I really want to buy my own computer. I have been saving my money for a few years now and have around $900. Now that I have enough for a computer, I’m starting to freak out. Should I really spend all that money at one time?

 

Good for you for saving so diligently, babe! When it comes to spending your hard-earned moolah, only you can decide what’s worth your entire savings…or even a small part of it. If you’re having second thoughts now that your goal is within reach, consider your quandary carefully. It might be helpful to go to a computer store just to see what your money could buy. If you want to spend all $900, you could probably get a pretty good comp. But for a fraction of that—say just a couple hundred bucks—you could purchase a portable netbook or tablet.

 

Also consider the other savings goals that are coming up. If you’re going to be driving soon, you might want to keep saving the money you make for a car. If there’s a pricey camp you want to enroll in during the summer, your money could go toward that. Or, you could keep it handy for college.

 

As I said before, only you can decide what to spend your money on and when to spend it. If it’s burning a hole in your pocket, consider purchasing something fabulous now and saving the rest for later. Or, divvy it up on small purchases—a little for an MP3 player, some more for a cute pair of boots. The choice is up to you!

MOD!!!!! MOD!!!!! MOD!!!!
Hi there! I'm on a travel basketball team and everyone on my team thinks I'm the sweetest person alive. Everyone except Kimmy, that is. She since ive made the team, (three years) she has been so insanely rude to me. I don't know what her deal is. She always makes faces when I do something good, passes horrible to me purposely, and has stepped on my feet so many times, it's hard to count. I don't know if she thinks I'm weird, got good, or overweight (she is the smallest stick figure person I've ever met). I'm sick at tired of her rudeness. I've told my coaches, (she'll say she's "sorry", but still continues to do it. It's really getting old! How do I stop this? Please HELP!!!!!
~Magz




Hey Magz,

I know this sounds like a cliche answer, but it's true - you need to ignore her behavior and show her it doesn't bother you. You said EVERYONE else on the team thinks you're great. So why let one girl drag you down? Instead, surround yourself with all the other girls who appreciate you and treat you well. If she makes a face at you or says something nasty, roll your eyes and walk away to your friends. Share a joke with them and laugh it off. She's being negative because of some problem in her own life that makes her feel bad - so she's transferring that to someone else. But don't let her win! You don't deserve to constantly be mad at practice, so stick with your girls and be the happy gal you are Smile

I have to deal with IBS and hypohydrosis(excessive sweating EW) since last year. What should I do?
MOD...MODDDDD
I smell so bad wherever I go, and people always back away, but don't say anything. even my parents say 'I'm thinking that in my brain.' Mental problems? Nope. I don't.
To make situations worse, I have sweating too, and have to apply deo. like, 10 times a day.(Exaggerating) but people smell it one way or another.
I used to be the most cleanest person on earth, but I'm like sooo bad now. What should I do?




Hey girl! If you are really having problems go to the doctor to get checked out and they can give you a prescription deodorant that will work better than the generic brands.

Hey girly, I Would Save it! Open up a savings account and put it in their! No worry's if it is safe! It depends on how much you want one, And how long you have been wanting one. It really counts on YOU. Hope this helps!
