Hello my children,
I am the incredible Mable.
I was blessed with the gift to see the right answer to most moral questions (basically I am psychic). I do not tell futures, but I do have visions. I also have great life experience.I have a very strong taste in music. Mostly bands from the 1980's to now. Even though I am almost 70 (yikes) I still know how to have a good time. I would love to be of assistance to you my pretty pets!
Love From,

Hello Mable ..
I'm a 17 year old female from Ohio and I really want to become an actress. That's the only thing I can vision myself being. I really don't know how to get started though. One day, I really want to be huge and successful, I want to be in front of the camera and I want to be able to have enough money to give back to my grandparents for everything they've done for me, and I want to be able to help poor people and adopt orphans and stuff like that. I want people to write me fan mail and tell me about their problems and have an influence over them. I just want to be in front of the camera and make really good movies that move people. I don't have a lot of money right now so I don't know how to get started. I know I am pretty enough, but I am also scared and I know I'll be nervous at first when I first start getting into it. Any advice? Thank you so much for reading this (link)

Hello, Child.
It is so wonderful that you have such strong goals. I once wanted to be an actress, and I could have been one, but I dicided to stay at home and be with my family. Something that is VERY important when starting any career is to have good friends and good teachers. If in your highschool, there is a play, audition! Talk with the person directing it about his or her career. Also, with the internet there are web sites that have auditions that would be in your area. My first audition was when I was in first grade, and I got to go to the audition, because my first acting teacher reffered me. Check the internet for Ohio auditions, and remember to NEVER give up!

Yeah, my granmother just died, we're having a funeral for her on saturday, and I don't want to be there. My dad says "Its not your decision to make" does anyone have some persuasion techniques? Or have you ever heard of a way to convince someone to do something your way?
I don't want to go. What' sthe best way to say it so I get to stay?? (link)
|
Its your Grandmother. She loved you. It should not have to be your dad's decision, because you should just go. Funerals are not pleasant, but they are apropriate. You NEED to go.

HAPPY 666 (6/6-06) HAHA :P
Okeey, here's the thing, I just got a new bulletin board to my room, and I wanna make it cool!
What can I put upexcept pictures (already done that) is there anythikng else, any ideas to make it look cool??
thanks!! (link)
|
I made a bulletin board for my sister's teenage daughter, and she loves it. I got a pretty big bullitin board, and I uppholstered it with white fur fabric. Then, I got clear dragon tears, and decopauged small pictures, letters, and patterns from magazines on the back of them. When you turn the tear over, you can see the image enlarged through the glass. I used E-6000 glue to glue flat headed tacs to the back of each tear. You can also paint flowers and pictures on the back of the dragon tear.
have fun!

My four year old nephew who is turning five has his birthday on the 8th of this month, (in two days)and i want to make him a present, because i havent gotten paid yet, so i really dont have money until next week, which kinda sucks, and i have a lot of craft things, a whole bunch in matter of fact.
So does anybody have any ideas?
I have feathers, colored paper, paint, foam board, colored pencils, stickers, beads, different colors of string, etc.

Hello Hev
You should put together a box with some of your craft stuff in it. So that your nephew can make his own projects. Decorate the box with his name and such on it. You could put a picture of him and you on it, or a picture of just him ore something like that.
Wish him happy birthday for me!
Love from,

14/f. I have ants in my room, and I already vacuumed as many as I can, but they keep coming back.& We don't have raid because it gives my mom a miagrane. Anything non-chemial that I can use to keep them away? (link)
|
Hello Dear!
My cabin in Guam was infested with vermin too.
We did not have any chemicals,so I made my own trap. ** MAKE SURE THAT ABSOLUTELY NO I REPEAT NO PETS COULD POSSIBLY GET INO THE ROOM ** Clear the room of pets, food, etc. Then take some honey or syrup and mix it with bleach. Just a little splash will do. Then take an empty pop bottle. I used the glass coke bottles, but those are hard to find any more. Put about 1 inch of the mixture into the bottom of the bottle. Tip the bottle on its side. Let the honey settle. Then put the bottle (you could make more than one) in your room in the wors spot. Make sure that ants can get into the hole in the bottle. They will go in eat the bleach and die.
The traps work well too, but this is something that you could make at home.
Keep vaccuming and change the mixture every day.
Good luck! Too bad that you can't use Raid it works wonders, child.

whatever you can find from either styles, or things i can make,ect. would really help!thanks! (link)

Hello Sweetheart!
As an artist, I have been commissioned (once or twice) to do home design. My style is the late 1960's futuristic style. So if that is what you want, I am your lady.
Furniture- I don't know if you get to have new sofas, chairs or tables in your room, but if you do, this site has wonderful (new, but accurate) reto furniture. The furnature is much cheaper on this site than anywhere else. http://www.funkysofa.com/index.html
Paint/colours- In that time, yes I was in my prime years in the late 60's, bright colours were everywhere. Some colours that were very popular are: atomic red, lime green, yellow, orange, olive green, and chocolate brown. (most of these colours in the futuristic movement would be paired with white.) the website abovde has a fabric button that shows some pretty accurate fabric colours.
Curtians- curtians were floor to celing, and what I think of is white curtians with a bold pattern. The pattern could be blue, orange, red...
Lighting- a 60's type light ficture that you could make yourself is a plastic cup light. I made one for my appartment when I lived in Paris, and couldn't buy one. You get plastic cups (clear) and you glue them together. Yoy can now use hot glue to keep them together. You glue the side of one cup to another. Then, chose one of the two and glue more around it, like the chosen cup is the centre of a flower. The cups are slanted, and if you keep adding on to the original "flower" you will eventually get a globe. Leave enough room for a lightbulb to get through to the middle of the globe. This is a picture of the same project done a bit differently. http://www.designboom.com/contest/view.php?contest_pk=6&item_pk=2763&p=1
Have fun! You can ask me if you need more help.

It's so weird, for some reason tonight, I'm so nervous, I can't eat, I can't sit still, and I keep on thinking about what's going to happen at school tomorrow.
The problem is, I have n-o-t-h-i-n-g to be nervous about.
Any advice on how to
a.) calm myself
b.) figure out why I'm so tense/nervous
Thanks! (link)
|
This happened to me all the time in my school days. I was nervous that I didn't have all of my homework finished, or that there was a test.
Make a list of things that you had to do. Then cross out each thing that you have completed. This might 1) help you see something that you have not finished, and your subconcios is trying to tell you that. 2) see that you are all set for tomorrow.
To relax listen to some calming female vocals like: Neko Case, Cat Power or Imogen Heap.
Lie down and breathe deeply.
You are probably so nervous because it is the end of the year.

me and my boyfriend broke up this morning online because he "just wanted to be friends." i want to say something to him really sweet that will make him love me again. i know i can't make him love me but i just want to let out my feelings and to let him know i still love him. if anyone could kinda write a few sentences that i can send to him to let him know i still love him, that would be great. no poems or songs though please. im 13/f. thanks. automatic ones if you say that i can't make him love me because i KNOW i cant. (link)

The internet is a facinating and dangerous creature. It can be a wonderful thing, or it can hold many evils. I DETEST online "chatting" when something is in writing, then you cannot tell if it is a joke or a small comment or an angry remark.
If you have not seen your "boyfriend" today, then you might not know if it is real or not. Don't believe it untill you see it, honey.
If he did breakup with you, then talk to him IN PERSON. Friends are good. Atleast he dosn't hate you.

It is not a full Chihuahua, because they have sticky-up ears. It could be a chihuahua/jack russle terrier mix. It sure is a cute puppy.

Does anyone have any good ways to get yourself to fall asleep at night? Particularly at slumber parties?
Thanks to anyone who answers :) (link)

I recently had very bad Migrane headaches, and I went to Biofeedback, which is a medical treatment, that helps you to relax and get rid of stress. There were several excersises that I did with this young lady. She gave me a CD of her voice guiding me through the excersises. One of the most effective things to do to relax your body, is to take VERY DEEP breaths. With each breath, when you exhale relax deeper into the bed. Tensing and relaxing your muscles works very well, too. I would look into getting a CD of either ocean waves (which can actually hypnotize you to sleep) or a biofeedback CD.

I'm 18/f. My boyfriend's birthday is coming up in june (he's turning 21), and I had the idea to throw him a really cool party, but I have a bunch of options right now and I'm not sure which to go with. My first idea was to have the party at his house (surprise party), and involve his parents.
Thing about his parents is I don't think they really like me, and I'd like to win them over, so to speak. I think if I went and talked to them about it, they might like me more...well, this might actually go in another question...anyway, I could throw it at his house and involve his parents a little bit, but then it'd have to be a dry party.
I could also get some of my older friends to help me out and make it a wet party, but then it couldn't be at his house, and it might cost more.
Money's not much of a problem right now, but I don't wanna like, splurge, so I can't like rent a place or anything. Yannow? It'd have to be at a friend's house or something.
So I guess I'm asking if anyone has ideas and/or opinions.
Lemme know!
Decent spelling and grammar, please. They're important. If you TyPe LyK dIz, you're not getting a five. =D (link)

Hello
I think that involving this lad's parents for a "dry" party would be very smart. A "wet" party would be very unwise especially if you organized it. Just imagine this boy's parent's reaction when they see their son drunk because of you. And, if you are 18 you couldn't drink at the party anyways, right? If ypu make this boy happy, then how could his parents not like you. It might be fun to have a "little kid" party. You could have baloons, pink party hats, and farty favours.
Have fun! (and stay sober untill you are 21)

i am so freaked out about my upcoming concert. i play piano and the only piece im playing is this five page one with a metranome pace of 144 (ahhhh!). im playing with my school's chorus and on tuesday i have to play in front of the whole school. im playing the real concert for the parents on wednesday but the other one is more important because i have to play amoung my friends, boyfriend, and my boyfriends friends. even when i think about the possibilities of messing up makes me flip out and play the wrong key. all that pressure too! im even nervous typing about it.
my school's chorus isnt so organized and i've only played with the actual chorus 2 times. both of those times my fingers missed a whole chunk of the piece. i think its the 'being in front of people with their eyes on your every move' thing that scares me. its not exactly stage fright but i just want to be good enough for them. and all of these thoughts come to me when i play and it really takes my focus off because the adreniline starts going crazy. i know i tell myself to just play and give it my all but idk.
i have practiced this song so much at home but its different there. my hands get shaky in front of the chorus and that doesnt allow me to move my fingers as smoothly. and guess what else. deep breaths dont help.
is there any like, good luck charms or exercises i can do before i go on? PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE you dont know how much this matters.
and i appreciate anyone who has taken the time to read this book-long entry. fives to everybody. (link)

Hi
When you are on stage, don't think about the people. TRY TRY TRY to just concentrate on what you need to do. If you skip a chunk, don't worry. The audience dosn't know that part was left out, and the choir can figure it out. If you mess up a little don't stop.
I really love good luck charms. Wear a favorite piece of clothing, or bring a small item that is special to you.
The very best of luck!

i'll rate 5! thanks (link)

Hello,
This is a tough situation. Your parents will probably react to it better if you tell them yourself. If someone else tells them first, they will get even more mad. If you tell them the whole story, and that you tried to stop the friend, and that you got (literally) dragged out of the resturaunt. Tell them that you DID end up paying, and that you would never do anything like that again. If your parents let you see your law breaking friend again soon, you need to tell her that you can't do things like that again.
If you need any more help, just ask!
love,

I have to remember a poem for school. Any tricks to help me memorize it? It's pretty long. (link)
|
When I was younger I did many many plays, wher I would need to memorize lines. The thing that helped me most was to hear another person read my lines to me. Get a parent or friend to read one line of the poem, then you read the next. You will get a rythm going and you will remember it like your name.
Good Luck

ok. im 12. somewhat skinny, and 100 lbs. i havent eatn in about 6 days,but i drink water a lot. i want to eat, but then i feel bad and ill just make myself throw up. i geuss im afraid to eat or gain weight. i keep passing out and only a few ppl know why. help anyone? (link)
|
If you are starving yourself, and making yourself vommit because of the way that you look, then you have an eating disorder. From what you discribed, you are anorexic and bulemic. These conditions are VERY serious. People with eating disorders need professional help. They may eat and then feel huge guilt and then make them selves vommit. Even if the person is skinny and fit, they will see themself as fat. You need to see your doctor.
I hope you get this before you are banned from the site for being 12.

Long story short a teacher who taught me last year (but i still have to see around)has never liked me and vice versa as she has a nasty habit of picking on students in a ridiculously childish and unprofessional way. Well I've always refused to be intimidated by her and although I've never been rude I've always stood my ground.
Now she knows I won't be intimidated she's taken to spreading false but relatiely harmless rumours to my teachers behind my back. And just today I found out she's been telling people I've changed my mind about a university place I've accepted which I certainly haven't. I have no idea where she gets these things from or if she just akes them up but I've had enough and really want to say something to her about this incident in particular (as obviously if it gets back to the university it will not look good).
Any suggestions as to what I should say that puts an end to it without being rude?
I'm leaving school in a few days if it helps.
Thanks for reading (link)

I feel your pain. I had several teachers that just dicided to not like me. If you are getting out for summer break in a few days, you should prbably leave the situation alone. You only have to put up with it for
If you will be at the same school next year, then I suggest that you tell the principal, or someone of power. Your parents have much power over teachers. A simple phonecall from mom or dad can make a world of difference. It is important that you yourself don't approach her, let an adult do it for you.
Good luck, and nice summer!

what were some major events that happened during the oregon trail. for example, cholera poisoning. (my sister) needs to draw a picture about it, and i wanted to help. so does anybody have any scenes ideas? (link)

River crossings were a HUGE event in the journey to Oregon. Many wagons sank in the rivers and people drowned.
These are some pictures for inspiration.

Me and my sister have only one year difference
I'm the oldest one
We have a cousin who nobody in the family likes becuse she is rude and almost all the time has a bad humour .
When we were living alone she came to live with
us becuase her mom(my aunt)was giving her a hard time .Because she didn't want to take care of her baby
She had make my life a hell ,we constantly were fighting and stuff and she put my own sister against me .Me and my sister came to europe to study and we both have our own house .
We finely talk more often to each other and the relationship was great between us .
Last year my cousin came to live in the
same town as us and only 10 min away from both off us .
So I do not go often more to my sis because of her ..she talks realy
bad to me and even to my bf and some other friends of mine ..
And all this happen while my sister is standing there and she doesn't say nothing
Last night my sister invited me and my bf over for dinner so we went and to our big surprise my cousin came too.
While we were talking my sister told me that she had a big dept on her phone and the company closed her phone ..I was telling her what she could do and stuff .....My cousin just stood up and told me that maybe my sister have a high dept becuase she has to call me to much because I never has credit on my phone ...in front of everybody ...I SWEAR THIS IS NOT TRUE .
I told her that she was very wrong ..
I WAS HURT
MY SISTER DIDN'T SAY NOTHING.
My sister even broke up with her lifetime best friend because of my cousin.Her relationship with her mother(addoptive mother ,our real mother left us alone in a house when we were 12)
went from10 to 3 .Becuase of our cousin.
When they go out my sister is always the one who pays for her,she always says that she doesn't have money wich I suspect she has becuase she gets money from government and she works partime at her own house..
My sister always says she is like that becuase nobody else understand her and that she has had a rough life too ,but helllloooooo I have had a really fucked up life too atleast her mother were there to give her hard time mines left.
I have had a real bad childhood but still I dont treat people like crap like they are worth nothing,she does and my sister justified her.
Should I just let the relationship I built with my sister this past 3 years just go and not fight it??
Or should I stand up to my cousin ......in front of my sister ?
I'm really tired and I do not want to give it a try ....I have suffer a lot when we were living togheter all becuase of my cousin ...
Is this feeling right ??

Hi Sweetheart,
You sound like a very kind person. You took in your cousin (who obviously as some issues) I have a very strong bond with my sisters. That bond is so important to me. You and your sister have bee through a lot (with your mother leaving you) and you need to stay close. Your sister did arrange that dinner for you, but the cousin ruined it.
Your cousin sounds like an unpleasant person. If she had a baby, then it is HER responsibility to take care of it. Your aunt should definatly keep bothering your cousin about caring for her own child.
I think that you need to stand up to your cousin. I think that your sister couldn't be fond of her either.
The very very best of luck to you!
Love from,
Mable
