Sydney

I've been trying to find some more boy names, but I'm just stuck. There's not a ton that I really like.

I don't like many short names, which has limited me.

Here are some I do like:

Nathaniel

Graham

Micah

Noah

Westley

Nikolas

Caspian

Landon

Any suggestions for names that I might like? Feel free to include the meanings if you want.

I have an old iPod loaded with music that I haven't used in a long time, and a new laptop with a library full of new music. If I plug in and sync my old iPod, will it end up loaded with the songs on my laptop? Or would my laptop end up with all of my old songs?

I have my earlobes pierced twice on each side, and a third on one side that is healed over but has been done twice. I also have my top cartilage pierced. None of those hurt that bad for me, but I was wondering how much getting your tragus pierced hurts. Anyone have experience? I just want to kind of get an idea of what to expect if I get mine done.

I saw on some website that it could be a snake, but I also need to know why.

So, what animal represents strife/struggle, and why?

Please and thanks :)

Any recommendations for a good new phone?

I'm with AT&T and I am eligible for an upgrade. :)

Thanks.

I start swimming on the 31st, but I wear contacts. My mom says I should just take them out before swim practice, but then I won't be able to see anything. However, they are 2-week contacts so I can't just wear them in the water then throw them out, and I don't know if I can even safely wear them in the water. Would goggles protect them and keep them unharmed/in my eyes?

Any other advice/experiences?

Thanks. :)

My mom threatened to report me as a runaway if I left the house again after I ran out earlier.

She says unless I am picked up from the house by my dad I am to go nowhere.

And also, I'm 14.

So what would happen if she reported me?

Would I get a criminal record or be brought to the police station or anything?

This is my hair now: http://i55.tinypic.com/158428w.jpg (natural)

http://i52.tinypic.com/2vuh3b4.jpg (another natural)

http://i51.tinypic.com/qn2o28.jpg (curled)

http://i52.tinypic.com/vqtrsz.jpg (natural again, but you can see the length/cut better)

I do have shorter bangs now, that are either full across and wispy/choppy or shorter and to my left side. I also wear my hair in a slightly deep right side part. My hair is pretty fine/thin too.

So, if I get my hair cut, what should I do with it?

I want to keep it long but I need a change.

Maybe like an inch or two off and a few layers?...

Thanks in advance! <3

I also want to dye my hair, but I'm REALLY hesitant.

I've been trying to decide between a few colors.

Which would look best?

Thanks in advance! <3

And includes the Greek root "theo"?

Thanks in advance. :)

There was an ad in the paper for Big 5 Sporting Goods that said they had Bearpaw boots for only $39.

I'm kind of apprehensive though, do you think they would be good quality?

My left, or right?

I have two piercings on my left earlobe, and three on my right, so I was thinking I would get my cartilage done on my left to balance it out a bit but I'm not sure.

I may be getting a new phone in the next few days, and I was wondering what a good one is.

I want something that's not incredibly difficult to use, and cute.

I'm 14, so I can't get a job. The only money I get currently is for recycling all of my family's glass, plastic, and aluminum, but I can only get money for that every two months or so. I take care of my neighbor's yard for money sometimes, but only when they are on vacation which is in the spring/summer. There are no kids in my neighborhood to babysit, it doesn't snow so I can't shovel snow or anything, and all of the families around me are capable of doing everything by themselves so I have nothing to help them with. Any suggestions?

So I've been trying to eat healthier, but it's sort of hard.

What are some healthy foods I can have as snacks, or simple meals?

Especially for breakfast, which is my favorite meal and I have the most time/options for, and for snacks (fruit, veggies..?)

Also, anything that can help me stay full so I don't crave unhealthy food as much would be nice.

Do you think I could pull off a reddish blonde color?

So I've been pretty stressed lately. I'm generally awake from about 4:30am to 11:00pm, so I'm running on less than 6 hours of sleep during the weekdays. I also have a lot of stress coming from my family from fighting and worrying about things like that. My friends add some stress also, from the drama and pressure and whatnot. I just hate being stressed because it makes it harder for me to focus, I sometimes end up stress eating which I do not want to be doing, and it makes my skin break out. So basically, how can I reduce some of the stress in my life?

I'm just looking for a product that is anti-redness for my face. I have fair skin.

If you could also tell me the general price that would be great.
