Hey guys : D
As I have written a million times, I am currently in Russia, and am "homeschooling". I have two tutors, one teaches me russian and the other has me read books usually by oscar wild or learning russian history, and such. But the problem with this is that I am looking for more of a..full learning system? Like I havn't done any algebra or math for a very long time now, and same goes for science and [biology? ] . I just need some practice, in the least, for both or more.

So I am going to look for someone who can help me with these subjects on the internet [ There are probably tutors who can teach me those, but not an the american version [ The system here in Russia is different from the system America uses for education, but it is switching to the American system, or so I've heard. ] those tutors would probably charge way too much. ]

Any suggestions on where I can find such a person?

Also, health question, I am 124 pounds 5'6, and I have been eating only ramen and microwavable meals everyday, since we have no refridgerator right now, and I know this is extremely unhealthy, so far judging from my weight and height, am I still healthy?

And at what age do periods usually stop, forever? Is there a way to stop it forever before getting to an old age when it stops? I'm just curious xD I'm sure though if there was then everybody would be getting it, at least, most people, but you never know before you ask a few stupid questions.

And and, are there different ways of straightening hair besides using the flat iron? I am having trouble with my ends being straight mostly though, they usually end up from curly to spiky, to both @[email protected]' In other words, not straight. Or is this normal? *sigh*

I have no clue on the tutoring part, but I bet you can learn math on your own. Just look for textbooks on a site like Amazon or Ebay. You could try to do that with the rest of the subjects, but I have no idea how that will work out. And, if all else fails, you could try going to a forum where teachers talk and ask them for advice.

You're healthy, according to the Body Mass Index thing..Though it can't be good to keep that up for very long...

Periods stop in your..forties or fifties, I believe. It's just whenever you hit Menopause. You could probably get your tubes tied and that should stop it. But that would mean you would never be able to have children..ever.

I'm not sure what other ways, other than a flat iron, there are. There is some sort of Japanese straightening technique that's said to last a really long time, but I have a feeling you're not going to be able to find many hairdressers able to do that it Russia. Or you could try using an actual iron, like people did long ago..

Tutoring may be harder to find. I would never let anyone tutor me unless I know them personally, so I can't help you there. Maybe you should go to a public school?
As for the health question, I think that's perfectly fine. Well, it's rather unhealthy, but it's not THAT detrimental...right?

Can you do an online school?
I've no idea if they even have them in Russia, but I'm in one and taking all the same classes people in normal public schools take.
Why can't you go to public school? Do you not know the language well enough?

Your weight is perfectly healthy, don't you worry. You're a fair deal lighter than me and I'm two inches shorter than you, but I'm still within a healthy range.

Umm... I think it stops around your 50s-60s, but I'm not completely sure.
I know that Depo-Provera (birth control shot) stops many women from getting their periods entirely over prolonged use.

Also, have you looked into hair relaxing? You get it done every six months or so and your hair stays straight for that time. The only problem with it is it's quite bad for your hair and can cause it to break. O_o;;

I`m with people on you either finding an online school or buying some textbooks and learning books and teaching yourself some things.Math is not too difficult to teach yourself or at least not for me.Your weight wait is okay for your height and you are healthy but i recommend not keeping up with what your eating right now.It stops in your forties,fifties or even sixties.But even tying your tubes and not being able to have children does not stop your period[my mom had it done]but there must be something that stops it for a certain time.Other than a flat iron i would not recommend anything because it will cause damage to your hair

Hysterectomy is the word that Vesta was looking for.
But that also removes your source of estrogen. So it's not something you'd really want to do, unless you want to start sprouting chin hairs.
And getting your tubes tied does not stop your periods. It only blocks the eggs from getting to your uterus.

Your period will stop if you're significantly under weight and malnourished. This happens to girls with extreme eating disorders.
And Menopause generally hits somewhere around fifty.
Your period may delay due to stress. Or, if you're very young and it has only recently started, it may disappear for a few months. That happened to me when I was younger. It's perfectly normal.

And your weight is fine. I'm two inches shorter than you, and I weigh 109, and I'm perfectly healthy. Not stick thin or boney. You're fine. ^^

Of course your hair is normal. Hair does what hair wants.
I've heard that blow drying your hair a certain way can make it straighter. I've yet to test this for myself though, because I'm afraid of the hairdryer frying my hair. >.<
