I donated hair for locks of love 3 times already in the past 4 tears.But the thing is who do they donate them to? Do they donate them to only little kids or adults too? Because i never really knew.

What are some easy ways to get stubborn eyeliner and mascara off? Sometimes I scrub my eyes raw.

 

You need to use makeup remover. Then it will come off easily. Smile L

i am SO glad that they recongnize Breat Cancer!! but i hate it when people call it "boob cancer" it is low class and insentivtive.

my mom had breast cancer and she's been healthy for 4 years now!! But breast cancer runs in my family, so it is most likely i will get it too..
Seriously girls, do monthly checks!! Ask your doctor on how to do it! It saved my mom's life and it will save mine too later on in my life.

Ok so i really like this guy Jake. Hes pretty cute, nice and funny. But the only problem is his friends are really annoying and wierd. And he used to like me. good thing. ive never really asked anyone out myself. how do i tell him that i like him? Ive only had one bf and that was in 6th grade and im now in 8th. so i have no "experience". can you please help me? thanks ahead of time!

Hey babes,just be honest and open.My only advice is that you dont judge himbased on his friends.This is about you and him.xo JANA

I will definitely want the nail polish. I want to badly for breast cancer to be cured. I think I might have it. I am using the Sally Hansen Maximum Growth nail treatment, and they are almost fully grown. I am gonna stock up on polish.

pegasusgirl57 on 9/27/2008 11:28:31 PM

mod
do you think 2 years is too big of a difference to date if im 14 and the guy i like is 16? im afraid people at my school will call me things im really not. also my bff said that in a year it would be illegal for me to date him cuz he would be too old and me too young. is that true?




Hey girl!

It is ok to date someone who is 2 years older than you. It becomes illegal if you do stuff. But if you r concerned talk to your parents about it.

MOD, No one replied 2 my mod up there, is it says this:
What age do I have to be to participate in the Breast Cancer 3 Day Walk/Run??
Thanks!!




Hey girl!

Srry we have been busy. I do not know what age you have to be to participate in the walk. You can go do some research on it or ask a parent if they know or to help you find the information.

Mod,
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE help me with this! PLEASE? So, here's the sitch. I have a huge crush on this guy. He's cute, funny, and SUPER sweet! Plus, he one of my best freinds bgf. They hang out all the time. The one tbing I hate is that I get all jelous! He kept giving her(one of my best friends that is friends with him) hugs. and I lyed to her when she asked if I was mad at her about it! I feel so bad, but I just can't help it! I'm jelous! Plus, some of my friends don't like him becuase he is kinda emo, but my friend thinks that me and him would be a really cute couple! Tonight I'm going to a party, and he is going to be there too! I'm soooo nervous, and if I really know the host, who is one of my other friends and knows that I like him, will probably asighn us to sit at a table together. HELP! I'm sooo nervous!

 

You should get your friend to invite you when she hangs out with him! Smile L

PeppermintC♫ on 9/27/2008 2:00:10 PM

Alot of people in my family have battled breast cancer. (I'm glad to say most have survived). Most recently though my BFF's mom got diagnosed. I'm definetely going to look for these kinds of products. I think it's great that you guys put up a page like this since cancer touches so many of us. Last year at school my friends and I all wore pink in support and we're planning on doing it again!

MOD-

My best friend just got dumped. Their relationship was short, and they barely got a chance to go on a date, but they said they loved eachother. Yesterday, was our school dance. They were sapposed to go together, and by friend was soo excited. Then, at the beginning of the night, her boyfriend's friend say that her boyfriend just wants to be friends with her. I don't belive this so I find her boyfriend and ask him if this is true. He says it is. Isn't he such a jerk that he couldn't even break up with her himself? My friend tells veryone that she is just fine and that everyone should stop telling her their sorry and hugging her. We stayed the est of the dance and just ignored her ex. i'm wondering if there's anyway to help my friend cause i think she's really upset about this inside, but she's just not showing it.

EVERYONE PLEASE READ THIS....IT COULD SAVE YOUR DOG'S LIFE!
Yesterday, my mom was at the park with my dog. Suddenly, out of nowhere, three pit bulls came running out and started to attack her. My dog did not fight back, she was too traumatized and scared. Plus, she's a golden retriever and they are gentle. One of the pitbulls was 200 pounds, and it had Smuckers (my dog) by the neck. Suddenly, a pest control man came out of no where, and pulled the pit bull off of Smuckers. Smuckers was okay, she just has some puncture wounds on her neck, and she hurt her back paw. Please, keep your dogs on a leash!
