I'm Sara, I'm 14 and a freshman. I live, eat, and sleep cheerleading, I'm on the varsity football and basketball squad at my school. I also am in FFA and Student Council, and just about everything I can sign up for. I love my best friend Carrie to pieces, she's awesome. I am good at answering questions about guys, God, and girlfights...and anything else you can throw my way, I'll try my best!

I'm gonna try out for Cheerleading which is really out of character for me. Its like an image change thing but what kinds of things do i work on? (link)
Hey! First of all, at tryouts, be SUPER peppy. So peppy that you feel dumb, but don't look fake. Try to stretch once a day, I always stretch my legs when I'm doing homework. Make sure you've got really sharp motions and work on jumps a lot. I do 5 of each jump every other day, when I don't have practice or a game. Also, check out cheerleading.about.com or mspineapple.com, they're both really good cheer sites. Let me know if you need any more help!

hope I helped yah!


Does anyone know any good books for teens that are kinda like the princess diaries or the sisterhood of the traveling pants series. i have run out of good books to read. help!!!! (link)
The Clique series is really good...I have only read the first two books, but they were both excellent. Also, The Diary Of a Teenage Girl series is good too...they're by Melody Carlson, I don't know the author of The Clique.

Hope I helped!


I'm getting braces October 3rd and I need help. Do they hurt? What color bands should I get? (I'm kind of preppy, brown hair and eyes.) What should I eat afterward? And all the other things about braces.
I'LL RATE FIVES! (link)
They will probably hurt for a couple of days because your teeth aren't used to having something be so tight on them. I stuck to milkshakes, pudding, and jello for the first couple of days. Don't worry too much about what colors to get--by the end of your time with braces, you'll be sick of picking them out:-)

hope I helped yah!


I'm getting braces in the beginning of October and want to know about teeth whitening. Should I do it now? During Braces or when I get my braces off? (link)
Don't do it while you've got your braces on!! I almost did that, and they told me that there would be marks from where I whitened my teeth and where the brackets were guled to them. So wait a couple more weeks, then try something...I know that Crest Whitestrips work pretty good, even though they taste crappy and you can't talk while you've got them in:-)

hope I helped!


hey...well within the last year i have become christian. but lately i have been having my doubts. i have depression, and have had it for about 2 years now. i pray so much but i dont seem to be making any progress to becoming happier. i dont understand why my prayers arent getting answered. (link)
Hi!! Maybe your prayers are getting answered, just not the way you want them too...I know that sounds weird, but God knows what he's doing (that has been SO hard for me to learn, I'm still working on it...). Let me share some lyrics with you (believe it or not, they're from a country song...Unanswered Prayers by Garth Brooks)

"Sometimes I thank God for unanswered prayers
Remember when you're talkin' to the man upstairs
That just because he doesn't answer doesn't mean he don't care
Some of God's greatest gifts are unanswered prayers"

Keep praying, don't give up...things will get better...Your faith is getting tested, stay strong!!

hope I helped yah!



Ok...I have had this feeling that I am missing something. And I know what it is. God. I want him in my life. I Just dont know how to do it. I have to admit that the thought of someone loving you unconditionally is a little scary. I know that this is what I want and need in my life, but I'm so scared to ask to be saved. Can anyone help me?
(link)
Hey! You're right...getting saved is pretty scary, but it's good that you've figured out what you're missing and am wanting to have God in your life...And like they said, pray that prayer ((and mean it!)), and you'll be saved...pretty easy, huh? Try to find yourself a good youth group to get involved with, ask around your school to see where your friends go...

Welcome to the family! ( :-) )
