So I have a class with this girl and she’s even the same major as me. And I finally talked to her this year and we went to a campus concert together. Then she invited me to come hangout with her nerdy friends lol, then we stayed up til like 3 am talking by ourselves. But since then she hasn’t really hung out with me very much. I managed to get her to do homework with me once but that’s pretty much it. Her excuse is always that she’s busy. She’s a double major, one of which is english, which I know is pretty hard. She’s even showed me her day planner and it’s pretty booked. It is the later half of the semester so I understand having a lot to do. But my only question is, what should I do? I feel like I’m bothering her asking her to do stuff all the time. the worst thing is she’s kinda sarcastic and dry so just reading her texts can be kinda disheartening. She usually sits with me in the class that we have together, but part of that is i’m sure that I started sitting where she always sits. I even asked her the other day if she just didn’t want to hangout with me or that she was just that busy. And she said she was just that busy and she said something about being frustrated about turning everyone down. My other question is, Do you think she’s making it up to be nice as so many girls feel the need to do. Or am I just worrying too damn much.

well thanks for any help.

My Step Mother is starting to have problems with my little sister Emily regarding her behavior. Emily is almost eleven and is in fifth grade. Prior to this grade Emily loved school, performed well, was organized (wrote all assignments in her planner and kept binders organized) and took an active interest in many after school activities such as gymnastics and dance.

As of her fifth grade year, Emily began having problems with a little girl in her class named Micah. Some of the problems were that when Emily was in gym class Micah got really angry at her for not choosing to be Micah’s partner even though Emily was asked to be another girl’s partner first. Micah is just kind of rude to Emily and rolls her eyes at her for things. This behavior makes Emily feel that she’s done something wrong to hurt Micah’s feelings and apologizes to Micah even though she has done nothing wrong.

This problem has made Emily afraid to go to school when she used to love it. She says to my step mom every morning that she has stomach cramps and is sick so that she won’t have to go to school. It’s making my step mom have to struggle to get Emily to go to school every morning. (Emily’s school is very small and she is unable to transfer to another fifth grade class because in her school, there is only one fifth grade class).

Other problems began happening as well. In addition to Emily being afraid of school, she has also not been able to stay focused enough to do her homework. For example, my step mom told Emily in the morning not to stay for chorus after school that day because she has other stuff to do. But Emily chose not to listen (or didn’t hear her) and stayed for chorus anyway. Emily wasn’t able to complete her homework on time and had to do more in the morning which she argued about. On the ride to school Emily had some religion work to do but she spent most of the ride staring out the window. She never used to have trouble focusing.

Emily has also developed a fear of things such as clothing because she thinks that because one time she wears a certain shirt and has a bad day, it’s because the shirt is bad luck so she won’t wear it.

As for organization, Emily claims that a voice in her head (she said she doesn’t actually hear a real voice but I guess it’s just her conscience) says that she shouldn’t write in her planner or put papers away correctly when she never had a problem with this before.

My step mom feels like Emily has completely changed from how she was before this year. I feel that she might need a counselor but we’re having a hard time finding one. I think it may also be hormones but I’m not sure.

Sorry to write such a long letter but if anyone could find some solutions to what to do to help her and my step mom because it’s really really stressful for her. Thanks

I’m very new to cell phones…I never wanted one until now…I just think that one would make my life a lot easier! But I have NO idea where to get one..and what to get. I am thinking about Cingular because that’s what my family uses and I think it’s free calling. I don’t want a plan that’s more than $40 a month…and I will only use it a few times a day…not a big phone chatter!

What do you suggest?

Oh and I have a little girl so one with a camera would be nice! And one that has a planner…where I can put in apointments and dates
Thank you for your help!
