I'm 15 and i have mild acne - sometimes i'll get really prominent spots that stay on my face forever, but otherwise i'm generally fine. I want to dye my hair a really bright red - like gerard way in this picture: http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl=http://drink... - but i'm worried that it'll just make my acne even more prominent.

I have naturally brown hair, and dark blue eyes - will it work for me?

I am trying to access the double stroked line symbol on the top left button just above tab, but i don't know how you get them. I know that you press shift and hold to get the symbols on top of the key but i don't know how for on the side of the key so if you could tell me that'd be great :) xx

As in the adjective 'clever' magically transformed into a verb by adding 'ing' on the end. used in the capacity of 'clevering off'.

Please respond.

I called someone an idiot online and they said that they could file me for malicious contact. I don't think that's very fair seeing as they called me an 'egotistical, pedantic brat' which i think is much more insulting. Also the fact that i am 15 and they're 38 would mean that they'd more likely be on my side surely? And he doesn't know where i live so he can't call the law on me right?

please help me i'm worried.

Right, last year our school changed the forms we were all in, but we were allowed to write a list of people we wanted to be in our forms and an option for people we didn't want to be with. I had fallen out with my friend Rachael at the time and so we both put our name down on this list.

Then I was consequently put in a form with no one on my list (of people i wanted to be with), and instead with all the plastics.

So I asked the head of year if I would be allowed to move forms and she told me 'oh give it half a term'. So i did, and then nothing happened.

Now, me and Rachael have made friends, and we both want to swap forms. We need to come up with an argument to persuade them to let us swap, so we want advantages of letting us swap, and then disadvantages that the teacher might come up with, so that we can shoot them down with another advantage.

So far we have:

We both want to be in each other’s forms.

I am friends with everyone in ARP.

I don’t have any close friends in my form.

Rachael gets

I fell out with one of my best friends back in the summer over facebook. Let's call her 'Rachael'. What happened was that she asked me on chat to comment on some of her posts; for example, she had done a quiz about One Tree Hill, which I dislike intensely, and I wrote so. But we ended up having this fight about basketball (which she 'likes' and I don't - tbh, I think she 'likes' it because it gives her an excuse to watch HSM - blegh) and One Tree Hill, and the everlasting debate of 'Are small children cute?' (no). She was at another friend's house at the time, (let's say 'Becca'). Anyway, Rachael told Becca that she wasn't talking to me, and I was like 'Well sorry for having an opinion'. And we didn't speak all summer after that.

I disconnected her on facebook, and blocked her, because she just made me so angry (I just wish I hadn't done that now... ARGH!). Anyway, just before Christmas I thought, 'Well this is absolutely ridiculous', so I wrote her a letter and gave it to Becca to make sure she read it, and she did, but she sent me a note back saying she 'didn't think we could get past this milestone' or something similar. That lunchtime was the only time I've ever cried in school. My other friend (this is getting tedius - 'Carrie'), she talked to Rachael and apparently she said it was about the diary incident.

Now the diary incident is a bit hard to explain. Basically, we were on a school trip to the Battlefields of France and Belgium, me, Rachael, and Becca (and a loads of others too, but we're the main characters). I took my diary (because I was an intense writer), and she read it. We have never had the best relationship, and we had fallen out in February, (the trip was in April) and I had basically bitched about her. Everything, the fact that she's ginger, she sucks up to prefects (I think she fancies them - she practically stalks them). And I know it was mean and I shouldn't have done it, but sometimes it's just easy to think of everything that was wrong about someone, and pour it into a diary, and that's what I did. And she read it. The rest of the trip was hell with flourescent lighting, but that's ntp.

And then at a Christmas party at ...Becca's house (I never really realised how much she comes into this before writing this... wierd) we were playing truth or dare, would you ever/have you ever, I never, etc. and I was delegated position of researcher for the dares and truths and stuff. Gradually, everyone was drifting to sleep (mentally I was like NO! STAY AWAKE! I NEED YOU!), and as I'm an insomniac, I knew I would probably be last to sleep, first to rise. But I was hoping someone else would be the last to sleep, anyway, ntp. In the end I was just reading out truths to her, and she was replying. I didn't know how to act. And then, God help me, the laptop just died on me. and she sort of scooted over and tried to fix it and I was just mentally dying inside. She wasn't talking to me about the laptop, she was talking out loud about the laptop and I was the only one who could hear, if that makes sense? All Christmas I was hopeful, but afterwards, when we went back to school, she blanked me again.

Now before, we've never really talked about our arguments - we prefer to just leave them behind us. Well we did. But I've tried everything, and to those people who say 'just talk to her', I've tried, and she ignores me, that's why I wrote the letter. I don't want to batter my pride, because I am a proud person, and I know it, but I can't change it.

I don't know what to do...

I have had a crick in my neck for ages now (since well before Christmas) and when I lie down on my bed on my back, it hurts, like a twingey feeling. And today, when I woke up, I can't properly straighten my arms (like stretching), it hurts so much. Please tell me what's wrong with me, I can't stop thinking about rheumatism and arthritis and stuff... please no nasty and unnecessary comments.

For a while now, I have had a constant crick in the back of my neck (by 'for a while now', I mean since well before Christmas), and my back hurts when I lie down in my bed with two pillows. But today, I can't properly straighten my arms (like when stretching), because it hurts, as if I am pulling them too hard or something... But yesterday I was fine. I am only fourteen and I am worried about having some kind of weird rheumatism or arthritis disease. Please no rude comments or anything.
