Issues

So I'm planning on starting school next year. I went to a couple schools in the area to check 'em out and everything. And I found a school that I really liked and everything, now it's just time to apply. I'm going for a bachelors in fashion design, out of everything I would...

So I entered a tutorial in the Jump From Paper contest, and I've been really excited ever since. I really hope I win, but I had a few questions. First, are the winners picked by the best project or by a drawing? Also, how are the winners of the contests announced? This...

Never before in my life have I had confidence issues or major problems with body image. But suddenly I just can't stop thinking about my weight. I know that I am slightly above average weight for my age and size, but in no way am I drastically overweight either. All of a...

I was wondering if there is anyone else on here struggling with hypothyroidism? And if so, do you have any suggestions about the management of it that worked for you? For me this started in 2009. Within 3 months I gained 50lbs. and was ridiculously tired always! I have been on...

So, I have no problem with cleaning up my apartment... except I share it with my fiance and it seems like he does every single thing he can to avoid helping me do dishes, clean the kitchen, organize the bedroom, and tidy up the living room. I'm getting really tired of it,...

I just started a history major this semester, but since I came out of the art program, I don't really have anything super nice to wear on a regular basis. Most of my clothes are things I didn't care to get ink or charcoal on. I'm left with about 3 nice button-down shirts and...

I just found out that one of our cats was put down, because he had hyperthyroidism, which was making him starve to death. He had been part of my family for my whole life, and I don't know what to do now. Does anybody know anything on how I can get over him, not forget, but...

I'm 13 and I love thinking about the future. I use to want to be an environmental lawyer, but I might want to become an environmental journalist now. I love animals, writing ,and traveling, so I'm wondering if I should become one. I was also wondering about classes I should...

Never mind, I have found other topics about it. lol

Who REALLY knows what I am talking about!? Dance around like you did "ONE EYED ONE HORNED FLYING PURPLE EATER!" LOL ahh......... It just popped in, and now it is you tube time. Who is gonna make a project now?!!!

Hey everyone, I've just had a bad experience in Crafter To The Stars (http://www.craftertothestars.com), where a blogger I was crafting for pulled out after receiving my craft. I can't help but feel a little low about the whole thing, so I was wondering if you guys had any...

Hi There! I will be in London with school next weekend (13-16 dec) and I wonder how the ambiance is. Are there christmas trees and ornaments and stuff? And can you recomment any good places, stores or pubs?

I am going to touch on something that I feel so strongly about but do not feel I have a big enough voice to be heard about this. I just heard on the news again! about "legalizing" gay marriage. I can not stand this!!!!! First off I will never vote yes or no on gay marriage. It...

I am I high strung person. I have always been this way. However, now I am dealing with a lot more BS than normal and my stress levels have hit the roof. Its really starting to effect me and my husband. (the problem isn't with my husband.) I think my cat is even starting to...

Am I crazy or was there a contest involving button projects that was posted on the site a short while ago? I think I entered into it? I can't find it on the website so i'm wondering if it ever existed...

I've been struggling with weightloss for months now. A healthy weight for me with my bone structure and muscle mass is anywhere from 140lbs to 165lbs, and I'm currently in the 190s. I've tried all sorts of things, and I've been exercising for a half an hour at least 4 days a...

At the start of the year I set myself a bunch of goals including to jog everyday, write a book, learn music and start my own blog. I feel I've been doing well at most of them - especially the jogging. Anyway I was wondering if you guys set any goals for the year and how you...

It sounds like your 2nd child might have a learning disorder (it sounds like what i did when i was little, i was diagnosed with Autism) and im suprised the doctors didn't think it might be a neurological disorder.

I'm just so damn sick of this situation I'm in with my best friend. Alright, so there are two problems here, and they're both about the same friend I have. One: She's a total b*tch when she's trying to impress people. There was one time when she was making a new friend in one...

That’s what Swap-Bot should change its name to. I understand the need to swap with reliable people but Suck-Bot’s “Swapping” and Rating methods are absolutely ridiculous and way out of control it seems to serve more as a popularity contest than a site for people to show their...

Has anyone noticed that whenever you click on a featured project, that it takes you to a project on how to make clothing tags? So far, theres only been 2 featured projects that had the same glitch...

Mine also doesn't show. It's annoying.

So last year I took a job working retail. I had no prior retail experience and had always worked corporate but I needed a job and I wanted one that was flexable enough to work around my new found love- crafting. 5 months ago a temp position opened at the corporate offices for...

Yesterday I went to an amazing local antique shop and got my sister two birthdays presents... vintage sheet music (she sings and plays piano) and a vintage cigarette case (not encouraging her bad habit, it fits credit cards so she can use it as a wallet). The case, according...

Anyone have any nice quickie snacks?

Hey, guys. All my life, I've been known as a responsible, hard-working person. I never procrastinate, and I always get the job done, no matter how difficult. But lately my obsession with having my work be perfect has really been stressing me out. I feel like I'm working too...

I live in a one bedroom apartment with my husband. We have one closet for the whole place (no coat or linnen storage), so space is at a premium. Here is the question. It has always been my instinct to save scraps of fabric from my sewing projects. Every little bit, you just...
