I just turned thirteen about a month ago, and I've lived in America for about 8 years, but I still have my korean name... which is Young.

I really despise my name because all of my other Korean or Asian friends have English names. My American friends say that It would be weird to call me any other name than "Young", but I really want to have an English name!!

So if I change my name, I want to change it to like Michelle, but I have no idea WHEN I should change my name, since I'm already in like middle school, and everyone knows me as "Young".

So I'm debating, should I actually go through all the trouble to change my name? And if I should, when should I change it?

I have about three small goldfish in an about 2 gallon fishbowl, and the tank's about 8 inch long, 5 inches wide, and 8 inches tall. (not completely accurate, I used my fingers to measure)

The guy at the pet store said that it could hold about 2 or 3 goldfish, but from what I've read on Google, it seems like I have to get a 30 gallon fish tank for those tiny little fish??

I don't really know how to take care of a fish, but I seriously don't think its right to spend money to buy a fish tank that your goldfish will barely take only a tenth of. But I know I'm supposed to.. (i guess)

And how many times do I have to change their water? I bought this water conditioner thing that makes the water safe for the fish or something and I was wondering if I also have to buy like a filter and stuff like that for a bowl?

Thanks a lot and please dont be mean, I got the goldfish for my 13th birthday yesterday and I JUST ran out to the store with my mom to buy food and a bowl for them.

My cat brought a live mouse into the house, and I have an insane soft spot for animals, even mice. It started sqeuaking and trying to run away and it almost did but then my yorkie went up and tried to carry it like my cat did. I grabbed my dog and he let go, but the mouse was laying there upside down, wet with dog drool and moving its arms around wildly. And then it stopped moving. I wrapped it in a paper towel and I didn't know if i should bury it or something because the body was still warm and i was so sad cuz i didn't want to bury it alive. I put it in a bush and Im going to check on it tomorrow morning.

So my main question is, did the mouse die or is there a possibility that it was just frozen from shock from the dog attack and will retore back to normal later?

please answer!! I feel so bad for the little mouse

When I was little, i had this small little bright orange desk that was like really small and cute. Problem is, my room is blue now, and blue with a bright orange desk doesnt really fit in. So I was wondering if it was possible for me to paint the desk with black aerosol paint (spray paint) so we don't have to waste money on another small table. Help?

My room doesnt have curtains right now, and I'm trying to look for the right one, which is kinda hard to do when I can't find one with the right size. I have two windows in my room. One is 140 cm long and 95 cm wide. Another one is big, its 125 cm long and about 183 wide. I looked on the IKEA website and everything but I seriously CANNOT find a curtain that matches the window size. HELP MEEE!!

I had surgery on my canine tooth yesterday, and they put a lot of numbing in my mouth like in the gum and roof and then 2 hours later, after the surgery, being a tweleve year old kid, I quickly searched around with my tongue and found a huge lump or bump or whatever on the roof of my mouth. Thinking it was probably the numbing that hasnt worn off yet, I let it go, thanked my dentist and left with my dad. Then the night passed and the next morning, its STILL THERE!!

I was seriously freaked out so I searched on the internet and it said that it could be because of an infection...but I don't see how that could have happened...

HELP ME PLEASE

I have a Cyberhomoe CH-DVD300 dvd player and I don't have the remote for it. Is there a way to set it up on my universal remote (which btw is a Sony RM-VL600) without having the original remote?

When this first started happening to me, I thought it was just cuz of puberty and whatever, but then I heard that only happens to guys (im a girl)....should I be worried and get my voice checked or...what?

My yorkshire terrier is about 7 years old. I have him and another dog who is a girl. The girl is spayed, but my boy isn't. I was really little when we got him, so we didn't get him neutered then, and I didn't think much of his behaviors like humping his toy and stuff, but now he just stares at the girl dog and whimpering and stuff. So I think it's best to get him neutered. All I'm wondering is if it will affect his health in anyway since he's way past the recommended age. Help!

I haven't been on an airplane in 8 years, and I was 4 years old at that time, so how am i supposed to know anything, but anyway, I dont know what kind of things are supposed to go through the x ray machine at the airport. I know there's your cell phone, your keys, iPod, shoes, belt, but WHAT ELSE!!!

I asked my parents what my name meant, but they said something and I didn't really understand. So I wanna know if it even means anything. Please, I wanna know really bad.
