i'm having some trouble deciding on what religion i actually am. i was brought up catholic and i'd like to believe i'm catholic because i believe in everything the bible says about jesus and the resurrection and all. however i think that gay marriage shouldn't be a problem (as long as they don't raise children). and i don't see the big deal in having sex before marriage, as long as you're in love and not just being a prostitute or whatever. i don't really know much about religion so can someone help me out to religions i could look into? thankss.
I was born into a Catholic family and when I was around 10 we changed our religion to Baptist. Then I went to an Adventist church. I am still looking for a religion I like. There is nothing wrong with a gay couple raising children. Here are some sites that have different religions listed and gives you some insight to them.

ok so a bit about me.. im a hardcore cheerleader... welli try to be.
im also starting trampoliningand gymnastics soon.
the thing is, on wednesday i will be having a muscel biopsy.. which im some what scared of so anyone who has expirience of that.. a few words would help!!!
thebiopsy will be in my leg on my inner thigh.
im unsure of what i can do to keep my fitness... as good as i can after i have this biopsy.0 ive been told i wont be able to do sport for 2-3 weeks, but what do people suggest i could to to help mantain muscle in other areas of my body without using my legs?
thanks! vikki
Vikki, I just wanted to say good luck on wed. with the biopsy. try not to be too scared. it will be over before you know it. Last year I took my 12 year old son to the childrens hospital to have a lump removed from his shin. He was scared too, but the next day he was up and walking and telling everyone he wasnt scared. everything will be ok. talk to the doctor, tell him what you do(cheerleading,gymnastics,etc.)he would be the best person to ask information on maintaining muscle without using your legs.
Okay so i bought my new two story home on yoville, and have moved into it! I love it and have decorated and everything. The problem is when someone goes to visit me they go to my old apartment, why?
And how can i fix it?
relax. It takes people a little while to remember new addresses. When you invite someone over, remind them of your new address. You can say(jokingly) don't forget I moved to xxstreet.
I have to choose between a softball banquet, nags head, or a mud bog this weekend. and I've decided that the banquet would be lame, sooooo someone help me decide on the other two!

Even though a softball banquet might be lame,I think you should go to it. You might not ever get a chance to go to another one. Who knows, you might meet someone and enjoy yourself. nags head and mud bogs will still be there after this weekend.
noone really helped. so maybe itll work better this time,

Im a 21 yr old female and I live on my own. Im not fat in the least bit, Im just not as thin as I used to be and I dont like my stomach or arms anymore. I have a real bad habit of eating alit of junk food because I always could without gaining weight. But now I am gaining weight and I need to stop. I want some advice on cheap diets I could go on. Healthy food is more expensive alot of the time and since I live on my own I dont have all the money in the world to spend since I have other bills. What are some cheaper diets or healthier food that I can get to help me lose some weight? I only want to lose maybe 15 pounds. Thanks!
Don't go on a cheap diet, they don't work. Most of the time you end fatter than you started. Start a healthy lifestyle instead.Instaed of buying junk food buy healthy food. Healthy food does not always mean expensive. It's all a matter of choices. Don't buy chips, buy popcorn. Don't buy soda buy flavored water. Buy fruit instaed of candy. Also do situps and pushups to help your problem areas. Walking helps to reduce weight and is great for your heart. Here are some sites that promote a healthy lifesyle.

My 16th birthday is coming up and my friends and family keep asking what I want. I have no idea what I want, plus I really don't like letting people buy me stuff. Any ideas for gifts I could ask for? Theres a ring that I want but it's too expensive. Here's the website. http://www.valou3cap.com/
Tell your family and friends that you love this ring thats expensive and maybe they can get together and get you a visa gift card. They can each put a little money on it. Then you can add some of your money to it. I give my kids gift cards all time because I don't know what to get them anymore.
OK, so im obviously in college.. I just recently took into being a full-time student, but im still taking the first classes of college, such as Computers, Speech, Comp102, And algebra...Anyways i have this semester left to think about what should i major in..Im kinda undecided..What are really good paying jobs that i can take up on?.. I love to travel, help others ppls in getting help or advice, the outdoors, working at a office,& love animals. I HATE math, so nothing under that. when reading about what i like to do, what can be a good major for me to study?..thanks!
Have you thought about being a veternarian? Many horse farms need traveling vets.You go from one farm to another. How about working for people that race horses, they travel all around the world. How about working with Animal Rescue League. They save animals. Forest Rangers work outdoors and help animals. There are soooooo many options out there. Talk to a guidence counselor, they will help guide you in the right direction.
My boyfriend is thinking about getting another dog, and if it's a female, and him and I were thinking about the name Sasha.
Sasha was also the name of my cat who died a few years ago. My mother says it's bad luck to name animals after another but I think it's sort of an honor, and I love the name. Is it heartless to do that?
I don't think it's bad luck to name a pet the same name after a deceased pet. I have had many dogs and cats over the years. I loved them and the names I gave them. To me the name has to fit the animal. If it looks like a Sasha to you name it Sasha. I love that name, I would name a Husky dog Sasha.
I'm 19/f and I've been trained in classical and jazz voice for about a year, but I was wondering about pop voice. In classical, they teach you to use head voice on high notes, mixed head and chest on middle notes, and chest on really low notes. In pop singing, do singers who"belt" like Kelly Clarkson, Mariah Carey, etc. use completely chest voice? because I feel like when I try to sing a pop song with any head voice, it sounds very operatic and doesn't have that pop-like belting quality that everyone admires when these famous pop singers perform. My voice is on the deep, heavy side for a female. Could this be the reason? Does belting mean completely using chest? And also, classical training teaches that your voice should never feel like it's "locked" in the throat. Is this true too for pop, because when I use chest on higher notes, it's in the throat. Any help would be appreciated!! thanks!!
I would talk to the people who trained you in jazz and classical voice. Ask their opinion. You might need a Pop trainer. Singing is like playing an instrument, you might need to learn a different way of using your chest voice with pop music.
Hi guys.
I have a real problem :-/ There is a guy that I really like, his name is Steve. For like 3 months now we have been close, & he has said he really likes me on many occasions. We have never committed to anything like "being boyfriend and girlfriend" but basically we wouldn't date anyone else. At first we were just getting to know eachother as we had just met, but recently we have become close. Things have been bad with us lately. Firstly another guy(Nick) asked me out right infront of him, and despite me saying no to the guy, Steve was still annoyed. His friends say he has trust issues and has been hurt in the past etc so I can understand. Me and Nick are just friends and it will always be this way (as I have explained to Steve). One night me and Nick were hanging out with some of my friends and some of his, and Steve saw us and went mad at me. He said he didn't want to speak to me again and I should just date Nick. I tried explaining but he wouldn't listen.
A week later, Steve emailed me and said he was really sorry that he dealt with it that way. But when I saw Steve again he said "I don't want a relationship - with anyone. I'm not ready and I need to clear my mind" Although I really like him, I accepted how he felt and just left him alone. But now Steve is is saying "I really liked you, I wanted to be with you, but I know you like Nick and not me. I don't want to speak to you" etc etc. What the hell is with this guy?!?? I told him I don't like Nick in that way but he just isn't listening! I'm happy to move on from Steve, but only if he doesn't want me. He always seems to change his mind! :-/
When Nick asked you out did you say "no, I'm with Steve" or did you just say no? The way YOU answered the question might have given Steve the idea you don't like him the way he likes you. He cares for you. I can tell by his stupid reaction. Start over with Steve by calling him and ask him out to a place where none of your friends will go. Be with only Steve. You might get a chance to clear things up and tell each other how you really feel.
I am in a relationship, with a man who will do absolutely anything for me. ANYTHING. He is forgiving, great to my 3 kids that are not his - just a wonderful man. He loves me. I cant love him back, I think it's because of my girls dad. I love him still and pretend that I dont. We even all hang out together at times. I even make friends with my ex's "candidates". I cant figure out if it is the thick wall I built around my heart due to all the heartaches and dissapointments or if it really is because I still love my ex. I dont think my ex and I can ever be together again. I care about the man I am with dearly but dont see myself loving him or falling in love. My kids are so attached to him and I dont want to stay in it because of that only; as much as I love them - I dont want to be unhappy. I have a decision to make so that hearts are not broken. I need advice on how to handle this. I dont know if I can get up the guts to tell my ex that I do love him still. It is so stupid, because that man has hurt me so much in the past. I dont know what to do. Do I try to continue this relationship? do I let him be? Do I confess to my ex? Do I let my kids down?
My family down? They adore him and think that he is the one. Its been a year and I cant say I love you. Please give me some advice.
You do love the man your are with now, you said it yourself, He's a wonderful man. It will take time for your head and heart to catch up to each other. After my husband left me I didn't think I could love anyone else. I was still in love with him. But I met my boyfriend went out a couple times and then oneday I looked in his eyes and I knew, I loved him. It took years for my boyfriend to say "I Love You". We were both hurt by someone that we did not want to give in to the love. But it grew stronger everyday. We have been together for 15 years now. As President Reagan said "Tear down the wall". Make yourself happy, spend more time with your new man and less with your ex.
I'm almost 16, and I'm a female.
I'm not sure, but I think I may have a mental illness. I feel like my emotions don't match the situation they are meant for - if someone gives me bad news, such as someone's sick, or someone close to them just died, I feel like laughing or smiling.
I don't cry at funerals, and I don't feel openly sad when someone dies. If the emotion I display is sadness, I can't cry in front of people; I always try to find a quiet place to cry by myself. I only cry around twice a year, give or take a few times.
I get angry at my family a lot to the point where I sit in my room for a large portion of the day during the summer unless I go to work or hang out with my friends. I feel very disconnected from my family; that they're all against me. My brother has Asperger's Syndrome, and I always feel I get the shorter end of the stick. I don't like talking to my family a whole lot.
I always feel anxious about past situations. I tend to linger on choices I made in the past, wondering what would have happened if I made the "right" choice to the point where I feel very depressed and it affects the rest of my day. Whilst doing so, I often get bad headaches and I have no motivation to do anything for the remainder of the day. This mostly has to do with relationships and such.
I get jealous often if someone becomes happy because of a wrong choice I made to the point where I can't stand the person. I apologize a lot because I have the tendency to get angry at those who are close to me, and I always look into things too closely (as I probably am right now).
What should I do?
16 is a tough age. You have hormonal changes going on that affects your mind as well as your body. I suggest that you should talk to a professional about your problems. Don't be affraid. A psycologist will talk to you about what you feel and get down to the problem. It could be the mixture of your body changing and a little jealousy of your brother. Both are perfectly normal things. Just don't sit there and say it will pass, Please talk to someone.
Later in life, I aspire to open a cake bakery. I love jazz and will always have it playing and would like to incorporate it in the name. I was thinking 'The Harlem Bakery' like Harlem Jazz, but my boyfriend said, "It reminds me of black people." Lol. And also, "It sounds like you are in New York, when you're not." Which I won't be, I'll open it in Portland. But last night I came up with Come Rain or Come Shine Bakery, a Billie Holiday song that is the song my boyfriend and I will have our first dance to in the wedding.. Sorry it's so long, thank you!
I love the name you were thinking about, but it might be to long or costly for a sign. How about "All that Jazz Bakery" or "The Jazz Bakery"
