about




My name's Jennifer, but I'm more commonly known as Jen or Sporkster. I love lots of things/people including God; volleyball and soccer, my two favorite sports; and cheese. I also love Pi, but that's a story for another day.

I've been answering questions on Advicenators for over three years now, so I'm pretty experienced with it. I love answering questions and helping you out anyway I can, so if you've got a question, just ask me!

Ask me about: Christianity, athletics, physical fitness, love-life, relationships, friendships, HTML queries, book suggestions, music suggestions, musical theory, history, English (or Spanish) grammar, Paint Shop Pro 8, skin problems, sports injuries, "punk" fashion, nutrition, etc.

Q: My mom is bananas.

She doesn't listen to me. Ever. Like, for example, today, I asked her to pick me up a block away from school. She was standing RIGHT out front, so I told her how appalled I was at her behavior and she cancelled my manicure. Her excuse was 'You have a friend'. Yeah, a friend that I carpool with every day.

I always get in trouble, and this summer is going to be full of fun, so i need ways to deal witht his. Thanks!

A: Maybe you shouldn't be so embarassed of your mom? Just a suggestion. I mean, if my mom was nice enough to pick me up at school AND set up an appointment for a manicure, I wouldn't mind where she picked me up. Jesus, kids nowadays are so ungrateful.

Anyways, how is she bananas? I guess cancelling your manicure was a little off on her part, but what was her reason for doing it? If you actually just said quietly that you wanted her to pick you up a block away from now on, I can understand why you think she's bananas. But if you yelled at her, then that's your fault.

What're you always getting in trouble for? Maybe you should try being nice and not getting in trouble so you CAN have fun this summer. Once again, just a suggestion on my part.

To sum it all up: Sure, parents can be "embarassing" some times, but they love you and go way out of their way to do stuff for you. Appreciate that.
