I am writing to ask what do the following phrases mean.
1. glamour photo?
2. stick to a budget?
3. dish out?
4. when did you get your first big break?
5. It hit the charts?
6. She spent a year onstage on broadway.
7. What is the difference between via and stopover?
8. Tour guide means the person who shows people around or the book about travel or both?
9. head over heels?

Glamour photo can also mean photos involving nudity, but more 'tasteful' than pornography.
