ok so check it out

something's wrong with the battery, i have to jumpstart it every 5 min, i dont think its the alternator tho cause it runs fine when its on but when i turn the car off, the life gets sucked out of the battery like nothing, than i cant start it. and when i drove it with the lights on i revved it to like 2 rpm and the lights were kinda flickering brighter than normal, could it be the battery terminal thingy's? cause they are looking kinda crappy, not the negative one but the positive one

batteries die.

i got the battery like 3 months ago

Clean the connectors and battery poles, then add some batterygrease to the poles.

It does sound like somekinda loose connection. But you may want to make sure nothing is left on, check any lights, amps, devices, etc that are run straight to the battery and might be left on and draining it.

bring it to your local car parts store (checkers, advance auto, etc etc) and have them give you a FREE alternator and battery test, they can tell if its just a bad battery or if you need a new alternator, good luck!
