Hey girly girl! One tip that I've learned is to look above people's heads when you're talking, rather than looking directly at them. Also, make sure to get enough sleep the night before, and rehearse so that you feel prepared Smile

Also he will ask people to take something to the office and if I offer to do it he ignores me and asks someone else ! I try to pretend it doesnt bother me but it really does HELP!

 

 

Hey girly! I would definately talk to teach one day after school, and let him know how you feel! He should respect you for coming forward and making an effort. If things still don't improve, you can always make an appointment with the principal and let them know what's going on.

I have moved before and it was never this hard! It was always easy for me to make friends!

Hey girl, I'd suggest getting involved in clubs and sports outside of school. Realize too that it def takes time to make friends. Just continue to be outgoing and be involved. You're def on the right track.

MOD,
there's this winter dance coming up at my school, and everyone has to vote for a prince or princess. everyone is already saying who they wanna pick and its really bringing me down. they all agreed to picks my best guy friend. i kidda like him and i know he likes me but the kids at school really don't think of me as a "princess" for a dance. its not like everyone hates me, i know almost everyone at school and im kind to most of them but mainly what the kids are looking for is who looks the best. I'm not the kind of girl who obsesses over clothes or hair, and it just doesn't seem right to go over the top for this event. im starting to get jealous because the other girls running for "Princess" are more likely to win than me so i really don't understand why i would run if i am gonna lose. what should i do?? Help




Hey girl, know that just because your BGF wins prince and some other girl wins princess, it doesn't mean they're destined to be together. It's just a silly popularity contest that only matters that one night. Let it go and be yourself. Your BGF likes you for you. You don't need a crown to win his affection.

Some responses sound slightly... conceited. I don't mean to sound rude, or offend others for that matter, however, some of the girls posting comments are flaunting their popularity, while also claiming to be a 'nerd'. Some people are actually contradicting themselves... This is mostly because some are saying that they are 'the most fashionable and pretty person in your grade who is also coincidentally popular' (putting yourself on a pedestal... odd) and later saying that you don't think you are better than others, when you actually said it.. And calling yourself a nerd and popular, when nerds aren't popular (stereotypes suggest this--a nerd is one! =)People say that 'you earn it', but I didn't see anyone telling the girl how she can get some friends, which seems to be what she needs right now. Tell her how she CAN earn popularity. Sure, she said it as if she were a queen bee, but let's be here for her. We're all friends here, right? ;]
Just a food for thought.

I was at a meeting for a club today at school and there have been some issues. Were supposed to be paying money to go on a trip and kids have been researching and it doesnt make sense what she and he have been charging us (about $60 more than they should per student) and when I asked them a question they started yelling at me in front of the entire group. I didn't think it was an unreasonable question to ask where my money was going and I made sure I was calm and polite when I asked, but they jumped down my throat and wouldn't let me speak. My mom knows about it, but I don't want to go on the trip anymore now that they've embarrassed me in front of 20 other kids. What do I do?




Hey girlie,

Since a lot of money is involved, I think this is something your mom should handle. Explain the entire situation to her from beginning to end, then see if she can clear up the issue and find out where your money is going. You're right - you deserve to know what you're paying for! And if things don't add up, then it might be best to pass on this trip. But don't let embarrassment keep you from having fun. You asked questions you had a right to ask and there's nothing wrong with that.

all the guys in my grade call me "forehead" its really stupid and i guess they just couldnt find a better insult.. but its really aggravating when they call me that. i have given up saying anything back but i just dont know what i should say. i dont want to say something like "you are hurting my feelings when you say that" because i know what will make them say it more. what should i say?




Hey girl. Instead do the opposite. Turn around and very confidently say, "I know! It is big, isn't it? I really like it actually! I think it's awesome." Once they realize that you aren't bothered by it, they will stop. Just be really enthusiastic and serious about liking your forehead. They just want to bring you down. But once you act like they are doing the opposite of bringing you down, they will be so confused! You will walk away laughing. Plus, all of the great beauties have distinctive attributes. One of my friends was just on a model reality TV show and she was always made fun of for having a big forehead. Tyra Banks told her that she loved her big forehead and that she would make a great model! You're in good company, girl. Hope this helps! Keep me posted : )

Girl, I am a nerd and proud of it! Your RIGHTFUL PLACE??? Who said you had any "right" to be popular? "Popular" is a status, a label. Who cares about your status? You want to be known as the nice, open girl that has a lot of friends. That's who I am at my school and I'm respected for it, even though I am a nerd and was born to be a nerd. I don't wear makeup, I'm your average jeans-tee-sneakers and nothing-special kind of gal... and I'm still well-liked and respected. Relax, smile, and talk to people! Be welcome and open to new people. That's what people will really remember.

Does that mean I think of myself as better than ANYONE ELSE???? NO. I earned it. I DON'T WEAR ANY MAKEUP and I have a good personality and STYLE. You earn popularity, you work for it. I just happened to be one of those lucky people.

Maybe try telling them that youre just writing anime online with some other anime fans. By telling them what youre doing theyll stop being suspicious and they wont need enough details that theyll censor your work. Just try and see what happens. xoxo kerra

Hey girl,

I would try to de-stress before you sing. Remember that everyone's there to worship and rejoice, and not to focus on whether or not they like your singing. Plus, make sure that you have confidence! You're a great singer and you're going to do an awesome job. Continue to practice your songs — with a small audience if you can — and remind yourself that you've practiced and you're going to do well. If you start to feel yourself shake, try to remind yourself that you're confident and nobody's judging you. You also probably notice the shaking more than others. Good luck!

Hey girl,

I think the most important thing here is confidence. You have
to remind yourself that people are interested in what you have to say
and you have a lot of important information to share. Don't overpower
anyone, but if you have something to add to the conversation, don't be
afraid to say what you are thinking (as long as it relates to the
conversation and isn't mean). You don't have to be loud to be outgoing.
Make sure that you're friendly to everyone, and don't be afraid to
start conversations with people you don't know if the situation arises.
Put yourself in the other person's shoes. You probably wouldn't mind if
someone started talking to you about a casual topic. The other person
will probably be happy you talked to them!

I would try to de-stress first. Remember that everyone's there to rejoice and celebrate with you, not judge whether or not they like your singing. Also, have confidence in yourself that you're a great singer that can do a awesome job. Before you start singing, breathe deeply a few times to try to clear your mind. If you feel yourself start shaking, try to remind yourself that you're going to do great! You could also practice singing in your room or singing in front of a small audience beforehand. Also, others may not notice the shaking as much as you do.

I have tried using a tampon but i can't get it in and it hurts! What should i do?????

 

Hey girl,

I think it hurts anytime a girl tries a tampon for the first time, because you aren't used to it. Try to not be stressed out when you're putting it in, and squat down so that you can put the tampon in at an angle. You'll know when it gets to the right spot. While you'll still be holding onto the plastic or cardboard part, once you take that part out, you will not be able to see any of the tampon aside from the string hanging out. You can always ask your mom if you're having trouble - she probably went through the same thing!

Put yourself in the other person's shoes. You probably wouldn't mind if someone started talking to you about a casual topic. The other person will probably be happy you talked to them!

MODMOD
ok so my crush broke his hand and hasn't been txting me back...not even a goodnight!! I mean, I know he's busy but he used to ALWAYS say goodnight even if he got back at like 11!! and now he won't say ANYTHING! and since he broke his hand he isn't swimming (we are on the same swim team) and so I can't see him and it just seems like he hates me!! help! what do I do?

 

Hey girl, 

Maybe the reason he isn't texting is because he broke his hand. That probably makes it harder for him to text. He is also probably just preoccupied and trying to deal with having a broken hand while having a large load of schoolwork. Maybe you could try to talk to him in the hallway or online, but don't contact him too much. He probably doesn't hate you, though. Good luck!

Hey girl,


Sorry that nobody was able to get to your previous posts. 1. It's best to tone up overall, as this link says: http://www.girlslife.com/post/2010/09/03/Aim-to-Tone-Up-All-Over.aspx. Here's another link with some thigh exercises (I think the first one) and butt exercises" http://www.girlslife.com/post/2009/09/18/workout-toning-moves.aspx. However I'm not really sure if you can grow a butt - I think that's more of a genetic thing.

 

2. You can watch TV, watch movies, talk to people on girlslife.com, read magazines, read a book, draw pictures, write poetry or stories or get some fresh air outside (even though it's really cold- at least where I am).

 

3. I would be honest and let her know how you got them and that you've been using them and that you really like them. Ask if you can get more, but if she says "no," then you'll have to respect that. However, you can also politely ask why not and explain that you understand the health concerns involved, like not wearing them for more than 4 hours.

 

4. If someone asks what gifts you might want, give him or her a few suggestions, including some cheaper items and less of the really expensive items. Or, you could try to give hints, by pointing something out in a catalog or at the store.

Honestly, your first mistake is that you feel you have a "rightful place in the social hierarchy." This isn't Ye Olde England, we don't get things by divine right. Life is about working, if you EXPECT people to like you, then you're setting yourself up to be pretty unlikeable. Friendship is a two way street, you should try to meet someone half way.
