  • been sick for 5 days and already went to the doctor...?

    i started to feel my throat scratchy monday night, then throughout the night as i slept, i started to get a really high fever. so, my mom let me miss school. the fever on tuesday was accompanied by sore throat, headache, congestion, and aching of the body. this went on till wednesday where i missed school again. then yesterday, (thursday) i went to the doctor to see what was up and she told me that she wasn't gonna prescribe antibiotics to me. i mean i thought it was the flu at first but i don't think flus last for 5 days! i woke up today with a cough. i'm not really sure how to make myself better-- i've already missed like a week of school and i can't afford to miss any more. i plan on going back to school on monday so i have the weekend to get better. any recommendations ? over the counter medications ? i've alternated between tynenol and motrin for fever and dayquil/nyquil for the sore throat, congestion, headache, etc. i also know to get rest and drink lots of fluids. i've been doing that.

  • My boyfriend has the potential to do well in school but he doesn't apply himself.?

    as stated above, he's really smart. he had just recently joined the gifted/magnet program at my school after taking regular classes his whole life, so it was kind of a shock for him when he got into this program- seeing the tremendous amount of work and difficulty of the classes. it's a big step up. i understand that. however, after being in the program for a semester, he still doesn't want to put forth the effort. he's really intellectual, he just doesn't show his full potential and apply himself in school. i want to send him a message that would- oh i don't know, maybe inspire him to give 100% in all his work. i really want him to do well. any suggestions on what i should say?

  • how to help with the aching?

    i started p90x yesterday. im 14 years old and 136 pounds so im trying hard to lose my tummy fat mainly and my curves are totally out of control. im trying to not feel discouraged because i couldnt keep up with the trainors in the video...but they are fit and in shape and ive only been doing p90x for 2 days. so, again im trying to not feel bad since i couldnt do some of the exercises and keep up. although, i have tried my best to do what i can. and my body ACHES! all over. my arms, my chest, my sides, my abs, my thighs, my calves. everything aches. i cant even get up it hurts so bad. i know that i should suck it up since i just started working out, but i just wanted to know if you guys know what helps with the aching and soreness.

  • i'm 14, would p90x work for me?

    i didn't buy the workout program from the tv offer. i'm downloading it online, and it's taking forever but i don't have 200 bucks to spend on this program. anyways, i'm not obese for starters. i am overweight, though. i'm 14, 5'1, and i weigh 136 pounds. i know i shoulda accept my body the way it is, but my self esteem has lowered a bit because of my body. i couldnt fit into half of the clothes that i tried on when i went to the mall on friday, and it was embarrasing because i had a group of friends come with me. i have no exercise equipment except two 6 pound dumbells. and my mom isnt planning on buying anything. i want to eat healthy, but i'm indian, and the food we make involves a lot of rice, which can obviously store up as fat. i just want my goal weight to be about 120 pounds, so 15-16 pounds is all i want to lose. i am a gifted student, so i might have to cut the workouts in half each day because of all the schoolwork i have. i basically want to lose about 15-20 pounds by june, so in about 2 months. i don't plan on using the nutrition guide, either. i know if i want it to work, i have to follow it exactly. but i don't want to be super duper skinny like the people on the p90x commercials. so would this work for me?

  • best shampoo+conditioner for oily, black hair?

    i have used pantene, head and shoulders, garnier fructis, suave, and herbal essences and none of them seem to work. i take a shower every other day and my hair gets oily the next morning... and i take showers at night. my hair is thick after a shower and i have naturally black hair. i often like to straighten my hair once or twice a week and blow dry it maybe once a week. i have been trying to cut down on the heat i put on my hair- not sure if that plays a part into making my hair oily so quickly. i know i have split ends and my hair is semi-long it goes right below the shoulders and i dont plan on getting a haircut anytime soon. i'm just looking for a good 2 in 1 shampoo+conditioner to use that at least leaves moisture in my hair for 2 days instead of oil. i don't want to make my hair any thinner because it has already become thin since i have been using my straightener...but i don't want it fully volumized either. what would you suggest? i'm 14 by the way.

  • height discrimination not right!?

    ok so i tried out for the jv team. and i admit i am pretty short, 5'2. i didnt make the cut and my mom was so surprised so was i! i am like the best setter nd server nd i thought i did my best yesterdy- i was literally on fire. then my mom called the coaches and they said i didnt make it cause i was short!!! if they had a problem with my height, my bakrow passing isnt bad either! i understand i cant block in the front row n all as to bein a setter, but then i feel so stupid cause my family has wasted their money and i have wasted my time for a team tht bases you on your height.if i had known that, i wouldnt have started playing at all. and last year, tey had no problem taking me n forthe middle school team. i was the shortest one there, but there were girls who didnt even play at all and just started this summer- they made the cut. they havnteven seen a vball and they are prolly gonna make the team. i have been playing vball for 2 years and i feel its not fair. my mom said some very bad things to the coaches because she knows i am a really good player nd i have so much team spirit. and there were girls who just showed up to tryouts yesterday when they started like 3 days ago! thts not fair to everyone else who has bee so sore from tryouts. that they just showed up and made the cut. i dont kno if i wanna play for a team like that who is so concerned about height. cause i cant do anything to change my height!! i wanna continue playing vball but club is just too expensive for us and my high school team didnt take me cause im short. do u think this is fair? what should i do?

  • havent played volleyball for awhile..?

    ok so i was on the team last season nd i havent played vball since october. well i wana make the team this fall so yesterday i went to the vball gym to play and i felt like i lost some of my skill from when i played last year. i was a setter nd my setting was way off, my serves were out of the court, nd my passing was not right.i made a club team, but my mom thought it was a waste of money so i didnt play since then. ever since yesterday my body has been aching so much i cant move my shoulder my chest hurts when i breathe, my thighs feel like crap and my muscles are so sore. is it because i havent played for awhile? i mean practice yesterday wasnt as rigorous as my practices back in the fall; we barely did any drills! so is this normal to feel like crap just after one practice?

  • Club volleyball helppp!!!!!?

    My parents keep leturing me that I can't tryout for any more club because they've already spent 70 bucks on te tryout fees for 2 clubs I tried out for. The thing is that the first club I tried out for- The head coach was my assistant coach for my team this season and she did not like me at all! She never let me play nor never talked to me. I've heard that this is a good club but it's 1.8 thousand for one season! My mom said she's not gonna pay that much. Then, the second club I tried out for- The tryouts were 2 days ago and they weren't organized at all! One of the coaches also started to get on my nerves and I've heard that this is an ok club, it's not as good as the first club I tried out for. This cost is around 1.6 thousand.

    See I want to tryout for another club to see if I can get things cheaper, but my mom refuses to take me! And the tryouts are today! I've already went online and submitted my registration form. I've talked to JV players (btw I'm in the 14s group) and they said that there is this good club and tryouts are today.

    For the first club, theyve already decided half the team and I'm becoming intimidated because the coaches (including the head coach who doesnt like me) said that the 6 they pick are the people that they know they want on the court all the time. If I get picked, I will barely play! So you know I'm caught....Idk what to do! I love volleyball so much but there are so many obstacles in the way of letting me play this season as to I'm preparing for JV or varsity next year (my parents,the coaches, the fees, and the distance from here its like 20 miles!)

  • club or personal training?

    im an 8th grade S/DS on my team and my mom is killing me about making varsity next year. she wants me to make it straight on to varsity and skip jv. thats possible because in the last 2 years, two freshmen made varsity. one really good setter and one tall tall tall MH/B. the problem is that if the 9th grade setter remains at the same school, she'll be setter throughout her whole high school year because shes really good at it. i am too, but my coach never realizes it. anyways, my mom wants me to take a few private lessons from an assistant coach that taught our varsity team last year (doesnt anymore i dont think) but i wanna play club vball. i want to make some team that i can play year round so that im up to date with my skills and the freshman played club vball too. what do you think would be best? i mean i will also try to take a camp and go to sessions too but which will help the most; private lessons or club? i wanna try out for 2-3 clubs so i can make atleast one and if i make more than 1, choose the one i think is best.
