Honey

hi! i'm 17 and i don't have many friends. I'd say i've 3 friends i could properly talk to, and others are just school friends. I don't go out and the only time i'm not home is when i'm walking around town with my best friend. All the people in my year in school go out at least every 2 weeks and are always going on about it. I hate that i can't! It's not really that i don't want to go out, just that i'm afraid to. Whenever i'm at really social places i freeze up. I generally am a quiet person and i hate it. i try and syke myself up but then i just fail. I actually love social places, like weddings, but i'm always the observer than the person having fun! any advice how to change?? i'm going to college in september and i don't want to be the freak !

thanks :)

hi! I want to put up some videos on youtube but when i record them on my computer there's a delay when i try and put them up. The sound is faster than the picture. it's a mac so i haven't a clue how to fix it! any ideas?

thanks :)

hi! does anybody know the film where antonio banderas plays a criminal when he holds up a convenient store but everything goes wrong? :P it's driving me crazy!

thanks :D

hi! not sure if there's many people here that listen to irish traditional music, but, if so, know any fun irish songs i could play on the guitar for my practical? i can't think of any :) i'm singing as well, so know any? :)

thanks a million :D

hi! I'm 17, and there's this guy i kinda like. He's in my year, and in a few of my classes. He's really funny and sound, but i don't know how to talk to him. we've a lot in common, but i can't talk to him. All i hear him talking about to the guys is sports, i don't know what he says to the other girls. I'm pretty quiet so I don't really know how to talk to him :P

i know, it's a classic teenage problem that's being overused on this thing, but any advice? :)

thanks a million :)

hi! I'm 17 and a musician, and I'm really tempted to put some videos up on youtube! My music teacher says I can sing, and in tune, but I don't have a lot of confidence, but I really want to :P Would be seen as pathetic? I hear some people talking about youtube, and it's really negative. I'm just afraid of people from school finding out :L

any advice ? :)

hi! I'm 17 and i play guitar and piano, and i like singing. I have a music practical coming up in April, and we have to practice. There's a few people in my music class, and I'm afraid of them hearing me. I'm doing grade 8 on piano, so i'm not too bad at it, and I'm alright at the guitar, it's singing i'm afraid of. I can sing in tune and hold a note, but i get nervous playing in front of people. It's just the before-hand nerves that get to me, when I actually play and after I get a buzz :P any advice? :) thank you in advance :D

hi! I keep getting phone calls from my mobile phone network and it's really frustrating. In the past two days they rang me six times, but I hadn't been around to get the call. This happened during the summer and they were saying about how to get free internet, and I said I wasn't interested in it. Now i feel really ignorant because they act all nice, so I just say my battery is about to die. How do i stop them from ringing me?

thanks :)

hi! I'm 17 and i'm a girl. I hang around with a group of friends, about 8 of us, and...they're pretty dirty minded. Two of the girls have...gone all the way, and every day there's always a comment about that kinda stuff, you know? The other day one of those girls was saying she met a guy who was, "untainted" and they said it like there was something wrong with it. I feel like a loser, because I haven't even kissed a guy. I have a crush on this guy in school but I've no idea how to talk to him, because I'm really shy. He's a nice guy, and really funny and talks to everybody. All the girls are crazy about him and act so desperate, like staring at him constantly or talking about his "cuteness" really loud when he's around. It's weird!

I've no idea what to do. I feel so out of place.

any advice?

thanks :) :D

hi! Why would a thermistor be immersed in oil instead of water, in the experiment of finding resistance of a thermistor with its temperature?? :D

thank you :)

hi! I'm a 17 year old girl, and I've been playing the piano since i was about 5. I love playing it, and i've been doing grades. I'm currently doing the eighth grade, so I think i'm alright at it. I do music in school, and I'm actually really scared to perform. I want to be a performer (which is weird seeing as I nearly die thinking about performing in front of people in school). Today my friend in music asked me was i going to play it. I know F*** you by cee lo green on it, and it's okay. I was going to, but then i heard them! She and her sister both play the fiddle, but play irish traditional. They could play this one tune really well, and I just felt like i'd be inferior if i performed. What am i going to do?? I care a lot what people think, and that's whats holding me back from playing the piano :/

any advice? even to distract myself when I'm playing so i don't freak? :)

thank you :D :)

hi! I"m a 17 year old girl, and I'm really into music. I've one year left in school and I really want to do music after school, but I don't know what to do. I've a performance coming up for my music class, and I really want to sing for it. I've been thinking of putting videos up on youtube, but I'm afraid people from school will see them, or people think I'm crap. I just want to know what people think and see if I'm good enough to think of doing music after school.

any advice?

thanks :D

hi! I'm a 17 year old girl and I've a music audition for my end-of-year music class and I'm stuck for songs!! I'm playing classical pieces on the piano, but I want to show the examiner I can play other things too. I'm thinking of playing a tune on the guitar, (drifting by andy mckee) and I'm thinking of singing, but I can't think of any songs!! I was thinking of Forget You, by Cee-Lo Green? Anybody have any other songs I could sing? Any type, but I like fun songs to play!

thank you so much :)

hi! The chorus goes, "Tell me why are we, so blind to see, that the ones we hurt, are you and me?"

and the start of the verse is, "As i walk through the valley of death..."

it's rapped by a guy, and the chorus is sung by a guy too.

thank you :)

hi! I'm 17, and a girl, and...i haven't been kissed. I feel like such a loser! All my friends go out and get with guys, but I don't go out. I get mistaken for being 12, and my friends have fake ids so they get into the over 18 clubs and I've no chance. I'm a bit of a quiet, timid person, but I can be random around my friends. I'm starting to worry!! A few people have said I'm pretty, but they're my friends, so...does that count? :P my best friend is a year younger and she's got with loads of guys, and she called me frigid the other day. She didn't mean it as an insult, but it still got to me. I'm starting to worry that I'm going to end up like a 40 year old virgin with 100 cats and living in a box.

any advice?

thanks :)

I'm 17 and i get mistaken for 12 :/ :)

hi! I'm a 17 year old girl, and I haven't been kissed. I feel like such a loser around my friends, because they all talk about getting with so many guys, and two girls have gone further. Even my best friend told me yesterday about this guy she was with ages ago, and it really surprised me. I'm worried people think i'm frigit or something, or that I'm gay, because they never ask me. We were at a party and they were all discussing who they had gotten with, but never turned to me. I'm really shy, so I don't know if that was why, or if they suspected I hadn't gotten with somebody. Is it strange? I don't go out, usually I stay in and play music, because I play piano and guitar. I'm just not into the whole go-out-to-clubs scene, because some girls that go get drunk quickly and I wouldn't want to be spending the night worried about them.

Anyway, am I a proper loser?

thanks :D :)

hi! I'm 17, and a girl, and I feel like such a ...loser, really! I've never gone out with a guy, or been kissed, and all my friends have, one or two even getting further with them :/ anyway, i don't have many friends, because I'm really shy and I can't really trust people (long story). Is it strange not to be kissed? I live in a tiny village, far from anywhere, and the only guys that live there don't talk to me. I kinda thought this one guy liked me, because I kept seeing him staring at me, but he just got with my best friend's friend three days ago, so obviously not. I just feel like such a weirdo!

any advice? :P

thank you :)

hi! I'm a white girl, and I've always wanted to go to Hawaii! I'm only 17, but when I leave school I'd love to go to America, and then go to Hawaii. I've kinda heard though that some people in Hawaii don't like white people? Is that true? I've heard they called them "haoles" or something...is that the equivilent to the "n" word for black people?

I'm just really curious, because I don't want to be called something offensive :/

thanks :)
