What would you get a gold medal in?

With a week left 'til the Opening Ceremony, we've been indulging in some daydreaming. We admit it, chicas, our heads are in the clouds! What's on our minds? Nothing but gold! If we were to climb up to the top of that podium, we know exactly what we'd medal in. Too bad they aren't Olympic sports...yet!
 
We asked the GL crew what they get gold in. Here's what they said:
 
"Arcade basketball. I don't know why or how, but I'm amazing at hoop games! I even hold the high record at my favorite place to play." - Kelsey, sales and marketing assistant
 
"Planning. I'm so organized, I've been nicknamed 'the cruise director.'" - Katie, production director
 
"Memorization. I'm a pro at remembering weird facts, foreign vocab words and all my friends' birthdays." - Jess, associate fashion editor
 
"Making people laugh. Whether it's weird faces or crazy impersonations, I'm a sucker for making myself lok 'bad' to get a chuckle." - Trish, associate editor
 
"Baking. My brownies are so god, I'd set the sweet-ness bar sky-high!" - Brittany, associate online editor
 
"Making dinner for my family and friends. You know you've done something right when everyone comes back for seconds." - Brooke, national advertising sales director

What skill would help YOU score Olympic gold?

MOD MOD MOD MOD MOD so during band camp i wanna try and lighten my hair with lemon juice. i Googled it, and all the directions i've looked at say that if you stay out in the sun with the lemon juice in your hair, it can fall out or turn orange or red:O is there a variation you know of where i can leave it in all day and it won't do anything? thanks!!

Hey girl,

If your hair is brown, lemon juice or sun-in will turn it red, not a lighter brown (trust me, I've done it!). So if that's a color you're looking for, great! Otherwise, talk to your mom about temporary or chemical-free dyes for the color you want.

Cooking and Baking for sure.
Also painting, crocheting, drawing, designing, and that's it. (This isn't supposed to sound like bragging. This is just more specific than 'artsy stuff'. Plus I'm not good at all artsy stuff.) Smile

Actually, I'm sticking to track and field, making silly faces and expressions, also, being a nerd and say a weird fact, or using my vocabulary to make people speechless and say, "Um, what was that you said?"

Right now, I wish I could get a gold medal in getting money. I need to earn at least 30 dollars. Hey, Moderator, can ya help me? Please? I don't wanna do like garage sales, lemonade stands, or babysitting. I'm only 11! Please help! I'll die - not really, but still- if i dont earn the money at least in a week.
Thanks, Ur the best!

 

Hey girl!  I know it's soo tough to make money when you're not old enough for most jobs.  Is there a way to turn what you love into a summer job?  You could make crafts or jewelry to sell, or offer to pet-sit for your neighbors while they're on vacay.  Think about what you love and get creative - I know you'll come up with something Smile xoxo

I have noticed I am getting a stutter. How can I make it go away? I feel like no guys will like to talk to me because of it.




Hey girl!

I'm not really familiar with what to do when you have a stutter. I think you should talk to your parents about it and maybe getting some help to get rid of it.

What is the obsession over BB Creams? I don't know what it is, but apparently it's all the rage can you please fill me in?




Hey girl!

BB creams (Blemish Balm) originated in Germany and are extremely popular in Asia. Women love BB cream because it soothes skin and has regenerating properties. BB creams have just recently been introduced in the U.S. in the past few months, which explains the BB craze!
