Don't be too worried about it! I think that, if anything, your injury will set you away from the crowd. The first day of high school is a day of first impressions, and with your immobolizer, it will probably draw attention to you. Sure, it might not look too attractive, but it might encourage people to talk to you. People could ask you what happened or offer to help. I doubt people will think you're weird just because you had an injury.

A few months ago, I dislocated my knee and had to go to school with a giant cast and crutches. No one made fun of me or thought I was weird. Most of the people seemed genuinely interested in helping me.

Don't let your injury ruin your first day of high school. I suggest that you just be yourself and show everyone that you're not the kind of person who lets something bring them down. I'm sure you'll do fine.

Good luck! =]

So I'm trying out for my school soccer team in a couple of weeks. The problem is my endurance is awful. I can only run for a couple of minutes without being completely wiped out. Are they any exercises or special workouts that I can do besides just straight running that will help build up my endurance? all help appreciated! (link)
Endurance is an important part of soccer. To improve your endurance, you should try going for a run every day, or every other day, or whatever works for you. The first day, only run a short distance. Each day, add a little bit to that distance and run a little bit farther. The only way to improve is to practice, so the best way for you to build up a strong endurance is to run!

Good luck trying out for your school soccer team!!


I have been looking for a job all summer but all i get is im not old enough. Im not sure what places hire at 15 and a half and i also wanted to know how old you have to be for Jcpenny, Kohls, and taco bell.

If you have other ideas for jobs please let me know.


thank you very much (link)
I wouldn't apply for a job at any chain or franchise places (like taco bell, McDonalds, Jcpenny, etc.)because, like the person below me said, child labor laws make it so that they can only hire 16 year olds. I think you should try for small, individually run, local businesses. Maybe a coffee shop (not Starbucks or Dunkin Donuts, though) or a little deli. It depends on what businesses are in your town, really.

Good luck job hunting!!


The iPod Touch has been out for a year almost. I'm wondering if it's worth its $300.00 right now or should I wait until it's cheaper and has better things on it? I'm not sure when it will get better but I think in another year. Do you think it would ever be cheaper?
P.S. I'm paitent. I was wanting it last year but I decided to wait. (link)
I've also been interested in buying an ipod touch. I was ready to go out and buy one recently, but then I decided to wait. There will probably be a new model coming out very soon with more features and at a lower price. The new iPhone 3G is only $199, and since the ipod touch is basically the iphone without the phone, apple has been losing ipod touch purchases to the iphone. Plus, I read online that it's likely that there will be a new ipod touch out by September.

I would wait for a new model to get one. It will have more features and might even cost less. =]


my bf and I are going to vegas in august. he has been there I never have. any ideas of what we could do in vegas he wants to know what i want to do when we go. and i dont know what their is to do there and plus we are underage so no gambling! (link)
Vegas is an amazing city. There's so much to do there. At night, all the hotels are lit-up and it is beautiful to just walk around and sight-see. Plus, there are several plays and shows. I would suggest going to see a show, then just walk around the city and see all the sights. =]


what is the best cream eyeliner?


1. Stila Smudge Pot
2. MAC Fluidline
3. L'oreal HIP High intensity
4. Jane Be Pure mineral


im not sure if number 4 is still existing but i heard they discontinued it.

SO WHICH ONE WOULD YOU RECOMMEND THE BEEST?? (link)
My favorite out of those is MAC fluidline. I also like L'oreal HIP High intensity. They are easy to apply and last a very long time. =]


What should i do i am getting braces and what should i use to make the pain go away after please let me know. and what pattern on my rubberbands should i get???? (link)
While the orthodontist is putting the braces on, it doesn't hurt. It's more like a tightening sensation. It feels like your teeth are being pulled closer together.
They will probably start to hurt a few hours later, when your teeth start moving. To relieve the pain, just take a few painkillers (such as Advil, Motrin,etc.)
It also helps to eat soft foots or cut your food into tiny pieces so you don't have to chew. It might also hurt to brush your teeth for a few days, but just brush lightly.
Don't worry, the pain only lasts for a few days.
Good luck with your braces!


I bought my boyfriend and myself tickets to a amusement park with water sides and the other rides. I dont live with him but I want to make him go crazy looking for the tickets. I want it only focused in his room and car and bathroom. I need clues/ hints all that good stuff.

Maninly I just need a plan planned out for me word to word haha so please help me out!

I want him to wake up and I can text him saying get up and look "fill in" and make him think there is a surprise there and then another clue leading him to another place and so on but in the end he finds the tickets!

Sorry if I confused anyone! (link)
You should make the clues short, catchy. (That's what I do when I make scavenger hunts!) When you send him the text message, say something like: Get your butt out of bed! There's a surprise for you under where you rest your head. The clue would be under his pillow. Next, lead him to the car tire by saying Your next clue is where your car treads the ground.Then lead him to the sink in the bathroom and say: After using the loo, wash your hands here. The soap will be pretty close to you. Just use catchy phrases like that.
