Hey I'm runforit0803! I am a cross country/track runner as well as a dedicated art student. My friends are my life, they make me laugh a lot and I hope I do the same. I absolutely love learning history, it's my best subject. My favorite color is yellow. I've had my fair share of drama and I can proudly say I've learned from it. I have totally open mind, so don't hesitate to ask me anything. If I feel like I'm not able to answer you well, I will refer you to someone else. You matter more than having the honor of giving advice just to give it. Best wishes!

Okay, so I know there is literally no "easy" way to lose weight and I understand this.
However, I need to know. How is the easiest way to lose weight? When I say easy I mean in a lot of 'areas' e.g. when you don't have a lot of equipment (I don't even have stairs to do cardio on, but I do have a lot of steep hills around my area)
Also, how many times a week should I do the work out and for how long?
Once again I understand it's not easy to lose weight and if the easiest way is like, sit ups thats okay!! also, it's for mostly stomach fat which will be hard I understand, but a good leg and thigh work out would be good too. (link)

running is great and doesn't require buying equitment! try sit ups, crunches, push ups, stretching, and to work the lower abs lay down and bring your knees to your stomach...now move them away from your stomach and back towards it in that exact posistion without putting your legs on the ground.
i'm a cross country runner, not to lose weight but because i like it and i also do doggies [on all fours and two knees;lift your leg like a dog a few times on each side] and you can also face a wall; put your palms on it and lift your leg sideways up and down rapidly [but not too fast!] on each side. as some of these may be new or whatever start gentley and let your body rest if it feels tired.
i'd do these everyday or every other day! but give yourself a day off weekly. like every sunday for example.

OK, so I am young and all and I have started hooking up with highschool guys like every weekend and I flirt with everyone and I can't like help myself. I went to the movies and before I knew it i was giving this guy a blow job...who I had never met and I am in like a crisis right now cus I AM BEING A SLUT and I'm scared but the guys I have "hung out with" know i am a virgin and promised not to take it from me but I know I shouldn't trust highschool horndogs and I am afraid of being raped. How do I keep from being a 14 year old nymphomaniac!?!?!? (link)

try to find another way to take out your sexual desires. don't act on impulse sexually, think it through a lot and build up a strong concious descion of "NO". as for the boys, trust a bit but don't let your gaurd down. they're still horny high school boys and nothing will change that...well maybe graduating from highschool will. just put your guard up more anout imtimacy and try out some new hobbies to keep yourself too busy to be giving blow jobs. as for raging hormone stuff i think you should maybe hang with your female friends more and gush with them over hot guy celebrities while watching a movie or surfing the web for pics of them. it's gonna take mental strength but believe in yourself and don't give in! you don't want a reputation like today's troubled startlets!

I am 14/f and i really want some pretty bras and underwear. the pretty fancy kind. mine r just regular and plain. my friends all have pretty ones too and i would just be really happy if i could have some. i also have a boyfriend tho and i dont want them for him-im not taking him anywhere right now haha so i dont want my mom getting the wrong idea plus i just dont know how in the world to tell her. and i want ones like from Victoria's Secret but my mom might think it innapropriate and uneccesary for a 14 yr old girl to shop there. Anywhere else i could go? Sometimes i get cute ones from Kohl's but most of the time my mom gets some for me. I need a bigger cup anyway tho so we are probably going to go buy some. i just need to know what to say. thanx so much :] (link)

is that normal havin period like Nov 25 then dec 25? on 3 or 4 day period? (link)
|
yeah i think it is. you can your period at the end of the month, middle of the month, or beginning. it also can last anywhere from 1-like 5 or 7 days.
i sometimes get mine at the end, sometimes at the beginning, sometimes at the middle of the month. you sound totally fine. don't freak out. but if you still feel really unsure you can go to the doctor although i don't believe you have to.

hi
i have an art project. its about good vs. evil.
i have to draw objects that represent the good things in this world. the things that make you happy, execieted, and so on. then for the evil side i have to have bad corupt things. i have some things drawn for both sides but i need more.
good side, ice cream, books, fairys, presnts, choclate, music, rainbows, cake hearts, clouds, dove bird.
evil side, skulls, scary eyes, cigarettes, bombs, black bird.
thanks for you help and its ok if some things that you say arent so obvious like i think televison and money are corrupt in their own way.

i had an art project like this when i was a freshman in high school! here are some ideas:
good:
-love
-friendship
-hope
-open mindedness
-togetherness
-seeing that beauty is more than skin deep
-believing
-being united
bad:
-jealousy
-war
-the media
-society's pressure to be ultra skinny
-racism
-genocide
-stereotypes
-violence
it's all i can think of, if you don't like anything think about the evil and good in your life and incoperate that into your work. good luck!

15/f, 5'3-4, 110 lbs.
to start off, i know im not like obese or even that fat or anything, the number isnt what im worried about
i just hate when i put on a pair of jeans and my sides arent all the way in (love handles..sort of)
people tell me im rly skinny all the time and i always am working out (i go to the gym 3-4 times a week for about 2 hours each) and im always running at home with my dog
but whenever im like going out to the movies or somewhere with my friends, i hesitate to wear like just jeans and a fitted t shirt because you can sort of see how my hips are nasty looking, ive tried excersises to fix it but im not sure what to do
i wanna be able to wear a shirt where you can see some skin, but not be obsessively worrying about it throughout the day

your body isn't something you should be scared of. you're fifteen like me and i know we're all EXTREMELY self councious and it's hard not to be but listen when i tell you we are our own worst critics.
if you feel uncomfortable about how your clothes make you look, i'd analyze you're body type and make sure you're dressing to flatter it.
also, about showing skin, i get a little nervous about that too although people tell i'm really skinny and perfect for that but i just force myself to do it. hey we only live once right? but once i get myself to do it, at the end of the day i'm glad i did. you just have to not let that negative thinking control your life. basically because nobody's body is perfect don't expect it to be, we're not dolls. however as corny as this sounds, find what you like about your body.
if you still ever feel nervous or something about this kinda stuff, you can talk to me. believe me i know how you feel. i use to be really insecure about showing skin and stuff but i look back at it and laugh because i know now i was being foolish. just ignore that fear, show off some skin, and you'll be fine!

Well to start off i'm 17/M and my girlfriend is 16/F
About 6 months ago we met online and we liked each other from the start. Around four months later we figured out a way to meet..Which was really hard because I live in Virginia and she lives in Connecticut. So we met at a hockey game for her birthday..Well we really loved each other in person so we decided to go out and figure out a way to make this work for us. Around a month later, during Christmas break, my dad let me take a train to CT to spend a few days with her. Her family liked me and we had the best time ever. The problem is..I had hopes of going to college in CT so I could be closer to her and the distance would no longer be a problem. Well my dad says he wants me to go to a community college down here for a year or two then transfer to a 4-year college, and he said that is the only way he would help me pay for it. Well I would do anything to be closer to her and go to college in CT which is a real good school for what i want to do anyway (Forensic Science) but my dad said i would have to pay for room-and-board, the out of state tuition, and food, and all the other expenses i would have. I'm not sure how i would be able to do all that on my own..but i would do anything for this girl because i love her so much. And she says she doesn't think she would be able to handle a long distance relationship for another year. Please help me..I don't know what to do and i can't lose her, we're so perfect together and I've never loved anyone like i love her.

i think you should really explain to her how much you love her and that nobody makes you feel as good as she does.....
considering you're 17 i wouldn't rush out onto CT. you're pretty young. stick to your dad's plan but you have to explain to her that as much as you love her, it would be such an fiancial strain on you and that although one more year apart from her hurts you like words can never tell, this is something you have to do so you can be with her. it's best to avoid going to debt as much as you can. fiancial stress would also do damage to your relationship. tell your girlfriend that it's tearing you apart but this is the best you can do and that no matter where you are in the world your passion for her shouldn't be pushed aside because it's a little harder. yes it will be hard, but what you have together is so worth it. explain to her that and don't leave an ounce of emotion out of it.
hopefully she'll understand and agree that you both will need to work extra hard to be together miles apart. i think if she loves you like she says she does, she will totally get it and go with it and if not i'm so sorry but it's not gonna be the end of the world.
best of luck!!!!

what does getting your ears pierced feel like?
(link)

It's really quick and depending on the quality of the place you're getting it done at...it shouldn't hurt. I reccomend getting it done with a gun and when you get it don't forget to twist them three times a day for a while!

I feel like a total failure. Although I have a lot to be proud of, there is so much that I have yet to do...
I'm 23 and feel like most other people my age are at least doing something with their lives, whether it's going to grad school, starting a job, etc. I don't expect to have "made it" by now (whatever it means) career-wise or anything, but I seriously did not think that I would be where I am today.
To be clear, I already graduated college, thinking that I'd go into grad school or something... the whole process seems to be in the air, I don't have a steady job (aside from helping at my mom's office once in a while), I wake up and go to the library occasionally, only to come back with a head full of doubts.
I understand that I am still young, but seriously, I am doing pretty much nothing with my life and I feel like complete crap at the moment. I guess in a way I already know what to do, but it doesn't make the situation any easier. I still feel like a low life failure. I don't know...any words of advice are appreciated. (link)

You sort of sound like my sister who is about your age. R-E-L-A-X. The people who I know are in their early twenties and "doing something with their lives" don't have it all. They have their parents pay for their Manhatten apartments. You're not a failure, you just haven't found your opening yet and that's okay. Take a breather, you have a long life ahead of you. There's still time to figure this stuff out. A good portion of people have had to do jobs like working at restaurant and that stuff. Orlando Bloom use to work...oh I forget what but I think it was picking up stuff off the ground at some club. However, my point is you can go anywhere your heart leads you. Just trust that you're gonna end up somewhere and there's no timer on how you get there.

anyone know somewhere that can help me with ap world history. anyone know where i can find a big timeline for everything covered in ap world history? (link)
|
If you need help with AP world history I suggest trying to find a Barron's book on it [they normally have good stuff for other subjects]. You might also want to ask a friend, if they have any experiance, to help you with this. If neither works out try stopping by extra help after school to ask your teacher what the best way to prep for it is.
Make sure to make flashcards and higlight notes. Don't be afraid to ask questions. Making an outline of the most important information in each topic helps.
Hope I helped! Good luck!
