Hi(: so for Christmas I want to get my mom what she wants...I know it's werid and crazy but she wants a vacuum...I almost peed when she told me that's what she wanted lol(: but anyways I want to get her this but she's wayy to amazing and does WAYY to much just for a "vacuum"... So total!! I want to get her a vacuum and like a $30 other gift. So this means her gift will be SUPER expensive...which is money I don't have. Frown I don't have my dad to ask for money so I was thinking as my grandparents to lend me some? I know they would but I feel kinda rude. There's Noooo Ivan get. Trust me I've tried! What do I do? My mom is way to special and amazing Andd does way too much for me and my siblings to get nothing for Christmas! PLEASE HELP<3 thanks Smile

Hey girl,

It's great that you want to get your mom a great gift, but a vacuum isn't stupid if that's what she wants! It will be really useful to her! Rather than asking your family for money, if you want to give her something extra, why not make her a gift like an ornament or a piece of jewelry? She will love that you took the time to make something and it won't cost you money.

I need help ASAP!I have NO idea what to get my boyfriend for Christmas! I don't have any brothers, so I don't have a clue. He loves the Pittsburg Steelers, and he is pretty athletic. I don't know what to get him! Any ideas? Oh, and I want it to be special.

Hey girl,

Don't freak out--I'm sure he'll love whatever you give him! If he loves the Steelers you could get him something small of that, or something that might remind him of an inside joke you two have. You could also always make something for him like an ornament. Check out these posts for tons of ideas on what to get your guy! http://www.girlslife.com/post/2011/11/28/What-should-I-get-my-BF-for-the-holidays.aspx http://www.girlslife.com/post/2010/11/09/present-for-my-crush.aspx http://www.girlslife.com/post/2008/12/05/Gift-Sitch.aspx http://www.girlslife.com/post/2012/12/07/5-thoughtful-gifts-guys-really-love.aspx

Okay, guys freaking about the price...it's called a "wishlist topper". They said, and I quote, "these may be too pricey, but a girl can dream, right?" They're not telling you you have to buy it, and theyre not really that expensive anyway.

by cheerfulcheer on 12/8/2012 7:20:12 PM

 
 

Um my parents would never buy dresses for me of that high of price! $110??? What. The. Fashion. GL, can you please put up clothes and make up we can afford?

by YouCanCallMeCat on 12/8/2012 2:33:06 PM

Only two or three of those are really "designer". And even those aren't like, Gucci, or something. Fifty may be more than some girls want to spend on a dress, but it's barely out of the Forever 21 range.

by puffinlover99 on 12/8/2012 11:16:24 AM

 
 

These are pretty cheap in my opinion... But thats just me i guess. I was expecting like Gucci, Jason Wu or something like that! Smile

by dojhallow97 on 12/8/2012 9:55:40 AM

 
 

This would be better if they also posted cheaper looks that were like these expensive designer dresses. Though I could never afford these for sure, they're very nice.

I have three more personal questions that I didn't want to ask my mom..
1. I just started middle school cheerleading and I have had my period for almost a year but never when I was cheering on the cheer team. I don't wear tampons because they COMPLETELY freak me out right now so I always use pads. I am nervous about having to do jumps and leg kicks in a short skirt. You wear your underwear and something that's like underwear on top so that when you kick nothing "shows". Will people still that I am wearing a pad?I am nervous!
2. My friend got her period like three months after mine and she never gets her period and if she does it's like for a day. She is very un regular. I got mine like eight or nine months ago and since August I get me period the day I should kinda heavy for a week! Is this normal to be regular already?
3. I get kinda these stomachaches when I have my period but they aren't near my lower abdomen. Are these cramps?

 

Hey girl, I think it's fine if you wear a pad. Definitely no one is looking down there, so I'd say you'd be fine. You should consider wearing a tampon because they are so much more comfortable and you can barely feel them! - Every body is different, I would say definitely it's okay to be regular already. - Yes, those are cramps!
