this isn't like an urgent question or anything but can anyone (sophmores,upperclassmen, younger siblings,college attendies, anyone)give me more info on freshmanizing? (link)
|
I'm a sophmore this year, so it's fresh in my mind what being a freshman was like.
It was just like every other year. I went in on the first day so scared. I was like "O my gosh, all the upperclassmen are going to shove me around and stuff me in the trashcan!"
I went in, the kids kind of looked at me like "Uhg, another freshman..." and "Grr! Imma gon eat you ya little wus!"
but never actually said that or did that. :)
they just give you a hard time to toughen you up. To show you they won't actually hurt you. Even some of the teachers are like "Ey! YOU! YEAH THE FRESHMAN!" I got to be good friends with a lot of the upperclassmen too. Just go in with a positive attitude, ready to make friends and the next 4 years will be good for you.

well, I don't think you're a John Edwards or anything. Though the money could be good if you are. :)
Supposidly when you're young, kids, toddlers, and babies are very receptive to seeing ghosts since they don't really know of them, and adults tend to ignore what they don't believe. I'm not exactly sure why it was a clown, but you never know what happens in the spirt world. Or being young, you could have seen something that did scare you, and your mind made it something that you weren't afraid of, so now you remember it as a clown instead of some scary creepy old decapitating old man with an axe(aha).
I've seen pleanty of apperitions in my life. boys outside of my window staring at me then disappearing, doors slamming shut, TVs turning on and off, bed shifting, even my camera has malfunctioned when I've gone to haunted hotels.
There's nothing wrong with you, you're just having 'interactions' with the afterlife

I have a biology test tomorrow. So much information will be covered on it. When you study, are you supposed to memorize everything, or are you just supposed to review notes until you're familiar with everything? (link)
|
Well if you're really stumped and don't know anything on the review, try memorizig what seems important. Ex- The stuff that you can relate other things to.Like if you can remember what makes up RNA, all you have to remember is one thing is different in DNA.
Make notes/map. You tend to remember things when you write them.
I used to struggle a ton in Biology, and I ended the year getting a 100. You just have to be devouted to doing good. Paying attention when the teacher is teaching and doing handouts is important to doing well on a test.
Hope this helps for later

Ohk. Last month i got my first period. So i really dont know. Please gimmie tips :)
Also, Its arround that time again this month (I got it on june 24th)
I heard that they are always late on the first time. but im getting horrible cramps. is it possible to get it regular??
ILL RATE!!
Thank you. (link)
|
Of course, or else you and me both have some serious problems we need to sort out :). Most people's are all jacked up for a year or two before they get regular. Like they come twice a month, or they don't come for months, but then there are those lucky girls who don't have to hassle with that.
Basically don't worry yourself, actually... you can totally relax. If you are regular, that is a load of worry off your back in the future.

I've had headaches for the past couple of days i'll have one in the morning..take some advil..and then before i go to bed i'll get another one *sometimes* and it worries me. Is this a symptom of high blood pressure? They arent severe or anything like that..they are just headaches..Thanks (link)
|
See a doctor. I get severe migranes and last year I had a headache that literally lasted months with no relief no matter what I took.
One thing is to eat better food. Not necissarily fruits and veggies. Just food that doesn't have preservitives and all those additives.
MSG (monosodium glutamate) is added in tons of foods and for some people (like me) can have reactions to a lot of it like headaches and migranes.
If diet and excercise doesn't make them stop, see a doctor. They can probably tell why you get your headache. They might give you medicine or a preventative.
Sounds like a lot of crazy nothing, I'm just giving you a tip of what it could be if your headaches continue.

i saw that you knew what it was when u whore someone on myspace so i was wondering if u could tell me the link or something that could help me do it to my friend! (link)

Sorry I didn't reply for awhile
First you can just make a plain bulletin with pictures and links

My girl friend, Trish, is so beautiful and I love her so much.
The problem is people say that she is ugly, & I don't think that at all.
I was just wondering if I could get all of your honest opinions. Do ya'll think she is ugly?
http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c54/TriciaxxxAnn/newhair.jpg
I'll rate 5s for all answers. (link)
|
I really do think she is beautiful.
Nowhere near ugly at all. I've learned that when people call pretty people ugly, they're jealous of either you, or her.
she's your girlfriend so be proud no matter what. You think she's beautiful, that's all that matters.

Today in health we watched "the cycle of life" or something, about babies being born. Well ..I know how they are and stuff, but in this video they showed EVERYTHING, like and, I think I'm scarred, I always wanted to have kids before this, but now I'm thinking I dont want to, since it grossed me out so much, and my health teacher said it hurts a lot. And from what I saw, ew.. and blah.
Do you think I will change my mind later in life? Because I want kids, but blah it seems gross..I'm young, so I will most likely change my mind about kids later right? (link)
|
If you want to have kids later in life, that'll be more important that the pain of birth.
The birth pains last the labor, kids are forever. Also, a lot of the time now the doctors give tons of painkillers to the mom so it won't be as bad.
It's human nature, it's not some alienlike function.
to your reply, medicines and drugs during developement of the baby inside the body can cause damage, not the painkillers to the mother during labor.
And Cesarean Sections are only option when the baby or mother will most likely die or be born with defict if born naturally. They're actually safer if they're preformed for the correct reasons.
Intercourse is more gross than childbirth, but people aren't afraid of it as much as labor.

okay yes so me & my boyfriend kind of had sex yesterday... he put it in like half way yesterday & pulled it out because i was scared yaeh well i still bled. does that mean he popped it? but it was only in half way..yeah im hoping im stilll a virgin pleasee help me!!!! comment bac qickk! (link)
|
Even if your 'cherry didn't pop' that doesn't not make you a virgin. If the hymen being intact is what made you a virgin, many actual virgins wouldn't be consitered virgins just because their hymen broke while horsebackriding, pole, or masturbating. Some people's hymen don't break even after they've had sex.
to put it simple
penis in vagina = bye bye virginity
you don't have to orgasm, or your cherry doesn't have to actually pop.

What does it mean to Whore somebody on MySpace? And what do the Whore Rounds ( I saw it on a bulliten ) mean? (link)
|
When you whore someone on myspace, it when you post a bulletin like "ADD BILLIE- HE COMMMENTS BACK!!!" to get more people to add that person to their friends list.
Whore Rounds are just a thing that you can add your name and URL to so there are tons of people being whored per post.

I have a question...I think I'm slightly bi-polar. Because I go through the day wiht emotions allll over the place. 2 classes, for example, I'll be sitting there just dozing off tired and not happy...the next class ill find something randomly hilarious. the next class ill be depressed about myself, adn by the end of the day im laughing agian. its really weird. its not serious, but its been like this for so long and i hate being depressed and not happy. half the time i dont even know why im so sad......please help? any suggestions? (link)
|
Like the others said, you can't diagnose yourself, only a doctor and a councelor can do that.
But I know exactly what you're talking about. My doctor diagnosed me with depression even though I don't know why I'm depressed and has been thinking I'm bi-polar. She sent me to a councelor to see, but inside I couldn't stand going and I had mental breakdowns.
At school I do the same thing. I'll be talkitive and social, but the next class I sulking and not talking to anyone.
Bipolar disorder has two extremes. Some people experience only the maniac side, some only the depressive state, and some both. Bipolar is very extreme though. There is Hypomania which is less extreme symptoms of bipolar disorder.
The mania phase has - restlessness, racing thoughts, inflated self-esteem, sleeplessness, increased energy.
The depression state has- low mood, sadness, feelings of guilt and worthlessness, changes in appetite or weight, fatigue, withdrawl from others.
Again, to get yourself back to normal, you need to go see your doctor or a councelor and tell her how you're feeling. They'll diagnose you and help you.

Okay a while ago i was a cutter and i did cut myself for a while but now i stopped that bye myself and with the help of friends.... but i mean i have changed wheni wasa cutter and im ver emotional now and im not into rap anymore and my friends think ive changed... some people even steryotype me as "emo" i mean idk what to do like i dont like the person i am become but yet i do
Do u need to go to counseling to help me with the stress im going through??OR am i okay with what i am now
Please help (link)
|
I think you're the only one who can say if you're okay with what you are, but counseling can help you if you are going through a lot of stress.
Listening to new music doesn't change you. You change because something happneded, consiously or unconsiously, and your tastes change. You can't let your friends make you feel bad about who you are, but if you REALLY aren't happy with who you're becoming, that is something you would want to try and change.
But don't let friends guilt you to change back. If this is really who you're becoming, and you really do like who you're becoming, don't let guilt you to change back. That can just add to stress.

okay so i'm (hopefully!!!) going to a teddy geiger concert on thursday & i'm completely stupid when it comes to fashion & i have no idea what to wear. keep in mind the place is downtown & kind of creepy, so i don't want to be too revealing & i'm pretty fat... haha. i want to wear something cute, but not something that's going to make me more self conscious than i am.
help? (link)
|
Just wear something you'll normally wear and you're comfortable in. Concerts can get really hot even if you're in seats. When I go to concerts I just wear blue jeans, and a t-shirt. Nothing special. Just be comfortable, cause you stand a lot (even if you're in seats, again) no one is going to judge you.

This whole thing is probably going to sound really werid and its going to be long but here goes:
It's my last year in this school I've been at for 3 years, but it feels like forever. It has so many memories, from the good like meeting my best friend to the bad like dealing with her boyfriend's near death experience. (literally) Well, this year has been going by so fast and its been so much fun. You know when it feels like you and your friends rule the school (hopefully you dont act like it)and you can walk around like you don't care. Your friends are crazy and its just perfect. I don't want to leave.
Well, I have a feeling things are going to change in high school. All my friends are so different that there is no way we are all going to see each other all the time like we do now. For example, in school I take all honors and my best friend doesn't take any. After school, I'm busy with track and horseback riding and she has swim practice. Also, I'm afraid of having to make new friends.
So I guess my two questions are how do I stay friends with my current friends and how do I make new friends in my classes? (link)
|
To stay friends- just continue to hang out as much as you can. Go to the mall on weekend or whatever you used to do. If you have the same lunch, sit together and talk in the hallways. Just try.
To make new friends- it comes surprisingly easy. You just have to be yourself, but don't be shy. If someone talks to you, don't try to end the conversation fast, talk back. Don't be afraid to say hi to people. Smile when you're walking through the hallways. It's in the little things you do that people will say 'Hmm, she seems nice.'
I'm just ending my freshman year right now, so I know exactly what you mean. You'll actually find out who your true friends are, the ones who will stick with you, and try to stay friends with you.

Hey. Well, I'm like 5'6 to 5'7, and I'm 14/f African American (if that helps) and about to enter the 9th grade as a freshman in August. Anyways, I was just wondering if you guys thought that I was tall for my age, average height, etc. Also, can you guys tell me if long legs look good in mini skirts. Thanks.
P.S.-I have like a couple scabs on my legs and I'm brown skin and the scabs are like a dark brownish color, so I was wondering if that would look good in a mini skirt as well, and also whatI can do to clear it up quickly. Thanks again, and sorry for all the questions. (link)
|
I'm 15, 5'6 to 5'7 also, and I haven't grown much since last year, and compared to most people I was just like 1/4 of an inch taller than them.
Now I'm like the same height as most people.

My 5 month dog is trying to mount my 3 year old daughter, which is not exceptable. Should I neuter him now? I do believe it is more than just being a puppy. He is in the bully breed and I am very concerned about him knowing his place in our klan, and manners. (link)
|
Yes you should. I got my puppy neutered when he was 5-6 months old. You should do it before his testosterone level is higher. It doesn't mean you can't do it later, but it's also easier on the dog if you neuter him as a puppy. He isn't raging with hormones, becoming aggresive, and they're actually easier to train.
From my experiences with male and female dogs (sadly is many)who have been fixed, and not. The fixed dogs are much more affectionate and caring. They're just a dog with no added hormones to tip their moods or actions.

ok well i have aim triton and i have made my profile and everything but no one can see it, so does anyone no if i have to like turn something on/off so people will b able to view it?
thanx (link)

Triton is really screwy. The person you are talking to has to the same version of AIM that you have.
I recomend going to AIM.com and downloading the older version you had. You can actually do a lot more with the older versions than you can with Trition. It slowed my computer down and made some programs error.

im 15/f and me and my best guy friend went to a party n both got a little drunk among other things. anyway we ended up having sex and since then i've found out im pregnant and i know its his and i told him about it. hes basically demanding i keep it but see i dont want to b/c its going to destroy my body, reputation,i know i wont be able to keep my gpa above a 4.0, and my mom will kill me. so should i just go behind his back or what?
(link)
|
For me, I say keep the baby and deal with the consequences of your actions. You decided to drink and do whatever those 'among other things' are. You should know at 15 that they impair your ability to think striaght. I know you've heard stories of people getting drunk and having one night stands. You and him did this. It's not like it was unavoidable. Sure your mom will be disapointed in you, but why wouldn't she?
I also think that you should be happy you have a friend that would demand you keep the baby. He cares.
yes, pregnancy gets you fat, but it's nothing that you can't work off.
To me it seems since you are already pregnant, getting an abortion and going back to school acting fine, seems like a lie about your reputation. You can still be yourself if your pregnant, you can still work hard to get good grades in school.
I've heard of many people who get abortions later regret it and think about if they had kept the baby. They wish they could have chosen differently.
It doesn't mean you have to raise the kid. If you can't and no one in your family can, you can put it up for adoption. Just don't kill the baby.

Hey has anyone got any techniques to make eyes look more oval and upward slanting (oes it make any difference if you put it over the top lashes? if so I need insructions lol), and also to suggest eyeliners that stay on throughtout half the day at least.
ty luv rach xxx (link)
|
I rarely wear makeup so I'm not sure about suggesting eyeliner, but when I do I only really wear it to the sides. Make sure you don't outline the whole bottom lashline. Just start about in the middle or 1/4 into your lash from the inside and blend it to the outside of your eye. Also I think if the eyeliner is thinker on the sides than on the bottom, it will help make your eyes more oval. I also don't put as much on my upper lash either. If you want your eyes to look like their kind of pointed up instead of down, just put some of the eyeliner in wear your lids meet like you're going to do a cat's eye, but not drastic at all. http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a269/GHSisinmySNtoo/eyesssss.jpg
maybe like that, but probably less drastic/thinner since I don't think you are going for a 'darkpromnight' look.
