  1. This is really, really cute . I think it's fairly accurate, actually. The roles at least apply entertainment-wise. (I'd say the messages are dead-on to what these gestures mean on T.V. )
  2. Midnightvamp is right, anybody would like to hear compliments, right? Besides, a lot of girls don't always feel themselves like they're beautiful so if you think so, you should tell her! (Well, maybe not EXACTLY like that though, I mean, I'd be a little weirded out if someone I barely knew suddenly told me something like that. I would start with little compliments.)Rather than just tell her you like her, if you two don't know each other so well yet, have a few conversations with her, flirt a bit, maybe slide in a few of those compliments (not all in the same conversation though!!!). You could also find some common friends and go out in a big group, so that you can get to know each other more outside of school. This way, I think she'll be more open to the idea of dating you. Go to a movie or something with several other people, and sit next to her so that you can talk before and after the movie. I've seen a lot of friends get together this way. It's like an indirect date?I'm sixteen myself, and I admit that some part of me is still attracted to arrogant, good-looking jerks (I don't know what it is, but I know I'm not the only one.) The thing is, even if the attraction is there, you don't see many arrogant, good-looking jerks in functional, long-standing relationships, do you? Girls like to flirt with them, maybe even go out with them for a while, but in the end it's usually the sweet guys you can talk to that get the girls. If you want, you could always go half-way, and that'd be alright. Just be your usual studious-self but every once in a while step out of your boundaries. Girls will like that, someone they can talk to and have a good time with. Remember that looks don't matter so much. Hygienic, good-smelling and romantic boys who write songs are equaly attractive. Oh yeah, and if a girl is shy, timid, or a little old fashioned, the girl won't make the first move. (Some girls will make the first move though, we're all different,) Making the first move yourself is a good way to step out of your boundaries, so if you feel the time is right, be confident and ask her out.Good luck,
  3. I find that I agree with most of this for sure. As far as looks go, they really don't always matter, (as long as there is good hygiene ) I don't think all guys are only focused on looks either though.
  4. I'm shy about this kind of stuff myself, so probably just casually saying you "kind of like her" a year ago will make her unsure of how to react. She probably didn't know how serious you were about it, if that meant you'd want to go out with her, or if you wanted to know her feelings about you. Since it's been a year that you've been good friends, I doubt she'll see you as a potential boyfriend right now. Maybe when you told her you kind of liked her a year ago something might have sparked, but after nothing more on the subject since, she's probably given up on the idea. My suggestion is, flirt with her a bit (friendly flirting, though,) and see if she flirts back. If you feel chemistry with her, chances are she can feel it too and when you're ready, ask her out properly, so that this time you'll get a proper answer and no matter which way it goes, things will be settled and you can either a), move on, or b ), come out of it with a girlfriend
  5. Okay, so, like someone already said, it seems to me like it's more a case of infatuation than love. Then again, no one knows better than you so I think you should just think it through some more and decide for yourself whether or not you love her. If you do decide that you really do love her, don't go and say exactly that, because it will probably scare her off. I wouldn't try and give her your number either, unless she asks for it. If you two still talk online, I would just wait it out and continue on like that, talking to her casually and over time you can both get a little more flirty. Don't push too hard, it might turn out that you two just don't have the right chemistry and there really isn't much you can do about that. To sum it up: Take it slow, don't push, don't let jealousy of her friendship with the other guy get the better of you, and keep an open mind to other girls whom you might share better chemistry with.
  6. That's hilarious! Though I'm a girl and I hate talking on the phone =P Oh, and of course, who's to say that exercising some personal hygene doesn't make a girl happy? Everything else is true though...
  7. I'm not such a big fan of comedy movies, since I'm not one of those people who laughes when someone accidently eats/drinks something they shouldn't have, or gets insanely drunk and embarasses themselves, to name a few. My favourite movies are deffinitly Kill Bill vol. 1, Charlie And The Chocolate Factory (both versions), movies by Miyazaki such as Spirited Away, Howls Moving Castle, etc., The Nightmare before Christmas and Monster House. Oh yeah, and Hercules. Of course, any movie is my favourite when I'm watching it. Even if it is only because it's giving me something to make fun of =)
  8. I first got into html when I was eleven, so it took me about a month or something to be able to make a decent website layout. A long time, I guess, though back then I didn't really have the patience. It really depends on the person, I think, since I know people who took a web design class for four months and still couldn't really grasp the concept of html. If you keep at it and are generally a fast learner it can take you anywhere from two days to a week, I'd say.Html isn't very good by itself though, so I suggest that you also take the time to learn some css and maybe even a little bit of php.
  9. I came across this a couple weeks ago, and was quite pleased. It's a lot easier than downloading the plugin, and you can make any picture you want into a favicon in only seconds, free of charge. http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ I think you can actually MAKE them there too, as well as uploading them XD
  10. Haha, if I were that girls parent I think I would kill him for writing such an inconsiderate letter to my daughter, even if I was glad that they broke up =/I think it was a really sweet thing to do on the guys part though, and if I were his girlfriend I would be both very touched and amused at his efforts.
  11. I'm assuming that you know for certain that she's single, so I have to say, go for it. You miss every shot you don't take. You'll probably regret it if you don't at least try, only this time around do it right, because last time I think you went about it the wrong way.First of all, I wasn't there so I can't say for sure, but judging by how little confidence you seem to have, and her reaction, you were probably too quiet. If you weren't too quiet, you were deffinitly at the wrong place and the wrong time anyway. Heck, maybe she thought you were talking to someone else. If the girl doesn't know you very well, then she deffinitly won't be expecting you to ask her out. I remember once when a guy I barely knew was giving me love notes for nearly half a year and I didn't even notice what these little shreds of paper I was finding everywhere were. I felt horrible when I finally realized they were for me, but things would have gone better if he'd just come up to me, looked me in the eye and told me.I suggest that you do that, find a good time, like walking together after school like someone has suggested, or even just call her. Either way, make sure she's listening. It's also a good idea for her to have a vague idea that you like her before hand. That way it won't come completely out of the blue and she can take you seriously. You can do this by flirting with her a little bit. Give it a little more time, talk to her some more and your feelings will come across naturally. You might want to know each other a bit better anyway, because a date between two almost-strangers could be...awkward.When you're ready just go for it. The worst thing that could happen would be if she says no, and knowing is better than not knowing. If she does say no, don't let it make you feel bad about yourself and stop you from having a good homecoming with someone else. Anyway, I wish you luck and no matter what happens, I wish you a happy homecoming.
  12. Well said. I agree, dating do's and dont's can be completely different depending on the people on the date. Plus, if it's a first date and there's no chemistry then no ammount of "do's & dont's" is going to change anything. Of course, I do believe that there are some things that aren't and never will be okay to do on a date. Like talk about an ex. It seems almost like common sense, but believe it or not, a lot of people do it. Or talking about yourself the WHOLE time, cutting off your partner. Or winking/flirting with the waiter/waitress. But again, these are all common sense and if you need a list of do's or dont's to tell you that it's wrong, then maybe you're just not ready for the dating world yet =P.
  13. I like both, but I'm picky about which songs I'll listen to. Just because I like rap doesn't mean I'll like every rap song, and the same goes for rock. Plus, there aren't many rap artists out there who I'm fond of. Sure, they can rap just fine, but there songs lack any good content and their music videos are boring.
  14. Ah, Sudoku. I know it well Every Saturday morning I sit down with a bowl of cornflakes and do one until someone else wakes up. If it's hard enough, I'll scribble down possibilities all over another page of the newspaper I'm not interested in and it annoys everyone in my family to tears.It seems to have gotten pretty big in the past year or two, I hear it mentioned everywhere and my bookstore has an entire shelf dedicated Sudoku. If you're ever bored and want to do one, just search "Sudoku" on google image search, pick one and paste it into ms paint. Then sudoku away! You can even erase easily.
  15. Haha, I woke up this morning at what would have been around 7:30 and I started to get up when the radio reminded me that it was only 6:45 :lol:I was really greatful to be able to lie back down again onto my soft, fluffy pillow =DOh, but how come Saskatchewan, Canada doesn't have daylight savings time? I heard this this morning and I was curious.
  16. Maybe you could take two cookies that haven't been baked yet, so I guess, that would make them blobs of cookie dough, and put one on top of the other, except kind of mold it together at the bottom. Then you'd have something like a hollow lump on your cookie, and after it's baked you can somehow put ice cream in there with a needle or something similar. Or you could just leave a hole in the lump, and then put ice cream in the cookie with a seringe.
  17. Hehe, what a spiffy little tool =D I find that in most forums I participate in, every once in while I feel the need to put one there, but can't find one that belongs. With a variety like that, however, I'm sure I'll be able to come up with something.This could come in handy for those people who feel that every post they make should have a smily face, just so that everyone can rest assured that they are feeling happy and satisfied with their lives =/ (My mom is one of those people, I regret the day I gave her my e-mail address)Thanks for posting this =)
  18. I like the third and the fourth, I think, the best. I love abstract stuff, and I thought the colour looked pretty together. It's true that some of them were a tad plain, however the simple look goes nicely with a lot of them too. Don't quit making graphics when you have talent like that Afterall, graphic making is waaay more than just stamping brushes around a blank canvas, like some people do.
  19. My favourite shows are Desperate Housewives, Greys Anatomy, Gilmore Girls, Scrubs, What About Bryan and Ouran High School Host Club, which is an anime I watch on YouTube. Two of those are doctor shows, which is kind of funny, I guess, since I seem to really enjoy those =/
  20. My favourite book of all time would either have to be "Bridge Of Birds" or "Enders Game". The latter one is by Orson Scott Card and it's a sci-fi novel. It also has two other book that go along with it, by two different people's point of view during the same thing. I've only read one of those, thoughI read Bridge Of Birds when I was nine, and it still holds the number one book in my mind. My grade seven teacher started to read it to us, but never finished. It didn't matter to me, seeing as how I'd already read it, but I felt a little regret for those who hadn't, oblivious that they were really missing out.
  21. The last book I read was "To Kill A Mocking Bird." It was our novel study at school and I'm one of those annoying kids who reads the whole thing in two days because they like to have the future insight for their essays. I reccomend it to anyone who hasn't already read it, though I'm pretty sure almost everyone has. Yesterday I was just finishing it off when sitting on the couch and my aunt said, "I had to read that when I was in high school." I absentmindedly replied with, "yeah, it's an old book."
  22. It's true that Harry has been somewhat at fault for most of the misfortunate events in the series, though we have to all remember, he's only human, and more so, just a kid. In every one of our lives things will happen and when it's time for someone to point the finger, the person who's most at fault (even if there was no way to know what would happen,) could very well be yourself. It's the same for Harry, he just does what he thinks he should and in most cases there is absolutely no way for him to tell that it's the wrong thing to do.The only thing that sets us apart from him is that his um, "world" is a lot more fragile than ours, so if you do something wrong the consequences could be enormous and possibly life-threatening. As you can see for yourself, in every book we learn of something new and potentially dangerous. The "wizarding world" is full of unknown threats that Harry is just as unaware of as the reader himself. There's no way he could predict that the cup would be a port key, or that Creature was lying. I'm not saying I really like Harry, since I do find myself very annoyed when he selfishly takes out his anger on those who try to help him, and his mope-around, feel sorry for himself phases make me want to close the stupid book, but I don't hate him either. A character without flaws would be boring, and I'm sure J.K. Rowling knows that. Besides, without those many screw ups the books wouldn't be anything but, "scar hurts, went to class, scar hurts again, went to bed, scar hurts, whined about it to those who would listen," and so on. No one would read it =P
  23. I watched t.v. a few hours ago, for about eight minutes. It was the Tyra Banks show and my mom called me in to here this story about some drug-addict lady who gave up her kids so she could go get high and never saw them again. I think she lives on the street now??Anyway, it's nothing I haven't seen on Dr. Phil. Stay away from drugs guys, just stay away
  24. Haha, I had no idea that people don't normally do this, (I thought it was pretty normal,) but I tend to always put my peanut butter sandwhich in the microwave for twenty-five seconds to melt the peanut butter, then eat it.Afterwards it's all nice and warm and the bread is softer. Try it, you might like it.
  25. Well, to be honest, from what I can tell by looking at the picture, they seem awefully normal to me. I wouldn't worry too much about it, many people have skinny wrists (I actually know quite a few, come to think of it) and it's pretty normal. People shouldn't be calling you anorexic just because of your wrists, that's a little extreme. Anorexia is visible EVERYWHERE after a while, so after knowing you for about a year and all you have to show for your supposed "anorexia" is skinny wrists then it becomes almost ridiculous. If anything, they're probably just trying to bug you, in which case you should proudly let them know that you like your small wrists. Being ashamed of them so much that you wear long sleeved shirts won't make you feel any better than being called "anorexic girl". You can't change your wrists, so instead, work with what you have. Wear a bunch of pretty bracelets that most people can't or something. Either way, life is too short to spend so much time worrying about something like the size of your wrists. Later on you'll probably regret not wearing that pretty tank top or expensive T-Shirt you love because of it.Btw, something anorexic girls might do is wear baggier or longer clothes so as not to call so much attention on their sudden loss of weight, or so we were told in health class. So hiding your wrists won't help your case much
