I see all these "hybrid" fruits like strawberries and grapes they are huge! and i don’t think they naturally grow that big. Also aren’t the cows given steroids so they can get bigger; sell more meat and produce more milk? and that steroids transfers to the milk/meat we eat; causing the people (teens) who aren’t done growing to be taller and bigger at an earlier age?

Ok, so this is what I wanna do.
I’m gonna post clues about different celebrities, dead or alive.

There you go, sorry it’s so long lol I was bored.

I’m an almost-16 year old guy, and I very much want to start gymnastics, and go as far with it as I can. I don’t want to be an Olympian or anything crazy like that, but I think Level 10 is a very worthwhile goal that I want to someday reach.

I’m 6’3", 185 pounds, and just about done growing. I’m also naturally pretty strong, and I do pushups, dips, and situps most days, on top of swimming. Also, I stretch most days, and I’m pretty flexible.

What do you guys think? Am I too tall or old to reach my dream someday?

Thanks much.

So I’m a 16 yr old guy and I’m 6 foot 9. I don’t like being so tall, everywhere I go a lot of people stare at me and I think I’m the tallest guy in my entire school. My body looks fine and is in proportion. There is nothing wrong with my skull or anything like that. I don’t have pain anywhere, i’m not weak, and I can work out with no problem. I have low blood pressure and my kidneys are functioning very well. I weight 203 lbs and that is normal weight. So I don’t think I have gigantism. I’m currently playing basketball and working out, do you think that is what is causing it? I never take steroids. Genetics probably doesn’t have anything to do with it cuz my father is 5 foot 9, my mother is 5 foot 6, my sister is 5 foot 7, and my brother is 5 foot 8. Am I just about done growing or is there still more inches to come? Is there anything I can do to either make myself shorter or stop my growth if I’m still growing?? I want to do it naturally, not by medicine or drugs. And do you girls like tall guys?

I’m writing a story, and I can’t decide on a name for my main character. She’s 5 foot 4 inches tall, and weighs 115 pounds. She has light brown wavy hair that goes just a little past her shoulders, and dark brown roots (she’s letting her hair grow out, as she reminds everyone when they comment on how she needs a touch up) She has hazel eyes that look dark brown most of the time, and really thick lashes. She’s curvy, but skinny with an hourglass figure, and kind of tanned from the sun with naturally flushed, rosy cheeks. She’s smart, and knows how to get what she wants but she’s also a serious party girl. I’ve got 2 names for her.
*Avery
or…
*Aubree (Aubrey)
And I can’t for the life of me decide which to go with. Which one do you like better, and why?
Thank you so much!:D
She does have flaws, I just didn’t feel the need to write about them in here. But for those of you who are wandering, she’s dyslexic, and has in on the edge of going in to depression, which is why she parties so much. (very fragile mental state) She lost her mom, and fights non stop with her father.

I was wondering because there’s all these exercises on google that state "exercises to naturally increase your height" is this anyway possible?

So I’m a 15 yr old guy and I’m 6 foot 9. I don’t like being so tall, everywhere I go a lot of people stare at me and I think I’m the tallest guy in my entire school. My body looks fine and is in proportion. There is nothing wrong with my skull figure or anything like that. I don’t have pain anywhere, i’m not weak, and I can work out with no problem.

STORY ONE

The sudden screeching of tyres woke Miranda up. The sound of a door opening and the crunching sound of someone walking on asphalt that followed made her leap from her bed.
Tugging on her dressing gown, she made her way out of her room and out of her house. She hid behind the side of the house, watching. There were two men. One tall and slim, with blonde hair. Another was short and fat with greasy black hair.
They looked towards me and I slunk back into the shadows. I held my breath and tried to make myself invisible, squashing up next to the house. It wasn’t hard to become thin, I naturally was. Even though, I felt like I weighed 300 kilos and was sticking out like a pimple on the prom queen’s face.
I suddenly heard footsteps behind me, I whirled around. There was another man, holding a crowbar. The world seemed to go in slow motion, I felt the thump on my head and the pain coming from it. I raised my hands onto it and felt the sticky wet blood. I heard howling and realized it was coming from me, then the world went black.

STORY TWO

Chelsea clasped the book to her chest, rummaging through the rest of her belongings and chucking important things into her duffel bag. She had to get out before her father got home from the pub. She glanced at her watch, 1am. He’d be home soon, within half an hour, she had to get far away before then. She went through the things she had: two T-shirts, two pants, underwear, socks, two warm jackets, the fifty dollars she had saved and her diary. Yep, that was all she needed. She ran down the hall of her house, filling up a drink bottle with water and stuffing the rest of her bag with food. On the table next to the door, she grabbed her lip gloss and the spare change in a dish, as well as the spare key. Then she opened the front door, put on her shoes and made her way out into the dark night.

Dear Diary,
Last night I ran away from home. I miss Mum so much and dad is becoming unbearable. I never thought I’d say this, but I am terrified of my own father. I do love him, but I am afraid he will kill me if I go back! I have to get far away from him. It’s morning now diary, 6am to be precise. At least it’s summer, so it’s not cold. I’ve just got one of my jackets on. The shed keeps the wind and rain out anyways.
I don’t know where I’ll go next, all I know is that Dad can never find me, never EVER find me.

STORY THREE

PROLOGUE

I think I shall never forget Angelica Ingrid Sanford. Especially that fateful day when she was murdered. I still remembered her beautiful black and multi-coloured hair she always had cut in that beautiful style, her golden brown eyes and her smile that lit up the whole world and made you forget your worries. How she didn’t care what people thought of her ‘scene’ style and that she found something beautiful in each person. She wasn’t judgmental and she loved people, the environment and her life. Angel was the most lovely person I had ever met and probably ever will meet. Her murder was one of misunderstanding, of a father who didn’t believe that Angel fit into this world just because of her views. The word ‘emo’ or ‘goth’ were forbidden in his life. When Angel came home one night with her once golden blonde hair dyed black with purple, pink and blonde tips and instead of calling herself Angie or Angelica she called herself Angel, she was a devil in his eyes. He let her go with this style for about six months, hoping she’d grow out of the phase. Angel didn’t. This style was something that let her finally speak for herself. From this day, I still don’t know why he killed her. Angel never went bad, she was still kind, funny and generous. She still cared about her family and loved everything. Angel never changed, but her father didn’t understand that.
The day Angel died, my life was torn apart. Angel was my rock, the one person who I truly could depend on. She didn’t care that I didn’t follow her style. She said she was happy I had my own style. Unlike some of the other ‘scene’ people in our school, she didn’t mind hanging around with people of different ‘types’. She had friends that were ‘emo’, ‘goth’, ‘geeks’ and ‘norms’. The ‘preps’ often wouldn’t speak with her, so she didn’t like them much, but she would never judge a group of people, just the one mean person in it. The name Angel meant Angelic, and that suited her perfectly, she was an angel, a gift from above.
Angel was my best friend forever.

Thanks!
Jaymie’s book is combining with Angels’ book now, hehe.

my dad is 5 foot and my mum is 5 foot 1. i am 16 years old and i am 5 foot 7 inches taller. but i want to grow taller. i am a boy, do you think i can gain any more height naturally. if so how many more inches. should i take any HGH stuff that i find in shops.

So I’m a 16 yr old guy and I’m 6 foot 9. I don’t like being so tall, everywhere I go a lot of people stare at me and I think I’m the tallest guy in my entire school. My body looks fine and is in proportion. There is nothing wrong with my skull or anything like that. I don’t have pain anywhere, i’m not weak, and I can work out with no problem. I have low blood pressure and my kidneys are functioning very well. I weight 203 lbs and that is normal weight. So I don’t think I have gigantism.

Am I just about done growing or is there still more inches to come? Is there anything I can do to either make myself shorter or stop my growth if I’m still growing?? I want to do it naturally, not by medicine or drugs. And do you girls like tall guys?

I’m going to a public middle school next year, I’ll be in eighth grade. it’s been four years since I’ve been in a real school, since I home school, and even then it was just a very small private christian school. I don’t get out much, I have no idea what people my age even act like or do on a daily basis besides school, and am absolutely terrified of people. It’s hard for me to just walk around in a public place with other people, and when I see somebody walking towards me, I just freeze up and try to keep my eyes focused on the ground. I do have friends, but they all live far away from me. As you would expect, I have extremely low self confidence. I’m not exactly an attractive person, I have a really round chubby kind of head shape. my hair is naturally dark golden with lighter and darker highlights and mildly curly, but I straighten it because it doesn’t look good with my face shape. My eyes are one of my worst features. They’re a really deep brown, but turn red if I’m in direct sunlight, as I’ve been told my friends. But they look really fake with my hair. I’ve had some people ask me if I was wearing contacts before. I just cant get over how fake and wrong they look. My parents won’t let me get contacts, even though I’ve told them how embarrassed I am about my eyes. I have very pale skin, and freckles, but they’re barely visible. I’m a little chubby, 5’1 and around 145-150 lbs, but I actually look like I have a healthy weight because the weight is really well porportioned. I’ve tried to lose the fat but it just wont come off, I used to walk 2 miles everyday and don’t eat too much, but I didn’t lose any weight at all. I have really broad shoulders and a small head, it looks like my body is too big for my head, and I don’t think I’m going to "grow into it" or anything because it’s been like this ever since I was about nine years old. My only good features is that I have an hourglass body shape (I’m big boned though so it’s not one of the those tall slim kind of shapes), I have big boobs for my age, and my hair color. I know I’m not the ugliest person in the world, but I know and am trying to except that my looks are below average, and I also understand that it’s hard to be ugly and I’m going to get teased about it. I know looks aren’t evrything, but nobody likes to be called ugly. I think I have a nice personality, my friends tell me that I’m a good person, I’m very shy though and can sometimes lack compassion and have a hard time understanding what to do in most situations. However, my parents are constantly telling me that I am a horrible self centered b**ch who doesnt care about anyboy and is always using people. I try to ignore them when they say this, but it’s really starting to affect me and lower my already low confidence. And I hate Justin Beiber, Lady Gaga, Twilight, ect. In fact, I’m actually a big fan of anime, and I am completley aware that most anime fans are really looked down on. And I’m not one of those irrashonal fans whoes whole world revolves around anime (though mine partially does, since I don’t do much and rarely get to see other people) and thinks that everybody an evreything in Japan is just like it is in anime and manga. So how do I survive school? Like I said, I have a very hard time undesrtanding what to do in common situations, and am really scared of people. I know because of my looks I’m never going to get a boyfriend and am going to get teased, so how do I survive the teasing, mean girls, ect? And another really big question, how much homework is there? I don’t think I’ll live through school if I have 5 hours of home work lol.

I am an 18 year old male, 6’1, 157 pounds. I started puberty a bit late at age 15. so yeah I guess you can call me a "late bloomer". I hated it. my voice didnt change until my junior year in high school. I was about 5’7-5’8 throughout high school until about summer of my junior year. then I just shot up to about 6’1 which is where im at now. girls always wanted "older" looking guys that were "hot" or "sexy". I was always just "cute" and my confidence talking to girls always suffered. it makes me so f’ing mad. Im guessing Im not done with puberty yet so I have a few questions that I really need answered, PLEASE!

1. I look really young for my age. when people first meet me, they think that Im only about 15(16 at the VERY most). It really pisses me off and has been frustrating my entire life. will I always look young forever?

2. I really want facial hair.I have a little bit of a mustache but you can really only see it when you look closely. also, I have about two dark hairs that are coming on my chin but other than that, there is basically nothing. will I grow any facial hair or am I doomed forever?(oh and please don’t say "shaving is a pain in the butt and you should be happy you dont have any")

3. My penis is 6 inches hard. yes, i know thats average size but Im wondering if it will grow anymore? Its not very thick either. I can put a condom on and it wont fall off, but I can fully fill out the condom tightly. will the girth of my penis get larger as well?

4. Like I said, Im pretty tall, but I have a problem. My legs are REALLY long and make up most of my height. my upper body is short and makes my whole body look weird.also my arms are really long as well and I hate it. will my upper body grow anymore?!?

5. I have a little bit of hair under my armpits. its the dark curly kind, but its not a lot compared to my friends. will i grown any more hair there??? also, I have a lot of pubic hair all around my penis and on my testicales, so I think im done there. but my legs(especially my thigh area), chest and butt, is really smooth with almost no hair. is it just a result of genetics or will I get hair over time??

6. My shoulders arent really wide at all. my biceps look like they are wider than them. its really annoying and Im wondering if they will get wider naturally over time? also, my waist is REALLY skinny and always has been. will my waist get bigger? and another thing, I have always been weaker in the weight room compared to everyone else, will I get stronger over time? especially my chest, I still have "puffy nipples" or "man boobs". will they every go away??? Its embarrassing and Ive had them for a while. they should go away after puberty right??

please answer each question in as much detail as you can!! thanks in advance to all of your help. I really appreciate it.
oh and 3 months ago I started working out 6 days a week. Ive seen some decent results in strength.

I am 3/4 American, 1/4 French. I have ivory skin, cerulean-blue eyes & naturally golden blonde hair [now dyed tree bark brown]. I’m tall & slim, but as a baby as was just long & plump. I’ve always been kind of shy and reserved. I’ve been playing the piano for 12 years. I love music & writing.

If you were my parent & you’d have known I was going to grow up to be like this, what would you have named me?

The new school year is coming up soon (the 30th) and i really want to change up my look. I’m bored with my layered brown straightened hair (its naturally curly). i would just wear it curly but i don’t like how short it gets when it curls and it doesn’t curl on the top. (any idea on how to get it to curl on top too? i try scrunching it up there but it still doesn’t work!) I also only wear foundation, mascara, face lotion, and a little bit of blush. I have fair skin and blue eyes so i never experiment with eyeshadows in fear that it’ll look too dark for me. I’m also looking to switch up my style a bit. I still plan on wearing stuff from my normal stores (usually Hollister, Abercrombie, Forever 21. stores like that) but i tend to get a lot of blues and gray’s so im looking to switch up the colors. so, my questions are: how should i do my makeup? what do you think i should do my hair? (pictures if you can please) how do i get the top of my hair to curl and grow? and what colors do you think would look good on me? I’m skinny (about 120 lbs) and tall (about 5’7"ish). any ideas?

sorry theres a lot of questions in this. just trying to get the best out of my 5 points. haha.

thanks in advance!

:)

What can I do? I still have a little bit of growing left (I just turned 14) I have the body for it besides the height, and I am willing to do whatever it takes to be successful. I know I can do it, but I just don’t know how yet. I have a natural feeling for the camera (I pose naturally great) but I am not tall enough :( What can I do to become a model anyways? What agencies hire to shorter girls?

Thanks in advance!

ok, I’m really really thin and really really tall! My hair is about elbow length and I have enough of it for about three people, so it’s really really thick. I’m thinking about getting it cut….
This summer I’m gonna dye my hair green (I’m positive and I don’t want to hear complaints) but my hair is naturally a really really dark brownish-black. Should I get it cut or let it grow longer? Thank you!
Don’t say anything bad about me dyeing my hair green. It’s my decision! (I watch a lot of anime though)

I’m 16 and she’s 14. We’ve been seeing each other for almost 2 years. I’m 5’6 and I don’t expect to grow much more. My dad is the same height and my mom is 5’2.
My girl comes from a tall family. Both of her parents are tall. When we met she was about 2 inches shorter than me and then she grew alot during the last 2 years and now stands 6’0 even in her barefeet. And she’s still growing! She likes to tease me by wearing high heels to tower over me even more and she stands close to me and look down on me to tease me and make me feel funny. She has one pair that’s so high that when she wears them I come up to her shoulder. I don’t mind it that much but she likes being naturally taller than me and I like her being taller than me now. I like her and she likes me but often we get stares and some people make comments. How do we deal with it?

First off, I think "everybody" knows it’s genetics. No need to point it out any more than usual.
Well, I’m a girl. I’m in 8th grade, got my period in 5th. My doctor told me I probably would never grow. BOY was she wrong! I’m so happy I’m growing! Just a few weeks ago, my feet got bigger by a full shoe size. Then I grew a bit taller, and I still am. I drink a lot of milk every day now, and am trying my best to eat healthier. My school makes me exercise super hard and I love just running/playing sports or whatnot everyday anyway! I also love stretching, so I also do that too. I’m really getting good sleep in now also. I sleep at 8 and wake up at about 5:30 naturally. So 9 and a half hours of sleep. You think there’s any more (haha, as if I don’t have enough!) ways to increase my potential? When my mom was younger, she had a size 8. She’s 5’5". My feet are almost size 9 and a half now. So maybe that means I’ll grow taller than her? I mean, my older brother grew taller than my dad. My older sister, I think, maybe neglected what she did/does since she’s 18 and only 5’2" and a half, and I’m just growing haha. For my race my family is pretty tall. Sooo.. you think there would be any more I can do or am I doing just fine? Thanks!

hi, im 15 years old. 16 in 5 month time. at the moment i am 5ft 3/4. ive recently grown an inch or so. i weigh about 7 stone 5. or something. so im ok for my height. its just, when im out with my friends they are all so much taller than me, like 5ft 6/7. is the average. and the tallest wud go up to 6ft + tallest at 6ft 5.
then, i have other friends, these friends are about 2 years younger than me, like 13 turning 14. and they are around the same height as me. yet for one who is 5ft 8. im just so worried about my height. i feel like the odd one out. and a need to be tall, my family are all about average, but every time i see them I NEED to be taller. i try so hard to improve my posture etc. but im like up to 4 inches off them. im taller than most of the women tho, but i want to be a man. it worries me alot. my mum says i will be the same as my father, who is 5ft 9. my mum is about 5ft 2/3.
another thing, recently i took an excersise plan to increase my height, it may sound weird but, ive actually grown an inch in a space of 2 week of the exercise, it has increased my posture alot. and people have noticed a change. its just soo annoying. is there anything i can do to improve height quicker or something? naturally
sorry for writing alot, its just something big on my mind.
thanks.

I had a dream last night that kind of freaked me out and I really just want to know what it means.

The dream started off with me in a church with my sister I don’t really know what we were there for but we walked up this really long stairway and into this small room. After we got into the room some one ran into the room and told us my father had died from a heart attack waiting at the hospital for my brother, naturally I cried and rushed over to the hospital only to find out it was a joke and that my father was fine. before I knew it I was at a school wrestling with one of my friends (who just happens to be my ex-boyfriends cousins boyfriend). We were wrestling over this bag of candy and kind of flirting at the same time just kind of in our own world even though there were a lot of people around. Eventually we rolled into my ex-boyfriends sister. She was sitting indian style on the grass eating a bag of all blue-berry skittles (which is weird because I don’t think their is a such thing) any way she wanted to know what we were doing and why we were wrestling and we both kind of played it off like it was nothing. So we got up off of the ground and walked away and ran into another girl who was also eating a bag of candy (I can’t remember what kid though). We went back to wrestling on the grass and fighting over a single blue skittle when we rolled into my ex. He kind of looked at me weird and scolded the guy. (My ex-boyfriend for some reason was very short in my dream which was weird because he is taller than me in waking life. And the other guy was a lot taller than me, which is how it is in waking life) when we rolled into him though we both kinda had a suspicious guilty look, I had the guy in a headlock and we were just stuck there looking suspicious when my ex asked where his hug and kiss where (which is so weird because in real life we don’t get a long at all any more, we don’t talk or speak or see each other nothing.) So I gave him a one armed hug because I didnt want to let go of he headlock I had going on, he kind of pulled me though into hugging him with both arms then he laid on top of me (mind you the other guy is under me) so we ended up kind of squishing him. After that my ex got up and walked away and started talked to all these different girls and he miraculously grew hair to his shoulders almost which is weird because he always has a really low hair cut. I kind of got mad at him seeing him with the girls because he had just gotten mad at me when he saw me with his cousins boyfriend so I went to go after him but he disappeared and I ended up on this train like structure running through the cars trying to find him. When I couldnt fint him I eventually gave up got off of the train and just walked for a while then I woke up.

I’m 13 yrs old and 5’11 .. Every now and again I feel really unconfident and self conscience about my height. Because of my height and genes, I have a naturally thick frame and a curvy figure. Which I don’t like. I am too tall? Should I feel the way I do? I’m just concerned that guys won’t like me in the future cause my doc says i’ll grow another inch. Thanks!
(srry if my question is unclear.. & sorry if I put this in the wrong section)

appearance: doe blue/green-eyed, blond hair (naturally brown), skinny and tall

a 20 year old with a 5 year old daughter who is an aspiring actress
she grew up with movie star parents- so she is very rich and used to getting
everything she wants. She owns a big house and doesn’t know how to cook or clean.

Although she is spoiled and has everything done for her she is fairly kind to others
she gives to charity and is very empathetic towards others- especially children and animals.

She is very opinionated and never hesitates to give her opinion.

Occasionally she becomes a bit insane (this doesn’t happen very often- unless she wants something she can’t have)
but she tends to go as far as tying up someone and threatening them. (She did this to an old boyfriend
whom she thought loved her but he cheated)
also who should the dad be?

should I create a character or should it be a random one night stand?

Im not short but, I want to grow taller. My doctor says when Im in full adulthood I’ll be 5 foot 9 but, I still want to grow taller because I drink a lot of coffee and Im afraid it might harm my growth :| help?

Imagine that you are answering the final question from very popular quiz…and the last question is…Which is the fastest growing plant on this planet having almost the same strength as the steel? Hmmm…Maybe you cannot bring to your mind the answer quickly. Ok…But when you will hear some other amazing facts about it, you will probably remember it. The correct answer is – bamboo.
A brief introduction: bamboo is a woody perennial evergreen plant that is actually part of the true grass family. There are over 1000 species of bamboo on the earth. Bamboo can be found all over the world in varied climates, from the cold mountainous regions to the hot tropical areas. They can be found in North and South America, throughout East Asia, northern Australia, and southern Africa. Although they can grow to towering heights – ranging from miniatures to 60 meters, bamboo is not actually considered a tree. Bamboo along with being one of the tallest grasses in the world is also the fastest growing plant in the world, capable of growing up to 1 meter per day!
In addition to these characteristics, bamboo also boasts incredible environmental benefits. Despite its lowly reputation, bamboo may be the strongest stuff on the planet. Its growth pattern makes it easily accessible in a minimal amount of time. Bamboo provided the first re-greening in Hiroshima after the atomic blast in 1945.
A grove of bamboo returns 35 percent more oxygen into the air than an equivalent stand of trees. By taking in more carbon dioxide and emitting more oxygen bamboo naturally battles global warming and climate change. Bamboo does it year around because it is an evergreen. Fuel made from bamboo would have a neutral carbon dioxide impact because any fuel made and burned from bamboo will release the same amount of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere that was consumed by the bamboo while it was growing. In an age ridden with fuel wars, and an ever-declining ozone layer, natural products like bamboo have taken a front scene in the international energy crises, primarily for production of renewable ethanol and diesel.
Bamboo is exquisite component of landscape design. Its anti-erosion properties create an effective watershed, stitching the soil together along fragile river banks, deforested areas, and in places prone to earthquakes and mud slides.
Another important benefit of bamboo cultivation is that it helps sustain China’s endangered panda population. Giant pandas usually eat only the four or five kinds that grow in their habitat of southwestern China.
Bamboo is strong–it’s one of the strongest building materials in the world. Yet despite its strength, when made into clothing, bamboo is softer than the softest cotton and smoother than the smoothest silk. The bamboo fiber is eco-friendly, without any chemical additives. It takes 150 grams of chemical fertilizers to produce one cotton t-shirt. In contrast, bamboo requires very little water because it is 300 percent more absorbent than cotton and it requires no harmful pesticides or insecticides. In addition, growing bamboo actually enriches the soil with nutrients while growing cotton depletes it. More importantly, bamboo fiber is a unique biodegradable textile material. As a natural cellulose fiber, bamboo fabric can be 100% biodegraded in soil by microorganisms and sunlight. The decomposition process does not cause any pollution in the environment.
What other about bamboo? Thomas Edison also successfully used a carbonized bamboo filament in his first experiment with the light bulb.
In Limon, Costa Rica, only the bamboo houses from the National Bamboo Project stood after their violent earthquake in 1992.
It is interesting also that…bamboo furniture is light, durable, and affordable…bamboo shoots provide nutrition for million of people worldwide. In Japan, the antioxidant properties of pulverized bamboo bark prevents bacterial growth and it’s used a natural food preservative….current research point to bamboo’s potential in a number of medicinal uses, especially in cure of some types of venereal diseases and cancers…bamboo is a mystical plant as a symbol of strength, flexibility, tenacity, endurance, luck and compromise. Throughout Asia, bamboo has for centuries been integral to religions ceremonies, art, music and daily life.
With time and dedicated research, perhaps our future will be a bit brighter due to the widespread use of bamboo. We will be not surprised to see a bamboo plantation pop up in a field near us!
