I'm nineteen, I've been on birth control for a straight two weeks as directed by the doctor, and we've been using condoms, but today we went raw just to see what it feels like without the condoms. We both planned for him not the ejaculate (so he didn't, he only tried to see what it's like and then we stopped quite quickly after) and I wiped off any pre-*** beforehand, is there any chance I could be pregnant or should I take the morning after pill just in case?

If I were to take the morning after pill, will it affect the birth control pills that I am taking in any bad ways?

Okay, so I have a small dog, she's a Shih Pooh, a mix of Shih Tzu and Poodle. She has always been a bit more on the aggressive side, having a lot of energy, and always chewing up our furniture or chewing something she isn't supposed to. She's also hard to train and very stubborn. Lately, I've noticed (actually about a year ago) that she had a strange interest in birds. I took her to walk around in the pet store once where she would not stop watching the birds in cages. If they started flying she would get all excited and her tail wagged. I thought she wanted birdy friends (lol) so I laughed it off but then I noticed that when I let her out in the backyard (or even if she was looking outside from the inside) she would kind of 'jump' as soon as a bird flew by.

My mom started to tell me about how my dog has always been chasing after birds outside (Most times I'm at school when this happens or outside of my house), and then there were stories about how she has attempted to bite at birds too.

Today there was a dead baby rabbit on our lawn, chewed up by my dog, and it was absolutely revolting.

So everyone in my family decided that we now have a hunting dog. And I don't really want her to be a hunting dog because I don't want to keep finding dead animals on our lawns, especially cute baby rabbits :( I don't want my dog to take the fresh lives of other animals!

Is there a way to stop her or change her from becoming a hunting dog or is this irreversible?

I really hope something can be done to change her behaviour!

It started two days ago, I started to see this weird floating black spot in my field of vision, more specifically in my right eye, and I'm not sure what it is.

I tried researching on this, and everyone is saying different things. If so, I'd like to avoid consulting the doctors as it involves having to tell my parents and I'd rather not get them worried since they tend to take things over-the-top in terms of my health.

I don't know if it has anything to do with this, but it appeared right after I finished playing a game and I read somewhere that it might have something to do with being epidemic and though I'm not too quite sure what it means, I want to be sure and take precautions in case that I am.

There were other answers such as 'stress' and 'drugs' and I've only ever done a bad drug once in my life and have never done it again so I hope it's not that. It's true that I'm stressed but I don't believe that's it either.

They're supposed to be called 'floaters' or 'black spots' but I only see one black spot and sometimes it seems round, but if I move my eyes, other times it looks like several little dots in a line. I don't know whether it's dead cells either.

Some people are saying they've had them for a year but it's getting really annoying.

Here are the questions:

Are these 'floaters' that I'm having? Or are they something else?

Should I wait until it goes away or is it so serious that I have to consult my doctor for it?

I thank you in advance for any help, advice and answers to this question and I really appreciate it.

Okay, so here's the gist:

I have naturally medium brown hair but a year ago I bleached my hair blonde.

Now this year, I finally decided to go ahead and dye it blue and it actually looked pretty cool.

Thing is, I re-bleached my hair (to cover the growing roots) and it turned a faint greenish colour. The green-blue is only slightly apparent so it's not a big deal for me but...

I want to go on top of that with more blue, but I want to get rid of the blue colour before my next hair bleach which will be sometime in December. I will definitely be dying it within an hour, but I just want to know if I can somehow use a toner to get rid of the blue colour once it starts fading so that when I go on top of it with bleach, it will come off completely.

For anyone that has any hair advice on how to gradually get the blue dye out of your hair, whether it's just washing it with certain shampoo/conditioner or using hair products, please let me know!

Thank you in advance for all your answers, I really appreciate it. (:

My story is going to sound probably really silly, but call it being a teenager.

Basically, I've never really had much of... 'freedom'. My parents rarely let me out to have fun, and I used to sneak out and was rebellious until they caught me skipping once which led to this huge thing that I won't go into details about.

Even now, I'm seventeen and almost eighteen and they don't let me out anywhere. I feel like such a child, but I don't know if it's because I am a child that they're not letting me out, or because I became a child because they're not letting me out. Today, I wanted to buy a game, and it was as simple as that, it was just released today and I wanted to go to the mall after school quickly and come straight home after getting it, but of course they don't even let me do that. Because of it, I got a bit irritated but I wanted to get this game by myself to make it feel more like I bought it, since my mother also plays it and she wanted me to get it to join her, but when she told me that my dad can buy it for me while I'm friggin stuck in the house, it made me feel more like she just wanted me to get it because of her own selfish reasons and not because I wanted to play it. It didn't feel... right. And I don't like the fact that I ended up having to rely on someone when I could have just easily gone and get it myself, I know all the bus routes perfectly well from when I skipped school a lot and snuck out.

But should I have just accepted it again like usual and accumulate in irritation?

I tried to explain to her why I was irritated but it got worse. :(

I don't know what the good way would be. I just want to get away from always relying on my parents, they still give me allowance and won't take 'don't give me allowance anymore' for an answer. They never let me out... I have three upcoming parties I would like to go to and I do NOT want to lie AT ALL to attend them but I feel like I will end up resorting to just that. The only time I skipped in grade twelve(two weeks ago), made me end up feeling incredibly guilty... and I don't want that again.

I just don't know if I should just give in and accept it all once again, but the irritation really keeps building up, or should I just leave it as it is?

I feel bad but I don't know what to do.

I also want to know how to get rid of this constant pent up of anger and irritation? Should I take yoga classes or ask my parents if I can have a therapist again? (but they'll end up paying for me again and that would mean letting them know I have a depression problem...)

Thank you for anyone who responds, I just don't know who else to turn to, I don't want to talk to my friends about it and worry them and my family right now is definitely not a good idea to tell this too, they wouldn't understand and I can't express myself very well...

Please tell me what I should do, or how I should act?

Thank you...

Please help and if you can provide explanations, that would be great. :)

Okay, these logs are all in base 8:

-log(x-2) = 1-log(x^2 - 4)

I realized that I have to make the equation equal to zero, but I just can't really work anything when I do that. Please help, it would be greatly appreciated and also if you could explain it. Thank you in advance!

I have these moths in my room all the time, and I don't know what kind of moths they are, but they are small, and brown and they aren't attracted to my clothes, and they are attracted to my ceiling. Not the lights. The ceiling. I can always find them on the ceiling. In the corner. Makes me regret vacuuming the spider webs.

Anyway, please help me, I don't want anymore moth graveyards on my ceiling, they're staining it! This is the sixth one I've found last night!

Please and thanks in advance.

Okay, so I was introduced to this guy two years older then me (he's nineteen) by my friend and they came over last night, chilling in my backyard. We had fun together, and my friend says he likes me, and I am interested in him as well.

So, he was texting me and asked me to hang out with him on Wednesday (so a date)... but I didn't really realize it was a date until my friend said it was just us two.

Originally, I was gonna have 'them' come over and chill in the daytime and go for a walk or something...(my parents would not know) but if it's a date then that might be weird. :S

So instead, would it be better if we go to the movies instead (my parents would know)?

Or are there better activities?

Should I make it a group thing after all?

I have never dated seriously in my life before, and I've never been interested in romance until this year. :S

OKAY, I'm having a bit of a love crisis. >.<

One's two years older then me (19) and one's two years younger then me(15).

I met the younger one because he's the little brother of my friend and he was really sweet and cute-like and he was hilarious. Also, we were kinda playing games together before. Every now and then, he tells my friend to tell me 'hi' and we get along well. It was really fun being with him, but the problem is that he's... well, young. >.>

The older one was introduced to me by a friend and a group of them came to my house tonight and I got to know him better... and well now I'm interested in him too. :S He already made plans with me on Wednesday(just us two, so a date), and my friend said that he likes me. The only problem is that... well, I don't know how I feel about going after an older guy?

So, I probably have more chance with the older guy, but I don't know if I'll be able to forget about the younger one?

What should I do?

I think the older one might end up asking me out, but should I go out with him with the feelings that I have and try to forget about the younger guy, or should I wait to give him an answer(cuz he knows I'm interested)?

And, which one should I even go for? :S

Thank you for taking the time to read everything and answer, I really appreciate it!

Okay, well I'm normally shy, and I'm used to seeing him in school in the mornings and we're always in a group, talking. He's the little brother of one of my best friends. At first, I didn't even consider liking him because he's younger than me by two years.

Well that changed.

I went to my friend's birthday party, and he was so sweet and he was protecting me and he was hilarious. We were all playing games together and having fun and he was being silly but in a sorta cute way. I couldn't help but grow slightly interested, but because it's summer, I don't really have a chance to see him much.

His sister often tells me that he says hi whenever she's texting me, or when we're playing online games together. I can't help but be slightly interested and I might be able to get closer to him if I buy this one online game that he plays and level up then team up with them.

My cousin said that guys at the age of 14/15 are changing constantly so I shouldn't like him.

Should I be interested in a younger guy? >.<

During the 3rd full moon of the game, when you have to fight the Hierophant boss persona, and after checking the mirror after defeating it, you're sent to another room where you have to make certain choices in order to clear your mind.

Of course, I made the choices to not give in to temptation, but I was REALLY curious as to what happens if you do give in to temptation, because it would be hilarious to see that, considering it was hilarious enough when you didn't give in to it.

Did anyone try to give in to the temptation? If so, what would happen? (like... is it game over, or are you slapped back to reality anyway?) I didn't want to fight the shadow again because it would take too long, so I was just wondering. :)

I'm really curious about it. XD
