I had a huge fight with this boy I know. Now this other boy is in a fight with me. My friends told the principal, and now we have to work things out. I’ve been there a couple times because of other fights.
 
Dear Fighter,

Some things are worth fighting for, but life is easier when you don’t get in so many fights. If someone acts mean, it’s his problem, not yours. If someone acts like a jerk, walk on rather than saying something nasty back. Think about the kind of person you want to be. To end a fight, you can say “I’m sorry” or “I’m ready to get beyond this.” Once you get better at keeping the peace, you won’t get sent to the principal and get mixed up with kids looking for trouble. Is there someone you can talk to? What’s making you angry may not be other people, but something inside you that hurts.

MOD MOD MOD! Okay so I'm on my high school cheer team and we have a compitition on Wednesday. The problem is, they put me in a position I'm not good in, in other words, I suck at it. Today at practice, a bunch of the other cheerleaders were trying their best to explain to me how I can do better, but it doesn't help much. One girl is really mean and yelled "get her out of that spot she sucks switch her!" It didn't hurt me at the time, but I'm scared she will do something worse if I fail at compitition. If I don't nail it, the whole pyramid can't do it. A lot of pressure is on me. The more advice (and threats) I get, the worse I do cuz I feel pressured. I don't know what to do, I'm really scared for the next two practices and compitition. I'm a good cheerleader, I can tumble and everything, but I'm feeling pressured and having second thoughts about how good I am.

 

 

Hey girly girl! It's not right at all that this girl is being mean about it. Cheer is a hard sport, and just because you're not the best at one position doesn't mean that you're not good at the others. I would definately talk to your coach, and tell her how uncomfortable you feel in the position. Tell her your concerns, and let her know that you don't want to let down the team. If this girl keeps intimidating you, then I'd tell the coach about that too...

Hahaha. Boy do I know what that's like. I have friends that are idiots and tell the principle and I get TOTALLY mad. Friends shouldn't get in the middle of a fight unless it's physical.
I can be a mean girl if I want and if you want to get on my Hate List then good luck having a good time.
I've been in a physical fight with a boy but he ended up getting hurt. And they say boys are stronger than GIRLS?!?!? What the heck!!!
Tell me what you think on my profile girls! BLOG IT OUT!!
