl bestie". It will help later on.
You should definately ask for a number. Thats not exactly flirting, but try to say it in a non-flirtatious way just in case. Be very careful.
Now... once you're his confidante, if he comes to you with serious need of relationship advice, play it like this "I don't want to tell you anything against her, because you guys are so happy together, but... (make him press you for info) well... she really shouldn't do ________. But I'm probably just reading the situation wrong. Its probably all cool. Cuz. You're happy right?"
That will plant the seed of him breaking up with her, and it could cause him to do it of his own volition, without you "stealing" him.
IF THEY BREAK UP:
1. Wait a tactful amount of time. AT LEAST a week and a half. It would be better if it was three weeks. I've been the wronged party before, and its really easy to talk about the "slut who stole my boyfriend" even if she's YOUR best friend.
2. Wait for him to ask you out, not vice-versa. That would kill the whole "not stealing" vibe.

GOOD LUCK!

The only way I know to completely give up a person you adore is this:
"Immature love is wanting the other person to be happy only with you. Mature love is wanting the other person to be happy."
"If you love someone, set them free."
MY STORY:
S. was the first person I think I've ever loved. It lasted about six months, then our parents effectively kept us apart. I could have kept in contact, but because I knew it would make things harder for S., I stayed away- not due to lack of love, but out of respect.
If you care, really care about this person, enough that you want them to stick around, back off a little. Go do something else for awhile. Slowly wean yourself off. Cut out an hour a day of him, until you only have about an hour of "you" time with him left. If that's still too much, alternate days. Then maybe twice a week.
In the time you spent with him, do something productive, such as studying.

**IN RESPONSE TO YOUR FEEDBACK**- if you'd like to vent, I'm black_lipstick_kisses@hotmail.com
email me there. :)

That makes sense. A lot of guys are "goof off"s in school, because they're scared they won't be liked as the "nice guy". My little brother is the same way. If you like the guy(which, by this, it sounds like you do) then it really shouldn't matter what other people will think.
Now, If you're worried about him being "mean" at school, I wouldn't worry. If you guys were going out, he couldn't be mean at school. He might not be the "nice version" he is when you're alone, but his personalities SHOULD come to a common person. Maybe someone nice who likes to crack a million jokes?
GO FOR IT!!!! Rose.

I don't know about getting rid of them, but if you use Visene on them it takes away redness...
These are some sites, but I haven't TRIED these... so take caution.

Hey Peoples...
I'm a Pennsylvania girl plopped right down in the middle of the nowhere, and hating it.
I sing, act, write, read way too much, and I love my girls.
Currently SiNgLe, but I want someone.
I give okay advice, but I won't bullshit to you. If I don't know, I'll tell you straight up. I'm NOT going to sugarcoat answers, and if you rate me down, whatevs. WHO CARES. I'm not here to be the most popular collumnist. I'm here to give advice.
On that note,
Lots of Love
Rose
