theres this girl kim who was my friend, and i made fun (joking) of her for talking on the phone alot and now she hasn't talked to me in 7 days even though i try and say hi. then also my other friends wont be mean her but they would chastise me if was giving them all the silent treatment. should I expect that my friends should also not talk to her because she wont talk to me? also what should i do to be friends with her again? thanks

Grow up, and handle this yourself.
You don't make fun of friends for one, unless it's to them personally and they know you are being sarcastic. When you make fun of a friend to others behind that friend's back then it isn't making fun of them but talking sh*t about them.
Talk to your friend next chance you get and tell her you meant no harm and was just joking in a loving way about her talking on the phone alot, and thought it was cute that she enjoyed talking on the phone alot-- and even that she might be good at that kind of job, like a receptionist, telemarketer, etc. someday and it's a quality, not a liability.
