about

so i generally go by erin. i'm probably 19 years old. i hate my birthday. i go to penn state mckeesport, and i'm majoring in meteorology. i work at a freaking pizza hut. and i like the colors blue and green. so here's the deal. i would like to describe myself as mature, but that's hardly the truth. i love laughing and making others laugh. i'm random. i'm sarcastic. you'll think i'm crazy the first time you meet me, but i promise you'll learn to love me. i live for partying with friends and gettin a little crazy. i don't care what you think about me. i'm not afraid to be honest. if it hurts your feelings somewhere along the way, oh-well. i really hate when people tell me what i can or can't do. i hate asking for help. i'm pretty independent. i have serious trust issues. i don't know why, and i can't help it. i overthink things and worry too much, yet manage to be too impulsive at times. i have OCD. and i'm a perfectionist. it doesn't take much to make me upset. sometimes i cry for no reason. then i laugh about it, cause i'm so stupid sometimes. i trip a lot. get used to it. i can play the piano like a fiend. i have to sniff everything. i'm easy-going and hate making decisions. i love to stand outside in thunderstorms, until someone has to pull me back inside. i'm really addicted to mountain dew. i'm a huge sucker for a guy with a guitar. i'm probably too nice for my own good. and one last thing. u will never hear me scrape my fork against my plate. ever.

i don't normally answer a whole lot of questions on here, mostly because they're either stupid or asked a million times.

inbox questions get my first priority. :]

just please don't send me any freakishly long or stupid questions, because i won't even read them.

BTW if you're wondering about "cows in your tuba", it's an inside joke from band camp!

hahah "one time at band camp..." 8]

Hey!! I GOT IN TO MSU! Thank you so much for helping me with my essay! It was so considerate of you to correct it! Without even getting anything in return. And I need to know that you take a lot of pride in being such an unselfish person - there are not a lot of people who would do what you did! Especially for a complete stranger! You did it quickly, you did it thoroughly.. and you have to be an amazing individual to put that much effort into something that doesnt affect you. You are the sweetest!

KNOW that studying in America has been my dream since the 7th grade, and you have helped make my dream come true. Know it, and never forget it. You've changed my life and opened up possibilities I would never have otherwise. If I can ever repay you somehow - let me know.

Aww thank you!

I cannot shave with a razor without cutting myself. So I usually shave where you put the shaving creme on and wait for 3 min then wash it off with water. It works. But is it ok if i do that to my vagina area? I dont want to get cuts on my vagina. Thanks if u help!:]

That is completely fine, just as long as you're careful. Also, make sure you buy the sensitive formula, so it doesn't get irritated. :]

does anyone know some good sites?
ty for anything.

if you watch the show greek, does anyone have any good quotes from it? i searched on google but it went back to like aincient greek quotes and when i did the show it was like only reviews. Thanks!

The Internet Movie Database (IMDB) has some:

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0976014/

Just click on any episode, scroll down, and you'll see some quotes from said episode. :]

i'm making a cd for my boyfriend and i have a few cute songs and like "you make me a better person" songs haha but i only have like four :[ please help meee!!!!

KC & JoJo - All My Life

It's about the cutest love song ever made, and you've probably heard it before. :]

ok I have been watching this show called "High School Confidential" and of the one's I have seen everyone of them has said how they learned so much about themselves during the 4 years and they discovered who they really are...
So I was wondering for those of you who are out of high school: did you find yourself during high school...or learn things about yourself? and for those who are still there: do you think that you are learning things about yourself?

I'm out of high school and from experience, you do learn some things about yourself during those 4 years. Maybe it varies, but it was nothing major for me.

Now that I'm out of high school and in college, I've learned sooo much about myself. I've changed a whole lot, and I'm way more mature than I used to be. I realized my limits and who my true friends were. I got over the silly high school crush and found a real man. I learned it's good to stand up for myself and not care what people think of me.

In my personal opinion, I think that once your outside of all the high school drama and crap, and finally start college, you really start to learn who you really are. And also learn to love yourself as well. :]

does anyone know where i can find any of the dear ashley clips? [dear ashley, thatsssss me-- with amanda bynes]

Youtube has a couple.

Try googling it too, you'll probably get a lot more results. :]

Ok, so quick question. I just got done watching the new episode (100th episode!), but I don't understand about the next episode. So new episode's don't start until April 14th?? But that's on Monday, so are they not coming on Tuesday's anymore?? And, does anyone know how many more episodes are left?? I'm just confused right now. Thanks a million!!

I'm not sure how many episodes are left, but they are changing it to Monday instead of Tuesday, and new episodes will start April 14th. :]

Tonight was the episode Hundred, and sadly I missed it because of work and I really want to watch it now and I've checked a few sites for the whole episode but I can't find a place that has it on there yet. Does anyone know where I can find it now? Or if you saw the episode please give me full details of what happened.

The TV Guide's website gives a pretty detailed recap. :]

It seems like every friday that my boyfriend and I go out to eat all the buffets serve fish. Why is it always fish friday? Can anyone explain or is it just some odd coincidence?

I'm a Christian Catholic. :]

Like the people below me said, we can't eat meat on Fridays. I don't know TOO much about it, but it does have to do with the Last Supper with Jesus and his Disciples.

We go through a 40-day fast to celebrate Christ being risen (Easter). The fast is just a preparation for this.

This is also the same time that most Catholics give something up (for me, it's mountain dew) for the entire Lenten period.

So as soon as Easter is here, you won't be seeing as much fish on Fridays haha.

Hope that cleared things up. :]

when i straighten my hair they top always has a bunch of flyaways. is there any product to eliminate this frizzy stuff?

Since straightening your hair is really damaging to it, I would suggest using a thermal protection spray. Most of these will condition your hair and also add shine to it. They're available at any drug store and aren't expensive at all. You could also buy anti-frizz shampoo/conditioner/creme. Sunsilk has a line of these, and it worked really well for me. :]

I am graduating from highschool in May and I have an open house to plan. I would like to know any unique/cool/fun idea's people/siblings/or you possibly did for an open house? Like what did you use to throw all the cards in? (Did you get a big box?) Did you have an autograph dog? Games? Fun food? THeme?

Thanks

Do you mean like a graduation party?

Mine was awesome! I used a big decorated box for everyone to throw their cards in AND I had an autograph dog (very cute idea, i loved it!). Put the autograph dog right next to the box so people know to sign it. :]

For games, we just had miscellaneous things like volleyball (for kids/teens) and horseshoes (for adults). I also had a DJ there to play cool music for each age group (this isn't TOO expensive, it depends who you get - my brother knew him, so it was about $100 for the whole day).

For food, we had Smokey Bones cater it for us, so there was plenty of really good food to go around. Everyone LOVED it! Just make sure you get enough food, because I had so many people there, we ran out and had to order more.

I didn't have any particular theme, except everything was decorated in green and gold, my school colors. We had lots of balloons, streamers, and confetti to make everything look festive. :]

Anyway, hope I was of some help and congratulations on graduating highschool. :D

My essay has to be in pretty soon so if you wouldn't mind taking a look at it asap that would be great! Sorry I'm in a hurry!

I sent it, let me know if you got it. :]

My brother reads my text messages
and it really pisses me off. I was going out with this guy Joe Hullenfield and he was like "Whose Joe H and why does he call you baby?"
Cuz i left my purse in the kitchen and he took me phone out.
i tell him to stop but he just keeps doing it
its so annoying and an invasion of provacy and im mad because i ddint want him to see any of my txts. and yes he read ALL OF THEM. not just that one.

Annoying.. >:[

I agree with what the person below me said. Also, try telling your parents about what he is doing. If he doesn't stop, there is usually a way to lock your phone with a password. If you don't know how to do this, look in your phone manual, and it should tell you. You might also want to make sure you never leave your phone lying around again, so that he doesn't get the opportunity. Hope that helps. :]

i heard this song, i didnt get alot of the lyrics
all i got was "Just a little communication, baby"
(the lyrics were sung very fast)
something like that, and it was kind of a hip-hop, techno kind of song, does anyone know what it would be??

This it?

http://www.mtv.com/music/artist/womack_bobby/970184/lyrics.jhtml

I searched on google, and it was the only one I found with those lyrics. :]

I understand that if you are a boy and you are attracted to girls or vice versa, you are heterosexual. I understand that if you are a boy and you are attracted to boys, or if you are a girl and you sre attracted to girls you are condisered homosexual.
But what are you considered if you don't like either?

I'm pretty sure if you don't like males OR females, you're considered "asexual". Hope that helped. :]

I've written an application essay (very short, 400 words) but I need someone to correct it. I live in Europe, and am a bit unsure on the spelling and grammatical mistakes I may have made. If anyone could just take a look at it..? that would save my life! Or maybe suggest a program that corrects things automatically? Thanks!

Haha, I'll gladly check it for you. :]

Hello, I was wondering what the difference is, if there even is a difference, between 'French Kissing' and 'Making-Out.'

Thanks So Much!

Nope, no difference, they mean the same thing. :]

Hi, I'm just wondering how long a letter takes to be sent from New Kensington, Pennsylvania to Bethel Park, Pennsylvania? It's in the same state so I'm guessing it shouldn't be too long but my friend mailed me the letter like, 3 days ago and I still haven't gotten yet! Would I get it tomorrow or something? I appreciate you guys answering, thanks!

You should probably get it soon. If she sent it 3 days ago, that was Sunday, and since there is no mail on Sundays, that probably caused the delay. :]

When I turn my computer on it goes directly into my account.. instead of the login screen. My mother has an account and guest account is on. Mom is limited.

Anyway, how do I make it open up to the login screen as opposed to my account?

Well I'm assuming you have windows. Just right-click the main screen where all your icons are and click properties (where you can change the wallpaper/screensaver). Go to the screensaver tab, and check the box that says "On resume, password protect". That's all you gotta do. :]
