:.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).

advice

i was just wondering if there were like "home remedies" Alsooo, i loooovee junk food, but i also try to eat healthy foods whenever i get the chance.
hope i gave you enough info to help me

Okay, well. Here goes:

Ask your parents to keep the junk food at stores. Don't have them buy the junk foods. They're bad for you anyways and a waste of money. Ask your mom or dad to buy veggies and fruits and low fat yogurt and any healthy snacks you can munch on (like whole wheat crackers with low fat pb, low fat cottage cheese, etc)

When they bring the food from the store, wash/cut the veggies/fruits into bite size pieces and store them in plastic baggies--one serving per bag. Place them in the fridge on the shelf that is eye level to you. That way, you'll be more likely to grab the bag and walk away rather than finding that left over pizza from the dinner before. Do that with the crackers and such as well. The more prep you do when the food comes home, the less you'll do when you want to eat.

Also, when you're bored, try playing computer games (I know, not the best) or read or write, watch tv/movie, listen to music, talk with friends, make wood houses--whatever you find entertaining =)

good luck!
