I joined this site because I like to help people. My advice may not be the best, or may not be what you want to hear, but I'll try my best to help you out. :)

hey..well, my friend and i are both 15/f. and we have an a.p euro class together. well, there we take notes. the teachers lectures us. and my friend was absent last week for one day. i took about like 45 pages of notes that day. not even kidding. and now she's asking me to scan them and give them to her. should I? I really don't want to. I know she's my friend and all. But I consider this course a strict "only study yourself" course. like, don't help people out, or you're gonna get stuck yourself. I don't know what to do. I would like to help a friend. But scanning 45 pages of the notes that *I* worked so hard on, listening to him and gathering info on. And letting her HAVE it without any effort on her part...well that's not very fair. And plus, when I used to ask her for help, she rarely helped me.
What would you do? :|
I wouldn‘t give a friend homework answers or test answers but sharing notes seems like a different situation to me. After all they still have to do the work to retain the information given in the notes. The issue that I see here is that it takes a lot of time to scan 45 pages. If you don’t have time for that I’d tell your friend that they are more than welcome to come over and copy the notes, or that they can copy them during lunch the next day. If the scanning is not what bothers you and you are feeling that giving notes is not right I would just explain this to your friend as gently as possible.
i am 14 and i havent started my period yet i thnik its because i am to big. but i was just wondering can u get pregant even though you have not started your
period
If you are sexually active then yes it is possible to get pregnant.
I was wondering anybody know a site.. or books on like stuff deal with working with kids and all. I have exprineces but only with family memeber becouse they my cousins i know it different working with kids who they don't know you or not a related or anything. i know kinda the same but alot different..
I work with kids for a living. I think a lot of the how to you simply have to gain from experience. There is no book that can teach you everything you need to know to work in childcare. My biggest tips are:
Don't be alone with one child at any time. Always make sure you either have a second adult or a second child with you. In today's society if a child accuses you of something you are guilty until proven innocent.
Along the same lines as the above is don't do anything with the kids that mom, dad, grandpa or grandma might be uncomfortable with if they saw it. This includes sitting on laps, overlong hugs, etc.
Also at the preschool stage they will try and make you their friend and play the cuteness card (for example getting up and trying to hang all over you while they should be sitting for an activity). If you are there as a volunteer to help their teacher make sure the kids know that while you care for them you are a teacher and keep them from crossing that teacher/student line.
If you have any questions on how to deal with specific issues feel free to ask anytime! Good luck.

I can't do this anymore. I go to a boarding school and I can't sleep at all at night because my roommate goes to bed at 1 am and her alarm goes off at 6 am. And she keeps walking in and out all throughout the night. It's annoying as hell.
Plus people are yelling and screaming in the hallways.
WHAT CAN I DO TO GET SOME FREAKING SLEEP?
please don't say "just talk to your roommate".
thanx.
Is there a way to put in for a room change? If not then I suggest ear plugs. I use them myself as I used to be woken up often due to noise. I use this brand:
http://www.walgreens.com/store/product.jsp?CATID=100217&navAction=jump&navCount=0&id=prod1499680
And they work great. In fact when I first started using them I slept through my alarm and had to start using a louder one. lol

I have really low self esteem. I care about everything and I don't deal with drama good. I seem to like running away from my problems and I show when I care which is bad I know. I don't know how to not give about everything not important I don't know how to not care I don't know how to let everything just blow by and I don't know how to stop stressing and worrying. I've gotten picked on because of my low self esteem people seem to know when I care so they seem to pick on me a lot more can anyone show me how to have more self esteem and how to just not care about what everyone thinks?
I had the exact same problem when I was your age. The way I found to deal with my low self esteem was to fake confidence and pretty soon I wasn't faking it any more. I understand that that is hard to do when you're in the high school years though. I can tell you that it does get better though, hang in there!
hi. im 17 and im tiny, im 5 feet an only 91 pounds but im doing well. the baby is fine...
im 15 weeks pregnant. and i could swear i felt the baby kick last night and the night before. its a different type of feeling than ive ever had before. it was like, something poked up against me inside.. like a ghost put a few nuckles through me an nudged me. it was weird. since ive never experianced it before i gasped and was like "whoaa". i dont beleive its gas at all, because for that ive had totally different feelings, nothing like this. some things say its too early, but for my size, would i actually b feeling my baby? sorry its so long, but i would LOVe some responses.. thank you.
Yes it is possible. That must have been exciting! Here's a site that talks more about this.

Hi I know this is the wrong category, and I am sorry. I just didn't know what to put it under.
I have a digital camera.. [a Nikon coolpix p2]
I was just wondering if there is any way of getting a picture onto you memory card from just your camera hard drive or whatever without using the cord because I lost it but I need the pictures onto my camera
I don't know of a way to transfer the pictures to your computer without a cord but the cords themselves are fairly inexpensive. Here's one for $9.99.

You can also bring the memory card from your camera to a photo machine (most Wal-Mart’s, Walgreens, CVS, etc. have them) and print out the pictures or have them put onto a CD. Hope that helps.
i had sex for the first time in 18months about a week ago. with a guy i met at a bar it was a one night stand thing and we used the pull out method 2 times in a row its been a week and my boobs are tender when i found out i was pg with my daughter it was 2 weeks after i had sex and my boobs very very full and i couldnt even touch them... do you think i can be pregnet??? i dont go to the bathroom right after words i think i did the second time and he did the second time to.... i doont no what to think... or do....
The withdrawal method has a high failure rate as pre-ejaculatory fluid can contain traces of sperm. It is likely you could be pregnant. I recommend taking a pregnancy test and in the future please respect yourself enough to use a condom. You aren’t just risking pregnancy by not using protection you are risking a sexually transmitted disease and you are worth more than that.

I need to lose 30-40 pounds. My school has a gym- and it has treadmills, ellipticals, and a stationery bike + free weights and stuff.
What should I do in that gym to help me lose weight?
The treadmills, elliptical and bike are good for cardio which helps burn fat. Weights are also a good idea as the more muscle mass you have the more calories you burn. I would recommend combining the two but be sure not to over do it. When I worked out with a trainer I started at 15 minutes of cardio and 10 of weights and worked up to doing 45 minutes of cardio and 15 of weights.

Summer is coming soon. You could approach your parents about going away to a camp, even if it's just for a week. It may not be exactly what you're looking for but it will give you a chance to get out of town and see a little more of the world. It might help with the restless feelings you've been experiencing.
16/F, I was talking to the guy that I liked and he started laughing at me when he found out that I don't drink and I've never had a boyfriend. He invited me to his party but I turned his invitation down cause I just didn't feel comfortable with the drinking, snobby ppl from my school and everything else . I felt that I really made a bad impression and just because I've never had a boyfriend and I don't drink alcohol, does this make me seem bad? and was it okay that I said no to him?
I think it's absolutely okay that you said no to him. Be proud of yourself for sticking to your values and not changing yourself for someone like that.
does anyone have a clue what the heckk a Roman mock sea battle is???
I already googled it and everything but couldn't find what it actually IS.
anyone know??....anyone
I googled it as well. Here's one passage I found about it.
"Perhaps the most interesting of all events held was the mock sea battles. The Romans were famous for running water in their architecture, and this allowed them to flood the battle field and hold mock sea battles."

For more information I'd recommend trying google again. I searched Roman mock sea battle and it brought up many links.
i'm rele freaked out by this one techer cuz he always is like makin fun of kids in a funny way, but it's not funny...so yea. And well, he is rele loud and strict and likes to yell at u b/ he thinks it's funny and cool. I was absent friday and needa make up a test, and i kno when i go to him tues. (when we get bac from school) afternoon...he'll try to be cool in front of his class and yell at me for being absent and try to make a fool outta me until my face turns red. What should I do so I can handle this with out being embaress and having my face turn red.
There is no reason for a teacher to humiliate his students in front of the class. If he makes you uncomfortable go and speak to a guidance counselor about his behavior. You can ask them how to make an anonymous report on his behavior.
Im sick and I really need to throw up. Somehow I just cant. I know I have to because I can feel it but I dont know why I cant. My mom says I will throw up but is there anything that I can drink that will make me throw up. I dont want to put my finger down my throat tho and please dont say I shouldnt. If I do I will feel a lot better. Thanks!
Once when I was really ill and couldn't throw up I drank a spoonful of cough syrup(which I hate). It was enough to cause me to throw up.
i am a 13/f. i need indepandance. i want to be able to go places. to peirce my belly button. to go to rated r movies. not to have to sneak out to see my boyfreind. dye my hair purple. own a housekey.
i cut my hair, and it looks okay, but my mom didnt see it yet. i am so grounded tommorow. i have like no freedom in my house. my mom reads my emails and my books! she doesnt let me go to peoples houses unless she knows them. doesn't want me to pluck my eyebrows like i do. sh wants me to let them be natural!?:/ doesnt want me to have a bf. (she would flip if she knew the truth)my mom is like a watchdog. i gotta do something. talking to her or my dad doesnt work. my mom is in charge of the family, and in my face. what should i do to gain her trust and rights that a teenager should have?
-thanks
-xoxo olga
If you want your mother to trust you and give you more freedom you need to show her you're trustworthy. Take it one step at a time. Don't ask her to let you dye your hair and pierce your belly button in the same day. First, build the trust up, help around the house, get good grades, be respectful and then approach her. And stop hiding things from her. You say that she would flip if she knew the truth and then you ask how to gain her trust? Hiding things from her is not a way to gain trust and respect. At the moment it doesn't sound like your in a position to be trusted. You're hiding things from her and doing stuff behind her back, I can't say that I blame her for keeping such a close eye on you. Trust needs to be earned, not demanded.
ive recently been coughthing up blood and ive also had a high temperature and sometimes find it hard to breath occasionally it comes and goes what could it be? My mom and dad are alcoholics so they are never really at home i have told my mom thoe and she ses it will pass is that true.
You need to get to a doctor. Your parents refusing you medical help is neglect. If they won't take you talk to another adult, a teacher a school nurse, and ask them for help.
ok well i have been going out with my boyfriend for about 9 months now and i really love him. he has only had sex with one girl. but many times. they broke up long be fore we got together. so just say i lost my virginity to him do you think he would have any kind of std from having sex with just that ONE other girl.?? like do u think theres a chance of him having an STD, from that one girl and then having sex with me and then all of a sudden i get it??? thanks i rate HIGHHH
There is absolutely a chance! If that girl had sex with anyone before she had sex with him she could have contracted a STD and passed it to him, or if she had a STD passed down at birth such as HIV she could have passed it to him. Always use protection.
my name is *Cassy*
I like this one boy that sits acrossed from me in class and every day we look into each others eyes for like 10 minutes and he always has a satisfied look on his face, can you tell me some ways to see if he likes me????? I RATE HIGH!!! please give me some advice...:-(
Think about this, if he doesn't like you enough to tell you or to ask you out, is he worth your time? If the answer is yes, ask him out. If it's no, then try being friends and maybe after he gets to know you better he'll ask you out.
There's this guy @ my school.. he asked me out a while ago and I rejected him.. but now I like him a lot, and everyone says he likes me too. Being shy, and a girl, I don't wanna ask him out. How do I hint around to get HIM to ask ME out? I already flirt with him. Anything else I can do/say? BTW, i need help FAST, cuz tomorrow is the last day of school. Thank u!!!!!1
This is kind of asking him out without actually asking him out. You can say something like "You know, if you asked me out again I wouldn't say no."
