  • Masquerade Mask Help for Prom?

    Our prom theme is a Midsummer Night's Masquerade and as a member of the prom committee, I have to dress with the theme in mind. I already have a dress picked out: http://www.thehomecomingdresses.com/sherri-hill-11...

    My shoes are classic pumps covered in small good glitter (they kinda look like fairy dust). I'm having a problem picking out a mask though. The dress is really ornate in person and I want it to be the focal point. Any mask ideas?

  • Dancing at Graduation Party?

    The venue where I'm having my high school graduation party has a dance floor. My mom thinks it's a good idea to hire a DJ and have everyone dance, but I'm concerned that no one would dance or it would seem to much like a wedding or school dance. Any thoughts? Is a dance floor normal at a graduation party?

  • Tampon safety while swimming?

    My period just started today and it's kinda heavy. I have a swimming party that I'm hosting later today, and I need a solution. There's a history of TSS in my family and one family member even died from it. I could wear a tampon, but I've never worn one before and I'm afraid of the risk of TSS. I would only be in for about 2 1/2 hours. Do you think it's safe to use given my family history?

  • Fishy Neighbor??????????????

    Hi,

    We've lived in our current house all my life. Our next door neighbor was taking care of his best friend. The neighbor then developed lung cancer, so the neighbor on the other side of our house who is incredably nosey was taking care of the best friend. Before the man died, he said out in the open to us that the neighbor coming over steals from his friend. The neighbor died, and now this random guy showed up. My parents went over and introduced themselves and he said his name was ed and he was living here forever. Ed keeps looking over the was into our yard and having very strange behavior i.e., he never wears a shirt. We haven't seen the friend of heard from her , so we are starting to get worried. On top of that, we were feeding some stray cats, and I haven't seen them science Ed moved in. We saw a dead bird in our yard and it looked like it had been poisened. We are thinking of calling the cops to do a "well check" or go over there ourselves and bring the friend a card. What do you think?

  • Scared that I will need surgery?

    Hi,

    I twisted my ankle at karate about 8 months ago. It never really fully healed, but then I twisted it again about 6 months ago. Now, I slid and twisted it again. There's a sharp pain when I point it down or go on the ball of my foot. It's better today, but I am scared that if I go to the er for an x-ray that I will need surgery. I broke my ankle last year, and the er doctor said that I might need a pin, but to check with my orthopedic doctor. The orto doc said that I won't need a pin but I will need a cast. I don't want the same thing to happen...

  • Mean Girl at Taekwondo??????

    Hi,

    There is a girl at my Taekwondo studio who is an angel one minute, and the meanest person in the earth the next. She kinda rules the school, so no one has the guts to speak up against her exept me. She makes me not want to go to class anymore.

    For instance:

    My karate instructor was in the bathroom, so he told her to teach class. She had the students do a kicking drill and was really nice. One kid didn't get what they were doing, so he ACCIDENTALY kicked her. She screamed " I'm going to kill you on Saturday Patrick!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" The poor kid was really scared. So, on saturday, she threw a kick at him and if he wasnt wearing head gear, he would have had a really bad concusion.

    I have told my parents and they have offered to do something, but my karate intructor wont listen.

    Any ideas?
