http://www.funadvice.com/my/advice/mrsdepp en-us First you need to buy a WIRELESS ROUTER. I have a BELKIN WIRELESS G ROUTER 5x. 5x is the smallest which means you don't get it but within a small range of the place that you put the router at in your home. you can get up to about 15x the last time I checked a few months ago. You will install the router on your computer and the easy step by step software disk will guide you through connecting the modem to the router with wires and then with wires from the router to the computer.but if your computer is already wifi compatable (it will have wifi technology built into your computer) then all you'll have to do is unplug the ethernet cable from your computer that is connecting computer to router and scan for wireless networks on your computer. but if you don't have wireless technology built into your computer, youll need to buy a wireless notebook card (the same thing kind of as Sarahhh was talking about with sprint or verizon but with the sprint verizon ones, you wont need a router at all). wireless notebook cards can be bought at walmart as well as the router. Belkin also has a Belkin Wireless Card. The card will come with instructions on how to install it in your laptop without wires that connect router to computer. If you do already have wireless technology on your computer, you can always go to coffee shops, bookstore, even mcdonalds, KFC, and taco bell now and use your laptop there if they have wifi which I think all starbucks do now and some fast food restaurants. You won't even need a router if you go to a coffee shop/restaurant to use. hope I helped! :) mrsdepp Wed, 20 Feb 2008 08:15:35 -0800 http://www.funadvice.com/q/wireless_internet 228913 im not completely sure if this is what you're looking for but try myheritage.com. they do a few things kind of like that with pics but I dont remember if its morphing 2 pics into 1 to see it as "your child". I've also been thinking about doing that as well so I dont' think its a waste of time :) mrsdepp Wed, 20 Feb 2008 07:50:57 -0800 http://www.funadvice.com/q/photo_morphing 228896 do a twisted bun like a sinmple chignon (go to google images and type chignon to better get what I mean :) . when your hair dries in the bun, take it down and you'll have natural-looking curls :) mrsdepp Tue, 19 Feb 2008 19:13:34 -0800 http://www.funadvice.com/q/hair_styles_11643 228420 I also (had) very dark under eye circles/bags. How much water do you drink daily? Dark circles can mean you're dehydrated, your allergies are being affected, or lack of sleep.The thing that doctors and such are always shouting at you is actually beneficial, drink 8 cups of water a day. Drinking adequate amounts of water will cause swelling to go down around your eyes and lighten the overall appearance. If you have allergies or have not been tested for allergies you should get tested by an allergist ( I was allergic to 60 things excluding foods). Ask your doctor for a referal to an allergyst (spelling?) if you experiance typical symptoms such as sneezing, puffy eyes, redened eyes, skin irritation, etc. or ask your doctor for an antihistamine (zyrtec, allegra, clarinex) or some kind of daily antihistamine. Also everyone's sleep needs are different. If I get 10+ hours of sleep one night I'll feel crappy the next day, so on a weekend or sometime when you don't have school/work the next day, experiment one night by going to sleep at a time you usually don't go the sleep. if you want to get up at 6:00 am, go to bed at 9::00pm to try to get 9 hrs of REST. sleep isnt' the same as REST. you dont need to be disturbed. how WELL you sleep affects your appearance the next day :) get up as soon as the alarm goes off, jump around, stretch, and later in the day see if you feel any better, if not, try to get an hour more of sleep the next day if you still dont feel/ look better, get 7 hrs of rest. you probably shouldnt get less than 6 hours a night though, studies have shown that the avg person needs 6+ hours of REST each night to perform at a decent to good performance :) hope I helped! (oh yeah, also try in the morning the put a cool wash cloth on your eyes, I used to do this when I was young before I took antihistamines to make my swelling go down. I also use Almay stick concealer in light/medium because its a half shade lighter than my actually skin color and it brightens my eyes. I put one coat on, tap it with my finger, put another coat on -pay close attention to the insides of your eyes near your nose where it may be darker- then I complete the look with mineral powder to blend the concealer with my natural skin.) (drink WATER also evens your skin tone and can help clear your skin and help it to be more radiant along with brightening your eyes and making the whites of your eyes whiter and brighter!) (for even whiter whites, use navy mascara). Hope I helped :) mrsdepp Tue, 19 Feb 2008 19:09:53 -0800 http://www.funadvice.com/q/how_can_i_get_rid_of_dark_circles 228418 Yeah I was thinking about the dormers. (my brother-in-law calls them "doghouses" ) Thanks, id love more info on the skylights bc as I've been thinking about it, id actually like one better than a typical window, id like it to open though :) Spring is also approaching so it would be a good time to do it before it gets terribly hot. Thanks for the advice, very helpful! mrsdepp Tue, 19 Feb 2008 18:38:21 -0800 http://www.funadvice.com/q/how_much_will_it_cost_to_add_a_window 228365 Some fashion mags do make me feel just as bad unless theres good advice in the book somewhere. It doesnt matter what anyone thinks about you so wear uggs if you want! I don't wear them bc I just couldnt pull them off with my thin legs (but the other boots wit the fur and about a 2-3 inch heel is my cup of tea :) ) I agree with strychnine. guys are probably so used to seeing girls with caked on make-up that if we did show wit nothing on, theyd probably appologize for what they said. That's one of the main causes of self-conscious girls is guys telling them what make-up to wear and how to act. How would you like it if we instructed you on what to wear, how to get your hair cut, your face shaved, or how to act/present yourself. mrsdepp Tue, 19 Feb 2008 18:33:37 -0800 http://www.funadvice.com/q/maybe_girls_should_read_this 228357 But before you can do that of course, you need to take the map to gordie which is located in the very top of Salty's boat. mrsdepp Fri, 03 Aug 2007 19:33:00 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/dancing_nutria_4327 78490 Two weeks ago when i posted this topic, just a few hours later i let my dog in my front yard that is fenced in so she could potty. I had her for 7 years. But that night, she never came back. For these two weeks, i have been posting 'lost dog' signs all over my neighborhood and local markets. This morning, I posted an ad in my local newspaper offering a award for her safe return to my home. Myspace has also came to be handy because i posted bulletins and pics asking my neighborhood to keep open eyes. But this after noon, I went walking around my neighborhood in search of the female terrier who i still love more than life. I found her. She was in the woods behind my house and her body partially decomposed. I thought i had died when i was reassured that this was the strong little dog who i had adopted from her abusive owners 7 years ago because the helpless angel had an identical purple collar just like my sweetheart had worn the last few months of her life. The worst part is, i had got onto her the last day i had her at my house because she has reluctantly climbed fences her whole life but i became extremely percatious when we moved into a new home near an extremely busy intersction that i feared would murder her. Does her running away have anything to do with the fact that i posted this only a couple hours before her run-away? She would get out of our fence on a daily basis usually but she would always return, unfortunately, she didnt' this time. please help me translate this coincidence. I feel absolutely horrible. mrsdepp Tue, 24 Jul 2007 20:43:33 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/is_it_a_necessity_to_get_saved 73693 I also have very skinny legs but im 5' 3" and weightonly 92 lbs and I have a high metabolism. I finally decided to give up on trying to gain weight and I just decided to start toning my body instead. So every night before I go to bed, I get on my hands and my knees and I lift one leg at a time still keeping the knee bent at a 90 degree angle. I do this 20-30 times each leg with about 3 reps for each leg. this tones the butt and also the back of your thigh. and to tone my calves, I stand on my porch steps facing my house and I put my toes and the wide part of my foot on the edge of the steps, letting the arch and heel hang off. I then raise myself up and down, using only that half of my foot. that tones your calves. When your legs hurt, that means your muscles are tearing because they weren't in shape. when your legs begin to hurt, do it about 5-10 more times. hope I helped. mrsdepp Thu, 12 Jul 2007 15:53:28 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/how_can_i_get_bigger_legs 70180 thanks to both of you. i have also thought of the fact that not everyone believes in christianity or even god. Some may not have even heard of the Lord in their lives for they may be part of the large majority of refugees in Africa, Cambodia, UK ect. who have not had the least bit of knowledge or education so what happens to those who never got a chance to believe? Again, thanks to everyone! mrsdepp Wed, 11 Jul 2007 16:41:57 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/is_it_a_necessity_to_get_saved 69948 You can try this but usually it gives very broad search results: http://search.aimpages.com/apsearchus/search And it's for the AIM "page" maybe not exactly their AIM screenname so hope i helped :) mrsdepp Sat, 07 Jul 2007 23:40:24 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/how_can_i_find_someones_aim_screen 69060 Hope you live in the USA because from experience, I can definately say that Mexico Beach, Florida is a beautiful beach to stay at with many local attractions and it is quiet and is slowly being constructed to having more attractions. It is somewhat small, and to give you an idea, it is on the panhandle of Florida and has a cape that jetts out into the ocean, in front of its beach, making a safer place away from many sharks. And the cape that protects it is also a very neat place to stay. As of April 2006, there were virtually no places to eat nor attractions making it desolate but still very comfortable! Here's the website to Mexico Beach, FL which is 10-20 minutes away from its neighboring city, Panama City Beach, FL: mexicobeach.com mrsdepp Sat, 07 Jul 2007 14:50:52 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/best_beach_for_weekend_trip 68988 Thanks for both of your help! I honestly don't care about what people think of me anymore because in 8th grade, that was like h*ll! trying to fit in and everything is a waste of time and it isn't honest so since the beginning of my 9th grade year, i just dropped trying to be who i wasn't because it was too nerve wrecking. To tell you the truth i haven't gained any friends in school nor have i lost any but I feel better about myself. And to tell you the truth was encouraged to be more myself was souliejolie. com. It's the best angelina jolie web site and everyone there is their selves and they encourage you to be your self :) It is wonderful adn they try to get you to be who you are. i guess this was kind of a response to KorgPro but i still would love to take home school or almost drop out because i still hate it. Thanks to everyone who FunMailed me and who replied to this post! Thanks a whole, whole lot! :) :P mrsdepp Sat, 07 Jul 2007 14:42:44 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/i_need_to_gain_weight_im_15_yr_old 68986 I wouldnt feed it anything other than worms if you resist taking it to a shelter or calling the shelter for tips. remember that it mother would only feed it chewed and spit out (thrown up) worms so .. yeah. mrsdepp Sat, 07 Jul 2007 14:29:36 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/i_need_help_332 68984 They do have a support section on myspace about this sort of thing but here's another idea: If the person who hacked your myspace didn't change your myspace log-in e-mail (which i don't think they can because a confirmation email has to be sent to the email that you log in with, in which case they would have to know your email passord). so if they didn't hange you myspace email log in, then you can simple click on forgot password on login.myspace.com. and follow the directions from there. mrsdepp Sat, 07 Jul 2007 14:26:49 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/i_need_the_password 68983 I've never bit my nails in my life not even when i was in kindergarten; i have always had long nails but my 2 sisters have always nawed away at theirs so this is what id suggest: I agree with Hananhbanana95 because i too have had acrylic nail put on and there is no way you can bite them. unless you do bite them and then they break in half on your nail and that should teach you to never bite them again :P Or you could try to releive your stress because nail biting links to having stress. Good luck mrsdepp Sat, 07 Jul 2007 14:22:06 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/how_do_i_stop_biting_my_nails 68982 Yes you should be able to. If the songs are in the file format mp3, then you should. To Check if they're in the mp3 format, put your mouse over the song title while it's in a file folder or something and it will say something like this: File Name: the lion sleeps tonight File Size: KB or MB (eigther one) File format: mp3 If it says mp3 in file format, then it should be able to be used on your iPod, mp3 player, Playstation portable, or any other media device that holds mp3s. I don't have an iPod but i have a Playstation Portable and ive been through hell with trying to figure everything out aboue that thing. Hope I helped! mrsdepp Sat, 07 Jul 2007 14:13:13 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/itunes 68980 I agree with sue90 about the neighborhood thing. I don't know what to tell you really because I am white and I live in a multiracial neighborhood. about half of my school is African American and half is white. I don't know why but Mexicans are disliked mainly here and everyone appreciates each other's race. I think people don't like Mexicans as much because they don't legally become an American citizen and the English language may easily vanish if Spanish speaking immagrants flood into America without learning the American language. For many jobs, you have to learn Spanish in order to be hired because of the excessive amount of people in America who only speak Spanish. I kind of got lost on the topic..sorry I do that a lot :) mrsdepp Fri, 06 Jul 2007 17:56:42 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/do_they_still_hate_us 68795 No youre not fat! I am 15 1/2, 5' 4" and weigh about 92 pounds. Im female of course and i cannot gain weight. I think i have high metabolism but i haven't been diagnosed with it and i visit a pediatrician about 5 times a year honestly and she has never said anything to me about trying to gain weight! If anyone knows how i can gain weight healthily, other than scarfing myself with fattening foods because i have already done so, please message me ! thanks :) mrsdepp Thu, 05 Jul 2007 23:53:02 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/am_i_fat_632 68592 I don't appreciate the person above who said that 0s are skeletons. I am a 0-1 and I am 15 1/2 years old and i am about 5' 4". I have been trying to gain weight since 7th grade and am now going into the 10th grade. I have a very high metabolism. I can't even reach 100 lbs :( yeah im obviously a girl. What really frustrates me is when people think i don't eat and they say things like "eat a hamburger". I don't care what people think about me but i just don't feel like i look healthy. And yes, i do eat a hamburger! I actually eat like a whole Big Mac and fries when i go out to "grab a bite to eat"! If anyone know how i can naturally or organically gain weight, please, please help me. Id appreciate it so much! mrsdepp Thu, 05 Jul 2007 23:46:13 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/body_image_and_size 68590 It seems kind of obvious to do this but some people arent' aware of it but..You shoule wash your face every day. At the extreme least, one a day. I used to have terribel acne that i cried over but id suggest this which helped clear the majority of my skin: What your face every morning and every night with a face cleaning solution, NOT SOAP AND WATER! soap and water will worsten the acne. I use St. Ives Apricot Scrub blemish and blackhead control. If it dries your skin out too much using it twice a day, then just wash your face at night so that you will be washing away all the dirt that clogged your pores that day. Hoped i help :) oh yeah! There's a brand that makes a concealer stick that you apply on your blemishes and it helps cover them while clearing your skin :) mrsdepp Thu, 05 Jul 2007 23:32:19 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/how_do_i_kick_acne_s_butt 68588 I don't know how many calories you should eat per day but i have a few suggestions on how you can trim down :) EAT HEALTHY: did you know that its a proven fact that eating breakfast can actually help you lose weight? Eat a healthy kind of cereal and maybe a banana and orange juice. OJ boosts your iron which decreases your chances of becoming weak throughout the day since you are going to be cutting down on food intake. Bananas decrease your chances of getting cramps from excersises. Then I'd say jog a couple laps around your block or something. Remember that sweat is positive. means burning calories! so don't be afraid to not strip but don't over heat. Drink plenty of water and don't drink cokes! you'd be surprized how much sugar is in one canned cola! For lunch, lose the burgers and fries, try white meat like chicken. did you know that at Chik-fil-A, an 8 pc chicken nuggets has less calories than a small fry! with the chicken, grab a bag a BAKED chips and a HEALTHY, all natural smoothy, water, or juice! some energy drinks may be packed with sugar. Avoid anything fried and indulge on baked! If your having withdraws from sugar, try fruit! Fruit is so sweet you can pack a blender with the nasties veggies but add a couple of fruits and the sweetness from the fruit overpowers veggies and all you taste is pure sweetness. You may want to jog a couple more laps AFTER dinner for faster results and no one looking to lose weight or maintain their weight should ever eat right before going to bed. The food will sit in your body for the 8 hours that you sleep and you will be in a stationary position for a while and won't be able to burn those added calories off. hope i helped :D if not, message me :) mrsdepp Thu, 05 Jul 2007 23:20:34 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/how_can_i_loose_a_few_pounds 68585 I agree with the person above me. You may not stay together (no offense but odds are you won't since he's in prison. Prison relationships probably wouldn't be the best idea. Im probably being too negative about prison but i can't help it. in 15 and my father -my parents divorced when i was 2 and i haven't seen him since- well he was in prison the day she left him and he has been in and out ever since. Actually he is in right now. He was an abusive alcoholic and beat my mother in the stomach with the car door when she was pregnant with me. You know when people tell you to forgive and forget? well you probably won't ever catch me telling that to anyone because i don't forgive my father. he hasn't tried stay in contact with me nor my two sisters. he even got a 17 yr old girl pregnant a few years ago and went to prison during her pregnancy. she married someone else and the man adopted her son.) so thats why i say that about prison relationships. But, i think you should talk to your parents. they brought you into this world and unless they have done anything to harm you or put your life in questioning, you should be able to lean on them for things. my almost 19 yr old sis is 6 1/2 mons pregnant with her second child (first at 17 was a miscarraige) and her baby's father lives with me, my mother, and my two sisters. he just got forced to get a job to split the bills for occupancy at our home and will probably end up getting taken to court if he ever tries to leave my sister alone with the baby. (she was a minor when she got pregnant both times). i dont' know why im telling you this all but maybe itll help in some moral way :D adios, amiga! mrsdepp Thu, 05 Jul 2007 23:03:08 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/i_told_my_folks_to_get_lost_dad_came 68582 Are you meaning "How do i get my hair curly?". If so, you can get a curling perm. After you get the perm, you can buy mousse or gel and a curl enhancing shampoo and/or conditioner. That is what i did because me hair was flat and strait. If you want strait hair, you can get a straitening perm or you can keep your hair the way it is and get a hair dryer, brush, and strait-hair enhacing shampoo and conditioner. If you want volume added with your strait hair, get a blow dryer, set on a chair, bed side, or something and flip your hair/head upside down. put the blow dryer on the inner side of the hair and brush on the outside for added volume. Then, while brushing your hair (head still turned upside down), blow dry from the inner side of your hair with the flow on high. once the majority of your hair is dry, put the air flow on low and turn your head up and blow dry on low so it doesnt' damage your hair as much. You can buy thermal protection spray that your spritz onto your hair before blow drying so that you can achieve a less damaged look from heat of you blow dryer and curling iron or flat iron. After you hair is dry, turn your blow dryer on a COOL setting and blow dry hair to set the style. hope i helped :D mrsdepp Thu, 05 Jul 2007 22:47:19 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/how_do_i_get_it_puffy_curly_hair 68579 Usually you can look in magazines. Not car magazines or People (i don't think). Usually things like Vogue or Glamour magazines. There will usually be pages and articles in the mag that has a doctor, dermatologist, or specialist talking about good products that they would recrommend. Or you can always go to a dermatologist (skin specialist) who can give you a prescription or advice on a skin product that they think would be good for your type of skin or condition of your skin mrsdepp Thu, 05 Jul 2007 22:35:47 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/how_do_i_find_good_skin_care_products 68575
