Hi, I'm Anna. I love visual art - acrylic painting, CG, color pencil. I'm also interested in poetry and classics, particularly Latin. I play ice hockey and love to ski (I get lots of chances since I live in Maine). I adore the ocean and my favorite color is blue. Thankyou. *bow*

Does anyone else ever get an itchy spot on their hand that, even when you scratch, doesn't go away?

HOW CAN I MAKE THE ITCHING STOP!?! Its brutal. (link)
You're quite likely dehydrated... drink some water and put lotion on your hands.


What does everyone here do to become a better writer? I want to be a writer when I grow up and I want to know if there are any writing excercises to become a better one. I know reading helps...but I'm just always in a writers block because all my writing is the same and it gets frustrating.
Know any way to improve my writing?
Anything...even if you think it sounds stupid.
Thanks! :) (link)
Always keep a notebook with you. ALWAYS. First rule of inspiration: it always tries to hit you when you're least prepared.

If you have writer's block, have think of five random words and write a couple sentences or a poem with them. Better yet, have someone else think of the words.
Find a picture you like and write about what's happening, what the people are thinking, et cetera. Better yet, do so with a picture you hate - it'll open up your possibilities (since you mentioned that all your writing sounds the same).
Write fan fiction. It sounds silly, but it helps your writing skills if you can convincingly write about someone else's world (making sure everyone's in character and the tone and mood don't change too much from the original will strengthen your writing as well).


does anyone have any good advice on how to have the perfect hairdo or style so u can make boys heads turn when u walk by? (link)
I take it you mean make thier heads turn in a good way... keep it clean and shiny, keep it from getting tangled. Try something a little layered if you have thin/flat hair.


whats an orgie? (link)
An orgy can be any chaotic group event (a fracas!), but it's usually used with sexual connotations.


By the way, I don't care if I SEEM desperate.I just want to help people if they want help...sorry for spazzing out before but you guys can get really harsh even if you didn't mean to. (link)
And, subsequently, I don't care if I SEEM harsh. I'm sure people realize you're here to give advice. Those of us with columns kind of ALL are.

(link)
130 pounds? You don't sound very overweight. Definitely not overweight enough for liposuction. If you really want to lose weight, though, excercise and eat healthier. It's tried and true. Yes, it takes work... but how does that old saying go?

Also, please keep in mind that most normal people could never look like models. Your body type likely isn't right for it (but plenty of larger-sized women are gorgeous... Liv Tyler isn't stick-thin, for instance... and then there was Marilyn Monroe)...


my boyfriend and i had sex 3 days after i got off my period, he bust in me. i don't start until the 15th but do you think there's a chance i could be pregnant if he bust right after i got off my period? (link)
Yes, actually, that's one of the highest risk times to get pregnant (especially if you have a long period). Sperm will stay alive inside your body for a few days.


YANKEES?
or
Red Sox
???
Make the right choice... (link)
Red Sox. I don't care what anyone says, I have been a Sox fan for my entire life and that's not going to change anytime soon.


Hey
This is Here To Help
To anybody who wants to ask me a question about anything that's bothering them, or things they have to deal with, and you don't want anybody seeing the question you asked, email me at
truevalue53@yahoo.com
please...I love helping people and I'll try helping you. (link)
I'm sorry, but you might not want to do this... not only does it take up space that could be used for real questions, but it's really just advertising and makes you seem a tad desperate.


I am a senior in highschool and once i graduate i would like to go into fashion designing or interior designing. I have "shadowed" an interior designer before and have helped people in their rooms with designs. I am also curretly designing my prom dress and would hopefully some day like to design my wedding dress. Just one concern.... What if i am totally out of my league and really have no clue with what i am doing. What if i go to college and major in this and then find out that it isnt for me? I guess its just a concern i have been having for awhile now, someone please give me advice. KT

(link)
If you're not sure what you want to do, go to a liberal arts school (or a design school where you can audit from nearby schools or something) and take more than the minimum side classes... you can always double-major or minor in something completely different, if you don't end up changing your mind entirely. The best college education gives you life skills as well as job options, so don't be afraid to do a little branching out. (Great, I'm beginning to sound like my mother. XP)


OK i have nothin to do and my head hurts and i dont feel good wut should i do
(link)
Take a painkiller and a bubble bath.


ok, this is kinda embarassing, but i heard that the first time you have sex, it hurts (for a girl)

true...false? (link)
This question has been asked before... check the one below yours in the "Sex" category for your answer.


i made my news years resolution to loose weight but the only problem is i cant stop eating like even when i am not hungry i need help and just to let you know iam 14 1/2 and over wieght (link)
Some ideas:

Tape a note to your fridge about snacking.

Make your snacks healthier (fruit is good for you and still tastes great, for example).

If you can't stop eating often, eat less at one time.

Take smaller portions (use smaller plates to make it seem the same).

Don't just eat things because they're there... try to keep in mind that you don't have to finish all your food.


Ive liked guy and only guys ever scence kindergarden, but now that im in middle school, im kinda afrid that im not only interested in guys...this is really embressing, but i have been lookin at girls breasts and butoxes. Im hardly doing it anymore, but im still a bit worried that i may be intrested in girls not just as a friend. im tryin to convence myself that its just a phase or im just tryin to compare mine to others. Please tell me if i am bi or if its just a phase, im really worried! Thanx,
Allie (a girl) (link)
Well, you could be bi - there's nothing wrong with that, no matter what people may say. If you are you just have to accept it.
BUT more likely it is just a phase... or rather, a state of mind - straight girls can still admire other girls' bodies. It's just the same as thinking a female star is gorgeous. Entirely normal.


im so much in love with neighbor and i wanna tell him but the words wont come out please help me?? (link)
How about if you start by reading all the answers people have already given you on your other questions?


DOES IT HURT TO HAVE BRAINS THE FIRST TIME IS THERE ANY PAIN FROM THINKING? (link)
I'm sorry, I can't answer this... I haven't thought yet. I believe people can only have one true idea and all thinking should be saved for then.

Or something.


Has everyone who posts here forgotten the basic rules of grammer?

Do they not know how to turn off CAPS LOCK?

Do they not know how to capitalise the letter I?

I refuse to answer any question that is unreadable because the author cannot be bothered to write properly. (link)
Yeah, good point. It's also quite annoying when someone posts about nine thousand times in a row.
To me, the lack of grammar and capitalization in a post signifies that the post's author doesn't really care. Tip to anyone who wants good advice: look like you spent some time thinking about your question. People will spend more time thinking of good answers for you. ^_^


i like this boy but im not sure if he likes me back should i ask him? but im like really shy he comes over everyday to see my baby sister which is 9 months old but i think his excuse is to see me i mean he is kind of skinny and plays football and im really in love with him but im bot to skinny im 130lbs but im losing weight and he is like 110lb i think im too fat for him cuz he likes girls like paris hilton and i want to be skinny like her andi have a few months to go to be like her so he is always looking and talking to me does this mean he likes me?please help (link)
If he won't date you because of your weight, he's not worth dating.

And please don't try too hard to look like Paris Hilton... it's not worth it - dieting is fine, eating disorders are not. I really don't think she's all that attractive anyway.


if the boy i like doesnt want to do anything when he is older for a job except sit on a computer and do his job there should i keep liking him or move on? i mean he is great around little kids and comes over everyday to see my baby sister and i think he will be a great dad and i want to be with him for eternity but i mean if he is going to be lazy and never do anything with me should i find a better man? iv liked him for 2 years and i think he likes me but im just worried he is going to sit and watch football allday... we are only 13 and 14 but im in love and dont know what to do please help me (link)
It's WAY too early to know if you're going to be with him forever... if you think he likes you, however, there's nothing wrong with dating him. Just know that it may not last your whole life - the future shouldn't concern you much, you're young. Your dreams and his will definitely change over time.


Ok, in health class, eighth grade, we have to learn a lot about the human body and what is good and what is not so good food to eat and stuff like that. Well, anyways, we were talking and there is this one pregnant girl in class, I asked her how she got pregnant and she laughed and said, "ask Joe" That was about a week ago, but I am scared to ask my health teacher because it seems as if everyone knows but, how do you get pregnant and is it true that when you have a baby it comes out as an egg then hatches?
Pregnancy Test (link)
Don't be scared to ask things because you're afraid of seeming ignorant... the only reason you shouldn't ask something is if you feel uncomfortable talking about it with your teacher. If you have a question, see if you can ask after class when your classmates won't be listening.
