what do i do if i by all the clothing i think is really cool...but when i were 'em at school they dont look so cool..... (link)
Looking cool is perception. If you don't think you look cool, other people wont think you look cool, but if you THINK you do, then you will look cool.


Okay, there are a couple of guys that I like, and I've never had a boyfriend before (I'm a junior in high school). I keep getting hints from other people that they like me, but I just don't have any clue whether or not they like me, and I really am getting tired of trying to listen to people who have no clue what they're talking about when they say that someone likes me. Any suggestions on how I can figure it out for myself without asking them straight out or asking their friends or mine?

I have no good advice at all. Actually, I usually wondered around wonder if they liked me, tried to do things to make a guy like, failed miserably, and then was surprised by someone else completely. Worked okay for me.


Will I survive the hebrew school sleepover this weekend? (link)
bring a bible.

Sorry had to say it. Of course you'll survive! Well, as long as you DON'T bring a bible that is.


there is this guy who just asked me to homecoming. i dont really like him so i said that i would think about it, and fortunately for me a guy i like asked me and i said yes, now i dont know how to tell him that i am going with someone else because he was really expecting to go with me. how should i tell him i am going with someone else?b (link)
You're just going to have to tell him. It'll be less heartache the sooner you do it for both of you, and then hopefully he'll have a chance to find another date before the dance.


How do I make myself look more attractive to potential employers? (link)
The obvious answer to this if you are female is to wear revealing clothes, however, I don't actually agree with this. Seriously, your resume is probably the most important thing you have to sell yourself. You can't even get INTO an interview without getting past the resume or application process. So my advice is, spend a lot of time thinking out each section, what you want it to say, and then proofread it. Once you're sure there is nothing else you could say to sell yourself better, have a couple of OTHER people look at it and make sure they hear the same things you are trying to get across in it. If they do, you've been successful. If like me, they think it sounds hokey (and really good friends will be honest about this), then keep trying until it says to others what you want it too. Once you actually have the interview, be talkative, but not annoying. Seem confidant. And most importantly, be polite, and thank the person who conducted the interview for their time, you want to make a good final impression.
