15.f -- sophomore in high school to be.
last year, i spent way too much time on homework & studying. i didn't have any lack of understanding because i mostly got As, but i really want to speed it up this year.
last year, most days, i would do my homework & studying during lunch at the library for 40 minutes, but i still had 2-3 hours of homework a night. my teachers did not give too much homework, but i was just really slow in getting it all done because i wanted to do other things and some of the homework was hard for me.
here are all of the classes that i am taking.
AP US history
english H (my teacher likes poetry)
french III H
algebra II H
driver's ed
accounting
law
biology
please do not tell me to "google it" because i DID google it. i want YOUR opinions. ONLY GIVE LINKS if you point out what is important.
(1) can someone give me some tips on how to complete my homework faster without doing it all wrong?
please note: i will try to concentrate during class and while i complete my homework, and we're not allowed to do homework during class. only during lunch, which i will do anyway, and on the bus i can study.
(2) does anyone have any SPECIFIC tips on how to do do my homework & studying faster for any of my classes? if you've had one of those classes, what did you have to do?
i am almost half and half visual and auditory learner, but more so visual. so i do love flashcards and tables and charts. i have raided the internet of all "study tips" etc. and i do them all. i'm not stupid by any stretch of imagination, but school was legitimately my LIFE last year, and i really don't want that to happen again. as i said before, i did not have any lack of understanding so i do not need to go to extra help unless i really am having trouble. i just want to speed myself up. i have read about speed-reading and blocking out time tables in your schedule, but
(3) what else can i do?
(4) does anyone have any SPECIFIC tips on doing homework and studying (i know about not watching tv or turning on your computer or answering texts/calls) that not many people know about, or that are really effective?
thank you so much. (link)

So I like the hair selena gomez has at the wall e premiere.Im going to have my haircut that way the day of my school pic. Im nervous i wont look good in it though.Is there a way to know if it looks good on you or not?I really like the hair..... (link)
| |
well it depends on your head shape. So go on the internet and research a little more about that. Then search hairstyles that look good with your head shape.

well, teenagers are bound to have issues. whether its with suicide, drugs, alcohol, or family. and my friends have a lot of problems. as well as me.
my friends give me great advice on my issues, but the probelm with me? i SUCK at giving good advice. earlier, one of my friends was about to kill himself because he was about to be shipped off to boot camp. i tried to tell him it was gonna be fine, but of course i dont know that!!
i am really bad at making people feel better, i just make them feel worse. and then i feel worse. how am i supposed to make them feel better? i want to be a good friend, but everything i try is just useless, cliches on how to focus on the positives. we're teenagers. no one focuses on the positives until they reach midlife.
what do i do?? (link)
| |
well, obviously when i'm giving advice i can sit infront of my computer as long as i want to think about my answer. well i know this is not the best advice on this but i guess for me people tell me i give good advice.But, you just have to be there for because he needs you right now.

First off, what would be your definition of "fake"? People use that word in so many different ways, that I don't understand what it is anymore.
Anyways,..
This past year, I have lost many of my so called "best friends" over things that I did not do. Lately, people keep screwing me over like crazy. My friends would do the stupidest things and it just makes me think twice, how many chances should I give these people after all of the things that they did to me.
I have major trust issues and it's so hard for me to let go .. but I honestly don't know what to do. I stand up for myself at all times and I feel like I'm too nice sometimes.
I'm emotionally drained from being hurt and I don't know how to take it.
Are second chances always good, even third? Can some people ever change after being so "fake" towards me.
I just need any advice. Thank you. (link)

your living my life. every word you wrote is how i feel too. My boyfriend cheated on me. My so call "friend" stole my skittles,lip gloss,and phone and made out with my boy friend.my best friend used to do was insult me.I could go on.When your friends lie,cheat,steal,get drunk, get high, or hurt you they shouldn't have a second chance. I'm not saying don't forgive them. Just forgive and forget them. Until, you find someone who treats you right. Haven't you heard fool me once same on you, fool me twice same on me.

how can u tell if ur a good kisser or not...i havent had my first kiss and i wanna make sure....i dont wanna go up to him and ask if im a good kisser.....any other ways? (link)
| |
ya same here well i heard if you can tie a cherry stem in your mouth your a good kisser. i also heard if you can unrap a starburst or now and later in your mouth your a good kisser. if you can't do either i heard that kissing on the back of your hand is good practice.
|
Right, so..
I have a friend, lets call her... Sam.
She was inviting people to go and stay at a theme park for a few days. She invited nearly all of her friends, but left me out. I can't just ask if I can go, because I dont want to sound cheeky. But, I don't mean this to sound selfish. If I had gone to a theme park or somewhere to stay, I would've took her. Actually, I have took her to a awards show once.
I feel really sad.
What should I do/say?
(link)
| |
maybe she could only invite a certain amount of people i've had that happen to me before. Just go up to her and say i heard you invited some friends to a theme park i was just wondering why she didn't you invite you?
|
Whats the theme song...
I know it goes...
Falling in love, is such an easy thing to do.
Guys can do it girls can do it, lets stop talking lets get to it, lets fall inlove.
Thanks in advance (link)

i know this has nothing to do with your question but don't you just love that show it has so much drama and conflicts. I'm hooked to it.

How often should a couple in their 20's go out together. Mind you we both work and have baseball a few nights a week. (link)
| |
2 or 3 times a week because you should also be hanging out with your friends and family because your still young.

i started waxing my legs recently and it hurts so badly :S
are there any ways to wax so it doesnt hurt too much?
i mean seriously it feels like im ripping my skin off :S (link)
| |
put something frozen on your legs before you go to get your legs done and after. there is also cold wax which will num your legs while your getting them waxed. You could either buy it and bring it to where you get it waxed or find a place that has that wax.

So Ive been dating the guy of my dreams for about 7 months now. The problem is... hes not as perfect as I thought he would be.
He's had alot of girlfriends before, and hes slept with 4 of them, including a co-worker he never actually dated.
Hes the only guy Ive ever had sex with, so its hard for me. Its intimidating, and I feel like Im not good enough as they were and all the other stupid stuff us girls think about.
I feel like if I don't get over it, it's going to ruin the relationship eventually.
Hes told me repeatedly that they mean nothing to him and tried to reassure me but nothing really seems to help. Anyone got a good idea? (link)
| |
Well i know it probaly is hard for you because that would annoy me too. If he never talks about them then they really don't mean anything to him. When it starts to bug you think of how much he likes you and all the fun times you've have together.

my cellphone doesnt have the internet on it but is there anyway that you can get ringtones without having to use the internet on your phone?
thanks! (link)
| |
if you have a recording option on your phone you could record music on your computer or radio. But that's the only.
|
sorry i didnt know under what category to put this.
i have hair around my belly button and its soooo anoying. i shaved it but it grows back quite fast. i was thinking about waxing but im not sure if waxing on stomach is healthy? (link)
| |
well if you want you could bleach them so they become less noticable or like you want you can wax them but you'll have to keep up with it which would be the only thing that would bother me. If your really patient and pain tolerent you could pluck your hairs too.

Alright, so me and my best friend are EXTREMELY close. We can tell each other anything and we trust each other completely. We hang out a lot and stuff and we're both addicted to taking pictures and stuff, so we go to the mall and take crazy pictures all the time. According to another of our friends, who is really really honest about anything, we are acting like lesbians? I don't know how, I mean we just like to hang out, like normal "best friends" should. I'm straight and I don't know about my best friend, but she says she is so I believe her. Not that there's anything wrong with lesbians, but if people think you are and you aren't, it can kinda mess up some relationships. I guess what I want to know is; how do you and your best friend act? if it's similair to the way we act, do people call you a lesbian? Thanks! (link)
| |
well if while you were friends she's liked, flirted, or dated a guy she is either straight or bi if she hasn't done any of these things ask around to see who she's dated or liked or just ask her i don't think she will mind.

How long should you wait after hooking up with a guy and not recieving a phone call before deciding if he's used you or not? Sorry if that was a little confusing to understand, but it's been a week now and im not sure if i should just forget about him and move on, i really just can't stop thinking about him and i know after having sex the guy should at least call if he cares about the girl at all right? i mean if he dosent.. does that mean he has no feelings for her whatsoever? (link)
| |
well if he hasn't contacted you in a week obviouly he is a jerk and he just used you. So, just find another guy.Don't waste your time on that guy anymore.

my friend who's name is andee is usually the happy type of person.. she rarely cries. and today, i found out that andee was crying really hard to my other friend. andee is really close to her grandma, and turns out that her grandma has cancer. me and my friend is planning to all hang out and to cheer andee up, but what should i say to be able to comfort her? i'm not very good at comforting people when it comes to something that you can't stop from happening, so what should i say?
please & thank you! (link)
| |
well in these situations it's hard to know exactly what the right thing is to say. But, just tell Andee that your really sorry about your grandma and that your there for her if she needs you.

Okay so my boyfriend recently broke up with me because I refused to have sex with him. My best friend has a class with him and he is constantly flirting with her.The bad thing about is that she has a boyfriend and the though of my ex trying to get her to cheat makes us mad.I feel giving him a peace of my m ind,but I don't want to be rude yet I have no idea how to tell it in a nice way.What should I do? (link)
| |
first of all that is stupid for him to break up with you for that reason. it's good you guys broke up though because he didn't really like the real you.But back to your question i think you should confront him because he is a jerk for trying to do that to your friend.
|
|
ok, this guy asked me out and i think he's pretty cute and i used to have a crush on him. The only thing is he asked me out over myspace and at first i thought it was a sincere question but im starting to doubt it and i think it was someone doing it as a joke...how do i find out if it was really him or just one of his friends playing around? (link)
| |
ask him if he is really asking you out in person, call him, or text him.
