about

Heyo.
I love my life because I believe that I live my life to the fullest and cherish every moment of every day (despite how boring some days may be =P).
I am only 17 (going on 18), but have grown more and learned more than some people a whole lot older than me. I have gone through many chapters of my life and also changed like a chameleon, but believe that I have finally found my color. Despite any religious background someone might have, I just give my advice through advice I have been given by reading the bible, listening to peoples problems (you learn alot of things by listening to your own advice), and also listening to public speakers of many aspects.
I am not here to be a hypocrite or as a person has once said *to promote my site*, but I am more so here to help.
I believe that I have a talent for giving advice to people. I do not take personal offense to anything someone may say because I believe everyone is entitled to there opinion as I have been as well.
My promise to you, even all those that I may not know, is to be honest and use my past experiences and knowledge to help you through whatever you may be going through from problems at home to how to make a delicious cake frosting =D
I hope that all I say may help you, but if it does not, do not be upset or resentful, just keep looking for the answer that you may be searching for. Afterall, If I dont state it, it may have been in front of your face the entire time.

With love,
Kori

ok.....there is a school dance coming up and I really wanna go sooooo bad!!!!!!!!I totally skipped the last dance because i had a track meet to go to. i want to go to this one but i have almost no friends, so if i go, it will be really awkward because i dont have a whole crowd around me. I'm in 7th grade, and most of my friends are 9th grade boys, but they dont usually go to the dances. and i thought about bringing my stepsister but I know she'll get all the attention from the boys because shes in 11th grade and she dances like shes all that just because she got a fatty and a big chest size-----and she always rubs it in my face.(not literally) What should I do??????

Go to the dance and get your groove on! If you want to go to the dance then go! You don't need a BIG group...dancing is dancing. If your step sister goes, it doesn't automatically mean that you won't get attention. I have a feeling that you are a shy type of person so if you want some more attention, just try to break out of that shell that you might be in, and you will be surprised at how much confidence you will gain. Remember - A dance is a dance So go have some fun! I hope I helped.

ok here is the story..i was love this guy name jon.. he goes to a different school..but i saw him every once & a while..well his friend cody does go 2 my school and i talk 2 him a lot ..well he told jon that i was going around saying that i love all these other people..& jon got mad at me & said hes not but i no he is .. & i found out the other night that cody told jons mom that i thought he was sooooooo hot n stuff n jon was laughing... & i dunt no what to do..( by the way we dont go out ) ( but we talked on the phone n hugged & kiss & stuff like that ) now ..i saw jon the other night n we was giving me such an atitue that it was pissing me off..n i went 2 give him a hugg n he liked push me away usually he would hugged me back..i got mad at cody n i havent talked 2 him in a while..now what should i do..cuss cody out 4 lieing about me or what.. & what to do about the whole jon thing..im so upset about it .i really need help ill rate higghhh !!!

If all the thngs that Cody has said isn't true then you shouldn't be worried or anything like that. Yes, you might be a little upset, but don't go too drastic as to give up a friendship. I know you probably already tried to talk to Jon about it, but you should probably try it again and if Jon doesn't believe you then that is just his problem so basically just tell Jon that if he doesn't believe you then there is nothing you can do about it, you tried. I hope I helped.

Ok my mom hates it when I swear.. and I always do. I tell her to get over it and usually I am jking about it.. All I say is frickin and she bitches at me.. i tell her it is not a swearword but she still bitches.. I am 14 by the way.. plz right back ur the bestestestest

Well, Just try and stop saying that word. Everybody has arguments with their mothers and their mothers don't always agree with what they say. No matter what you do your mom is always going to find something to argue with you about, its just how most moms are. Just tell your mom that you try not to use the "bad" language, but its just hard and maybe she'll understand. I hope I helped.

Ok...well I met this guy online and we're really good friends now and somehow he got my cell phone number. Well one night he called me and we talked on the phone for a while but it was like a free call because i have free long distance and free after 9. So does anyone know if it still shows up on my phone bill? Because my parents are all like "don't talk to people on the internet you don't know" and they would freak and want to know who I'm talking to in other states and junk. So what should I tell them if it does show up on the bill?

Yes, every number that you dial gets put onto your phone bill, Do your parents check the numbers? If you don't want them to know that you were talking to someone over the internet, you could always tell them it was someone from your school that moved away, HOWEVER...I STRONGLY RECOMMEND NOT LYING TO YOUR PARENTS. If they ask, just tell them the truth, that it was a friend you know on the internet. If they get mad simply tell them that it was only once and that you will never do it again, and then DON'T do it again. Oh, I was also wondering...How did he get your phone number? Oh yeah, and remember - Be careful with people you meet over the internet. I hope I helped.

Do you think it is possible to find "The One" you are going to be with for the rest of your life in highschool?

Yes, I do believe that it is possible to find "The One" in Highschool. I have even heard of some people that have known each other all of their lives and have been together all of their lives. However, This answer is different to everyone, Do you think this is possible?

Sorry it's long, but I thought I should give some detail. Okay, I have this teacher that hates me, because I talk a lot, and I have a loud mouth (like not purposely, but I can't whisper) and I annoyed her and gave her a mad migrane on purpose because she told a friend (who at the time I was in a fight with) that my grades were slipping, that I had drinking problems, and that I was suicidal (only 2/3 true) and to talk to me. And I thought it was rude and that the teacher should have come to me. So ever since I have always acted to her the way she deserves. Well she's the basketball coach, and today at the game she was kind of upset and she made a face that I only ever saw her make at me and I started laughing and I said something to my friend saying the look on her face was funny. Well I have a loud mouth and she has GOOD hearing and she said something to me, and I accidentally blurted "well the only time I ever saw you make a face even close to that is when you were looking at me" and I apologized for saying it, then I was like "You know what... I'm not sorry, I should never apologize for saying what I feel because that'd be like apologizing for being real" (I heard that quote before) and my friend on the team said that the teacher was saying junk about me to them, and that teacher was my math teacher last semester, and she's friends with my math teacher this semester, and my whenever ms M (this semester teacher) talks about ms L (last semester teacher) I make a face and say I don't like her because she doesn't like me and because she said something about me. And Ms. M (nice teacher) likes me so she tells me what Ms L (mean teacher) says about me. And what I want to do is confront ms L about it. Like I won't tell her my 'sources' but I want to say something like...(first you should know that she's in her 20s, and also that when I talk to someone I don't like I get an attitude without trying, so it's not on purpose) "You're my elder and I don't respect you, but I am going to try to say this as respectfully as I can and I will try not to get an attitude with you, but it comes naturally, I know I talk about you, and I know you talk about me. I'd rather not tell you who informs me what you say, but I'd greatly appreciate it if you say what you have to say about me to my face instead of acting like your afraid and gossiping to others." And also I might say something like..."I know that you do sometimes tell me what you want to say to my face, and I do try to say how I feel about you to your face. And if you make the effort to tell me how you feel about me when you feel it, then I will make the effort to try and politely tell you the same." And I might also say something like "To tell you the truth the only reason I started to hate you, and the only reason I annoyed you that night was because you told someone (then I'll tell her what my friend told me she said)" Also, to let you know she had my sister, and she was once really mad at me and I got fed up with her so I skipped her class and got caught the last 5 minutes. But I'll probably say something like this... because it's true... "I am going to really try to say this nicely, but I'm sick of the fact that teachers can never say what they truly feel to your face. And I also hate that all my teachers that have ever had Em(my sis) expect me to live up to her. I'm not my sister, and I might not make the same grades as her, and I definitley DON'T have her personality, so why can't teachers get over it. And please, don't tell me how you feel as politely as you can, tell me how you feel truly, don't be like "well you annoy me" be like you have a loud mouth, I have sensitive ears, you're an okay person, but you talk to much, you talk like a sailor (she's told me that before) and I don't like the person you've become." I'll be like tell me the truth. Ms. L also told my friend that drugs and alcohol have ruined my life. I'VE NEVER DONE EITHER! So what I'm really asking is that is what I've come up to say okay to say to a teacher that no longer teaches me. If I don't get an attitude while saying it then is it rude? If it's not a nice way to tell her to Say whatever she has to say to my face and not to others then what would be a nice way. Again, sorry it's long, I just felt I should explain the situation and use examples. Please tell me what you think.

I just think you need to get past this teacher. There are alot of teachers that don't like certain students because of their behavior, but don't let that get to you. If she's not you're teacher just don't worry about it and see her as having a weakness in the fact that she has to talk stuff on some teenager. If you really want to talk to her about it, just say what's really on your mind otherwise there will really be no point since you won't be saying everything that bothers you - so it will solve nothing. I hope I helped.

I have a friend that i have none for a bout 2years and I think i am developing feelings for him however he is with a good friend of mine wut the hell should i do!!-

You aren't in that rare of a position. There are many girls/guys that start to develop crushes on their friends. First, think about what you would rather have with him...a close friendship or a Boyfriend/Girlfriend status. Now, If you choose the boyfriend/girlfriend status, then you have to think about what might happen if you go out and end up breaking up...on bad terms(this can happen). Are you willing to give up a long term friendship for a short term relationship? I hope I helped.

met this guy this year and became friends with him. One of my other friends acts like she likes him, and I've asked her, and she said no. She still acts like it though, and I know for a fact he liked her at the beginning of the year and probably more than likely does still. He sometimes flirts with me but I'm not sure if thas just him being a guy. Anyway, I don't usually tell anyone when I like a guy because 1) I don't trust people because I'm nice and people used that to their advantage and 2) I don't think I'm pretty enough or good enough for them or whatever (even though I've been told I'm really pretty, I have LIttle or no self confidence) any way, I wish there was some way to find out if he liked me without having to ask him. I'm also afraid if i ask him, and he says no, it will ruin our friendship. I hear "you only live life once" and try to apply that to this, but its hard. If you could help me that would be great.

Well, there is a likely chance that your friend doesn't even like him. I have friends that are just like that, It's just that she is a big flirt. When someone is a flirt, people may think that they like that person, but they are just flirting, which some girls do very often. So, are you trying to say that you like him and are afraid that your friend and him like each other? Well, don't do any of that, "Oh I'll tell my friend to ask him" junk, because that never works, they always know. Think about this, Do you really need to know, If he likes you, don't you think that time will run it's course and destiny will show? If you don't think that, there is probably no other way, but to ask him who he likes, don't be nervous. I think you just have to work a little on your self-confidence. Ok? I hope you get through this. Plus, I hope I helped!

hey i go to Grapevine High school in Texas and i am girl age 17. Hey i have a HUGE delemia! i like this guy lets call him Billy. and i am lets call me fefe and well call the other girl dolly! ok well i like billy but he has a girlfriend named dolly(hypethectially thinking) but I (fefe) likes billy and billy kinda likes fefe but there is dolly his girlfriend gettin in the way! he wants to break up with her but then again he doesnt want to! i REALLY like him but so does dolly now there is a hole nother twist to this story too i am really really good friends with Dolly! ye i need some help where is CMS and i am desperate that is why i am askin a little kid!

Ok, first of all, I'm not a little kid, but anyway let's try and solve your problem. If "Billy" wants to stay with Dolly, but is unsure if he wants to because there is another girl involved, then I think he should break up with her. There may be a chance that you and Billy may decide to do a little cheatin and that can ruin both of your guys' reputations. Ok, now I think that you should talk to "Dolly" about Billy and explain to her the situation. One thing you really have to ask yourself is: Are you willing to possibly lose a friendship over 'one' guy? Be a friend, and please talk to Dolly, It will make things so much easier of both of you. I hope I helped.

HELP! i think im pregnant and i dont have a job or money 2 get a test 2 find out, oh and my mom doesnt know about me even losing my virginity

Well, what you need to do is just ask somebody that is close to you for some money. Did you ever think of asking your best friend for some money? Just tell her what it would be used for and Im sure she/he will be able to spot you the money. Don't worry, Everything will be fine, you can find home pregnancy tests at most Grocery Stores.Plus, you might not even be pregnant so don't worry. Hope I helped.

Okay ... my boyfriend and I have never met. Hes 18 and im only 14. I love him more then anything in this entire world and would do anything for him, but my parents dont like this. They don't even know we havent met :/
Hes coming to see me soon and then hes moving down here. But the fact that hes not here gets in the way of me being happy that im with him. I feel like im stuck in place, and im just "waiting", and waiting on nothing. I know that he loves me, and that i love him but this is killing me. Should i wait it out?

Well, Just one question: How do you know you love someone that you have never even met? People are not everything that they seem to be at first. Although, it is your life and you do it however you want, but just remember, make the right decisions!

Hi, i'm 13 years old and i'm a girl. I like this boy but he is taken already, By one of my friends. I really like him and i want to tell him but how can i without my friend not finding out?

What I think you should do is tell your friend. There is really no point in hiding your feelings, if she's your friend she should understand. Oh, one thing, even if you start liking him like crazy remember that both these people mean alot to you and you should do anything to try and get either of them mad at the other! (Telling you just in case ;)) But if it is such a big deal telling your friend, then you could just try a letter. I hope I helped!

I'm 13...There's a guy I like, and he's 14 and he's awesome. I really don't talk to him a lot because he's my best friend's older brother and I don't want to be like, "Yeah, I wanna go talk to your brother..See ya." Or anything like that. I really do like him, he used to tease me in a flirty way and he used to stare at me and we used to smile at each other, but I don't know what's going on with him now. All of a sudden he's become...hostile..or something. I said Hi to him and he was like, "Get away from me!" I have mixed emotions about him now, I don't know whether I should move on or not. My sister, who's ona never ending mission to hook us up, tells me that it was only that day he was different and that he likes me back. I can't stop thinking that maybe he'll always be like that, maybe I should move on...should I move on or keep on going for the same guy? I'm so mixed up..

Everything is fine, calm down. He is probably just going through some personal things. It's just a crush that you will be able to get over. One thing that you have to think about is that what if you two do end up getting together and break up ?(In a bad situation)Your friend may not see that whatever you thought was exactly correct. Now are you willing to possibly give up a good friendship just for a possibly meaningless crush that you might have been able to do without?

i only eat icecream about once a week. whenever i have it i get diarrhea. why is this?

One question, Are you usually able to drink milk or eat cheese? If milk does the same thing to you, it is probably something in your body that rejects dairy products. Either that or your body might not be use to the Ice Cream since you eat it so rarely. I hope I helped!

Okay i have a big problem. I have a boyfriend thats older than me. and taller. Hes 16 and im 15. He goes to a different school than what i do. Im at his house all the time to see him. He barely talks to me. How do i get him to talk to me more? Like im always shy around him and i get weird feelings in my stomach when im near him. What does that mean? Please help me. I'll rate good.

Signed Boy Trouble

It seems that you two are just in the same predicament. You are both still feel a little uncomfortable around each other. Just start off with some small talk, you'll end up creating a long conversation as you go along! That "weird" feelings that your having is just like butterflies, You must be happy with him or else you probably wouldnt be getting them! Anyway, I hope I helped you out, If you need more help just contact me!
