I never thought I'd be interested in Sheffield Uni, but I visited the campus recently, and it's absolutely beautiful and the students seem very happy there.

I was just wondering how selective the admission process is. I'm unsure about what I plan on studying, but journalism has been on my mind lately.

Thank you!

So, I absolutely love writing. But I know that an English or creative writing major wont serve me too well in life, and writers don't typically become very successful. So I talked to a guidance counselor and she suggested that I consider journalism.

The more I thought about it, the more I liked it. It involves writing and creativity, but is more stable than being a freelance author. But the second I told my parents, they disapproved. They say that it is a really unstable career. I'm very aware that journalists don't make that much money, but I can honestly say that as much as I care about being financially stable, I don't care about a big salary that much.

My father keeps trying to convince me to go into the medical field, but I can honestly say it does not interest me at all. My mom says I'd be a good lawyer, but I can't imagine putting myself through that much school.

Is journalism a bad major? If so, what are some career ideas that are somewhat similar?

I just heard somewhere that Nero was possibly homosexual. I'm writing a report on him and I'm just curious. Please no homophobic answers! Thanks :)

So I'm 15, 5' 6, and 120 lbs. Yesterday I woke up and noticed my boobs were huge. I haven't measured them yet but I know for sure they weren't this big last week. I just want to know why would they suddenly just grow? Also, is there any possible way of making them smaller? I don't mean like wearing two sports bras, but I mean naturally reducing their size. My body looks kind of disproportionate and I feel uncomfortable walking around with big boobs.

I'm in love with this guy, but he's a junior and I'm a freshman. I'm pretty sure he likes me, and I want to go for it, but I'm scared he might be embarrassed because he's two years older than me.

So, I've liked this guy for moths now. I would obsess about him. It would literally take over my mind, and I couldn't think about anything else. I even had a few dreams with him. But I just found out he's into someone else and doesn't like me back. It broke my heart, and I want to move on. But I can't stop thinking about him, and the more I think, the more it hurts because he doesn't like me back. How do I get him out of my mind?

I'm trying to keep my guy interested. What can I do to keep him coming? Cosmo has some advice, but I have the feeling they were written by women, and I want advice from guys. Also, what can I tell him to turn him on?

I know Jersey Shore and Real Housewives has given us a bad name, but don't people know everyone's not like that? I'm visiting Florida for the summer, and when I tell people I'm from NJ, they laugh or mock me, or say something stupid about the Jersey Shore. It's kind of annoying.

I'm kinda tired of my name =/. I wish I had a cool nickname but I can't think of anything. Help?

My older sis is having a baby girl and wants to name it "Cainell Marie". Cainell is supposed to mean "beautiful" in Welsh. I don't think it's a good idea, what do you think?

I was at the beach yesterday and some called me a butter face. Am I really one? I know I'm not the prettiest but I never thought I was ugly. Now I'm all self conscious! HELP!

I posted a pic of me at the beach on Facebook and someone said it was "aphrodisiac". What does that mean? I'm worried it might mean fat or something, because I've gained some weight this summer.

So, my boyfriend and I have been dating for over a year now and were ready to take a step further in our relationship. I want to go down on him, but I don't know how. Are you just supposed to lick it or do you suck or blow? I'm so confused, please help! If I do it wrong I'll be so embarrased!
