need to tone up fast
i'll try to be as short as possible! :)i'm 21, f, 5'7", and i honestly really dont know how much i weigh. i really love the features i have right now (butt, wide hips) but i have some pudge and arm fat that i REALLY want to get rid of quickly. i understand exercise will make me lose weight in every area, but is there a way i can really focus on losing weight and lose fat around my arms and belly without completely getting rid of my rear end and thighs? thanks so much in advance.

The answer above is correct, you can't excercise for a particular area to lose fat, you can tone up your muscles and this may reduce how the fat looks on the surface of them but it's not going to reduce the percentage of fat that you are genetically pre-disposed to carry in that area.
To reduce fat in general, which is a very good idea on the whole, try cardiovascular excercise and see which areas it starts coming off. You never know you might actually like the changes when it does start.
Please however, do eat sensibly while you are excercising and don't suddenly cut good food type calories and up excercise, do it gradually and find a balance so you don't make yourself ill. Also remember that it takes your body around 4 months to recognise an "eating normal" so any diet that you have for less than that may not work long term, you have to stick to a good eating habit long term for it to be properly effective.

Not really no.
You cant control where fat comes from - or at least when spot reduction has been detected it was so little that it is negligible. You might get lucky... thats something else, e.g. if your genes "decide" to prioritise the right areas first.
But there is no way to force it.
