Any help would be appriciated.
Thanks :]

I would see a doctor about that. Visine might just make the infection worse. Don't do anything to it until you make an appointment. Your doctor should prescribe you something for that.

I don't know why and it's kinda gross but lately like everyone in my class started wearing thongs instead of underwears and even the teacher! I don't get what's so good about having a peice of string hanging up your ass. Is it like because when you're wearing something that's not jeans that the lines on your thongs wont show up as much as an underwear would? Or is it cheaper or something? (link)
| |
People mostly wear thongs so people won't see panty lines, and not for sexiness (although there are probably people out there who are turned on by them...not gonna get into that).

ok well my friends and i have like a lot of impromptu parties just like 6-10 people at different people's houses if we're bored one day.
well theres always one dry spot where we just dont know what to do.
we've gotten tired of seven minutes in heaven, spin the bottle, and truth or dare
what are some other good party games (kissing and also non-kissing ones)?
any and all help appreciated. thanks! (link)

The first one I'd recommend is a game called "Never Have I Ever", and here are the rules:
The players sit in a circle, and the youngest person starts first. They say "Never Have I Ever..." and then something they've never done (like "Never Have I Ever fallen off a horse"). The other players have 10 fingers held up, and if you have done something that the speaker hasn't done, you put one finger down.
You can play until someone has no fingers left, or you can do what we do and keep putting our fingers back up, and keep track of how many rounds you're on.
You can also play this game as a drinking game, where, instead of using fingers, every time you've done something, you take a shot (Don't play with real alcohol if you're under the legal drinking age!)
Hope this helps! ^_^

okay i have two guys who are in love with me which its my boyfriend Justin and my best friend Sean, well like I've been going out with Justin for almost 10 months and I've known Sean for about 4 or 5 years. Well i know that Sean and Justin doesn't like each other because Sean doesn't like the way that Justin treats me and like Justin treats me fine, he doesn't do anything bad, but people are scared that iam going to get hurt or anything and i talked to Justin about that he said that he ever would hurt me in any way and like i don't know like my mom think that Sean is the one for me , but Justin is really i don't want to go out with my but friend you know that would be awkward you know, i don't know iam just lost, i' have two guys who are in love with me and i don't want to make a bad chocie of picking who you know because my mom doesn't like the way Justin treats me either, and i don't understand why they don't. He told me he would do anything bad to harm me... i just don't know i need your help.
thanks lauren (link)

Ooh my... >.<
I would suggest talking to your mother about this. Ask her why she's concerned about you going out with Justin, and tell her that you love him and trust that he won't hurt you.
As for Sean, don't string him along (not that you would do this, I'm just letting you know) because it's cruel. Tell him that you like him as a friend, and you don't want to ruin your friendship with him by dating him.
The important thing is to be honest, both with Sean and your mom.
Oh, and if Justin starts abusing you or treating you like you are less than a human being, get out of that relationship immediately! If your mom is concerned about you, she may be right about Justin. He sounds nice, but be wary of his behavior.
Hope this helps! ^_^

this did not happen to me but im just curious. if someone like fingers you or something against your will [say if youre drunk or even if youre not] is it still considered rape? (link)
| |
If someone touches you inappropriately and it is non-consensual, that's at least sexual harrassment, maybe even attempted rape.

I just got a video ipod. I have almost 1500 songs on it already (I already had itunes) but I want to put videos on it. I know you cant just do it, but what program do I need? I downloaded one off of morpheus and it didn't work. What program do I need, can I download it, and is there any way else to do it? thanks =) (link)
| |
I use iTunes to put all my videos on, but they need to be saved as a QuickTime file. I believe the file extension is ".mpeg" so just save it as that, drag it into your iTunes, and you should be able to play it and put it on your iPod.

What are some things that make your zits go away quicker? Besides going & buying abuncha stuff from the store, I dont really have anyy. But, i'm gonna hang out with some boys next weeks & i'm hoping i can get them to shrink/go away by then. What are home rememdies? I have oily skin.. if that matterS? (link)
|
Yes! What type of skin you have most definitely matters!
hehe, anyhoo...
You want a cleanser that will dry out your face, because oily skin tends to break out more often (just in case you didn't know, not trying to make you feel stupid). I use one that works really well, called Clean and Clear Morning Burst Facial Cleanser. It does take some time for results to show, though.

im 14/f
my face is REALLY pale.
and im going to las vegas in may.
so im thinking about going tanning a couple times before going to las vegas so that my face will become a natural color, and so that i wont burn really badly in las vegas.
is this a bad idea?
im not really for the tanning bed, i know that they can cause skin cancer, but so can the sun. and im not going to get TAN.
and about how many time would i need to go just to get my fae a natural color? (link)
|
If you're not really for tanning beds, you should ask yourself why you are considering this option. Artificial tans don't really protect you from the sun. What I would recommend is bring strong sunscreen (at least 30 SPF). You could try a sunless tanner (there are good ones out there that don't give you an orange Malibu Barbie look)
Btw, I have seen pale people that come from Las Vegas, so you're not alone! My only other bit of advice is to accept your pale face.
Have fun on your trip, and I hope this helps! ^_^

So, there's a song I totally fell in love with. The song is "Love Me Dead" by the band Ludo. I've looked on iTunes and Purevolume, but I can't find a downloadable copy anywhere. The band used to have it on their myspace and it's on their purevolume page, but it's not loadable.
Is there anyway to access this song and download it? I know it's pirating, but you don't understand- I'm in LOVE with this song.
Someone help! (link)
| |
Altavista.com has proven a very valuable resource for songs for me. What you do is click "mp3/audio", and deselect all the options but "mp3", then search "Love Me Dead+Ludo".

What exactly is trans fat? I've heard that it's a kind of fat that just sticks to you and is impossible to lose. How badly does it affect weight and health? Should I amke sure everything I eat has trans fat? I'm worried that it'll build up and I'll get fat, and I won't be able to lose the weight.
Thanks (link)
|
Trans fat (partially hydrogenated oil) isn't just bad for your figure. It's been linked to serious heart disease, good and bad cholesterol levels, and diabetes
My advice is to eat foods that contain trans fats (like processed snack foods and fast and fast-casual food such as McDonald's or Lee Ann Chin's) in severe moderation.
If you're concerned about it, I recommend a diet with lots of fruits and vegetables, lean meats like poultry and pork (and not too much red meat), fish like salmon and tuna, at least 3 glasses of milk or servings of cheese per day, and whole grains. Sweets are alright in small amounts, and try to get 120 minutes of vigorous exercize a week. No crazy grapefruit starvation diet needed!
I hope this helps you out!

I'm thinking of getting my belly button pierced and my ear pierced in the middle like in this pic:
http://www.thepiercingshop.co.uk/images/ear.jpg
So i'm just wondering how painful will it be? (link)
| |
I wouldn't recommend it, because piercing areas other than the earlobes is linked to a lot of serious health problems. But if you do decide to pierce them anyway, be really really careful, and keep it clean.

Well im trying out for the play brigadoon and there was a tryout today and i had nothing to sing so i sang mary had a little lamb, well i thought i needed somthing better after today so theres one more auditon tomarrow and if anyone could please recommend songs that'd be great. (link)
| |
Go with something you can sing well, rather than something popular. It's good if you sing something that's written for your vocal range.
|
okay well i think my house is very boring i mean its big an stuff an everyone says its awesome but there is nothing to do
any advice on that?
and at nigh ttime im tired of doing nothing but get on lap top and watch tv what else could i do?
i mean like real fun stuff nothing like just dancing an listening to music i mean i can do that on computer
so yeah please help becaus eim tired of always being bored (link)
|
I've fallen into this trap too. I sometimes feel like the only thing I'm doing is either on the computer, or using the TV.
I would suggest taking up some kind of non-screen-related hobby. Start by assessing what you're interested in, like art history, or graphic design.
If you have community ed programs in your area, use them to your advantage! You can take a lot of fun classes that cover things from gaming and different kinds of arts, to sports and physical activities!
Also, check out the after-school classes offered by your school, and you might be less bored at night, or too tired to be so! hehe... ^^;;;
Hope that helps! ^_^

I was wondering if anyone could lead me towards some good psychedelic reads.Sort of in the vein of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland.Just something that's generally nonsensical and trippy.Nothing futuristic though. (link)
|
There's a graphic novel called "Lost Girls" written by Alan Moore, and illustrated by Melinda Gebbie, which is about the sexual adventures of Dorthy Gale (Wizard of Oz), Alice (Alice in Wonderland), and Wendy Darling (Peter Pan). From what I've read about it, it seems like a very trippy book. However, there's sexual content in it, and as I'm not sure how old you are, this may not be what you're looking for.
If you hadn't said "No futuristic", I would recommend the Logan trilogy, written by William F. Nolan, which is really good dystopic sci-fi. But since it's set in the 23rd century, that kinda counts as futuristic... ^^;;;
Oh, one other book is "Through the Looking-Glass", which is a continuation of Alice's adventures, this time in a "Looking-glass world". If you haven't read that one, it's well worth your time.

does anyone know of any catalogs that i can order though the mail that have stuff that remind you of a fairy,fairy tale a little gothic victorian or belly dancer gypsy but still sexy and sophisticated and feminin all in one not baggy and bulgy.i like clothes that fit close to my body. not gypsy rose,romans,body central,or urban out fitters.
(link)
|
I can't recommend a catalog, but there's a Japanese company called Moi-même-Moitié that sells a style of clothing called EGL (Elegant Gothic Lolita, refers to looking doll-like) and EGA (Elegant Gothic Aristocrat), and this may be what you're looking for.
http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/jpop/essentials/mmm/
Be warned, their stuff is VERY expensive! A dress will set you back about $500 US, so this may not be what you're looking for.
Also, if you search on the internet, you may be able to find some seamstresses offering commission services for dresses and clothing like this, which can be considerably cheaper. Be careful though, and do research to make sure they're legit.
Hope this helps you! ^_^

Hey,
OK. I'll cut straight to the chase. I used to have a MySpace about 2 years ago. My parents were totally fine with it, until there were a bunch of rapings in our state. At first, they only made me delete the pictures off there so that nobody knew what I looked like. Then, they made me get off the site all together. (My friends deleted theirs as well.) However, my brother (2 years older than me) has been allowed to stay on the site.
After two years, I've visited the site through my friend's account and have noticed that many of my friends have made new ones. This has left me to the decision on whether or not I should make one.
Keep in mind that my parents haven't really talked about it, and my brother still has one (no pictures of him). Since I'm in High School now, don't you think I should be allowed on this site?
I've asked my mom during the summer and she said "definitely not."
What would you do? What are your thoughts on this?
(link)
|
First off, I would not suggest making a MySpace page behind their back. If/when they find it, this will signal to them that you don't respect their judgement.
Since you said they haven't really talked about it, start a conversation about it! Ask them why they are concerned, and tell them how you feel about not being allowed to have a page. Brainstorm ways to be safe on the site (such as not giving out your personal information). But the most important thing is to discuss this with them, instead of going behind their back, as tempting as it seems.
Hope this helps! ^_^
