I'm 17 and I'm going for my first job interview. I've never been employed before. It's for a big store that I usually shop at, and I'm very nervous. Does anyone know what kind of questions the interviewer will ask me? What kind of clothing should I wear to the interview? I don't want to seem desperate & I don't want to say anything wrong.

Firsttt offf, i woudl wear black pants and a blouse, something professional looking, ya kno? And dont say "ya know" either, use proper english in whattever you say. The interveiwer will probably ask about prior work experiecne, why you want to work at that store, and questions along those lines. just look confident and like you are willing to take on the job, and dont look like a space-case. If they like your personality and think you are qualified, you are most likely in.

i've had this bump behind my right ear/on the back of my head for a really long time. i'd say a few years. the thing is, it hasn't gotten any bigger, it's hard, but stayed the same size & it's actually pretty small. it doesn't hurt when i touch it er anything. do you think it's something serious?? any ideas on what it could be??

thanks!!

first try to remmeber whether you had some kind of peircing or deep cut in that area. If you didnt, then you might want to see a doctor about that. It could be a cyst of some sort and can be removed by your doctor depending on what it was caused by. Seeing a doctor is a good idea for that kinda of thing though.

What are some easy dishes to make that doesn't really include specific amounts of ingredients? For example, chicken noodle soup? I can't think of anything right now. Well, thanks a lot!

mac n cheese[easy mac or something..or if you make it from scratch its elbows cheese a lil cream or milk, salt to taste..not complex at all]; spaghetti & red sauce[comes in a jarrr] or clam sauce [comes in a can]; umm rice-a-roni [follow instructions on the box] and idk sorry if this doesnt help at all....

Where can i find a bathing suit thats 32A and padded for a good price?

i've seen cute bathing suits at target. There cheap too. i dont know about the size tho, but 32A is a common size so they most likely have it.

Practically every morning when i wake up, my mom asks me if i have plans. And it drives me insane. I realize that she is only wondering, but how could i possibly have plans the MOMENT that i wake up? I know that i am overreacting to this but it still annoys me! Its also the wayy she says it. iTs just all so annoyign!

i know what you mean cause my mom does the same thing. She just wants to know what you are doing so she knows if it is going to change her schedule around. If you dont blow up at her and just tell her that "i dont know what i'm doing at this very moment, but i'm going to figure out my plans soon and tell you as soon as possible"
then she'll understand .. its no big deal, trust me, this will be the least of your problems.

15/F Alright, so I have been dating this guy, ryan, for about 6 months. I can honestly say that I LOVE him. Bu, lately he has been acting distant, strange. I was talking to a girl online and as soon as he found out I was talking to her he made me stop. It's just weird. And This may be a little TMI but the last time we were doing "things" He just stopped and said, "I can't do this." He's never done rhis before, What do you guys think, and any advice on how i may be able to figure out if he is?

most likely, he is cheating on you. i guess you've considered this by now, and you really need to talk to him and find out. If you dont want to talk to him about it but still want to know, well go behind his back and find out, just like he went behind your back and cheated[supposedly].

there are plenty of more guys out there SOMEWHERE that you can date... good luck with everythingg

My friend gave my number to the guy that I like and he said that he would definitely call me. If he calls me, I know that I'll get nervous and freeze up. In case he does call, how do I stop myself from being nervous and how can I calm down?

when you get on the phone with him, just be like "heyy whats uppp" or something that you usually do when you talk online...let the guy do most of the talking...once you get familliar with his style, just kinda go along with the convo and BEEEE YOURSELFFFF. if the guy likes you , he should like you for you. so just breattthhhh take deep breaths [not into the phone hahh] and talk a little...say what your doing, what your going to doo...whatever yall find to talk about..itllbe fine , just relaaaxxx



good luckk!

My Best friend has had problems with an eating disorder and with cutting for some time now. She is in therapy and recieving treatment for both, however she still sometimes relapses and doesn't eat or cuts. Her boyfriend seems to think it is apropiate to say things to her when she doesnt eat like "If you don't eat tommorrow then I'm not going to either" Or if she ends up cutting he cuts himself. I think that he is making her feel worse when all she really needs is support... What should I do...Opinions? Advice?

talk to her boyfriend and tell him that if he really loves her and cares for her liek he should if he's her boyfriend, he should not be supporting her habit. she is obviously going to still cut and not eat, so getting her the help she needs is what her boyfriend should do instead of hurting himself too. He is going to end up being depressed too. Also talk to your friend and ask her why she is with her boyfriend if she keeps letting him hurt himself too. if she really loves him, she would try to get better help so he does not hurt himsefl also....



Talk to an adult about your situation so maybe together yall can help your friends....good luck!

So basically heres the deal
I went out with this guy..and I fell in love with him and everything is perfect for us i get along with his mom his dad his sisters his brothers and same to me...but he dumped me the other day i saw him and i still like him...anyone know how to tell him?

ive been in the same situation and if he isnt making you a priorty why make him yours? he obviously doesnt feel the same way about you so there isnt much you can do than try to get over him. Trust me, its hard, but getting out there with your friends and mmeeting new people helps incredibly. good luck...

okay i've been going bikini shopping & i have to try it on every time, soo i leave my underwear on, no problem. is this not safe to do?? i mean you have to try a bikini on before you buy it, but what if someone before you tried it on?? can you get sick from that?? germs?? idk what else.

thanks!!

you're doing the right thing by keeping your underweawr on, and i have neevr hear dof anyone getting sick from keeping there underwear on. its completely unsanitary however to take it off when trying on bikinis...there is usually a strip of cloth-like paper on the inside of the crotch of the bikini bottoms so just incase you do buy the bikini, itll be completely sanitary for you to use.....i still recommend washing it before oyu wear it b/c there are some GRIMEY people in this world that DONT leave there underwear on when tryin on bathing suits...gross...anyway, hope this helps!

so me and my boyfriend have been dating for a couple months and i love kissing him. and i always want to. we havent done it that much though. and its because i am a nervous wreck every time. he was my first kiss and weve never really made out or anything and he knows that im nervous and that he was my first and he knows i think i have no idea what im doing and he trys to make me feel better about it but i still cant help it. i want to make out with him but i dont know how to or how to get over the nervous thing. please dont say just go for it cuz i wish i could lol. any help you can give would be GREAT!!

before i ever made out with a guy before i also was a little nervous and i was scared that whoever i did make out with first was gonna be like "damn wtf is wrong with this girl"...but its actually not liekthat at all...i just went for it one night and it worked out great, he even told me i was a good kisser, and thats with no practice what so ever. i didnt think about it at all and i honestly didnt realize i was making out with the kid til we stopped cause he had really bad breath. hah..i have a really bad story. but i know this isnt the answer you want, but the best way to make out with your guy is to just go with the flow and let him lead the way pretty much.

I have a fever..its 102.4 and my tonsils are swollen. I have a sore throat and my ears hurt. I have a head ache. I'm achy everywhere, My eyes are sensitive to light, and my neck is really stiff. Yeahh I REALLY don't feel good..AT ALL. Any idea on what I might have or whats wrong?

most likely, its tonsilitus &/or the flu, but most likeyl the flu because of the achyness and you didnt mention any white cauliflower looking growth on your tonsels. the extremely high tempurature is pretty bad and i suggest you drink lottsss and lotsss of fliuds like water or gatorade. chicken soup always helps too when you want to eat....like one of the other people said, your neck is probably stiff b/c of lieing around a lot, and the eyes is just normal when you have a fever. hope you feel better, and call a doctor if you feel the need..

okay today was the last day of school for my school. okay to keep it short, i like this guy and we are also friends. how can i stay in touch with him over the summer so he doesn't forget all about me? IMing him doesn't work because all he ever answers with is 'lol' or 'yeah'. and there is NO WAY i'd ever call him. that would be too weird, because we are more of like school friends. we talk in school and everything but not out of school.

thanks! i rate high =D

start out a convo online saying that you had fun this school year blaa blaa blaa and mention that you think yall should hang out sometime...ask him if he wants to hang out someday with some friends...you bring a girlfriend, and he'll probably bring a firend and hang out at the mall or something or somebodys house.

I've known my bestfriend since 7th grade (we're now both juniors) and we're the closest two friends can get and I love her to death.


Our freshman year, we'd always hear about this girl Meagan and how slutty and bitchy she is. Meagan is a grade ahead of us. Well, 2nd semester of freshman year my bestfriend had a class with her but only for about a week because she got switched out.


Last year, my sophomore year, I was in a class with her for the whole year and at fisrt I didn't like her because of the things I've heard but we started talking and she wasn't that bad. Yeah, some of the rumors were true but she was still a good, fun friend. Now we're really good friends. Not as good as my bestfriend and I, but nevertheless, friends.


So whenever I'm with my bestfriend, and I talk about Meagan, she gives me this disgusted look and talks smack about her. I tell her to shut up and not talk about people she doesn't know and then that's the end of it.


Meagan and I are going to a concert in July and I asked my bestfriend if she wanted to come with us because I know she likes that band. Well, she told me that if Meagan is going, she isn't.


How can I get her to stop being so judgmental and at least try to actually meet her?

even tho your best friend is being judgemental and really shouldnt talk about a person she really doesnt know, you should also be considerate of your best frineds feelings. She doesnt like this girl that you've become friends with, maybe because she things Meagan is stealing you away from her, and she needs to kno that you are not going to ditch her for meagan, especially by going to a show with Meagan by a band oyu kno your best friend likes.


There may also be another reason your best freind doesnt like Meagan...she may know something about her that you don tknow...Your best friend could be trying to protect you... you never know, so talk to your friend and see whats really up.

My 16th birthday is coming up in about 6 months. I know that seems like a long time, but my mom wants me to go ahead and have it planned this summer so i can book whatever I decide to do. But that's my problem. I DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO! I can either have more people and do something less extravigant, but still kinda big. or something big with a few friends. I'm a girl, my birthday is in December, but i'm alergic to cold, so I cant actually be outside. I'm a 'princess'. lol. I want to do something fun. Not like go to a movie, and go to dinner. Something maybe that will bring out my inner child. haha. please help!
i'll rate high :D

thanks!!

idk wherr you live, but why dont you and a few close friends go into a city in the area and go on a shopping spree...its december so theyll be plenty of sales so it wont be too expensive, plus theres places to eat and have fun at in cities so theres a little of everything...i hope this give you another idea besides the typical sweet 16 at a hotel with a dj and such...just another idea!.....GOOD LCUKK

So i was dating this guy and we were getting pretty serious and I was completley head over heels in love with him, and he claimed he was too. EVerything was perfect. Than out of no where tonight he dumps me because he wants to date around and doesn't want to be in a relationship. What do i do?? Is he lying? i Need advice ahhhh

He's probably not lieing and it is just his way of telling you he's a manwhore and wants every chick he can get. i don tknow how old he is, but if he is younger he probably isnt going to want a serious relationship anyways and he jsut wants to be out there and see whats out there. i suggest you do the same so you get a feel for what your dealing with..
