First off, I wish my average rating thing was my GPA. Heh.I'm a girl, 15, generally use good grammar (yay!), and a huge fan of sarcasm though I know when it's appropriate and when it isn't. Politics, psychology, philosophy, and history all fascinate me. The music I like usually falls under the genres of psychedelic and classic rock. I hate rap. And George W. Bush. I like giving advice because it gives me a warm fuzzy feeling knowing that other people are crazier than I am.
Ask away, I'll try to answer anything!

If you're questioning whether you're depressed or not, you most likely aren't.
Depression is usually categorized by frequent crying spells that seem to have no real reason, a loss of purpose in life, a big change in regular eating and sleeping habits, a lack of interest in things you once enjoyed, frequent thoughts of death, and just extreme sadness. The way you dress or what music you listen to has nothing to really do with it. If you have most or a lot of the symptoms I listed above, though, you desperately need help from someone you trust, but in my opinion, this is just regular old teenage angst and is nothing to worry about.
Good luck.
when i go to my itunes&have my ipod plugged in, there`s the area where it says what`s taking up the memory. in my memory area, it has 14.6 mb of other stuff. what other stuff is it ? &how do i get rid of it so i can put more songs instead ?
I believe that the "other stuff" is programs, folders, games, etc etc that came with your iPod already, and also stuff that is necessary to have on your iPod to keep it functioning properly. As far as I know, you can't get rid of it :(
is it pointless to do crunches when you have excess belly fat? i have a huge belly and i've been doing crunches, but all they have done is made my hip bones go away! I looked online and read that you shouldnt do crunches with excess belly fat because it'll just puff your stomach out more.
is this true? should i continue doing the crunches? does it get worse before it gets better? if not, how do I burn the belly fat and or lovehandles? thanks!
Basically, you need to first do some sort of cardiovascular excersize to burn the fat off. This could be running, or swimming, or just anything active. After that, crunches and the like will work. If you don't burn off the fat first then your abs will grow under your fat and it'll be pretty much useless! Do a google search on flattening your stomach, there should be some good information there as well.
Is it normal for the guy who loves u to check out other girls? because i find it sorta disrespectful but i also hear its normal and im confused..
Yeah, try not to let it bother you too much, its a natural instinct. I'm sure you notice other guys that are good looking, as well. If your boyfriend makes comments about other girls around you I can see how that would be really annoying and maybe you'd want to talk to him about it in that case, but if he's just looking without an agenda, I'd say its not that big of a deal.
Ok so I'm a year older then all of my friends. And I don't want them to know. I didn't get left back or anything. I have my reasons why I don't want them to know. So I'm scared that if one of them sees my school I.D. They will see that I wasn't born the same year they were. I'm so scared. I really can't tell them the truth don't ask why please. So I was wondering if someone can help me make up a lie. I kniw lying is bad but I'm desperate. This tortures me so much!. I need a lie to tell them why it says that I'm a year older. Like I don't know maybe my passport did that when I came here I seriously need help please!
Well, I don't really understand you're dread of them finding out, but nonetheless, the main thing I can think of is to simply say its a fake ID that someone made for you that looks super authentic...but that would only really work if you were pretending to be either 17 or 20...which you probably aren't...so you could maybe say that the person who made it for you messed up or something?
Sorry, that's really the only thing that isn't *completely* ridiculous that I could think of! I hope everything works out for you.
Ok, what are some good topics to give a speech on that will reach the 'hearts minds and souls of your fellow students'. I'm really tryin to think of a topic that will appeal to ALL of the audience (in this case grades 9 to 12), but I cant seem to think of anything that isnt cliche and I dont want to do that. Does anyone know something? I wont talk about rape or child abuse or something because its not really something direct to reach people with. Or how the media influences kids. They'll all be like 'Uh no, whats that got to do with us?' Do you get what I'm saying? And no one is a rapist or has been raped, so, you know, I want something they'll actually listen to, something actually worth talking about. Please help me!
Eating disorders... you can relate this to the media as well, ie glorifying overly thin airbrushed models etc which could contribute to girls feeling they need to look that way.
Another one *could* be affirmative action... giving special priveleges to those of minority races to make up for past greivances... for example, a White person may not be granted admission into a college while an African American of equal ability is, purely because of their race and to make up for how cruelly African Americans were treated before. There are valid arguments both sides, you'd have to decide where you stand on this matter. Although, I'm not sure how relavant this is to the society you live in, so you might want to be careful with this one.
Good luck :D
If I want to start/own my own clothing line, what would I need to major in in college?
There are a couple of possible majors, including:
General Design Major
Art
Drawing
Fashion Design
Fashion Merchandising
Fiber, Textiles, and Weaving Arts
and some more. I found this at http://www.princetonreview.com/cte/profiles/majors.asp?careerID=63.
Very good site to go to for this sort of thing.

What are some helpful studyin' tips?
Try to study at the same time everyday and make it more of a habit, get organized, make sure you have all your supplies, and keep yourself away from any potential distractions (computer, tv, phone etc.), take breaks between sessions, don't try to multitask...some people can pull this off but the majority can't, don't start something else before you've finished what you're doing, take notes on what you have to read and review it, etc etc. This should make you a better student, if you are driven enough to follow it all, which I hope you are.
Alright. Well, my best friend in the whole world is starting to confuse me. She is a real big Christian, as am I, and I understand that. But sometimes when I turn on the radio and like rap or something comes on, shes like "God doesn't want you listening to that." But then she will go to a party and dance to that same music. We are in 6th grade and she is dating an 8th grader, I'm pretty sure God doesn't want her doing that either. How do I explain to her that its ok to listen to the music you like or the shows you like?
Plz help! I will rate 5 to any resonable answer!
Tell her that even if she doesn't want to listen to that sort of music, she has no right whatsoever to try to place restrictions on what you can and cannot do and use religion as a basis for it. Religion is a personal experience, not something you should try to impose on others. Also just tell her that you won't interfere with what she chooses to do as long as she doesn't dictate to you what you're not allowed to do. Friendship is about loving and accepting people as they are, and once someone is trying to unjustifiably (ie if you're not doing something that could directly harm yourself or others) reform the other, there's something wrong.
Good luck, hope you work this out, and sorry if my answer was a bit rambling!

I've got patches of itchy skin on various parts of my body. On my legs I can see largish insect bites but on my wrists/arms and my breasts the bites are less visible. It's itchy really badly and I'm starting to cause red marks and little blodd blisters.
I thought it was the work of some biting insects I've seen flying around my room. However, as the weather gets colder then I'd expect them to die out for winter but this has lasted for a week or two now.
I live in Halls so it is quite possible for me to catch something contagious.
How do I treat whatever-it-is? Should I go and see a nurse/doctor?
It could be eczema. Here's a site I found on google:
http://www.skincarephysicians.com/eczemanet/whatis.html
If the symptoms match than I'd suggest seeing a doctor, they can give you lotions and the like to treat it.
Even if they dont match I'd still go to a doctor before it develops into anything more serious.
does anyone know any good sites that has movie quotes from movies like friday night lights?

I have this problem of disorganization, and handing stuff in late, at school, when I'm like an A+ student, but then sometimes for lateness I get dropped down 5-10 points. I really dont want to get bad grades because of my disorganization, and lack of neatness. My locker is messy, I keep saying that I'll do it tommorow, but never do, and the same with my room. Therefore, I get in trouble with my parents and teachers. A lot of times, while I'm doing homework (especially on the computer) if I'm bored, or not, I always seem to get distracted by something. Even my stories that I write sometimes dont even have any problems in them (not for school though) and I make the characters go off on tangents, like I do a lot of times in real life. Can someone give me some organization tips? All answers will be greatly appreciated.
Gah, I have the exact same problem!!!!
Last year what I did (and it helped a lot) was got different folders for each class in different colors which represented the day I had the class. Get a shelf for you locker, maybe keep your backpack on top, have a bookshelf for your textbooks and folders in between, and anything else that you dont really need for your classes on the bottom. For stories, make plan/outline exactly what you are gonna say before writing it. Catagorize all your ideas into different topics, then place your topics into different paragraphs/sections. From this generate an outline, and stick to it@! This might help you from randomly starting to talk about something else. Minimize your distractions in the area you study. I had this notorious habit of ALWAYS laying down and just doing my homework on my bed, with my phone and music next to me, and a whole lot of other crap, and I'd get so off task that I'd end up staying up incredibly late just to finish everything.
Getting organized begins with a mindset, you have to really WANT to accomplish it, which I'm guessing you do cos you posted this question up. It'll take time, but if you stick to it you'll definately get better.
Goodluck :)
Well I have been dealing with an impulse control disorder called Trichillomania. For those of you who don't know what that is, it's a disorder in which you have impulses to pull out your own hair. Well about a year ago I started pulling out my eyebrows, I have pulled them all out and they have been this way for that amount of time. I keep plucking them out every time a new one grows in. Well now I am in therapy for this and taking anti-depressant medication(Zoloft) which has helped the intensity go away to pull. Now my eyebrows are starting to grow back. It has taken them a week to finally start growing back without me touching them. I was wondering how long do you think it will take for them to be fully grown back in, and is there anything I can do to make them grow faster? Rogaine? I heard it works, but not so sure.
I had a little overplucking incident a couple of years ago, heh.
I'm not sure what exactly Rogaine does, but I think you're just gonna have to hold out and wait for them to grow back...mine took around a month maybe? Maybe shorter. Don't use any drugs to make them grow back until you're absolutely sure of it's effects.
In the meantime, go to your local cosmetic store and buy a good eyebrow pencil and use it to define them more. Don't over do it though, you dont want to end up looking completely fake! Just try to make it look as natural as possible.
Take care. =)
i always like this guy called arash and we went out bout 3 years ago and broke up and went out again bout 4months ago and splet up again and recently i gave him a call and we talked and i know that he likesmeand i love him i always lovedhim wat should i do?
Well, why can't you be with him? What's stopping you? I can't really tell from your question.
Consider your options. If the reason preventing you from being with him is stronger than your desire to be with him, then try to keep your distance.
If your love him to the point that the reason stopping you matters little, then *maybe* give it another shot.
Also, remember, you broke up twice. If in those two times you split up for a reason that is likely to repeat itself, then think about this! It may be time to move on, however hard it may be. Do you really want to go out with him again and in the end find yourself in the same position you were?
Please make your decision wisely, because broken hearts are hard to mend.
Goodluck, I hope everything works out :)
i need a flatter stomach by Friday. any suggestions on how to help? thanks i will rate high
Friday's a highly unrealistic goal, but try basic exercises like crunches, sit ups, etc.
Or just suck in, wear flattering clothes with solid colors, and try to look as gorgeous as you can :)
Does anyone have any quotes about life or inspirational or optimism that they wouldn't mind giving? Thanks ahead of time!
"If the world didn't suck, we'd all fall off."

Go to "My Computer" and open up the folder containing your file and right click and select "Open with..." and then "iTunes," it'll load on to your iPod next time you update.
It should work :)
What do you think is better to get? An ipod or another mp3 player. I heard that a zen micro is really good. Does anyone have them? What is the advantage and do you enjoy using it. Or does anyone else have something different that they think is better?
I have 6 gb iPod mini, which is now probably obsolete cos of the iPod nanos.
I really really like mine. Its very easy to use, has handy functions like a sleep timer, alarm clock, notes, and calender, and a couple of games, and is aesthetically pleasing
I'm not too sure if I'd reccomend getting one though. First off, the battery life isn't all that great, it runs out quite fast. It also depends what kind of a music listener you are-- do you have lots of albums or do you mostly download songs? If you just download you don't need much space because the file size isn't very big. In retrospect I would have gotten something with a greater capacity because I think I'm gonna run out of space soon. People also say that you're just paying half the price for the brand name, I dont know though.
So basically... buy an iPod if you value conveniance and aesthetics. If those aren't too important I'd look for something else.
