Advice Column
I have always had a niche for giving advice, it's one of those things that just comes to me - something I was born with and born to do. I love helping others and have been proven to be good at it. Now, this brings me to something I'd like your feedback on, before going through with.
I have been considering starting an advice column, right here on my Xanga. You would send me your burning questions through messages or comments, I haven't decided which one yet, and I would choose so many to answer and post it here on my blog. And I would continue this weekly, or maybe so many days a week (another thing I'm not quite sure about).
As far as sending me questions, I'm thinking (that is, if this whole thing works out) that sending questions in comments isn't such a good idea. "Why?" you ask. If you post your questions in comments, everyone will know who you are. Therefore, it will not be an anonymous process - which could pose as a problem. Where if questions were sent through messages, I would be the only one seeing your question and you could tell me specifically if you want your username or a nickname posted. So you would have more options this way. But I'd like to know your opinion. Questions sent through messages or comments? Or both?
Now, this would be the biggest and most important question - Good idea or bad idea? Something to try?

Questions through messages.
I think this is a good idea as something to try. There's a lot of people out there looking for direction :)
this is geniusÂ
so i'm on a badminton team at school, and my friend wants me to be her partner though she isn't that good. I would rather play with this other guy. How do i tell my friend that? Or which one should I pick? My friend can be unreasonable and she cries easily.this is a hard blog forum to pull off, readers struggle with inputting questions. Though I do think that messages are the way to go with it, if you are going to brave the waters.
I seem to be rather well at giving others advice, but sometimes I struggle to help myself. I can do someone else's makeup well, but then my own won't be nearly as good. This is a wonderful idea, and if you decide to go through, it will be wonderful to know that I can come to you if I need a little help! This is very considerate.
