Remove first 5 or "a predefined number" of items from ArrayList?

Hi , I'm trying to remove the first 5 or "a predefined number" of items from my Arraylist. I tried the following but I noticed It removed index 1,3,5 because the each time an item is removed, the index 1 will become 0. Anyone could help me with a way to remove the index 0 a number of times? Thanks very much.     for (int i = 0; i < numberToSkip; i++)    {        newList.Remove(newList[i]);    }
