    I don't know anything about anime, but I do know that sometimes it is more difficult to perform in front of a small group of people when compared to a large group. With a large group you are able to view the audience as a whole and not focus on any particular person, this always made it easier for me. When you are in front of only a few people, esp. people who's opinion you really value you will most likely be focused on their response and won't be able to just forget about them and enjoy your performance like you could with a large audience.
    Remember how much you have practiced and how proud you are when you preform. Good luck, I hope you don't give up!

    I think the V-bangs would look nice on you. You have a good face shape for the bangs, and your eyebrows arch nice as well.
    Here is a youtube tutorial on making fake bangs from hair extensions

    I would suggest you test out these bangs with extensions before you do the actual cutting. I personally think this style is cute if not done too severe, you do need a certain face shape to pull it off though.

    I would suggest you contact an exterminator or look into natural ways to rid fleas from your home. Whichever way you are more comfortable with.
    My cats got fleas from the grass in our complex or the neighbors dog, still not sure which, but it was HORRIBLE! I hated every second and the worst was, I felt like my home was dirty. Finally we got rid of them and our kitties are much happier now.

    *We vacuumed 3+ times a day and threw the contents away outside immediately. (We also shampooed the carpets)
    *Washed all slipcovers, bedding, drapes, rugs, ect in HOT water.
    *SWEEP, SWEEP, SWEEP again, throw the contents out ASAP otherwise they will just come back in.
    *Take off shoes BEFORE entering the house, fleas can catch a ride in on your shoes.
    *Got flea treatment for the kitties, this didn't help as much as we expected.
    *Bathed the kitties in a flea treatment.

    The thing that really helped was "Diatomaceous earth" I am guessing on the name but you get it at natural pet stores and it looks like white powder, it is crushed seashells that literally slices the fleas and larva, killing them. This is safe for pets, and kids and has no negative chemical side effects. After using this product we have had no problems with bugs of any type.

    Check out this website there are ALOT of tricks to get rid of fleas naturally including treating the grounds outside your house with the above mentioned white powder and even flea eating worms.

    On a side note, I am sorry you have to experience judgments based on something as silly as bug bites, but many of the foster children my family cared for were also covered in flea bites and when investigated it was discovered that they were either abused or neglected (example tied up and left alone when only 1 year old, or living in a meth house)
    This does not sound like you at all, but it is comforting for me to know that people are aware that bug bites could be a sign of trouble. I hope my experience will enable you to rid your home of fleas. Also Calamine lotion and hydro cortisone seem to help the most with bug bites.

    @ Nora C: Nice to hear a good story about selectspecs! Almost every review I have read has been negative, but I figured most people only write a review to complain so I should ask around.
    I am definitely going to buy a budget pair of specs first so if something goes wrong I will only loss $10, since reimbursement also seems to be a problem with most online companies.

    @ Mod: I actually came across the website you mentioned when I was researching where to buy contacts from online. Unfortunately they do not stock the brand I need because of my astigmatism. Their glasses are also more expensive, so I will stick to select specs, at least this time. Happy

    @ Sweet C: I have been taking shape, color, and bridge into consideration. I have had similar colored glasses in the past so hopefully these flatter my face as well. I really wanted to try something different since my old glasses are black. Since I'm an autumn the colors should work well with my skin tone, hopefully they are true to the colors shown online.

    Does anyone have a favorite among the glasses shown? I like them all! That doesn't really help me narrow it down though.

    Have you ever read the Eragon series? The author, Christopher Paolini wrote the first book when he was 16 I believe. They are about dragons and faieres and set in medieval ages, so if you like fantasy I would highly recommend this series.
    Another good series is the Vampire Academy, it's about vampires but much more complex and well written than the Twilight saga.
    Also check out the Uglies series by Scott Westerfeld. This series is more sci-fi, but has a love story as well. This is def. one of my favorite books.

    I recommended alot of series, but I will try and think of individual books as well.

    I personally think you should paint what you like, because when you enjoy what you are doing your talent will show.
    As for inspiration maybe try a Steampunk design with clocks,and gears?
    Check out this website for more painted shoes, here is a shoe from the site, probably one of my favs.

    I am considering buying a pair of glasses online from www.selectspecs.com. Has anyone ever bought glasses from this company? I am wondering about the validity of this company.
    These are the pairs I am debating between, I have a oval face so I am leaning towards rectangle frames. What's your impression on these frames?

    Lazer tag is a good idea!
    Also try bowling, or miniature golf, Go-karts are fun and most teens LOVE them.
    If you have access to paddle boats you could make a day of it with a picnic and everything.
    Maybe explore a new restaurant with food you have never tried before. Example, Mediterranean, Asian, Ethiopian, ect. ? When I was a teenager I loved trying new experiences and learning about other cultures.

    Couldn't you just buy a plus size top and a separate bottom? Or even a plus size swimsuit that offers enough overage and modify the bottom of the suit to fit your shape?

    Personally I don't see why buying a plus size would be bad if it offers more coverage and the support you need. One of my friends used to cut all the labels out of her clothes so she didn't get hung up on the size and could concentrate on getting a good fit.

    Most breasts are about 80% fat because alot of women store their excess weight in this spot. When especially large chested women begin an exercise regime they will go down a bra size. Regardless of how large or small your breasts are, proper support is always important. Happy

    You can't lose weight in one day. I would suggest you try drinking ALOT of water to help flush your system clean. Also refrain from salt since the sodium will make you retain the water weight. If you are serious about losing weight you need to make modifications to what you eat every day and have realistic goals. I suggest you ask your physician for practical guidelines.

    As for looking good in one day, maybe invest in a body shaper/corset and control top pantyhose since that will be the most realistic option to look thinner in one day. Also nude high heels will visually elongate your legs making you appear taller and thinner as well. Hope these tricks help, I am assuming you are going to a dress up event.

    I thought of that but I also like to cook low cholesterol, and low caloric value I enjoyed the pictures though.
    Also I only eat cheese occasionally, other than that I am a full vegan so it would be difficult to modify a recipe to the point of impossibility.
