about
I'm Almedina. I'm foreign, and I'm pretty much ready to handle whatever life throws at me. Ha, pretty random that I go from being foreign to life,but anyways. I've had this column for about two yearsnow, and I don't update it as I should, or want to but with school and this crazy teenage life of mine, it gets pretty hard to do so. I've been giving advice to all my friends since I can remember and I love trying to help them. I'm out going and extrememly loud once you get to know me. I'm usually shy at first unless I've gotten to know you. I don't understand life sometimes. But I've got my whole life to figure out the meaning of it. I'm selfish at times, and stubborn. I care too much about things I shouldn't and not enough about the MOST important things in my life. I'm very annoyed with people at times, and tend to just block everyone out. I'm afraid to say I'm in love, but I'm not afraid of love itself. I'm myself and that's all I can be. I've gone through a lot, so I'm willing to help in whatever way I can (:
advice
okay i think every teen probably thinks the same thing at least once...are my parents doing this because "they care" or is it because they know it'll piss me off? (okay maybe not THAT thing but something along the lines of that) recently i was grounded because i took to many pics with my cam and i was talkin to "unknown" people on IM...YES i know its a bad thing! YES i know someone can be all yea im 16 and really be like 45 or something...i know all of this...but im just not scared. im also not one of those people who think oh it'll never happen to me because i very much know it could b me espically when you have....about 92 people on your buddy list that you dont know...only thins is i only talk to about...5-8 of the 92. okay still bad but whatever obviouly i dont care...right?....or do i? but any way only reason why im so mad about not being able to go on the computer any more (except when im doing homework...like im supposed to b now...)is because theres this one person okay two people i DO know who they say they are...person #1 is because i've seen the person on webcam and honestly i dont think you can fake who you are when ur live on a webcam...the other person i have their address and phone number also i've been talkin to that person for 7months so i dont think hes gonna come rape me...or something...and ya these two people i talk to about stuff i cant talk to my mom and dad about its just easier talking to people you dont know and well you become friends and i knoe everyone or mostly everyone thinks that talkin to someone on the net means nothing but you cant say that until you've been there because u CAN develope feelings for people...and now there just bein takin away and i dont know it just kinda pissed me off and i was thinkin about just going and buying a new mouse and keyboard because my parents took that away...so yea am i totally wrong in what i did and should i buy new things for the comp?
Honestly, you shouldn`t be talking to people online who you`ve never actually met before because even if you think you know someone, you don`t. I mean I used to talk to people I didn`t know either before but now everyone on my buddylist, I`ve at least seen. You may think nothing will happen but you don`t know that for a fact. Taking pictures and then sending them to people you`ve never actually met is dangerous, expecially if they weren`t appropriate [sp] pictures. Your parents have EVER right to take the computer away from you because they wouldn`t try to protect you if they didn`t care. So yes, they do care. You`re just mad at this moment because you feel it`s unfair, but really it`s only for your own good. Try to meet these people you say are your friends that you`ve never met somewhere public or ask them to come over when YOUR PARENTS ARE HOME because if they are who they say they are, they won`t have a problem with it. Just be safe.
(Rating: 5) thanks for your help. even though having some1 come to my house...my parents would kill me even if they were home...i guess there just weird like that.
