pia.

The lyrics go: "You pick me up, knock me down, mess me up..." Something something something.

I've heard it on the radio a lot on pop/modern music stations. It's a woman singing and there is a pop beat to it.

I have no idea who it is by and I don't even know if those are the right lyrics...Please help :)

So today I was really craving chicken and dumplings and because I am a lazy college student I decided I would go to the grocery store and just buy a can of Campbell's Chicken & Dumpling soup. I got home and was surprised when I opened the can to find that the chicken and dumplings were in a creamy sauce (much like you would find with soup like Clam Chowder or Cream of Potato).

I was expecting the chicken and dumplings to be in more of a chicken broth (like you'd find in Chicken Noodle Soup). My grandmother always made her chicken and dumplings in more of a broth than a cream and that's the only way I've ever had it. The cream sauce was alright, but I really prefer the broth.

Does anyone have any killer recipe's for Chicken & Dumplings that is prepared in a broth? Any recipes for the dumplings would be great too!

Thanks :)

Ok, so I have long curly/wavy hair. Most of the time I either wear it straight or I curl just the ends if I want my hair a little shorter that day.

I use a lot of heat on my hair (blow drying, straightening, curling) and one of my friends told me about overnight leave in rollers that will curl you hair and require no heat.

I was wondering what the best kind of rollers are if you want to take a shower, towel dry your hair, and put it in rollers to be taken out the next morning.

What are the best/worst kinds of leave in hair rollers?

Are there any rollers that you can do this with (towel dry and place rollers) or do you have to shower and blow dry your hair before you place the rollers in over night?

What is the best way to use overnight rollers? Do you recommend them?

Thanks!

So I've heard a lot about getting your tongue pierced...Some say it hurts a lot and some say it just feels like a little pinch. I've also heard about multiple ways to numb your tongue before getting it pierced.

I was wondering what the best method is to numb it (if necessary) and what I should expect as to pain during and after the piercing (please describe the pain and rate it on a scale of 1-10...10 being the most painful).

Any other advice would be awesome!

Thanks!

I think they're really cute and I've seen a few people with them. The only problem is that I have no idea what they're called!

I don't even know where to begin with this whole debacle. My boyfriend and I have been together for just about a year and a half. We started dating when we were both 16 and now he's almost 18 and I'm seventeen. We're both high school seniors. I plan on going to college here (In Washington State) and he has enlisted in the Marines. For a little background, we aren't bad kids. My boyfriend is very anti drugs, anti parties, anti anything illegal. To be quite honest, we're a pretty boring couple. We rent movies, go to dinner, sometimes I come over to help him clean his room and do his laundry. His mother is in her late 40's and his step-dad is in his late 60's. My boyfriend and I both assume that they're rather traditional, so we don't touch around them. No hugging, no holding hands, nothing. We don't want to upset them, you know? We're trying to be courteous.

My boyfriend's MOTHER is an entirely different story. She is completely crazy and I dislike her so much. I'm pretty sure she hates me too. When my boyfriend and I first started dating I was rather quite around her, I wanted to get a feel as to who she was and her beliefs and how she acted. It started out with her just making little comments like "Oh! You eat like a bird!" which made me self concious because I don't have a great self body image.

When my boyfriend and I started having a physical relationship, he told her because he wanted to be open and honest with her (he thought it was respectful and the right thing to do). Both of my parents also know that we have a sexual relationship and are fine with it.

Lately, my boyfriend's parents haven't been letting us stay home alone together. They go out to eat a lot and sometimes my boyfriend and I would rather eat at home and in front of me his mother seems fine with this, but as soon as she is alone with my boyfriend she lets off about how we HAVE TO go to dinner with them or we have to be out of the house while they're out of the house. I don't really understand what she expects us to do? Go drive around for 3 hours while they go out to dinner?

Lately, it has gotten a lot worse. She's gotten really competitive with me and doesn't let my boyfriend come see me or allow me to come over. She compares the length of her hair to mine, our weight, she even compares her mothering skills to my mother (and they've never even met!)

My boyfriend goes to boot camp soon so we're trying to make the best of the time we have left together, but she constantly bands us from seeing each other, or says he has to be home by 5pm on a Saturday night! (We live an hour away from each other in separate states, he lives in Oregon and I live in Washington...So 5pm is pretty inconvenient)

I honestly don't know what to do. I've told him that he should try and have a civil conversation with her about our relationship or try and arrange a meeting with all 3 of us. I'm trying to be mature and find a solution for this rather than being defiant and asking my boyfriend to choose between me or his mother. Honestly, if it did come down to a decision like that, I would want him to choose his mother!

I've tried to be nice to this woman. I ask her for recipes all the time, tell her I love her cooking, watch TV shows with her that we both like, I do beading projects with her, I got her a birthday present.

I don't know what else to do to make her like me.

Her catty comments and ridiculous restrictions on her son is driving me crazy!! I understand that we've both underage, but we only ask to see each other 2 days a week! Friday after school and Saturday, Sunday we take the day to relax, do homework, and spend time with our families.

We live in different states, go to different schools, see each other 2 days a week at the best and his mother puts these stupid stupid rules on him like we can't be home alone, EVER, and he has to be home super early when he's at my house and I'm not allowed to be at his house past 9pm.

I don't understand what she's trying to achieve here, advice?

So, currently I have dark brown hair with an auburn color over it and I want to go to blonde. Not white blonde, but a natural looking blonde. Some people recommended to me that I use some kind of hair stripping stuff...They said that it takes all the hair dye out of your hair.

What brand of that should I use?

Also, how well does it work? Naturally I have pretty light brown hair so if the stuff can take all the color out, I assume getting to blonde shouldn't be too hard.

I plan on getting the full blonde done professionally, but I think I can handle getting all the color out on my own, right?

Suggestions are appreciated! :)

Last week I went to the Jason Derulo concert and Auburn was touring with him. She sang a song where the chorus went:

"Because I'm all about him, him, him, him, him

and he's all about me, me, me, me,me

and we don't give a (something), (something), (something)

about nobod e, e, e,e."

What's the name of this song??

In about 11 months (yes, I realize almost a year) my boyfriend will be sent to boot camp in southern California. I know it's only 3 months but I also realize that now that he's enlisted, we will be spending more and more time apart.

What I'm looking for is advice on how to help with the distance that will be between us. How to keep the relationship strong while he's away. I really want to be a supportive girlfriend to him while he's serving the country. The circumstances are these:

I live in Washington, he lives in Oregon. We live about an hour away from each other. We are both (new) high school seniors (we don't go to the same school, if anyone is wondering). During the school year we see each other once every weekend or every other weekend, so we're not together all the time and we've learned to deal with that by using e-mail, text, and talking on the phone a lot. I'm pretty sure during boot camp all I can write is letters, which is totally fine because as is we write little notes back and forth. After he leave I'll be attending Washington State University, so I'll be busy with school and such (someone told me keeping yourself occupied helps. Is this correct?)

But what I want to know is how can I be helpful to him in boot camp when all I can send is letters? What can I do now that will help me cope with him being gone?

Any advice what-so-ever would be great! Especially from someone who has experienced this before!

I am seriously craving some new music! I like a little bit of everything (except Country) and I am in the market for some new downloads.

Normally, I listen to a lot of indie bands. I like acoustic/alternative/rock/indie stuff.

Right now my favourite bands are:

Band of Horses

Vampire Weekend

Passion Pit

Relient K

Shout Out Louds

Badly Drawn Boy

MGMT

Starfucker

The Virgins

and The Magnetic Fields

What are some other bands/songs that I would like?

I am also in the market for some cute acoustic love songs. Anyone in a relationship have a special song that they relate to their boyfriend/girlfriend that they'd be willing to share?

I need to write an anti war poem on Vietnam for my history class but I can't get any creative juices flowing.

It only needs to be about a page long and I just need some phrases I can work with.

Someone want to give me some ideas?

I have a BMW and when I bought it there was no stereo.

I really just want one with an AUX thing.

I am so automotive-ly retarded so I just need like...A type I can search for when I go to the audio store.

I have no idea what would work in my car.

Please help!

I have this really dark ugly mole on my face and I absolutely HATE it. I am finally getting it removed because I just cannot stand it anymore but in the time being what is a good brand of cover up I should get so that I can make it look less noticeable??

I need a really cheap place to buy my books. I'm in high school and tuiton is 10,000 a year so I need a REALLY good price on books. I've heard of like...pagebypage.com or something but I want to know of some legit sites where I can buy books. Thanks!

I changed my myspace profile to 2.0 an I hate it! How can I change it back to 1.0?! Is there anyway? I tried going to "go back to 1.0" but it just went to the plain 2.0 profile.

I'm already getting this sun & moon designed tattoo but I was looking and I really like the idea of getting an archer (like Artemis) or something on my back on my shoulder blade. I think it would look really cool. Greek mythology has also always been a thing of mine. Any idea of any sites where I could just browse some cool tattoos or any pictures of cool archer tattoos that I should check out?

I like the names: Evelyn, Genevieve, Jane, Vivian, Josephine, and Vera for girls and Jack, Atticus, Mason, and Mortimer for boys. What other names would I like if I like these ones?

Now that I have hidden the orange bars and words on my MySpace there is still a problem! A huge space at the top of my profile where there is just nothing. How do I eliminate that? I also don't have my blog showing or my status extended network thing going so now there is just....dead space. How can I fix that?

I am only 15 so I can't get a job as a cashier or anything yet but I have been working in my mom's office since I was 10 and the one skill I do have is that I can type REALLY fast and I am really good at data entry. I am looking for a job in that field. Something I can do online from home and get paid for! I don't care how much money! I just need to be earning something.

Anybody hiring? :)

So i downloaded a font, how do i get to use it?
