I live in Europe and I have never really understood the entire American schooling system in general. What age do you start school? How many years long is Elementary school? What ages do you attend Middle school? What ages do you attend High school? And when do you finish school once and for all?

Also, what is this whole thing with scholarships to get into College that I always hear about?

Thanks :)

I am 16 years old and I really want to set myself a goal this Summer by doing some kind of Workout programme or challenge at home to make myself more fit and healthy.

I've checked out the Insanity Workout Challenge and Athlean X so far, but I was wondering what is the best workout programme/challenge, or whatever you'd call the two above, are for me to get a really nice beach body.

Something that has challenges, a website etc.

So any recommendations? Thanks.

I am thinking of ordering the Insanity Workout Challenge this Summer and trying it out. I am sixteen years old which makes me sceptical of whether or not I should try it, am I too young?

Does anyone have any experience with this programme? Does it really work?

And if not, what else would you suggest?

Thanks :)

I am looking for a new pair of really good earphones because my last ones broke :( They were a Samsung pair, really good. I can't find a pair like them though :/ So does anyone know a really good pair that are not TOO expensive that I could find at Argos or somewhere? I know I can just look but I never know whether they'll be good or not. I bough a pair of Skull Candy half price yesterday, thinking they'd be really good since they're Skull Candy, and they are CRAP! Really low grain sound that gives me a headache.

So what's the best HQ sound pair? Thanks :)

I would like to hear some tips on how I could possibly get penetrated without too much pain. I know there will always be pain, but I'd like to just ease tension, though I don't know how. Same for using dildos as practice. Thanks :]

At the moment I'm using Leo Bercon salon shampoo and conditioner but I don't think it's cruelty free, and I feel so guilty :( So are there any organic hair care brands that don't? Maybe one similar to the likes of Wen but cheaper? Thanks :)

Hello :) So I have a real affection for animals, and I was wondering do Clearasil test on animals/are any of their ingredients tested on animals for their face washes? I only use their gentle exfoliater which doesn't have many chemicals or anything so I'm hoping they don't.

And if they do, are there any other acne exfoliating washes similar that are 100% cruelty free?

Thanks <333

Hello :) I am a Gay teenager, and proud of it, and I was wondering how much do you guys think LGBT rights will proceed this year? I know last year was fantastic, all around the world pretty much. I am so proud, and my community makes me feel like I belong to something.

But how much will Gay rights increase in 2013? In terms of marriage, adoption, military service, anti-hate crime, human rights campaigns etc. I live in Europe, but really I mean all around the world, from America to Africa. What new rights are in store this year and will there be many advocates in politics or whatever for us. Thanks :D

I used MUA in deep black before, but it didn't stay on for very long, and wasn't very good :/

So now I don't know which one to get. What's the best brand? Preferable drugstore, not too pricey, and I just want a matte black pencil that doesn't run or smudge, and stays on all day.

Thank you ;)

Just today, a random girl messaged me on Twitter and gave me a link to an entire nasty hate blog about me. I didn't actually enter it because Chrome warned me it was dangerous and that they'd steal my password etc. So I chose not to proceed but what can I do about this?

Now these t-shirts aren't that old, I guess they're mostly from around 2006, but I can't get them anywhere any more. From bands such as Hawthorne Heights, Silverstein, Aiden, Underoath, and Eyes Set to Kill. I mean their older tees not the newer ones. Like the ones with the hearts and wings on them. Are there any UK sites? Thanks.

I love flowers, I think they're beautiful, and I want to know what each of the following stands for since I like to know the deepest meaning of everything.

1. Rose

2. Violet

3. Coronation

4. Sunflower

5. Hydranges (or however you spell it :/ )

So yeah those are the only ones I can think of right now off the top of my head. Please let me know what each one stands for. My personal favourite: Violets.

I adore the colour, the pettle, everything, they are a beautiful thing.

Thanks <3

As in are there many Gay rights in Germany? Is there fair representation? Low rate of Homophobia? Plenty of facilities for LGBT people? If so, which cities/regions?

Thanks.

So I'm a 16 year old boy, and lately I've been really depressed (as in it literally hurts to put on a fake smile) and I've been having severe emotional reactions to things that don't really effect me or my life at all. I just think really deeply about any bad things that happen in the world, and I get extremely sad and start crying. It's kinda weird, and uncontrollable. For example, last night a lost, super cute kitten showed up at our doorstep. It has been abandoned, it was hungry, cold, and even after we gave it to the animal rescue (although I really wanted to keep him) later on that night, a thought came to my head, of the lost kitten reminding me of myself when I moved school when I was younger. I mixed that with sad music, and I started sobbing my eyes out on the spot. I could not hold it in. But I just felt so sad it was unbelievable. Can someone please explain to me what this is and how I can deal with it? Or is it just that I've very sensitive? Thanks <3

Apparently these days around 60% of all YouTube commenters are gamers. Well, most of these gamers, are essentially just trolls, and on their channels it's half about gaming (Call of Duty, Fifa etc.) and half nasty hate comments under lots of videos, against any group of people, particularly Emos, and also Gays and Jews too. I got a comments that I don't even want to repeat from one of these gamers, about me being gay, and I have never read anything like it, and this guy was only 14 years old, from the UK. Oh and did I mention they NEVER put videos of themselves up, or even pictures. So what is it with these idiots, why is half of YouTube filled with them now and how can we get rid of them before it's too late? No hate cause you'll only be proving my point, thanks.

I've been wondering because I was in Dublin city a couple of weeks ago and I saw so many Hipsters.

I don't have anything against them, but I mean Dublin isn't very "Bohemian" which is what they usually look for, so why?

Now I don't live in America, I live in Europe so maybe I don't know entirely. But I do love to shop online at Hot Topic, and I've noticed this year in particular that they have changed quite a bit. The clothes aren't as "Hardcore" or whatever, it's not really as dark, and they are now selling One Direction merchandise. True story! I've also heard that over in the states, PREPPY kids shop their now?!

Seriously? My main question is why aren't they the same. They used to be all about Goth/Emo, now they're just like all the other shops. What happened?!

No hate, just answer the question thanks :D

I'm kinda worried because my Dad said we'll probably have to move to Germany quite soon for his work promotion, most likely Cologne or Frankfurt, and I don't really know what it's like because I've never been there. I'm 16 and still in school of course. My brothers won't be coming and I'll know absolutely nobody over there. I'm scared. Can someone who knows tell me what those two cities are like to live in for a teenager? What's secondary school over there like? What are the people like in general? Is there much crime or corruption? Please be honest I'm kinda worried about it. Thanks.
