if you could be anyone in the world alive or dead who would u be?
Myself. I love my life and like anyone else, I get jealous of others at times, but I am more fortunate than most people on Earth. I have a beautiful big house to live in, a caring, loving family, an education, and especially a future and success ahead of me. I wouldn't trade what I have for the world because I know how rare my circumstances are since I am genuinely thankful. I can't tell you how many people I know with exactly those things I listed above, yet they are stressed out by life, frustrated and even depressed, saying things like, "FML." I am a very positive thinker and I make the most of what I have. Remember: You make mistakes, but mistakes don't make you. Appreciate your life and make the most of it :)
Well, I'm an eight grader. And every year there's a dance called the "Eighth Grade Dance". I've went for my sixth and seventh years but this year I just didn't want to go through all the stress of finding a dress and such. So I decided I didn't want to go and that there would be other better, funnier dances in high school. But there's a good chance I will get nominated for Queen.. but that won't really change my mind about going. And my mother who hates to shop said that I HAVE to go and that she would take me shopping for a dress this weekend. But I told her again how I didn't like getting stressed about finding a cute dress, and that it wouldn't even be that fun because dances at my school are usually like stand around and talk. She finally agree and said "Okay, it's your choice but I think you should go." And now I just feel guilty and bad. And it feels like I should go just to make her happy.
I just don't understand why she would go shopping with me when she hates shopping and spend a lot of money on a dress and shoes and everything. And when we shop together we both usually get really frustrated. And I'm just trying to spare that all. So why would she want me to go so badly?
As a mother, she probably just wants you to go and have a good time. All your friends are probably going and she just wants you to go to this one, as well. If it's concerning you, just ask her. She's probably not hiding anything from you. She'd rather you be out and having fun than at home watching tv or doing homework. Hope that helps :)
OKay I want to do a survey. and i want to ask what is everyone Top number one thing and important thing to think about 24/7?
Enjoying every single moment of life -- either good or bad -- because any minute, everything we have ever known can be taken away from us. That is the most important thing that every single human being should recognize: carpe diem.
Sorry if this seems like a stupid question, but I was wondering what the difference was between accelerated english and honors english in high school? I'm starting high school, and I'm going to be a freshman... I have accelerated english 1. Is this a good thing or a bad thing? :|
It's a good thing to be in English IA (as we call it) but it would benefit you more in the long term if you're in English Honors, the level above A-level. In my school, if a student gets As in Honors-level classes, their GPA may rise above a 4.0, like myself. I was in A-level freshman year and got A+'s with my eyes closed (I was already in three other Honors classes), and ended up moving up to Honors sophomore year (I did very well) and now I'm in AP for this upcoming year. Obviously, there's a catch: Honors is very different from A-level. The teachers expect a lot from you and give you a lot of work, and yes, students did end up dropping the English class. I could handle it (I'm a math person, by the way) and went through the year with flying colors. If you can handle the stress of it and can manage your time effectively, you'll be fine. The truth is, I would have never learned how to be as organized, efficient, goal-oriented, and motivated as I am today without being in Honors and AP classes.
I assume you aren't in any other Honors classes since you didn't know the difference, but moving up in one class will not break you by any stretch of imagination. I admit, I was in all honors and AP classes first semester but ended up dropping my biggest load and my hardest class, which was the best decision I've ever made. So if you feel like English H is too much for you, just drop the class! I highly recommend you give it a try, though. It may seem difficult at first, but you LEARN to go with the flow.

Male 31 yrs.
About 5 years ago I meet a girl with whom I fell in love as soon as I laid eyes on her, we talked for a while that day, but after, did not see each other for a while. A couple months after I saw her again, but then I come to find out that she was married, so I gave it up. We ran into each other from time to time, I even met her husband and so on. Time went by and we lost contact had not seen her for almost 2 years now. A little over a month and a half ago, she came into my life, she added me as a friend on myspace. We started talking, and for what she told it seemed she had been looking for me. She also has a little beautiful girl whom i now love. Anyway, she's divorced now and has been dating for almost a year now. We are now BF and GF, but I'm not quite sure about her, at the beginning everything was nice just like any new relationship. As I get to know her more; she has a temper I can't joke with her about anything cos she gets mad, she doesn't value me very much either, she judges people on the street, guys are always calling her cell when she's with me, at a party I asked her to dance she said no but then her boss came to asked her to dance and she went right out, she's tried to break up with me twice already but the next day she's ok, sometimes I try to kiss her and she says I don't let her breath so I back up, but yet she makes plans about the future with me, she's always listening to love songs about ex relationships and so on. I don't know what to do, I love her and she knows it, but I can't go on with it anymore, yet I can't get her out of my head. i feel like she's using me.. please help.
I'm so sorry that I couldn't have answered sooner. I definitely think you should stop and move on. You're only 31! You have so much left ahead of you and if she's tried breaking up with you in the past and is not 100% into the relationship, it will just hurt both of you more in the future. I think you should try to go out and meet other women because I'm sure you're a very attractive young man and lots of women would love to date you and give you a chance. Don't give up hope. You can get over her. She isn't worth it if she treats you as she does and her emotions are so out of whack. You don't have forever so make sure you wake up everyday and are happy and do something productive to reach your goals. Best of luck and thank you for inboxing me.
I want a small pet. I was thinking of, geril, hamster, ferret, sugar glider, chinchilla... Ferrets I heard can be aggressive, shed too much. Hamsters may not be personable enough for me. Chinchillas and SUgar Gliders Are adorable but I do not know much about them as pets. I want a pet that will sleep and poop in there own cage. A pet I can take out daily and spend some time with him/her. A pet that will be friendly and is legal to have as a pet in canada. Any ideas of which small pet I should get and what store in toronto would sell it? Thanks
hey!
okay so i used to have hamsters but you're right -- they're really small and not too responsive. and they have a very, very short lifespan. so after they passed away a few years ago, my family and i decided to get guinea pigs.
i love them to death. they squeak when they want food or when they want to be pet, they go to the bathroom in their own cage, and they're really easy to take care of. they start out small but if they get fat like mine, they become a nice size so you can hold them and cuddle with them and they love it.
hope i helped :)
EDIT:
if you clean their cages often, they don't smell bad!
My handwriting isn't the neatest. I would just like to define it, make it smoother and rounder..but also neater...so it doesn't look as scribbly.
What would be the best way to ''define'' my handwriting?
Thanks!
honestly, practice.
what i would suggest is write out the alphabet in the EXACT handwriting that you want, and each day, write for 30 minutes non-stop about your day trying your best to follow the alphabet you laid out. don't worry about speed -- just precision.
after you can write in your desired handwriting NEATLY, then try to speed it up a little.
i have to say, i have pretty darn neat handwriting, but i don't write that fast at ALL. it's either slow and neat or fast and illegible (usually what i use for oral notes during class, then i go home and retype them).
so it's okay if you write slowly, as long as it's neat. just try to practice writing each day and DO NOT give up. don't make drastic changes. like do it one letter at a time. for example, i remember that i used to make my "e"'s round instead of flat and pointy and when i first witnessed someone write it differently, i immediately integrated it in to my writing. so try to do it a letter at time. maybe each day, say "okay, i'm going to define my 'a''s today" and just concentrate on that letter. and just make it cumulative (e.g., monday = a, tuesday = b, wednesday = integrate both a and b).
but honestly, PRACTICE is the only way! :)

I don't think I want a boyfriend. I'm very busy with school. I don't want the commitment. I don't want to trust someone like that right now. I know either we'd break up within the next year or it would be even harder moving away in September for college. I'm perfectly capable of getting a boyfriend. My parents really want me to have one, I think it worries them that I don't.
Am I just putting up a wall to avoid getting hurt or am I just better off being single? Is it advisable to lose the excuses or are they valid enough to remain single? Who knew this was such a big deal. Thanks for the advice!
honestly, it's completely upto you.
although i'm not as old as you, i feel the same way. i am perfectly capable of getting a boyfriend and sometimes i wish i had one, although when i think about it, boys my age (16) are very lustful and horny. they say they care and everything just seems really fake.
i, like you, am a very good student and feel like getting a boyfriend would just create more stress for me. it would also make a huge impact on my very good female friends (and i suppose male friends as well). i remember when my old best friend (she still thinks we are best friends) got a boyfriend a year ago. things were never the same, and i don't want to do that to my new best friend.
those are VERY valid reasons. do not be pressured to get a boyfriend if you already have your priorities straight. i am totally with you on this girl. don't give up on looking fabulous though -- if you wear make-up, keep wearing it. and dress nicely so people know that you're not just being a lazy fart. you don't have to prove that you're amazing with a boyfriend.
plus, while being single, you can flirt with any guy you want ;) and who wouldn't want that?! it's freedom and a lot less stress (e.g., worrying about a great birthday / anniversary gift, how to make him feel better ALL THE TIME, etc.)
you'll find the right guy when he comes. you're still young and come college, you'll be a different person with new priorities. i'm actually really proud of you that you're doing this for yourself. you're still an awesome young woman and there's always the opportunity to get a man in your life, so do not sweat it if you don't have / aren't interested in having a boyfriend now.
which guys like better short hair or long hair? plus bangs? I just cerous.
guys like long hair, always. i don't think it really matters if you you have bangs or not, as long as you look good :)
if you've given a hand job but haven't really been felt up...like puts his hands on me butt and like touches my stomach alot but never really felt me up...what base would that be?
if you gave a hand job, that's third base. all you did was skip 2nd base, that's all.
Where can you find a quiz that when you take it, it determines if the guy really likes you or not?

ANY of those, hahah. if you take a bunch and take into consideration all the answers you've gotten, that's probably what the answer is. :)
If you have put in a tampon before then when you have sex there shouldnt be anything to pop right? So it shouldnt hurt either ?
well when you insert a tampon, your hymen breaks, yes. so in that sense, it should not hurt when you have sex for the first time.
however, a penis is MUCH thicker and longer than a tampon, so it will hurt the first time you have sex. it's pretty much unavoidable. but the pain will be less than if your hymen breaks for the first time while you have sex.
How long does it take to get an. And. How long do they last?orgasm
it all depends on the person.
it can take some girls 2 minutes, others 25. there are different methods for female masturbation, so that would play a key factor as well.
again, depends on the female. some last a few seconds while others can last upto a minute. most girls' orgasms last a few seconds.
how do you think a girl should look?
& other things like do you like straight blonde hair? brown curly and scrunchedd?
prefer white girls or maybe hispanic girls?
jusstt wo0nderinqqq and open to ALL answerss :]
i think girls with brown / light brown hair, straight with layers and side bangs with moderately tan skin are so pretty! doesn't matter what color eyes. i have straight dark hair and dark eyes so idk why i like brunettes with straight hair. scrunched hair is really unattractive imo -- i like natural, curly hair better. scrunched hair makes hair look "crispy" almost. white / asian girls are really pretty.
my hair is naturally light blonde. in november i dyed the underneath DARK brown, almost black. but then prom was in may and i was trying to lighten it before then, so i went and got some of the color taken out [not stripped.. but, idk what they did, but it made it a lighter brown, like a medium shade]. that cost me $130 dollars! AHH! so since then its started fading and has turned a brownish/reddish/auburn ugly color that i hate. so i tried to dye over it at home a 'dark ash blonde'. it lightened it a little but not much. then it started fading into a brownish/reddish/orange color and looks bad. so i went to sallys and told the lady my situation and she said if i use a light blonde dye it would help get it back to a blonder color. i dyed it today. and its barely different. its lighter, but also more orangey. im so SICK of it! i want it fixed and just my natural hair back. [remember this is only the underlayers of my hair]. theres like 4 or 5 inches of the color, and then my roots have grown out since then, but i dont wanna cut it, because im trying to grow my hair out and that would send it up to like my ears! i dont have another $100+ dollars to go get it dyed at a salon because that is insane, and i dont wanna bleach it because thats SO bad for your hair. any suggestions here??
hey
i would say stop coloring it NOW! just let it grow out far enough so that you can trim it when the time comes. you're only wasting more and more money by coloring it, and it's making the color deeper. hair grows faster than you think, so in a couple months just see where you stand and either get a slight trim (which shouldn't cost a lot of money) OR get a full haircut. just leave it alone for a few months -- even if you think it looks horrible. if you keep coloring it, you'll NEVER get your natural hair back and it will only take longer
my boyfriend was feeling really down because he has a temporary depression. i prayed to God (i'm Christian) and asked if he could make my bf happy and i implied that i'd do anything just to see him happy, even give up my happiness for his. A week later he dumped me and i've never seen him happier. i'm hurt and i'm just wondering if you think it's the work of God or just a weird coincident.
personally, i only believe in coincidences the first time it happens and the second time, i think of it as a sign from a higher being.
in this case, however, i feel that it's a combination of both God's work and a coincidence.
you, in essence, did ask God to make your boyfriend happy, even if it meant him breaking up with you, which was -- in fact -- what unfortunately occurred, and i'm truly sorry for that.
however, it may have just been a coincidence that he had dumped you. he may be happy now, but his life isn't perfect without you in it, making it a coincidence.
i wouldn't overanalyze it though. have faith in God and remember that there is a reason why the people from your past didn't make it to your future.
do you wear underwear with girl boxers? i just wanted to know
yeah cause they're like shorts for us so if you sat indian style everyone would be able to see your vajj. plus, increase in the likelihood of infections. so def. wear underwear
Yeah, so like do you wash your face with water, towel, and hand soap?
Or like do you need a special kind of face washing cream or something?
Idk, lol. And sorry if this is under the wronge catagory.
nooo don't wash your face with handsoap silly! buy face scrub from like anywhere, literally. i like the orange burst facial cleanser but don't use handsoap! that stuff is a lot harder because your hands are rough but the skin on your face is soft
