So, like, I heard that Taylor Swift had been dating Joe Jonas all of this time or something (does anyone know how long Taylor Swift and Joe Jonas had been dating anyway?). Joe Jonas of the Jonas Brothers, of course (Jonas Brothers = Nick Jonas, Kevin Jonas, Joe Jonas).

Anyway, apparently Taylor Swift is claiming that Joe Jonas broke up with her in a message that took like 27 seconds to say on the phone. I have no idea what could be said in 27 seconds other than, "Hey, Taylor, this is Joe...yeah, sorry but it's just not working out. KTHX. BYE!" Taylor Swift was supposedly all cool about it and said something like she probably won't even remember Joe Jonas broke up with her when she was 18. How in the WORLD would not remember dating Joe Jonas?! haha

Anyway, I'm just curious if all of this is true or if someone totally lied to me about Taylor Swift and Joe Jonas of the Jonas Brothers? My best friend said this happened back in October she thinks but isn't quite sure. Anyone have any additional information on this or websites I could read the story at if it IS true?

first off.. are you 12? because the way your talking reminds me of a really young girl. just wondering. dont talk like that. anyway. look at people.com....or taylor swifts website. any real office websites can give you better answers. looking here will result in more gossip and unreliable answers.

if u go tanning 3 days a week, for 30 minutes each session with a tanning lotion with a bronzer in it..will u get too dark??

yes. 30 minutes is too long esp if you are just starting. start with 5-10 then gradually work ur way to 20. dont go any longer than 25

ORRRR just use a self tanner and pass on the whole cancer thing ;]

Hello. I don't have eating disorder, but I keep burning calories. Ever since I sae Mean Girls in 05, I saw Regina George gaining wieght. I too want to gain weight that fast. But I don't know where to find them. Or how much they'll cost. Also, will it tast like other candy bars? Is ther achohol in it. Because if there is, then I'll try something else. Oh yaeh, I'm 13.

if there was alcohol in them, im sure you'd need to be 21 to even be able to buy them. like the other person said...i'd be suprised if they existed. just eat more carbs and healthy fats. make your calorie intake higher (up to 2200 a day). maybe go to a nutritionist.

I want to start tanning in a tanning bed..Im 15 years old and my mom is fine with it..I don't want any answers like "you can get skin cancer" or "you can die" BECAUSE there are so many things you can die from and i already know that..i just want to know how dark would you get going tanning 4 days a week? and i would be using a lotion to deepen your tan.. and how much does it cost monthly? please answer quickly

expensive

one session is usually $7 minumum. when you start going dont go for very long. you need to start with maybe 5 minutes..then gradually youll be able to go in for longer. monthly packages are usually around $40. this means you can go whenever you want for a month.

tanning made me feel better about myself because i normally have very fair skin...now that i have a pretty good tan from the summer, im not going to use a tanning bed anymore. in reality its NOT worth it. i know you dont wanna hear it but it isnt. im going to start using a self tanner and getting tan from the sun instead of artifical, deadly tanning beds. whatever you do, do NOT go tanning twice in one day. girls have died from this..your insides will literally cook.

be smart and safe

How can I mix up and create new outfits out of all the clothes I already have? I have zero creativity and I always end up wearing jeans with a tshirt and layered cami underneath. I need some new inspiration, anyone got any ideas?

Btw, I've tried fashion magazines, but I don't have the money to go out buy a bunch of new clothes.

since you dont want to buy new clothes, you could switch up colors with ones you already have. put some colors together that you normally wouldnt. maybe like pink and yellow. something thatll make it stand out. also you could find/buy some new jewlery. just some cheap pieces you can find probably anywhere. you could probably look through fashion magazines still..but look closer this time. because you might have something similar to what those girls are wearing. be creative. try anyway. im not creative either lol. good luck though!

I'm a 15/female and I'm wondering what in the world I should give my boyfriend for Valentines. We've been going out since Dec. 24 (aww, how cute. :D) Now that we've got that taken care of, lets move on. Lol. Anyways, and it's my first Valentines day to actually have a special someone.
- He doesn't like chocolate, so there goes that.

I really don't know, I thought about making him a homemade card, writing a whole bunch of sweet stuff in there and whatnot. Do you think that a guy would actually like that?

or if you have any other suggestions, please give them. (:

Thank you!

make him cookies / a mix cd :D good luck! xo

In one of the colleges I'm interested in, it says no electrical appliances. You're allowed to have a small refridgerator, so I'm assuming they mean heaters, toasters, etc. I know every college is different, but generally, are you allowed to bring hair dryers and hair straighteners?? Can you use them in your room or do some dorms require you to only use them in the common bathroom?? Any ideas or experiences?? Thanks!!

theres no way they can let you use your hair stuff. your probably just not allowed to have toasters, heaters, maybe microwaves. because they cant not let you have a lamp or light. and where would you hook up your computer? if for some WEIRD reason they dont allow that.. then you probably shouldnt look at that school. :/ thats just crazy. im 99% sure they mean those things because they can cause fires easily and can use too much power for one room

i understand the basic concept. its like s bunch of friends, well more like sisters but i still dont know the details.

-how do you get in one
-do you all live together
-how many people are typically in one
-how do you find out about them
-what do you do
-is it like a bad thing?
-do you hook up with the frats
-is there anyway to tell that someone is in one
(because im always at a small college to see my family member play hockey and i want to know if i can tell if anyone is in one.)


i just like want a summary any details

ill answer all of your questions how you asked them to make it easier! lol
-you rush. in the beginning of the semester, there will be notices all over campus about where to go to meet the girls in the sorority. theyll tell you about it and how to join. you can usually just get in without any problems but at bigger schools it can be kind of competitive. but not always.
-yes and no. some girls can live in the house or all of the girls can. depends how many members and how many bedrooms basically.
-how many members can range..look online at the schools your looking at. go to greek life and you will find information about each sorority at that school.
-you'll find out in the beginning of the semester.
-some see it as a bad thing. it can bring good opportunities and networking for jobs.
-you dont have to hook up with the frats. its not required or anything but yes, it happens, alot.
-sororities and fraternities usually wear alot of clothes with their sorority/frat name on it. youll see shirts/hoodies/stuff like that with greek letters on them.

if you need any help just send me a message in my inbox! hope i helped!

I was looking at fashion merchandising and management courses at FIT and LIM in New York and I was considering it.

But could someone tell me what exactly these courses entail? What kind of jobs am I going to have access to with a degree in fashion merchandising.
And more importantly, will these jobs be good jobs, will I have a chance to move up in the world and make a good living out of them?

i dont remember the website exactly because i always get it confused lol but go to google.com and search "occupational outlook handbook" click on the link and you can find job descriptions, salary.. everything u wanna know!

good luck =]

hey im 13 and a female, but im not your avarge 8th grader. i smoke weed and drink offten. i got into this stuff early becasue i have a lot of older friends and my brother is the same way but hes a senior in high school. im not sextualy active but i've done everything but. i feel like im starting to get out of control. my brother is like my best friend and he even told me that im getting really bad. i had a couple parties while my parents were away and when my brother went to school he heard a ton of stories about me hooking up wtih his friends. i feel really bad because the only thing i didnt want was for my brother to be ashamed of me. but at the same time i think he's being over protective because my friends siblings dont even care like mine does. my brother told me that the kids he hangs out with that started as early as i did have std and are probably not making out of high school. i dont know if i should change my ways but all i know is that this has gone to far. please help me! thank you.

most girls who start out this early, never graduate high school because they have to stay home and take care of their kid.

i agree with the other answer .. get new friends, stand up for yourself, get help, tell an adult, go to your school psychologist or counselor, go to the library and get some self-help books.

only you can help yourself. when others have to stop u..youve gone too far.

I bought Certain Dri yesterday and I applied it before bed like it said to do in the directions. It itched a little bit but I thought that was because I had just shaved. But tonight I did the same thing but I shaved hours before applying. And it itched like crazyyy and it huurt. So I took it off and it still kinda hurts. Should I stop using it or is it supposed to do that?

it hurt for me too. i hated it. it almost like burned. i stopped using it. im not sure if its supposed to do that but it happened to me too ;[

Ok so i'mkinda on a diet or as i like to consider it a lifestyle choice so anywho i power walk an hour aday after school but then wehn i get home i'm always so tempted to eat cause i'm so hungry and i'm retty sure it's only cause i dont eat anything all day until i get home so i want to start eating breakfast and just little healthy snakcs during the day but i never have time how can i make time and stay motivated also by not eating junk food or any sweets and drinking only water milk and some juices and powerwalking an hour a day and yeah how much weight do you think i can lose in one week

safely, you can only lose one pound a week. if you diet the safe way. and to do that, you should burn 500 calories a day. so maybe before your powerwalk, do crunches, jump&jacks, anything to get started, then do them again when you get back from your powerwalk. and you should defintely be eating more than that. breakfast definitely. 3 meals a day and a snack or two in between. healthy things of course
