:.Hey x3
My name is Emily and blah blah blah.


:.I have a lot of personal, family, and friend issues of my own so a lot of times, I can probably relate to you a lot of times if you have personal, family, and/or friend issues.


:.I can offer a lot of information, help, and advice on family and friend relationships, love lives, depression, stretching/flexibility, weight loss, violin, being organized, dog training, forensics (public speaking), keeping up with school/extracurricular activities, eating disorders, writing (stories and poems), and probably a lot of other random stuff like what to drink when you eat something spicy and why.


:.Although I can help a lot of you guys on the above subjects, I don't tend to take my own advice so it can become quite an awkward/ironic/contradicting situation for me or make myself sound like a complete and utter hypocrite.


:.Hannah Whitall Smith once said, "The true secret of giving advice is, after you have honestly given it, to be perfectly indifferent whether it is taken or not, and never persist in trying to set people right." I agree 100% of it. Advice is advice and it is given when asked for. I give it and I leave it at that. It's up to the questioner/advice seeker to take it.


:.That point leads onto my philosophies in advice giving:
1. Advice is given when asked and no time else, unless your friend is about to irritate a black bear, then you should definitely advice your friend to back away and run for his or her life.
2. Advice is not critical, not judgmental, and definitely not biased. Advice is advice and should remain neutral.
3. Advice is to help, not to get 5s on every answer. As a result, my advice ends up being quite blunt and frank with a hint of rambling mixed in.

If you have general questions on the topics I can be a lot of help in (as listed above), most likely, they will be in my FORUM

If it is not, you can inbox me to request me to put it up.

:.If you want to ask me a question directly...
a)if it is not urgent and can wait a week or so, inbox me.
b)if it is an urgent question such as "I'm being eaten by a shark! What do I do???" first of all, I'm quite amazed that you can type while being eaten and second of all, e-mail me at cancel.life@gmail.com. I will answer you by midnight of that day (or if it's 11:55PM, probably by 3PM the following day).

i miss my cousin alot. we went to a family reunion today. i dont see her that much. but today she just left and went with the guys cousins. she wore heavy black makeup and creepy dark clothes. shed rather go play football and other stuff then be with me. she is older than me by a few years. i got her phone and was going through it and it was all guys and 2 girls calls numbers and texts. and her music was all dead and screaming stuff. her 'best friend' came and instead of saying hi they just huged then started kissing ewww sick. she always wears arm things with holes. then he pushed it down and it was all scares and he said shes getting better? better from what? could it be a car accident or something bad? she says she hates amos whats a amo? why does she hate them? who are they? i dont think she knows i exsist anymore we used to be best friends i thought. is best friend some kind of code word? is something wrong with her? or anything? how do i get her back? at the end she said 'i saw you watching us what did you see if you tell anyone ill die'. i know she would shed do something like that. what do i do? by myself.

First of all, you should respect her decisions to wear what she wants and what she wants to listen to. If she likes it, she likes it. You shouldn't be the one to criticize.

And she probably has a lot of guy friends rather than girls. I know that I'm the same way--I have like 2 girl friends and the rest are guys--they're much easier to get along with.

About the cuts--she cuts herself. The scars are from cutting and by saying that she's getting better, she's cutting herself less and/or less severely.

And about the "amos" I think she meant "emos" That's a label and I'm not going to get into that.

She's probably going through a stage and something's going on that's pretty bad at her house. Let it be and let her get through that stage. You have to understand that people change so don't try to keep her as the same person you last remember and want her to be. Don't criticize her and don't be rude to her [I mean calling her creepy and psycho is a little harsh].
