about

♥ Hey!! My name is Allie Ribley.♥ I'm 15 years old turning 16 in April. And I live in Springfield, Illinois. It's pretty boring and theres not much to do. That is why I am so thankful for all my friends, they keep me busy and give me things to do! :) We like to go shopping,♥ some times go see a movie, but we like to rent them better, hang out at each others houses, and party! I love to party!!♥ Some people say I am wasting my life by just partying all the time, but my theory is that you only live once, so live it how you want!! And this is how I want it, so don't tell me to change it! :)



♥ I am not single anymore! I have been dating my boyfriend, Derek Betzer, he is also 15. We both go to Pleasant Plains High School.♥ And we have been together for 3 years. He has brown hair and blue eyes.

♥

♥ My family is not so great though. Both of my parents are alcoholics, I have an older sister [20 in February] I talk to her about some of it but I don't think she fully understands because she is not hardly ever home to know what I have to go through.♥ Their drinking problems really bother me. There's not much else to say about them.



♥ I have a lot of different sites. Here they are.



♥ [ PERSONAL XANGA SITE. ]


♥ [ XANGA LAYOUT SITE. ]


♥ [ MYSPACE. ]



♥ CHECK THEM OUT!!



♥ Also, I can help you with any questions that you have! That's why I made this column. I hope you enjoy it, I try to get around to it every day! I have some other sites as well..If you want them, then you're gonna have to ask for them! =p.♥



♥ Hollister, Abercrombie, and American Eagle♥ are my life. I love pearls, and long necklaces.♥ Rings are a must. I'm a really nice person, unless you piss me off, I can be a total bitch! I speak what's on my mind. Some people don't like me for that, but whatever get over it. Don't be fake around me, cuz thats annoying. I hate bitches, but I love mine. I love glitter, ♥ and bracelets. Many other things as well. As long as your nice to me, I'll be nice back. Please don't ask me stupid questions. && we'll be okay. ♥

advice

I'm 13 and my mom is getting on my case about EVERYTHING!!! Now adays...i just wish she would leave me alone. I mean she's always watching over my back when I'm on the internet, asking who I'm talking to when I'm on IM or on the Phone...and to top it off. When the guy I like comes around she just stares and I feel uncomfortable. My question is, how do I keep my mom out of MY buisness?

-Beyond Joking

♥ talk to her about it and let her now how you feel without getting in a big fight. Let her know that you appreciate her looking out for you but you think that she is being a little to protective.
♥ good luck with it. hope everything works out!

I know alot of kids don't like their step parents but my step dad takes it to another level.


My younger sister (15) and I (17/f) have never liked him and he doesn't like us either. My mom knows that we don't like him but she thinks that he trys his hardest with us.


Well, I know what you're thinking, give him a break and you'll see that he really is trying.


I don't think so.


Last night my mom and him threw a party and my sister and I had to be there. When everyone was leaving around 3am, my mom had gone outside to say bye to everyone while my step dad, sister, and I stayed inside.


My sister and I were talking to each other about these guys we had met that night (my mom's friend’s sons). He was listening to our conversation and said, out of no where, "I don't know what boys would be interested in you two." He always says this stuff so I just told him to shut up and mind is own conversations (I know, disrespectful but it's hard to respect him).


We got into a little argument and he then told us how immature, bratty, spoiled, we are and how we think we're princesses. Jokingly, my sister told him that we were princesses, in our dad's eyes anyways. I guess that got him mad because then he went off talking about my dad and how he's the problem because he gives us what we want. He then said that if we didn't believe everything he was saying about us that we should ask our mom and grandparents on what they think about us.


After all of that, he told us about all this stuff that my dad did while he was still married to my mom like how he once slept with a hooker and how he was always at work and never home. Alot of unnecessary things that we didn't need to know and probably shouldn't have known, specially my sister.


I knew that my parents had troubles and things like that, why else would they have gotten a divorce? But who is he to tell us exactly what happened and what my dad did. I mean does he seriously think that we would turn against our dad or end up hating him or something? Or is he just jealous of him?


Like I said, I know my dad did some things (now I know exactly what) but so did my mom. But we still love him and he's great to us and is a good parent too.


After he went to sleep I went into my sister's room to get something from her and she had cried herself to sleep. When I saw that, I went to talk to my mom about what had happened because I usually just blow it off. When I told her, she didn't believe me about the names he called us and how he told us that she and my grandparents thought the same! And all she did about the part about my dad was say, "Well, at least you know the truth about your father now." She just talked about how we never once tried to be nice to him and he was trying his best. She didn't even care about the stuff he said about us or my dad.


We were nice to him before when him and my mom first started dating but he was still mean to us back then so we started being mean back. he always used to talk about my dad too.


I don't know what to do because it seems like no matter what she's always on his side. Plus he has no right talking about my mom and dad's relationship.

♥ wow. that must be really hard.

♥ honestly, i don't even really know what to say to all of that except i am reallly really sorry you have to put up with that!

♥ you shouldn't have to though, so try talking to someone you really trust. I know it will help to get it off your chest.

♥ I'm so sorry. and I hope things get better.

Sorry if this is to long for you, i just need some help. My mom has been having problems with her health lately, and she has not been doing very well. She went to the doctors about 5 days ago and she found out that she might have cancer but they are still checking, the thing is she won't know until monday or later and i don't think i can wait that long. They think she might have cancer because she has blood in her urine. It is not visible blood but they do know that it is in there. They have checked her for other things such as urinary track infection and they do not believe it is that, and i am really worried. The doctor says she is extremely scared that it is cancer. I live with my mom, i dont know what i would do with out her. If you have any info about what type of cancer this maybe if it is cancer please let me know, and i know this may sound incredibially cheesy but if you could pray for my mom that would be a huge help to. It seems like everything in her life for her has been messing up lately, and i just want things for her to be better. I would appreciate it, if you did not send me back things calling me stupid because i am doing this, i'm just a worried daughter afraid of loosing basicially her everything. Thank you so much, i rate 5's for anyone who even attempts to help.

Hi, sorry I do not have any advice for you I just want to say sorry, and I hope everything turns out okay, if you need any one to talk to about it, I would be more than happy because my dad had cancer, and my uncle also has cancer now, I know how tough it is, but seems to me, that if they can't even hardly spot it right now, they should be able to get it out soon, and everything will be okay, and it won't have time to spread, but once again, i'm sorry, try not to think about it so much, God Bless you.

My screen name is : GLiiTT3R X GLAM, i am almost always on, so just IM me sometime and we can talk about this.

Situation: My mom basically got mad because my older sister gave my little cousin glitter, and it escalated into a big fight. Evantually my mom said (right in front of my grandma and little cousin) that my sister smokes and she found her butts downstairs. I called my mom a bitch and flipped her off and ran to my little sister because she was crying. I told my mom I lost all respect in her because what she did was downright rude, saying it in front of company. Then she told my little sister that I was the one that told her (which is true, I am worried for her, but I told my mom that in trust, not so she could tattle) and now...I can't even trust her. It just, I can't believe she'd do this rude of things.

Well, now my mom is saying that all of this happened because she shouldnt have to take the dog out (the dog was practically a mini-part in the fight!) she said everybody here was wrong because she shouldnt have to come home and take the dog out (which would take less than a minute to do, plus everybody else in the house has been doing it all day). She won't even admit she is wrong! She wants an apology from us.

Should I suck it up and apologize. Am I in the wrong, because I feel awful for calling her those names. I don't know what to do...

Well you should apologize just say, mom i think we were both wrong, i was wrong for what i said to you, but i don't think that was the right time and place to bring that up. Something like that. You all should talk about it, you, your mom, and your sister together...

Good Luck, I hope everything turns back normal..

i love my parents a lot.
but sometimes they're a bit overprotective. i'm the oldest and "theyre first baby" so they dont want to "let me go."

well, sorry mom and dad, but this is starting to make me upset and annoyed.
how can i get my parents to "let go" a bit??

thx - please HELPP - i rate high

Just talk to them about it, and tell them how you feel, I know it might be hard, but in the long run its the best thing you can do. Good Luck. Allie x3

Hey. Well I'll just get to the point. Well my cousin and I think that our dads are doing pot. I know it's really bad. Well I really would like to talk to someone, and the only person I can talk to is my cousin. Can you give me some advcie on how to talk to other people? I told my brother and he doesn't even care so, well he's not very much help.

* Thanks, Alyssa

Alright, I would talk to someone that you really really trust and that would not go tell other people. Maybe a really close friend. Or even better, go tell your mom that you and your cousin are suspicous and see what she has to say. I'm sure everything will work out for the best. I hope I helped, x0x Allie.
